Yi Qilin spoke these words without the slightest hint of unease.
"As everyone knows, Grandma's favorite person is my cousin Yi Tianran. Ever since she came back, Grandma had already made a decision in secret. Just two days ago, she personally signed the share transfer agreement and transferred all of Yi's shares to Yi Tianran!"
These words shocked the entire audience.
"What? It was actually transferred to Yi Tianran? Didn't she just come back? She knows nothing about the Yi family business, how could she be qualified to sit in the position of heir?"
"Besides, she's a woman, how could she possibly know anything about the struggles in the business world!"
"That's right! If the Yi family falls into her hands, won't they be doomed in the end?"
Just as everyone was expressing their dissatisfaction, the door was opened and a figure slowly walked in. "I know that no one believes in my abilities. In fact, I don't think I am qualified to be the heir of the Yi family."
Lu Xuanyi walked in step by step. "So, after much consideration, I have decided to transfer all my shares to my cousin, Mr. Yi Qilin."
As she spoke, she took out a document from her bosom, "I invited everyone here today to be my witness."
The entire room fell silent for a moment.
At the crucial moment, Yi Qilin asked one more question, feigning concern: "Cousin, are you really sure you've thought this through? Won't you regret it?"
“Of course—” Lu Xuanyi’s words were cut short by a deep, cold voice: “Of course that’s impossible.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes instinctively turned to look in the direction of the sound.
Behind the old lady, the butler spoke again in a cold voice, "You think you're worthy of inheriting the Yi family?"
Yi Qilin's expression changed slightly, and he warned, "Butler Liu, when did it become your turn to speak here? Please recognize your place."
"My identity...do you really want to know?" The butler lifted his eyelids and glanced at him indifferently: "I'm afraid you'll regret it if you find out."
Yi Qilin scoffed dismissively, "Looks like you really think you're something special. Show me your identity, do you think I'm afraid of you?"
In the past, Yi Qilin would never have been so arrogant. But now he is only one step away from controlling the Yi family, and he no longer takes Old Madam Yi and the others seriously.
"You said it." The butler gave him a meaningful look, then took out a bottle of makeup remover and wet wipes from his bag.
For the next two minutes, everyone present witnessed a spectacular scene of a person appearing out of thin air.
A middle-aged male butler, after removing his disguise, transformed into a bright and beautiful woman.
And this face is too familiar. Isn't it exactly the same as the young lady standing next to Yi Qilin? But upon closer inspection, the same face presents a completely different appearance.
The "butler's" expression was even more aloof and ethereal, exuding a dashing and confident air in every gesture. In contrast, "Yi Tianran," standing beside Yi Qilin, appeared restrained and lacking in poise.
Everyone was stunned; their jaws nearly dislocated in shock.
"What... what's going on? How can there be two Miss Yis who look exactly alike?"
"What kind of technique was that? Am I seeing things? Or am I dreaming?!"
"Ouch—that hurts! This is clearly reality! Why are there two identical Miss Yis?!"
"It's simple." Yi Tianran put the makeup remover aside, raised an eyebrow slightly, and pointed in Lu Xuanyi's direction. "Because she's an imposter. I'm the real Yi Tianran!"
As his resounding words fell, the entire audience held their breath.
Lu Xuanyi's expression shifted from initial shock to a moment of realization, and she almost blurted out: "Yi Tianran, you're actually not dead?!"
Fortunately, Yi Qilin was prepared and immediately retorted aggressively, "You're talking nonsense! You're clearly the imposter. I don't know what methods you used to pretend to be my cousin, but my real cousin is the one next to me. If you don't believe me, you can ask my second uncle."
This is his own daughter, he wouldn't mistake her for someone else!
From the day he learned that Yi Tianran was still alive, he had anticipated that she would emerge and compete with him for the family fortune.
Therefore, he had made preparations in advance. As long as everyone believed that she was fake, even if she was the real Yi Tianran, she would not be able to return to the Yi family.
The only thing I didn't expect was that she could use disguise skills and even impersonate the old lady's housekeeper. When exactly did they get involved?
At this moment, his heart was still filled with unease.
Yi Hai, whose name was called, struggled to stand up from his chair. He knew that he had been caught red-handed and would have to rely entirely on Yi Qilin to survive.
So, of course he went along with him, pointing at Lu Xuanyi and saying, "Of course I wouldn't mistake her. Family ties are irreplaceable; she is my real daughter."
"Nonsense!" Just then, the old lady, who had been silent all along, stood up. "You think you can make people believe just by saying something casually? My precious granddaughter clearly has a heart-shaped birthmark on her left shoulder. It's unique and no one else can fake it."
As she spoke, she stood up, walked to Yi Tianran, and lifted her sleeve to reveal the birthmark on her left shoulder.
This is something that cannot be faked.
"Grandma, that's just your side of the story. We've never heard of my cousin having this birthmark on her shoulder! Could it be that you've all conspired to find a substitute?" Yi Qilin was lying through his teeth.
In fact, their efforts to identify who the real Yi Tianran was was a complete waste of energy.
This isn't ancient times; if you want to confirm someone's identity, you can just do a DNA test.
