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

"What did you say?" Pei Yuning looked at An Yun in disbelief, never expecting him to say such a thing.

If before, An Yun could excuse himself by saying that Ru Shuo and his group's plan was quite meticulous and that he was blinded by love and failed to see through their deception, now that the facts are clearly laid out in front of him, he still insists on protecting Tu Mumu, preferring to be deceived himself rather than let Tu Mumu be punished.

The An family simply couldn't understand it; this went far beyond the realm of being a simp, and they even suspected that An Yun had been cursed.

An Shuhai asked An Yun with a hint of disappointment:

"Why didn't you call the police? Even if you don't care about the money, so many people have played you for a fool and deceived your feelings. Can you really swallow this?"

How come he never thought his second son had such a weak personality? How could the An family raise such a timid child?

An Shuhai was beginning to wonder if he hadn't paid enough attention to An Yun, and didn't even know why he had suddenly become like this, or if there was something wrong with his parenting that made him lack love.

An Shuhai thought about it more and more and it made more sense. An Yun must be starved for love, which is why she became so brainless when she was in a relationship.

Otherwise, he simply couldn't understand how An Yun could be so deeply in love with a liar like Tu Mumu, and he didn't know what was so special about her that could make An Yun feel so frustrated.

"What kind of spell did Tu Mumu cast on you that makes you so protective of her?" Pei Yuning was equally baffled. "Did she save your life?"

“That’s right!” An Yun nodded in agreement. “She did save my life.”

The An family was completely dumbfounded. "Huh??"

“The girl I’ve been looking for, the one who saved me when I was little,” An Jun said, looking very sad. “It’s Tu Mumu.”

An Yun was kidnapped when she was a child, thirteen years ago, when she was only twelve years old.

Families like the An family have many rivals, both overt and covert. Some are competitors, while others are simply jealous or dislike the An family. Sometimes, they are inexplicably hated.

At the time, An Yun was kidnapped by a competitor of the An family. In fact, the two sides did not have any deep hatred, but only some conflicts of interest.

I don't know what the other party was thinking, actually trying to take revenge on An Shuhai by kidnapping An's children.

The other party originally wanted to hire someone to kidnap An's child and then kill him to cover it up, but because he was afraid of being found out, he did not dare to let his own people carry it out, and instead chose to hire a gang that would do the job for a fee.

Fortunately, the group he hired probably had some reservations and didn't want to kill the child themselves.

So after kidnapping An Yun, they didn't kill him as he demanded. Instead, they pretended to have completed the mission, and after receiving the money, they traveled to several provinces and dumped An Yun in a remote mountain forest to let him die.

An Yun persevered in the mountains for two days with his will to survive, but he was unable to make it down. He was exhausted, hungry, and had a high fever, and eventually collapsed on the mountain.

Later, in a daze, he realized that he seemed to have been carried for a very long time, and then he was put on a bed.

An Yun was in a daze and could not see anything clearly. He held on to his savior's hand with all his might. That person was the only one he could rely on now, and he was afraid that if he let go, the other person would leave him.

Fortunately, the savior did not break free from An Jun's grasp. Instead, he gently stroked An Jun's head with his other hand, comforting him and telling him not to be afraid. He also asked him where he lived.

An Jun then realized that the person who had carried him for so long was a girl. With his remaining consciousness, he recited his family's phone number and asked the girl to take off the jade pendant he was wearing around his neck and put it away, saying that he wanted to use it to repay her for saving his life.

An Jun only remembered that the girl seemed to smile and didn't want to accept it, probably taking his words, which were just childish, as a joke.

Realizing that the other party did not believe her, An Yun cried in distress.

But he was so delirious with fever that he couldn't even speak properly. He just kept repeating that she must keep the jade pendant safe. Only after the girl finally agreed did An Jun feel at ease and fall into a deep sleep. When he woke up again, he had already been taken back to the hospital in Haicheng by the An family.

An Yun was young at the time and had been burning up for several days, so her memories of those days were always vague. It took her a long time to recover before she slowly remembered what happened.

He finally remembered that he was rescued by a girl carrying him down the mountain, but he didn't see the girl's face clearly or ask her name. He could only tell his parents about it and ask them to help him find the girl.

Of course, Mr. and Mrs. An cared deeply about their son's saviors; in fact, they had already looked for them before.

When An Jia received the call, he learned that An Yun was actually in a clinic in a remote town called Huailin Town outside the province.

When they arrived, An Yun was still unconscious, so they could only ask the doctor at the clinic for information. They learned that a little girl had carried An Yun to the clinic.

The doctor didn't know the girl either. He only said that after she had contacted An Yun's family, she asked the doctor to take care of An Yun for a while, saying that she had no money on her and needed to go home to get some medical expenses before leaving. She never came back.

The doctor at the clinic told the An family that the child was probably from a small village in the town or nearby mountains.

The An family sent people to stay in town to inquire for a long time, but there was still no news.

Later, after An Jun regained his memory, he told his family that the girl had carried him down the mountain. The An family then expanded their investigation, sending people to inquire in the villages under the town's jurisdiction, but still found nothing. No one had ever heard of a girl saving a twelve-year-old boy.

Afterwards, the An family would occasionally send people back to that town to investigate, but several years passed and they still didn't get any useful information.

Even though the gang that kidnapped An Yun and the people who ordered them to commit the crime were caught, no clues were found about the girl, and the An family gradually gave up.

But An Jun did not give up. He kept dreaming of the girl gently stroking his head and softly telling him not to be afraid. He also regretted more and more why he hadn't asked her name back then.

Later, as An Yun became a singer and his influence grew, he would often talk about this story when participating in programs or holding concerts, hoping that one day he could repay his savior, and also hoping that the girl would see it and contact him so that he would have the opportunity to thank her in person.

So when he first saw the jade pendant worn by Tu Mumu, he was incredibly excited. The person he had thought about for more than ten years had finally appeared before his eyes, and An Yun felt as if he were dreaming.

But he never expected that the person who saved him back then would lie to him.

"Are you sure it's her?" An Chong was still somewhat doubtful. "You've mentioned looking for her on many occasions over the years. Could it be that Yu Rushuo deliberately hired someone to impersonate her?"

“Yeah, could it be that they made a fake jade pendant?” Qiu Nian also raised the question.

She also knew about An Yun's search for her savior. Even she, who had no prior connection with An Yun, had heard the story many times. As An Yun's friend, Yu Rushuo must know more details.

An Yun shook her head and denied it:

“Impossible. I have never mentioned the specific design of that jade pendant in public. Although I mentioned it to Yu Rushuo, how could I possibly make an identical fake based on just a verbal description? That jade pendant must be real.”

An Yun's words make sense; his jade pendant is an antique, a gift from his grandfather for his first birthday.

It is a one-of-a-kind item in the world, and it would be very difficult to fake. It is unlikely that Yu Rushuo could do something like this.

An Ling's perfectly timed inner voice also confirms this.

[Yu Rushuo initially devised this scam tailor-made for his second brother after discovering the jade pendant Tu Mumu was wearing.]

Although I really don't want to believe that my second brother would deliberately lie to the person who saved his life after searching for so long, the jade pendant is indeed real, and Tu Mumu is definitely that savior.

[Besides, Second Brother isn't a complete fool. He secretly investigated Tu Mumu's background back then, and she really was from a remote village under Huailin Town.]
