Xue Duo dialed the number again in disbelief, but…
"The number you have dialed is unavailable."
Gu Yang decisively turned off her phone to catch up on her sleep. Everything could wait until she woke up.
She had not slept at all that night when she first transmigrated, so she slept until eleven o'clock.
When she came out of the cloakroom, Mrs. Li told her, "Miss, Young Master Xue Duo and Mrs. Xue from the Xue family are here."
Gu Yang vaguely remembered that she had received a call in the morning. It was from Xue Duo. At that time, her consciousness was hazy, but now she remembered who Xue Duo was.
The Xue family was also a wealthy family in Jin City, and they were even better than the Gu family. Back then, before Gu Yang was born, the Xue family and the Gu family had already verbally agreed to an arranged marriage. All these years, the Gu and Xue families had indeed been interested in conducting a political marriage.
So, Xue Duo was her fiancé?
No, to be precise, he was Gu Jin's fiancé.
In the novel, the original owner of the body had a good impression of Xue Duo. After knowing that she was the fake daughter of the Gu family, she felt that the Gu family's treatment of her was not as good as before. Thus, she complained about the Gu family and tried all means to marry Xue Duo, even betraying the Gu family.
In the end, the Gu family was destroyed and the Gu family's assets were annexed by the Xue family. Of course, the Xue family did not end well either when they went against the male and female protagonists.
Gu Yang opened WeChat and scrolled down. With a cursory glance, she saw that most of them were asking her about the trending topics. She opened Weibo and the first trending topic was…
#The real and fake daughter of the wealthy Gu family in Jin City#
[Secrets of the Wealthy Family V: Breaking news! Sensational rich family drama! A child swapped at birth! The little princess of Zhaofeng Entertainment and a genius pianist, Gu Yang, was actually a fake heiress and swapped at birth! The real daughter was actually left in an orphanage in the countryside for 17 years… According to sources, the real daughter of the Gu family has been brought back home, but Gu Group doesn't seem to have any intention of revealing the identity of the real daughter. Are they planning to stick to the status quo?]

[Schrödinger's Dog V: Maybe the Gu family is preparing to make it public? Let's wait.]
"Secrets of the Wealthy Family V" was a verified account that specialized in exposing the melodramatic incidents of wealthy families. As long as there was evidence, they would dare to expose anything. They had high credibility with the public.
What's more, the netizens were already interested in the matters of the wealthy families. In addition, Zhaofeng Entertainment was one of the four major entertainment companies in the country. They were often active on Weibo, so this matter became even hotter online.
After such a thing happened, the Gu family would definitely suppress the trending topic. However, this trending topic was still online. It could be seen that someone was adding fuel to the fire.
Gu Yang went downstairs thoughtfully.
"Yangyang, come over and say hi to Auntie Xue and Brother Xue Duo." Ruan Xueling invited Gu Yang to sit down.
The mother and son were sitting on the opposite sofa.
Gu Yang greeted them politely.
Mrs. Xue nodded at Gu Yang with a slightly superior attitude. As for Xue Duo, he only sneered and didn't even look at Gu Yang. His attitude was arrogant and disrespectful.
Ruan Xueling had a fiery temper, but the Gu family was inferior to the Xue family. She had no choice but to humble herself. "Mrs. Xue, although Yangyang isn't our biological daughter, she's still the daughter of the Gu family…"
Mrs. Xue interrupted Ruan Xueling and smiled. "Mrs. Gu, I like Yangyang too, but as you know, when it comes to marriages between powerful families, blood ties are very important."
Although she said it tactfully, what she meant was that a fake daughter like Gu Yang was not worthy of marrying the son of the Xue family.
Ruan Xueling's expression was ugly. Of course, she knew. That was why she didn't want to reveal Gu Jin and Gu Yang's identities. She was also afraid that Gu Yang would lose the engagement with the Xue family.
