Chapter 360
Master Guan became furious at the news.
“What did you say?You say that again!”
Guan Xuefei stalked her neck and got angry too, “I said, I won’t!”
“You!”
He covered his chest, his face red with anger, and Guan Xue Fei saw the situation and was so nervous that he even gave him medicine.
“Grandpa, how are you?Quick, take your medicine!”
The old man swatted her away with a slap and said angrily, “You’re so disobedient, why do you still care about my life and death?If I die, won’t it weigh your heart?No one will ever push you or control you again?”
Guan Xue Fei’s heart was sore, but looking at his face, she didn’t dare to argue harder.
She just said sadly, “Grandfather, I don’t like Gu Yixuan, much less want to marry him, I’m just saying what’s in my heart, is the happiness of your children and grandchildren still no match for those flashy rights and interests in your heart?”
Kwan stared at her angrily, not speaking.
Guan Xue Fei saw the situation and knew that he would not listen to him, and his heart gradually sank.
The good news is that the old man was just a little short of breath and couldn’t breathe for a while, but he’s much better after slowing down.
Guan Xuefei stood up, wiped her tears, and looked at him calmly.
“Grandpa, you actually know that Clara isn’t the same child that mum lost back then, right?”
Master Kwan shuddered a little.
The face changed slightly.
He glared angrily at Guan Xuefei and said in a deep voice, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
Guan Xuefei laughed to herself.
“You don’t have to play dumb, not only do you know about this, everyone in the family knows about it, but you still acted with everyone and let her into the Kwan family because you thought she was the type of person who was ambitious and could be manipulated.
Like you, she is someone who can do anything for the sake of profit, and if she becomes your granddaughter, she will be tied to the Guan family in the same profit boat, and then she will do her best to cage the Gu family even for herself.
Moreover, she has a deep feud with Jenny, so in the future, if the Guan and Lu families really stand against each other, she will have to rely on the Guan family, and the Guan family can just as well rely on her status in the Gu family, so the two sides are considered to be complementary.”
She pursed her lips and paused for two seconds before continuing, “But Grandpa, what if I told you that that child of Mom’s really didn’t die back then and has been living with us ever since?Would you still make the decisions you are making now?”
Master Guan shook hard!
He didn’t dare to look at Guan Xuefei incredulously, his pale lips trembled slightly, and only after a long while did he quiver, “What did you, what did you just say?”
Guan Xuefei looked at him calmly and repeated word for word, “I said, she’s still alive, and she’s with us.”
Master Guan was completely startled.
A pair of old eyes were filled with shock.
Guan Xuefei continued, “I saw her with my own eyes, on her back, she had that butterfly-shaped birthmark, my mother told me when she was alive that this birthmark was very special, that there was no other one in the world, and at that time, they even joked that she was reincarnated as the Butterfly Fairy for that reason, so when I saw it, I knew that that person was her.”
She squatted down in front of Master Guan and held his hand, sincerely saying, “Grandfather, we actually found her a long time ago, she was always there, but we were blind and never recognized her and pushed her further and further away, which led to today’s situation.”
Master Guan finally recovered from his shock a little, took a backhand grip on her hand and said urgently, “Where did you see her?”
Guan Xuefei replied, “On the day of your birthday banquet, I took her to change her clothes and saw the birthmark on her back.”
Master Guan was shaken hard again!
The day of the birthday party…a change of clothes?
That’s not….
He dilated his pupils sharply and stared ahead incredulously.
Guan Xuefei smiled sadly, “Surprised aren’t you?It didn’t really occur to me, maybe it’s just coincidence, and God willing, there’s nothing anyone can do about it.
No one would have guessed that what we had been looking for so long and so hard for was actually right in front of us, and everyone out there thought that I would be afraid that she would come back and take my place, take what I had now.
There can only be what I know in my own mind, and I’m not afraid at all, because I never felt that she was a competitor for me.
My mother saved me, took me out of the orphanage, and has treated me like a child all these years, so it’s impossible for me to hate her child, so I’m actually happy to have found her.
But I am hesitant to tell you or not.We look gorgeous on the outside, but I know that this house is like a golden cage, and everyone in it is a bird in your captivity, Grandpa.
Just like a pawn, at your mercy, an insignificant screw in the entire family machine of the Guan family, although I am grateful to you for raising me, teaching me, giving me a good education and social status, it does not mean that I am willing to be the captive bird, like a marionette, living under the control of others for the rest of my life.
So I guess she didn’t want to, which is why I hesitated, but for now, I’m going to choose to tell you the truth honestly, because I realized that she’s not like me.
