By the time Father Shi and the other two arrived, the fire had been extinguished, leaving only a pile of burned-out ashes which was later scattered by a gust of wind.

The servants were standing on one side with water still dripping from their empty buckets.

Not far from them was another security guard lying on the ground nearby, groaning in pain.

Father Shi felt his blood boil. He looked at the culprit with burning eyes. "Why are you acting like a lunatic?!"

Shi Wenfei glanced at Shi Ran and sniggered.

Could it be that this b*tch thought that she could make my parents change their minds?

'That's stupid!'

Despite her silent criticism, she stepped forward.

Frowning in disapproval, Shi Wenfei chimed in. "Sister, what are you doing? Even if you're unhappy, you shouldn't set fire to the house. What if you burn it down? There are so many people in the house! You're too willful!"

"You're the one who had my clothes dumped at the door and suggested for me to live in a kennel?" Shi Ran turned to Shi Wenfei and asked directly.

Shi Wenfei gritted her teeth while her expression showed a mixture of grievance and anger. "Sister, why are you always so mean to me?!"

"I know my return troubled you, but I've never felt my parents' love since I was a child."

"I also want to get along with you and be good sisters. Why aren't you willing to give me this chance? Am I really that bad?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a few tears fell from Shi Wenfei's eyes.

Seeing this, Mother Shi's heart ached.

She stepped forward at once, her well-manicured face twisted with anger.

She pointed at Shi Ran, her voice sharp and powerful. "Shi Ran! You ingrate! If Feifei hadn't gone missing back then, do you think we would have adopted you?"

"All these years, your rich life should have belonged to Feifei! Even when she's back, we were willing to keep you in the Shi family, but you just kept bullying Feifei!"

Mother Shi said almost every word through gritted teeth.

"That's right! Miss Feifei is the real Missy. What else is Miss Shi Ran not satisfied with?"

"I prefer Miss Feifei. She's so beautiful and kind. Unlike Miss Shi Ran, she'll only embarrass the Shi family!"

The servants whispered among themselves. Almost everyone felt that Shi Ran did not know better.

All the malice surged towards Shi Ran at that moment as leaves rustled in the wind behind her.

Under the illumination of the streetlamp, her figure looked so slender it was as if she would collapse when the wind blew.

"Haha." Her soft laughter mixed with the sound of the wind sounded ear piercing in the still night.

Shi Ran stared cynically at everyone standing opposite her.

When her gaze finally landed on Mother Shi, she said, "Grandpa was the one who adopted me back then. You were the one who lost your daughter, and you were also the ones who wanted to adopt me. Everyone knows your motive for adopting me back then.

I don't have to take any responsibility for the hard life she's had over the years. It's not a reason for her to steal my fiancé or be a mistress. It's not an excuse for you to accuse me here!"
