When Ye Linlin heard Ye Zhixi's words, she was about to say something when Ye Zhixi, with tears in her eyes, spoke first: "The teacher investigated our backgrounds just so that I could go home. He didn't want to make a mistake, so he had to investigate the matter between me and Ye Linlin just to be on the safe side."
"I know that it is not a good thing to investigate Ye Linlin's background without authorization. Here, I apologize to Ms. Ye Linlin on behalf of the teacher."
Ye Zhixi stood up and bowed to Ye Linlin.
Ye Linlin's words were stuck in his throat, hesitant to speak, and he felt that saying anything wouldn't make sense.
Ye Qi didn't want to miss the opportunity and spoke first: "Mom and Dad, do you still remember the Taoist priest who said I was in poor health when I was little?"
"I remember," Ye Ji nodded.
Ye Qi smiled lightly: "I've always wondered why my health improved as soon as I went to the countryside. This Taoist priest is so amazing. I wanted to ask him when I could go home. Luckily, I'm in Beijing now, so I went to see the Taoist priest yesterday."
Ye Qi turned on the voice recorder.
The Taoist priest's words were relayed.
The Taoist priest admitted that he conspired with Liu Qin to switch the children, and that he poisoned Ye Qi when she was young in order to drive her away. He said that once Ye Qi went to the countryside, the poison would stop and she would naturally recover.
Hearing this, even the usually good-tempered Ye Ji was enraged to learn that the family's nanny had poisoned his child right under his nose: "Liu Qin! Get out here!"
Startled by the noise, Liu Qin immediately came out. She wiped her wet hands on her apron and asked, puzzled, "What's wrong, sir?"
Ye Ji pointed at Liu Qin, furious: "How dare you do such a vicious thing!"
Liu Qin looked completely bewildered: "What...what did I do?"
Enraged, Ye Ji threw the paternity test results and photos on Liu Qin: "Look what you've done! You dared to switch my child with Wanwan's and even poisoned my Qiqi!"
Liu Qin picked up the photos and paternity test results with trembling hands. When she saw what they said, she was so frightened that she knelt down, feeling as if the sky was about to fall.
She hid it very well!
"Sir... there must be some mistake. How could I... possibly switch the children? I wouldn't dare poison them even if you gave me a hundred lives!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qi raised an eyebrow, thinking, "She's really stubborn."
She pressed the recorder, and Xu Xu's voice came through, explaining everything clearly.
After listening to the recording, Liu Qin's face turned deathly pale. She never expected that Xu Xu would betray her!
The die is cast...
It doesn't matter that she's been discovered. As long as Linlin is still in the Ye family, she will never lose!
She knelt on the ground, her voice choked with sobs:
“I’m so sorry, sir! I was blinded by greed and did all these stupid things in order to give my daughter a better life! I know that nothing I say can undo everything, but I am willing to accept any punishment to atone for my past misdeeds.”
"But Linlin is innocent... She never knew about this, never knew she wasn't a child of the Ye family..."
Having said all she wanted to say, she wouldn't say another word. Saying more would only complicate matters. All she needed to do was distance herself from Linlin!
Ye Qi, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, surely understood Liu Qin's thoughts.
She handed the phone directly to Shi Wanwan, who was closest to her.
Shi Wanwan saw in the chat history that Ye Linlin called Liu Qin "Mom" repeatedly.
He even said that after he inherits the shares of the Ye family company, the first thing he will do is to give them to Liu Qin!
Upon seeing these words, Shi Wanwan's anger flared up.
She originally thought that Ye Linlin had just been switched at birth and that Ye Linlin was innocent, but she never expected that the other party had been in cahoots with her and had been secretly in love with her, keeping them in the dark!
Seeing that the time was about right, Ye Zhixi handed over her phone and said softly, "Mom, you've been so good to me. You're the first person in the family to speak to me gently. I don't want you to keep being deceived and torn between me and Miss Ye Linlin."
Shi Wanwan saw a video playing on her phone.
On the screen.
Ye Linlin and Liu Qin hugged each other, Ye Linlin's face filled with jealousy and hatred: "Mom, don't worry, once I inherit the Ye family's shares, no one will be able to bully us! The Ye family treats you like a maid, constantly ordering you around, it's outrageous! When I become powerful, we'll turn the Ye family against them! We'll take everything that belongs to us!"
Liu Qin wiped away her tears: "Good! Good child! It wasn't for nothing that your mother suffered so much for you. Mom will wait for you!"
Upon hearing her own voice, Ye Linlin's face turned deathly pale. She hadn't expected this scene to be captured on camera!
Upon hearing this, Liu Qin slumped to the ground, her face ashen.
It’s over!
We're doomed!
These things have all been discovered!
She had hidden it very well, keeping it a secret for so many years, thinking that the Ye family would never find out. She was just waiting for her daughter to kick them out and inherit the Ye family, so she could enjoy a life of luxury.
No one will ever look down on her again!
I won't be a nanny forever!
But... why was everything suddenly exposed and revealed today?!
Ye Linlin immediately knelt down and grabbed Shi Wanwan's leg: "Mom! You have to believe me! Linlin has no ill intentions! They must have deliberately made up a false story to smear Linlin!"
Although Shi Wanwan is usually very gentle and seems to have no temper, she is definitely not stupid!
Shi Wanwan said in a deep voice: "Get out!"
"You disgust me, Liu Linlin."
Shi Wanwan initially thought Liu Linlin was her child and wholeheartedly wanted to treat the child well. She also knew that Ye Qi didn't like Liu Linlin, but both of them were her children, and she just couldn't be good to either of them.
So Shi Wanwan always turned a blind eye to the little tricks Ye Qi and Liu Linlin secretly made.
When she learned that her biological daughter was not Liu Linlin but Ye Zhixi, she wanted to treat Ye Zhixi even better to make up for the past.
