"Shocking! The 80-year-old Zhang family's grandfather caught in a passionate tryst!"
"When the police arrived, the lady's bra was still hanging on the old man's pants!"
Jiang QiQi squeezed into the crowd of spectators, watching Old Mr. Zhang being put into the police car.
Her face was rosy, her eyes sparkling.
"The old guy still has it; like an unending army! More gossip, System. Give me the next one."
"System: The next one is about you, the host."
"What?!"
"System: That black luxury car over there, do you see it? In it are your biological parents and your imposter heiress who swapped identities with you. They are here to recognize you as their kin."
Just as the System finished speaking, a black Rolls-Royce drove by and stopped nearby.
A middle-aged couple stepped out from the car; the man stood tall and had a scholarly demeanor; the woman was dignified and beautiful, obviously well-off.
As soon as they caught sight of Jiang QiQi, they quickly approached her.
"So these are my blind parents? They do look pretty good."
"It's a shame they are blinded in their hearts, utterly deceived by the fake daughter."
Hearing the voice, Jiang's parents looked around in astonishment but didn't see anyone.
Who was talking?
While feeling puzzled, the voice echoed through again.
【They come to claim me, should I go with them? Going back may result in a wretched death. Perhaps I should not go back!】
Jiang QiQi wanted to leave, but she was stopped by her older Jiang, "Please wait a moment!"
Confused, Jiang QiQi asked, "Can I help you with anything?"
At the sound of this voice, both older Jiang and Madam Jiang looked as if they had just seen a ghost.
It was exactly like that voice just now!
Could it be her inner voice?
Why could they hear her inner thoughts?
Liu Yun looked at her husband; seeing his composed face, she let out a sigh of relief.
It seemed that only she could hear it.
With tears in her eyes, Madam Jiang said, "QiQi, we are your biological parents. You've suffered a lot over these years, and we’re here to take you home."
【Take me home? You're too late. Jiang QiQi has been long gone, off to enjoy the good life.】
The real Jiang QiQi had died a couple of days ago.
She was a soul from the 21st century who only wanted to hang around the system for fun.
Both of them did not understand her cryptic words, Madam Jiang said tearfully, "Dear child, come home with Mom. I'll make it up to you."
"How will you make it up to me? You only favor Jiang Morou. Whatever she says, you believe. Didn't you say that I have a lot of black history before you came? "
"Anyways, you don't like me, I'm not going to go through this humiliation."
Hearing this, Mr. and Mrs. Jiang suddenly felt guilty.
Before they came, Morou indeed said, Jiang Seventy-seven is a mediocre actress in the entertainment circle, full of scandals. As a result, their impression of Jiang Seventy-seven wasn't good.
"Seventy-seven, don't worry, Mom and Dad will definitely trust you in the future and won't let you suffer."
"Yes, sister, Mom and Dad are really worried about you." As Jiang Morou spoke, she approached holding a delicate box, "Sister, this is a pink diamond necklace that Mom and Dad created at great expense for my birthday last year. It cost a lot of money. I'm giving it to you as a gift for our reunion, welcome home."
Seeing this, Mr. and Mrs. Jiang were somewhat comforted.
Morou usually adored this necklace. Now she's willing to give it to Seventy-seven, it seems that she really likes Seventy-seven.
"Oh, isn't this a counterfeit? The genuine one was secretly sold by you a while ago."
"Humph, giving me a counterfeit as a favor, not only appeasing our blind parents, but also subtly belittling me to let me know how much our parents favored you before, making me envious. Tsk, truly wicked."
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang's faces changed immediately.
Counterfeit?
"Morou, let mom see if this necklace has gotten a bit old, what if your sister doesn't like it?" As Mrs. Jiang spoke, she disregarded Morou's reaction, took the box, and carefully examined the necklace.
The more she looked at it, the darker her face became.
"This necklace is a fake."
Jiang Moruo suddenly looked flustered, a guilty look flashing in her eyes.
On the other hand, Jiang Qiqi's eyes lit up.
【Huh? Doesn't mom seem so oblivious after all?】
Jiang's mother said, "Although it looks exactly the same as the real one, the touch and luster are obviously different. Besides, underneath the shattered diamond, I had the designer engrave your initials, but there isn't one on this pink diamond."
Jiang's father also took a closer look and stated gravely, "This is indeed a fake."
Did Moruo actually give Qiqi a fake necklace?
And why did she sell the real one?
Jiang's parents were filled with bewilderment.
Jiang Moruo turned pale and stuttered, "Wh-what? How can it be a fake? Could it be that my friends sneakily swapped it when I brought it to school to show them? Dad, Mom, I didn't mean to give my sister a fake necklace, you have to believe me, wuu wuu."
【Tsk tsk, you're so self-righteous, so impressive, even when selling a necklace, you push the blame on friends. It's terrible having you for a friend.】
The look on Jiang's mother's face was unpleasant, squeezing out a smile at Jiang Qiqi.
"Qiqi, don't be disappointed. When we get home, mom will give you more valuable necklaces. Whatever you want then, mom will buy for you."
Jiang Qiqi's eyes lit up instantly.
【Is this really happening? Buy anything that I want? Wow, is it raining pies from the sky now?】
【However, I should really go back once. After all, as the daughter of the Jiang family, I should acknowledge my roots and heritage.】
【Then, I will save up some money, and if you still bully me, I'll run away!】
Jiang QiQi raised her face, exclaiming in surprise, "Are you really my family? Wow, I am willing to go home with you."
Jiang MoRou quickly seizes the opportunity, "That's great, sister, come home with us!"
【Xiao BiChi speaks again. For sure, the next sentence would be, as long as I am willing to correct my old bad habits, mom and dad will come to love me.】
As expected, Jiang MoRou said, "Although you had many bad habits before, mom and dad will love you as long as you are willing to change."
Jiang Dad: "......"
Jiang Mom: "......"
They, for the first time, realized that their usually kind and naive foster daughter speaks quite oddly.
Much like smelling the aroma of brewing tea before actually tasting it.
But remembering how obedient she has been all these years, they softened.
"Alright, let's go home. There is plenty of time ahead." Jiang dad said.
After they helped Jiang QiQi pack up her stuff, they were ready to leave.
Jiang QiQi directly got in the car, showing no particular sentiment towards this "home".
She was actually a 21st-century female celebrity, who traversed here after she died from cancer, and it has only been a few days since she arrived.
A system told her that the whole Jiang family were minor characters, and suffered greatly due to the female protagonist.
The unfortunate original character ended up being thrown into the sea by the male protagonist to be fodder for sharks.
She didn't want to turn into shark chow!
Thankfully, the system told her that as long as she completed the popcorn-eating tasks, she could redeem items in the system mall.
With that, she could figure out a way to save herself.
Sigh, such a pesky life.
In an attempt to show intimacy, Jiang Mo Rou took a seat in the back with Jiang Qi Qi.
"The nerve of her! She thought of another dim-witted scheme to frame me again? She stuffed the limited edition bracelet into my bag and blamed me for theft?"
"And because of the main female lead aura, my parents and brothers all believed her, thinking I'm some dumb, short-sighted thief?"
"Really disgusts me, this endless hassle."
Upfront, both Jiang Sheng and Liu Yun felt that Qi Qi was perhaps being too hostile towards Mo Rou.
The issue with the diamond necklace, maybe Mo Rou had innocent intentions well?
Just as they were thinking, Jiang Mo Rou from the back seat suddenly cried out with a panicked and anxious face, "Oh no! My limited edition bracelet has gone missing!"
