Li family
Because Yan Xiluo had said two days ago that she was going to E country to retrieve live tongcao, she had several projects to deal with, which she handed over to Li Mufei and An Xinyue. After finishing her business at the company, Li Mufei rushed home.
Li Shangjue and Zhang Yiting were watching TV in the living room when Li Mufei picked up the remote and pressed the pause button. Li Shangjue frowned, wondering what had gotten into this child today.
"Feifei, what are you doing? Is something wrong?"
Zhang Yiting was puzzled by Li Mufei's actions.
"Aaaaaaah!!!"
Li Mufei stomped her feet excitedly and shouted, waving her hands. At this moment, she didn't look like a rich young lady at all; she looked like a madwoman!
Li Shangjue: "?...Is the child alright?"
Zhang Yiting was speechless. She seemed to have lost her mind...
Li Mufei's excitement gradually subsided, and she looked at her parents with shining eyes.
"Dad, Mom, I have something very important to tell you. Please be prepared and don't get excited."
Zhang Yiting was speechless. "Even if we're excited, would we be as excited as you were just now? You don't look like a rich young lady at all, my goodness."
Zhang Yiting has started to worry about whether her daughter will be able to get married in the future.
The quirky Li Mufei rolled her eyes.
"Shall I begin?" He didn't forget to keep everyone in suspense before he started.
Li Shangjue glanced at the time. "Feifei, if you don't tell me soon, Daddy is going to the company."
"Dad, Mom. My aunt found her biological daughter a few days ago and brought her home. She's one of my best friends! I'm so excited!"
Li Mufei said excitedly, feeling extremely happy just thinking about it.
"A biological daughter?" Li Shangjue and Zhang Yiting exclaimed in unison.
Li Mufei nodded frantically.
"Yes, my aunt switched babies with someone else back then. A few days ago, after learning the truth, a DNA test confirmed it. Apparently, Grandpa Yan was sick, so he rushed to bring the baby back. I only found out about this a couple of days ago; Luo Luo told me."
The Li and Su families, as in-laws, both knew about Yan Zhiguo's illness.
"Oh dear! How come your aunt didn't tell us about something this big? And you too, you knew about it a couple of days ago but kept it to yourself until now!"
Zhang Yiting looked at her carefree and unsteady daughter, wondering when she would ever mature.
"That's because Luo Luo went to get medicine for Grandpa Yan. She left all her work to Yue Yue and me. It was a bit urgent. I'll come back and tell you as soon as I'm done!"
Li Shangjue was a little confused. "Wait! Who is Luo Luo?"
Although they are best friends, Yan Xiluo has never been to Li Mufei's house. If she had gone home with her, she probably would have already discovered that Yan Xiluo is Yan Youting and Li Shuwen's daughter, because Yan Xiluo looks so much like Li Shuwen when she was young. Although she still looks like her now, she has aged a bit and there are bound to be some changes.
(As for why Li Mufei never thought Yan Xiluo resembled her aunt, it's because she has a very strong ability to distinguish things, which is basically obsessive-compulsive disorder. Even the slightest difference is perceived differently by her. For example, eyebrow shape, eye shape, lip shape, hairline—she can discern even the smallest detail. Add to that their different temperaments, personalities, and clothing styles, and she finds them even less similar, naturally leading her to never connect them.)
Li Mufei hadn't told her parents about Yan Xiluo either, because they had started the company secretly, and Yan Xiluo's status at the time wasn't suitable for their circle. Although she could bring her to banquets, Yan Xiluo didn't want to participate.
Therefore, Li Shangjue did not know who Luoluo was, but Li Mufei mentioned the name twice.
"Oh... I forgot to introduce her. Lin Xiluo, my best friend, now she should be called Yan Xiluo. She's your niece now, your own daughter."
At this moment, Li Mufei started grinning foolishly whenever Yan Xiluo was mentioned.
"I see. We'll visit my niece at the Yan family's house another day."
Li Shangjue made the suggestion, but in his heart he was thinking about Ranran. He wondered what his sister would do with her. Although Yan Yinran was a bit willful and capricious, she was his and Zhang Yiting's niece whom they had doted on for eighteen years. They could say that they would grant her every wish.
But at this moment, he felt even more sorry for his own niece who had been away for more than ten years, wondering how she was doing.
“Okay,” Zhang Yiting and Li Mufei replied in unison.
Li Shangjue felt that finding his niece was a great joy, and it wouldn't hurt to send greetings to his sister in the family group so that other relatives could also know about this happy event.
In addition to the Yan family's own group chat, there is also a group chat where everyone is a loving family, including members from the Yan, Li, and Su families.
Because we hadn't had time to tell the other relatives about Yan Xiluo's return home, we didn't include her in the conversation.
(Yan Yinran is also not in the group because she is afraid of being greeted by a group of elders in the group, so she took the initiative to say that she would not join and that her parents would notify her if anything happened.)
The group chat has exploded at this moment!
Li Shangjue tagged Li Shuwen and Yan Youting.
"Sister and brother-in-law, I heard from Feifei that Luoluo has returned home. Congratulations on finding your biological daughter!"
He felt very sorry for his niece who had been away from home for more than ten years, but luckily she finally came home!
