Ye Qingning had a long dream, dreaming about his parents' plane crash, dreaming about his eldest brother jumping off a building, his second brother going crazy, and his younger brother being autistic. She wanted to save them, but she could only watch as tragedies happened one after another before her eyes.
She screamed and wailed.
Suddenly, all the background faded away, leaving only darkness, and a figure appeared in front of Ye Qingning.
Ye Qingning looked up at her, but couldn't see her face clearly. The blurry figure in front of her stretched out her hand. The girl was a little stunned, but she still held the hand.
The moment he held it, the black shadow instantly became distorted. Ye Qingning's pupils shrank, and he tried his best to shake off the hand, but couldn't.
"You are just a fake, I am the real eldest lady of the Ye family, everything you have should be mine!"
"No...no!" the girl shouted, and a beam of light shot down. The dazzling white light stung people unable to open their eyes.
The white light dissipated, and the girl sat on the bed, breathing heavily, with tears and lingering fear still on her fair face. She grabbed a corner of the quilt and forced herself to calm down. The familiar scene in front of her made the confusion in her eyes slowly fade away.
"It turns out... it was a dream." Ye Qingning breathed a sigh of relief and raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
His heart was still beating wildly, just because the dream was so real and unbelievable. Ye Qingning picked up the water glass on the bedside table, but his hand shook and all the water spilled. Fortunately, the cup was held in time so that no disaster would occur.
Ye Qingning looked at the water stains on the ground, feeling increasingly uneasy. She shook her head, not letting herself think too much.
After splashing cold water on his face, Ye Qingning sobered up a lot. She casually picked up a skirt and put it on. The floral long skirt was worn on her body, making her look more gentle and elegant.
She opened the door and heard a familiar voice coming from downstairs. It was the voice of her father, Ye Shaohua.
Ye Qingning felt happy and turned around to go downstairs.
Ye Shaohua went out temporarily this time. He hurriedly said something to her and went out. Ye Shaohua often travels on business, but for some reason, Ye Qingning always feels uneasy this time. When I heard my father's voice, the stone in my heart finally fell to the ground.
She was about to go downstairs when a female voice rang out. The voice sounded very young, yet strange but a little familiar... Ye Qingning thought about the people she knew. Suddenly, her pupils shrank and she staggered back a few steps. .
This voice was exactly the same as the voice of the invisible shadow in my dream just now!
Ye Qingning clutched the clothes on her chest tightly, "It's just a dream, impossible... impossible..."
Ye Qingning patted his face and forced himself to calm down. She walked downstairs calmly, the expression on her face was the same as usual.
"Dad, are you back?" Ye Qingning held her hand on the stair railing and looked towards the living room. Ye Shaohua, who was originally smiling, froze when he saw Ye Qingning coming down.
"Ning...Ning Ning."
"Dad, are there guests?" Ye Qingning glanced at the girl next to Ye Shaohua.
The girl is plainly dressed, tall and has an unruly expression. Her skin color is not cold white, but it is not dark either. It is a healthy complexion formed by years of exposure to the sun.
The muscle lines of the forearm are very smooth, with a kind of primitive strength and beauty. Her skin looked a little dull due to lack of water, but it was not difficult to tell that she was a beauty.
Ye Shaohua pursed his lips, with some unbearable eyes, "Ning Ning... this is Ye An, your mother and I... biological daughter..."
Ye Qingning's pupils shrank, his expression full of astonishment.
These words...are exactly the same as those in the dream!
She looked at the girl in plain clothes and opened her mouth, but she didn't know how to speak. But the girl walked up to her and stretched out her hand.
Ye Qingning held her hand almost subconsciously.
"You are Ye Qingning, the Ye Qingning who replaced me for 16 years of my life."
One sentence made Ye Qingning pale.
"Guest? I wonder who the guest is?"
There was a smile on the girl's lips, and her face was very similar to Ye's father. Ye Qingning finally understood the fact, "Everything in the dream is real!"
"I..." The dark shadow in the dream and the girl in front of him kept whispering over and over in Ye Qingning's mind, making Ye Qingning feel a stinging pain in his temples.
