306 Restored Identity
At the Ji residence, Old Master Ji saw that it was already past eight in the evening and wanted to call his daughter, but Fang Xiaonuan took away his phone.
Fang Xiaonuan said, “Dad, give them some time. You’re too anxious to call them now.”
The others also supported what Fang Xiaonuan said and did not allow Old Master Ji to make the call.
Old Master Ji mumbled, “I just miss her…”
Fang Xiaonuan replied, “Even so, you have to bear with it.”
At around nine o’clock, Liu Siyu called home. She knew that her old father would not be able to sleep in peace if he did not hear from her.
The two of them talked for a while before hanging up. However, in the end, Old Master Ji’s phone was still confiscated by Ji Lingchen because Fang Xiaonuan had told on him. She told her husband that Old Master Ji had been playing with his phone in the middle of the night.
Old Master Ji cursed and swore at his second son. He was already thinking about how to send him back to Spirit Creek Villa.
In the Liu family’s home, Liu Siyu chatted with her parents until late at night. She could not tell her parents about restoring her identity, so she did not say anything about that.
“When will you restore your identity?” Mrs. Liu asked directly.
“Mom, are you angry?” she asked.
Mrs. Liu shook her head. She had already thought it through and would not burden her daughter.
In the end, Liu Siyu decided to change her identity tomorrow.
Mrs. Liu looked at her daughter. “This must be fate, Xiaoyu. In my heart, you will always be my Siyu. If you can’t get used to living with the Ji family, you can come back anytime.”
Liu Siyu nodded. From now on, she had two families; two families who loved her.
The next day, Ji Lingchen personally came to pick Liu Siyu up. Liu Siyan took out his household register. He looked at Liu Siyu’s name and was stunned for a long time.
After Ji Lingchen left with Liu Siyu, the Liu couple cried for a long time.
She changed her name back to Ji Xiaoyu. She started crying as soon as she got into the car. She had been Liu Siyu for fifteen years, and now she had changed her identity so easily.
When the car stopped, Ji Xiaoyu saw that they had returned to the Liu residence. She turned to look at Ji Lingchen. “Brother?”
“There’s no rush to celebrate at home. I think you’d rather come back here now.”
Ji Xiaoyu cried again.
“Hurry up and go,” Ji Lingchen said.
“What about Dad and our big brother?” Ji Xiaoyu asked worriedly.
Ji Lingchen said, “I’ve been able to help you solve everything since you were young. I can still do it now. Just do what you want to do. Leave the rest to me.”
Ji Xiaoyu cried as she got out of the car. After watching Ji Lingchen leave, she took out her keys and entered the house, but there was no one at home.
After a while, they came back. It turned out that they had gone to cancel their daughter’s accounts. They saw the girl on the sofa as soon as they entered the door.
“Xiaoyu?”
“Mom!” Ji Xiaoyu cried as she ran to her parents and brother.
“Why did you come back?”
“My brother sent me back here. He knows that I want to be with you guys more right now,” Ji Xiaoyu replied.
…
After Ji Lingchen returned home and saw the lively setup in the house, he immediately asked the servants to clean it up.
Old Master Ji saw that his second son was alone and asked in dissatisfaction, “Where’s your sister?”
“I’ve sent her back to the Liu family’s house.”
Old Master Ji raised his walking stick to hit his son.
“Do you want her to cry while celebrating with us, or do you want her to go back to the Liu family happily?”
Old Master Ji fell silent.
The Ji family’s celebrations had yet to begin, but it was already over. Then, he called Ji Xiaoyu. “Xiaoyu, have you eaten yet?”
“Dad, I was just about to eat. What about you?”
Old Master Ji said, “I’ve finished eating. I’m fine. I just wanted to tell you to have fun at the Liu family’s house and spend more time with your parents. You don’t have to rush back. The Ji family’s door will always be open for you.”
Ji Xiaoyu was silent for a moment, then agreed, “I know, Dad.”
She finally smiled, relieved.
The Ji family and the Liu family had come to an agreement that Ji Xiaoyu could live wherever she wanted.
The only people who disagreed with this arrangement were the grandparents from the Liu family. When they were in the hospital for treatment, they found out that their granddaughter had gone to the Ji family’s house. They were so angry that they returned to their hometown overnight. For the past few days, the Liu family had been trying to persuade the two elders to come back.
Ji Xiaoyu called her grandparents. “Grandpa, Grandma, come back to Jing City. No matter where I go, I’ll always be your granddaughter!”
Her grandma said, “Go and tell the Ji family that they were mistaken. You look just like me when I was young. Why else would you be so beautiful? You’re my granddaughter!”
“Xiaoyu,” her grandpa said, “Listen to me. Don’t acknowledge the Ji family!”
Ji Xiaoyu replied weakly, “But I’ve already changed my name back to…”
Due to this, they got angry enough to come back to Jing City.
“Xiaoyu,” her grandma said. “If you really want to acknowledge the Ji family, that’s fine too. But your grandfather and I must meet the Ji family and see what kind of family dares to steal our granddaughter!”
