Chapter 81: Mistakenly Held Rich Heiress 080 (4) Second Update

“Shaohua’s arrival is just in time; we’re just about to have dinner.” An Toutou’s mother immediately stood up and smiled as she went to pull Ye Shaohua over.

Although they didn’t spend much time together, she felt an affection in her heart for this daughter whose eyes and eyebrows resembled her own and Old An’s.

Ye Shaohua’s gaze fell upon the elderly master slowly descending the stairs, the light in her eyes becoming much softer in an instant.

Old Master An was set on having Ye Shaohua return, and at this moment, he felt an unexpected closeness to her. Although he was quite stern with others in the family, he couldn’t bring himself to show any displeasure towards Ye Shaohua.

Seeing Old Master An act this way, An Toutou, standing to the side, felt somewhat hurt.

She had worked so hard since she was young, even learning calligraphy, which Grandfather favored most, but he was still cool towards her. Now, without Ye Shaohua having done anything, he was so kind to her.

An Toutou sneered with sarcasm, “The difference is clear with one’s own flesh and blood.”

Her conversation was very likeable, and the atmosphere at the dining table was great because of An Toutou. An Toutou’s mother, who was originally serving Ye Shaohua, was instantly amused by An Toutou’s charm, and it only took a few words for her to earn her mother’s affection.

This made Ye Shaohua appear very aloof, sitting alone at one corner, unnoticed.

“Tomorrow is the national Go championship finals. Mom, you didn’t come for the city-level tournament last time. This time, you have to come and cheer for me in the finals, right?” An Toutou served a bowl of soup to her mother.

“Getting to the national tournament, you’ve already outdone your mother. Not only will I come tomorrow but your father will also take time out of his schedule to be there, okay?” The more An Toutou’s mother looked at her, the more pleased she was.

An Toutou’s mother came from a family of scholars, proficient in go, calligraphy, painting, and literature.

An Toutou had also followed in her footsteps, showing great talent in these areas, especially in Go. Her coach said she could even compete internationally and bring honor to the country.

This daughter had received a lot of her attention and care. In this respect, even An Tingjun couldn’t compare.

But ironically, fate was cruel—she was not her own flesh and blood.

Thinking of this, she looked at Ye Shaohua who was indeed her own. She had asked—since childhood, Ye Shaohua hadn’t attended any training classes besides school. She was far behind the descendants of ordinary prominent families, probably never even touching a go stone.

But An Toutou’s mother was optimistic. If Ye Shaohua didn’t want to learn, she wouldn’t force her. The An Family’s wealth was more than enough for Ye Shaohua to live a good life.

After finishing her meal, Ye Shaohua habitually started to clear her own bowl away.

“Shaohua,” seeing her do this, An Toutou reminded her kindly, “when you’re at home, you don’t need to do these things. Leave these tasks to the servants.”

Even the servant couldn’t help but glance at Ye Shaohua, noting her servile nature.

If it were an ordinary person who had committed such a faux pas, they would surely be mortified.

Yet there was no change in Ye Shaohua’s expression.

“I’ve seen your kind of pampering before,” Old Master An glanced at An Toutou and spoke sternly, “when I was young, I worked in the fields. Do you look down on me too?”

“Grandfather, I didn’t…” An Toutou’s face changed.

Unfortunately, Grandfather An wasn’t interested in listening to her and turned to speak kindly to Ye Shaohua instead.

An Toutou’s mother looked at An Toutou with pity and quickly said, “Toutou, let’s go upstairs and review some Go strategies.”

An Tingjun also knew that with Ye Shaohua’s return, the family was bound to show some favoritism. He didn’t expect Grandfather’s favoritism to be so extreme. When he heard Ye Shaohua promise Grandfather that she would often visit, he was so angry that he ran upstairs.

That night, Ye Shaohua stayed at the An Family’s house and took the opportunity to examine Grandfather An’s health. He seemed well, with no signs of impending illness.

The next morning, as she came downstairs, she found even more people sitting there than the day before.

“Is this my niece?” The speaking man glanced at Ye Shaohua, his expression neither overly warm nor friendly—rather, it was somewhat cold.

Ye Shaohua squinted slightly. She had spent the night examining Grandfather An’s health, knowing he was likely to die from a hereditary heart disease in the end, and hadn’t kept up with the plot.

But from the man’s words, he must be her uncle from the scholarly Yao Family.

“Brother-in-law, you’ve been rash about this. The incident has blown up online, and it can’t be suppressed. Even the Education Bureau is sending people to investigate,” Yao Zixiao shook his head, “You’ve always been careful about your reputation. Why would you do this now?”

Ye Shaohua stood atop the stairs, noticing her uncle and others, including An Toutou, looking at her indifferently.

They had never truly cared about her, and although An Toutou was somewhat bothered by her presence, she didn’t really consider her a rival.

It was just that Ye Shaohua was too ordinary. The excellent daughter that the An Family had raised was indeed beyond comparison to the average person.

“What’s going on? Why is there such a commotion so early in the morning?” Grandfather An seemed to have heard the noise as well and came downstairs, “Shaohua, come and give your Grandfather a hand.”

This was to show support to Ye Shaohua.

An Toutou sat on the sofa, hearing this, but said nothing.

An Tingjun’s expression held a hint of disdain, “Someone couldn’t make it into university, so my dad took pity on her and pulled strings to get her into B University, just like Toutou. Unexpectedly, someone leaked the information last night, and now everyone knows about it. The Education Bureau is conducting a thorough investigation.”

Online, people were scoffing, saying that money can make the devil turn millstones and that Ye Shaohua must have taken the place of some unfortunate soul.

“Old Master An, although Toutou isn’t my own niece, I must say this,” Uncle Yao said indifferently, “I know you all are happy to have Shaohua back and want to make up for lost time, but this isn’t the way to show favoritism. From the moment she returned, everything has been about accommodating her. These past years, didn’t Toutou and Tingjun earn everything by themselves? They’re all An Family members; there’s no reason for things to change when it comes to her. As her uncle, I have to say, if she wants to attend a university, fine, but let her earn it herself. How could you use your influence for this? She’s also half a Yao Family member; if she can be corrected, you should correct her as soon as possible to prevent her from going astray. Looking back three generations in our Yao Family, there has not been a single one who had to use connections to get into university.”
