Chapter 38: The Truth

  "If Xiaoyue were my biological daughter, I might not have done this. But because she is not my biological daughter, she is that person's daughter, so I must be strict with her and take responsibility for everything about her!"

  The words were like a thunderclap exploding in Yin Xiaoyue's ears...

  She covered her mouth in surprise.

  Jian Ruolin turned on the night light, and under the dim yellow glow, her face looked a bit haggard, with a hint of redness around her eyes.

  Perhaps even Lan Qianye had never seen her so devoid of radiance before.

  Yin Xiaoyue listened as she spoke...

  Lan Si Tong was originally named Liang Si Tong. She is the daughter of the former housekeeper of the Presidential House and has never seen her mother since birth.

  When she was young, her father Liang Zhen died in front of Liang Si Tong to protect the President.

  The president acknowledged her as his daughter in order to repay the debt of gratitude for saving her father's life.

  But there is one thing that even the President doesn't know.

  In the quiet study, Jian Ruolin gazed at the lovely Liang Sihong, her eyes filled with affection. "Sihong, from now on you are my daughter."

  Little Liang Sihong hugged her doll and shook her head, "No, I don't want to be your daughter at all. I only want to be the wife of Qian Zhen young master!"

  Jian Ruolin would never forget the strange smile that lingered on Liang Sicheng's lips at that time.

  That's definitely not a smile a kid of just a few years old should have.

  Her father died right in front of her, and before he died, he grasped at the hem of her skirt with a stubborn gaze, the white skirt stained with a patch of blood.

  But she didn't feel sad or cry, now looking at Jian Ruolin's eyes only had a sense of triumph.

  She finally had the ability to discuss terms with the President's wife.

  This girl...?

  It's as if I don't have a heart.

  Jian Ruolin suddenly felt a little scared. This Liang Siting usually looked so obedient, but why did she feel completely different from usual at this moment?

  She didn't tell anyone about this and still had a glimmer of hope in her heart.

  She believes that as long as she works hard, one day she will be able to straighten out her twisted heart...

  So she was always cruel and cold to Liang Sicheng, hoping that her strict discipline could awaken the kindness in her heart.

  But she didn't expect Liang Sicheng's increasingly severe behavior.

  "When he was alive, Liang Zhen loved his daughter so much and must have hoped that she would become an outstanding person. I hope to fulfill his unfulfilled wish for him..." Jian Ruolin's voice sounded so sorrowful.

  "Aunt..." Yoon-ah couldn't help but silently hug her.

  Jian Ruolin's painstaking efforts may never be understood by Lan Sitong, but this heart is so sincere and touching.

  …………?

  At breakfast time, Lan Qian Zhen, Lan Qian Ye and Lan Si Tong were not there, maybe they are all in Lan Si Tong's room coaxing her to eat!

  The once lively and extraordinary dining table is now eerily quiet.

  Jian Ruolin looked around at the empty seats and silently sighed.

  "Auntie, it's okay, everything will be alright!" Yin Xiaoyue's radiant smile, like sunshine, had an inexplicable power that was comforting to the heart.

  But she didn't expect another wave to rise after one had subsided...

  Yin Xiaoyue had just walked into the classroom with her backpack when an unidentified object flew towards her head at high speed.

  She was smashed until she saw stars, and it wasn't easy to steady herself against the wall.

  A surge of anger rose up to the sky, just about to say something.

  Then a sharp and piercing sound rang out - ?

  "Murderer, get out of our class!"
