After Jin Wuyou settled down, Jin Hanxi and Lan Mingyue finally had time to tidy themselves up and then went to Jin Zhengqing's courtyard to discuss some things with their family.

"Third brother, Mingyue, what are your thoughts on these two children?" Old Master Jin, sitting at the head of the table, asked.

“Dad, Wuyou is my biological daughter, and her identity is indisputable. Wushuang is not our child. No matter how magnanimous we are, we can only do our best to overlook her past and find her biological parents to send her back.” Lan Mingyue said almost without hesitation.

Grandpa Jin nodded, then turned to Jin Hanxi and asked, "Third brother, what do you think?"

“Mingyue is right. She is not our child and should return to her biological parents. But before she leaves, we should sever all ties with the Jin and Lan families regarding what she did. There’s no reason for us to clean up her mess later.”

Jin Hanxi's tone was so firm that it brooked no argument.

He had questioned himself countless times, and doubted that he was the worst person in the world, that he was so disliked by his own daughter.

It wasn't until Wuyou appeared that he truly felt the bond of blood.

When she stood at his feet and looked up at him, her clear eyes filled with curiosity and admiration, not fear, his wounded heart finally began to beat again.

Jin Wushuang is still young, so he can't take revenge on her, but he will never let her roam around him.

"What if Jin Wushuang's parents are both gone?" Jin Zhengqing hesitated before finally asking this question.

With neither of her parents alive, Jin Wushuang was an orphan. She had lived with the Jin family since she was a child, and in fact, the Jin family and Jin Wushuang had formed an adoption relationship. Legally, Jin Wushuang had become the adopted daughter of the Jin family.

However, according to interstellar law, abandonment is a crime.

No matter how powerful and influential the Jin family is, they cannot openly violate the law.

"Let her be raised. Putting aside her past treatment, raising a child won't cost many star coins. Our family also owns property in a remote star system, so we can just send her there." Jin Hanxi closed his eyes and calmed himself down for a while before speaking.

Jin Zhengqing above also took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to hit someone.

"Didn't you two see Jin Wushuang's physical examination report? If it were that simple, would I have asked you about it?"

"Fine, go back and take a good look at this, then give me a reply."

Meanwhile, in Jin Hanxi and Lan Mingyue's room, Wuyou was still fast asleep, with only Qiu Bai and Nan Mu guarding the living room outside.

A small figure peeked in cautiously.

Knowing the way well, they went straight to Wuyou's room to rest.

Just as she placed her hand on the doorknob of Wuyou's room, intending to push the door open, she was interrupted by a voice.

"Miss Wushuang, the young lady is resting, please do not disturb her. Also, if I remember correctly, today is not a holiday for the school."

Jin Hanxi's adjutants, Qiu Bai and Nan Mu, spoke at the same time.

"Qiu Bai, Nan Mu, who are you calling 'Miss'? I am the eldest daughter of the Jin family!" Jin Wushuang turned around and corrected the two.

"Has Miss not received the news yet? Just now, the head of the family issued a statement both internally and externally."

"Jin Wuyou, the eldest daughter of the Jin family, has successfully awakened her bloodline power. The statement released by the family head and the video released by reporters have both topped the trending searches."

Qiu Bai and Nan Mu remained polite to Jin Wushuang.

In their own view, they were simply stating a fact.

However, in Jin Wushuang's view, they were deliberately provoking him.

She turned on her personal terminal and saw the top trending topic immediately appear. Jin Wushuang clenched her fists, her eyes filled with resentment.

In the past, given her personality, she would have definitely had Jin Wuyou dragged out of bed, thrown into the beast cage, broken all her bones, and tossed out like trash.

What kind of inferior creature is she to even enter her home?

Even though her anger was burning fiercely, she dared not do anything excessive.

She could only glare fiercely at Wuyou's door before reluctantly turning and leaving.

Before he had taken more than a few steps, he bumped head-on into Jin Yiling, who was coming right at the same time.

