Who says real and fake daughters can’t be sisters?

In the gorgeous European-style villa, Mrs. Lin was pruning flower branches at the table. The servant walked up and said, "Madam, there is someone outside who wants to see you. He said he is from the Ji family."

"Ji family? Which Ji family?" Mrs. Lin asked without stopping pruning the branches.

"The richest family in Pingzhou, the Ji family, should be the eldest daughter of Chairman Ji, who came here to talk about some matters between children."

"It's something between children? How can there be children from our family and their family..." Mrs. Lin's smiling expression froze, and she continued, "What did Lin Nuannuan do? Isn't she good friends with the youngest daughter of the Ji family?"

For this reason, Mr. Lin asked her several times, both explicitly and implicitly, to be nicer to the illegitimate daughter.

"I heard that something happened to the Ji family's youngest daughter at school yesterday. I can't find out the details, but the Ji family was really angry. Several children were taken away. I don't know if it is related to this incident."

Hearing this, Mrs. Lin did not ask any more questions and said directly: "Please invite Miss Ji to the living room first. I will change my clothes and come over."

The servant invited the person in, and not long after, Mrs. Lin also arrived in the living room: "I didn't know that there was a distinguished guest visiting today. Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."

"Mrs. Lin, you are too polite. After all, I came here suddenly and disturbed Mrs. Lin."

Both of them had standard fake smiles on their faces and greeted each other politely yet distantly. After a few rounds of conversation, they finally got to the point.

"I wonder why Miss Ji is visiting today?"

Ji Anxin picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. She looked calm and said, "It's not a big deal, but I thought I should inform the Lin family. Do you think an illegitimate daughter is more important, or the Lin family's peaceful life is more important?"

Mrs. Lin's hand froze as she was about to pick up the teacup. She could no longer maintain the proper smile on her face. She looked at Ji Anxin and said, "Can I understand Miss Ji's words as a threat?"

"Oh, I'm so sorry. Mrs. Lin actually heard it?" Ji Anxin was too lazy to continue smiling fakely. She put away her expression and put on her keep-away-from-everyone look in the company.

"Even if I threatened you, what can you do to me? Mrs. Lin wouldn't turn against me just for a mistress's child, would she? I heard that Lin Nuannuan's biological mother was not a peaceful person back then."

"What did Lin Nuannuan do to make Miss Ji so angry? If you want her to be punished, you should at least give me a reasonable reason. After all, her last name is Lin."

When Mrs. Lin heard that Ji Anxin's words were directed at Lin Nuannuan, she calmed down. Why should the Lin family bear the responsibility for the trouble caused by Lin Nuannuan? She had long wanted to deal with that illegitimate daughter. If she hadn't taken her husband's attitude into consideration, she wouldn't have kept her well fed and well-dressed.

Of course there is no problem in dealing with Lin Nuannuan, but you have to give her a suitable reason, right?

"It's no secret in this circle that our Si Ran was adopted, but it's limited to our circle. But Lin Nuannuan told people at school that Ran Ran is not our biological child, saying that she took over the magpie's nest. And she happened to say it to people who don't get along with my sister? This is really a coincidence, don't you think so, Mrs. Lin?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Lin recalled some past events and cursed in her heart that she was as despicable as her vixen mother. Back then, Lin Nuannuan's mother behaved in the same way and caused her a lot of suffering. Now Lin Nuannuan is in the same situation as her mother.

Of course, Mrs. Lin wanted to use this as an excuse to drive Lin Nuannuan out of the Lin family more than anyone else. But if she just tried to sow discord, Lin Nuannuan and her father would just cry and the matter would probably end in nothing. For so many years, it was said that Lin Hong had ignored this illegitimate daughter, but the premise was that she had never deliberately made things difficult for her, so everyone had maintained superficial peace for so long.

Ji Anxin seemed to understand Mrs. Lin's concerns. Seeing that she remained silent, she added, "Ranran is still in the hospital. It is not right for a child of our Ji family to not fight back after being bullied. I believe that Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin will give our Ji family a satisfactory answer. I will take my leave now."

After Ji Anxin finished speaking, she really left, as if she didn't care what choice they would make.

