“Ever since my husband passed away, I’ve felt like half a fairy. When I look at others, if our destinies are entwined, I see a layer of fog above their heads.” As Old Mrs. Shen spoke, she looked at the top of Yu Lili’s head. “On top of everyone’s head is each individual’s aura. Within this aura exists a good and bad fortune. In life, we all experience many trials and tribulations. Only at the end of the road can we welcome the rainbow.”

Old Mrs. Shen had a smile on her face. But, at that moment, something about the old lady seemed different from during the day. With a kind and caring demeanor, the wrinkles on her face creased as the old lady reached forward and patted Yu Lili on her hand.

“Since the first time I saw you, I knew that your destiny was entwined with mine,” she said. “Lili, the aura surrounding you complements mine very well. I had thought from the first time I saw you that you could be my long-lost granddaughter.”

Yu Lili blushed. With a gentle laugh she asked, “Wasn’t that Shen Manting...”

“That child too had a destiny that was entwined with my family’s,” Old Mrs. Shen said. “As for what sort of destiny that was to be, I couldn’t tell, so I brought her home anyway. Who would have predicted that it would turn out to be that sort of a destiny with Luo’an. What a taboo!”

Although that was what Old Mrs. Shen said, in truth, she wasn’t really infuriated. It was to be expected. In the grand scheme of things, that was pretty normal.

The Shen Family was a prominent family in the Capital. Shen Manting was an orphan. When she was given the opportunity to climb the social ladder, she followed Old Mrs. Shen without a second word and established a relationship with her.

Old Mrs. Shen had thought Yu Lili would be equally easy to persuade, but she hadn’t counted on the fact that Yu Lili would be so annoyed by her.

Yu Lili’s attitude differed greatly from what Old Mrs. Shen had expected. It had made the old lady all the more eager to bring her home. However, it was also through these various interactions that she began to discover how special Yu Lili was.

The fate of this girl was like a spring. The extent of the hardships she had suffered would one day become the extent of the happiness she would enjoy. The more she was oppressed at the moment, the greater her turnaround would be in future. She was now trodden on by everyone, but indescribable riches and glory lay ahead waiting for her.

“I’m not the same age as your long-lost granddaughter,” Yu Lili said. “I think it’s unlikely that I’m...”

She couldn’t be referring to that granddaughter, could she? Rumors had it that Old Mrs. Shen was extremely mean to Ye Qianqian’s sister. If I really turned out to be her granddaughter, wouldn’t that mean...

Old Mrs. Shen didn’t sense Yu Lili’s reservations. She patted her on her hand and said, “You and I had an entwined destiny. Regardless of whether or not we’re related by blood, I would like very much to be your friend.” At that, she looked around furtively and in a hushed whisper and asked, “Lili, what do you think of my grandson?”

The grandson she was referring to was none other than Shen Zhilie. A black cloud descended on Yu Lili’s mind. At the thought of him, Yu Lili shook her head and said, “Grandma, stop trying to be a matchmaker. I don’t feel anything toward Shen Zhilie.”

“That’s such a pity,” Old Mrs. Shen said as she patted Yu Lili’s hand once again. “I have no idea what’s so good about that Ou boy for you to like him. On top of that, that useless granddaughter of mine insists on marrying him, too. I heard that he got into a car accident. How is he now?”

When Yu Lili heard that, her expression darkened.

“Is it very serious?” Old Mrs. Shen asked. When she saw Yu Lili in the afternoon, the girl looked like she had just been sobbing hard. From the looks of things, his accident must have been serious.

With a somber expression, Yu Lili nodded her head and replied, “He’s now injured and blind.”

“Hmmm...”
