"No! No!"

Shen Qingqing quickly shook her head and explained, "You know the Shen family is a wealthy and powerful family, how could we possibly do such a thing?!"

"Oh?"

Shi Xiaxia raised an eyebrow at Shen Qingqing and said slowly, "Then why don't you, the young lady of the Shen family, explain to me why your Shen family would recognize an orphan like me as their goddaughter?"

[Oh my god! Is there something wrong with my ears?!]

[What?! What?! What shocking news is this?!]

[Holy crap! The Shen family actually wants to adopt Shi Xiaxia as their goddaughter?! Are you sure you're not joking?!]

[I have to say, Shi Xiaxia and Qingqing's mother really do look alike!]

After Shi Xiaxia finished speaking, the internet exploded instantly, with barrage comments filled with questions.

Before long, these posts became trending topics and were instantly pinned to the top of the search results. The Shen family didn't even have time to stop them.

Shi Xiaxia completely disregarded the sensation her words caused among the people.

She simply turned her gaze to Shen Yuanshuang and continued, "I have neither talent nor beauty, and my status in the industry is not even comparable to Shen Yuanshuang's."

Why doesn't your Shen family recognize her as their goddaughter?! It would save her the trouble of changing her surname!

Shen Yuanshuang also snapped out of her daze at Shi Xiaxia's words. She was so shocked that her eyes almost popped out!

Why?! Why should the Shen family accept Shi Xiaxia as their goddaughter?! She's no less capable than Shi Xiaxia!

Shen Yuanshuang couldn't believe it, so she looked at Shen Qingqing and asked her for confirmation.

However, at this moment, Shen Qingqing had no time to pay attention to Shen Yuanshuang, and just looked at Shi Xiaxia with a slightly flustered look in her eyes.

She planned to reveal on this show that the Shen family intended to adopt Shi Xiaxia as their goddaughter.

But she can then reveal why Shi Xiaxia didn't become the Shen family's goddaughter.

In this way, all the problems can be logically attributed to Shi Xiaxia.

But now, all her plans have been disrupted by Shi Xiaxia's few words!

Given her kind and gentle personality, she couldn't bring herself to point out any flaws in Shi Xiaxia.

The group had been gathered here for quite some time, and now even Gao Baiquan and Yao Moyan had arrived.

Everyone was here, and Shen Qingqing couldn't let anyone else see through her disguise.

She quickly composed herself, then forced a smile and said to Shi Xiaxia, "Mom said you look a lot like her..."

She felt a connection with you and wanted to take you back so you could keep me company.

Shen Qingqing knew that this explanation was very weak and full of loopholes, but she really couldn't think of a better excuse right now.

However, these words were said by Shen Yi, so even if problems arise in the future, Shen Yi will bear the responsibility.

With this thought, Shen Qingqing felt at ease.

Upon hearing this, Shi Xiaxia couldn't help but chuckle. She looked at the others and asked, "Do you believe this excuse?"

The others all looked puzzled and dared not utter a word, though they already had a vague idea of ​​the answer in their hearts.

Even Shen Yuanshuang, who is not usually very bright, looked at Shi Xiaxia with a livid face and a resentful and jealous expression.

Qiao Zihao wasn't afraid of any of this at all, and immediately shouted, "Isn't this obviously a scam to fool children? We can't just take her back and adopt her as our goddaughter just because she looks like someone!"

Are the Shen family so rich they don't know what to do with their money? They even have a goddaughter...

I think Shen Yu and I look quite alike. Shen Qingqing, why don't you talk to the Shen family and ask them to adopt me as their godson? I'm much better at spending money than Xia Xia!"

Shen Qingqing lowered her head, wiping away her tears with her hands, without saying a word.

Qiao Zihao seemed to see through him and gave a cold laugh.

Then, looking at Shi Xiaxia, he said earnestly, "Xiaxia! You absolutely must not go back to the Shen family! They definitely have something on their minds!"

"I'll check when I get back to see if anyone in the Shen family is sick! After filming, don't be alone. I'll find you two bodyguards to protect you, just in case the Shen family tries anything funny..."

Qiao Zihao kept rambling on and on.

Shi Xiaxia: "......"

She thought Shen Yuanshuang was stupid enough, wearing her thoughts on her sleeve.

I never expected Qiao Zihao to be even more foolish than Shen Yuanshuang! He can't even understand this!

This person is a bit silly! I already guessed the answer!

[Hahaha! This is hilarious! Everyone else understood, but he was the only one who didn't realize it and was still giving Shi Xiaxia advice!]

I have reason to suspect that he only grew a head to look good!

[Is this solid proof?! Is this solid proof?! My God! Shi Xiaxia is also the daughter of the Shen family! What's wrong with one more rich person in this world?!?!]

Shi Xiaxia smiled helplessly and shook her head, then ignored Qiao Zihao.

She took a few steps forward and came to Shen Qingqing's side. Then she raised her left hand and placed it on Shen Qingqing's shoulder, while gently wiping away her tears with her right hand.

"Don't cry, or Madam Shen will say I'm bullying you again, won't she?"

Shi Xiaxia gave a bitter and helpless smile: "Actually, I understand Madam Shen's thoughts. She was only pregnant with one child back then, and the hospital has records of that."

If I were to say that I am the true daughter of the Shen family, you would lose your footing, and even the Shen family would be ridiculed by other wealthy families.

However, if we go along with the mistake and say that I am your goddaughter, we can protect your status and preserve the reputation of the Shen family.

In addition, given my status as an orphan, if they adopt me as their goddaughter, the Shen family can gain a good reputation.

This is a win-win situation!

Seeing Shen Qingqing struggle free and cover her face trembling, Shi Xiaxia raised her hand, took a few steps back, and compromised, saying, "Okay, okay, I won't touch you."

You always say that people of low social standing are not worthy to touch you, but I was taught that everyone is equal, so I always forget that. I'm really sorry.

Last time you had pimples on your face, you blamed me for touching it. I just accidentally touched it again. Why don't you see if you get pimples again this time?

If I get pimples, maybe I really am an inferior person, carrying a super-strong virus!

When such a huge black pot was dumped on her, Shen Qingqing almost couldn't catch her breath.

When did she ever say that Shi Xiaxia was a lower-class person and unworthy to touch her?!

She looked down on Shi Xiaxia, and that was indeed what she thought, but she couldn't be stupid enough to say it out loud!

Shen Qingqing stared wide-eyed at Shi Xiaxia, her chest heaving violently, her mind a jumbled mess, unable to utter a single word of explanation.

Shi Xiaxia sighed again and continued, "Sorry, I went off-topic."

She touched her face, her voice filled with sadness: "Madam Shen really loves you, so she would rather wrong her own daughter than wrong you."

If I hadn't overheard Mrs. Shen and Young Master Shen's conversation, I would have thought that after all these years of suffering, I was finally going to be lucky and have parents!
