Xie Ru and Xie Wutong held their breaths. Was Xie Wutong looking in their direction?
"Wutong, what are you doing? Have you forgotten what your father said? Now is not a good time to make a move. You can't wait for only such a short period of time."
"Mom, can't you see that sl*t? Her eyes are about to heal. Even Grandpa is already on her side. No one will help me. And Dad only cares about benefits."
Qin Zhen looked at Xie Wutong with a pained expression. It was all because of that b*tch. She was supposed to be a puppet, yet she still dared to jump around in front of them. A vicious glint flashed in her eyes.
"Wutong, you still have me. Since Mom can steal your dad from Tang Yanran and make her a lunatic, then I can make Xie Ru shut up forever."
"But Mom, I can't wait anymore. I want Xie Ru to disappear right now."
"Wait a little longer, Xie Wutong. Today is your grandfather's birthday. Don't take any actions or you'll never be able to turn things around."
Xie Wutong could only nod, but she held the medicine bottle tightly in her hands as an unusual light flashed in her eyes.
After Qin Zhen and her daughter had left, Xie Ru and Qin Zhen slowly came out.
"It seems that the Xie family is not simple, especially your second aunt."
Xie Ru smirked. Xie Zhen was even more brilliant than Qin Zhen in his methods. Until now, she had not found any evidence that he had framed her parents.
Still, Qin Zhen was also pretty good herself. When she married Xie Zhen twenty-three years ago, she thought they would live together in perfect harmony for life.
Little did she expect that her husband would have an affair a week after their wedding. How arrogant the lover must have been. But Qin Zhen only needed to lift a finger and was already able to find out that the lover was Tang Yanran, the apple of the Tang family's eye.
When Tang Yanran was seven months pregnant, Qin Zhen killed the baby. Tang Yanran could not stand the trauma and went crazy. When the Tang family found out about it, they tried their best to get revenge, but it was to no avail. In the end, the Tang family ended up bankrupt and the perpetrator was still at large.
Xie Ru had met Tang Yanran once when she was young. She was a very sensible woman. It was Xie Zhen and the Xie family who did not have the fortune to accept her as a daughter-in-law.
"It seems that Xie Wutong does not intend to stop. If you beg me, I might just be willing enough to help you."
Xie Ru looked at He Youying and smiled before shamelessly saying, "Then I beg of you, help me."
"Tsk, I thought you would have a firmer stance. I didn't expect you to be like this, Xie Ru."
"Then I have to get to know my younger sister better in the future."
"Younger sister? I'm obviously the older one, Younger Sister."
Xie Ru suspiciously asked, "I was born in the first month. How about you? You can't be older than me."
"Then you must have been clueless, I was also born in the first month." He Youying smiled faintly.
"I was born early in the morning of the first day."
"What a coincidence, me too."
"Two o'clock."
"Two o'clock."
The two of them looked at each other. Could it really be such a coincidence?
"Twelve minutes."
"Twelve minutes."
A blurry figure appeared in Xie Ru's mind. A girl placed a doll beside her and appeared to be smiling at her. She also smiled happily.
She had seen her before.
"If our fates are so intertwined, why didn't we know each other long ago? If only we knew each other long ago, we might be better off than we are now."
"Maybe we've known each other before."
When He Youying heard this, perhaps it was true. The first time she saw Xie Ru, she did feel as if the latter looked familiar.
She curled her lips and said, "Then I must have known you first."
Xie Ru and He Youying bickered as they slowly walked away. Little did they know that a tall man had been standing behind them. The corner of the man's mouth rose slightly as he muttered, "I met you first."
