Xie Li turned her head and rejected Shen Xinghe's previous suggestion without blinking, "No, it's not allowed. I have family and an older brother. My grandfather won't agree."

The conversation didn't end until Xie Lin came out, and Xie Li said, "Brother, will you come with me to see Grandpa?"

Although Grandpa Xie didn't show it, she could tell that the old man still harbored resentment about the departure of the eldest son and his mother years ago.

However, my aunt has a very strong personality. She said she wouldn't rely on the Xie family and that's how she decided to raise her son all these years on her own.

At this point, it would seem too cruel and heartless to try and take her son away from her.

Now that Xie Li has returned, these unresolved issues between her relatives must be resolved.

Xie Lin left the Xie family back then, perhaps out of guilt, and this guilt only became more and more troubling to him over time.

He was largely to blame for his sister's disappearance. The thought that Xie Li might be suffering made his conscience uneasy.

When Xie Li was found, he did think about secretly visiting her, but he was even more afraid that if she knew the truth, she would stand with Ding Huizhu and condemn and insult him.

The younger sister standing in front of him now is just as well-behaved, cute, and smart as she was when she was young, and she has grown into a graceful young woman, not at all like the rumored spoiled brat.

No, she is excellent. She cleared the SSS difficulty level of the Encyclopedia King game, and she also ranked first in the ten-school joint exam.

These are all things to boast about and be proud of. Xie Lin is not surprised at all that Xie Li will be the heir to the Xie family.

He smiled and said, "Okay."

After Xie Li led Xie Lin away.

In front of Shen Lian and Li Chen, Shen Xinghe made a phone call to Old Master Xu.

"Tsk tsk, you're no good at all. Isn't it said that proximity to the water makes it easier to get the moon? But look at her, now that her own grandfather has woken up, she's been going to the Xishan Sanatorium all the time!"

Old Master Xu had just finished a meeting and was angered by this sarcastic remark.

"That's his own grandfather. What's wrong with showing filial piety? Shouldn't we? By the way, I still have strawberries that Lili planted for me in my yard. I've already eaten a few. Are you happy now?"

No, Shen Xinghe wasn't happy; he was so jealous he was almost twisted!

Why should he be allowed to rightfully enjoy the benefits of being his older brother when she is clearly his sister?

"It's all Shen Tiezhu's fault for being such a scoundrel! He's too wicked. I've decided to disown him as my father!"

Shen Lian stared at Shen Xinghe in disbelief. Something was wrong with her idol!

She secretly took out her phone and sent a text message to Xie Li: "Do you know who Shen Tiezhu is?"

Xie Li quickly replied with a message: My adoptive father, what happened?

No, no, Shen Lian felt she had discovered something incredible. Good heavens! Xie Li and Shen Xinghe were actually siblings?

She felt she had to cling to Li Shen no matter what, not only because her hair growth serum, which she had collaborated on with her mother, had become a huge success and brought in a fortune.

This is the best opportunity to get close to her idol! She's so clever!

The next morning, Xie Li took a plane to the capital.

Luo Zhihan was also with her, but she wasn't too surprised, since he was from the capital.

"Did you have a good day yesterday?" Luo Zhihan asked her with a smile.

"Which aspect are you referring to? My brother, or Shen Xinghe?" Xie Li hesitated for a moment, then looked at him seriously. "You know Shen Xinghe, right?"

She had seriously considered this question. It didn't make sense that Shen Xinghe, a big star, would appear in front of her so frequently.
