Everyone has already admitted to the facts of what happened back then! They have all testified to what happened and the truth! The evidence is right in front of them, yet the adopted daughter is still claiming she was wronged.
Seeing her seemingly insane appearance, Zhou Yi's next words left his adopted daughter stunned on the spot.
All that was heard was Zhou Yi saying, "My mother didn't die back then; she was saved by the Qi family's miracle doctor!"
As soon as Zhou Yi finished speaking!
It was like a bomb had been dropped on everyone present, leaving them all stunned and speechless for a long time.
Grandpa Shen, Grandpa Qi, Yu Anping, and the others all looked astonished and shocked.
Shen Bingyan was only surprised for a second before she quickly realized something, and her eyes flickered.
Only when the adopted daughter heard that Zhou Yi's mother was not dead did she fall silent. Just moments before, she had been shouting that she wanted to confront her sister.
A few seconds later, the adopted daughter trembled violently.
She shook her head, repeatedly denying it: "No, it's impossible... You're lying! My sister can't possibly still be alive."
Zhou Yi broke through her psychological defenses once again: "Really? So certain? Otherwise, where did I learn my medical skills from?"
"My mother faked her death. Do you really want my mother to confront you and tell you everything?"
"The reason my mother didn't come today is to save face for you and not to make things too ugly with you."
"But you..."
Zhou Yi shook his head and said sarcastically, "You have disappointed my mother greatly."
At this moment, faced with mountains of evidence and everyone's betrayal and accusations, the adopted daughter could not break down after hearing that her older sister was still alive.
The adopted daughter closed her eyes in despair.
How could he still be alive!
Why!
Why is this happening?!
In this situation, what excuses could she possibly make? Would her adoptive father still believe her? I'm afraid... never mind, never mind.
The adopted daughter closed her eyes and knelt on the ground: "It's true!! I did it all! I did it all!"
“I’m jealous of my sister because she has a loving family. Why is it that her father is still alive while she can enjoy a life of luxury?”
"But I have to live under someone else's roof, and my father died in battle."
This is the only time in all these years that the adopted daughter has spoken out about her grievances in front of so many people.
She knew that Grandpa Qi had been very good to her, and she shouldn't be jealous or have any other thoughts.
But every time she saw Grandpa Qi's care and love for his daughter, and saw the father and daughter getting along, she would always think involuntarily what if it was Grandpa Qi who died in the battle, and her father hadn't died.
At this point, she is a princess who is loved by everyone, while her older sister is a pitiful child living under someone else's roof.
Grandpa Qi had never skimped on her material life, but she also had her pride, and she didn't want to live under someone else's roof.
Especially when compared to her older sister, she would always have jealous fantasies.
Perhaps after her sister dies, the favor and status that originally belonged to her will belong to her.
In the daily torment, the adopted daughter was consumed by jealousy, her mind consumed by thoughts of taking her place.
No, these things should have belonged to her in the first place.
For so many years, Grandpa Qi had always trusted his adopted daughter, and he never knew that she would have such thoughts.
After hearing his adopted daughter's honest words, Old Master Qi felt a tightness in his chest, as if a breath was stuck in his heart, unable to come up or go down.
It's his fault for not discovering his adopted daughter's hypocrisy sooner.
"It's my fault, it's all my fault."
“If I hadn’t adopted you back then, but instead found you a good family to adopt you, you wouldn’t have had these thoughts.”
The adopted daughter suddenly looked up at Old Master Qi, her expression one of utter disbelief that she saw right through his hypocrisy: "You regret adopting me?"
"Hehe, I knew you would say that you treat me like your own daughter, but there is a big difference between biological and adopted children."
“Even though your daughter has been missing for more than 20 years, I have been with you for 30 years, longer than your own daughter has been with you.”
"But I still can't replace your own daughter."
Old Master Qi opened his mouth, but then hesitated and stopped.
For a moment, I didn't know what to say...
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yi coldly remarked, "Isn't this just a matter of course?"
“That’s Old Master Qi’s biological daughter, while you are just an adopted daughter.”
No matter how long you stay with someone, you can never replace them.
"If everyone thought like you, then how could servants who have worked in their master's house all their lives expect to have a share of the master's property?"
“Your lover has been with Grandpa Qi longer than you have. They came down from the battlefield together and have experienced more than you have.”
"Did he ever think about becoming Old Master Qi's son?"
"Why do you, an adopted daughter, take everything for granted as your own?"
"You don't even recognize your own position, yet you feel sorry for being dependent on others."
There are plenty of people more pitiful than you, but I've never seen anyone more ruthless than you.
Zhou Yi's words were like shards of ice in the dead of winter, not enough to kill but enough to cause pain. His adopted daughter felt cold, itchy, hot, and painful all over, a mix of emotions she couldn't describe.
The adopted daughter trembled violently, closing her eyes as she awaited the impending punishment.
Looking at his adopted daughter's pale face, Old Master Qi felt a pang of pity flash through his anger.
No matter how heartless he was, his adopted daughter had indeed been with him for thirty years, and moreover, she was the descendant of his comrade-in-arms.
