Tong Shuirong didn't even shout, and even though Dongfang Die secretly pushed her several times, she still didn't move.

Dongfang Die had no way to deal with this.

She greeted Dongfang Tinglan, "Aunt, Uncle."

Gong Beize nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

Although Dongfang Tinglan disliked Dongfang Yelei, she never intended to transfer her dissatisfaction to Dongfang Die.

He nodded slightly as well.

The old lady glanced at the defiant Tong Shuirong and knew what she was thinking with just one look.

Therefore, she felt more and more that her decision was absolutely correct.

Finally, the old man spoke first, "Please sit down."

Dongfang Die nodded and pulled Tong Shuirong to sit opposite Dongfang Tinglan.

There's a slightly awkward atmosphere right now.

Dongfang Die took a deep breath, telling herself that she would find out sooner or later, so there was nothing to be afraid of, and then asked.

"Did Grandpa and Grandma call us over for something?"

The old man didn't say anything.

"There is something I need to tell you in person."

The old lady's expression was not good, and even her voice was somewhat indifferent and displeased.

At least that's how it sounds to Dongfang Die.

Dongfang Die was very puzzled, but she didn't ask.

She knew the old lady would finish speaking, but for some reason, she always felt that it was directed at her and her daughter.

"Dongfang Yelei is not a member of our Dongfang family, much less my child."

Tong Shuirong was originally very dissatisfied with the two elders and had no intention of listening to what the old lady had to say.

Upon hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, then shook his head in denial, saying, "Impossible, absolutely impossible! How could Master not be a child of the Dongfang family!"

"Mom, is that why you said that because you think he's dead and has no one to rely on?"

Dongfang Die froze on the spot, unable to process the news for a moment.

The old lady suddenly looked coldly at Tong Shuirong, "Why would I need to lie to you? Dongfang Yelei's remains are still at the police station. If you don't believe me, we can do a paternity test."

Upon hearing this, Tong Shuirong wavered somewhat.

Could it be that the master is really not the second master of the Dongfang family?

The old lady continued, "My husband and I have always treated Dongfang Yelei and our own children the same."

As the old saying goes, the kindness of giving birth is greater than the kindness of raising. We have a clear conscience towards Dongfang Yelei. From childhood to adulthood, whenever we bought things, the three of them treated each other the same and never complained that he was shortchanged.

But what about him? How did he repay us? He poisoned us first, and then he attacked Yi'er. Are these things a human being could do?

The old lady was furious and slammed her hand on the table, making a loud bang.

Dongfang Die felt her very soul tremble.

The mother was unaware of the father's actions and ambitions, but she knew. Although not all of them, what she knew was enough for her to feel that her father had overstepped his bounds.

Tong Shuirong said, "Impossible! Master wouldn't do that. Someone must be framing him. Is it Shen Qiu? He's a traitor. You can't trust his words!"

She stood up as she spoke passionately.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Die quickly stood up and pulled Tong Shuirong back from her outburst. "Mom, don't be impulsive. Listen to Grandma... let the old lady finish speaking first."

She had no feelings for Dongfang Yelei.

Therefore, she knew very well that at this moment, the old lady's words could not possibly be based solely on Shen Qiu's words.

They might have even more convincing evidence, but for some reason they haven't brought it out.

Tong Shuirong sat back down.

The old lady watched this scene with a cold eye, and then said in a cold voice, "Since I dare to say this, I naturally have evidence in my hands."

However, since he is no longer alive, we do not want to pursue his responsibility.

I'm only saying this to let you know that if you're willing to behave yourselves, the Dongfang family won't abandon you and your mother. But if you share his sentiments, and I find out, the consequences will be far beyond what you can bear.

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Die breathed a long sigh of relief.

Tong Shuirong, standing to the side, retorted indignantly, "Now that the master is gone, Mom and Dad, do you really dislike us so much? Why do you have to make up such things to hurt us? Aren't you afraid that Ye Lei will die with regrets?"

"Mom!" Dongfang Die called out, frowning.

"Don't call me that. You're heartless. When your father was alive, he didn't feed or clothe you. Now that she's not home, you're so quick to pledge your loyalty?"

Upon hearing this, Dongfang Die's expression turned quite unpleasant.

Although she did have this thought in her mind, the fact that it had been exposed made her feel like she wanted to strangle someone in a single day.

If it weren't for the fact that this person was her mother, someone who had given her life and raised her, she really would have wanted to do this.

Tong Shuirong reacted as if she had swallowed gunpowder, then turned her gaze towards Dongfang Tinglan and the other woman, her eyes blazing with fury.

"Was it you? You came back and all this trouble happened. If you hadn't come back, Ye Lei wouldn't have died!"

You've been gone for twenty years, why are you coming back?!

The old lady was furious when she heard her speak of her daughter like that.

Just as he was about to open his mouth and rebuke, an even colder and more indifferent voice rang out from the doorway.

“My mother is going back to her own home. What does it have to do with you, an outsider! Even if someone has to leave, it's you who should leave the Dongfang family.”

As for Dongfang Yelei, it was all due to his insatiable greed; if anyone is to blame, it's only himself—his abilities couldn't support his ambitions!

Upon hearing the sound, everyone's gaze immediately turned to the doorway.

Jane Yixue, dressed in a cream-colored French-style dress, strode in aggressively.

Even in flat shoes, he walked with an imposing presence.

Ye Mohan, like a protector of a flower, strode over from behind.

The man and woman were both stunningly beautiful and a perfect match.

When Dongfang Tinglan saw Jian Yixue, her face lit up with joy, and she immediately got up to greet her.

"Xue'er, you're back. Are you tired? Do you want to go and rest? Mom can handle this."

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue looked at Dongfang Tinglan, put away her original imposing manner, shook her head and said, "I'm not tired, I slept on the plane."

"Since I've been unlucky enough to run into this, I can't just ignore it."

After getting off the plane, Ye Mohan's people reported to her in detail what had happened to the Dongfang family during this period.

Tong Shuirong was very surprised to hear the two of them. She did not expect that Dongfang Tinglan would bring back such a big daughter after so many years.

Dongfang Die was equally shocked.

Suddenly, she remembered what had happened when she went to her aunt's courtyard to look for something, as her father had instructed, and she immediately understood.

It turns out they knew so early on that Jian Yixue was of the Dongfang family bloodline.

Why not disclose it publicly?
