Zhu Xiangxiang bitterly smiled: What’s the point of saying this now? I can never go back to the Zhus. Shaodan, please take my place and be filial to our mother and grandmother.”

“No way, your adoptive father is not a good person. How could anything good come from staying with him?”

“But the Zhu family has Zhu Mingjing, and I can’t go back, do you understand?” Zhu Xiangxiang’s tears flowed down as she spoke, looking pitiful.

“When she came back, my mom and grandma were bewitched by her and no longer liked me. She even framed me for poisoning my mom’s supplements. No matter how I tried to explain, my mom wouldn’t believe me anymore. My mom was so good to me, how could I possibly poison her? Shaodan, do you believe

Zhu Xiangxiang gazed teary-eyed at Zhu Shaodan, pleading so heartbreakingly.

Zhu Shaodan gritted his teeth and said, “I didn’t expect her to be so vicious. I underestimated her.”

“There’s one more thing, Shaodan. I don’t know whether I should tell you.” Zhu Xiangxiang’s expression was conflicted.

Zhu Shaodan said, “Just tell me. No matter what grievance you have, your brother will stand by you.”

Zhu Xiangxiang bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, looked around, and lowered her voice: “I suspect that Zhu Mingjing is not the real daughter of the Zhu family.”

She didn’t notice the fleeting darkness that flashed in the bottom of the teenager’s eyes in front of her.

Zhu Shaodan narrowed his eyes and asked, “Why would you suspect her like this?”

For some reason, Zhu Xiangxiang suddenly felt that Zhu Shaodan had changed a bit. Although he was still the same person, having not seen him for more than two months, Zhu Shaodan had indeed changed quite a bit.

He had become more unpredictable, even more difficult for her to read.

Perhaps it was because he had grown up. Zhu Xiangxiang didn’t pay too much attention and skipped this thought, saying, “Actually, I’ve been suspecting for quite some time and secretly had a private detective investigate. Finally, there was some progress. But after I left the Zhu family, I had no money and couldn’t continue the investigation. Shaodan, are you willing to believe me? My suspicions aren’t just out of hatred for Zhu Mingjing. I don’t want my mom and grandma to be deceived and let the real Ms. Zhu suffer unjustly.” Zhu Xiangxiang’s gaze was very sincere, looking quite touching.

Zhu Shaodan nodded, “Of course I believe you. This Zhu Mingjing, an illegitimate child from who knows where, is actually impersonating my sister! She even drove you out of the Zhu family. Sooner or later, I will skin her alive to seek justice for you.”

Zhu Xiangxiang looked at him gratefully, “Shaodan, I knew you wouldn’t let me down. But we need to plan carefully, Zhu Mingjing is very cunning and cautious. To prevent her from finding out, you must not act rashly. Don’t tell anyone about this, and we’ll gradually make our move, understand?” “If Zhu Mingjing is an imposter, then who is my real sister?” Zhu Shaodan frowned, the situation getting more complicated.

“I suspect it might be her senior, Ming Xin, who has been missing for a long time. I don’t know if Zhu Mingjing killed or hid her. As long as we find her, the truth will come to light.” Zhu Xiangxiang said confidently.

She had been pondering the causes and consequences of this matter, deducing many situations, and finally arrived at the most likely conclusion.

All the clues lay with the missing Ming Xin. As long as they found her, all the issues would be solved.

Zhu Shaodan nodded, “I understand. Leave this matter to me. I will skin that vixen alive and let the world despise her.”

“Sis, please be patient. After dealing with Zhu Mingjing, I’ll come and take you home.”

Zhu Xiangxiang smiled, “Alright, Shaodan. You must take good care of yourself. Don’t confront her directly. Patience is key. Once we find Ming Xin, she will have no excuses left.”

Whether Ming Xin was the real Ms. Zhu or not, there was still no definitive evidence. But as long as Zhu Shaodan believed, that was enough.

Watching Zhu Shaodan’s hurried departure on his motorcycle, Zhu Xiangxiang hooked her lips.

“Turns out Zhu Mingjing is the one who usurped the position.” Tang Wan walked over, smiling.

Zhu Xiangxiang was startled and looked at her warily, “You eavesdropped on

Tang Wan shook her head with a smile, “How could eavesdropping be possible in broad daylight? I overheard it accidentally. Don’t worry, I’ll keep your secret.”

Zhu Xiangxiang frowned, “Why should I trust you?”

“Ms. Zhu, don’t worry. We have a common enemy. What do you think, would I help you keep the secret?”Zhu Xiangxiang looked her up and down: “You?”

There was a hint of disdain in her tone, as Tang Wan was not pretty and her family background was even worse. So she held a grudge against Zhu Mingjing? Even if she hated Zhu Mingjing, Zhu Xiangxiang couldn’t help but want to say: Are you worthy?

However, Tang Wan didn’t get angry and just smiled, “In fact, the evidence is right beside you. Your grandmother knew exactly what characteristics the real daughter she took away had.”

Zhu Xiangxiang suddenly came to a realization, “Yes, why didn’t I think about that?”

She hurried back home and found Zhao Xiaohui, asking her to call her grandmother, as she had something very important to ask her.

Zhao’s grandmother had fallen ill two years ago, and her health was getting worse day by day. It was very likely she wouldn’t survive the winter.

Having become somewhat senile, the old woman would always answer any question with, “Xiaohui, you’re back.”

Zhu Xiangxiang asked patiently, “Grandma, do you remember me? You took me away when I was born, fearing that I would hinder my mom, and sent me to Jiyue Temple. Do you remember any birthmarks on my body?”

Zhao Xiaohui, who was listening at the side, was a little bewildered and subconsciously gripped her apron.

“What did you say? Xiaohui, have you found the child? The child is so unfortunate, how could you bear to…?”

Zhao Xiaohui suddenly hung up the phone.

Zhu Xiangxiang looked at her displeased, “What are you doing? She was about to tell.”

“Your grandmother is in poor health and can’t talk much. Just ask me if you want to know something. When she knew that she was getting confused, she told me everything about that time in detail.”

Zhu Xiangxiang said, “When my grandmother took away the child, what physical characteristics did she have? Don’t miss out on any small details.”

Zhao Xiaohui didn’t know why she was asking this but after a moment of thought, she said, “Your grandmother said that she wanted to make it easiel find the child in the future, so she carefully examined the child’s whole bod) The child had a mole behind her right ear. The mole will never disappear, it will only grow bigger over time.”

But who would have thought that the child had already been switched at that time. Her own daughter had enjoyed the fortune reserved for others for sixteen years due to a twist of fate.

“It’s Ms. Zhu who is unlucky.” Zhao Xiaohui pursed her lips and said.

A mole behind the right ear, Zhu Xiangxiang suddenly smiled.

On the first day Zhu Mingjing returned to the Zhus, she was in the bedroom, her bare back facing Zhu Xiangxiang.

She remembered very clearly that Zhu Mingjing had no impurities on her neck or face, not even a mole behind her ear.

Zhu Mingjing, you brought this on yourself.

Tang Wan stood at the door, exchanging a smile with Zhu Xiangxiang.

With a “ding,” a phone suddenly rang.

Ran Tengxiao put down the chess piece and picked up the phone to look at it.

He suddenly chuckled.

Lin Feng across from him asked curiously, “Master Xiao, what’s the good news?”

Ran Tengxiao held a black chess piece between his fingers and placed it on the board: “You lost.”

Lin Feng raised his eyebrows in surprise: “That was careless of me.”

Ran Tengxiao leisurely took a sip of tea, “Planning before action is the way of chess..”
