Chapter 93: The Suspicious Fang Lilan   In the beginning, Long Shuhai seemed to care for her elder brother, Shaohua, her second sister, Manxue, and herself equally.

He also appeared to be extremely respectful and protective of her mother, Fang Lilan.

Once, during a family meeting, her second uncle even declared that since all of the Long family’s elders had passed away, he would replace her father to care for the Fang family for the rest of their lives.

But she never felt that Long Shuhai treated her like a daughter. Instead, he genuinely seemed to dote on her second sister. It was as though Manxue was his true, blood-related daughter.

Long Shuhai did not only enter the Fang family. He also stepped into the Fang Group and began working there. He started off as a normal employee and after three years, he became a deputy manager.

And her elder brother, who had been the original deputy manager, was now locked up in jail.

Although the Fang Group was named after the Fang family, it had actually been single-handedly built up by her father, Long Yifan, thirty years ago. Her father had kept the company’s name as Fang Group out of deep love for her mother.

Fang Lilan was originally a housewife who never interfered in company matters. However, seven years ago, she suddenly expressed her interest in working in the Fang Group and even asked to become the finance manager. Her father gave into her wishes because of his love for her.

Her mother made some mistakes in the beginning. It was gradually, with her father’s support, that she ascended the ranks and came to hold onto her current position, firmly.

Prior to that, her father had independently operated the company for years. Despite Fang Xinxin’s engagement with Bai Qinghao, he never took a single benefit from the Bai family. It was after her mother’s entrance into the company that the Fang Group began borrowing her name, to obtain various projects and funding from Bai Qinghao.

Her father did not like her mother ‘begging’ the Bai family. As a result, they often argued. However, her father always gave in eventually.

Due to the support from Bai Qinghao, the Fang group slowly became stronger.

Three years ago, when her mother was able to hold her own in the company, her father fell into a coma. Her mother, thus, became the director of the Fang Group.

Right now, the entire Fang Group was in her mother’s and second uncle’s hands.

Fang Xinxin thought back to seven years ago. Before her mother entered the company, she had actually loved and cherished her very much.

At that time, Fang Xinxin used to feel that Fang Lilan loved her the most and cared for her elder brother and second sister in equal measure.

After her mother entered the company, she gradually changed.

Fang Manxue grew to become the most loved, while the other two were neglected.

She often even felt that Long Shuhai, Fang Lilan and Fang Manxue were like a true family.

Her mother had changed drastically in the past seven years. Fang Xinxin had even once suspected that she was replaced by someone else.

Before her father went into a coma, she often mentioned her thoughts to him. Long Yifan had also found it suspicious and secretly took Fang Lilan’s hair to conduct a DNA test.

However, the results revealed that Fang Lilan and Fang Xinxin were blood related mother and daughter.

Her mother found out about the DNA test, leading to a huge fight with her father. She announced that if Long Yifan did not believe in her, she would rather kill herself right there and then. Thus, her father gave in and was forced to swear that he would never suspect her again.

In her previous life, Fang Xinxin’s suspicion against Fang Lilan had been squashed by the DNA test and she didn’t pursue the matter further.

However, in this life, the seed of suspicion had long blossomed in her heart.
