Part 4
Then came Zhang Qing. Her voice was uncomfortably gentle. “Xiao Yue, we aren’t chasing you away. We just want to bring Zhenzhen back sooner…”
As she spoke, she lowered her head and wiped her eyes, appearing very heartbroken.
Tang Yuqiâs voice was cold. “Zhenzhen is indeed my biological sister.”
It was as if he was responding to what happened in the hospital earlier.
âShe really is my biological sister, so I treat her better than you.
Tang Yue calmly watched the familyâs performance, then nodded. “I understand. I will cooperate with your arrangements.”
No one expected this attitude. Not sad, not upset, seemingly not surprised at all. Calm to the point of being frightening.
The Tang family was stunned for a moment. Before they could get suspicious, Tang Yue continued, “Thank you. The doubts I’ve had for yearsâwhy you didn’t like me, why you always ignored meâfinally have an answer.”
“You aren’t my real family, so the grievances and sadness I felt before weren’t real either. That’s good.”
Early the next morning, the Tang family’s convoy drove mightily toward the Yu family’s home.
A helicopter carried a professional cameraman, filming the entire journey and syncing the footage online.
It seemed they wanted as many people as possible to witness this touching scene of bringing the true heiress home.
Countless netizens reveled in the livestream.
“Boohoo, I’m witnessing the real deal!”
“This is reality! In novels, the real daughter is usually brought back casually and then hated by the family while everyone loves the fake one…”
“Yu Zhen is really pretty and has great temperament. Turns out a phoenix won’t turn into a chicken even if it falls into a chicken coop!”
“Hey, why drag one down to praise the other? Yu Zhen is great, but there’s no need to call the Yu family a chicken coop. Their conditions aren’t as good as the Tangs, but they treated their daughter amazingly well. Saying they gave their all isn’t an exaggeration! On the other hand, regarding Tang Yue, I heard she hasn’t had a very good life these years…”
“That’s funny. How could anyone have a bad life in a wealthy family like the Tangs? To be blunt, even at her worst, she was better off than being pampered in the Yu family!”
…
Comments scrolled rapidly in the livestream, so fast the screen lagged.
Tang Yue glanced at it a few times, then turned off the screen.
Soon, the convoy arrived near the Yu family home.
After fermenting overnight, there were too many onlookers. The surrounding roads were completely blocked, and police were everywhere maintaining order.
The convoy couldn’t get in and had to stop.
A flash of displeasure crossed Tang Mingquanâs face before he quickly hid it, reverting to the image of a benevolent father.
The driver opened the door, and he and Zhang Qing got out.
Then came Tang Yuqi.
Tang Yue got out last.
In an instant, almost everyone’s eyes focused on her.
People stared and pointed.
Tang Yue recalled Luo Wenshuâs wordsâ
“The moment you learn the truth and believe it from the bottom of your heart, the Tang family’s fate is sealed. So you don’t need to do anything. Just watch quietly.”
Her face was expressionless, her gaze calm, as she walked at the very back.
They soon arrived at the Yu residence.
From a distance, she could see Yu’s parents with swollen, red eyes. They had clearly been crying for a long time.
Their expressions were complex. After all, Yu Zhen was the daughter they had raised with all their hearts for twenty years. Even knowing she was switched, it was hard to let go.
At the same time, they were anxious. Their biological child was coming back. They had heard from Yu Fei last night that she was a smart, beautiful, brave, and kind girl.
Would she like this home? Would she like them?
She should, right…
In contrast, Yu Zhen was dressed up meticulously from head to toe, looking outward periodically.
Everything was captured by the camera and synced online.
“To be honest, Tang Yue is so calm. Yu Zhen looks impatient. It feels a bit off!”
“Am I the only one feeling sorry for the Yu parents? Their expressions make me so sad.”
“I think Yu Zhen is being realistic. If it were me, suddenly finding out I was a rich heiress, I’d be even more excited than her. After all, returning to the Tang family means never worrying about money again!”
…
The two families finally met.
After simple greetings, everything proceeded like a handover ceremony.
Yu Zhen walked toward the Tang family, smiling generously and greeting them one by one.
“Dad, Mom, Brother…”
Tang Yue returned to the Yu family. Compared to Yu Zhen, she seemed a bit cautious. Looking at her biological parents, she hesitated for a long time before tentatively calling out, “Dad, Mom…”
In her twenty years at the Tang family, Tang Yue longed for family affection but never tasted it.
Now returning to her biological parents, even knowing they were good people who treated Yu Zhen well, Tang Yue was anxious, afraid they wouldn’t like her.
People become exceptionally cautious after being hurt.
This was Tang Yueâs state.
At this moment, the camera and the crowd’s attention were on the Tang family. After all, people are always more interested in the wealthy.
Almost no one paid attention to the Yu side.
The Yu parents didn’t like being watched anyway. They held Tang Yueâs hands, observing her through teary eyes, and carefully reached out to touch her.
“Good child, you’re home!”
One sentence shattered the calm expression Tang Yue had maintained since the previous night.
A High Vantage Point Nearby.
Mr. Fu watched as the children returned to their rightful places and the Tang family convoy gradually drove away. He was just about to breathe a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, a voice asked from behind, “Do you feel relieved?”
Startled, Mr. Fu whipped around. Standing on the rooftop was a young woman, twenty-four or twenty-five years old. She had a gentle and beautiful face, but her eyesâcalm as still waterâchanged her entire aura.
“Who are you?” Mr. Fu demanded.
“Me?” Luo Wenshu smiled. “I’m a spectator.”
Mr. Fu didn’t relax his guard; instead, he became more wary. “What did you mean by what you just said?”
“Literally what I said,” Luo Wenshu kept smiling. “Deceiving the heavens, substituting the fake for the real. For twenty whole years, no one noticed, and finally, everything was smoothly put back in place…”
“Watching the dust settle, do you feel relieved?”
Mr. Fuâs face instantly turned pale. In his previously calm eyes, panic spread. “How do you know? Who exactly are you?”
“No rush on that question. Why don’t we watch the livestream first?” Luo Wenshu walked over as she spoke.
Clearly just an ordinary person with no cultivation, yet Mr. Fu felt an unprecedented, terrifying pressure weighing him down, leaving him breathless. He couldn’t even form the thought to attack.
He could only watch helplessly as she walked up to him, raised her phone, and shared the screen with him.
It was the livestream arranged by the Tang family. In the footage, the Tang convoy, having picked up the true heiress, was on its return journey.
Luo Wenshu asked from the side, “Do you think they are rejoicing right now because they successfully deceived the world, or are they unwilling to accept that the family can no longer rise to the next level because they lost the tool that gathered fortune and luck?”
Mr. Fuâs expression grew even uglier.
“But no matter what they’re thinking, it doesn’t matter anymore. After stealing luck for twenty years, no one can survive the backlash of the rules.”
Luo Wenshu smiled and asked Mr. Fu, “Guess how they will die?”
In the livestream, there was a truck loaded with rusty steel pipes in front of the Tang family’s convoy.
Inside the stretch limo, Yu Zhen was asking Tang Yuqi, “Brother, when did you know…”
Before she could finish, the speeding vehicle suddenly braked hard.
Yu Zhen instinctively looked forward to seeing what had happened.
What met her eyes was a scene of countless rusty steel pipes piercing through the windshield, penetrating the car body, and rushing toward them.
