An Toutou had already taken the passenger seat and, upon hearing Pei Xu, she looked in the direction of his gaze and immediately saw Ye Shaohua.
In fact, An Toutou had already seen Ye Shaohua at the previous competition and naturally recognized her.
“She’s from Third Middle School, so what?” An Toutou was somewhat on guard inside, but she still spoke in a mild manner. When she mentioned “Third Middle School,” her tone was very faint.
Third Middle is the most awkward school in the area. Families with even a slight bit of assets would not send their children to this school.
The academically strong would stay at First Middle School, while those who were a bit weaker would go straight to Noble School. Both types of schools boasted the best teaching staff in Imperial City.
Third Middle was mostly populated by children of migrant workers and the salaried class, and their grades were not particularly impressive. Students like Xu Chenghao with good grades were anomalies.
“Don’t you think she looks a lot like Aunt and Uncle?” Hearing that she was from Third Middle, Pei Xu withdrew his gaze but still made a mention.
The An Family had been wealthy for several generations, so it seemed unlikely for there to be a relative at Third Middle.
When An Toutou heard this, she laughed, “There are many people in the world who look alike.”
Neither of them paid much attention to this episode.
Meanwhile, Ye Shaohua had also returned home. They lived in an old community. Ye Guoliang was an associate doctor, and Lin Meizhi was a nurse. The couple had saved some money over the past twenty years, but it was still hard to afford a house in that area.
This old house was purchased years ago, and they definitely could not afford it now if they were to buy.
A murder had occurred downstairs before, which also drove down the property prices significantly in the area. Ye Guoliang was planning to move, but it was difficult to sell the house. There were not many people willing to buy second-hand homes these days, and the only option was to rent it out.
This, however, meant they didn’t have much liquidity on hand.
When Ye Shaohua arrived home, both her parents were there.
“Back?” Ye Guoliang glanced at Ye Shaohua and asked simply. He didn’t ask where she had been or why she had returned so late.
Ye Shaohua, thinking of the original person’s tendency to be reticent, didn’t say a word and went straight to her room.
This was the original Shaohua’s normal interaction with her parents.
Ye Shaohua even doubted whether they knew that her college entrance examination results were about to be released.
After Ye Shaohua closed her door, Lin Meizhi finally spoke, “How’s the search for the hospital records going?”
“Can’t find them,” Ye Guoqing sighed, “we don’t know where our biological daughter is or what she’s been through all these years.”
“If she’s not our own, she’s not our own,” Lin Meizhi said, looking at Ye Shaohua’s tightly shut door, “No matter how much you raise them, they never become familiar.”
When Lin Meizhi gave birth to Ye Shaohua, it was during her career peak, yet she was held back by Ye Shaohua. But Ye Guoliang couldn’t afford to be delayed; he was still busy at the hospital every day.
Lin Meizhi was left to care for Ye Shaohua by herself, and the elder family members only visited for a few days before returning to the countryside.
Therefore, Lin Meizhi felt nothing but resentment towards Shaohua’s birth. Both parents being medical staff at the hospital often had to work overtime, barely finding time for Ye Shaohua, which led to a very detached relationship.
Shaohua was sent to childcare by the age of three, and she had spoken more to her grandmother in B City than to her own parents.
When Ye Shaohua grew a little older, her kindergarten teachers mentioned that she seemed somewhat autistic. The couple regretted not spending enough time with their child as she grew up and began to accompany her more, which made Shaohua noticeably more cheerful for a time.
However, it wasn’t long before the couple discovered that she had a hereditary heart disease.
There was no history of such an illness in either the Ye or Lin families for several generations. Both parents, being in the medical field, could intuit a lot from this. Ye Guoqing and Lin Meizhi immediately performed a paternity test and found out that Shaohua was indeed not their biological child.
With the one-child policy in place by then, it was impossible for them to have another child.
The couple had been searching relentlessly for hospital records from that time but had not yet found which family had accidentally taken home their daughter.
