With the sound of Qiutong's voice, everyone instantly glanced over with questions in their eyes, not sure about what Qiutong wanted to do.
The crowd exchanged glances and were murmuring amongst one another, then they heard Qiutong say, "I heard about the situation earlier. Regarding Qian Caijun's actions and harassment towards my niece, I will do a thorough investigation, and of course, it won't be limited to legal consequences."
This clearly meant that she was going to mess with him.
Did Qiutong have to go this far for an adopted daughter from the village?
Even Chairman and Chaerin had not said anything earlier.
In that instance, the crowd was clearly baffled.
"Other than that, I think everyone has misunderstood, so I feel the need to explain to those of you present. Earlier, as I already introduced, Jennie is my niece, my biological niece. She's not adopted!"
The moment Qiutong said that, it caused a commotion.
Krystal immediately turned pale. Chairman and Chaerin wanted to stop her from saying anything further but it was too late. Qiutong swiftly continued, "When Jennie and Krystal were born, they had been taken home wrongly from the hospital. We only got Jennie back to the Kim residence from the countryside when she was 18! Jennie is my biological niece, our eldest granddaughter of the Kim family! Today, don't talk about Jennie's identity at hand. Even if she was just a regular girl, Qian Caijun's actions earlier were still despicable! I trust that no one here would disagree!"
Chaerin's pupils abruptly contracted in ire. "Qiutong! She dared! She really dared to do that! I'll tear her apart!"
Chairman pulled Chaerin back roughly. "Calm down! Look at what occasion it is! Don't you think we've caused enough of a ruckus? If you fight with her now, what good would you do? Everything she's saying is true! How about we just wait for things to calm down?"
At this moment, no one cared about Qian Caijun. Everyone's attention had turned to Qiutong's shocking exposè.
"What...what's going on? Krystal's not their biological daughter? It's actually Jennie?"
"Wait, wait, my head's about to go dizzy. So, you're saying that Jennie is the real lady of the Kim family and that Krystal's just a countryside girl that was brought home wrongly? This is just crazy!"
"No wonder Jennie's charisma and poise are so outstanding! Who would have thought there would be another layer of secrecy in this?!"
"Pfft, he actually publicly messed with the real lady! He's dead this time. No wonder Qiutong is this angry!"
"I think the situation's not that simple. If it really was as Qiutong said, why did the Kim family not announce Jennie's identity earlier? Instead, they pampered Krystal like she's their real daughter. Are Chairman and Chaerin cuckoo in the head?"
...
Krystal's best friends, Somi and Hyejin, exchanged looks, then they looked to Krystal with an odd expression.
Krystal was not even the biological daughter of the Kim family, but was an actual hillbilly? On the contrary, Jennie was actually the real daughter?
This... How could this be!?
If that was the case, what was the meaning of all those times they had hung out with her, treated her like a princess, and even laughed at Jennie together?
If that was the case, Krystal must have been in the loop herself, yet she had not said anything while she watched them like fools?
What was actually going on here?!
