Liu Yuanyuan swallowed her saliva and said nervously, "Aunt Lu, the one who might have switched me with Lu Meichen. She was also the one who sowed discord between Lu Meichen and me, and the Lu family, in my previous life.

She is looking for Lu Meichen now, most likely to take the opportunity to sow discord between Lu Meichen and us again. We can't let her succeed."

After saying that, Liu Yuanyuan hurried to walk out the door, but was stopped by Tang Ziji.

Puzzled, Liu Yuanyuan turned around and looked at him. He looked at her firmly and said, "Don't your parents already know about this? They must be on guard against him. Maybe Lu Meichen already knows the truth about this matter. So you should trust them."

"But in their previous life, they didn't..." Liu Yuanyuan wanted to say something, but Tang Ziji stopped her by shaking his head.

"You have to trust your biological parents. Perhaps in your previous life, you met briefly and acknowledged each other's existence before you even knew each other. But there wasn't much trust left."

But this life is different. You begin to accept each other after getting to know each other deeply. Therefore, the level of trust between you is much higher. At least that's how your biological parents are.

Furthermore, there are so many suspicious points in your case. You provided them with clues, and it would be unreasonable for them to not be able to investigate it clearly with their abilities."

"But 16 years have passed, and there wasn't much surveillance at the time. It's not easy to get evidence." Liu Yuanyuan was still worried.

After all, my aunt has always been hiding very deeply. If I hadn't been a ghost in my previous life, I probably wouldn't have been able to see the whole picture of her.

"It doesn't matter. As long as she has a target, she will reveal her true colors."

Liu Yuanyuan felt strangely relieved as she looked at Tang Ziji's resolute gaze. Yes, Lu Meichen in this life was different from the Lu Meichen in the previous one. Everything was moving in a positive direction.

So he took a deep breath and nodded to Tang Ziji with a smile: "Well, even if I don't believe my biological parents, I at least believe you."

"Thank you for your trust. If things have calmed down, we can go over now." Tang Ziji smiled and made a gentleman's gesture of invitation.

Liu Yuanyuan smiled back at him and strode out the door with her head held high.

When they reached the next room, Liu Yuanyuan saw Mr. Tang sitting in a chair, smiling silently, drinking tea. Mr. Lu, on the other hand, closed his eyes helplessly, leaning back in his chair, listening to a woman dressed in fancy clothes, with her back to them, talking about a string of Buddhist beads in her hand.

"Dad, you don't know, this Buddhist rosary was blessed by a master, it's very effective. Many people want it but can't. I spent a lot of money to get it for you. And it's made of sandalwood, with a natural fragrance that has a calming effect. Wearing it is good for your health, you must keep it.

I also asked for a citrine bracelet for Meichen to help with her studies. I wanted to give it to her while I could. I don't know what's wrong with her lately. She hasn't been coming to our house to play, and she hasn't been hanging out with her cousins. I haven't had the chance to give it to her yet."

Liu Yuanyuan and Tang Ziji came in quietly, not interrupting the woman. Old Master Tang didn't say anything when he saw them, but just smiled and nodded at them.

Liu Yuanyuan smiled and whispered hello to Mr. Tang: "Hello, Grandpa Tang."

The woman's voice was very high-pitched, but Mr. Lu still recognized Liu Yuanyuan's voice and immediately opened his eyes and looked over.

The woman didn't notice the two of them at all. When she saw Mr. Lu open his eyes, she thought that Mr. Lu was moved and was immediately overjoyed.

Mr. Lu ignored her and waved to Liu Yuanyuan. The woman then realized that Mr. Lu was not looking at her at all, so she turned around and looked over.

Liu Yuanyuan saw Mr. Lu waving at her and was about to walk over when her aunt suddenly turned around and startled her. This aunt seemed a little different from the one she remembered, and looked much younger than the one in her previous life.

She also knew her aunt's background. Before returning to the Lu family, she had lived a very difficult life. Therefore, she looked much older than her peers, and even makeup could not hide the traces of time.

But this life is completely the opposite. Although she is fifty years old, she looks only forty. You can see that she has light makeup on her face, and her skin looks delicate and smooth.

There probably isn't a foundation with such strong concealing power these days. This must be because her skin is so good. If her appearance hadn't changed, she would have suspected this wasn't her aunt.

But what made her frown even more was that she actually vaguely saw a faint black aura on the face of her cheap aunt.

She blinked hard, thinking she was dazzled, but found that the black energy had not dissipated. So she turned to look at Tang Ziji uncertainly. She found that Tang Ziji's brows were also tightly furrowed.

She knew she wasn't seeing things; there really was something wrong with her aunt. She became nervous again.

But before she could say anything, her eldest aunt said in surprise, "Wow, this little girl looks so energetic and cheerful. This boy must be Uncle Tang's grandson. Then this little girl must be my niece."

He was completely at ease. His personality hadn't changed, he was still very familiar.

Liu Yuanyuan collected her thoughts, forced herself to put on a professional smile, turned towards the woman and said, "Hello, aunt."

Mr. Lu said with a smile: "Yuanyuan is here. It seems you recognize her. Yes, this is your aunt. She came to look for Meichen. Unfortunately, Meichen is not here. She is fine, so you don't need to pay attention to her."

Liu Yuanyuan nodded with a professional fake smile. However, she, the eldest aunt, didn't care about the old man's words at all. She took out a string of beads from her small bag, walked up to Liu Yuanyuan with a smile on her face, and took Liu Yuanyuan's hand, trying to put it in her hand.

But when Liu Yuanyuan saw the beads in her hand, her scalp suddenly felt numb and she wanted to shake off her aunt's hand. This was because she saw that the beads were engraved with inscriptions.

But she still took it. Just as her aunt was about to pinch her with her nails, she quickly retracted it. Then, with a look of amazement, she held up the beads in her hand, examining them carefully under the light and said, "Wow, thank you, brother! These beads are so exquisite, with all the carvings on them. They're so antique. I've never seen anything like them before."
