Chapter 61: The Difference is Apparent

his remaining life to you isn't an unreasonable request.The millstone helped smooth out the cause and effect of things."Well, when you put it that way, I feel even less guilty."The next day, Lianyi c..."Because she is a beneficiary, she can be said to be the ultimate winner in the whole event."

Wu Lianyi smiled and said.

"But this is not her fault!"

“Indeed, but as a daughter, she didn't even say a word to help her own parents. It shows she is a cold and selfish person. She even hid abroad. Although it's not wrong for her to avoid it, Zhao Fenglin is so shrewd that he can definitely see through her facade.”

Zhao Fenglin did not pass on the Zhao Group to Zhao Qianrou, but instead to his younger brother Zhao Fengxu, who is also Zhao Ziyong's father. This also has a compensatory meaning, after all, Zhao Ziyong's accident had something to do with him to some extent.

Zhao Xianrou was merely a shareholder who claimed her dividends. When she attempted to seize power, it was revealed that she was not Zhao Fenglin's biological daughter.

After hearing the communicator's words, Wu Lianyi raised an eyebrow and smiled. It seemed that Zhao Xianrou wasn't a harmless little white rabbit after all. She was very much looking forward to meeting the other party.

After returning home, Wu Lianyi was warmly received by the family of three.

"Dad, this is the wine I bought for you! Mom, this is the silk scarf I bought for you! Little brother, this is the new gaming console I got for you, but you can only play it on weekends and after finishing your homework."

Wu Lianyi passed things one by one to the three people. Only Wu Jinyi's gift was just glanced at by her, and then it was taken back as it was. The other party was so anxious that he scratched his ears and cheeks.

"Sis, don't do that!"

"Tch, who let you lack self-reliance!"

Wu Lianyi spoke directly.

"Listen to your sister, finish your homework before playing. You still have the provincial math competition to prepare for, where do you have time to play games"

Wan Gui-fen immediately spoke, then touched the colorful silk scarf in her hand, and the corners of her eyes crinkled with a smile. Wu Yong looked at the bottle of wine, and a smile appeared on his face. Only Wu Junyi's face was sour.

After the excitement, Wan Guifen asked:

"Ripples, did you buy these things, or did Mr. Zhao and the others buy them"

"It was their money, and I chose the things. After all, I know your preferences."

Wu Lianyi spoke directly.

"This is too wasteful, isn't it"

Wu Yong said.

"No, they raised me so well, this is their way of showing gratitude!"

Wu Lianyi directly fooled.

The couple looked at each other, their eyes filled with satisfaction. After all, their adopted daughter was more on their side.

For a period of time, Zhao Fenglin and Zhou Mengyu would visit Lianyi whenever they had the opportunity, hoping to quickly get closer.

While Wu Lianyi remained the same as always, except for attending school, going home, encouraging her younger brother to study, and occasionally beating him up, she also made time to meet with her biological parents. They weren't particularly close, but they were also not completely strangers.

During this time, Wu Yong's mother heard the news and made a special trip to visit. She had a conversation with Lianyi and confirmed that her adopted granddaughter wouldn't be taken advantage of. She temporarily moved in with Wu Yong so she could see her biological granddaughter.

Before the start of school, Zhao Xianrou returned to Shanghai and then went straight to her mother's hometown. After learning the truth, she was stunned in place. She had never thought about the fact that she was not a daughter of the Zhao family. At this time, she looked bewildered, wronged, and panicked, and she directly threw herself into Zhou Mengyu's arms and started to cry.

Looking at her adopted daughter crying with grievance, Zhou Mengyu also had a helpless expression. After all, she had been premature and delivered by cesarean section, her body was over-exhausted, and for so many years, she only had this one daughter. She was raised with pampering since childhood and was relatively delicate in her daily life. Upon hearing this news suddenly, it was certainly unacceptable to her.

Meanwhile, Zhao Fenglin's eyes narrowed slightly. He saw the performances of both children clearly and knew who was superior. Perhaps because he knew that the girl in front of him wasn't his biological daughter, the filter of familial love had disappeared automatically. The panic in her delicate eyes was evident to him.

After soothing the delicate fibers, Zhou Mengyu continued:

"Fian, don't cry. This isn't your fault, and it's not Lian Yi's fault either. Both families know about this now, and your birth parents also want to see you."

Zhou Mengyu's tears, which had just stopped, immediately welled up again. Her voice was hoarse as she said:

"Mom, don't you want me anymore Although they are my biological parents, I've never spent a day with them. I'm scared."

Then he pounced into Zhou Mengyu's arms and continued to cry.

Zhou Mengyu and Zhao Fenglin glanced at each other, and they didn't mention the matter of letting Lianrou meet her biological parents again. After all, they also had to consider the child's feelings. At this time, the two thought of Lianyi's words at the same time, looking at Lianrou's reaction, they knew that the two sides were impossible to get along peacefully.

After calming down, the two sat together again and talked about it.

"Xiāorou was so resistant to seeing them. If her biological parents knew, they would be heartbroken."

Zhou Mengyu is still very sentimental.

She needs a process to accept it too, Lianyi was very resistant to us at first, she even walked away in front of us.

Zhao Fenglin said in a low voice.

"I know, they are still children and don't understand our parents' hearts. They are all flesh and blood to us."

Zhou Mengyu sighed and said.

"This side's ripples did a great job. She didn't hear about our conditions being so good and immediately recognized us, but instead she considered the situation of both our families and the awkward predicament she and Xianrou were in. Up to now, she hasn't suggested returning to Modu with us. Xianrou..."

Zhao Fenglin shook his head, leaving his last words unsaid. He was obviously not satisfied with Xianrou's performance.

And the conversation between the two of them seeped through the crack in the door and into Zhao Xianrou's ears. She wanted to hear her parents' opinions, so she returned to the bedroom of her hotel suite, pretending to be tired from crying.

When she learned about her biological parents' family, she was afraid first. She didn't want to give up everything she had, and it wasn't her fault anyway. Why should she have to bear the price for their mistakes

But now that she heard what her parents said, she clenched her fists. After all, comparison is needed to determine who is superior. No matter what, they are still her biological parents. It would be too much if she completely ignored them.

And she didn't want to lose to that stranger, Ripple. She was afraid that the other party was more talented than her, and that the other party had the guilt of her parents, sooner or later she would be left out. She sat back on the edge of the bed, her eyes flickering, half an hour later, she opened the door and went to the small living room.

"Mom and Dad, I'm so sorry! I wasn't in a good mood just now and made you worry."

"Poor child, we understand how you feel."

Zhou Mengyu pulled her slender hand, then smoothed out her long hair.

“I know this isn't our fault, and I don't know if Ripple feels resentment towards me. After all, everything I have now was originally hers. I stole her life, so I'm a little afraid and ashamed.”

She softly lowered her eyes and explained.

"You don't have to think too much about it. Ripples doesn't hold any resentment towards you, and considering your feelings and position, she won't be returning to the Demon Capital with us for now. We even offered to help her transfer schools, but she declined."

Zhao Fenglin said in a low voice.

“Huh Really”y should stay away from Du Li from now on. They don't want to become her stepping stones, nor do they want to be used by her. Look, even the Sect Leader's daughter was forced to self-disable her culti...
