Chapter 10
The words from Nan Yan stunned both individuals present in the room.
An Xiran had never expected Nan Yan, who had always appeared weak and submissive, constantly following behind An Muyao and obeying her every command, to speak such words.
An Muyao, even more so, never expected Nan Yan to dare to speak to her like this. Her face couldn’t hide her anger anymore.
Nan Yan walked slowly towards her, her slender figure standing tall like a pine tree, exuding an inexplicable aura.
Her cool gaze locked onto An Muyao’s eyes as she sneered, “You’re nothing but a fake heiress who took advantage of someone else’s nest. What gives you the right to think that you deserve all the privileges you enjoy?”
“You’ve seized the position that originally belonged to me, and now you want to control my life. Who do you think you are?”
An Muyao’s face turned pale in an instant. “Yanyan, that’s not what I meant…”
She was filled with intense hatred, but she couldn’t lose her composure in front of An Xiran.
“Then what do you mean?” Nan Yan raised an eyebrow, her smile seemingly mocking. “Do you think I should sacrifice the rest of my life for the An family just because I ate and drank for free for two years?”
An Muyao reluctantly shook her head, going against her own feelings. “No…”
How did this little vixen suddenly become so sharp-tongued?
An Muyao clenched her fists and lowered her head, feeling guilty. “I’m sorry, I didn’t know CEO Zhang’s true nature. If I had known, I would never have agreed!”
“Just now, I heard you say I have mental problems?” Nan Yan turned her head to look at An Xiran. “Fourth Brother, do I look like a crazy person?”
“Of course not!” An Xiran’s expression became complicated. After hearing her words, he had contemplated a lot.
Ultimately, it was their An family who owed her, not the other way around.
An Xiran’s gaze deepened, and he said earnestly, “Yanyan, don’t worry. As long as you don’t like it, no one will force you to marry.”
“Yes.” Nan Yan responded lightly, her gaze chilling as she glanced at An Muyao before returning to her room.
An Xiran couldn’t be bothered to deal with An Muyao any longer. After leaving the remark, “Don’t disturb Yanyan unless necessary,” he turned and walked away.
An Muyao covered her slightly aching abdomen and glared at Nan Yan’s door for a while before returning to her room in a disheveled state.
Then she dialed a call to her mother, Lu Lehua, with a tearful voice. “Mom, today Yanyan said that I took over her identity and seized her position…”
Lu Lehua hurriedly comforted her, “Yaoyao, don’t listen to her nonsense. Even if she is our biological daughter, you are also our daughter. You have lived in the An family for eighteen years, you’re even more legitimate than her.”
“How dare she speak to you like that? When I go back, I will definitely teach her a lesson!”
Her tone became stern as she said the last sentence, filled with anger.
An Muyao quickly said, “Mom, don’t blame Yanyan. It’s not her fault. What she said is true. I felt a bit uncomfortable after hearing her words, so I couldn’t help but call you.”
“She blames me for taking her place, resenting and hating me. It’s normal. It’s just that I have a fragile heart, thinking that I’ve been trying my best to get along with her, but she doesn���t appreciate it…”
An Muyao’s tone became gloomy.
“Yaoyao,” Lu Lehua interrupted her, “don’t overthink it. From now on, spend less time caring about her, and you don’t need to feel guilty towards her.”
“Being switched at birth was not your fault. It was our negligence as parents. Bringing her back and raising her by our side is already the utmost kindness. Don’t let her affect your emotions.”
When Lu Lehua mentioned her biological daughter, she showed no positive emotions. Her words even carried a deep sense of disgust.
The truth was, in the two years since Nan Yan had been brought back, she had done too many things that they couldn’t stand.
She was full of bad habits and didn’t learn to be good. The disgraceful things she has done have brought shame upon them.
Adding to that, having An Muyao, the carefully cultivated talented girl, by her side as a close confidant, the contrast is striking.
Furthermore, even if Nan Yan is her biological daughter, An Muyao is the one she has doted on since childhood, the precious one who has been with her every day of her life.
She absolutely will not allow Nan Yan to bully An Muyao!
Through the phone, An Muyao suddenly burst into tears. “Mom, I wish I were your biological daughter…���
“Silly child, you are!” Lu Lehua’s heart clenched upon hearing her cry. “No matter what others say, you were raised by me since childhood. You are my real daughter!”
“Yaoyao, stop crying. Mom has finished work and will return to Jin City soon. I’ve brought you a gift. Wait for Mom to come home, okay?”
“Okay!” An Mu Yao sweetly replied.
“Good girl~”
The mother and daughter exchanged a few more pleasantries before hanging up the phone.
An Muyao wiped away the smile on her face, her expression turning gloomy.
That wretched Nan Yan, she absolutely cannot let her stay! The attitude of Fourth Brother made her feel a sense of crisis, and Nan Yan’s changes posed a great threat to her.
She couldn’t let Nan Yan affect her position in the An family, let alone let her take away everything that belongs to her.
In that case, there was only…

After tidying up the room, Nan Yan was covered in sweat. The salty sweat flowed into her wounds, causing a stinging and painful sensation. It was extremely uncomfortable, so she decided to take a shower, grabbing a new dress on her way.
After washing up, she hand-washed the clothes she had taken off and hung them on the clothes rack before returning to her bedroom and opening her laptop.
Since her rebirth, she hadn’t paid attention to the date. Now, her gaze fell on the time displayed in the bottom right corner of the computer screen.
She realized that it had already been over a month since her original self’s death!
Nan Yan bit her lip and opened a website, entering her account and password.
However, a dialog box popped up on the page, indicating that her account had been canceled.
Curious about what else was blocked, Nan Yan instinctively opened several other websites and tried to log in.
But as expected, she received notifications that all her accounts had been canceled.
Moreover, all information about her had been completely erased.
She no longer existed there…
He was indeed ruthless, completely eradicating the roots!
Nan Yan closed the laptop and pressed her hand against her temples, forcing herself to calm down.
Once her emotions settled, she opened the laptop again.
This time, she didn’t access any internal websites but visited an official website.
At the top of the website, there was a highlighted and red-tagged post.
[Celebration! The great Director Xi Shijin has successfully overcome difficulties and developed the T-2 reagent, marking a significant leap forward in the progress of the biological modification project!]
She clicked on it without hesitation.
Nan Yan looked at the photo of Director Xi Shijin wearing a medal, his face filled with pride and dignity, placed at the beginning of the post.
The hatred in her eyes could not be suppressed.
Xi Shijin!!!
She wondered if he worried about being killed by the undead when he woke up in the middle of the night.
