Shen Zhihuan lowered her voice and whispered to Xie Lanshen, her heart filled with emotion.

She was truly grateful to God for giving her a second chance at life.

It took her back to the past and made so many changes.

Xie Lanshen will not die young on the battlefield like he did in his previous life, and his parents will not die suddenly in an accident.

She also has a truly happy family, and she is happier than ever before.

Shen Zhihuan made up her mind that she would seize this opportunity to make her life more meaningful.

The news of Shen Zhihuan's reunion with her family quickly spread throughout the compound.

At first, it was only the sisters Cheng Xiangling and Cheng Wan who changed their way of addressing each other, calling each other "cousin" and "younger cousin" in the courtyard.

Sister-in-law Zhou and Sister Li were very curious when they heard this, and when they happened to run into each other once, they even stopped them to ask.

"Why are you two sisters suddenly calling Zhihuan like that? How come no one knew your family was related to the Shen family?"

Cheng Xiangling couldn't wait to let the whole world know that she had a particularly beautiful and capable older cousin. As soon as she heard her neighbors asking her this, she immediately began to explain.

"That's a long story."

She started by recounting how Shen Zhihuan was taken by her mother on a train to find her father, only to be abducted by human traffickers along the way. She continued until recently, when Shen Zhihuan and Lin Banxia happened to meet at the hospital and recognized each other at a glance.

Unexpectedly, Shen Zhihuan had such a tortuous and bizarre experience. While everyone felt sorry for her, they were also genuinely happy for her.

Grandma Qian, Grandma Sun, and Grandma Lü saw a group of people chatting enthusiastically and came over to join in the fun.

"What's all this commotion about?"

Sister-in-law Zhou kindly explained to them: "Zhihuan has found her biological parents. Her father is a highly accomplished researcher in the military, and her mother is not only a famous singer but also the descendant of a military officer. They are quite remarkable."

Hearing this, the three old women were green with envy.

With both parents working in the military, and such a powerful background, won't Shen Zhihuan end up living in the military compound?

Compared to this family, what are those living in tenement courtyards and traditional courtyard houses?

If they had put the same energy into themselves, Grandma Sun and the others would probably be laughing their heads off by now.

It's worse than death for them to watch others have good fortune.

Grandma Lü curled her lip and made sarcastic remarks with feigned disdain.

"Who knows what happened? You all said that the couple's child was abducted, so how could it be such a coincidence that the child is back in front of them?"

Old Mrs. Qian rolled her eyes and chimed in.

“I also think there must be another story behind this. It’s not even certain whether Shen Zhihuan is their biological daughter. I advise you not to be too happy too soon.”

Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiangling was the first to object.

“My cousin looks so much like my uncle and aunt, how could she not be their biological daughter?”

"Besides, the kinship test has been done, and it clearly states in black and white that they are related as parents. That can't be fake, right?"

If Grandma Qian and her family were reasonable people, they wouldn't be so annoying in the tenement.

Instead of feeling ashamed after hearing this, they rolled their eyes even more enthusiastically.

"Can the results from the hospital be considered accurate? Maybe some people are just vain and have bribed the doctor to get a fake report."

"You little brat, you don't understand anything. You should go back and talk to your uncle properly, and ask him to find someone else to take a look."

How can you talk like that!

Cheng Xiangling and Cheng Wan angrily rolled up their sleeves, ready to go and settle accounts with those old geezers.

Seeing this, Sister Zhou and Sister Li quickly stopped them.

“They’re all old, not only are they hard of hearing and have poor eyesight, but their hearts have also become quite dirty. Why bother arguing with people like that?”

“That’s right, you two sisters shouldn’t talk to them yet. I think they don’t even believe the hospital’s test results, only the ones they made up. This is clearly a sign of early-onset dementia.”

"Don't worry, I'll go find their families later and have them take them to the hospital for a thorough brain checkup."

The three old ladies were initially trying to act superior because of their age, but they were quickly and wittily retorted by Sister Zhou and Sister Li.

Seeing Cheng Xiangling and Cheng Wan secretly laughing, Grandma Qian and the others turned pale and then red with anger.

Their commotion further spread the news that Shen Zhihuan had reunited with her family.

Shen Ling was resting at home during her pregnancy when she heard that such a big thing had happened. She was shocked and in disbelief.

I almost tumbled down the stairs and fell because I lost my footing.

"How could that be?"

Shen Ling's face was deathly pale as she muttered to herself.

“In my previous life, no one said that Shen Zhihuan wasn’t my parents’ child. Could it be that they simply didn’t like Shen Zhihuan and wanted to favor me?”

She refused to believe it, no matter what she said, that her younger sister, who was originally far inferior to her in the family, had now transformed into the daughter of a powerful and influential family.

"This is impossible, absolutely impossible, they must have made a mistake."

The veins on Shen Ling's forehead throbbed wildly as she carefully reviewed the news she had heard over the past few days. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the name of this woman, who was suspected to be Shen Zhihuan's biological mother, sounded strangely familiar.

She disregarded the fact that she was already quite far along in her pregnancy and hurriedly went around the courtyard to inquire about the situation.

"Do you know which Lin Banxia Shen Zhihuan is referring to as her biological mother?"

Seeing Shen Ling's extremely anxious appearance, everyone could guess that she had broken down after learning that Shen Zhihuan was going to have a good life.

Sister-in-law Zhou and Sister Li hadn't forgotten that when they registered the "Letter of Severance of Relationships," the newspaper clearly described how the Shen family had oppressed Shen Zhihuan.

Now that they finally had a chance to get revenge, everyone was overjoyed. They grabbed Shen Ling and talked for a long time, telling her in detail about Shen Zhihuan's experiences over this period of time.

"Zhihuan is beautiful and outstanding, which is all thanks to her mother's genes."

"As you probably already know, Zhihuan's mother is the incredibly popular singer Lin Banxia. We all adore her. Now that she has Zhihuan as a connection, we might even be able to get her autograph if the opportunity arises."
