Chapter 74 If you climb up, I will recognize you as my mother!

When Ruan Yunheng squatted down to talk to Xu Anyu and comfort her, Xu Nianyi also arrived.

She glanced at Ruan Yunheng and Xu Anyu by the hot spring pool, and then her eyes fell on Xu Shu on the other side, whom Ruan Yunheng had not noticed at all.

Xu Nianyi was a little surprised.

Why did she follow here?

At this moment, Xu Shu was standing blankly by the hot spring pool, her face very pale, as if she was frightened.

She clasped her hands tightly in front of her, looking at a loss.

Xu Nianyi's gaze fell on her for a few seconds. Xu Shu noticed it and turned to look over.

Meeting Xu Nianyi's inquiring gaze, she became even more panicked, but Xu Nianyi had already looked away and looked at other girls.

Except for Xu Shu and Xu Anyu, everyone else was wearing a swimsuit.

At this moment, they all looked confused and strange, standing together looking at Ruan Yunheng and Xu Anyu.

Probably no one expected that Ruan Yunheng would be so nervous about Xu Anyu.

After all, in the circle of wealthy families, everyone knows how annoying Xu Anyu is. Doesn’t Ruan Yunheng hate her too?

At this moment, the person who had spoken rudely just now began to feel a little scared.

Xu Anyu is just a young lady of the Xu family. She does not hold power or take charge of affairs, and is not liked by the family because of her personality.

But Ruan Yunheng is different.

He is the real heir of the Ruan family.

If he really wanted to stand up for Xu Anyu, families like theirs could be crushed to death with just one finger!

What's more, there is Xu Nianyi...

Who doesn’t know the relationship between Xu Nianyi and Xie Yanwen?

If the Xie family and the Ruan family really want to pursue this, they will all be finished!

So, when Xu Nianyi looked over, several people quickly turned their eyes away and didn't dare to look at her.

However, Xu Nianyi also heard what was said when he followed in.

She roughly guessed who was the person who accidentally pushed Xu Anyu into the water.

Xu Nianyi thought about it and walked in front of Xu Shu.

Xu Shu probably didn't expect her to suddenly approach, and subconsciously took a step back. But then she immediately remembered that there was a hot spring pool behind her, so she didn't dare to move.

This was the first time Xu Nianyi met Xu Shu face to face.

She stood in front of Xu Shu, looking at her quietly and carefully.

I have to say that her appearance is indeed more inherited from Xu Shu. They look very similar. If they stand together, others would probably think they are sisters.

So, it would be easy for Xu Shu to imitate her.

Xu Nianyi had imagined many scenarios of meeting her mother, happy, sad, touching or angry.

But she never expected that when they were really standing face to face like this, she didn't have much emotion, but just calmly looked at a stranger who looked similar to her.

Yes, we were strangers originally.

Just like what Xie Yanwen said, they had never spent even a minute together. As for blood relationship, for Xu Nianyi, it was already separated by time and space.

So, after feeling nauseous yesterday, she completely let it go.

At this moment, facing Xu Shu, he could speak calmly: "Did you push her into the water?"

Xu Shu's eyelashes flickered, and she lowered her eyes in panic and shook her head: "No, I didn't mean to..."

"oh."

Xu Nianyi nodded, then suddenly raised his hand and pushed Xu Shu unexpectedly.

"ah--"

Screams accompanied the sound of falling into the water. Several girls by the pool looked over and opened their eyes in surprise.

Xu Shu had fallen into the hot spring and was now struggling in the water. She drank several mouthfuls of the water, which choked her and almost suffocated her. She finally managed to touch the stone steps with her hands and stood up.

Her hair and face were all wet. She looked up and looked in horror at Xu Nianyi who was squatting by the hot spring pool.

Xu Nianyi tilted her head with an innocent look in her eyes, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

Xu Shu's face turned pale and she bit her lips tightly.

At that moment, Xu Nianyi suddenly wondered if he would be struck by lightning.

She frowned, and her calm mood became irritable again.

Without saying anything more, he asked Xu Shu directly: "What did you say to her?"

Xu Shu's eyes were blank: "I don't know what you are talking about?"

Xu Nianyi ignored her pretense and answered for her: "You said she was dirty and you deliberately provoked her. Do you know what happened to her?"

“I, I didn’t…”

Xu Shu kept shaking her head, her eyes moist with water, pitiful and innocent, "I really bumped into her by accident."

Xu Nianyi turned his head to look at Ruan Yunheng and Xu Anyu.

She heard correctly. What Xu Anyu had just said was: "But they all said so. They all said I was dirty..."

This sentence may have been heard from someone before, but when she said it now, Xu Nianyi was more inclined to believe that she was stimulated by someone.

For example, last time at the amusement park, when she got wet, Miss Xu Qi just said, "I'm dirty," instead of "They said I was dirty."

Xu Nianyi remembered that when Ruan Yunheng did the DNA test before, he also did it on Xu Anyu and Xu Shu at the same time.

The test results showed a similarity of 25%, which means that Xu Shu is not only a real member of the Xu family, but she and Xu Anyu are probably sisters and the illegitimate daughter of Xu Anyu's father.

The Xu family's chaos is not just talk.

At this moment, Ruan Yunheng had almost calmed Xu Anyu down. He stood up while holding Xu Anyu and looked towards Xu Nianyi.

When he saw Xu Shu in the hot spring pool, his brows tightened, as if he didn't expect her to appear.

Xu Nianyi didn't want to embarrass him, so she just said to Ruan Yunheng, "Take Xu Anyu back first. Let Ah Wen wait for me outside. I'll be out soon."

