The richest man's parents were kidnapped, and his adorable son captivated the entire family.

"Xiaobai!" Mengmeng looked at Xiaobai, who was rushing upstairs, with a guilty expression.

She has indeed neglected Xiaobai these past few days, leaving it alone at the Gu family home, not even knowing if it's doing well or if it's been bullied.

She lowered her head sadly, a tear streaking across the sky and landing on the carpet, leaving a small dark stain.

Gu Shiyu came to Mengmeng's side and asked nervously, "Did Xiaobai catch you?"

Mengmeng shook her head, choking back tears, "No, no."

"What is the reason for that?" Gu Shiyu became even more nervous.

If you don't ask, she can still hold back her emotions. But once you do, Mengmeng can't control herself and cries even harder.

Gu Shiyu placed both hands in front of Mengmeng, as if to catch her tears, "Mengmeng, don't cry, it hurts your heart to see you crying."

"I..." Mengmeng sniffled and looked at Gu Shiyu.

On the second-floor landing, Xiaobai peeked out, secretly observing Mengmeng downstairs.

Why are you crying?

Xiaobai felt a little guilty. It had thrown a tantrum to remind Mengmeng to take it with her if a similar situation occurred again, but it hadn't meant to make her cry.

"Weren't you going to find Mengmeng? Now that she's back, why are you saying such hurtful things?" Xiao Hei wagged its tail and came to Xiao Bai's side.

"You don't understand!" Xiaobai retorted stubbornly.

Xiao Hei glanced at it and said again, "Yes, I don't understand. If you keep going like this, Mengmeng really won't stay with you anymore."

"Impossible!" Xiaobai retorted, her face flushed.

It stayed with Mengmeng when she was in the orphanage. Later, it accompanied her to live with the Gu family. They were like family, so it was impossible for it to ignore her just because of those few words it had just said.

Looking down at the stairs, Mengmeng, who had just been crying at the top of the stairs, was now being helped to sit down on the sofa in the living room by Gu Shiyu.

Mengmeng had her back to this side, so Xiaobai couldn't see her face clearly, let alone her appearance at this moment.

"Stop being hypocritical. If you miss her, go down there." Little Black raised its paw, placed it on Little White's back, and pressed down hard.

While Xiaobai was still hesitating, the leopard next to her had already stuck close to Mengmeng.

Watching Mengmeng stroke the fur on his back, Xiaobai felt jealous and regretful.

If it hadn't said those words, it would definitely be the one in Mengmeng's arms.

"Sir, Madam!"

Aunt Ping, who had been standing by their side since they returned, spoke up when she saw the situation.

The sudden call left both Gu Yinshen and Ruolan somewhat puzzled.

"Aunt Ping, what's wrong?" Gu Yinshen asked.

"Miss Sweetie, she...she's been possessed by an evil spirit since last night and hasn't woken up yet!" Aunt Ping gritted her teeth and told her in one breath.

Bewitched?

Gu Yinshen pressed further, "What do you mean by being possessed by an evil spirit?"

“Yes, what did she do last night?” Ruolan chimed in from the side.

The situation happened so suddenly last night that they didn't notice Tian Tian when they drove away. But she didn't have a headache, fever, or stomach upset at the time, so how could she be possessed?

Aunt Ping looked at Aunt Xue, who stepped forward and began to recount the thrilling events of the previous night.

Upon hearing this, Gu Shiyu immediately scoffed, "There is no such thing as ghosts or gods in this world. She is probably doing this on purpose to cover up her crimes."

“I borrowed it too. She took advantage of our inability to do things as we wanted to do, and did too many things that hurt Mengmeng, so she pulled this stunt to make us not blame her,” Gu Jingsi said from the side.

In fact, Gu Yinshen had a question in his mind: they had been acting like they were possessed these past few days, but why were they ignoring Mengmeng and focusing all their attention on her?

He looked up at the second floor and asked, "Still in the room upstairs?"

Aunt Ping nodded, "Yes, when you weren't back, we hesitated about whether to call and send her to the hospital."

"I'll go up and take a look," Gu Yinshen said, and walked towards the second floor.

Gu Jingsi muttered, "Make a phone call and send him straight to the hospital. Whether he's faking illness or possessed, the doctor will know once he examines him."

Mengmeng looked up at Gu Yinshen walking away; she didn't really want to go upstairs.

She knew that as a family, she shouldn't hold grudges, but the hurt her older sister Tian Tian had caused her, coupled with the contrast with Tang Tang, made it impossible for her to pretend that nothing had happened and continue to try to win her over.

She looked away, her heart filled with deep turmoil.

Ruolan noticed this and quietly sat down next to Mengmeng.

Mengmeng's hand, which was resting on her knee, was suddenly grasped. She turned her head and met Ruolan's gaze.

"mom!"

"Do whatever you want, without thinking too much."

Ruolan gently patted the back of her hand.

Did Mengmeng notice that she was in a bad mood?

Mengmeng thought to herself, and then she spoke her mind: "I really want to be best friends with Sister Tiantian, but it seems like she never likes me. Mom, I don't want to take Sister Mengmeng's place. I want to receive the love of Mom and Dad, and all the uncles and brothers with her."

Hearing these words, Ruolan felt as if her heart was being ripped apart, aching and distressed. She opened her arms and hugged Mengmeng tightly, saying, "Mommy knows, Mommy knows everything."

She knew all too well that from the moment she brought Tian Tian back, Meng Meng had become extremely cautious in this home.

Sweetie was unwilling to open her heart to her, probably because she thought that Mengmeng had taken her place, which was why she had been left alone and had not been found by them.

They all knew this, but because Mengmeng had been so tolerant and accommodating, no major conflicts had arisen between them. So they kept quiet, neither asking nor trying to fix the already distorted relationship.

Mengmeng carefully placed her hand on Ruolan's back. "Mom, don't be sad. Mengmeng will try her best to get Sister Tiantian to accept me."

“No need to try.” Ruolan held Mengmeng’s shoulders, pulled her away from her embrace, and looked at her seriously. “You are also your parents’ daughter. In this family, you have the same status as them.”

Gu Jingsi, who was standing to the side, secretly wiped away his tears and forced himself to sit down next to Mengmeng. "What's the point of trying? You are my niece, a member of the Gu family, and you should enjoy the same treatment as everyone else."

He turned to Ruolan and Gu Shiyu and said, "After returning to China, I learned that your biological daughter had neglected Mengmeng. I have decided that since you cannot treat her equally, I will take Mengmeng away."

"Impossible!" Gu Shiyu protested, jumping up and down. "Mengmeng is my sister, and she will always live in our family!"
