Chapter 1051: Bai Family’s Illegitimate Daughter

Editor: Henyee Translations

Even Feng Jue hadn’t expected Shen Ran to be this slow—his realization could’ve circled the Earth by now.

Feng Jue blinked, feigning innocence, and casually shook Gu Yang’s hand. “Sister, I think he’s almost recovered. No need for further treatment.”

Shen Ran immediately let go of Feng Jue, looking at Gu Yang in a panic. “No, Yangyang! I’m not fully recovered yet.”

Gu Yang nodded, reassuring him. She knew depression wasn’t cured overnight, but at least Shen Ran no longer had suicidal thoughts.

Shen Qin, furious, snapped, “Brother, you! Fine, if you won’t stand by me, I will! Just don’t regret it later when you see Xiao Yang’s true colors.” She had expected Shen Ran to take her side, not be swayed by Xiao Yang the moment he woke up.

“Yang… Yueshuang, let’s go.”

Shen Qin pulled Bai Yueshuang away.

Bai Yueshuang refused to leave, her eyes slightly wet as she glanced at Gu Jin and the others before turning to Gu Yang. Taking a deep breath, she asked, “Who exactly are you? Why did you take everything that belongs to me?”

Gu Yang noticed the flicker of hatred in her eyes but didn’t respond, nor did she argue. She simply observed her. “Who are you?”

Bai Yueshuang forced a smile. “I’m Bai Yueshuang. At Cloud Rising Orphanage, I was called Gu Yang. I’m also Wuyang of the Blue Whale Team.”

Gu Yang frowned.

She had hypnotized Bai Yueshuang earlier, but now she couldn’t tell if Bai Yueshuang was under hypnosis and telling the truth, or if she had resisted it entirely.

If she dared to claim she was Wuyang, she must also be a hypnotist.

Could she be SSS-class to resist Gu Yang’s hypnosis? Or did she know another way to break free from it?

“Miss Xiao, there’s no need to hypnotize me. I’ve told you the truth,” Bai Yueshuang said, her voice sharp and her eyes brimming with tears. “You already have so much—why pretend to be me and take the people I care about?”

Gu Yang studied her closely, detecting the emotions hidden beneath her accusations.

Jealousy.

Bai Yueshuang’s eyes brimmed with hatred and envy.

“Pretend? My sister is the dignified eldest daughter of the Xiao family. Does she need to pretend to be an illegitimate daughter of the Bai family?”

Xiao Yize had been waiting for Gu Yang in the car, knowing this was an internal matter of Team Blue Whale and not his place to interfere. But after waiting for a while and not seeing her, he decided to go check.

When he reached the door, he overheard Bai Yueshuang questioning Gu Yang. He found it absurd.

Bai Yueshuang’s face paled slightly. “I’m not an illegitimate daughter. My mother was my father’s first love. They were in love but couldn’t be together for some reason. I grew up in the Bai family. If it weren’t for someone harming me, I wouldn’t have ended up in the orphanage.”

Gu Yang didn’t expect Xiao Yize to arrive and catch her off guard.

She calmly corrected Bai Yueshuang. “Children born out of wedlock are considered illegitimate by law, not by personal opinion.”

Bai Yueshuang clenched her fists, glaring coldly at Gu Yang.

She didn’t notice Shen Qin’s stunned expression.

“So what? I’ve always been recognized as the eldest daughter of the Bai family. Miss Xiao, despite your noble status, you still want to take what belongs to someone else?” Bai Yueshuang’s tone dripped with sarcasm.

Xiao Yize sneered. “What exactly belongs to you?”

“My sister, my…”

Xiao Yize cut her off coldly. “My sister and Xiao Jin are sisters with different parents. That’s a fact that can’t be changed. As for Feng Jue, he was the one who pursued my sister. If you want him to be yours, go ahead and try. My sister has plenty of choices.”

Feng Jue glanced sharply at Xiao Yize.

What made Gu Jin an unchangeable fact, someone who could just be taken away? That Xiao was truly heartless!

Feng Jue clung to Gu Yang’s arm and said playfully, “Sister, I’m yours. No one can take me away.”