It’s fair to say that she’s different from all of us, she has her own opinions, she’s capable, and she has someone who loves her who protects her and respects her, she’s not going to be your captive bird, and she’s not going to be led by family interests, and frankly, I’m really jealous, but unfortunately, I’m not as blessed as she is.
In that case, it would be better for me to fulfill her, and consider it as a way for me to repay my mother’s kindness for raising me for so many years, even if she knows it in the spring, she should be comforted and happy.”
Guan Xuefei pursed her lips and added, “As for the Gu family, I will not marry, if you must force me, please kick me out of the house, and I will accept all your punishments.”
That’s all there is to it.
She struggled a little to free her hand from the old man’s, then she got up and walked out without looking back.
The empty room was suddenly filled with only one person, Master Guan.
He sat in his rocking chair and stared blankly ahead, as if he hadn’t recovered from the tremendous shock.
It wasn’t until after a long time had passed that the old face slowly cracked into an expression that looked like a smile, a smile that looked like a cry.
The corners of his lips slowly followed suit, yet his eyes were streaming hot tears.
He raised his hands to cover his face, crying out in pain for the first time in his life.
……..
The next day, Jenny suddenly received a phone call.
The old man Guan said it was because of the previous night’s events, and after thinking deeply about it afterwards, he felt sorry for Ann and for her, so he invited her to come to the Guan family for a meal, and incidentally let the old man personally apologize to her.
Jenny was very surprised and even found it strange.
Chapter 361
After all, the day before yesterday, the old man had acted like he was protecting his shortcomings and was very unhappy about her forcing Clara to apologize.
It’s like a different person today.
Jenny thought there was something strange about this and declined without even thinking about it.
But on this side, just after rebuffing the old man, on the other side, Xu Hui called her again.
She didn’t know Xu Hui well, but because she was closer to Guan Ji Ming and Xu Hui was Guan Ji Ming’s wife, her relationship would naturally be slightly better.
Xu Hui called her to ask her to go to the spa with her.
This time Jenny was even more surprised.
After asking, only to find out the original she opened a chain of shops, the shop recently introduced a new massage, it is said to be very comfortable after pressing, for women’s maintenance effect is particularly good.
But not to invite her sooner or later, but at this juncture.
Jenny instantly felt overwhelmed.
It must be because Master Guan invited her to the Guan family on the front foot and she didn’t say yes, and only then did Master Guan ask Xu Hui to invite her on the back foot.
Jenny cried and laughed, but didn’t think much of the Guan family’s big battle, though he felt confused.
Since they were all so enthusiastic, it was not a good idea to push and push again, lest they call again later, so they agreed.
That afternoon, the two went inside a high-class beauty club, changed clothes, and came in two massage technicians.
They were both wearing overalls and masks, and Jenny noticed that one of them had a familiar shape, but since he couldn’t see with the mask on, he wasn’t sure who it was.
But she didn’t think much of it, after all, she couldn’t know anyone here.
The masseuse’s craft really is very good, Jenny since that night jumped into the water, these two days the body always feel some chills, the heart knows that there is a possibility of cold, at home a few anti-cold medicine, at this time some faint valley yawn sleep.
When pressed by such a good maneuver, the whole sleepiness was deeper.
So it didn’t take long to actually fall asleep.
She did sleep carelessly, but had no idea how shocked the person who was massaging her at the moment really was.
A spa session took over an hour.
Jenny was woken up by Xu Hui.
She hadn’t expected to be comfortable enough to fall asleep, and smiled a little embarrassed.
I thought the service was pretty good and the technique was great, so I got a membership card and made an appointment to come back next time before leaving satisfied.
She didn’t notice, however, that as soon as she left on her front feet, the technician who had given her the massage immediately changed his clothes, drove off, and left the other way.
At this time, the Guan family’s old house.
Master Guan sat in his room, looking at the gray-haired old woman in front of him.
“Are you sure you saw the birthmark on her back, really?”
The old woman’s name was Mrs. Xiang, an old maid who used to be with Guan Jiwan, and had brought that child for a while when she was young, so she knew the characteristics of the child very well.
She nodded, “Yes, I’m sure.”
“What about the hair?”
“Got it too.”
Sister-in-law Xiang said, and took a small transparent bag out of her pocket, only to see that what was inside was exactly a few hairs.
Master Guan sank and said in a cold voice, “Take it for a DNA test, along with Clara’s.”
Mrs. Xiang nodded her head and thought about it, but she was a little confused.
“We also tested Clara’s DNA in the first place, or I personally supervised it, so by all rights there shouldn’t be a problem, so how could it be fake?”
