351: The fake daughter's true identity is exposed, making a last-ditch effort?

Looking at the broken watch on the floor, everyone in the living room had a strange expression.

Especially Tang Chuan, who had been so confident, was now dumbfounded, frozen in place, his expression both comical and ridiculous.

“Sister, your watch? Why…”

Tang Chuan opened his mouth, his gaze towards Tang Rou filled with complexity, mixed with a hint of disbelief.

He had only lightly touched the watch, so why did it suddenly break? Combining this with his Nephew’s inner thoughts he had overheard, Tang Chuan’s brows furrowed, and he was terrified the more he thought about it!!!

“Xiao Rou, aren’t you going to explain?”

Aside from Lin Xuan and Chu Ling, who stood by watching the show with schadenfreude.

Tang Guoan and his wife both had complex expressions, and their eyes towards Tang Rou contained disappointment.

From childhood to adulthood, this daughter had always been very well-behaved and kind in their hearts.

But all the events that transpired today seemed to have completely overturned Tang Rou’s previously good image.

Could it be… that this daughter, who they thought they knew inside and out, had actually been faking her true self for so many years???

No way! No way!!!

Just thinking about it felt too scary!!!!!! (ÒωÓױ)!

…“Xiao Rou, you just said this watch was carefully selected by you? Specially commissioned to be bought from the United States?”

“But I see the dial font is blurry, the color is uneven, the watch case has scratches, and the craftsmanship of the strap is very rough; it’s likely made of inferior materials.”

“This kind of low-grade pirated item, let alone being worth 300,000, might not even be worth 30,000. To give such a gift to someone? What exactly were you thinking?”

“And why did this watch break with just a touch? If I didn’t know it was impossible, I would have thought Xiao Chuan deliberately broke it?!”

“…”

Picking up the watch that had fallen to the floor, Xu Shuyun examined it carefully, then her expression turned serious as she posed a soul-searching question to Tang Rou.

Facing her Mother’s unprecedented questioning tone, Tang Rou immediately panicked, but still feigned composure and began to explain:

“Ah… this?! Mother, I don’t know either!”

“I don’t know much about men’s watches. My best friend strongly recommended I buy this, she said boys all like to wear this kind of expensive watch. So I easily believed her.”

“I never expected… she would actually trick me like this Ծ‸Ծ…”

“I’m sorry, Brother! I sincerely wanted to give you a grand gift. Who would have thought… I’m sorry, I really didn’t do it on purpose. Wuwuwu…”

“…”

As she spoke, Tang Rou’s eyes reddened, and she began to wipe away tears, presenting a pitiful sight.

Seeing this, Xu Shuyun and the others’ brows relaxed slightly, unable to blame her further.

Because of her deeply ingrained image over the years, the Tang Family subconsciously believed Tang Rou’s words.

Perhaps… it wasn’t her fault, but her hateful best friend’s… Xiao Rou should just be an innocent victim who was deceived?!!

…[Seriously, in just a few words, she pushed all the blame onto a non-existent best friend! Nicely put, 'I have a friend…']

[→_→ Heh heh, I don't believe you! You scheming b*tch are really bad!!!]

[But looking at the pained expressions of my blind family members, they will definitely choose to believe her like idiots again.]

[Sigh, are they all brainless? Do they really believe everything the Fake Heiress says?]

[She bought this thing from a street vendor for 9.9 yuan after bargaining.]

[If any of my Uncle and the others asked to see the receipt or bill, Tang Rou would be exposed on the spot...]

[But they just won't ask, they just blindly trust her, it's really incredibly speechless! I'm too frustrated to even complain!]

…Under the Nephew’s sarcastic inner thoughts, the Tang Family members couldn’t help but show a hint of awkwardness on their faces.

Finally, Tang Guoan, with a cold face, demanded that Tang Rou provide evidence.

“Xiao Rou, who is that friend of yours?”

“Tell me her name, and then send me the receipt or bill and other evidence later.”

“Although 300,000 isn’t much, if she dares to trick my precious daughter, I will never let her off easily!!! I must have the company’s lawyers sue her to get justice for you.”

“…”

Tang Guoan still refused to believe that his beloved daughter, whom he had raised for many years, would be such a liar; she must have been maliciously deceived by someone.

As long as Tang Rou produced evidence, he would still unconditionally choose to believe her.

But what disappointed Tang Guoan was… facing his concerned inquiry, Tang Rou’s face showed unnaturalness, and she kept stammering, her words vague and unclear.

“Father, I… I didn’t think so much at the time, and I threw away the receipt and everything.”

“As for my best friend, that is… my best friend. Even if she deceived me, I still don’t want to part ways with her…”

“…”

In short, she kept saying that the evidence was lost, and she didn’t want to reveal her best friend’s identity, essentially giving evasive answers.

This act of burying her head in the sand made all the Tang Family members present feel a sinking sensation in their hearts.

At this moment, Chu Ling was undoubtedly the most relieved person in the room.

Seeing Tang Rou being interrogated by everyone because of her lies, she felt a sense of triumphant relief, and couldn’t help but interject sarcastically:

“The receipt is lost? And you won’t say who the person is? Surely, you must have the transfer records on your phone, right?”

“Or, is someone making up a friend out of thin air?”

“…”

As soon as these words came out, Tang Rou seemed to find a breakthrough, quickly pointing the finger at Chu Ling and trying every means to change the subject.

She bit her lip, putting on a wronged expression.

“Sister, how can you slander me like this? Can you really not tolerate me?”

“I know you hate me for taking away eighteen years of your life, so you’re trying every possible way to find an opportunity to drive me away. Fine, I’ll leave right now!”

“Father! Mother! Brother! Everything I have now originally belonged to Sister; I have already occupied it for so many years.”

“Now that Sister is back, let everything return to its rightful owner! Xiao Rou thanks you all for your meticulous care and concern over these years.”

“Xiao Rou will always bless you and pray to heaven to keep you happy and healthy.”

“Goodbye, family! Tonight I will embark on a long journey, please don’t worry about me…”

“…”
