Oh no! His rural wife is sweeter than a peach!

Her words, "You've mistaken me for someone else," were like a nuclear bomb dropped on Pei Cong and his wife.

They finally found their daughter, but she wouldn't acknowledge them.

Lanling was on the verge of a complete breakdown.

"Luozhi, don't say that, Mom can't bear it..."

What could be more heartbreaking than your own daughter disowning you?

And this is my daughter, whom I had only recently lost and then found again.

Pei Cong suppressed the sadness of being denied by her, "Luozhi, we really are your biological parents. Look, you look just like us, and you have so many similar mannerisms. This is the best proof."

"Is there something you're worried about? Tell me, and we can discuss it properly, okay? Don't rush to deny us. If you really don't believe us, we can do another test..."

"Need not."

Lu Luozhi resolutely refused him.

"My surname is Lu. I was born with parents. I am not some lost daughter of yours."

Now that things have come to this, how could Pei Cong and Lan Ling possibly accept that she simply says no?

They had clearly seen hope—no, they had already found it, but this time it was no longer hope—yet they were still forced to shatter their miracle?

No, no.

They are not people who give up easily.

They've been searching for 23 years; they won't give up just because of one sentence from her.

"Sister Shuang, please put in a good word for me."

Lanling cried and begged Sheng Shuang for help.

However, Sheng Shuang also had her own difficulties.

How can she speak up for her?

On one side is her daughter-in-law, and on the other is her best friend whom she has been searching for for 23 years. Both are people she cares about. How can she speak up for her? What should she say?

Furthermore, we don't even know if Rochi is...

Just then, a thought flashed through Sheng Shuang's mind.

If Lanling and the others haven't made a mistake or said anything wrong, then Luozhi might not know that she isn't her original parents' child.

Thinking about it that way, it seems to make sense.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be so resistant, would she?

So she said, "Bluebell, don't worry. Maybe Luozhi doesn't even know that she's not her original parents' biological child. It's not that she doesn't recognize you, it's just that she doesn't know."

Her statement seemed to give Pei Cong and his wife great hope.

Yes, that must be it.

Pei Cong also felt that he needed to investigate the background of her original parents first, and then present the facts to her so that she would understand.

"Luozhi."

Lanling called her name again, her voice trembling with longing. "Don't you know anything? It's okay, I'll have your dad investigate. After the investigation, you'll..."

"No need."

Upon hearing the word "investigation," a hint of panic flashed in Lu Luozhi's eyes.

She quickly interrupted her, "You don't need to investigate me, I have nothing to do with you."

From beginning to end, Ying Yuchuan was the only one who knew the inside story.

Given the current situation, Lu Luozhi didn't seem to want to stay any longer and talk to them any more.

She needs some peace and quiet right now.

So he took it upon himself to take her hand.

"Excuse me, Uncle Pei, Luozhi is my secretary. It's time for us to go to work now."

He protected her and strode towards the door.

Upon seeing this, Pei Cong and his wife quickly gave chase.

"Luozhi."

Each cry was filled with deep sorrow.

By the time they caught up, the two had already gotten into the car that the driver had driven out and was waiting there.

Pei Cong and Lan Ling watched helplessly as the black Maybach drove away from their sight.

Lu Luozhi's attitude broke Lanling's heart.

Her reddened eyes stared blankly at the direction of the villa's main entrance, stunned and dumbfounded.

Tears streamed down my face involuntarily.

Her daughter doesn't acknowledge them.

What to do?

Their daughter, the daughter they finally found, no longer recognizes them...

A dizzying sensation washed over her, and she swayed.

"Bluebell".

"Mother--"

With a startled cry, Lanling's vision went black and she collapsed suddenly.

"Mom, don't scare me."

"Ying Huading, quickly call the driver to take Lanling to the hospital."

After a moment of panic, Lanling was rushed to the hospital...