Ruan Yunheng withdrew his gaze from Xu Shu, thought for a moment, nodded to Xu Nianyi, and left holding Xu Anyu.

Xu Nianyi then looked back at Xu Shu and saw that her eyes were fixed on Ruan Yunheng's back.

Xu Nianyi frowned, "Haven't you already changed your target and approached Xie Yanwen? Why are you still looking at Ruan Yunheng?"

"What did you say?"

At this time, there was complete panic in Xu Shu's deer-like eyes.

Xu Nianyi smiled softly, "Xu Shu, stop pretending. I'm telling you, I know everything you want to do, and I know exactly what kind of person you are."

"What on earth are you talking about?"

Xu Shu slowly exerted force on her hands that were supporting herself on the stone steps, and her knuckles turned white.

Xu Nianyi just squatted with his legs folded, and said to her slowly, "You are the illegitimate daughter of Xu Anyu's father. You were raised outside since you were a child. Now the Xu family took you back because you look like me. They thought Ruan Yunheng liked me, so they wanted you to be close to Ruan Yunheng."

"You discovered that Ruan Yunheng liked Xu Anyu, but the one who really liked me was Xie Yanwen, so you changed your target of seduction to Xie Yanwen. You've been observing me and imitating me these past few days, appearing in front of Xie Yanwen from time to time to make your presence felt. Did you think that this would help you get close to Xie Yanwen?"

"But now it seems that you haven't completely given up on Ruan Yunheng. Could it be that you still want to get close to both of them at the same time?"

Xu Shu's eyelashes trembled violently, and she almost bit her lower lip until it bled. She stared at Xu Nianyi without saying a word.

"Did I guess right?"

Xu Nianyi knew it just by looking at her appearance.

She was silent for a moment and sighed softly: "But actually I don't really care who you want to get close to, because no matter who it is, you won't succeed this time."

She looked at Xu Shu seriously and asked her, "What I want to know most is, are you forced to do this, or... do you want this yourself?"

Xu Shu looked into her eyes.

Xu Nianyi's eyes were very clear and bright. Even though everyone said that she and Xu Nianyi looked alike, only she knew that they were not alike at all.

At first glance, Xu Nianyi looks like a girl who grew up being loved and cared for. She has never suffered and doesn't know what despair is.

That was something she couldn't imitate no matter how hard she tried.

Xu Shu lowered her eyes and suddenly smiled. She raised her eyes and looked at Xu Nianyi again. The panic and helplessness in her eyes disappeared, leaving only cold provocation.

"Is that important?"

She stared at Xu Nianyi: "Whether I was forced or it was what I wanted, this is my only choice."

She finally stopped pretending, and Xu Nianyi breathed a sigh of relief. After all, it was tiring to talk to someone who pretended.

Xu Shu is more pleasing to the eye now.

Xu Nianyi asked her: "What if I can give you another choice?"

Xu Shu curled her lips and asked, "Can the choice you can give me allow me to have everything I want?"

Xu Nianyi tilted her head curiously: "What do you want?"

Xu Shu tucked the wet hair that was stuck to her face behind her ears, completely revealing the face that looked similar to Xu Nianyi. She looked at Xu Nianyi and smiled softly, her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, making it impossible to see her heart.

She said, "Can you give me the power and wealth to trample everyone under my feet?"

If Xu Nianyi had thought before this, Xu Shu might have been completely forced and had no choice.

But at this moment, Xu Nianyi completely understood her.

Maybe she was forced, but even if she was given a choice, she would not take it.

Her goal is simple and clear.

So, even if she gave birth to a child, she could leave it without caring about anything.

Because the child is just her tool, once she achieves her goal, he will become a burden or even a shame.

So when they met again later, she was neither cold nor indifferent, as if she was looking at a stranger.

Actually, it’s quite good. Since the mother is not kind, the daughter will naturally be unfilial.

If lightning strikes, it will strike her first!

"I couldn't bear to see you soaking in the water and wanted to help you out, but now it seems I don't have the ability to do so."

Xu Nianyi stood up and looked down at Xu Shu who was standing in the hot spring pool: "Then just climb up by yourself. If you can climb up, it's your ability. If you can't climb up and drown, it's your fate."

After saying that, Xu Nianyi turned around to leave, and Xu Shu behind him suddenly spoke again, "You said this."

Xu Shu sneered, almost gritting her teeth: "If I climb up, don't cry."

Xu Nianyi looked at Xie Yanwen, who had come over at some point and was already standing at the entrance of the hot spring.

Their eyes met, and there was a gentle smile in his eyes.

Xu Nianyi also curved her eyes and looked back at Xu Shu, "Why should I cry? If you can climb up, I will recognize you as my mother!"

Xu Shu: “?”

Seeing her expression twisted a little with satisfaction, Xu Nianyi smiled and ran towards Xie Yanwen.

The other girls had already run away, probably because they saw Xu Nianyi pushing Xu Shu into the water and were afraid of being implicated.

When Ruan Yunheng carried Xu Anyu out, he asked Xie Yanwen to come over and wait, worried that Xu Nianyi and Xu Shu would start a fight.

Xie Yanwen came over hurriedly and saw Xu Nianyi squatting by the pool talking to Xu Shu, so he didn't go in.

At this moment, Xu Nianyi ran out. He hugged her as usual, lowered his eyes and looked at her seriously, not missing any of her emotional fluctuations.

He didn't say anything, but his eyes were very clear.

Xu Nianyi was amused and held his face and squeezed it, "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Xie Yanwen relaxed and let her rub his face, saying only, "If you're unhappy, tell me."

"How can I be sad if I have never had any feelings?"

Xu Nianyi said softly: "At most, it's just a little disappointment."
