The butler joined the Leaangle Family the year Luyan succeeded as the head of the family.
Although he couldn’t follow Luyan like Qing Lang at all times, he deeply admired Luyan.
Now that Luyan and Su Wen’s biological daughter has returned, he is happier than anyone else.
"I am back." Bier lifted her chin, "Why didn’t I see this kind of fuss before?"
Or did they know her experiment was about to succeed and she was about to be promoted to an S-level researcher?
"Huh?" The butler was a bit puzzled, "Miss Bier, of course, I know you have returned, weren’t you asking me what I was preparing for?"
"Yes." Bier was a bit impatient, "What are you preparing for?"
"The eldest lady has returned, that’s a happy event." The butler’s expression turned melancholic again, "Sigh, I don’t know where the head of the family is now, but if he knew, he would definitely be very happy."
The inability to conclusively determine Luyan’s death was because the safety chip on his body was destroyed, unable to transmit his physical data back.
A glimmer of hope, but more despair.
Head of the family!
Bier’s mind buzzed.
The eldest lady the butler mentioned, is Luyan and Su Wen’s child?
How is this possible?
She clearly heard her mother, the Second Madam, say that Tanxin died shortly after birth.
If Tanxin has returned, then who was buried in the grave?!
"Butler, stop making this kind of joke." Bier restrained the storm in her heart, "Do you know, this joke is not funny at all, it’s very offensive!"
"The First Madam did a DNA test yesterday, it is indeed the eldest lady, Young Master Shaoying also knows." The butler’s expression instantly turned cold, "Miss Bier, congratulations, you will have a sister from now on."
This sentence directly sentenced Bier to death.
Her head buzzed even more violently.
Bier’s lips pulled up slightly, revealing a rather ugly smile.
A sister?
No matter what, she was older than Tanxin, but due to the ranking, her seniority was pressed down?
Bier tightly clutched the bag in her hand and went upstairs, disheartened.
The Second Madam seemed to have known she would be like this and was already sitting in the bedroom waiting.
She looked up at Bier: "You know about the eldest lady’s matter?"
"Mom, this is simply impossible, how can a dead person come back to life?!" Bier threw her bag aside, exceedingly angry, "I just can’t accept it!"
One Yuh Shaoying was already enough, and now another one appears?
Yuh Shaoying wasn’t a big threat to her, after all, the Yuh Family and the Leaangle Family had different ways of nurturing direct lineage members.
But the eldest lady is the head’s child, also the first in line to inherit.
"How many times have I told you, don’t be so hasty in doing things." The Second Madam floated her tea, blowing gently, "So what if she’s back, having been adrift for so long, who knows how she turned out."
Bier instantly calmed down at these words: "Right."
The Leaangle Family is not a place ordinary people can just enter.
Even if they enter, they have to see if they can withstand the pressure.
Bier pressed her lips: "Mom, have you seen her?"
"Not yet." The Second Madam put down her teacup, "From what the First Madam said, there are still a few matters to handle, and a banquet will be officially held on September 1st to announce it to the whole city."
Bier lowered her head, her nails pinching her clothes.
She would not let this eldest lady steal her thunder.

At the research institute.
Ying Zijin slept until four in the afternoon.
She opened her eyes, feeling much of the fatigue from entering the City of the World for these two months dissipate.
"Awake." Su Wen smiled and touched her head, "Mom made soup for you at noon, and some snacks, come eat."
"Mm." Ying Zijin slowly stretched, walked over, and picked up the chopsticks, "Thank you, Mom."
Su Wen looked at the girl, light in her eyes and brows: "Is it good?"
"Very good." Ying Zijin took a bite of the snack, "It just still feels a bit unreal."
Su Wen’s heart ached: "In the future, there will be a long time, it won’t feel unreal."
She solemnly placed a round pocket watch in her hand: "Yaoyao, this is what your father left for you, passed down through the direct lineage of the Leaangle Family, and now I give it to you."
"Regardless of whether your father is... you must take good care of this watch."
The pocket watch was silver, it hadn’t rusted even after so many years.
Inside was a photo of Luyan in his youth.
The man rode a horse, high-spirited, and impressive.
Ying Zijin’s eyes slightly sank.
Her adoptive father could disregard his own health to raise her and Wen Tinglan.
Her biological father, risked his life to first extract the Gene Lock.
She had two good fathers.
