Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 640 Candidness_1

Shangguan Hao’s brows were tightly furrowed as he recounted the events of the morning.

"Dad, I have many restless people over there too, who could stir up trouble at any moment. If our forces become disordered, and should our area descend into chaos as well, we will truly be beyond redemption," Shangguan Yu said, his expression equally grave, voicing his own concerns.

"Hmm, You girl, what do you think?" Shangguan Zhi pondered for a few seconds before turning his gaze towards Shangguan You. In reality, there was something he hadn’t said. Not only were there issues on both the military and political fronts, but even among their own high-ranking officials, there were numerous problems. However, this was not the time to speak of such matters.

"Grandfather, Uncle, Daddy, this is just temporary. After today, I believe these events will not occur again. But after the New Year, when springtime brings warmth and blossoms, perhaps something more serious might happen," Shangguan You said quietly. She naturally knew why these incidents had occurred prematurely; if she hadn’t pushed Young Master Ye to desperation, he wouldn’t have thought to seek refuge in such a way.

In doing so, although it had diverted her attention, it had also exposed quite a few things about Young Master Ye.

"Girl, are these matters related to you?" After a brief silence, Shangguan Zhi spoke again, his question cutting to the heart of the issue.

Feeling the eyes of her family turn towards her, Shangguan You’s heart gave an involuntary leap. These things were bound to happen sooner or later. It was impossible to keep them hidden forever. Moreover, there was still some time left for her to make preparations. She couldn’t always be by her family’s side. They needed to be alert, and they had to have the ability to protect themselves.

"Yes, they are related to me," Shangguan You nodded. She decided to disclose everything to them. By doing so, whatever she did in the future, her family would have peace of mind and might even be able to help her.

"Tell us everything that happened to you, starting from your trip to B City," Shangguan Hao said tenderly, stroking Shangguan You’s hair.

"Okay," Shangguan You nodded. With a wave of her hands, a barrier was erected around them. Even if someone was eavesdropping or observing, they would not be able to hear what was being said.

"Grandfather, Uncle, Aunt, Daddy, Brother Qing, actually, it’s quite simple. During my time in B City, as you know, I became withdrawn due to trauma, which is why you sent me there to be cared for by Aunt Zhang. Although I was away from here, my condition didn’t improve; it even worsened," she confessed.

At this point, Shangguan Hao couldn’t help but heave a deep sigh. As a father, he felt he had failed to take care of his daughter; it was his fault that so many things had happened to You girl.

"Daddy, you shouldn’t blame yourself. I should also thank you for sending me to B City; otherwise, I wouldn’t have turned calamity into a blessing," Shangguan You said with a light chuckle, smiling at her family’s compassionate gazes.

"There, due to an accident, I acquired something that changed my fate, Daddy. I gained the legendary space," Shangguan You spoke calmly, omitting the fact that she was reborn but recounting all the other events that had happened to her.

Even her trip to Hidden World Village and her grievances with Young Master Ye were laid out. Witnessing their astonished expressions, Shangguan You’s smile grew more pronounced. See? You wouldn’t know unless I told you, and once I do, it’s quite a shock. Her family was the perfect example.

"Girl, do you realize what you’re saying?" After some time, Shangguan Zhi was the first to come to his senses. He truly didn’t know that his granddaughter, without any fanfare, had amassed such considerable influence, crossing both lawful and unlawful realms, even claiming the Inferno Gang as her domain.

And that she had ventured to a place like Hidden World Village, renowned for its extraordinary inhabitants, and that so much had transpired with the Ye Family!

"Grandfather, everything I’ve said is true." Shangguan You laughed, waving her hands again as the previously invisible purple bracelet reappeared on her wrist. The purple bracelet, now emitting a multi-colored glow, reflected the accumulation of the Five Spirit Pearls. The colors on the bracelet mirrored the Spiritual Energy within her body—it displayed a color for each type of Spiritual Energy she possessed.

"Girl," Liu Ruo reached out to touch the glowing bracelet, but before her hand could make contact, the light dissipated, and the bracelet vanished from Shangguan You’s wrist again.

"What’s going on? Is that space the reason for all your abilities, including concocting those medicines?"

"Yes, the water you drink, the fruits, even the herbs and the elixirs, are all from there. Daddy’s wound healed so quickly because I used resources from inside it. However, only I can enter that space, and I can’t take anyone with me," Shangguan You confirmed with a nod, speaking again.

"Daddy, how much do you know about what happened to Mom?" Shangguan You asked Shangguan Hao, her gaze sweeping over him and the rest of the stunned family, as she inquired about Lin Mengjie.

"Why do you ask about that?" Shangguan Hao responded, somewhat unnaturally. It had been seventeen long years without any contact with Lin Mengjie. Was she doing well? Was Ouyang Xuan treating her well?

"Both mothers are also within my space."

"What?" Shangguan Hao exclaimed. Not only he but the others also looked at Shangguan You as if they had seen a ghost.

"You girl, do you know what you’re saying? Did you really see Mengjie?" Liu Ruo, who had been sitting, suddenly stood up. Her body trembled slightly, her face a mixture of disbelief as she looked at Shangguan You. If what Shangguan You had just said could be accepted, she would truly be happy for the girl. But to say she had seen Lin Mengjie, and even two of them—how could that be possible?

"Ruoling, sit down. Let the girl explain slowly," Shangguan Yu said reassuringly, steadying Liu Ruo’s trembling body.

"Girl, explain clearly. How can there be two Mengjies? What exactly is going on?" Shangguan Hao asked seriously. As the years passed, Lin Mengjie’s image didn’t fade from his memory; in fact, it became clearer. But whenever he thought of Lin Mengjie’s resolute departure, not even giving him a chance to explain, Shangguan Hao’s heart would ache inexplicably.