Li Shuyan: "What are you talking about, brother?"
Li Shuyan was surprised and didn't know why Li Shangjue said that.
Li Mufei: "Auntie, my eldest aunt recently found her biological daughter."
Yan Chuxiao tagged Yan Youting and Li Shuwen.
"Big brother and sister-in-law, is what Feifei said true?"
Yan Chuxiao was even more shocked.
Yan Mingxuan tagged Li Shuyan: "Auntie, it's true, my little sister is home."
Li Mufei: "I was surprised too. She is my best friend. I never realized that she looks like my aunt. I just thought that their personalities and clothing styles were different, so I didn't make the connection."
Li Mufei blamed herself for being too stupid; otherwise, Yan Xiluo would have returned to the Yan family long ago.
Su Ruien tagged Yan Chuxiao.
"Mom, it's true. Luo Luo is staying with Grandpa. I ran into her today when I went there and gave her a ride. Afterwards, Grandpa and Grandma told me about Luo Luo. Luo Luo really looks like my aunt!"
Yan Yixing: "My little sister is so cute and pretty!" Yan Yixing smiled proudly in front of the screen.
Si Yaqin: "Such a big thing, and your parents didn't even tell us? You've been keeping it a secret?"
Si Yaqin was worried. Her own granddaughter had been living away from home for more than ten years, and she didn't know if she was doing well.
Li Yaosen: "So you're saying Ranran isn't Shuwen's biological daughter? Luoluo, whom you're talking about, is?"
Li Yaosen found it hard to accept that the granddaughter he had doted on for over a decade was not his biological granddaughter, while his biological granddaughter was living outside and had suffered countless hardships!
Yan Yuze: "Yes, Grandpa."
At this moment, Li Mufei posted a photo of herself with Yan Xiluo.
Everyone who had never met Yan Xiluo was stunned! They really did look alike…
Su Mengying: "My cousin is so beautiful!"
Su Mengying is definitely a sucker for good looks, she couldn't help but sigh.
Si Yaqin: "It's just like it! It's so similar!"
No wonder she's her daughter's biological child; you can tell whose child it is just by looking at them.
Xia Yun: "Yaqin, she really does look a lot like Shuwen. Congratulations on finding your granddaughter!"
Xia Yun offered her heartfelt blessings, as the three families of elders had a very good relationship.
Su Weihua: "Congratulations!"
Su Weihua was also pleased about this.
Lai Yiu-sum: "What's my precious granddaughter's name?"
After talking for so long, I still don't know my precious granddaughter's name!
Zhang Yiting: "I heard from Feifei that her name used to be Lin Xiluo, but now she has changed her surname back to Yan and is called Yan Xiluo."
As her aunt, Zhang Yiting was very happy that her niece could come home. Everyone knows that she is famously protective of her own children and dotes on them.
Su Ruien: "The Divine Physician Yin Xin".
Su Ruien accidentally revealed her inner thoughts, forgetting that no one else knew.
Zhang Yiting and Su Ruien released their messages at the same time.
Yan Chuxiao: "Ryan, what nonsense are you talking about? Grandpa Li is asking for my sister's name, why are you bringing up the divine doctor Yin Xin?"
Yan Chuxiao thought his son was seeking medical help for his father's demonic possession.
Su Ruien: "I typed it out as soon as I thought about it, but it's true, my cousin is the miracle doctor Yin Xin!"
Everyone in the group except Su Ruien was in an uproar! They were shocked by Yan Xiluo's identity!
Everyone: "The Divine Physician Yin Xin?!"
Su Ruien: "My grandparents and I only found out today. We gave Luoluo the consultation fee and asked her to give it to her friend. In order not to accept the consultation fee, she told the truth that she knew medicine and that she had prepared the medicine herself. Later, I thought that such high medical skills could only be possessed by a divine doctor hiding his heart. So, I asked Luoluo, and she admitted it!"
Li Mufei: "!!! Why didn't I know? I only knew she was researching drugs when she went to the lab, I didn't know she had this other identity!"
Okay, Luo Luo, I'll interrogate you properly later. You've been hiding it so well that even I didn't know anything about you.
Li Shuyan: "My precious niece is so amazing?!"
She single-handedly saved her own grandfather?!
Li Yaosen: "Then there's hope for Lao Yan's illness!"
Lai Yiu-sum felt both heartache and joy.
Su Ruien: "Luo Luo retrieved the living tongcao, and the medicine for the cure has been delivered."
Although everyone knows that live tongcao (a type of herb) is rare and hard to find, they are unaware of the dangers involved in harvesting it.
Li Shaochuan rarely spoke and had an icy personality. He silently watched the previous news until the mention of retrieving live tongcao (a type of herb), at which point his worry reached his throat.
What?! She went to get it all by herself? Ghost Island is such a dangerous place; a slight misstep could lead to being poisoned by the herbs or eaten by wild beasts!
Even he and Lan Jingyan couldn't get in and out safely and had to bring several more people with them, so there must be someone with her. It seems that her cousin must have some powerful identity.
This matter cannot be known to other family members for the time being, otherwise they will worry to death. I will go and check on them when I have time.
