“A girl picked up in the countryside thinks she deserves the Gu family name?”
At the family recognition banquet, everyone in the Gu family doted on the fake heiress, while the real heiress, Jiang Ning, was left alone in the farthest corner. She wore old clothes, and no one even put a morsel of food on her plate.
They had no idea that this girl they looked down on was the sole disciple of a reclusive sect that had been hidden from the world for a century. She only had to show a little of her medical skill, appraisal expertise, or ancient martial arts, and all of the capital would fight to claim her.
When the old master suddenly suffered a heart attack at the banquet, the city’s famous doctors were helpless. With her own hands, she pulled him back from death’s door.
Then she exposed the fake heiress, who had plotted to humiliate her: every birthday gift on the table was a counterfeit.
The wealthy wives who had once called her crude now competed to seek her help, while the socialites who had trampled on her were utterly defeated. As her secret identities were revealed one by one, the Gu family was humiliated again and again.
Later, the Gu family knelt and begged her to reclaim her place among them.
Jiang Ning glanced back at the third brother who had protected her since childhood and said coolly, “Reclaim my place with whom? He’s the only person in this world who’s ever truly cared for me.”
