The mind-reading fake heiress changes her fate by eating melons.

Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, An Chong had no choice but to speak.

"Xiaoling, we originally wanted to wait until we had investigated everything before we talked to you about this."

"What are you investigating?" An Ling asked, puzzled. "We already have the paternity test report, so the facts are clear: Qiu Nian and I were switched at birth, and she is the An family's daughter."

“We need to investigate how the babies were switched at birth,” An Chong’s voice became serious, “After all…”

An Chong hesitated for a moment. After all, Qiu Nian's current parents were An Ling's biological parents. His next words might imply that he suspected Qiu's parents. It seemed inappropriate to say in front of An Ling that her biological parents were not.

But some things need to be made clear.

"After all, the An family's status is what it is, and we want to find out whether someone from the Qiu family did this on purpose."

Anling: ...

Seeing that An Ling remained silent, An Chong suddenly panicked again.

He thought it was because he had never spoken to Anling so seriously before, which made her sad and scared.

An Ling's parents were also heartbroken. Although An Ling had known about this for a long time and had even been secretly urging them to find out the truth, An Ling must have been very sad when she learned that she was a fake heiress.

Did you cry secretly? Were you also afraid that the An family would kick her out? Were you constantly worried that you would lose the love of the An family?

Thinking about all this, An's father, mother, and An Chong all felt that they were being cruel.

An Ling has clearly done nothing wrong, and is even being threatened by some unknown force, yet they have already considered the possibility of her moving out.

"Xiao Ling," An Chong couldn't bear to speak, "No matter the outcome, it's not your fault. I will still treat you as my sister, and our relationship will not change. Trust your big brother, okay?"

Seeing the inexplicably somber atmosphere and the complex expressions of self-blame, sadness, and inner turmoil on her parents' and older brother's faces, An Ling, knowing her family well, roughly knew what they were imagining.

So Anling cooperated by showing a wronged, scared, and somewhat cautious expression, nodding and softly saying "Mmm" in a tearful voice.

Seeing An Ling like this, the An family felt even worse. They wanted to keep An Ling by their side no matter what. But the next second, An Ling's inner voice rang out.

[No way, no way, could Mom, Dad, and my older brother think the Qiu family deliberately switched me and Qiu Nian, so their daughter could enjoy a life of luxury while the An family's daughter suffers?]

[How else could they have been switched at birth? It must have been a nurse's negligence.]

That's a high-end private hospital. Anyone who can give birth there is either extremely wealthy or powerful. The Qiu family would only do something like that if they had nothing better to do.

They raised Qiu Nian like their own daughter, but unlike the An family, the Qiu family isn't in business, so they're more low-key. Also, they didn't want Qiu Nian to go into the entertainment industry, so she's always had to make her own way in the world.

[I think what you should be considering now isn't whether the Qiu family intentionally switched the children, but whether the Qiu family is willing to let Qiu Nian come back, okay?]

An family: ? ? ?

Although not comparable to a true wealthy family like the An family, the Qiu family is a genuine highly educated family with a high social status.

While Qiu Nian's material life was not as extravagant as the one the An family provided for An Ling, she could still have almost anything she wanted. Moreover, the love the Qiu family gave Qiu Nian was no less than the love the An family gave An Ling.

Therefore, in the original novel, Qiu Nian did not want to come to the An family at first, and the Qiu family did not want Qiu Nian to leave.

But An Ling, the vicious female supporting character, is different. She feels that the Qiu family is no match for the An family. In her eyes, the rich are the best, and the Qiu family can't provide her with as much money and resources as the An family.

She felt that going from being the daughter of the An family to the daughter of the Qiu family was a complete downgrade in social class.

So An Ling threw a tantrum, refusing to go back at all, and gave the Qiu family a cold shoulder, which made them completely disappointed in her as their biological daughter. The An family, on the other hand, were happy to continue living with An Ling as before, since Qiu Nian was unwilling to move in and the two families had switched daughters by accident.

But after the Qiu family had an accident, Qiu Nian was left all alone, so she had no choice but to be taken back by the An family.

It was around that time that An Ling began her self-destructive and vicious supporting role drama. Not only did she target Qiu Nian at every turn, but she also constantly framed her with various things, making the An family increasingly resentful of Qiu Nian.

On occasional occasions when she was exposed, An Ling would play the victim. She understood the An family well and was a very good actress. Every time she was caught, she would pretend that she was acting this way because she loved the An family too much. She would start crying and complaining that she had become sensitive and jealous because she didn't want to lose them. She would also complain that she was a victim and why everyone thought it was her fault.

She even said that she had lost her biological parents and now even the An family, with whom she had lived for so long, didn't want her anymore. So what was the point of her living in this world? She even faked suicide several times.

When An Ling first read the original text, she could barely stand it and even her toes were curled up in disbelief.

She couldn't believe that the person sitting on the ground crying and shouting, "I have feelings too! I've treated you like my own parents and brothers for over twenty years. Just because we're not related by blood, you treat me like this? Even if you raised me like a dog, you shouldn't be so cold-blooded!" was herself.

As it turned out, the An family seemed to have lost their minds and were actually fooled by her, which made Qiu Nian completely disappointed in them.

In short, the original story is about An Ling, the vicious female supporting character, constantly causing trouble and leaving Qiu Nian in a helpless and lonely situation, which laid the foundation for her to be gradually moved by the male lead later on.

An Ling neither understands nor respects the original version of herself. Although she doesn't think she's capable of doing those things, she's starting to doubt herself.

After all, there are precedents to learn from. Just like she didn't think she would be so rude to Yan Yu, but she did it anyway. What if An Ling really goes crazy like in the original story after Qiu Nian comes back?

But what about the An family?

Anling looked at her parents and older brother, finding it hard to believe that they could be so unreasonable.

Is it because of the compelling effect of the plot?

Would things be better if she stopped stirring things up?

【hiss.】

Should we let Qiu Nian come back...?

Hearing An Ling's thoughts, the An family was somewhat surprised, thinking that An Ling did not want Qiu Nian to take back her identity.

[If Qiu Nian comes back, I'll definitely move out to be safer, but what if she's still being bullied by my parents even after I move out?]

An family member: ...Isn't Xiaoling overthinking things?

What image do we have in your mind?

Is he a mentally unstable bully?
