"I don't know her, I have nothing to do with her! Everything I have is from the Lin family, I am the Lin family's daughter!" Lin Feiwei shouted as if in a panic.
But even her shouting was useless. Why Lin Feiwei refused to acknowledge her biological mother and insisted on staying with the Lin family was clear to everyone in the Lin family. It wasn't out of affection. As Ye Wan said, she was just greedy for the Lin family's extravagant lifestyle.
"Ye Wenqing lived a life of luxury to satisfy her selfish desires, but me? From the time I can remember, she treated me poorly, constantly beating and scolding me. If I were you, I'd be too ashamed to stay. Oh, I forgot, you and your mother are both selfish and greedy people! Only caring about your own pleasure and not about others' lives." Ye Wan stripped away Lin Feiwei's hypocrisy with her bare words.
The Lin family's faces were unsightly. The more they thought about it, the more they felt they had wronged Ye Wan. What kind of life had she endured, being beaten and scolded since childhood? And by what right was Lin Feiwei continuing to enjoy wealth and status in the Ye family?
Previously, the Lin family had been reluctant to give up this daughter, but now they increasingly felt that they had wronged their biological daughter, Ye Wan.
"We can't let Ye Wenqing off the hook. She should pay the price for what she did. Do you know where she is? I'll call the police to handle her infant-swapping case," Lin Zehan said with a frown.
"Yes, we can't let Ye Wenqing off easily," Mr. Lin added. He used to think Lin Feiwei was a good daughter, far better than Ye Wan. But now, he wondered if Ye Wan would have legitimately married Gu Yunting if their children hadn't been swapped back then.
Instead, Lin Feiwei had no chance of marrying into the Gu family, and Ye Wan was living with Gu Yunting without any official status. He, Mr. Lin, had gained nothing from it.
Mrs. Lin remained silent, but her feelings were the same. No one hated that woman Ye Wenqing more than she did.
Ye Wan merely looked at Lin Feiwei sarcastically. Lin Feiwei grew anxious, "What are you looking at me for? If you want to arrest someone, arrest them. I have nothing to do with her!"
"As expected... so cold-blooded!" Ye Wan smiled, her gaze at Lin Feiwei filled with even more disdain.
Lin Feiwei was so angry she cried. She suddenly threw the tableware in front of her, got up, glared fiercely at Ye Wan, and turned to leave the dining room.
Ye Wan, in good spirits, continued eating. Because of the Ye Wenqing situation, Mr. Lin no longer brought up the matter of Ye Wan changing her surname.
...
After dinner, Lin Zehan drove Ye Wan home. On the way, Lin Zehan looked at Ye Wan and asked, "Do you really dislike Lin Feiwei?"
"Yes, I dislike her," Ye Wan said, not hiding her aversion to Lin Feiwei.
"I'm sorry." Lin Zehan felt guilty; he still couldn't bring himself to drive Lin Feiwei away.
"It's alright, I understand. I'm already grateful that you don't blame me for meddling," Ye Wan smiled indifferently.
Lin Zehan didn't know what to say for a moment, his hand gripping the steering wheel tightly.
...
Gu Yunting went to Gu's Group in the afternoon. As he got out of the car, preparing to go inside, someone called out to him.
"Mr. Gu, do you have time to talk?" Jun Li Chen stood not far away, a wicked smile playing on his lips as he looked at him.
Gu Yunting merely glanced at him indifferently, then withdrew his gaze. Ignoring Jun Li Chen, he walked inside.
Jun Li Chen hadn't expected Gu Yunting to treat him this way. He suddenly said unhappily, "Gu Yunting, do you really think Ye Wan loves you? Don't you want to know who Ye Wan's first time was with?"
Hearing this, Gu Yunting's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp. He turned and stared at Jun Li Chen coldly, his gaze like that of a leopard.
