Chapter 259
Guo Yalan's eyes were rolling so hard they almost reached the ceiling. She was about to mock, but seeing the uncertain looks from the people around her, she hesitated. Han Ziyu, whom she was holding onto, also seemed to stiffen for a moment.
Guo Yalan couldn't help but feel a mix of amusement and frustration. Did her sister actually worry that she might be interested in her?
Han Ziyu was genuinely shocked. After all, she didn't know Guo Yalan as well as Qi Li did, so she wasn't sure if what Qi Li said was true or not. But it was true that Guo Yalan was the only person who had been so kind to her from the very first meeting.
Looking back, although they clicked, Guo Yalan's proactive kindness was a bit baffling. Moreover, Han Ziyu herself felt a bit guilty. She had liked other boys before, and the feeling she had for Guo Yalan was different. But this was the first time she had felt such a strange and wonderful attraction to a woman she had just met. So, she was also a bit lost.
Ji Fei and Qin Xian knew the reason behind it, but they weren't sure if Guo Yalan would explain it.
【I've heard before that people with blood relations, if they don't know each other, might feel an unusually strong affinity upon first meeting. Of course, if this affinity isn't clearly understood, it could lead to misunderstandings.】
Ji Fei let her thoughts wander for a while, and by then, Guo Yalan had made up her mind. Although this wasn't part of her original plan.
She raised her hand and threw the documents she was holding straight at Qi Li's face.
"Open your dog eyes and look clearly! What kind of nonsense is in your head? Compared to you, of course, I'd be more inclined to care for her!"
After saying that, Guo Yalan ignored Qi Li's reaction and turned to Han Ziyu.
"Xiao Yu, I'm sorry. I was planning to tell you privately, but this idiot messed everything up! Now that things have come to this, if I don't clarify it in public, others might be misled by this fool into thinking there's something strange between us. I don't care about my reputation, but I can't let this fool ruin yours. So, I'll announce it now: you are my half-sister, my biological mother's daughter."
Guo Yalan's words were like a thunderclap on a clear day.
Everyone began to wonder if they were all hallucinating. How could there be such a shocking revelation?
"Qi Li found a stand-in for Guo Yalan, but it turns out to be her sister?"
"Half-sister? They share the same mother? Wait, my brain can't keep up."
"Is Guo Yalan joking? She's always been one to say anything."
As they were talking, Qi Li suddenly shouted, "How is that possible?!"
At that moment, someone with sharp eyes noticed the content of the documents.
It's a professional verification. They really are related by blood.
"I knew it! How could it be such a coincidence? They look so much alike."
"Wow, this is... huge news."
Except for Ji Fei and Qin Xian, who didn't rush over, the other friends gathered around Qi Li.
"It's true!" Luo Fei exclaimed in astonishment.
"Today's information overload is just too much." Bai Xiaoxi and Yu Yue were both shocked. Could there be such a coincidence in the world?
Jing Yan's mouth twitched. What kind of situation was this? Qi Li had previously planned to mess with both sisters.
Cen Ting was astonished and asked, "Yalan, did your family have a lost child?"
Han Ziyu suddenly spoke up, "How is that possible?! I have parents, I..."
The news was too shocking, and Han Ziyu couldn't easily accept it.
Guo Yalan held Han Ziyu's hand and said seriously, "Your mother is indeed my... biological mother. My current mother is my stepmother. This information just hasn't been widely known in the country. The moment I saw you, I felt a strong connection, which I believe is the effect of blood ties. I took a strand of your hair for a verification out of suspicion, and there's no mistake. We are truly sisters."
Guo Yalan continued, a bit nervous, "Don't you want me as your sister? Your parents are gone, and I'm your only relative now. I didn't know about your existence before, and I let you suffer in the orphanage for so many years. Don't worry, from now on, no one will ever let you suffer again."
Based on Guo Yalan's investigation of Han Ziyu, the two sisters had similar tragic lives.
When she was five, her mother left, and when Han Ziyu was four, her mother died. Neither of them had ever experienced complete maternal love. Truly a pair of unfortunate sisters.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
But Guo Yalan had a great father and stepmother, living the life of a wealthy young lady, while Han Ziyu had grown up in a poor orphanage, lonely and struggling.
Imagining the hardships Han Ziyu had endured, and now, for money, willingly playing the role of a stand-in, Guo Yalan felt nothing but heartache.
Guo Yalan, who had always been bold and unrestrained, was now looking at Han Ziyu with the most tender and loving gaze, almost cautiously.
Han Ziyu, who couldn't handle it, realized that her fondness for Guo Yalan was indeed a blood-related bond.
Thinking about it this way, it didn't seem so hard to accept.
It was almost like a pie falling from the sky.
Han Ziyu was overwhelmed by a mix of emotions and felt a bit dazed.
"You really don't want me as your sister?" Guo Yalan even started to act pitiful.
Han Ziyu immediately shook her head, "No, I want..."
Then she felt both awkward and embarrassed.
"Then call me sister," Guo Yalan's eyes sparkled, her lips slightly trembling, as if eagerly anticipating something wonderful.
Han Ziyu paused, and under Guo Yalan's expectant gaze, she finally called out, "Sister."
In an instant, Guo Yalan's eyes welled up with tears.
Their friends, who had never seen Guo Yalan like this, were all stunned.
Seeing Guo Yalan's red eyes, Han Ziyu also felt her own eyes welling up, as if she could feel her sister's emotions and wanted to cry.
"Sister!" Guo Yalan also called out solemnly, then reached out and hugged Han Ziyu tightly.
It was truly a touching scene of sisterly love.
Most of the people, besides being shocked and amazed by the gossip, didn't really understand Guo Yalan's actions.
After all, could an ordinary person accept so easily a child their own mother had with someone else?
But Guo Yalan wasn't an ordinary person.
She knew that she would never get married or have children in this lifetime. Finding a blood relative, especially such a lovely and similar-looking sister, made it impossible not to like her.
Look, her sister was so good, obedient and well-behaved, so easily accepting her as a sister. She had really hit the jackpot.
Even Ji Fei was a bit touched and took the lead in applauding to celebrate.
The others looked at Ji Fei, then at Qin Xian, who was also clapping, and gradually joined in with the applause.
"Congratulations on successfully recognizing your sister!" Ji Fei said happily.
Guo Yalan immediately introduced her sister, saying, "This is my sister, everyone, remember that!" while affectionately stroking Han Ziyu's head.
Han Ziyu was still a bit dazed, feeling that everything had happened too quickly.
As they turned to face the disheartened Qi Li, Guo Yalan warned again, "Remember, I was the one who dated you. My sister was only hired by you as an actress for a while. If you dare to spread rumors about my sister again, I'll break your legs!"
