Chapter 19: I have an inexplicable affection for Shi Ling
Moreover, she revealed her identity at Shi Ling's engagement party, causing Shi Ling to lose face and become a laughing stock.
In fact, Luo Yuan thought about finding Shi's family in private to clarify the matter, but Xi Jin insisted on doing so. He didn't want to wait until he was engaged to Shi Ling to announce the matter of the real daughter and the fake daughter, so as to avoid Shi Ling being desperate and pestering him.
"It's okay, as long as you like it." Luo Yuan directly packed the complete set of required questions and stuffed them into Shi Ling's hands.
Shi Ling: “…” No, she doesn’t like it.
However, she already owed Luo Yuan something because she had taken over his position. If she rejected his advances, wouldn't that be too ungrateful?
Shi Ling forced a more sincere smile, "Thank you."
Qin Niao rolled his eyes silently: So fake.
Luo Yuan asked again: "Are you still going back to live in Building 4 of Jinyu Hua Ting? I heard it's haunted. Why don't you come home and live with us?"
Luo Yuan thought about it for a long time and felt that it would be difficult for Shi Ling, a girl who had just reached adulthood, to survive outside. If something unexpected happened, she would feel uneasy.
Qin Niao pulled away Shi Ling's claws that were covering her mouth and said in a stern tone, "Is the legitimate eldest daughter of the Shi family here to assert her sovereignty? Why didn't you listen to me at the banquet when you said you wanted to keep Ling Ling? Now she's been kicked out of the house in public. Who are you pretending to be?"
Luo Yuan frowned. She didn't like Qin Niao, but considering that she was Xi Jin's cousin and Xi Jin helped her find her relatives, she didn't say anything.
"Nioniu!" Shi Ling shook her head at Qin Nioniu. She knew that Qin Nioniu was protecting her, but these words were too aggressive.
However, she also wondered what Luo Yuan was up to.
Is this a test to see if she will return to the Shi family and fight for status?
Shi Ling immediately put herself in the right place as the fake daughter, "I have nothing to do with the Shi family in Yuncheng anymore!"
In the Shi family, the only thing she cares about is her grandmother who is in a nursing home abroad.
Qin Niao didn't like Luo Yuan, so he pulled Shi Ling behind him and said to Luo Yuan in a threatening manner, "Don't worry about where Ling Ling lives. I'm here anyway, so she won't end up living on the streets even if she doesn't return to the Shi family."
Luo Yuan felt that Qin Niao was indeed unpleasant, and his words were likened to those of a man who had eaten explosives. However, Shi Ling was still the one she liked. "Shi Ling, just be careful and pay attention to your surroundings. Also, this is my number, not a scam."
Luo Yuan called Shi Ling and asked her to save her number.
Shi Ling was slightly stunned.
This call also came last night.
As soon as she woke up, she saw the charcoal-burned female ghost.
So it was Luo Yuan who reminded her?
"Luo Yuan, thank you." Shi Ling said sincerely.
Luo Yuan nodded lightly, then left with her large box of exercises.
Qin Niao was very unhappy. "Hey, Luo Yuan, what do you mean? Pay more attention to your surroundings and sow discord between Ling Ling and me? You're wrong. Shi Ling and I are the best of sisters. Even if she has any problems, she will only contact me."
Luo Yuan was so focused on going home to do his homework that he didn't bother to pay any attention to her.
Qin Niao held Shi Ling's arm and complained about her all the way, even more angry than when he complained about Mu Ziyue before. At the end, he fiercely forced Shi Ling to swear, "I don't care, you have to write the 53rd exam I gave you first, and you are not allowed to write the compulsory exam questions she gave you!"
Shi Ling said helplessly, "Qin Niao, are you childish? Luo Yuan is the victim, and I'm the beneficiary, possibly even the daughter of the culprit. Even if she hates me, that's understandable. But she's so calm towards me, which shows she's reasonable. So, to keep things fair, I won't do either of these two sets of exercises."
"You dare!"
Qin Niao chased her and tickled her.
Shi Ling smiled and ran away, holding a pile of exercise books in her hands.
Not far away, Luo Yuan saw two people chasing each other, laughing continuously, and their eyes stayed on each other for a long time.
How strange.
Logically speaking, Shi Ling's parents switched her and made her stay in the Shi family to enjoy a good life for her, causing her to suffer so much. Even if she didn't hate Shi Ling, she wouldn't like her either. But the moment she saw her, she inexplicably developed a liking for her.
Could it be...
Because Shi Ling is pretty?
