On my tenth birthday, Auntie Zhang, our drunk nanny, hugged me and said I was her daughter.
I pretended I hadn't heard.
I continued living a lavish life, adored by my parents. I got my first house at ten, my first company at fifteen, and at twenty-two, I returned from studying abroad to fulfill my engagement to the Gu family, the richest family in the country.
Meanwhile, Auntie Zhang's daughter Zhaodi was responsible for cooking and housework for the whole family at ten. At fifteen, she was forced to drop out of school and work illegally. At eighteen, she was beaten nearly to death for refusing to return to her village and get married, then disappeared without a trace.
Time proved I had made the right choice.
On my wedding day, I was exchanging rings with my husband.
Then Zhaodi, covered in injuries, suddenly barged in.
"I'm the real Gu heiress! I'm taking back my parents and my engagement!"
I calmly took off my veil and smiled. "Sure."