The couple’s enthusiasm in finding their biological daughter meant they hardly paid any attention to Ye Shaohua. The young original person did not understand what she had done wrong or why her parents were so cold towards her.
Her reclusive personality only became more pronounced from that time on.
While Ye Shaohua’s parents were worried, the An Family also discovered that the daughter they had raised for twenty years was not their own.
But after all, they had raised her for twenty years, and she was no different from their own flesh and blood. The An Family didn’t intend to disclose the truth, but the old Master An insisted that they couldn’t let the bloodline of the An Family get lost.
An’s father also wanted to know how his biological daughter was doing, so he sought out the Ye Family.
Several paternity tests were conducted between the two, and indeed, a mistake had been made.
“Look at this, this is our daughter,” Ye Guoqing held the newspaper, which reported that An Toutou had won third place in the international biology competition, “She looks like you, and she’s so outstanding.”
The couple’s eyes brimmed with tears as they looked at their biological daughter with pride, yet also with a bittersweet feeling.
The first eighteen years of her life had passed without their involvement.
When Ye Shaohua finished checking her scores and came back, the couple folded the well-kept and neatly arranged papers and tucked them into their own pockets, then they told Ye Shaohua the truth about the mistaken exchange.
They then proposed that the two families meet for the first time at a restaurant that day.
To this, Ye Shaohua just raised her eyebrows slightly. Although somewhat aloof, her dark eyes shimmered brilliantly, and she always carried an air of quiet elegance and nobility that made her seem unapproachable.
Ye’s father and mother exchanged glances upon seeing her like this. They had raised her for eighteen years and had not let her down, yet she didn’t seem to hold any attachment.
But the couple was eager to see their own biological daughter and didn’t pay too much attention to that.
Upon reaching the destination, when the Ye couple saw the Golden Splendor hotel with its lavish decor where even a single dish cost four figures, they realized that their biological daughter’s living situation might be anything but ordinary.
The atmosphere of this kind of hotel was completely different from what they usually experienced, and they both felt somewhat out of place.
But Ye Shaohua appeared as if she was taking a leisurely stroll in her own courtyard.
When the two entered, they found three people sitting inside: An’s father and mother, along with Ye Shaohua’s nominal older brother, An Tingjun, who was only three years her senior and was a junior in the business management department.
Next to them stood the first assistant of An’s father.
An’s mother, upon seeing Ye Shaohua, who did not look like she had come from a humble background, felt somewhat relieved. It seemed her foster parents had not mistreated her.
However, a complexity could be seen deep within her eyes. Although An Toutou was not her biological daughter, she had raised her for eighteen years as her own. Toutou had grown up according to her preferences, receiving all her love.
Now, Toutou suddenly had another set of parents, which was something difficult for An’s mother to accept.

“Please, have a seat,” An’s mother said to Ye Shaohua with a gentle gaze. Despite some distance between them, seeing Ye Shaohua’s face, which bore some resemblance to both herself and old An, she felt quite fond of her, “Toutou and Pei Xu went to the education bureau to check their scores. We were planning a celebration for Toutou, but I asked her to come over immediately.”
When she mentioned An Toutou, her eyes lit up with a rare softness.
It was clear she must hold great affection for An Toutou.
“Toutou has very good grades, right?” Hearing An’s mother mention this, Ye Guoqing and his wife were filled with pride.
“Yes, she scored third in the national examination this time,” An’s mother said, her smile even brighter, “She has never caused us any worries since she was little.”
Securing the third spot in the national examination and being sought after by several prestigious universities was an outstanding achievement. Ye Guoqing and his wife had not expected An Toutou to be so exceptional; they were so happy they almost cried.
If it weren’t for the presence of the An Family, they would have called their relatives to share this great news.
An’s mother tactfully did not mention Ye Shaohua’s grades, as according to the information she had gathered, Ye Shaohua attended a third-tier school and her results were quite average. Mentioning it now would surely make her feel uncomfortable.
However, mentioning An Toutou gave
