"Say...say what? I'm telling you, don't try to change the subject, you cunning woman!" An Mingyu was so angry that she jumped up and down.
Lin Chuxia looked at him quietly, feeling a little disappointed.
“I genuinely consider you my younger brother, but you don’t seem to need me as your older sister.”
"What do you mean?" An Mingyu frowned.
"What do you mean? Then let me ask you, does it mean that if Mom and Dad publicly acknowledge my identity, they'll kick your dear sister An Mingzhu out of the house?"
“How is that possible?” An Mingyu retorted without even thinking.
"Yes, you know it's impossible. So how would publicly acknowledging my identity make her feel so ashamed that she can't live anymore?"
“But… if that happens, everyone will know that my sister isn’t the An family’s biological daughter, and they’ll gossip about her behind her back.”
After he said that, An Mingyu felt something in Lin Chuxia's eyes gradually cool down, and he couldn't help but feel a little flustered.
"Well... you know, my sister has always been in poor health, especially when she found out she wasn't our parents' biological daughter when she was eight years old. She was heartbroken and her health deteriorated even further..."
As An Mingyu spoke, her voice gradually weakened.
Lin Chuxia chuckled self-deprecatingly. "Yes, she learned about her origins when she was eight. But ten years have passed, and she still hasn't accepted it, has she?"
"She's not in good health, so I should give in to her, right?"
An Mingyu couldn't answer either of the two questions Lin Chuxia asked in a row.
"But have you ever thought about what about me? What identity should I have in the An family? I don't even want to acknowledge my own parents and brother. What do you think the servants in the An family will think of me? What will people outside say about me?"
“I…” An Mingyu opened her mouth, but didn’t know what to say.
Lin Chuxia turned her gaze directly to what was behind him, saying, "Since your older sister is here, I won't disturb you two siblings' reunion."
"No, that's not what I meant..." However, as soon as the words left her mouth, An Mingyu stopped abruptly.
If what he just said didn't mean that... then what did it mean?
An Mingyu watched Lin Chuxia's departing figure, feeling somewhat lost.
At this moment, An Mingzhu had already walked up to him: "Ayu, what did Chuxia just say to you? Why do you look like that?"
An Mingyu didn't answer her question, but murmured, "Sister, why don't we work together to persuade Mom and Dad to hold a banquet to publicly acknowledge Second Sister's identity? I think it doesn't seem too difficult."
An Mingzhu's expression changed, but she smiled nonchalantly and said, "Did Chuxia just tell you that? Chuxia is really something. Whether it's public or not, she's still Mom and Dad's child, isn't she? How can Chuxia care so much about these empty titles? She even deliberately made Grandpa misunderstand Mom and Dad. You don't know, after you came out, Grandpa threw a huge tantrum!"
After An Mingzhu finished speaking, she carefully examined An Mingyu's face, but she couldn't see the expression she wanted.
Her fingers, hanging by her sides, clenched slightly before she smiled and continued, "I have no problem with it. The title of Miss An originally belonged to Chu Xia. If she wants it back, let her take it back! I don't care about these empty titles. It's just that Chu Xia seems to have some misunderstandings about me..."