At the other school, Yuanluo decided to go to school because she had nothing to do. After all, the troublemaker Lin Nuannuan had not been punished. Although her sister said she would deal with it, Yuanluo didn't think the Lin family would do anything to Lin Nuannuan.

She just said some ambiguous words. It was impossible for her to be locked up like Jiang Sike and the others. She also didn't think that the Lin family would beat Lin Nuannuan. It would probably just reduce her living conditions. If she didn't feel the pain, it wouldn't be considered a lesson.

Lin Nuannuan saw that Jiang Sike didn't show up today, and several people who played well with Jiang Sike didn't come either. Ji Siran's seat was also empty. Lin Nuannuan felt a little proud. Why should an adopted daughter live better than her? It would be fair for her to suffer a little.

The more Lin Nuannuan thought about it, the more proud she became. She had only said some half-truths, and it was Jiang Sike who did it. No matter what Jiang Sike said, no one could do anything to her.

Lin Nuannuan's pride only lasted for two classes. During the break, Ji Yuanluo suddenly came up to her and asked her to go out, saying that she was Ji Siran's best friend and wanted to ask her some questions about Ji Siran. Then, regardless of whether she agreed or not, she dragged her away.

Then she was dragged by Ji Yuanluo all the way to the equipment room of the playground, and then thrown to the ground by Ji Yuanluo.

Lin Nuannuan was so frightened that she screamed and asked, "What on earth are you going to do?"

Yuanluo picked up the baseball bat from yesterday and moved closer to her with it in her hand, scaring her so much that she sat on the ground and backed away repeatedly.

"Do you know where this is? It was here yesterday that Ranran was beaten by Jiang Sike and his men. Are you very proud of yourself? Do you think you are very smart?"

"I don't understand what you are saying." Lin Nuannuan avoided her gaze and tried her best to deny it.

"It doesn't matter. If you don't understand, I'll beat you until you understand."

"You dare? Our Lin family is not something that anyone can bully. If you dare to touch me, my father will not let it go. Don't come over here."

"You are just the illegitimate daughter of the Lin family. You are not as successful as Siran in the Lin family. Even if I did something to you, what would it matter? Anyway, the Ji family will never let anything happen to me. But what can the Lin family do for you?"

Lin Nuannuan was really scared. She knew that what Ji Yuanluo said was right. No matter what Ji Yuanluo did today, the Ji family would protect her. But she was different. Even if something happened to her, the Lin family might not do anything for her.

Yuanluo still had some sense of propriety. The baseball bat was too hard. If she hit someone with it, it would be a disaster for the Ji family. So she threw the bat on the ground, stepped forward, pressed Lin Nuannuan under her, and slapped her hard several times.

At first she was able to control her strength, but she could always think of the bruises on Si Ran's body that she saw as soon as she closed her eyes last night. She was really angry.

Lin Nuannuan was beaten so hard that she could only protect her head. She was no match for Yuanluo in terms of strength. Yuanluo saw that she couldn't hit her face, so she stood up and kicked her butt several times.

Then Yuanluo picked up the baseball bat and quietly looked at Lin Nuannuan who was curled up on the ground. She was torn between her conscience and her desires. Si Ran's arm was broken by someone, and she wanted Lin Nuannuan to feel the same pain, but her remaining rationality told her that she couldn't do that.

Lin Nuannuan could no longer feel any pain, and thought that Yuanluo had let her go, so she carefully put down her hands and looked around. Then she saw Yuanluo, who had picked up the stick again, staring at her intently.

Lin Nuannuan was so scared that her whole body trembled, and she quickly begged for mercy: "I was wrong, I will never dare to talk nonsense again, I will never dare to do anything bad to Siran again, please let me go, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong."

In the end, reason prevailed. Yuan Luo suppressed her anger and said softly, "From today on, if I hear any news about Siran's background at school, whether you said it or not, I will hold you responsible. You'd better keep your tail between your legs and behave yourself. Do you understand?"

Lin Nuannuan naturally dared not not understand, so she nodded repeatedly.

"roll!"

Hearing this word, Lin Nuannuan felt as if she had been pardoned, and she ran out crawling.
