Ji Yanli never expected to see Ji Yuwei here.
She was surrounded by so many reporters.
Judging from the phones those people were holding up, it seemed like they were still broadcasting live.
"Yuwei?" Ji Yanli took a deep breath. "Why didn't you tell me you were coming? Come home with me first, and I'll explain everything to you."
"Don't my older brother and grandfather both dislike my coming home?"
"Even the eldest brother didn't tell me the address of the new residence the Ji family bought in Beijing; I had to come here with the reporters."
Ji Yuwei was in tears in front of countless cameras.
They looked as if they had been struck by the truth, and their appearance was pitiful.
She sobbed, “No wonder my grandfather and brothers have always been indifferent to me since I was a child, and even sent me abroad for high school.”
“But as soon as Niannian came back, Grandpa and my brothers doted on her like a treasure. As for me, they made me move out and wouldn’t even welcome me into the Ji family’s house.”
"I originally thought that even if I didn't do well enough, I would try my best to please my grandfather and brothers."
"So, no matter how hard I try, it's useless. Because I'm not a member of the Ji family at all, how could the Ji family be genuinely good to me?"
“But brother, my father saved your father, so why did you force my mother to her death? I could have had a happy and fulfilling family, but I became an orphan. You adopted me, but you don’t treat me like a granddaughter or a sister at all.”
"I'd rather have grown up in an orphanage. At least then I would have met some people who genuinely cared for me..."
Ji Yuwei did indeed come with reporters and was broadcasting live.
All of these accusations were heard by the viewers watching the live stream.
The truth that was revealed had already aroused public outrage.
What Ji Yuwei said was even more heartbreaking.
Live stream chat, bullet comments.
[Damn, the Ji family is disgusting! They didn't even tell Ji Yuwei the address of their newly bought villa. They really don't treat her like family at all!]
[Now that they've found their biological granddaughter and sister, who would care about an adopted daughter who isn't related by blood? Human nature is so selfish.]
I can't even imagine what kind of cold treatment and contempt Ji Yuwei endured growing up in the Ji family. Could the Ji family have abused her?
[It turns out Ji Yuwei is so pitiful. I actually believed those rumors about her before. I'm so ashamed...]
Despite her difficult life experiences, Ji Yuwei has become a popular female celebrity, which shows how hard-working she is.
[Even accidentally pushing someone off a building is manslaughter. Now that the statute of limitations has expired, can't the Ji family be arrested? So rich and so ruthless! Let the Ji family go to jail!]
[Boycott all companies under the Ji family]
...
"Yuwei, things are not as they are on the internet at all," Ji Yanli said under pressure, having no choice but to explain in front of the camera.
"It is true that your father died trying to save Dad back then. But it is also true that your mother suffered a mental breakdown due to the shock, came to the Ji family and set fire to them, and then jumped off the roof."
"As you know, Grandpa's lung disease was very serious; it was caused by that fire."
"If we were trying to cover up the fact that we accidentally pushed your mother off the building with a fire, why would we put the whole family in a fire and put Grandpa in such a dangerous situation?"
That makes a lot of sense.
If the Ji family really intended to use arson to cover up manslaughter, why would they leave the Ji family members at the scene of the fire?
Several reporters immediately looked at Ji Yuwei.
"Is Grandpa's lung disease serious?"
Ji Yuwei looked completely bewildered.
"When was Grandpa's lung disease ever serious?"
"Grandpa went on a trip last month, am I remembering wrong?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yanli looked up abruptly, only then realizing that something was amiss.
He originally thought that Yuwei had suddenly learned about her background online and, in her grief, had come with the reporter.
But what is Ji Yuwei saying now?
Before Niannian returned to Jiangcheng, her grandfather suffered a lung attack and nearly died. She rushed back after learning about it.
Why is she acting as if Grandpa doesn't have lung disease at all, and that it's just an excuse he's making up?
"What are you saying, Yuwei?"
Ji Yanli said in disbelief, "You knew that Grandpa was critically ill before, and you also knew that it was Niannian who cured Grandpa's lung disease..."
"Did Nian Nian cure Grandpa's lung disease?"
Ji Yuwei was even more bewildered, "How could Niannian, a high school student, cure Grandpa's lung disease of more than 20 years and save his life?"
"Brother, you might as well say you found the best doctor from abroad and cured Grandpa's lung disease..."
-
Ji Family Villa.
When Grandpa Ji heard Ji Yuwei say these words, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Ji Xiuan realized what was happening and almost sneered, "Well done, Ji Yuwei."
"It seems that it wasn't a trap set by Ji's competitors, but rather Ji Yuwei who set a snare for our Ji family."
"What so-called insider leak—could that insider be her?"
"Did she bring these reporters on purpose? She deliberately blocked the entrance and started broadcasting live, trying to catch us off guard before we could prepare a countermeasure?"
"Our Ji family has raised a good-hearted ingrate."
It's no wonder Ji Xiuan thought that way.
If Ji Yuwei was truly shocked and saddened to learn the truth online, her first reaction would have been to call home to verify it. Why would she contact a reporter immediately?
Not only did she bring reporters along, but she also cried and complained in front of the live broadcast camera, as if she had lived a pitiful and hard life in the Ji family for so many years.
This is an attempt to garner sympathy for himself, while pointing the finger at the Ji family.
Even the facts told by the eldest brother were all distorted and presented as innocent!
"how so……"
Grandpa Ji really couldn't believe it.
“We have never mistreated Yuwei in all these years of our Ji family.”
"How could she do such a thing? And when did she find out about her background?"
Only Jiang Nian knew that Ji Yuwei had known all along that she was not the Ji family's biological daughter.
However, Ji Yuwei had never shown it before. Because she had no intention of giving up her identity as the daughter of the Ji family, she naturally pretended not to know.
So why would she suddenly do something like this now, trying to bring down the Ji family?
Jiang Nian suddenly remembered something and said to Grandpa Ji, "Grandpa, let me see your phone."
