ses' faces. Ripples' perceptiveness exceeded their expectations.Zhao Fenglin and the others finished asking their questions, then began to answer her inquiries:Wei Xinyi's family is one of the shareho...Zhao Xianrou lifted her head, though the joy in her eyes was fleeting, it was still clearly seen by the old fox Zhao Fenglin. He suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Zhao Xianrou also realized her gaffe and immediately adjusted her expression, explaining:

"Thank you, Ripple sister, for giving me time to buffer. I will adjust my attitude and return everything that originally belonged to her. It's just that I can't bear to part with mom and dad."

Toward the end, her eyes welled up again.

This time, Zhao Fenglin didn't say much. Zhou Mengyu patted her shoulder lightly and continued to comfort her:

"This is a huge impact not just for you and Ripple, but also for both families. Everyone needs time to buffer and digest. Someone else has already taken the first step, we can't fall too far behind. You are the daughter raised by the Zhao family, I believe in you."

Zhao Xiaorou heard this, blinked her eyes, concealing the frustration inside, then took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and said to the two:

"Mom and Dad, please don't worry, I know what to do, and I won't be worse than anyone else."

Although this sounds like encouragement to herself, it actually contains her disapproval and comparison of Wu Lianyi.

But Zhou Mengyu didn't say much, and Zhao Fenglin wouldn't point it out either.

Since you've already made up your mind, don't delay. I'll arrange for you to meet tomorrow. You have to return to Modu for school in two days. Don't let these things interfere with your studies.

Zhao Fenglin settled the matter with a single decisive blow.

"Well, I'll listen to Dad."

Zhao Xiaorou visibly let out a sigh of relief; at least she didn't have to stay in that cramped house and live with a bunch of strangers.

"Mom, when I first meet them, should we buy some gifts I still have some lucky money from the New Year, it should be enough to buy a gift for each of them. Can you help me brainstorm some ideas"

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Zhou Mengyu nodded and went out with Qian Rou, while Zhao Fenglin sent Xiao Han to the Wu family to inform them of this beforehand.

Among the Wu family members, only Wan Guifen was the happiest. Wu Yong's attitude was average, while Wu Jinyin was more curious, wondering what his elder sister was like. The most composed one was Wu Lianyi.

The time was set for noon the next day, and Wan Guifen had started preparing the previous night. She directed her family to clean the house, prepare food and drink, and have everyone dress in their best attire.

These things were all done by Wu Jia and his son, while Wu Lianyi just gave the three a somewhat hurt look and went into the room to close the door and look at the books.

"Guifen, that's enough. Don't you see how Lian'er's face has turned pale She stayed here for us and didn't go to Modu. How do you think she feels seeing you act like this"

Wan Guifen's face flashed a trace of unnaturalness after hearing this. She wanted to win over Lianyi while also letting her biological daughter continue to enjoy the best at the Zhao family. Moreover, she wanted her biological daughter to be drawn to her as well. After all, since she wasn't raised by her side, there was a lack of emotional foundation, so she wanted to leave a good impression on the other party and inevitably didn't consider Lianyi's feelings.

"I understand. It was my oversight. You guys go rest, I'll handle the rest."

"Junyi, go and see your elder sister!"

Wan Guifen immediately adjusted her expression, shooing the father and son away. She retreated to the kitchen alone and quietly prepared the ingredients for tomorrow's lunch.

"Sis, are you okay Mom didn't mean to."

Wu Junyi entered Lianyi's room and explained dryly that he had just seen his elder sister didn't seem so sad, she was brushing something on her notebook. He glanced at it and found it was a set of math test questions. Immediately changing the subject, he wailed:

"Big sister, what did I do wrong Just tell me and I'll fix it. Please don't torture me with math problems anymore!"

Wu Lianyi glanced at the other person and said flatly:

"You haven't done anything wrong, I'm accumulating capital for you so that in the future you can face your own sister head-on with confidence."

"What's the connection between this and doing exams"

Wu Junyi curled his lips.

"Of course, the only thing you have going for you now is your grades, isn't it In terms of upbringing, nurture, and the social circles you've been exposed to, you're miles behind your own sister!"

"I am the biological daughter of the Zhao family, they couldn't possibly mistreat me. But you have no blood relation to the Zhao family, even if I favor you and want to take care of you, shouldn't you have some capital This is your capital!"

Wu Lianyi's hands never stopped, and the words she uttered made Wu Jinyi, who had always been carefree and oblivious, fall into deep thought.

After all, this time going to the capital's Olympic Summer Camp, he also witnessed the prosperity of the capital. When he came into contact with the children in the capital, even a big guy like him felt that those children had a subtle sense of superiority when facing them. This is also the reason why he gritted his teeth and persisted even though he was being bullied by his older sister.

"Take this, submit it within an hour!"

Wu Lianyi directly threw the book to Wu Junyi, and in the other party's wailing, she stretched lazily and went back to sleep.

Wu Junyi could only accept the love of his elder sister. He bit his pen and began to struggle with the math problems.

On the other side, assistant Xiao Han rushed back the night before seeing the Wu family at Xianrou, bringing news that surprised both Zhao Fenglin and Zhou Mengyu.

When Xiao Han learned that Zhao Xianrou was also resting in the hotel, he invited the boss and his wife to his room and presented them with the latest materials.

"Boss, that nurse who quit really had problems. Rumor has it she married a wealthy husband, but actually her husband is just a deadbeat, he only looks good. She can wear gold and silver because she's rich herself, and her money came from the Feng family."

Because Fengjia gave me cash, it took me a while to check it, and I'm just back now.

"Was it Feng who instructed the nurse to switch the babies"

Zhou Mengyu asked hatefully.

"No, Fengjia had that nurse bring Miss Ripple out to hand her off to someone else. It's just that the nurse was timid and didn't dare do so, and besides, the boss's parents arrived in time, making her even more hesitant."

So she settled for second best, switching out the child. She fulfilled the Feng family's request, got paid, and didn't have to take on too much risk. It was a win-win situation.

Xiao Han listened to Zhao Fenglin's words, nodded and shook her head, and continued:

She said the child wasn't switched by her, she at most knew about it but didn't report it, letting the two families' children be swapped. She did nothing, only claiming to have switched them in order to get money from the Feng family.

"Who did that"

"It's Wan Guifen!"

"What"

"How could it be her Why would she do this"

Zhou Mengyu and Zhao Fenglin almost spoke at the same time.

"Boss, this is just one-sided words from the nurse, and we need to verify it. After all, Wan Guifen doesn't have a motive to do this, and perhaps the nurse is just trying to shirk responsibility."ace didn't slow down at all.Looking at the fields on both sides of the road, devoured by locusts, everyone felt a sense of sorrow. Along the way, they also saw beggars gathering in groups of three or...
