“I just love you too much, care about you and Dad, and my brother. I was afraid that Nan Yan would take you away…”

Amidst her tears and sobbing, An Muyao held onto the bedsheet on the hospital bed, pleading, “Mom, please don’t send me away. I beg you, I won’t do it again. I won’t compete with Nan Yan for anything anymore. Just let me stay by your side!”

She absolutely didn’t want to leave the An family and go to that rundown place in the countryside.

That would truly ruin her!

After eighteen years of living as a young lady, how could she adapt to those difficult days?

Just the thought of how Nan Hongyang and Li Shufen treated Nan Yan made her shudder.

If it were her, she wouldn’t be able to bear it!

Lu Lehua’s heart wavered about An Muyao. Hearing her crying, she felt a bit hesitant.

She had pampered this child from childhood to adulthood, always taking pride in her.

From childhood to adulthood, she had been outstanding, never making any mistakes.

Except in matters involving Nan Yan…

Her internal scales still tipped towards An Muyao.

“Get up first. This matter isn’t something that Mom can decide alone. Your reputation online has been ruined now. We need to see how your father reacts… ”

As a couple, Lu Lehua understood An Yaoqing’s character very well.

Driven by profit, he only valued what was beneficial.

When An Muyao was outstanding before, she was his obedient daughter, his treasured pearl.

But now that her online reputation was ruined, her future career might be affected. He probably wouldn’t care about the eighteen years of nurturing familial ties.

“Mom, can you help me persuade Dad? I can’t bear to leave you all. I’ve always treated you as my biological parents. Leaving you all is worse than death…

An Muyao cried miserably, even using the threat of suicide.

She knew that Lu Lehua had a soft heart and truly cared for her.

Even if she had done something wrong, as long as she reflected on it and sincerely apologized, she believed that in the end, Lu Lehua would forgive her!

Lu Lehua’s heart began to waver.

Everything she had done was out of jealousy that Nan Yan was her biological daughter. She was afraid that Nan Yan would return and take away everything she had.

She was young at the time, just a child, with jealousy and fear of losing. Her actions then seemed somewhat understandable…

Lu Lehua recalled Nan Yan’s coldness and rebellious attitude towards her, and then she thought of An Muyao, who had always been close and obedient to her.

Other than her actions against Nan Yan, An Muyao truly had no other faults…

“Muyao, if you want to stay in the An family, find a way to change the online perception of you. I’ll talk to your father about it.”

An Muyao’s eyes glistened with tears as she choked out, “Mom, thank you…”

The next morning.

Or more accurately, at three in the morning that night. A piece of news once again exploded on the internet.

# An Muyao slit her wrist to commit suicide #

It shot up the trending topics in an instant.

Soon after, a handwritten letter was posted as well.

An Muyao had hired a professional team to write this emotionally charged “apology letter.”

At this point, if she denied or refused to acknowledge it, she would only face harsher criticism.

So she confessed to her actions against Nan Yan.

However, the team portrayed her as a spoiled child, suddenly facing competition from a new sibling, her biological parents’ daughter. She made those mistakes out of confusion and fear of abandonment.

The letter included a sincere apology to Nan Yan, acknowledging her wrongdoings and expressing a willingness to atone through this statement.

She even left a handprint of her blood as her signature.

This handwritten apology letter, coupled with the news of An Muyao being rushed into the emergency room, caused some internet users to change their attitudes towards her.

Meanwhile, the army of hired supporters also manipulated the narrative online.

[Actually, it’s understandable. Who would want someone else to compete for their parents’ attention? An Muyao is just a young girl. She acted out of jealousy and confusion. Now that she’s realized her mistakes, we should give her a chance to change.]

[She’s only eighteen and she attempted suicide due to pressure. Let’s not push her any further!]

[I’ve met Miss An Muyao before, and she’s really a kind person. Yes, she made a mistake this time, but I believe she still has a kind heart!]

[Exactly, she’s willing to atone with her life, so she must genuinely regret her actions. Let’s stop cyberbullying her.]

death is going too far.]

Of course, alongside the supporters, there were those who rejected this explanation:

[What a joke. Someone is speaking up for her even though she did something wrong. You’re not the victim, are you?]

[Don’t advise others to be good unless you’ve experienced their suffering. The real heiress is the one who suffered. No one has the right to forgive An Muyao on her behalf.]

[Where were these white knights when the real heiress was being bullied online? Of course, I was part of the mob back then. Now I’m apologizing to the real heiress sincerely.]

[Netizens are so hypocritical. Even after all this, they still think An Muyao can be cleansed. She’s too malicious. Now she’s using suicide to garner sympathy.

It’s disgusting!]

[If she really wanted to die, there are plenty of ways. Throughout history, very few wrist-cutting suicides have succeeded. This is just a show.]

Nan Yan naturally saw these news.

She gave a disdainful snort, closed her phone, and went to check on the porridge she was cooking.

If An Muyao wanted to make a spectacle, let her.

She wasn’t in a hurry to end this, and she didn’t mind playing with her a bit longer.

After finishing the porridge and packing it into a thermal container, Nan Yan planned to visit Grandfather An in the hospital.

When she opened the door, Qin Lu stood right outside.

Qin Lu had been about to knock on the door, but seeing her come out, he leaned against the doorframe and looked down at her from a higher vantage point.

“Going to the hospital?”

“Yeah.” Nan Yan raised the thermal container in her hand. “Taking lunch to

Grandfather.”

“Let’s go. I’ll accompany you.”

Nan Yan nodded, locked the door, and they walked downstairs together.

“Little one, did you see the new hot topic online?”

Qin Lu wasn’t fond of surfing the web. He rarely paid attention to those mundane and distant news before.

But because of Nan Yan, he had been keeping track of the online situation in the past couple of days.

So, as soon as An Muyao’s apology came out, he saw it.

Nan Yan raised her gaze to look at him and replied, “Yes, I did.”

“What are your thoughts?”

Nan Yan’s smile was cool as she said, “Initially, I was thinking of giving her a good scolding and preventing her from bouncing around in front of me. But now I’ve changed my mind.”

An Muyao had brought this upon herself, so Nan Yan couldn’t really blame her.

Now let’s see how long this tenacious little bug can hold on.

“Alright…”

Qin Lu understood that she had her own ideas.

The young one had a mind of her own and didn’t like interference from others. So, for now, he would refrain from getting involved.

Upon arriving at the hospital, Nan Yan learned that the other two brothers from the An family had also arrived….
