Chapter 84 seems like an outsider.
She secretly hated herself for being inefficient. The first thing she should have done after returning to Beijing was to clean up the mess she had made of, along with her man.
No, it should have been earlier.
From the moment she received that letter and couldn't get Wen Jinzhou back, she should have dealt with her.
Now……
Xu Shanshan entered the room with some difficulty breathing.
Wen Changyu suppressed his excitement and approached her. "Shanshan..." He walked to Xu Shanshan's side, then pointed to Xie Zhizhi sitting on the sofa, being hugged by He Yuzhi. His eyes were slightly red with excitement. "Shanshan, I have found our daughter."
Xu Shanshan's body trembled slightly with hatred.
But others who saw it simply thought she was just excited.
Wen Changyu reached out and held her shoulders. Because he empathized with her emotions, his eyes reddened even more. Then he pulled her into his arms and said, "She is our daughter, our Jinci, our biological daughter."
Wen Changyu seemed to know what she was going to ask, and answered her question by question, even though she didn't ask a single one.
"Bang!" Someone fell to the ground.
Everyone looked over at the sound and saw Wen Qianqian sitting on the ground, her face pale.
Wen Qianqian, who had collapsed to the ground, was deathly pale. She shook her head and murmured, "No, no, no..."
Xu Shanshan, who had been trembling and completely exhausted, suddenly found her strength. She pushed away Wen Changyu, who was holding her, and rushed to Wen Qianqian, who had fallen to the ground. With a look of heartache, she pulled Wen Qianqian into her arms.
Wen Qianqian continued to shake her head in her arms, then asked in a tearful voice, "Mommy, this isn't real, is it?"
"I'm your daughter, aren't I?" she asked, crying.
Having raised her since she was a child, it was impossible for Wen Changyu not to have feelings for her. So, seeing Wen Qianqian fall to the ground and cry, Wen Changyu couldn't possibly remain indifferent.
He quickly walked over to Wen Qianqian, and was just about to squat down to comfort her when he heard Xu Shanshan say in a slightly cold tone, "Of course, your mother only has you as her daughter."
It goes without saying who she was referring to with that cold tone.
Wen Changyu's concerned expression froze, wondering if he had misheard.
Wen Qianqian was also raised by them, and they had feelings for her. Wen Changyu could understand that he was afraid she would be sad, but what did he mean by... having only one daughter?
Wen Changyu subconsciously looked at Xie Zhizhi, who was sitting on the sofa and leaning against He Yuzhi's arms.
Xie Zhizhi maintained her languid posture, and even her expression seemed that of an outsider.
Wen Changyu breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression remained slightly anxious; Zhizhi seemed like an outsider...
Wen Changyu looked at Xie Zhizhi again. He Yuzhi had already covered Xie Zhizhi's ears with her hands and then assured Xie Zhizhi, "Grandma only recognizes you as her granddaughter. No one can change the fact that you are my biological granddaughter."
Xu Shanshan said those words intentionally for Xie Zhizhi to hear.
He Yuzhi said this intentionally for Wen Qianqian to hear.
Xie Zhizhi didn't react much to Xu Shanshan's words, but Wen Qianqian burst into tears in Xu Shanshan's arms after hearing He Yuzhi's words.
Xu Shanshan felt extremely distressed and turned to her mother-in-law to complain, "Mom, why do you always say things like that?"
"Qianqian also calls you Grandma, why do you have to say such hurtful things?"
He Yuzhi objected, "What's so offensive about it? This is my own granddaughter!" The old lady said matter-of-factly.
Even a comment about her own granddaughter left Xu Shanshan speechless.
Xie Zhizhi: Oh ho, it seems this mother prefers her adopted daughter and doesn't treat her biological daughter well!
Thank goodness she had a body swapped. If the original owner came back, facing a biological mother like that and an adopted daughter like Wen Qianqian, tsk tsk, it would be like jumping from one den of wolves into another!
And how heartbroken and sad must one be to see their own mother looking at them with such disdain?
Thinking about it, Xie Zhizhi asked in a teasy tone, "Grandma, does Mom not like me?"
Before He Yuzhi could speak, Xie Zhizhi pointed at Wen Qianqian in a teasing tone and asked, "Is this Sister Qianqian?"
"Grandma, didn't you say she was adopted?"
Why does she insist that she's the biological daughter of this family?
"She seems to dislike me a lot?"
Xie Zhizhi's words were like knives, stabbing into Wen Qianqian and Xu Shanshan. Wen Qianqian's face turned even paler from the shock of her words, and she cried even harder.
Xu Shanshan hated the daughter she had personally abandoned even more.
She now regrets it even more. She was too soft-hearted when she was young and didn't take a permanent step. Instead, she deliberately caused an accident to kill her, leaving her alive to annoy her now.
With trembling hands, she hugged Wen Qianqian, who was crying even harder, and then turned to Xie Zhizhi and snapped, "Shut up!"
Xie Zhizhi immediately buried her face in He Yuzhi's arms, "Grandma, I'm so scared!"
Xie Zhizhi had already determined that Xu Shanshan didn't like her, so she had no intention of getting along with Xu Shanshan. Therefore, she decisively chose to complain to her backer.
Anyway, given Xu Shanshan's personality, Xie Zhizhi figured that no matter how much she did or how much she suffered, Xu Shanshan would never treat her with maternal kindness.
If that's the case, why should you wrong yourself?
He Yuzhi hugged Xie Zhizhi tightly, then scolded Xu Shanshan in a bad mood, "What are you doing?"
"Our child has been missing for twenty years, and we finally found him. Today is his first day back home, and all we got was this kind of attitude from you?"
As the old lady spoke, she angrily pulled Xie Zhizhi to her feet, saying, "Come on, sweetie, come with Grandma. Since she doesn't like you, you can go and stay with Grandma."
Xie Zhizhi nodded obediently.
Looking at the two of them, Wen Changyu felt overwhelmed and finally decided to tell his mother, "Mom, don't make things worse."
He Yuzhi: "??"
How did she cause trouble?
After talking about his mother, Wen Changyu looked at Xu Shanshan and asked, "What's wrong with you today?"
"Is it because Zhizhi just came back and you haven't recovered yet?" Wen Changyu tried his best to find a way out for her.
Xu Shanshan hugged Wen Qianqian and thought quickly. Xie Zhizhi was back. As the Wen family's biological daughter, if things continued like this, her Qianqian would definitely lose. In the end, all the good things would fall into Xie Zhizhi's hands.
Even with her favoritism, Qianqian would only get a tiny fraction of what she deserves.
She can't let that happen.
So Xu Shanshan started to cry. With tears streaming down her face, she hugged Wen Qianqian tightly, saying, "Qianqian is my child. She has been with me all these years. She is my child."
Xu Shanshan used these words to cover up her outrageous behavior just now.
This led people to misunderstand that she reacted that way because she was too deeply in love with Wen Qianqian and was afraid of losing her.
As expected, Wen Changyu understood what she meant and said to her with heartache in his eyes, "Qianqian was also raised by us, so naturally she is our child too."
"Even if Zhizhi comes back, she will just have another younger sister, and Zhizhi will have another older sister."
Wen Changyu spoke of a family reunion.
Wen Qianqian's inner thoughts: Bah, whose sister is she?
Xie Zhizhi's inner thoughts: Ha, sister? She doesn't even deserve it?
With Wen Changyu's help, Xu Shanshan and Wen Qianqian got up from the ground.
Then Xu Shanshan said to Xie Zhizhi, "It's good that you're back. From now on, you should get along well with Qianqian. She's your older sister, so you should take good care of her."
