Cheng Shizhang, Yu Peiyan, and Cheng Zhibo kept praying for that medical case, but the final result still disappointed them greatly. The paternity test clearly stated that Cheng Zhili was not related to Cheng Shizhang or Yu Peiyan by blood.

Although she was mentally prepared, Cheng Zhili still felt empty when she saw the result, as if she were a rootless duckweed.

"Little sister, don't worry. No matter what kind of people your biological parents are, no matter if they switched your identity with another girl, you are you, they are them, and you will always be my little sister, Cheng Zhibo."

"Mom won't let you go back. You are Mom's daughter."

"Stay home and relax. Dad will take care of the rest."

Cheng Zhili bit her lower lip: "Did my biological parents really switch us?"

"This is just a guess, after all, we can't think of anyone else who would have such a motive."

"Dad will investigate and find out the truth, Zhili. You have to understand Dad. If it really was them, even if they are your blood relatives, Dad will not let them off the hook. We will pursue their criminal liability so that you can stay in the Cheng family forever."

Cheng Zhili felt increasingly guilty. If that were really the case, she didn't know what to do.

She enjoyed the best resources of the Cheng family and possessed everything that the girl had. However, her own parents were the ones who hurt her parents and the girl the most. What can she do to undo all this damage?

"Dad, Mom, I'm sorry."

“We told you yesterday that you don’t need to apologize to us. This is not your fault. Staying at home is the best way to repay us.”

"Didn't you make an appointment with Ji Yunyang today? I'll take you there. Don't think about anything else, just make sure you have a good date."

Cheng Zhibo pulled the uninterested Cheng Zhili to her feet. Yu Peiyan stared at Cheng Zhili and said, "We don't know the specifics yet, so don't mention anything to Ji Yunyang. Remember, you are the one engaged to him. Even if our biological daughter comes back, that won't change. This is the best match that your mother has specially chosen for you. Later, your father will be discussing the contract with your Uncle Ji."

Originally, Cheng Zhili was wondering if she had taken someone else's identity, or even if the marriage with Ji Yunyang shouldn't have been hers. But after hearing her mother's words, Cheng Zhili instantly lost all such thoughts.

She couldn't selfishly jeopardize the cooperation between her family and the Ji family, so she should just listen to her mother.

She thought that she could never repay the Cheng family's kindness in her lifetime.

Although she didn't really want an arranged marriage, Ji Yunyang was indeed very outstanding and a very good marriage prospect. Perhaps that girl would like him?

But because of his existence, he took everything away from that girl, causing her to lose the opportunity to be with Ji Yunyang. How could she not feel guilty?

The inner torment made Cheng Zhili lose all interest in receiving Song Wenwen's call.

"Zhili, Mom and I are going to set up a stall again. Didn't you say you wanted to come and watch? It's at the night market tomorrow, and I'll be the one grilling. Come over and I'll grill for you."

Cheng Zhili glanced at her brother and refused, "Wenwen, I have something to do recently, so I probably can't go."

Song Wenwen immediately sensed that something was wrong with her and quickly asked, "Zhili, are you alright?"

"What could possibly happen to me? My parents and brother love me very much and can't bear to see me suffer any grievances. I have been busy with other things these past two days, maybe next time."

"Okay, Zhili, don't keep anything to yourself. You can come to me anytime."

"Okay, have fun with your auntie, I'll hang up now."

As Cheng Zhibo started the car, he said, "It's not that your brother is interfering in your life, but we and Song Wenwen have different views on life. The more we interact, the more conflicts will arise in the future. Her lifestyle may not be suitable for you. Zhili, don't you feel that your mood swings have become more pronounced since you became good friends with her?"

Is there?

Cheng Zhili habitually touched the small stone around her neck. It seemed that whenever she was in a bad mood, wearing this would make her feel better.

She admired Wenwen's life, but she felt that she would never clash with Wenwen because of their different lifestyles.

"Brother, don't worry, I won't change everything that Mom and Dad have planned for me just because I'm friends with Wenwen. I know that Mom and Dad are doing this for my own good."

What she didn't say was, what right did she have to negotiate with her parents now? She thought that the best way to repay them was to be a good daughter to them!

"Yes, you need to understand that we will always be your closest family, regardless of whether we are related by blood or not. At least the years we've spent together over the past ten years are genuine."

"Brother, I understand."

"Don't tell Song Wenwen about this for now. She's always been reckless, but we're different. It's not easy for Mom and Dad to maintain the current cooperative relationship with the Ji family."

How could Cheng Zhili not know? It was precisely because she knew that she had been so depressed all this time.

She had already compromised before her true identity was revealed, and now that it is, she can't let her parents be in a difficult position.

“Brother, I will be a good fiancée to Ji Yunyang. Of course, if the girl is outstanding and likes Ji Yunyang, I can give up this position at any time.”

Cheng Zhibo's voice was cold: "If she knew you were already engaged and still coveted Ji Yunyang, then that's just her being unreasonable. Regardless of whether she's my biological sister or not, Zhili, remember, your brother will always be on your side. You are the sister I've cherished for over ten years."

"But brother, it's not fair to that girl if you say that!"

"There's no such thing as fairness. It's because you're well-behaved, obedient, and sensible that your brother dotes on you. It has nothing to do with whether you're his biological sister or not."

Cheng Zhili looked out the window. She was the last person in the right to offer advice. Now, perhaps all she could do was listen to her parents and brother in order to repay their kindness.

Meanwhile, Cheng Shizhang had already obtained the obstetrics and gynecology records from the hospital where Cheng Zhili was born and secretly arranged for someone to investigate.

"No matter what you find, don't announce it yet. Report it to me as soon as you find even a little bit."

"Yes, so should we still file a lawsuit against the hospital?"

"No need," Cheng Shizhang waved wearily.

Unlike his wife, who raised Zhili single-handedly, he didn't get involved much. He naturally loved Zhili, but he was also curious about and felt sorry for his own daughter.

If only I had known the secret of my origins before the marriage alliance with the Ji family, but fortunately the Ji family is satisfied with Zhili, and Zhili is quite obedient. I just don't know if the Ji family will have any thoughts after they find out in the future.

In any case, once the child is found, she must be raised well. This way, whether the Ji family is calculating or trying to form an alliance with other families, they will have something to be proud of.
