<h4>Chapter 584: The Buried Truth</h4>


    “Enough.” Fang Xinxin patiently announced the end of their act. “What fart of a Second Uncle are you, ‘Long Shuhai’? I should be addressing you as Yang Xueyao, shouldn’t I?”


    She brought out a stack of documents with a passport photo attached to the very first page, and mmed it on the coffee table.


    The passport photo was of Long Shuhai’s face, however the photo was a ck and white shot taken more than ten years ago.


    “Let me tell you a story.” Fang Xinxin began indifferently. “Many years ago, a couple named Fang Huaitian and Zhao Yun gave birth to a beautiful pair of twin girls. They named them Fang Ln and Fang Liyin. Since young, Ln was sensible and thoughtful. Her younger sister, Fang Liyin, however, was always disobedient. During her school days, she smoked, drank, fought and even caused trouble outside. Eventually, when she turned fifteen, she eloped with a gangster named Yang Xueyao. Due to this matter, Fang Huaitian and his wife were angered to the point where they disowned their daughter, Liyin. Five yearster, Fang Ln turned twenty-five and she married Long Yifan. They both adopted a boy named Fang Shaohua. As for Fang Liyin, she did not have a good life after eloping. She wrote letters on multiple asions to her elder sister seeking help. Her sister naturally lent her money behind their parents’ backs. In the fifth year of her marriage, Fang Ln was pregnant. Unfortunately, it was a stillbirth.”


    Fang Xinxin then brought an old hospital document out and ced it on the table. “These are the records from Fang Ln’s hospital visit that year.”


    She paused for a moment before continuing. “Fang Ln was heartbroken over this. At the same time, her younger sister and Yang Xueyao had a daughter. Unfortunately, the two of them barely had enough money for themselves. How could they possibly raise a child? Thus, Fang Liyin sent her daughter to her elder sister for adoption.”


    She had heard her elder brother, Fang Shaohua, mention this in the past. Her mother had indeed been pregnant that year. This was also why both of them had never suspected Fang Manxue’s background.


    Fang Xinxin’s gaze shifted onto Fang Manxue, who appeared as pale as a sheet of paper. “Fang Ln named her young sister’s daughter Fang Manxue. Ever since then, Second Sister, you became my parents’ child and led a blissful life.”


    Fang Manxue fell down on the ground. “How did you find out about this? How...”


    Fang Xinxin paid no attention to her and continued. “My parents have never lied to you about your birth. Thus, you always knew that you were not my parents’ biological daughter. In fact, you even met Fang Liyin and Yang Xueyao secretly on multiple asions. Unfortunately, my elder brother and I did not know of this. Our parents were worried that we wouldn’t treat you well if we knew about this. Thus, they kept this truth from us. In fact, among all of us, you received the best treatment in the Fang home.”


    “Enough!” Fang Manxue raised her voice. “What do you mean by the best treatment? Since Fang Ln imed she would treat me as her birth daughter, why did she still give birth to you!”


    ‘Fang Ln’ tried to stop her immediately. “Manxue, what are you talking about?”


    But Fang Manxue could no longer control herself. “Mom, Fang Xinxin clearly already knows everything. What’s the point in denying this any longer?”


    When ‘Fang Ln’ heard this, her legs weakened and she nearly fell down.


    “That’s right, at this point, what’s the use in trying to lie?” Fang Xinxin had a faint smile on her lips. “Why weren’t my parents allowed to give birth to me? Fang Shaohua is an adopted child. Fang Manxue, you also weren’t their own child. My parents loved each other dearly and they only gave birth to me as a representation of their love. Were they out of line in doing so?”


    Fang Manxue had no way of refuting this.