She wanted to speak, but when she saw the girl's simple and somewhat shabby clothes and felt the thick calluses on the girl's palms, she couldn't say anything.
Ye An sneered, with disdain and contempt in his eyes.
Ye Qingning didn't notice that there were too many memories in her mind that didn't belong to her and were attacking her. Her body couldn't move at all, as if it was locked by something. Even Ye Shaohua's voice sounded like it was coming from a very long time. It seemed like it was coming from afar.
"An'an! What did I tell you before?" Ye Shaohua's voice was low and stern. Ye An curled his lips, let go of Ye Qingning's hand, and stood aside.
"Ning Ning...are you okay?" The emotions in Ye Shaohua's eyes were too complicated for people to understand.
"Dad, I...am I not my parents' child?" Ye Qingning's eyes were a little confused.
Ye Shaohua looked at her, "Let's sit down and talk first. Your face doesn't look good."
The three of them were sitting in the living room. Ye Shaohua and Ye An were sitting side by side. Ye Qingning was sitting alone on the sofa on the side, with a pale face.
"Ning Ning, do you still remember when you were kidnapped and suffered a massive hemorrhage when you were a child?"
Ye Qingning nodded. That incident almost cost her half her life, and there is still a scar on her shoulder.
"That's when your mother and I discovered that you were not our biological child."
"Why didn't you tell me? It's been nine years since that incident happened, and there were so many opportunities. Why didn't you tell me...but in such an embarrassing way?"
Ye Qingning did not say the second half of the sentence.
"You were too weak at that time, and we were afraid that you wouldn't be able to bear it after experiencing such a terrible thing. So after discussing with your mother, I decided to wait until you are an adult before telling you. At the same time, I was also secretly searching for the truth of that year. And our missing daughter.”
Ye Shaohua sighed, "We actually don't have much hope in finding An An... It's true that we didn't do a good job in this matter."
"Back then, your mother had an accident and gave birth early, so we had to go to the nearest hospital temporarily. The place was chaotic at the time and there were many human traffickers. Your mother was very weak after giving birth. I took care of your mother as soon as I could. The child was handed over to the nurse, but unexpectedly the child was gone when the nurse came back to give him some water.”
"She was afraid that we would be held accountable, so she searched everywhere, and found you covered in blood in the toilet... The newborns looked similar. I didn't look carefully at the beginning, so I didn't notice anything was wrong, so..."
"So that's it..." Ye Qingning lowered his head and murmured.
"An'an has also suffered a lot outside. Your mother and I are very happy to get An'an back this time. She will come back immediately after the tour is over. I have also informed the three brothers. Dad hopes that you Get along well. Ning Ning, you are a good boy, can you do this?"
After Ye Shaohua finished speaking, he looked at Ye An next to him. "An'an, don't worry. When you return to the Ye family, no one can bully you anymore. If you have anything you want, just tell dad and he will satisfy you." Ye Shaohua patted Ye An on the shoulder.
"Anything is okay?" Ye An's eyebrows turned, with some undetectable malice.
"Yes." Ye Shaohua nodded and answered without any hesitation.
"Then..." She lengthened her tone and pointed her index finger at Ye Qingning.
"I want her to leave the Ye family!"
As soon as the words came out, the expressions of Ye Shaohua and Ye Qingning changed.
"You have enjoyed 16 years of glory and wealth, but I have been tortured in the mountains and forests. Isn't this request too much?"
Ye Qingning looked at Ye An, with undisguised malice on her face. In the dream, when she heard this sentence, she did not dare to speak, thinking that whatever she said was wrong, but she did not expect that Ye Shaohua thought that he was unwilling to give up his glory and wealth, and was very disappointed in her.
No matter whether the things in the dream would come true or not, at least at this moment, she wanted to make a change!
She clenched her fists, and after noticing Ye Shaohua's gaze, she spoke before Ye Shaohua. She looked at Ye An with firm eyes.
"Okay! I'm leaving the Ye family."
Now, the shocked people became Ye An and Ye Shaohua.
