Before long, the post had over a hundred replies.
5L: LOL, what's the difference between censoring this and not censoring it? Shen Anya: You might as well just give me your ID card!
6L: Oh my god! Really?!
7L: I also want to ask, is this rumor authentic? OP, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't just say whatever you want!
11L: The illegitimate daughter of the Rocket Class? Is she the transfer student who got first place? I don't know if the rumor is true or not, but she's really amazing! First place among the transfer students!
Immediately, people started discussing it. Some guessed it was true, while many others thought it was fake and that the poster was just trying to get attention!
But soon, someone in the know commented on the post.
39L: What the original poster said is true. This afternoon, many people in our First-Year Class 8 heard it themselves. Shen Jiayan said it himself: Shen Luoluo is her biological sister, Shen Anya is just an adopted daughter who was switched at birth! How could the confirmation of her biological brother be fake!
41L: Really? Or maybe you misheard?
43L: If one person can misunderstand, then almost half the class is here, so surely we can't all misunderstand!
44L: Maybe Shen Jiayan misspoke! OP, you'd better be careful, this kind of thing isn't something to joke about!
Just as everyone was arguing, an ID with a real name entered the fray.
123L Shen Jiayan: The original poster is right. Shen Luoluo is my biological sister, born of the same parents. Shen Anya is my parents' child who was accidentally switched at birth; she is the adopted daughter of the Shen Family! I'm sorry for not being clear and causing everyone to misunderstand. The Shen Family will be holding a banquet in a few days to clarify this matter. The time and place will be announced separately later. Everyone is welcome to come and join us!
124L: Holy crap, the main character is here! Let's take a picture!
125L: Now that the main party has stepped in, those who don't believe it have nothing to say!
146L: Shen Jiayan, the youngest son of the Shen Family. If we don't believe him, who else can we trust?
152L: So Shen Luoluo really is the daughter of the Shen Family, Shen Anya is just an adopted daughter. But when we tell her that Shen Luoluo is an illegitimate child, she knows it's not true but never tells us, and always tacitly agrees!
153L: Ah! Is what the person upstairs said true? If so, then Shen Anya is disgusting, hogging someone else's title!
167L: Shen Anya, isn't that the one who was hooking up with her best friend's fiancé on the rooftop?! No wonder she was so skilled, she's a habitual thief! Stealing someone's identity and even her boyfriend! What a weirdo!
168L: Holy crap, so it was her! Honestly, my good friend and this real heiress are really unlucky to have run into someone like her!
A single reply sparked a huge discussion, and everyone began to debate it heatedly again. After replying, the person involved aloofly left the forum, leaving their achievements and fame unsung.
"Finished sending?" Shen Jingyao confirmed again.
Shen Jiayan nodded, "Don't worry, it's been sent." Of course, the formulaic reply wasn't his idea; it was written by his brother, Shen Jingyao.
After returning home, Shen Jiayan told Zhao Huizhen, Shen Ting'an, and Shen Jingyao everything he had heard at school that day. The three of them were just as shocked as he was.
Zhao Huizhen burst into tears, "How could this happen? How could things turn out like this? Why have I never heard of this before!"
She couldn't even imagine how heartbroken Luoluo must have been when she heard all this. She was clearly her biological daughter, yet she was being called an illegitimate child. Luoluo must have felt so wronged.
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault!" Zhao Huizhen sobbed uncontrollably. "It's all my fault. I was the one who kept Anya in the first place. I saw her crying so pitifully. After all, I've raised her for more than ten years. It would be a lie to say I didn't have feelings for her. I couldn't bear it, so I didn't reveal that she was my adopted daughter."
"I never expected it to turn out like this, it's all my fault!"
Shen Jiayan and Shen Jingyao were dumbfounded.
Shen Jiayan looked puzzled. "Didn't Dad say we shouldn't reveal their identities? He said that after raising them for over ten years, they're no different from biological children, so we shouldn't reveal them. We should treat them as if the Shen Family has two daughters! You were against it, saying it wasn't fair to my sister and that she would overthink things, but Dad was adamant, and you two even had a big fight about it!"
Shen Jingyao: "Jia Yan is right."
Now it was Shen Ting'an and Zhao Huizhen's turn to be dumbfounded.
Shen Ting'an: "My memories are the same as your mother's!"
"This..." Shen Jiayan felt a chill run down his spine. What was going on?! How could two different memories have appeared?
Zhao Huizhen immediately thought of the room incident. It was the same situation again; their family's memories had become different once more! But this time, Zhao Huizhen was even clearer that no matter what the memories were, just as she had said that morning, the final decision would be bad for Luoluo and good for Shen Anya!
In addition to what Jia Yan said, regarding the fact that Luoluo was said to be an illegitimate child, the closer and more intimate the relationship, the less likely they are to hear about such things! That's why they were completely unaware of this matter for so long!
Zhao Huizhen's hands and feet were ice-cold, and her whole body was chilled. This was terrifying! No! Shen Anya absolutely cannot stay any longer!
"Jingyao..."
"Mom and Dad, I'm home."
Just as Zhao Huizhen was about to say something, Shen Anya appeared at the door, interrupting her thoughts once again.
Shen Anya's cheeks were red and swollen, her clothes were dirty, and although her hair had been tidied, it was still messy. However, no one was paying attention to her or why she had gotten into this state.
Shen Ting'an: "You're back just in time. Your mother and I have something to say to you."
"Please sit down."
The five of them sat down in the living room. Shen Ting'an didn't want to disturb Shen Luoluo, who was still studying upstairs, so he deliberately kept his voice down. They could handle this themselves!
"There's something I need to tell you. Your and Luoluo's birthdays are coming up soon, and your mother and I are planning to hold another banquet under the guise of your birthdays, inviting everyone in the industry. At the banquet, we will announce to everyone that you and Luoluo were switched at birth. Luoluo is our Shen Family's biological daughter, while you are an adopted daughter." Shen Ting'an got straight to the point.
Something seemed to explode in her head, and Shen Anya felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
