At first Zhou Zhihao was unwilling to believe it. Who would be willing to believe that he was so blind?
But when the situation escalated, even the official Weibo account of the Yan family posted a message, which forced Zhou Zhihao to believe that Yan Shule was really the Yan family's daughter who had been missing for more than 20 years.
In a flash, Zhou Zhihao remembered that Yan Luofei was not invited to the Yan family's banquet. Could it be because the Yan family knew about the relationship between the three of them?
Even if the real daughter is found, Yan Luofei can still be treated as an ordinary junior as before, unless the relationship between the three of them is known.
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhihao felt a little nervous. If the Yan family didn't even recognize Yan Luofei because of this incident, then wouldn't what he did to Yan Shule bring revenge from the Yan family?
Although Zhou Zhihao scolded Yan Shule when he saw her last time, he was actually just doing it for Yan Luofei and the Yan family to see. Yan Shule was just a stepping stone for him to express his feelings for Yan Luofei. In fact, he knew very well in his heart that Yan Shule did not like him as much as he said.
Zhou Zhihao supported his forehead helplessly. If he had known that Yan Shule was of this identity, he would have been nicer to her at that time. It would have been like providing timely help. Maybe he could have become a real couple or even husband and wife with her. Would he still be afraid that the Yan family would not support him at that time?
But now, not making enemies is a good thing.
wrong! There is another breakthrough! Zhou Zhihao pondered and finally thought of a key point.
"What? You want me to go find Yan Shule to reminisce about the past?" Yan Luofei looked at Zhou Zhihao in disbelief. She really didn't understand how such a genius of his could come up with this idea.
Zhou Zhihao mistakenly thought that Yan Luofei was just a little surprised to hear his proposal. He nodded confidently and said very considerately, "Didn't you say that you and the real daughter of the Yan family were best friends when you were in the orphanage? Although you had some misunderstandings before, you were good friends in childhood after all. You must have an indelible relationship and many common memories, right?"
Zhou Zhihao sighed and said, "I don't want to be the murderer who hurts your friendship."
Yan Luofei looked at Zhou Zhihao's affectionate and innocent appearance and just found it funny. No matter how good Zhou Zhihao's reputation sounded, as if he was a self-made industry elite or a business upstart, when faced with this dilemma, he would lose his composure and come up with such a stupid idea.
Yan Luofei looked at Zhou Zhihao, who looked somewhat similar to Qiao Shen, and suddenly felt a little bored. After all, fake is fake and can't be compared with the real thing.
She couldn't help but wonder, if it were Qiao Shen, what would he do if he faced such a thing?
However, Zhou Zhihao said something very right. If it weren't for him, the conflict between her and Yan Shule would not exist. She knew that Yan Shule had lost his memory. If it weren't for this, she would not have been so cautious and bold to go to the Yan family to recognize her relatives.
So for Yan Shule, she was indeed an old friend whom she had forgotten. There was no friendship between them at all, and they even became enemies because of Zhou Zhihao. But what if Zhou Zhihao was no longer around?
Yan Luofei smiled faintly and said, "Okay."
Anyway, this is not the first time she has lied. If she can get some benefits from the Yan family, that would be great. As for Zhou Zhihao, she has nothing to worry about. Even if she puts him aside temporarily, she has reasons to deal with it. Not to mention that she is pregnant with Zhou Zhihao's child, so she is not afraid that Zhou Zhihao will not recognize him.
But before Yan Luofei took action, a large group of people on the Internet had already begun to "speak up" for her, and a large number of posts appeared as if they knew the inside story.
"shock! Yan Luofei was once the adopted daughter of the Yan family, but is now cruelly abandoned.
"It turns out that Eryan was once a playmate"
"Yan Luofei is so pitiful. She has been with the Yan family for twenty years, but she was abandoned as soon as Yan Luofei came back."
These posts contain half-truths and half-false stories told in the tone of insiders, saying that Yan Luofei and Yan Shule were playmates in an orphanage, and later Yan Shule was injured and lost her memory. Yan Luofei thought she was dead, so she came to the Yan family with a jade pendant to help recognize her, and helped Yan Shule to be in his arms for twenty years. Now Yan Shule has returned to the Yan family, but Yan Luofei has been kicked out.
These posts were written with true feelings and were very touching. As expected, many people immediately began to scold Yan Shule and the Yan family for being heartless and cold-blooded.
But gradually, many "rational" people began to appear in the posts.
"It seems weird to me. To put it another way, after Yan Shule was injured and lost her memory, Yan Luofei took her jade pendant to the Yan family to recognize her as her relative. As an orphan, she enjoyed the Yan family's care for twenty years? And what about helping Yan Shule to be happy? Do you have to be so shameless?"
