Chapter 317 -317: Is She Willing to Acknowledge Our Family?

Ye Jinyu’s entire body felt as if her blood had frozen, “Impossible!”

Ye Zhengrong couldn’t be bothered with her anymore; she was indeed blind. He had already told her that Chuyi was her daughter, yet she was still going on about the impossible, stupidly obstinate.

He looked at Ye Chongzun, “Dad, the one she has been raising at her home, isn’t her biological child, so your first instinct was right—she’s truly not a member of the Ye Family. Her biological child, who looks very much like our Ye Family members, is beautiful and imposing.”

“Only, that child was swapped at birth by a maid hired by Ye Jinyu, raised under the care of a murderer, endured much hardship, and suffered frequent beating and torment from that maid.”

Ye Chongzun was both shocked and enraged; he pointed a trembling finger at Ye Jinyu, “Fool! It was bad enough you chose the wrong man, but how could you get our own Ye Family flesh and blood wrong? Can’t you even keep your own daughter safe?! Having you as a mother, the child has truly suffered terrible misfortune for eight lifetimes!”

Ye Jinyu’s mind was buzzing, and she felt like her soul had left her body, “How could this be? Chuyi is my daughter? How is this possible? Yueqin… Yueqin couldn’t possibly do such a thing, there must be some mistake, second brother, you must be mistaken…”

Ye Zhengrong needed tremendous willpower to restrain himself from splitting open her head to see if it was filled with nothing but water.

Even now, she still believed that maid instead of her own second brother!

Ye Zhengrong forcefully suppressed his rage and continued to Ye Chongzun, “Dad, don’t be angry. Although the child was taken away by a vicious maid and a murderer, luckily, she didn’t turn out twisted. I’ve checked—she has a good character, is positive and aspirational, and has a strong sense of career without being love-struck.”

Ye Chongzun clutched his painfully sharp chest and took a breath, “Good, as long as she doesn’t resemble her.”

“Dad, there’s an interesting twist. Unaware of the child’s identity, I took her in as my foster daughter, and had her marry Sheng Tingyuan in place of Shuangyin.”

Ye Chongzun was stunned, “The child who completed the marriage alliance with the Sheng Family instead of Shuangyin is Jinyu’s daughter?”

Ye Canghai was also stunned, “What a coincidence?”

Ye Zhengrong said, “Actually, it’s not that much of a coincidence. Chuyi, the child, looks quite similar to Shuangyin, and since their ages are close, Sheng Tingyuan mistook her for the wrong person.”

“It was Sheng Tingyuan who brought Chuyi before me, and I had no other choice at the time but to have Chuyi replace Shuangyin and marry over. That child has suffered and is much more sensible than Shuangyin. After the marriage, she’s been very good at making her mother-in-law happy, and Lady Sheng is very fond of her.”

“I know you’ve always been against this arrangement, Dad, which is why you feigned illness to skip the wedding. However, Dad, now it turns out we didn’t substitute Chuyi in the marriage; she is indeed a member of the Ye Family. I’ve already had her change her surname back to Ye, and by marrying her to Sheng Tingyuan, we’ve fulfilled the original agreement between our two families.”

Ye Chongzun’s eyes reddened; after a whole night, there was finally something worth being joyful about, “Good! Zhengrong, you’ve handled this matter well! If your mother knew about this, she would be able to rest easier in the netherworld. After all, the marriage agreement was originally made between her and Lady Sheng.”

Originally, Ye Zhengrong had found an imposter to replace Ye Shuangyin in the marriage, and this had angered him, so much so that he refused even to attend the wedding.

But now, the imposter turned out to be his own granddaughter, which finally dissolved the knot in his heart; he could face his wife underground with pride.

He even regretted not attending the wedding, for missing the chance to see what his granddaughter looked like in person, and for not witnessing her marriage.

“Where is the child now? Does she know about her origins?”

“She knows; I just told her tonight. I’m not sure where she is at the moment, but don’t worry, she’s doing well.”

“Is she willing to acknowledge our family?”

“Yes, she’s willing. She even called me uncle! Dad, you don’t know, but she resembles me the most. Wen Ying and Ziran even suspected for a while that she was my daughter. To prove my innocence, I had Ziran do a paternity test, and that’s how we discovered she was related to me by blood.”
