Through the book: The villain’s son’s stand-in

When she woke up again, Shangguan Wanwan was already on the starship heading home.

Outside the window is the vast starry sky and the extremely gorgeous galaxy.

"woke up?"

The cold voice reached her ears, scaring away all her sleepyheads.

Shangguan Wanwan looked for fame and saw a young man in exquisite and noble clothes sitting beside her bed.

She recognized the person coming. This was her second brother Shangguan Yi.

"Are you feeling better? The doctor said you are severely malnourished."

The young man's face was stern, but his words were full of warmth.

Shangguan Wanwan nodded: "I'm not dizzy anymore."

The young man relaxed his tense body, handed over the warm water, and said: "My parents are dealing with the follow-up right now. My brother is seasick and is sleeping now, so I'm here to stay with you."

In a few words, he explained the reasons for everyone's absence, hinting her not to think too wildly.

Shangguan Wanwan responded again, holding the water glass with both hands and taking a sip of water.

She wanted to put the cup down, but as soon as she reached out, Shangguan Yi took the cup.

The cup was placed on the table, making a dull sound.

Shangguan Wanwan could feel his infinite kindness and the tolerance shown to her by this group of strange family members.

She was just asked to accept them all at once and adapt seamlessly to this kind of life that was completely opposite to the previous 13 years. She was a little flattered and worried about gains and losses.

"Yes, I understand." She responded awkwardly. After a pause, she lowered her head and whispered: "Actually, you can do what you like without accompanying me."

She was used to living alone.

But when the cold and handsome young man in front of him heard this sentence, he held her hand and said seriously in her surprised eyes: "You are my sister and my family. What I want most now is All I do is stay with you."

"Sister, you are the most important right now."

As soon as these words came out, Shangguan Wanwan's heart seemed to be soaked in warm water, and the high wall made of ice melted in these small hands.

"Ah."

A faint smile appeared on Shangguan Wanwan's lips, and her body suddenly relaxed.

Shangguan Yi noticed the relaxation of her body, stood up, put her hands into the quilt, and said with a smile: "Sister, do you want to know the cause and effect of this matter?"

Shangguan Wanwan thought for a while and nodded.

Seeing this, Shangguan Yi told her everything she didn't know.

"Before that, let me introduce you to our Shangguan family."

"Our family is one of the three top ten families in the capital city of the empire, and is also a hereditary noble of the empire."

"Ten thousand years ago, our ancestors went on an expedition with the imperial royal family, and it took thirteen generations to establish the Starry Empire in this star field."

"Until now, our family has been passed down for 51 generations, and our father is the head of the Shangguan family."

"My father is now a cabinet member of the House of Representatives, and my mother is the director of the Women's Federation. Now that you are back, my mother's position must be yours."

Shangguan Wanwan didn't have much idea about positions, but these professions, which sounded very glamorous at first glance, were something she had never dared to imagine before.

She listened quietly without saying a word.

Shangguan Yi: "Thirteen years ago, my mother gave birth to you. That woman was a maid in the manor. Before that, she was on leave because of her pregnancy."

"I thought it was just a simple pregnancy leave, but in order to let her son enjoy the glory and wealth, she was driven by the Yang family, who is hostile to us, to replace you."

"Because she wasn't sure whether she could get away with it, that woman took you to Blue Star, using you as her final bargaining chip."

"But in a travel accident, our whole family was injured. After a doctor's examination, we found out that he was not our child, and that's how we started this search."

At this point, he paused deliberately and asked, "Do you know how you found out?"

Shangguan Wanwan shook her head, and Shangguan Yi's smile was filled with both joy and bitterness.

"Both men and women in our family have carried a rare special gene for generations. To be more specific, it is a genetic disease."

"Our children will be particularly smart in their early years, but our development will have abnormalities to varying degrees."

He held up his arm covered by his white shirt and said, "I am ten years old, but I only weigh 45 pounds."

"There is no flesh at all on my arms, but after examination, I found that all my physical data were normal."

"Although my younger brother is stronger than me, his hormone secretion is abnormal and he is very irritable."

He sat down again, leaned forward and said:

"And that guy has nothing wrong with him at all!"

"My parents had their doubts, but they all thought that after so many generations of hard work, our family had finally broken the curse, so that person always received preferential treatment."

"But when the doctor checked, he didn't have those special genes. In the end, he was not from our family at all."

"A bastard almost inherited a thousand-year-old family. Sister, tell me, is this joke funny?"

Although he had only been in contact with his two younger brothers for less than a day, Shangguan Wanwan clearly felt that both he and his younger brother were full of resentment towards their father.

After a brief emotional release, Shangguan Yi returned to his cold demeanor.

"Sister, do you have anything else to ask me?" His expression was focused, as if he was waiting for something.

Shangguan Wanwan thought for two seconds, stretched out her hand and said, "Can you lend me your optical brain? I want to say goodbye to someone."

Shangguan Yi's expression was stunned, as if he had not expected this result.

"Here you go." He operated the optical brain bracelet a few times and then said, "There is no password now. Sister, you can read the information inside as you like."

Shangguan Wanwan had no interest in prying into other people's privacy. She shook her head and said, "I just want to say goodbye."

"Well, I'll leave first." Shangguan Yi turned and left.

Before reaching the door, Shangguan Wanwan said: "I'll return it to you after I'm done."

"No need to pay it back." The door closed, and she was alone in the room.

Shangguan Wanwan was stunned for a while.

Every family member seems to have a secret, and their personalities don't seem to be as easy to get along with as they appear on the surface.

She closed her eyes, lowered her head and opened her brain, quickly entering an ID number. There was only one sentence in the verification message: I am Xin Zi.

Ever since she came into contact with her parents, the name Xinzi seemed to have disappeared, easily disappearing from her life.

When her parents and brothers call her, they will only call her by this name.

The name Xinzi is the representative symbol of that period of sin, and they are all trying their best to help her forget the past.

And she was happy to cooperate.

"Drip!"

The optical computer uploaded a message that the verification had passed. Before he could say a word, a transfer message popped up.

[Gu Pan transfers yuan to you. 】

Then her worried words appeared on the light screen: "How are you doing now? Are you safe?"

Gu Pan didn't ask her where she was, nor did he say nonsense like whether she needed money, which made Shangguan Wanwan feel extremely heart-warming.

"I'm safe now."

She did not talk about the abduction, nor did she tell her biological parents about the incident.

Because she is not sure whether the affection she has now is just bubbles in the water.

"It's good to be safe. If your account can always be used, I will give you 10,000 star coins every month. Live a good life, Xin Zi."

This was the first time someone called her Xin Zi after they recognized her.

She thought she would feel physical discomfort, but when Gu Pan called her that, she didn't feel any disgust in her heart, but felt more cordial.

She didn't reject Gu Pan's kindness, and ended the conversation with just a "hmm" in reply.

Shangguan Wanwan looked at the starry sky outside the window, and she thought: Maybe I was born into the Shangguan family.

Beneath that gentle and kind exterior, there is a despicable and selfish heart.
