Transmigrating as the Younger Sister of a Bigshot with Multiple Identities

Chapter 921: The Difficult Father Gu

Editor: Henyee Translations

Xiao Dingkun wasn’t the only one; Xiao Yize and Old Master Xiao were equally eager to share their good news.

It was important to share such joyous moments. Keeping the news to oneself would only make it more uncomfortable.

Old Master Xiao was the first to break the news to Old Master Qin.

“Old Qin, do you remember that girl who was exceptionally good at tea?”

“I remember her. I haven’t seen her at the teahouse for a while. Isn’t she the sister of your kid’s girlfriend? When are you planning for him to introduce her to my Xianxian?”

“In your dreams. She’s actually my granddaughter by blood.”

“Really?!!!”

Meanwhile, Xiao Yize was busy distributing money to Lin Ran.

Initially, Lin Ran was thrilled to receive the red packets from Xiao Yize and kept sending emojis to express his gratitude. However, as the number of red packets increased, Lin Ran began to feel uneasy and hesitated to accept them.

He replied uneasily: [Young Master Xiao, I’m quite nervous. What’s going on?]

Xiao Yize: [It’s okay, I’m just very happy.]

Lin Ran breathed a sigh of relief and continued to accept the red packets. He asked: [What’s the happy news? Care to share?]

Xiao Yize tossed another red packet to Lin Ran, waiting for him to ask: [I found my biological sister.]

Lin Ran: [!!!]

Lin Ran: [Congratulations!]

Xiao Yize: [You know my sister too. She’s Gu Yang.]

Lin Ran: [What?!]

Lin Ran: [You got a fairy of a sister just like that. Sure.]

Lin Ran: [I’m envious. Why isn’t she my sister?]

Lin Ran continued to offer his congratulations.

Xiao Yize: [So, are you congratulating me just with words?]

In the end, Lin Ran returned all the red packets Xiao Yize had given him and even added twice the amount.

At Gu’s Residence.

The bedroom lights were off, and the curtains were drawn back, allowing the lights of the capital to seep into the room.

Gu Zhaoming and Ruan Xueling lay on the bed, struggling to fall asleep.

They had just learned that Gu Yang was not Tong Rao’s daughter but Tong Wan’s.

Their emotions were mixed: a blend of happiness and melancholy. While they felt that Tong Wan, being gentle and generous, would be a better biological mother for Yangyang than the cold and domineering Tong Rao, they couldn’t help but feel a pang of sadness.

The Xiao family’s relationships were straightforward and free from the dirty schemes characteristic of the Tong family. Yet, the thought that the daughter they had raised would now belong to someone else left them feeling a bit mournful.

Gu Zhaoming sighed and smiled bitterly. “It was already stressful enough fighting with the Tong family over the daughter. Now, we have to contend with the Xiao family, a top-notch wealthy clan.”

He added, “And then there’s that brat Feng Jue next door, always eyeing me covetously. Why does everything have to be so difficult?”

Ruan Xueling felt a pang of frustration as well. However, she had become close friends with Tong Wan. At many social events hosted by the wealthy ladies of the capital, Tong Wan, as the mistress of the Xiao family, had been incredibly supportive.

Thanks to her friendship with Tong Wan, Ruan Xueling had quickly established herself in the high society of the capital.

Ruan Xueling was also aware that Tong Wan was actively searching for her daughter. Every time there was a lead, Tong Wan would share it with Ruan Xueling, encouraging her to find her daughter as soon as possible.

Ruan Xueling understood deeply how much Tong Wan loved the daughter she had left behind.

They were both mothers, so Ruan Xueling could empathize with Tong Wan’s feelings.

“Wanwan is different from Tong Rao. She loves Yangyang deeply and will certainly dote on her just as we do.”

Ruan Xueling wasn’t opposed to her daughter reuniting with her biological parents; she just worried about the possibility of her daughter ending up with unkind parents and suffering as a result.

“Yes, that’s true,” Gu Zhaoming agreed. While they would be happy to see their daughter cherished by more people, he still felt some reluctance. “The Xiao family will have to acknowledge Yangyang as their own, right?”

Ruan Xueling nodded, understanding Tong Wan well. “Yes.”

Tong Wan might appear gentle and approachable, but once she set her mind on something, she was steadfast.

“Yangyang has been with us for so long. It’s only fair for her to return to her biological parents. This is right for Wanwan and everyone involved,” Ruan Xueling said, her voice trembling. She had always felt a pang of sympathy for Tong Wan, and as she spoke, her emotions got the better of her.

She, too, found it difficult to part with her daughter.

“Wuwuwu… Wifey, I don’t want to give our daughter away,” Gu Zhaoming sobbed, holding Ruan Xueling close.
