"Child, this inheritance is what your father left for you; what others say doesn't matter. Just remember that your father loved you," said the Xiang Clan Leader with a heavy heart, his words reminding Xiao Ruo of the indisputable fact that she belonged to the Xiang Family.
"Yes, child," several Xiang Clan elders also chimed in to persuade her, "This was your father's final wish; he only hoped you would live well. If you refuse it, he will not rest in peace."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ruo frowned unhappily, and Mother Sheng, standing behind her, leaned forward to whisper a few words in her ear, prompting Xiao Ruo to hold back the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
"Brother Fu?" Xiao Ruo looked to the man beside her.
Mother Sheng had reminded her rightly. She couldn't be sure if this Xiang Tongde was her biological father. If she handled this matter too rashly, she would not only regret it later but also draw criticism.
