Filled with doubt, I hurriedly returned to my parents' house.

Before even getting out of the car, I saw several luxury cars parked in the parking spaces outside the courtyard wall. Among them, the black Hongqi L5 was the most eye-catching. This is a top-tier luxury car in China, and it's not something you can buy just because you have money.

Looking at the license plate starting with "京A" and containing five consecutive 8s, I thought for a moment before realizing that it was my grandfather's car.

Since my rebirth, I haven't seen him yet. He didn't even show up at my cousin's funeral.

My grandfather went into politics before retiring, and rose to the rank of vice-national leader, holding a high position of power.

As far as I can remember, he never interfered in my family's affairs because my father wasn't favored by him. In my past life, Fu Yanshen caused my family to go bankrupt, and he didn't even intervene.

He came to my house today, it must be because Beichen's crush on me has brought shame to the family, which is why he interfered.

Just as I was about to enter my house, I saw a group of people filing out of the gate of the Chinese-style villa.

The elderly man at the head of the group was my grandfather.

Even though he was over seventy years old, he was still tall and upright, like an ancient pine tree. His steps were steady and powerful, and his imposing presence made people dare not underestimate or neglect him in the slightest.

"grandfather."

I called out respectfully.

The old man's eyes were deep and bright, revealing a wisdom and composure that came from years of experience, as he calmly observed me.

"This girl has been a beauty since she was little, and everyone likes her. Let's continue to raise her." He turned to his respectful father beside him and gave him a deep, solemn instruction.

Dad nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Listening to Grandpa's words, my blood seemed to freeze, and I stood there stiff and cold, like an ice sculpture.

I was still standing there, stunned, until my parents came back after seeing my grandfather and uncles off.

"Dad, Mom, what's going on? Saying I was adopted is just a public relations tactic, right?" I asked in a trembling voice.

My father looked at me with a dazed and melancholy gaze, as if revealing a deep sadness.

His thin lips parted slightly, his Adam's apple bobbed, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

He finally shook his head and went inside.

“Qiaoqiao…” My mother walked up to me, looked up, her eyes red and swollen with tears, her voice hoarse.

She pulled me into the house.

“…Your brother likes you, and I felt something was off. How could a younger brother like his own sister? It’s not allowed physiologically or ethically, so I became suspicious and had DNA tests done on all four of you…”

She talked as she walked.

"The results show that you are not related to any of the three of us by blood!" My mother held my cold hands tightly, looked at me, tears streaming down her face, her voice filled with uncontrollable sorrow.

Hearing her words, I felt as if I had been struck by a blunt object, and my body swayed.

“I don’t know where things went wrong. Maybe the hospital made a mistake when you were born…” Mom said again, crying, while gently stroking my arm.

“I publicly stated that you were adopted, and that Beichen had always known… It was your grandfather’s idea, and also to salvage the reputation of our Sheng family.” She wiped away her tears and continued.

"Qiaoqiao, Mom knows you're very sad right now, and your dad and I are even sadder. You've always been the apple of our eye... Don't worry, Mom and Dad will still love you as our own daughter as always."

After my mother finished speaking, she hugged me tightly.

Her embrace was warm and strong, carrying a faint, elegant feminine fragrance. She patted my back incessantly, comforting me.

My heart, however, felt like an ice cave, empty and cold.

I am not my parents' biological daughter... I was switched at birth at the hospital... I am not the real eldest daughter of the Sheng family...

Warm tears welled up in my eyes and rolled down my cheeks, while icy tears trickled down my neck.

"How...how could this happen?" I asked, sobbing, my forehead pressed against my mother's shoulder. "Mom, I don't believe it...Could the testing agency have made a mistake? They must have made a mistake, right?"

I straightened up, looking at my mother through blurry vision, a glimmer of hope in my heart.

"Qiaoqiao, Mom also hopes it's a mistake... but all three institutions gave the same result... No wonder Beichen likes you, it turns out you're not related by blood!"

Listening to my mother's words, I was plunged into despair once again.

I was wondering before why Beichen would like me, his own sister.

turn out to be……

"Qiaoqiao, Mommy's going to answer this phone. Don't be too sad. You'll always be Mommy and Daddy's precious daughter. Don't be sad... Be good, nothing will change." Mommy gently rubbed my cheek with her soft palm, comforting me in a tender tone.

Nothing will change, will it?

Now, the entire internet knows I'm a fake heiress.

The Beijing social circle must be in an uproar. All those young masters and princesses I've befriended who fawn over me now know I was adopted by the Sheng family...

I stood in the large living room, clutching several DNA test reports tightly in my hand.

Looking at the test results above, I still can't believe it.

In my past life, no one told me until my death that I was a fake heiress who was switched at birth.

Why did I become a fake heiress in this life?

I looked up helplessly at the direction of the second floor.

Just now, my dad didn't say a word to me... Does he dislike me because I'm not his biological daughter?

I started walking towards the stairwell to find my dad, but after a couple of steps I turned around, ran out of the villa, and got into my sports car.

...

The sports car sped along the elevated highway as the sun set.

My phone on the stand rang again; it was Luo Luo calling once more. I wasn't in the mood to answer her call. The thought of Qin Lulu and those socialites laughing at me made me feel incredibly uncomfortable.

Before Luo Luo could hang up, Ji Yan called again.