"What are you doing here? How did you leave the school? And who let you in?"

"I'm warning you, if you dare to hurt Wuyou, I will definitely kill you!"

Faced with Jin Yiling's disdain, wariness, and disbelief, Jin Wushuang let out a cold laugh.

"Jin Yiling, you are such a loving older brother. It's a pity that I was here before, and Jin Wuyou will be here in the future. You will always be the most superfluous one in this family. You are a bastard. You will not and do not deserve the love of your family."

Jin Wushuang laughed smugly and arrogantly, and the words he uttered were so offensive.

Even so, Jin Wushuang's anger was not abated.

Since those people replaced them, why didn't they just kill Jin Wuyou instead of letting her be brought back?

Hearing her words, Jin Yiling clenched his fists in pain and closed his eyes to ease the pain in his heart.

“I told you you were a piece of trash…” Jin Wuyou took two steps forward, her face full of mockery. Before she could finish speaking, Jin Yiling’s fist landed on her face.

Nine-year-old Jin Yiling had been training for five or six years, and her punch knocked Jin Wushuang to the ground.

Tasting the metallic flavor in her mouth, Jin Wushuang opened her eyes wide in disbelief; this was the first time she had ever been hit.

"Jin Yiling! Do you want to die!" She sat on the ground, her shrill cries echoing throughout the room.

"What's going on? Jin Wushuang, what are you doing here?!"

"Yi Ling, are you alright?"

Upon hearing the commotion, Jin Hanxi and Lan Mingyue quickly ran up to the second floor together.

Jin Wushuang, his face covered in tears and his mouth full of blood, lay broken on the ground. When he saw Jin Hanxi and his wife approaching, he looked pitifully at Jin Yiling.

"Brother, I know that what I did before was wrong. Even if I'm not your biological sister, you can't treat me like this!"

"I just wanted to see my sister who suffered so much for me."

Jin Wushuang cried bitterly, but none of the onlookers felt any pity.

"There are no outsiders here, who are you putting on this for?" Jin Hanxi said sarcastically.

Qiu Bai, Nan Mu, Jin Yiling, Jin Hanxi, and Lan Mingyue—each of them knows her inside and out.

Jin Wushuang dislikes Jin Hanxi and has always wanted Lan Mingyue to divorce her husband and marry that pretentious, down-on-his-luck painter.

She has done many things like framing and slandering Jin Hanxi and his wife in an attempt to sow discord between them.

Qiu Bai and Nan Mu followed the couple, watching helplessly as she hurt them terribly with her outrageous behavior.

Especially Jin Hanxi, a man who was invincible on the battlefield, almost died in his own home, and was even killed by his own daughter. Who wouldn't say it's tragic?

The key point is that Jin Wushuang often takes pride in seeing Jin Hanxi's face.

Now it's all right; she has absolutely no connection with the Jin family or the Lan family.

"Nan Mu, arrange for someone to send her back to the reformatory so that the teachers can properly educate her."

Lan Mingyue didn't even bother to look at her and simply ordered her to be sent away.

"Qiu Bai, go and find out who helped Jin Wushuang come back." Jin Wushuang is only four years old. It's impossible for her to leave the school and bypass the Jin family's guards to enter the house on her own.

Her open and aboveboard appearance seemed more like a show of force by those behind her against the Jin and Lan families, or perhaps the work of those fools from the collateral branches.

Jin Wushuang was sent away with her mouth covered by Nan Mu, and neither Jin Hanxi nor Lan Mingyue gave her a single glance.

"I'll talk to my father and arrange bodyguards for Wuyou as soon as possible. I'll stay by her side to protect her during this time." If it's just a collateral branch trying to cause trouble for the direct line, then there's no need to pay much attention. It's more likely that it's those mysterious forces.

If this is orchestrated by a first-rate empire, given the vast difference in size between the two empires and their boundless resources, and with Jin Wuyou now fully exposed, it would be far too dangerous.
