Xu Nuan is now 21 years old and in the past 6 years, she has experienced her parent's partial behavior towards her and Gu Xingren.

Even after coming into the family, she never got to experience a familial love.

Jiang Yue felt bad for Xu Nuan when she looked through her memories. In her past life, she has left her house when she was 18 years old. Her parents died early, and she doesn't want to fight for the power and inheritance in the Jiang family.

Leaving her house, she started her journey as a trainee in QY Entertainment and soon became part of the girl group and emerged as the most popular member of the group.

Her journey was not an easy one, but she was proud of herself for not giving up and proving her worth to the world. Even though she belongs to the wealthy powerful business family, she grew to popularity without her family's support. It was solely her hard work and talent that she reached that position in the industry.

She proved to the world that one doesn't need a family background or financial status to achieve that status. You can grow to fame as long as you're talented and have the will to never give up, your hard work will show results someday.

That's why she could feel Xu Nuan's disheartening treatment that she had seen in the Gu family. Even after being the legitimate daughter, she became the adopted one.

Not only that, but she also witnessed her parents showering Gu Xingren with love while they just acted uncomfortably around her and treated her like an outsider.

" What a depressing life she has." Jiang Yue murmured as she felt bad for Xu Nuan and more than that for herself.

It took her years of hard work to reach that point in her career but now she is back to zero.

Wait. Not zero. It's practically minus.

' Sigh'

" Bang" she was startled when the door of the hospital room suddenly opened and a slender figure entered the room.

The girl was wearing a pastel pink colored sleeveless dress and her black silky hair was falling loose on her shoulder.

Even though the girl looked beautiful and had that innocent vibe on her face, however, Jiang Yue frowned seeing the girl.

It was Gu Xingren, the fake princess of the Gu family.

However, other than being the fake princess, she has another title, that called being a white lotus.

Note: In novels, white lotus is a term used for innocent-looking bit*hes.

Jiang Yue pursed her lips and stared at Gu Xingren with indifference. She was still laying on the bed and ignored her existence in the room.

On the other hand, Gu Xingren frowned seeing no reaction on Xu Nuan's face. Generally, she acts timidly around her but now she is staring into her eyes.

She cleared her throat and walked to her, " I heard from the doctor that you don't remember anything, is that right?"

Jiang Yue frowned and remembered that it was after coming to her room that she got Xu Nuan's memories.

She pursed her lips and didn't say anything.

Gu Xingren smirked and asked," You're acting right? To gain everyone's sympathy? Xu Nuan, how many times should I tell you that, you are nothing."

" In the Gu family, I am the princess, while you're just an insignificant member. Your parents didn't even come to visit you in these past days. Now you can see how much they value you." She mocked as she observed Xu Nuan's indifferent expressions.

Upon hearing some voices coming from the outside, she straightened up and threw the water jug on the floor causing all the water to spatter on the marble floor.

Jiang Yue aka Xu Nuan stared at Gu Xingren with interest. This bit*h has some interesting drama to show.

The hospital door pushed open in a frenzy and Xu Nuan's real parents, Lin Ran and Gu Zhang entered the room hurriedly hearing the noise.

They saw their 'daughter' Gu Xingren whose dress was slightly wet and water was all over the floor with the broken glass pieces.

Lin Ran shouted in worry, " Xingren, what happened? Are you hurt anywhere? How did this happen?" She asked while carefully holding onto Gu Xingren's hand and pulling her towards her.

"-_-"

Xu Nuan raised her brows as she saw the melodrama in front of her. Her daughter was lying on the bed weakly but she didn't even glance at her, worrying about her is out of the question.

" Mother, I am fine. I was just trying to ask Xu Nuan about her health. But it seems like she doesn't like that I came to visit her. I think I should go back. You can chat with her, after all, you're her real parents. " She said in a low voice while wiping her non-existent tears.

Lin Ran frowned when she heard her daughter's words. She glanced at Xu Nuan with discontent and said, " Xu Nuan, how many times I have told you that even though you're our daughter, Xingren is our daughter as well. "

" Can't you just get along with her? She is such a pitiful girl. Can't you just try to accept fate and move on? We are the one who decided to not announce your identity to the world, do you have to be so cruel to your sister?" Lin Ran felt bad seeing the tears in Xingren's eyes.

Gu Zhang stood on the side and did not say anything.

Xu Nuan glanced at him and then turned to Lin Ran.

" It's Gu Nuan."

" Eh?"

Lin Ran was surprised when she heard Xu Nuan's response. What did she mean by this?

Xu Nuan took a deep breath and said, " It's Gu Nuan, not Xu Nuan. Believe it or not...I am the legitimate daughter of the Gu family, so technically it's Gu Nuan."

" Also, even though you insist on calling me an adopted daughter, it's still Gu Nuan because, after the adoption, I will be called Gu, not Xu." The children in the orphanage use the surname Xu in front of their name because it is the surname of the head of the orphanage.

"-_-"

"-_-"

Her words made everyone stunned, especially Lin Ran. She has always seen Xu Nuan as a quiet girl who never questions anything and just does what she is told.

However, when she is alone with Xingren, she always acts like a dandy and bullies her. That's why she always felt that Xu Nuan had become evil and rude while living in the orphanage.

But it was her first time that she was talking like this in front of her. She always called her as Xu Nuan and never bothered about calling her Gu Nuan, because she never believed that this girl is Gu.

Xu Nuan was weak in studies since she was young and didn't even get to attend college because of her poor results. Even after coming to the Gu family, her grades didn't improve and she failed to get into a better college.

So this also became the reason for her dislike towards Xu Nuan. On the other side, Gu Xingren is not only beautiful, but she also is intelligent and an elegant lady just like her. Everyone praises Xingren for her intelligence but she felt ashamed introducing Xu Nuan as her daughter.
