Zhou Yunxi did not even turn her head. However, her expression was unusually tense.
Huang Meixiang watched her departing figure with a puzzled look in her eyes. Zhou Yunxi's words were very convincing. Could it be that she was telling the truth?
However, how could she have come to the Ning family's villa for nothing? She decided to find Gu Yanwei and tell her everything she knew.
Gu Yanwei did not seem to know the so-called truth either. She thought that Madam Ning had accepted her as her goddaughter out of luck.
"What did you say? Gu Ruochu is the daughter of the Ning family?" Gu Yanwei found it laughable. She was the adopted daughter from an unknown background, yet Huang Meixiang claimed that Gu Ruochu was the Ning family's daughter?
Huang Meixiang was afraid that Gu Yanwei would not believe her and quickly said, "Think about it. You're just an adopted daughter. Why does Zhou Yunxi love you so much but not Ruochu? Why does Madam Ning have to acknowledge you as the goddaughter of a minor celebrity?"
"You're spouting nonsense! Madam Ning has never said that I'm her daughter! She only acknowledged me as her goddaughter because she likes me…"
Gu Yanwei's breathing suddenly quickened, and she was stunned.
Huang Meixiang's theory and everything that had happened seemed to be linked together by a series of keys, and there was no single flaw. No wonder Madam Ning had treated her so well. It turned out that she had mistaken her as her daughter.
Gu Yanwei cried painfully at the thought of this.
'I can't accept this!
'I've always been one level above Gu Ruochu since I was young. Why do I always have to lose to her? Gu Ruochu stole my man. I'm going to steal Gu Ruochu's identity and parents!'
"Second Aunt, your purpose for coming here today wasn't just to tell me the so-called truth, was it?"
"Yanwei is still the smart one." Huang Meixiang smiled. "I'm the only one who knows this secret. As long as my good niece is obedient, I will never tell anyone."
That was her goal. She did not care who was whose daughter!
"Tell me, what do you want?"
"I don't want your money. You've caused Lili to be in such a miserable state, and she now sits at home crying. She has thought of cutting her wrists and committing suicide several times. You caused her all this pain!"
"So…"
Huang Meixiang stood up from her chair and reached out to play with her blood-red, vulgar nails. She then slowly said, "As long as you resolve my daughter's situation and help her marry into the Huo family, I'll keep this secret forever."
"You still haven't given up on Huo Nanchen?"
"No, I want you to hook him up with Huo Zirui." Huang Meixiang looked at her and curled her lips. "I heard that you've always had a good relationship with him, so you'll find a way, right?"
"All right. I promise you."
"…"
Gu Ruochu was shocked to find out that Gu Li was pregnant after only half a month. She was pregnant with Huo Zirui's child!
When Gu Li knelt in front of Mrs. Huo, her entire face was dark. Her impression of Gu Yanwei and Gu Li had reached a new low.
"Huo Zirui!" Mrs. Huo gritted her teeth and glared at her son. "This child, is it yours?"
"Yes."
Huo Zirui's expression was a little indifferent. This attitude made Mrs. Huo even angrier. Gu Ruochu stood beside Huo Nanchen and unwittingly caught sight of Gu Li's smug gaze.
"You!" Mrs. Huo was so angry that she slapped her son on the back. "What kind of woman are you looking for? Why did you have to go after Gu Li? Don't you know how she hurt your brother and sister-in-law? What? Do you want me to admit that I'm family with this woman now?"
