Forced marriage by a substitute bride? The spoiled son of a prominent Beijing socialite! His whole f

"If I had known why, I wouldn't be so disappointed today."

He Yunyi never expected that his younger brother, who had witnessed the scene, would still ask such unreasonable and mindless questions.

Could it be that his older brother's story was fabricated?

Moreover, Shu Peilan herself has already told the truth of the matter.

"Yiyi, your older brother has treated you very well."

"But brother, do you believe He Yan's words but not Yi Yi's? Since they are both sisters, why are you showing such favoritism? I don't believe Yi Yi would do this; there must be a misunderstanding!"

He Wenming frowned, feeling that this situation was being targeted.

The source of all this trouble is this annoying younger sister.

"Wenming, if you're not thinking straight and keep spouting nonsense, get out of here."

He Zhengyuan glanced at Master Bo's expression and reprimanded him with even greater dissatisfaction.

Although Xiaoyan got divorced, he believed there must be some hidden story behind it.

Given Bo Siheng's protectiveness towards He Yan, he wouldn't care whether the other party was He Yan's biological brother or not; he would still pursue the matter.

"Dad, there are suspicious points in this matter to begin with. Can't I even make a reasonable guess?!"

He Wenming was even more dissatisfied.

Why is it okay for them to speak up for He Yan?

Can't I just say a fair word for Yiyi?

"Wenming, shut up!"

Su Wan got angry too.

They promised not to speculate about He Yan based on things they didn't know, and besides, what happened today didn't seem to be her responsibility at all.

Although the couple is currently angry with their eldest son.

But this is not a matter for one person; it affects the entire He family.

"Yiyi, don't let those who believe in you down."

"no……"

He Yiyi was really anxious this time, because no matter how much she pretended to be wronged and innocent, it was as if everyone had gone deaf, unable to hear or see, and instead was waiting for He Yan to make a statement.

She stared at He Yan, her thoughts racing.

That's impossible; it couldn't be that He Yan discovered some clues.

Her biological father's affair was so well-hidden that no one had discovered it in the past twenty years.

Now that He Yan has appeared, does that mean they know?

Does being a descendant of a legendary healer give you the right to be arrogant?

"Mr. Bo, do you also see them making such malicious speculations about me?"

“Miss He, I naturally trust your character, which is why I agreed to let you treat my illness. But it seems a bit unreasonable for you to ask me for this, since I wasn’t involved.”

Bo Siheng curled his lips, seemingly to comfort him, but his expression was full of aloofness.

He now sees He Yiyi as two extremes.

"Moreover, I'm also afraid that if things escalate to the point where I can't escape unscathed either."

He Yiyi's pupils dilated.

She even felt that Mr. Bo was saying those words to her on purpose.

Because that was her original idea.

If she could get Bo Ye involved and make things so complicated that no one could trace the source of the problem, she could escape. But now she was blocked by a single sentence.

“He Yiyi, we all gave you a chance to explain yourself.”

He Yan wasn't in a hurry at all.

Seeing He Yiyi's anxiety only made her feel better.

"I think some people just can't argue their way out of it; after all, nobody's a fool."

Lin An'an was overjoyed to see this situation unfold.

Thinking about how much her best friend had been openly and secretly bullied by this scheming, hypocritical woman in the He family, she felt that this was still not enough.

And her heartless aunt, has she lost her mind?

Listen to the instigation of an adopted daughter.

Jiang Lu couldn't listen anymore. He didn't think He Yiyi was innocent, but he shouldn't keep humiliating her.

But Lin An'an looked as if she wasn't satisfied with just watching the joke.

He discovered that this woman was truly a bizarre species.

Well... she's quite attractive, especially since he's used to seeing those obedient girls.

"Shut up, you idiot!"

Jiang Lu himself didn't realize that he was actually quite happy.

When she's not crazy, she's quite pretty.

Lin An'an rolled her eyes at him, feeling goosebumps all over after hearing his words.

"Get lost! Don't mess with me."

The two's quiet interaction did not disturb anyone else.

He Yan calmly watched He Yiyi, observing her panic and helplessness as she was driven to a dead end.

Thinking back to how she schemed against me, I feel like I've finally gotten my revenge.

She would never repay evil with kindness, otherwise she would be doing herself a disservice.

Bo Siheng's gaze remained fixed on He Yan, his eyes filled with a doting and indulgent affection that others could not detect. Liking is unconditional favoritism, while love often brings a sense of indebtedness.

His cigarette always tugged at his heartstrings.

He believed everything He Yan said—her secrets, her schemes, and all her actions.

I like what she likes, and I hate what she hates.

Being her strongest support and backing is his belief.

Therefore, he would not allow anyone to obscure the brilliance of such a shining pearl.

This is the light in his heart, and the dream he wants to protect.

He Yiyi waited in vain for a response from anyone.

Aside from her second brother, even her mother tried to speak several times, but was stopped by her father's gaze. She opened her mouth but said nothing, as if the whole world had abandoned her.

She seems to have reached a dead end.

But I'm not willing to give up. How can I be forced to admit defeat like this?

Shu Peilan was still sobbing softly, and Mr. and Mrs. Shu were quietly comforting her.

He Zhengyuan felt that he had completely lost face.

Regardless of who is the mastermind behind today's events, they are all members of the He family, and he cannot escape responsibility.

"Mr. Shu, it's all my fault for not managing the household properly..."

"Mr. He, how are you asking me to respond to that?"

President Shu kept his temper in check; after all, the Shu family was a prominent family in Beijing.

Now they have suffered such great humiliation.

“I’m here to hear the truth and seek justice for my daughter, not to listen to your family’s wrangling.”

He glanced at He Yan cautiously and found that she did not seem angry.

It seems that this is also the kind of thing she wanted to handle.

If he could figure out He Yan's thoughts and accept her favor, then his trip wouldn't have been in vain.

At this moment, He Yiyi also turned her head and stared at He Huijun.

“Aunt, the Shu family won’t let this go. Someone has to step up and take responsibility. Otherwise, we won’t be able to bring down He Yan, and we’ll both end up in trouble.”

She took a step forward without making a sound and whispered in her aunt's ear.

He made her a vague and unrealistic promise.

"I have a way to bring Xiaoyue back."

"Do you have any idea?"

He Huijun stared wide-eyed and gasped, her eyes burning with an intense determination.

Her daughter is the one she cares about most, and she dreams of her coming back.

If both of them fall into He Yan's hands today, all her calculations will be in vain, and she will never see her daughter again.

He Huijun lowered her eyes, as if she was mentally preparing herself.

Then, he suddenly looked up, his eyes flashing with unprecedented hatred.

"Big brother! Have you ever treated me like your sister? Why can't you see my suffering?"

She pointed at several people on the field, her eyes blazing with fury.

“I am an elder, yet I have to put up with the attitude of these younger generation. The shares that the old man gave me are not even as many as those of one of his grandchildren. How can you expect me to be content with this?”

For the sake of her daughter, He Huijun believed He Yiyi's words.

Therefore, she was willing to risk everything.
