Chapter 2 Vicious Fake Gold 1
Chapter 2 Vicious Fake Gold 1
"When are we going to eat? My sister is always so slow, I'm starving!"
Ji Qingbao grumbled in dissatisfaction, and immediately received a scolding from his mother, "You naughty boy, you're always running around all day, and you get angry over a meal."
"That's your sister. Wait, what happened to her?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Qingbao thought of something, pouted, and muttered, "You're just biased..."
Even though he was the boy, Ji's mother always favored Ji Qingyu, which made the latter unhappy for a long time.
Perhaps because the voice was loud, or perhaps because the room was too quiet, everyone heard the complaint.
The expressions on everyone's faces changed in an instant.
Few of the people who grew up in the Ji family were fools. Even the two illegitimate daughters had received some information and occasionally revealed a gloating look in their eyes.
Finally, it was Ji's father who said, "It's been so long, why hasn't Qingyu arrived yet? Go and see if something has happened."
Despite hearing words of concern, Ji's mother's expression changed slightly.
Father Ji used to never say or ask questions, but now that he's heard the news, his attitude has changed...
Ji's mother was somewhat worried.
On the contrary, Ji Qingying beside him remained indifferent.
Just as the servants were about to go and check, the next second, everyone heard a series of light footsteps.
Ji's mother's eyes lit up, and the others also subconsciously looked towards the door.
A girl in pink, dressed in light and elegant clothes, walked slowly towards them.
Her face was exquisitely beautiful, her eyes filled with tenderness like autumn water, and her dark hair swayed gently with her steps. Every step perfectly showcased her graceful figure, like a willow branch swaying in the wind, both delicate and resilient.
Every move they make captivates the heart.
As she slowly approached, everyone was captivated by her alluring aura.
Qingyu walked into the room with a smile, and with her movements, a faint fragrance filled the air, indescribably captivating.
She parted her red lips slightly and bowed gently, "Father, Mother, have you been waiting long?"
As she spoke, Qingyu, behaving like the spoiled owner of the original body, didn't wait for anyone to speak before getting up and quickly going to Ji's mother's side. She sat down affectionately and said softly and sweetly, "Mother, Qingyu missed you so much. I missed you so much even though it's only been a short while~"
Just as Ji's mother was recovering from thinking about how beautiful and pretty her daughter was, she heard this and her heart felt like it was soaking in honey. She smiled and patted Qingyu's head.
"You're so big now, why are you still acting like a child with your mother? Aren't you hungry? Why don't you eat first?"
The others were also reminded by this sentence. Ji's father, who had initially wanted to blame his daughter, suddenly felt inexplicably soft-hearted and guilty when he saw his daughter's beautiful appearance.
He was truly bewitched. He cherished his beautiful daughter so much, so what if she wasn't his biological daughter? Couldn't the Ji family afford to raise two daughters?
Thinking this, Father Ji's expression softened, and he nodded, "Don't let Qingyu go hungry, let's start eating."
The others nodded in agreement, their eyes occasionally glancing at Qingyu. The hall fell silent again, with only the sounds of everyone eating filling the air.
Qingyu looked up and saw that no one was speaking, which made her chuckle inwardly. "...System? This plot isn't right, is it? Didn't you say they would talk about the fake heiress?"
As she asked the question, Qingyu calmly ate her meal. Then, noticing the gaze of the person beside her, she looked up and met a pair of deep, dark eyes…
There seems to be a hint of... amazement and liking?
Qingyu almost thought she was seeing things. You see, the person next to her was Ji Qingying, the older brother who had never gotten along with the original owner since childhood. The latter had always been an outstanding young man in the capital, and at a young age, he had already achieved great talent and passed the imperial examinations.
In Qingyu's words, he was a model young man.
So—what kind of look is this guy giving me?
Is he possessed?
In the original storyline, the real heiress arrives, and this guy is a complete siscon. Towards the original owner of this body, he is cold and ruthless.
Thinking of this, Qingyu turned her head away in dissatisfaction, not noticing that Ji Qingying stiffened for a moment before quickly recovering.
Do you hate him that much?
"...Wait a minute, I'll see how it goes and give you some help." The system had anticipated this situation, after all, its host was a notorious "troublemaker."
Her captivating charm was something the system simply couldn't fathom.
The system was starting to get a headache thinking about how to gain more malice points. It made up its mind that if that didn't work, it would have to plead with the gods again...
At worst, it can just whine and beg for help from the 250 system!
Everyone at the table was eating quietly, but Qingyu found it rather tasteless. As the meal was almost finished and no one was speaking, a bold idea suddenly came to her mind.
She slammed her chopsticks down abruptly, her movements anything but elegant. As everyone looked over, she haughtily curled her lip and looked at Mother Ji, "Mother... I heard something today. They all say that I am not Father and Mother's biological daughter, and that you have already found your biological daughter, is that right?"
These words struck like a thunderbolt, surprising everyone.
Madam Ji was the first to react, her face extremely unnatural. She wanted to deny it, but when she met Qingyu's beautiful and clear eyes, she suddenly felt a pang of sadness.
Finally, her eyes reddened, and she glared at the others first, "Who's been gossiping? You all blurted out things I didn't even say!"
Then she hurriedly looked at Qingyu and explained, "Qingyu, this matter... was discovered by accident, but don't worry, you will always be your mother's most beloved daughter."
"But what about the other sister?" Ji Qingbao blurted out, but her face turned bright red when she saw Qingyu's beautiful face. She stammered, "I...no...I didn't mean anything!"
What's going on? Why do I like my sister more and more today? I can't bear to make her sad!
Honestly, why did the other one have to come back?
The thought was fleeting. Ji Qingbao looked at Ji Qingying for help, but the latter's jaw was clenched, and she stared intently at Qingyu, ignoring her brother's pleading gaze.
Ji Qingbao: "...Big Brother..."
Ji Qingying ignored him completely, but he did speak, though he tried to keep his voice gentle, and said, "Your status will not change."
Father Ji nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, Qingyu, don't listen to Qingbao's nonsense, you are still a member of the Ji family."
Upon hearing this, Qingyu's eyes instantly reddened. She glanced at everyone with a mournful look, bit her red lips, and her fair face seemed to be flushed with a blush due to her unsteady breathing, making her quite alluring.
Suddenly, she said arrogantly, "I won't allow her to come back! The Ji family can only have me as their daughter! If she returns, I will leave!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Qingyu suddenly stood up from her seat. However, her movement was too big, causing the bowls and chopsticks on the table to break and shatter, leaving a mess on the floor.
Everyone was caught off guard by this sudden turn of events. After recovering, Father Ji was the first to express his displeasure, his face darkening. "Qingyu! You can't be fooling around!"
“I’m not being ridiculous. You are my father and mother. Since she has been living in the countryside for so many years, why did she have to show up again? She must be coming back to take everything away from me!”
