198 True and False Daughter

"Why is she here?"

Just as a hint of murderous intent flashed across Ye Zhizhi's eyes, a large hand pressed down on her head, artificially suppressing the aura around her.

Ye Zhizhi raised his eyes angrily.

Ye Zhiyan had witnessed Ye Zhizhi's fighting prowess during the day. The tall, strong young man was tossed around like a toy. In the club, he could easily cover up the incident thanks to his mother's support, but now, with more and more people watching, he had to keep a low profile.

If there is any problem, let the bodyguards take over.

Ye Zhizhi was depressed. Human society was so troublesome. Things that he didn't like could not be cleaned up directly.

The onlookers were just thinking about how to greet Director Ye and Director Yu in a natural way so that they could get to know each other better. Unexpectedly, they saw a scene. Suddenly, everyone looked at them. They didn't even bother to say hello and just started eating melons in silence.

Lin Yuyu's heart was calm. Seeing these people who had hurt her so much again could no longer stir her emotions.

Ye Zhizhi's protection softened her expression and warmed her heart.

Now, it is her battlefield, she can't let Zhizhi get involved and get hurt.

Lin Duoyu stood up, walked to the Ye family, stood in front of Lin Qiongyu, and looked at them calmly.

Lin Qiongyu seemed to have recovered. Surprise and joy filled her eyes, and tears welled up in her eyes. "Sister, are you okay? I'm so glad!"

Lin Duoyu was indifferent, "Really?"

Huo Jianjian complained dissatisfiedly, "What's your attitude? Qiong Yu cares about you so much, and even spent so much time in grief for you, and yet she didn't even hold such an important event as the graduation banquet!"

Lin Duoyu asked calmly, "Has my funeral been held yet?"

Cui Mingxiao stabbed, "Aren't you alive?"

Lin Duoyu looked Cui Mingxiao up and down. His expression was still full of disgust, and he showed no guilt at all. She thought it was ridiculous. If he hadn't taken her out and abandoned her, she wouldn't have gotten lost in the jungle. These people were really heartless.

Lin Duoyu was too lazy to talk to them. She looked at Lin De, Lin's mother, and Lin Lixuan, her so-called relatives.

She asked coldly, "After you thought I was dead, you only remembered to hold a graduation banquet for Lin Qiongyu, but didn't remember to hold a funeral for me?"

Mother Lin's chest heaved with anger. "How dare you say that? If you hadn't been running around, why would it be like this..."

"Oh, is that what they told you? But Madam Lin, three months ago, I didn't want to go on other people's graduation trips. They had just finished their college entrance exams and graduated, but I was still in my second year of high school, about to become a junior. It was the most stressful time for my studies, but you insisted that I take time off to go with you. Just because Lin Qiongyu wanted to take me with her, you asked for leave for me."

Huo Jianjian said angrily, "Don't be so ungrateful! Qiong Yu did that for your own good!"

Lin Qiongyu wanted to speak, but just as she called out "Sister," Lin Duoyu looked away and turned to the audience. "You all have sons and daughters, brothers and sisters, and even if you're an only child, you still have cousins, right? Would you ask your brothers and sisters, who are in the critical period of their studies, to take time off to accompany you for your trip?"

A quick-talking young man instinctively replied, "Then my mother will break my legs."

There was a murmur among the crowd. They had only heard vague things before and did not understand deeply, but they also knew that the person the Lin family had found was not presentable. Now it seems that there are many hidden secrets?

Lin Qiongyu's eyes suddenly turned red. "Sister, I was wrong. I was just thinking about helping you integrate into your circle of friends. I just thought it was a good opportunity. I didn't think too much..."

Lin Duoyu didn't want to reply. She looked at the rest of the Lin family and said word by word, "I didn't run away. He forcibly took me away and then abandoned me in the jungle. If I hadn't been rescued, he would have killed me and left no trace."

Cui Mingxiao said confidently, "Who told you to bully Qiong Yu and give her a hard time? I was just teaching you a lesson, and you didn't go far. You ran around on your own, what does it have to do with me?"

Lin Qiongyu looked a little fragile, and her voice was soft and pleading, "Sister, I know you hate me, but if there is anything, can you please talk about it in private? Whether you beat me or scold me, it's all up to you. I have no complaints."

As she spoke, Lin Qiongyu glanced uncomfortably at the growing number of guests.

Lin De, Lin's mother, and the others also noticed the scene, and their faces immediately turned ugly. Lin's mother said in a stern voice, "It's just a joke between friends, why be so stingy? Since it's okay, then stay here. Today is your sister's graduation banquet, don't embarrass yourself."

"So, you think it's just a joke, and I'm being petty if I make a fuss about it?"

Linde also realized what was happening. He frowned and said, "If you have anything to say, wait until the banquet is over."

"That's not what you're saying, Mr. Lin." Ye Lang's voice rang out. "The child has suffered a great injustice, yet everyone is acting like they're blaming her. Duoduo, this little girl, has finally escaped death and returned home. She's the victim. As her closest family members, shouldn't you seek justice for her?"

Lin De's face looked a little grim. "This... Mr. Ye, the situation is still uncertain..."

"Boss Lin, you're being too unfair." Yu Jingyao also stood up and said jokingly, "Duoduo is a good girl, we all like her very much. Since your family can't even give her fair treatment, then we have to leave."

The Ye family's protection instantly warmed Lin Yuyou's heart. She turned her head and saw Ye Zhizhi standing firmly beside her. She felt more courageous. She turned her head to look at the Lin family. Just as she was about to say that she would sever ties with them, she caught sight of an unexpected person out of the corner of her eye. She looked over in shock.

"Why is she here?"

The person Lin Duoyu was looking at was a middle-aged woman in a work uniform, standing at the edge of the crowd, looking anxiously at this side. This person was her so-called adoptive mother, and also -

"Why would the trafficker who maliciously exchanged your own daughter be in your manor?"

Lin Duoyu only felt the bloody smell rising up. She thought she would no longer have any emotions for the Lin family, but who knew they could still refresh her cognition? A human trafficker was actually living well in the victim's home.

Mrs. Lin frowned subconsciously when she heard Lin Yuyue's questioning. She said dissatisfiedly, "No matter what, she is your adoptive mother. She raised you up to this age, and you don't have any gratitude at all?"

"Huh?" Lin Duoyu laughed. It turns out that people really do laugh when they are extremely angry. "Does she deserve it?"

"The Lin family's daughter was swapped? Didn't they say she was taken away by mistake?"

"So that person is the daughter of a human trafficker?"

"Ah? The Lin family is really kind. They're so kind to the daughter of a human trafficker."

The crowd was filled with even more discussion. Was the version of the news they heard wrong?

Although there is a vague rumor like this, seeing that the Lin family still dotes on the fake one, they believe the version of the mistaken baby even more. The Lin family also said this to the outside world, and they did not hold a special banquet to announce the existence of the real daughter. When talking about it on weekdays, the Lin family avoids talking about it, and their attitude is not very happy.

Later, a lot of gossip came out that the real daughter was not presentable, so it seemed that there was some truth to the Lin family's dislike of the real daughter.

It turns out there are quite a few inside stories here?
