Lingering Sorrow

That was right. 

Shen Xi was not the Su family's daughter. 

The last bit of concern she had was no more. 

Shen Xi was at first worried that Su Yi and Li Jingran, backed to the corner due to the scandal, would claim the moral high ground by exposing her to be their birth daughter. It did not bother Shen Xi at all, but she was afraid Madam Yun and Old Shen might suffer the aftereffects of it. 

Yet now, she had nothing to fear. She was not the daughter of the Su family. The bullsh*t blood ties and moral grounds were no threat to her. 

"Are…You kidding me?" Yuan Yu was dumbstruck. Who was she if she was not the Su family's daughter?

"No. You'll know soon enough. I can guarantee you'd get the shock of your life." Shen Xi chuckled, but her laughter reflected self-deprecation. "But I need you to keep it a secret for now."