Master Kwan snickered.
“Maybe it was moved from the middle, or maybe there’s another secret?Anyway, test them all again, and this time, make sure you’re watching every step of the way, and never give anyone a chance to interfere and make sure the results are true, understand?”
Mrs. Xiang nodded her head evenly, “Understood.”
Master Guan waved his hand and Mrs. Xiang was about to leave.
However, at this moment, a maid’s voice was suddenly heard from outside.
“Second Miss, why are you standing here?Why don’t you go in?”
They were both startled, looked at each other, and then looked slightly different.
Master Guan gave a wink to Mrs. Xiang before saying in a deep voice, “Is it Clara who’s here?”
The door to the room was pushed open from the outside and Kyoia walked in.
I saw a box of tea in her hand and smiled, “Grandpa, with the door closed in broad daylight, I thought you weren’t here, but you were in your room!”
Kwan looked deeply at her.
Clara looked harmless, and looked at Xiang’s wife beside her again, seeing that both of them looked a bit strange, and asked curiously, “Did I say something wrong?”
Master Guan said in a deep voice, “Did you hear anything just now outside?”
“I don’t hear anything, are you guys talking about something I can’t hear?”
Looking at her dazed and innocent appearance, Master Guan frowned deeply for a moment, finally believing her.
“Okay, nothing much, are you coming over for something?”
“Oh, last time you said you wanted to drink Yunshan Mao-tip, and it just so happened that a friend gave me some this morning, and they’re all top-notch, so I’m hurrying to bring them over to you!”
Kwan looked at the tea in her hand and nodded, “You have a heart.”
Clara smiled and said, “Since you and Mrs. Xiang have business to talk about, I’ll leave first.”
“Well.”
……..
Clara left the room, her face instantly sinking.
She didn’t know if she didn’t know that Jenny was the real child of Guan Jiwan.
This secret had been told to her by Kelly Wang long ago.
At first, Jenny was determined to get back the relic her mother had left her, but little did she know that the seemingly ordinary necklace was actually a token.
At that time, Kelly Wang accidentally learned the secret and stole the necklace, replacing the blue gemstone with a red one.
And, secretly, she arranged for her to take over the role in place of Jenny.
But the secret had been kept well hidden, and she thought it would remain undiscovered for the rest of her life.
I didn’t think it would be known so soon!
Clara sneered.
Jenny, Jenny, why do you think you’re so annoying?
I hadn’t really intended to kill you, after all, and she didn’t want to get herself into trouble.
But no matter where you are, you’re always in her way, and that’s true in Visterdem, and it’s still true in Kyoto.
Why should you be born to be a high and mighty lady while she has to be the dirt beneath someone’s feet?
Heh.Verified, right?
Is there no point in finding out if someone is dead?
If that’s the case, then you’re not going to live!
So as not to be obnoxious to look at and block people’s progress.
Clara quirked a wicked smile and pulled out her mobile phone, making a call out.
“Our secret has been discovered, and now I need to talk to you about what kind of death to give her!”
Chapter 362
The next day, Jenny returned to the set.
Recently she had taken on a costume drama, a rare martial arts theme nowadays, not a big hit, but Jenny Jing liked it after reading the script, so even though it was only a third female role, she still agreed to do it.
On this day, it just so happened that a martial arts scene between her and the second man was to be filmed.
Instead of performing indoors and then pinging the backgrounds later, the director chose to shoot at real locations in order to make the scenes realistic.
The location chosen by the crew was a rather famous mountain on the outskirts of Kyoto.
The mountain is famous for having a nationally known Taoist temple on it, and the scenery is beautiful and lush, and it happened to be a warm sunny day, so standing on it was just refreshing.
The crew cleared the set and set up the camera before filming, and Jenny got dressed and walked out to start preparing for the hanging wiya.
For this scene, the location was chosen to be on the edge of a cliff.
Jenny plays the female San, who is ostensibly a geisha who sells her wares at a fashionable place, but is actually a killer in a neighboring country.
For the survival of his homeland, he assassinated the crown prince of the dynasty.
The second male found out who she was and kept hunting her down to the edge of the cliff.
In the end, she is seriously injured and falls down the cliff to her death, but she is unable to defeat him and a group of soldiers.
The character’s characterization is rather aloof, which fits Jenny’s character perfectly.
After getting dressed and posed for Weah, the director shouted “Action!”
Jenny Jing’s gaze instantly turned cold.
She covered her wounded chest, a trace of blood still on her lips, and with a knife in one hand, she retreated to the edge of the cliff.
