After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies

Chapter 14

An MeiYun, since she still dared to do this, must have already thought of excuses to say: "I'm sorry, mom. I was thinking of exchanging gifts, but really couldn't find anything suitable, so I thought sister Xiaogel might not mind. It was...it was my fault for taking it for granted. I'm sorry to sister Xiaogel."

In fact, when she deliberately mentioned her second elder sister, she knew Zhou Nan would definitely not agree to her giving the pendant as a gift. She also knew this pendant was said to be very meaningful to her, so she deliberately wore it to provoke the other party.

She just didn't expect that in this life, the man who didn't even dare to resist cheating in his previous life was so tough this time, and directly took action when they first met.

"Are you deaf? Brother already said my name is An ZhiXia, yet you still keep calling me sister Xiaogel, are you doing that on purpose to remind me or provoke me?" An ZhiXia had been with An MeiYun for many years in her previous life, so she naturally understood her very well.

She looked gentle and harmless on the surface, but was actually a black-hearted lotus.

"Also, I don't believe my second elder sister didn't tell you this pendant was originally mine when she gave it to you. And given the greed of my second elder sister, for her to willingly give you the pendant, she must have gotten some benefit from you too, right?"

"It's my fault, I just overlooked the name issue. Sister ZhiXia, don't hold it against me? And I really didn't know..." An MeiYun was so frightened that she had indeed used the pendant to exchange for two silver dollars from her second elder sister.

An JingZhi saw that the two daughters were unrelenting towards each other. Continuing this would lead nowhere, so he hurriedly interjected, "ZhiXia, your father just told MeiYun too, let's move past this incident, alright?"

After saying that, he hurriedly said to Zhou Nan, "ZhiXia just got back, the child is terribly weak. There are chickens, ducks and two fish caught by Jianye hanging outside the bike, see if you can prepare them, and make the child a good supplement. Also, how are the living arrangements?"

"It's all arranged. Let..." Zhou Nan saw An JingZhi gesture at her, so she quickly changed her words, "Let ZhiXia stay in brother four's room. Brother four can first squeeze in with brother three for a few days. The storage room at the back doesn't get good sunlight. We'll add a window when we have time, then brother four can move back out."

"Then let's do that first. You take ZhiXia to see her room. It's been an tiring day, let the child rest first." An JingZhi said.

"Alright, ZhiXia, mum will take you to your room first." Seeing that her arrangements were right, Zhou Nan went to hold An ZhiXia's hand. Upon touching it, the coarse feeling made her heart ache.

How much suffering must this child have endured to have hands rougher than hers at just eighteen?

Zhou Nan took An ZhiXia to An ZhiAng's room, which had already been cleaned up with the bedsheets and blankets washed, still carrying the smell of sunlight.

"My child, you've really suffered these years. This room originally belonged to your fourth brother. Stay here first. If anything is unsuitable or lacking just tell mum, it's late today, mum will take you to get some clothes and such tomorrow."

Zhou Nan originally had more to say, but seeing her indifferent expression, she was afraid saying the wrong thing would make the child antipathetic.

After all, her sons often complain that she nags too much.

It was getting late, she still had to prepare dinner, so after a few more reminders she left.

Just as she walked back to the living room, she heaved a heavy sigh.

An MeiYun was still waiting in the living room. She said, "Mum, I know I upset sister again today, but I really didn't mean to. Even if I'm not your birth daughter, you raised me for eighteen years, you should know me right?"

"MeiYun, your sister isn't holding it against you either, let's not bring up the past alright." Zhou Nan was also mentally exhausted, especially after seeing the misery of her own birth daughter, then comparing her to An MeiYun whom she had spoiled growing up, her heart was filled with complex feelings.

"But didn't we agree to let sister live with me? That way I could also get her to accept me sooner."

"MeiYun, you saw it just now, your sister has suffered too much. Right now she doesn't have good feelings towards you or even this family. Like you said, mum raised you for eighteen years, you should make concessions for ZhiXia first. We'll talk about the rest after she accepts our family."

Moreover, they didn't say ZhiXia must live with her, just that they should try to have the girls live together as much as possible. One was the birth daughter, the other was raised as a birth daughter, it'd be best if they could get along well so the parents wouldn't be caught in the middle.

But clearly, ZhiXia was too averse to MeiYun. Adding the jade pendant incident, making her live with MeiYun now would only be counterproductive.

After finishing, Zhou Nan went out. An JingZhi was in the yard taking down the chickens, ducks and fish. Hearing Zhou Nan's words made An MeiYun's heart even colder. An ZhiAng on the side saw her expression and scoffed coldly.

"An MeiYun, I warn you, you better rein in your scheming thoughts for your own good. Don't think I don't know what you're like. Don't blame me for not warning you, if you dare bully my sister, I won't let you off."

"Fourth brother, I'm the sister who grew up with you, and I don't intend to be at odds with sister ZhiXia either. Why do you guys always think so badly of me?" An MeiYun felt she was going mad. She had been so good to them these past two years, yet the moment An ZhiXia appeared, it was as if all her efforts and contributions were wasted.

"Whether you're good or bad, you know clearly in your heart. I'm not dad or mum, I won't be fooled by you."

An ZhiAng disliked An MeiYun for a reason. Although she looked very well-behaved these past two years, but two years ago An MeiYun was a devious two-faced villain.

Because of her deliberately causing trouble, An ZhiAng was punished severely many times.

He used to bear with her thinking she was his sister, but now...he would not indulge her.

He had thought she grew up and changed her ways, but it turns out these past two years of obedience was just because she found out she wasn't a blood relative, so she was trying to curry favor out of guilt.

An ZhiAng knocked on the door twice, then entered after An ZhiXia let him in.

Upon entering, he saw the bed's covers were laid open. "Are you tired and wanted to nap for a bit? Did brother disturb you?"

"No, I just wanted to lie down for a while. On the contrary, I took fourth brother's room, you don't blame me right?" Actually An ZhiXia noticed something off about her pendant just now, but didn't have the chance to check yet.

An ZhiAng smiled and said, "Silly girl, what are you saying? Don't forget, you're my sister by blood. Not just this room, even if you wanted brother's life, I'd give it to you. Just don't stand on ceremony with me, ZhiXia. No matter when, don't forget that we are blood siblings. Brother will always love you."

An ZhiXia knew he could really give his life to avenge them, because she had seen it before.

Compared to how the other An family members were either murdered or angered/worried to death, only An ZhiAng died to take revenge.
