Reborn as a True Heiress and Becomes a Boss

Chapter 174 Parents and Family
Xia Yun looked at her in confusion and asked, "Lili, what's wrong?"

Qiu Li smiled gently and said, "I'm fine, Mom."

Xia Yun nodded. Why did she feel that her daughter was acting strangely?

Fan Ruichen went downstairs and handed the basic training manual for supernatural abilities to Fan Meini.

Fan Meini took the book with a puzzled look, glanced at it, and asked, "What is this, brother?"

"Can't you read? This is the basic training manual for superpowers." Fan Ruichen sat down next to Yang Nianqing, took her hand, and held it in his own.

Fan Meini and the other two stared blankly for a long time before they came to their senses. They coughed to cover up their disgust. Fan Ruichen did not show any signs of disgust, which made them feel a little uncomfortable.

"No, brother, how did you get this?" Fan Meini asked excitedly as she leaned closer. If she had been given this a day ago, she would have definitely thought it was a book written by some chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) person.

Fan Ruichen smiled at her and gently raised his finger, causing the book in Fan Meini's hand to float up.

Fan Meixin and Fan Chaohua stared in disbelief. This was too amazing! The book floated to the back of Fan Meini's head and stopped. Fan Meini looked at it curiously, and the book flew away a little, then slammed hard at Fan Meini's forehead.

With a loud crack, Fan Meini cried out in pain, "Holy crap!" and squatted down, clutching her forehead.

"Because I also have superpowers, understand?" Fan Ruichen said with a wicked smile.

Fan Chaohua and Zhang Meixin's lips twitched slightly; their son's vindictive nature hadn't changed at all.

Yang Nianqing rubbed Fan Meini's forehead and said, both amused and exasperated, "Achen, what are you doing!"

“Demonstrate your superpowers to her,” Fan Ruichen said with a shrug.

Fan Meini glared at Fan Ruichen, furious but unable to speak out. Her brother was definitely retaliating!
Zhang Meixin shook her head helplessly, went upstairs, opened the safe, and took out the gifts she had prepared long ago. Unlike Fan Chaohua, who thought her son would find a boyfriend and only prepared gifts for men, she was particularly farsighted and prepared gifts for both men and women. She also prepared gifts for Fan Chaohua so that he wouldn't lose face in front of his daughter-in-law, even though she didn't know at that time whether she would have a daughter-in-law.

Her gift was a set of imperial green jadeite jewelry, while Fan Chaohua's was a set of antique diamond jewelry. Any woman, regardless of her status, would probably like beautiful jewelry.

When Zhang Meixin came downstairs, she saw Fan Meini telling Yang Nianqing about Fan Ruichen's embarrassing childhood incidents as revenge. Fan Ruichen was using his superpowers to control things and hit her randomly. Fan Meini was running left and right, loudly recounting the stories. The couple were very accepting and were no longer surprised. It was just that the siblings had changed their way of playing around. It had been a long time since they had seen Fan Ruichen be so childish. Zhang Meixin shook her head and smiled.

Zhang Meixin pulled Yang Nianqing over to sit on the sofa and said, "Don't mind those two childish kids, Qingqing. This is a gift your father and I prepared for you. See if you like it. I thought I would never have the chance to give you this gift in my life. Although we've only known each other for a day, I really think it's wonderful that you can be my daughter-in-law. Achen has already told us about your background. As for those family members, we don't need them. If you don't mind, Achen's father and I will be your biological parents from now on. We don't care about them!"

Light shone into the dark corners of her heart, as if filling in all the regrets. Yang Nianqing's eyes welled up with tears. Could she truly have the love she had never experienced before?

Zhang Meixin smoothed her hair: "You must be very scared after having a baby, right?"

Yang Nianqing's tears fell instantly. How could she not be afraid? In her past life, she had an unplanned pregnancy and struggled with whether to abort the child. But her longing for love and family gradually made her look forward to the child, as if she had a precious treasure to protect for life, carefully cherishing it. Unfortunately, she couldn't keep it. Without the child, she returned to her old life, enslaved and numb, even disfigured, without the slightest courage to resist. She knew she was cowardly. Even after discovering the truth, she was so disgusted with the world that she didn't even have the courage to take revenge on the Yang family. Even after being reborn and deciding to be with Fan Ruichen, she was afraid of misjudging him, worried that Fan Ruichen wouldn't like children. Her cowardice made it seem as if she hadn't been reborn at all—she was truly pathetic.

"Am I a coward?" Yang Nianqing asked with a slight smile.

Zhang Meixin shook her head, hugged her, and gently patted her back. She used to be a police officer and had also studied psychology. Her experience was somewhat similar to Yang Nianqing's, so she understood Yang Nianqing's feelings: "No, you were already very brave when you decided to give up those people and decide to have the baby. You are excellent. We don't need to care about what others think. What do others have to do with me? Just do what you believe is right. If you encounter any grievances in the future, we are here for you. Don't be afraid."

Yang Nianqing smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, thank you, Mom."

A smile appeared in Fan Chaohua's eyes as well. His wife had always been a gentle person. "Qingqing, you have us in the future, and you'll have a baby. Those people are blind to talent, so let's not stoop to their level."

"Okay, thank you, Dad." Yang Nianqing nodded. She had parents and family, but she didn't like people she had never met.

Fan Meini ran over and hurriedly said, "He's not crazy anymore! He's not crazy anymore! Fan Ruichen, that's enough, sister-in-law, look at my brother!"

Everything froze in mid-air. Yang Nianqing saw the apple, the orange, the ink-stained brush, the book, and the cup. Yang Nianqing glared at Fan Ruichen and said, "Achen! The cup is already going too far."

Fan Meini nodded. That's really too much. All she did was scold him a couple of times. He has no manners whatsoever as an older brother!

Fan Ruichen manipulated those objects and placed them on the table.

Fan Meini shrank back in fright.

Fan Ruichen gently rubbed her eye with his thumb to wipe away her tears. "Why are you crying?"

"It's okay, I'm happy." Yang Nianqing smiled.

Yang Nianqing also took out the gifts he had prepared for the Fan family from his spatial bracelet. He gave Zhang Meixin a top-grade blood-red spirit jade bracelet with ancient and simple patterns and talismans carved on it. It was an excellent protective magic weapon. Fan Chaohua received a string of warm and smooth wooden beads, which were also engraved with patterns and emitted a faint fragrance that refreshed the mind and cleansed the lungs.

Fan Meini's necklace is inlaid with purple jade. It is very exquisite and especially suitable for young girls to wear. It looks good with any clothes.

Upon hearing Yang Nianqing say that these items were protective magical artifacts, everyone was delighted with them. Zhang Meixin and Fan Chaohua were even a little shocked, as the value of Yang Nianqing's items was no less than, and perhaps even better than, the gifts they had prepared for Yang Nianqing. It was clear that each item had been carefully prepared.

On the other side, Fang Chengde came out of Gu Pengcheng's study and accidentally bumped into Gu Yuanhong, who was carrying something, causing the thing in Gu Yuanhong's hand to fall to the ground.

"Young Master Gu, I'm so sorry, let me help you pick them up." Cong Chengde quickly apologized and squatted down to pick them up with him.

When Fang Chengde helped him pick it up, he accidentally opened a painting. The blood-red pendant held by the person in the painting instantly caught his eye. What was this?
