Because she brought Chen Ajia back with her, Su Weiyi worried that she might not feel comfortable and chose not to return to Lake Bay Villa. Instead, they went to an apartment located in the city center.

That was Sheng Jiayu’s former apartment, just right for two girls to live comfortably.

After letting Chen Ajia rest for a while, they headed back to Lake Bay Villa around dinner time.

This was Su Weiyi’s first time bringing a friend over. Having heard that this friend loved eating, Miss Tang had arranged plenty of delicious food early on.

However, from the moment they entered the neighborhood, Chen Ajia was stunned. She knew Su Weiyi’s family was wealthy, but had never imagined they were this rich. Although Chen Ajia’s family wasn’t poor, she had always thought Su Weiyi’s family was just a bit better off than hers, especially since Su Weiyi was so low-key at school.

But now...

Previously on the way, Chen Ajia had been quite groggy and they hadn’t done introductions. Now Su Weiyi spoke to her, "This is Zhou Chengchen, younger than us, just in eighth grade. Over there is her brother Zhou Qi, they’re twins."

Chen Ajia chuckled awkwardly, feeling quite bewildered. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Normally a foodie, now she couldn’t eat a thing. After finally finishing the meal and leaving the villa to return to the city apartment, she closed the door and grabbed Su Weiyi’s hand, "Xiao...Xiao Yi, are you the daughter of the Shengshi Group?"

Su Weiyi nodded, and Chen Ajia almost fainted.

"Why have I never heard this before?"

She remembered that in their class, there was a girl who disliked Su Weiyi and often picked on her, even mocked her both openly and slyly. It was rumored that the girl came from a wealthy family, which explained her prideful peacock demeanor.

Back then, Su Weiyi merely ignored the provocations with a smile, leading Chen Ajia to assume Su Weiyi couldn’t compete with her. Now she understood — it was not a matter of inability to compete, but simply a matter of disinterest, right?

Shengshi Group... Who would dare compare their wealth with the heiress of Shengshi Group?

"There’s nothing much to say."

Chen Ajia almost fainted again, but upon thinking about it, it made sense. Su Weiyi had always been low-key, and genuinely influential people often were.

"Then Sheng...Sheng Yanxiao is your brother?"

During the Qingxi trip, Chen Ajia sensed something unusual between them, which was why she cooperated with Si Nian to not be a third wheel. But given the current situation, clearly something didn’t add up.

Su Weiyi is the Sheng family’s heiress, meaning Sheng Yanxiao is her brother. But during the Qingxi trip, their interactions... did not seem like those of siblings!

Chen Ajia looked at Su Weiyi with curiosity and doubt.

Su Weiyi hadn’t planned on explaining this to anyone, but now it seemed worse not to clarify.

She pressed her lips together and spoke, "He’s my brother in name. We’re not blood-related. I’m adopted by my parents, and I don’t know who my biological parents are."

Chen Ajia blinked, "Then you... you and Sheng Yan... no, you and Young Master Sheng, you two... are genuinely together?"

Su Weiyi knew exactly what she wanted to ask. After a long silence, she nodded, "Mm."

Seeing Chen Ajia look as though she’d been struck by lightning, Su Weiyi held back, then gave a wry smile, "Is it hard to accept?"

Chen Ajia immediately waved her hands, "Not at all, just surprised, but it’s no big deal. Anyway, since you’re not blood-related, you won’t have to worry about genetic issues if you have kids in the future."
