Reborn as a True Heiress and Becomes a Boss

Chapter 98 She is not innocent
Gu Yuanhong, who was suddenly called out, was stunned for a moment. After hesitating for a moment, he nodded. "She was just a baby back then. Even if the babies were switched at birth, it was the adults' negligence. She and you are both innocent."

Yang Nianqing sneered, "Look, based on this alone, we can't possibly be family. I can't possibly be your sister! Nor can I possibly be your cousin!"

Yang Nianqing's gaze suddenly turned to one of intense hatred. "In my eyes, she is not innocent. All my injuries and pain are thanks to her."

Xu Anyu was speechless. Looking at her like this, he felt a pang of heartache. Why would she think that way?

Fan Ruichen gently took her hand. Feeling Fan Ruichen's touch, Yang Nianqing was able to pull herself out of her past life's emotions a little.

It's not that she doesn't resent it; even today, thinking about her past life makes her feel so regretful that she can hardly breathe. She didn't seek revenge in this life simply because she didn't want to be stuck in her past life and unable to escape. She wanted to get rid of those things from her past life and live a good life with Fan Ruichen. But these people keep reminding her of how cowardly she was in her past life.

“Xu Daiqing is not innocent. She has been innocent ever since her mother used her to exchange for me!” Yang Nianqing said coldly.

Like a bolt from the blue, Xu Anyu and Gu Yuanhong were horrified. Their own sister had been deliberately switched at birth! And she was Xu Daiqing's biological mother.

Kong Tingting and the others were also shocked. Are the scandals in wealthy families really this big?

"My first half of life was filled with loneliness and misery, all thanks to her mother, all thanks to her!" Yang Nianqing hated the Yang family and also hated Xu Daiqing. Thinking back to her past life, how foolish she was to jump into the river and commit suicide the very day she discovered the truth, while Xu Daiqing and the rest of the Yang family lived carefree lives. If it weren't for the plan to exchange Xu Daiqing for a life of luxury in the Xu family, she wouldn't have fallen into Cheng Ying's hands. If it weren't for the plan to keep Xu Daiqing from being exposed, she wouldn't have been disfigured. Xu Daiqing knew the truth, but to avoid revealing that she wasn't a member of the Xu family, she maintained secret contact with the Yang family. If Xu Daiqing had even a shred of compassion, she wouldn't have lived such a life in her past life.

"Since you despise me, despise me for not being as good as Xu Daiqing, whom your Xu and Gu families have raised with such care, you shouldn't have said these things today that sound like you want to acknowledge me. I don't care about your Xu family, I don't care about your Gu family! Who cares, who cares!" Yang Nianqing said sharply.

She took a deep breath and pulled Fan Ruichen away.

Seeing this, Xu Anyu quickly chased after them, "Wait a minute, there must be some misunderstanding!" They had only just discovered that Xu Daiqing was not related to them by blood, and they had only just discovered that she was his older sister. They hadn't even gotten to know each other yet, so how could he have shown any disdain? When had their family ever said anything about disdain?

"Shut up!" Yang Nianqing said impatiently. She frowned and turned around to see that Xu Anyu had caught up and Gu Yuanhong was about to catch up as well. Yang Nianqing flicked her hand and sent out several immobilization talismans, which quickly stuck to the bodies of the group, including Kong Tingting and Sun Sheng.

None of them could move. Watching Yang Nianqing and the other person's retreating figures, Xu Anyu shouted unwillingly, "Come back! I'll explain! There must be some misunderstanding! Come back!"

However, Yang Nianqing and the other person disappeared from his sight in a short while, and Xu Anyu stopped shouting in disappointment.

"Uh, what do we do now? We're not going to be stuck here forever, are we? We'll starve to death!" Kong Tingting said, still whispering to Sun Sheng. She was already feeling a bit hungry.

Having eaten such a big piece of gossip, Sun Sheng didn't feel hungry at all. Hearing his wife's words, Sun Sheng rolled his eyes and glanced at Xu Anyu and Gu Yuanhong in front of him. He muttered to Kong Tingting in a low voice, "Anyu and the major are in a bad mood right now, so don't talk too much nonsense."

"Oh." Kong Tingting silently shut her mouth.

Gao Jing and Zhong Jin glanced at the couple speechlessly. "You both know this is obvious." In the dead of night, with only the bright moon hanging high in the sky, several thuds suddenly echoed from a cemetery on the outskirts of Jiangcheng.

Xu Anyu and the others lay exhausted on the ground. It was already past midnight. They had been immobilized by the talisman for four hours, and now they felt sore backs and uncomfortable all over.

Xu Anyu lay on the ground looking at the night sky and said dejectedly, "Brother, now I don't know how to face Xu Daiqing and my sister anymore. My sister hates us so much."

Gu Yuanhong sighed. He felt the same way. Moreover, his older sister probably disliked him, her cousin, even more. After all, it was he who said that Xu Daiqing was innocent that made her get agitated.

"What do we do now?" Xu Anyu asked helplessly.

Gu Yuanhong pondered for a moment and said, "Let's go back and tell Grandpa and the others first, and keep it from Aunt for now."

Xu Anyu nodded. After resting for a while, everyone sat up. Only then did they notice that the talisman on Bei Rou's body was still attached. The talismans on their bodies would fall off and turn to ashes on their own after a certain time, but the one on Bei Rou's body was obviously more effective. Xu Anyu's older sister really disliked Bei Rou.

Regardless, they are still colleagues. Gu Yuanhong asked Kong Tingting to help her tear off the talisman. Kong Tingting pursed her lips. She actually wanted this woman to be immobilized for a longer time!
The talisman on Bei Rou's body came off easily. Exhausted, she knelt on the ground and rested for a moment. Then, she circulated her spiritual energy, sensing the changes in her body. After a while, she opened her eyes, clenched her fist, and slammed it hard on the ground. Her cultivation had dropped to the mid-stage of the Human Master realm! Damn it! It's all that woman's fault! If she hadn't tried to help Hei Feng break the contract, her cultivation wouldn't have dropped like this! She wouldn't let her get away with it.

Ignoring Kong Tingting and the others' shouts, Bei Rou left the place on her own, determined to avenge herself!

"What kind of person is she! No wonder people say she's ungrateful! She left without even saying goodbye," Kong Tingting said, pouting.

“That’s right,” Sun Sheng agreed.

Watching Bei Rou's retreating figure, Gu Yuanhong pondered to himself that he needed to thoroughly review the family precepts when he got back.

Yang Nianqing and Fan Ruichen returned to the hotel. She took a pillow and gently placed the black cat on it. The black cat was lifeless and badly injured. However, it had already taken one of her pills. If it took another, its meridians would not be able to withstand the new medicinal power given its current physical condition.

"Ah Chen, this cat can't take any more of my pills. Its body can't handle it. I'm afraid it will die if this continues. Could you go and buy some bandaging and treatment supplies? I'll use my spiritual power to heal it first." Yang Nianqing said with a frown. Her spiritual power could have a slight healing effect, but it couldn't bring the dead back to life. The wound on the black cat's neck was so deep that the bone was visible. If it weren't a demon beast, it would probably be dead by now.

Fan Ruichen nodded and said, "I'll go right now." With that, he hurried out the door.

Yang Nianqing began to release her spiritual energy to heal the black cat's neck. The warm spiritual energy sprayed onto the cat's neck, making it feel itchy, and the wound seemed to hurt less. The black cat straightened up, tilted its head back, and waved its two paws together up and down, as if thanking Yang Nianqing. It then let out a meow with its eyes crinkling.

Yang Nianqing chuckled and said, "He really does resemble a person."
