Before Zhang Xinhui could finish speaking, the old man who was still lying on the bed started crying hard.

It was a heart-wrenching voice, like he was about to be torn apart.

Zhang Xinhui couldn't understand. "Dad, this isnt good for your sickly body. Do you have to go this far?

"Besides, she's not your biological granddaughter. Yan Yan is!

"You've never seen Yan Yan. She's so cultured, knowledgeable, and good-looking. As expected, she's our biological daughter!"

The moment Zhang Xinhui mentioned Qi Yan, she radiated pride and satisfaction. That was something that the sickly Qi An could never give her.

Three months ago, she had been in a car accident. A large amount of blood was required for the transfusion during surgery, but she had a special blood type and the hospital didn't have enough of the blood on hand. It just so happened that Lu Yan, who wasn't her daughter, came to the hospital regularly to donate blood.

It was also at that time that she realized that Yan Yan was her biological daughter, and the daughter that she thought was her biological daughter was the daughter of the nouveau riche upstart whom everyone despised. Perhaps it was the hospital that had mixed them up when they were young?

Speaking of which, she had been suspicious from the start; she and her husband had no family history of illness, so how could they have such a sickly daughter? Just looking at her made her annoyed.

Thinking about it now, Lu An really was the same as her mother, who had died after giving birth to her.

It was hard to imagine her Yan Yan in that home for seventeen years. Seventeen years!

When she thought of how that nouveau riche upstart had come asking for his daughter, Zhang Xinhui itched to chase after Lu An and give her a good beating. She actually just left like that. That was letting her off too easy!

Suddenly, a bowl and plate were thrown at her. Qi Xiuyuan was furious. "Get lost! Get lost!"

A gloomy Zhang Xinhui barely managed to avoid the cutlery, and she looked at Qi Xiuyuan in disbelief. She had initially still wanted to say something, but she just turned around now and walked off haughtily.

However, she reminded Qi Xiuyuan once more, "Then rest well, Dad. I'll bring Yan Yan to see you another day."

In any case, the little b*tch had already gone back and had already switched household registers. She wouldn't get a share of the old man's assets anymore. Zhang Xinhui would see how well she would live in the future. Ha!

Zhang Xinhui gave a wicked smirk. Standing at the entrance of the small wooden house, she glanced at the pure white thing on the side which looked like a trash can, and gave it a kick.

"Warning! Warning! Evil Woman is beating An Zi! Evil Woman is beating An Zi!"

The squat white robot fell to the ground, its chest glowing with a red light. Zhang Xinhui was so scared that her face turned pale. She turned around to run, but she was worried that Qi Xiuyuan would notice something amiss. She hurriedly helped the robot up and explained herself, before finally running away.

The scheming little robot: "Haha, Evil Woman is so stupid."

…

It was already evening by the time Lu An arrived in South City.

Under the setting sun, a noodle shop signboard on the left side of the street looked very attractive.

There was a picture of spicy beef noodles on it; it looked like it contained a lot of beef.

Of course, who knew if the real thing really had that much beef. More importantly, Lu An was hungry.

Previously, she had bought new household items and gotten some renovation work done for Grandpa. The only thing which remained of the money she had earned in the past three months was 10 yuan.

10 yuan! That… was probably enough for a bowl of noodles.

Lu An's bicycle slid to a stop in front of the noodle shop. She turned around and was about to go in to eat noodles, when she inadvertently saw a little black dog running wildly on the road. There were so many cars around, and it seemed like it was going to get hit!

"Watch out!"

With a worried cry, Lu An rushed out like a sword. She bent down, scooped up the little black dog and flipped nimbly in the air.