"The above answer is correct. No wonder I always feel something is strange when reading this post."
"I checked and found out that Yan Luofei has been attending private schools since elementary school, with tuition fees of hundreds of thousands a year. According to insiders, she also owns shops and apartments, which were also donated by the Yan family. So when the real eldest daughter of the Yan family was still suffering in the orphanage, she was enjoying the treatment of a rich lady!"
"You can't say that. She means well."
"She meant well but ended up with bad results. If she hadn't shown up with the jade pendant and said Yan Shule was dead, the Yan family might have found him long ago."
"What I said before is really terrifying to think about."
"Am I the only one who is more curious about how it could be such a coincidence? Yan Shule was injured and lost her memory just as she was about to go and recognize her relatives with the jade pendant..."
"No way, a five-year-old girl can be so scheming?"
"Don't underestimate a five-year-old child. My four-year-old nephew knows how to play tricks on his mother, not to mention the children who grew up in an orphanage. They have a hard life and are sensible at an early age."
"Wait for an explanation from the Yan family. No matter what, Yan Shule is innocent, but what exactly happened between Yan Luofei and the Yan family? I hope the truth will come out one day."
At the same time, someone took a photo of Yan Shule going to the police station to report the case accompanied by his family. He claimed that he had recovered some of his memory and remembered that his injury and the fire in the orphanage were both human-caused. He hoped that the police could investigate the matter thoroughly.
Yan Shule deliberately did not mention Yan Luofei's name, and her report to the police was actually just a formality.
Twenty years have passed, the traceability period has basically passed, and there is no physical evidence to authenticate it, not to mention that Yan Luofei was only five years old at that time.
If Yan Shule directly said that it was Yan Luofei who did it, some people might combine the previous revelations and come up with conspiracy theories that the Yan family and she were deliberately targeting Yan Luofei.
Not to mention, twenty years have passed, and Yan Shule even lost his memory in the meantime. Now he suddenly says he remembers it and says Yan Luofei is the murderer. How many people would believe him?
However, just because this kind of thing cannot be said explicitly does not mean that netizens cannot be allowed to think about it. Many netizens are like this. If you put the truth nakedly in front of them, they may not believe it. But if you give them some clues and let them infer the result you want, they may believe it without a doubt.
So when the news that Yan Shule and his family had called the police came out, combined with some previous revelations and the Yan family's sudden change in attitude towards Yan Luofei, many "smart people" on the Internet felt that they had already discovered the truth of the matter.
"So, could this murderer really be that person?"
"I know who you want to talk about upstairs."
"It's just too scary, isn't it?"
Not only these netizens were guessing, Yan Luofei, who had originally planned to find Yan Shule to "reminisce the past", was also very nervous at the moment. She was not guessing who the real murderer was, after all, no one knew better than her. She was just guessing, whether Yan Shule really recovered his memory? How much memory did she recover? More importantly, will she ever remember anything in the future?
These questions were like a mountain pressing on Yan Luofei's chest, almost making it difficult for her to breathe.
At the same time, Zhou Zhihao, who had seen the news online, cast a suspicious look at her, which made her very uneasy.
Judging from the current situation, everything they had planned before was just wishful thinking. There was no place for her in the Yan family anymore. It was very likely that the Yan family members were already suspecting her. At this time, she could only hold on to Zhou Zhihao tightly.
But no one knows what kind of person Zhou Zhihao is better than him. Even though Zhou Zhihao does have some feelings for her now, this man has always put interests above all else, and she is not sure how long this feeling can last.
Zhou Zhihao looked at Yan Luofei in disbelief, he couldn't guess what she was planning behind her calm and beautiful face. Regret and annoyance completely took over him. If he had treated Yan Shule well at the beginning, if he had not banned her because of Yan Luofei, his situation would have been better than it is now.
His affection was actually even more shallow than Yan Luofei had expected.
Yan Shule felt that these people's thoughts were unimportant. After returning from the police station, she continued her leisurely and healthy life.
It was not until Xue Yang called and said that the game had begun preparations for internal testing and the web drama had entered the final stage that Yan Shule realized that he had been in Jing City for a long time and it was time to go back to Hai City.
However, she did not go back alone, but brought her family with her, including Xu Yazhi, Xu Yating, and Wu Tianying, mother and daughter.
As for the men in the family, they went to work as needed and dealt with the aftermath as needed. Old Master Yan, who originally had a lot of free time, went to the outskirts of Beijing to recuperate at the invitation of an old friend, so he did not come with them.
He also knew that he, with his old bones, was more comfortable with the old guys, and there was nothing fun about playing with these young people. He also couldn't go shopping in the mall or have a spa, so it was best for him to stay at home.
