I think my luck is turning around.

"Go back and tell your mother that your sister is alright, and that she can rest assured."

It was just a simple sentence, which left people scratching their heads, but Sugami seemed to understand. Naturally, she happily ran home, eager to tell her mother about it so that she could feel at ease.

Su Lan watched his son leave, running into the mansion without looking back, not even glancing at Su Han, his sister! Su Lan was furious, but he didn't lash out; his face remained dark. What did this mean? Was he just going to lie through his teeth like this?

But the younger sister Ji Xia is referring to now is definitely not Su Han. No matter what, Su Han is his only daughter. Even if that other one comes back, Su Han will always be his.

"Mr. Ji..."

Before Su Lan could finish speaking, someone else spoke up. An Ge didn't want to talk, but faced with Mu An's chatter, she had no choice but to push the plot forward.

"Lord Su, you should think back to why you abandoned your daughter. Otherwise, your entire Su family might not be able to continue to survive here."

The tone was full of threats, which annoyed An Ge to no end. However, Su Lan showed no change in emotion. She just looked at the person who had spoken, without shock, doubt, or confusion. She simply stared at An Ge coldly.

"I didn't abandon my child, please release my daughter!"

Su Lan looked at Su Han with heartache; her child had suffered a great injustice!

"In that case, Lord Su must have forgotten his time in the Northern Territory, and he must have forgotten his lover there as well. Her daughter can't stay in the Northern Territory forever! She's dead, but her daughter must live, right? So you resolutely abandoned your and your wife's daughter, just so that Su Han could return to the Su family a few years later, right?"

Ji Xia's voice was so calm, how could she let him live such a peaceful life?

“We are talking about your daughter with your wife Yan Lanhui, not your daughter with Meng Miao.”

An Ge's voice was tinged with schadenfreude. His attempt to confuse the situation was so childish; how could anyone not see through it?

"You don't need to confuse the issue here. If Mr. Ji wasn't 100% certain, why would he take action?"

An Ge's provocative voice still lingered, but Su Lan was stunned when An Ge uttered Meng Miao's name. No one should know of Meng Miao's existence, so how did she know? She was long dead, and all traces of her had been erased! The entire village had been wiped out!

"You're ruthless, but how can you just gloss over villages that were slaughtered for no reason and villages that suddenly disappeared?"

An Ge was already feeling angry. The indiscriminate killing of innocent people was right before his eyes, even his own child had been victimized—kidnapping someone and killing someone. How could such things be covered up? Thinking of this, An Ge's emotions were completely agitated.

"Mr. Ji, this man has been indiscriminately killing innocent people and should be executed!"

“An… Miss Simian, please calm down. This person will naturally be punished. Right now, the issue is Su Han's, while Lord Su's matter will be handled by others!”

Ji Xia realized that An Ge in front of her had become emotional. It was true that they were from an entire village, but Su Lan had reported that they had been massacred by an enemy country, making it difficult to investigate now. However, it was still possible to punish him through other means.

"Does Lord Su understand now? Your daughter killed your daughter, and Su Han killed my child, so I want her to pay with her life."

How could Su Lan not understand? That girl still came back, and still with such a high status. Su Han was too foolish. Ji Ran wouldn't return to the Su family, but she was too scared. She was just a little child afraid of losing her parents!

“Mr. Ji, I am willing to accept punishment for Han’er. I hope Mr. Ji will forgive me.”

"Han'er? Then wasn't the child she killed my most beloved child? What an affectionate name. My Ji Ran just wanted to see her mother and feel her own maternal love."

She never thought of going back anywhere, nor did she ever think of stealing anyone's identity; all she wanted was her mother's love. The love she missed for over a decade, the pain of being abandoned for over a decade—only she knew it.

The person who came out of the residence ran forward eagerly until he fell down at Ji Xia's feet.

"Is Mr. Ji real? Ran'er is still alive? Is it true?"
