"It's definitely an act! The real heiress must have been blackmailed into posting this on Weibo!"

"The real heiress is so pitiful... Ning Yu, don't be afraid, we are all behind you. A rich family heiress is a rich family heiress, a chicken can never become a phoenix."

Ning Yu had the honor of replying to this comment: "You're the beast, I'm a human being."

"Hilarious, Ning Yu is so domineering."

"The real heiress doesn't seem to care about these things at all, and she never tries to play the victim."

"Ning Yu is the top science student in Fengcheng this year and has been admitted to Peking University. Whether Ning Yu marries into a wealthy family or not is irrelevant. She has achieved everything she wants entirely through her own efforts. Moreover, the wealthy family is very rich, and raising another daughter is no problem for them. Netizens are just meddling in other people's business."

"Shi Xi didn't do anything at all, did she? She's a victim too."

“Being pampered in a wealthy family for 18 years, does that make someone a victim? I’d love to be a victim too.”

"..."

The online comments grew increasingly heated, but they did not affect Shi Xi and Ning Yu's mood.

Ning Yu rarely checks Weibo; she only spoke up for Shi Xi when she saw people discussing the matter in the game world chat.

In Ning Yu's view, Shi Xi is just a simple-minded, naive girl who would be bullied if she entered the entertainment industry.

The Shi family is wealthy, but most of it will be inherited by the eldest son, Shi Xu. Only a small portion will be given to Shi Xi.

Ning Yu didn't care about the money. She could earn it all herself through her own efforts. If it weren't for the bond of blood, she would never have come back here.

In Shi Xi's view, everything she has now belongs to Ning Yu.

The only thing she's truly fighting for in the entertainment industry is her own.

Seeing Ning Yu stand up for her, Shi Xi was so excited that she cheered for Ning Yu.

As expected of the female lead!

Shi Xizhen gave a shout-out and called Ning Yu to thank her.

"Is there anything else? If not, I'm hanging up." Ning Yu remained as aloof and indifferent as ever, seemingly unapproachable.

Shi Xi: "It's alright now. I wish you happiness every day, sister."

His tone was like that of a salesperson.

Some people online are trying to make a fuss about the real and fake heiresses, but the two people at the center of the story don't care about any of that.

Some suspected that the Ning couple had switched the children and wanted them punished by law. However, the Shi family's investigation had already revealed that the incident was indeed a false alarm.

The two girls born that day were bathed together. The small hospital 18 years ago was poorly managed. The doctor who delivered the babies had passed away, and the nurse had married and moved to another place and changed careers. She didn't have a deep memory of what happened 18 years ago.

The matter of the children being switched at birth was ultimately left unresolved.

Shi's parents had also suspected Ning's parents, but when they investigated the couple, they found that Ning's parents really doted on Ning Yu, granting her every request and treating her like their own daughter.

Seeing how well they had raised Ning Yu, the Shi family stopped pursuing the matter and treated her as if she had gained another daughter.

Public opinion could no longer stir up any waves.

Even so, some people still sneaked into Longquan Village and found the Ning couple.

Ning's parents, carrying carefully prepared local specialties, waited for Shi Xi at the place she passed every day on her way to work, guided by the reporter.

When Shi Xi went to work to record, she saw the Ning couple covered in mud and looked at them with disgust, "What are you doing here?"
