"If she already knew, given her personality, she certainly wouldn't sit idly by. She's enjoyed a princess-like life for so many years, and suddenly being forced back to the mountains, how could she possibly bear it? So, to prevent Sister Song from coming back, her first priority would be to get rid of you and me, so that Mom and Dad would only have her as their only daughter, and she could rightfully inherit all of Mom and Dad's property."
Shu Ying gripped Xie Zhiyan's hand even tighter. No wonder she kept provoking Xie Wanying even though there was no real grudge between them.
It turns out that Sister Song held her life in her hands.
"But if all our guesses are correct, then who switched Sister Song? Could it be that Mom and Dad don't even recognize their own daughter? That's highly unlikely, unless Sister Song was switched at birth and Mom and Dad didn't even have a chance to see her."
Parents are very perceptive about their children's appearance; once they've seen their child once, they won't be confused.
Shu Ying was startled by her own guess, and Xie Zhiyan's expression grew even colder.
“I roughly know who it is. My parents said that they were busy with scientific research. My grandparents passed away early. When my mother had her first child, she had no experience. My father specially found someone to help. However, that person was heavily pregnant, about the same amount of time as my mother. My father didn’t want her to work hard, but she said that her family was poor and needed money. She said she could do anything. My parents felt sorry for her and let her work at home for five months until my sister was born. It seemed that she was also about to give birth. After she gave birth, my parents paid her last salary. After that, the nanny’s mother took care of my sister until she turned one year old.”
Xie Zhiyan was already aware of these old stories.
"Now it seems that the only person who could get close enough to replace the two children is the nanny from back then."
After figuring everything out, Shu Ying felt horrified. The children had been switched right under their noses, allowing the two children to experience completely different lives.
Shu Ying sat closer. "Now that we have a suspicion, we must investigate. But we can't alert them yet."
When Xie Wanying goes crazy, she becomes completely lawless.
Xie Zhiyan nodded. Shu Ying felt a surge of anger thinking about Xie Wanying's inconsistent behavior over the years.
"If this is true, then it's a pity for Sister Song. She was forced into marriage by her parents, and that man is unreliable. He drinks, gambles, and beats people. A few days ago, he shamelessly came to the compound. If I hadn't chased him away, who knows how much trouble he would have caused."
Shu Ying's disdainful expression was both arrogant and adorable. Xie Zhiyan gently stroked her little finger, "Is this person really that awful? You must have had a hard time."
Unexpectedly, they had already met, but while he was hospitalized, Shu Ying still had to support her entire family.
“You are the head of our family. From now on, you will be the one in charge here. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west.”
Shu Ying was flattered by Xie Zhiyan and accepted his praise without hesitation.
"I just feel sorry for Sister Song. If it's really as we expect, Mom and Dad will definitely be sad."