Lin Zongye, who played the second male role, said in a deep voice, “You have no way out, just tie your hands!”
Jenny Jing slowly lifted the corner of his lips.
That smile, cold and resolute.
“No, I have a way out!”
She said, releasing the hand that covered her chest and holding the knife upright by the handle.
The officers and soldiers chasing after him turned pale.
Lin Zong Yu’s face was as pale as water and he said in a deep voice, “You’re working for your mother country and seeking nothing more than a chance to be rich and prosperous, things have come to a dead end, I’ve already pleaded with Lord Shang to spare your life, so why do you have to be so stubborn?”
Jenny sneered.
There was no sign of emotion in the cold and delicate face.
“If you do your duty for your country, why should you both die!”
After saying that, holding the knife, he rushed straight towards Lin Zongye’s direction.
As soon as Weah moved, the fight began.
Jenny had already set up a good move with Lin Zongshi ahead of time under the guidance of her martial arts teacher, so they fought beautifully against each other.
It ends with Lin Zongye slapping her on the left shoulder, and Jenny spitting out a mouthful of blood and falling down the cliff.
Of course, not actually falling down the cliff, just watching her disappear down the cliff from the camera, Weah will actually be hanging on until the end of this split shot and then pulling her back up.
But at that moment, something changed!
The original Jenny had been ready to follow his palm breeze and fall down the cliff.
But as soon as my foot left the ground, I heard a clattering sound.
Before she could react, she only felt her centre of gravity shift, and the left VIA rope had snapped in response!
Jenny turned pale with fright.
However, that wasn’t the worst of it, the scary part was that, looking up, the right side of the rope was also only holding on by a single tendon, which was also apparently about to break.
She reached for the rope and grabbed it, and just then there was a click, and sure enough, the right rope snapped too.
Jenny could only grasp the rope with two strong hands, like a kite that was hanging in the air.
That’s when the people up there noticed something was wrong.
“What’s going on?Why hasn’t anyone been put up yet?”
The props crew turned pale and rushed over, saying urgently, “Director, it’s bad, there’s a problem with the machine and Weah can’t put it up.”
The director’s face changed dramatically.
“What?”
He scrambled to his feet and hurried over to Weah’s machine, “What’s going on?What could go wrong?”
The colleague in charge of Weah said, “I don’t know, it was fine this morning, but now it’s stuck.”
The director’s name was Zhou Article, and he cast Jenny in the role because she had the right temperament for the role, and also because Lu Yanzhi highly recommended her.
Thus, Jenny Jing’s identity and background was known to him.
At this point, his heart sank as he watched the machine just not budge, no matter how much the prop team tried to manipulate it.
The crew has never had this problem in all the time they’ve been filming, so why is it suddenly broken today?
Zhou Wen didn’t have time to think deeply, he arrived at the edge of the cliff, looked down and shouted, “Jenny, how are you?”
At this point, Jenny could only rely on the strength of his arms to grip the rope, his body already overwhelmed.
But she gritted her teeth and said, “I’m okay, but the rope around my waist broke and now I have to hold on by hand, what’s going on up there?”
As soon as the director heard the rope break, his face changed dramatically and his heart sank even more.
“It’s okay, there’s something wrong with the machine, just hang in there, I’ll send someone down right away to help you.”
Afterwards, the director hurried off to get a spare lifeline.
At this point, Jenny was already a strong crossbow.
Vaiya’s rope was smooth wire, her entire body weight sustained only by her hands as the force strangled the wire into her flesh, and the excruciating pain from her palms made her almost want to give up.
But she gritted her teeth and held on to the two wires even though blood was running down her palms and both arms were shaking slightly from the pain.
For, beneath her, was a cliff of ten thousand feet.
If she let go and fell from here, she could guarantee that she would be in pieces, not a scrap left.
After a long time, a lifeline was finally let down.
But Jenny was running out of strength to grab it, and about a few dozen seconds later, a crew climbed down the lifeline.
“Jenny, hold on, I’ll save you right now.”
He said, and hung another rope, around Jenny’s waist.
Just then, there was a rumbling in the sky at first, and thunder rolled in.
But within a few moments, the rain of beans came down without life.
Jenny’s entire body was so weak that she trembled her arms, allowing the other man to hang the rope on top of her wiener set, then let go of the wire and hung with him the whole time.
They yelled at her through the rain curtain, “Hang on, we’ll be right up.”
For some reason, she couldn’t quite see the other woman’s face.
I could only vaguely feel his mouth opening and closing, so I nodded my head in coordination.
The staff is experienced in mountain climbing.
About two minutes later, it took her back to the ground.
