Luo Qing said in horror again.
Ran Hongying quickly put down the kitchen utensils in her hands and ran out of the kitchen. Sure enough, she saw a young girl sitting on the sofa at home.
Although the girl had grown up a lot, that delicate face was still the same as Ran Xia, whom she had sold to the mountainous area six years ago.
But, how is this possible?
Six years ago, she clearly sold Ran Xia to a remote mountain village as a child bride. How did she come back?
Coming back to her senses, Ran Hongying quickly said to Luo Qing beside her: "Xiaoqing, go to your room and do your homework. Your sister and I have something to talk about alone."
Luo Qing didn't ask any more questions and went straight upstairs.
Ran Hongying then looked at Ran Xia and blurted out subconsciously: "Ran Xia, you...why are you back?"
"What's wrong? Aunt is unhappy to see me back?" Ran Xia glanced at Ran Hongying lightly, with a harmless smile on the corner of her mouth.
But in Ran Hongying's opinion, this smile was so eerie that it was a little scary.
"I...that's not what I meant."
Ran Hongying quickly pretended to go forward and ask about her well-being: "You went missing six years ago, and your aunt was very worried. Where have you been for these six years? Why didn't you come home?"
Ran Xia stood up and looked around the villa: "Aunt, it seems that you have lived very well in the past six years. You even live in a villa."
At this point, she raised her thick eyebrows and smiled charmingly: "Without me, you are really getting better and better."
But Ran Hongying inexplicably felt that there was an unspeakable danger hidden under that harmless smile.
"Xiao Xia, how can you say that? Six years ago, your aunt took you to the market, and you got lost on your own..."
"Aunt, was it me who got lost, or did you sell me to someone else as a child bride? I believe you know better than anyone else, right?" Ran Xia's mouth slowly curled up into a playful arc.
Ran Hongying: “…”
She didn't expect Ran Xia to have such a huge change? ?
Wasn't Ran Xia a timid crybaby in the past?
For the sake of the overall situation, Ran Hongying chose to step forward and hold Ran Xia's hand, trying to coax her: "Xiao Xia, Auntie has always loved you very much, you know it."
The moment Ran Hongying touched Ran Xia, a scene suddenly flashed in Ran Xia's mind:
A few hours ago, Ran Hongying called her daughter Luo Ziqing, who had replaced her to go to the Ran family to recognize her relatives: "Ziqing, you are already sixteen years old. It will be time for you to inherit Chen Bilan's estate. When the time comes, you must not reveal the truth."
The girl on the other end of the phone smiled faintly: "Mom, don't worry, my uncle has full confidence in my identity."
When Ran Xia saw the scene in her mind, her pupils suddenly shrank. The next second, she gently pulled her hand away from Ran Hongying's: "Aunt, where is your good daughter Luo Ziqing?"
Ran Hongying's face was a little embarrassed: "Ziqing she...she..."
"Back then, you secretly stole the token my mother left me and asked your daughter to go back to the Ran family to recognize my relatives, right?"
Ran Xia raised the corners of her lips, her tone seemingly indifferent: "But aunt, have you forgotten? Even if my cousin has the token my mother gave me, so what? She doesn't have my birthmark. Do you think she can successfully obtain my mother's property in my name?"
When Ran Hongying heard this, her face suddenly turned ugly.
That year, when Ran Xia was just born, her mother Chen Bilan died of heavy bleeding.
Her father Ran Dongcheng asked a fortune teller to tell her fortune, who said that Ran Xia had killed her mother. So Ran Dongcheng sent Ran Xia to her home in the countryside for foster care.
But Ran Xia's mother had made a will a long time ago, and all the inheritance must be inherited by Ran Xia. So when Ran Xia was ten years old, Ran Dongcheng sent someone to pick up Ran Xia, hoping to improve the relationship between father and daughter.
Just as the woman was thinking this, a mocking voice suddenly came: "Auntie, I came back this time and brought you a big gift. Do you want to know what it is?"
