She died tragically at her engagement banquet, and was reborn to marry the heir of the Beijing elite

"Sister, are you sure you haven't made a mistake? Is the younger sister you're looking for really me?" Shen Mengxia was still a little hesitant to believe it.

"Of course I'm sure. Is the paternity test you gave me as a police officer fake?" Shen Mengqing held her sister's hand tightly, her gaze unwavering.

Shen Mengxia felt a mix of emotions, a sense of bewilderment at the sudden change in her background, coupled with an irrepressible joy. But then she remembered Fu's mother's刁难 (diāonán, making things difficult for her), and frowned, saying, "Sister, even so, what about the Fu family..."

Shen Mengqing sneered: "Hmph, what is the Fu family? Now that we know your true identity, we don't need to take the Fu family's petty tricks seriously. Our Shen family has substantial assets and extensive connections overseas."

"But sister, I have to report to the closed research group now. I need to rethink my relationship with Ye Huaiting. I... I'm a little confused right now," Shen Mengxia sincerely confided to her sister.

Shen Mengqing patted her head affectionately: "Silly sister, I understand what you're thinking. But you don't need to be too troubled. The reason I didn't tell you before was because things are a bit chaotic inside the family right now. So, just focus on your research for now."

Shen Mengxia nodded, feeling more confident.

The two sisters chatted for a long time, giving each other words of advice before parting ways.

Watching her sister's departing figure, Shen Mengxia secretly made up her mind that no matter what the future held, she would live a wonderful life of her own.

Shen Mengqing couldn't tell Shen Mengxia too much or in too much detail. Even she herself was exhausted from dealing with the internal affairs of the family, so she came to Z country to hide. She said she was looking for her sister, but it was also true that she was avoiding the family's internal strife.

After seeing her sister off and returning to her dormitory, Shen Mengxia immediately contacted her professor to apply for a leave of absence.

I've already been late for several days, time is running out, and I don't have much time left.

Although she knew from Shen Mengqing's words that she was also a young lady from a wealthy family, and even that her family was more powerful than the Fu family, she still felt it was unreal. Growing up with her grandfather taught her from a young age that the most secure thing was to hold onto both money and skills firmly in her own hands.

She didn't want to rely on anyone. She had relied on the Fu family for 7 years, but Fu's mother cut her off from the Fu family with a single sentence. In the end, she only got a credit card after 7 years.

When she reunited with her sister, she talked about how wealthy the Shen family was and how noble her own status was, but in the end, they were no different. Before leaving, Shen Mengqing also slipped her a card.

Upon hearing that it was the crucial and highly anticipated national research project, the professor's eyes lit up, and he demonstrated a high degree of importance and efficiency in processing the leave of absence.

After a series of tense but orderly operations, surprisingly, all the relevant procedures were completed in just one morning! This speed is nothing short of miraculous.

That afternoon, Shen Mengxia went shopping alone, deciding to buy some daily necessities and a change of clothes.

After all, this trip might be quite long, and since I've already decided to participate in such an important research project, the glamorous clothes I brought from the Fu family are clearly not suitable for this new environment.

Meanwhile, inside the incredibly luxurious Fu family mansion, Fu Yanchen sat in his spacious and bright study. He listened intently as his bodyguard gave him a detailed report on the latest developments regarding Shen Mengxia.

When he heard that she had successfully applied for a leave of absence and had begun preparing her living supplies, Fu Yanchen's brows furrowed tightly, as if a heavy stone had been placed on his heart.

A moment later, Fu Yanchen could no longer suppress his anxiety and worry. He quickly reached for his phone, which was lying to the side, and skillfully dialed Shen Mengxia's number.

However, all he received was a series of urgent busy signals. As time ticked by, there was still no answer from the other party.

Finally, a cold message came from the other end of the phone: "The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
