Just as the old lady was about to nod, the phone rang urgently. Xiao Li answered it and called out to Ye Qingqing, "Miss Ye, it's for you."

Ye Qingqing thought it was Ye Tong calling, perhaps something had happened to the old lady at home, so she rushed to answer the phone, but to her surprise, it was Lu Mo.

"How did you know I was at the Sang family's house?" Ye Qingqing asked in surprise.

Lu Mo's calm voice came through, "Xiao Tong said so."

He first called the Ye family, but Xiao Tong answered the phone and said that Ye Qingqing had gone to the Sang family. Lu Mo had something urgent to do and couldn't wait a minute longer, so he called back.

Moreover, the Sang family was the best place for her. Perhaps it was all preordained that Qingqing would meet the Sang family by chance!

“I’ve found out about your background… Qingqing…”

Just as Lu Mo was about to mention that it was related to the Sang family, Ye Qingqing exclaimed in surprise, "What a coincidence! I just found out too! Lu Mo, did you know that my biological father's name is Ye Mingcheng, my grandmother's name is Gu Nianci, and Grandma Sheng is my great-aunt!"

Ye Qingqing was overjoyed and eager to share her happiness with Lu Mo. She chattered like a lark, while the old lady and Sun Qiuyun beside her smiled with satisfaction, their eyes fixed on Ye Qingqing, unwilling to look away for even a second, unable to get enough of her.

Lu Mo on the other end of the phone was silent for a while. He was really surprised. He didn't expect that the Sang family was also investigating Ye Qingqing, and that they had found out about her even before he did.

However, the Sang family may not know about some of the information he found!

"I'm coming right away, wait for me at the Sang family's house!"

Lu Mo hung up after saying that. Ye Qingqing was stunned for a moment, then smiled at the old lady and Sun Qiuyun and said, "Lu Mo said he'll be here in a bit. He just found out about my background."

"Did you know about your background all along? Did your mother tell you?" the old lady asked.

Ye Qingqing's eyes dimmed instantly, and she shook her head. "No, Mom only told me to take good care of my younger brother. She didn't have time to say anything else. It was my own suspicion that led me to get a paternity test."

The old lady and Sun Qiuyun exchanged surprised glances, and felt even more pity for Ye Qingqing.

"Is Ye Zhiguo treating you very badly?"

If Ye Zhiguo treated Qingqing well, why would a little girl doubt her own background?

The old lady's expression turned cold, and she felt hatred towards Ye Zhiguo, whom she had never met before. She would remember this debt!

but--

"No, he was very good to me, always doting on me. He would buy me whatever I wanted. I had never done any work since I was little, not even washing handkerchiefs. I would fight, skip classes, and even argue with teachers, but Ye Zhiguo never said anything to me. He would only say that it was other people's fault."

Ye Qingqing laughed self-deprecatingly. For the past seventeen years, both in her previous life and this one, she had lived in a beautiful bubble, which was very beautiful under the sunlight, but it was an illusion and could not last.

Once the bubble bursts, she immediately reverts to her original form, plunging into an abyss from which there is no return.

The old lady grew up in a complicated family. Her father had married three concubines, so she knew all too well the intrigues and power struggles in the inner quarters. She could tell what Ye Zhiguo was up to just by listening to him.

This is an attempt to flatter Qingqing to her detriment!

Their intentions are despicable!

Fortunately, Qingya was quick-witted and noticed something was wrong, otherwise...

The old lady couldn't even imagine what the consequences would be if Ye Qingqing hadn't noticed and continued to live a muddled, decadent life as before.

A beautiful, innocent girl with enormous wealth is like China in the late Qing Dynasty – surrounded by powerful nations, all eager to grab a piece of the pie.
