As luck would have it, both Yu Xing and Zhong Wenmei were worried about their son and daughter-in-law, so they called.
Yu Xiangqiao answered and immediately told them how her elder sister-in-law had been rescued, and at the same time, she asked them to “verify” it with her brother. Her eldest brother didn’t believe her at all.
Yu Xing and Zhong Wenmei: “……”
At first, they were a bit skeptical, but after this, they had no choice but to believe!
Recently, they had also been searching online about “golden fingers” and “possession.” Being older, they didn’t understand it, but their daughter, Yu Tingrong, was young and took the information she had found to patiently explain everything to them.
Afterwards, she even laughed and said, “Dad, Mom, have you been reading online novels too? Don’t understand them, right? Hahaha… This is all stuff we young girls read.”
Yu Xing and Zhong Wenmei: “……”
So this is something all you young people understand?
“What exactly are online novels?”
“They’re novels published online—basically the same as the novels you used to read, just posted online… They’re really popular now. If a novel doesn’t have a golden finger, it’s almost embarrassing to show it to anyone.”
Blah, blah, another round of explanations followed.
Yu Xing and Zhong Wenmei were suspicious. Could it be that “golden fingers” actually exist in this world, but Guo Jia’s father hid it to prevent chaos?
Thinking of what Ruan Yaoyao could do, and the words she had “spoken” in her heart, Zhong Wenmei frowned and coldly asked Yu Xing who his little lover was.
Yu Xing looked utterly helpless.
After returning from the hospital, the first thing Yu Xiangqiao did was feed the baby.
“How is she? Is your sister-in-law feeling better?” Ruan Yaoyao asked. She wanted to know whether her eldest brother had truly noticed anything about someone swapping with his wife.
“She’s awake, but not quite herself. She seems a bit dazed.”
“Really? Did the doctor say anything?”
Could science even explain something like this? Yu Xiangqiao said the doctor couldn’t explain either; it might have been a sudden episode, and she needed to stay for observation.
The hospital didn’t know, but anyone who had witnessed it firsthand could tell exactly what had happened.
Yu Xiangqiao grew even more convinced of Ruan Yaoyao’s abilities.
She had another worry—what exactly was going on with her dad being “cuckolded”? Could it really be that he had someone on the side?
“Mom, it’s like this,” Yu Xiangqiao hesitated, “My mom, I don’t know why, has been having conflicts with my dad recently. My elder sister-in-law suddenly ‘fell ill,’ and my brother was too busy, so he wanted me to go back and check on things.”
“Then go.”
“But Lingxuan is still nursing. If I leave for an hour or two, I don’t know if I can return in time. And since you care so much about Lingxuan, you probably don’t want to be apart. Why don’t you come with me to my parents’ place?”
Her daughter-in-law going back to her parents’ home, and she following along—what kind of thing was that? But considering her precious granddaughter, Ruan Yaoyao couldn’t leave Yu Xiangqiao to take her alone.
Moreover, something had just happened at Yu Xiangqiao’s parents’ house. No one knew the situation there now—she didn’t want her mother-in-law walking straight into danger.
Although Ruan Yaoyao didn’t fully understand her powers, she could still see the “tags” above people’s heads. If things went wrong, she could grab her granddaughter and leave in advance.
Seeing Ruan Yaoyao agree, Yu Xiangqiao relaxed.
If it weren’t for her sister-in-law’s situation being resolved, she wouldn’t have dared to bring her mother-in-law to her parents’ house.
The most important thing was, who knew what the situation at her parents’ place really was? Her parents wouldn’t feel at ease unless they got a look inside—worried there might be hidden trouble.
Xu Lianghan was also concerned, so he went along.
Since they had called ahead, apart from the eldest son and daughter-in-law at the hospital, Zhong Wenmei had notified the others to make sure they would be home.
Even with all these precautions, the youngest daughter, Yu Tingrong, still got a last-minute call just minutes before the visitors arrived and made a quick escape.
Zhong Wenmei was furious and called her immediately.
Yu Tingrong, displeased: “Mom, isn’t my sister already back? Do I still have to be home to host her? I’m busy—let’s talk when I get back.”
“Busy? How can your matters be more important than your sister’s?”
Unfortunately, before Zhong Wenmei could finish, her daughter hung up, leaving her fuming.
Yu Xing, seeing this, said: “I told you not to spoil her. You didn’t listen—look now? No one listens to you anymore.”
Already angry, Zhong Wenmei was even more so: “Spoil her? Isn’t she your own daughter? Aren’t you the one spoiling her?”
Yu Xing: “……Fine, I’ll freeze her card.”
“Is that all you can do? If you spent more time at home, would such things happen in the first place?”
Yu Xing didn’t dare say anything.
Before the issue was clarified, anything he did would be wrong.
Since they were going to her in-law’ home, Ruan Yaoyao definitely wouldn’t entrust her granddaughter to anyone else. She got out of the car holding her granddaughter tightly in her arms. No one else got a chance.
She gave Yu Xing and Zhong Wenmei a polite smile, but didn’t get too close.
Inside, they didn’t see the eldest child of the Yu family. Although Zhong Wenmei had instructed that everyone be present, she didn’t call him out immediately, afraid of scaring her precious grandson.
Not only was he absent, but the troublemaker her son had adopted also didn’t appear.
No choice—the little grandson had been “brainwashed” and particularly liked the troublemaker. To keep him in one place, the troublemaker had to come along too.
“Where’s the third one? Call him down quickly—his sister and brother-in-law are already here.”
In the blink of an eye, the third child, Yu Heng, also disappeared. Zhong Wenmei worried—did he, like the youngest daughter, suddenly run off?
These kids… always around when nothing’s happening, gone when things get serious.
Just as she spoke, she heard Yu Heng’s voice: “Mom, look! Who’s here?”
Then she saw Yu Heng leading someone inside.
Ah, wasn’t that her goddaughter, Fang Qixiu?
Zhong Wenmei smiled upon seeing her: “Xinran, you’re here? Why bring things? Just coming empty-handed is fine—you really don’t understand.”
Fang Xinran noticed the guests at the Yu household, and her gaze briefly slid over Yu Xiangqiao, stirring a trace of hidden resentment. But her face stayed smiling as she said to Zhong Wenmei: “I’m not alone, how could I come empty-handed? Even a small gift shows respect. Besides, I’m here to see my godfather and godmother, so of course I brought something…”
“Not alone? Your parents came too?”
“Yes, they’re right behind me.”
Their closeness looked like they were truly family.
Ruan Yaoyao: “……”
She had seen this girl before, but never this clearly.
Above the girl’s head, it brightly read: “Delusional Supporting Female N, trying to be a cuckoo in others’ nests.”
【Wait, that cuckoo… is it the one who takes over others’ nests?!】
Ruan Yaoyao’s eyes widened instantly. 【Whoa! This scoop is huge…】
