Chapter 9 The Unexpected Return

The day Jian Xi came back.

Our whole family got up early.

I put away all our family photos in the house, afraid Jian Xi would feel a sense of loss if she saw them.

I also placed the welcome cake I specially customized for her in the most prominent spot in the living room, ensuring she would see it as soon as she entered.

Everything was ready.

At nine sharp.

The doorbell rang.

Mom, with tears in her eyes, couldn't hold back and went forward to open the door herself.

I held my breath in nervousness, stretched my neck, and waited eagerly.

As a result, the first thing that caught my eye was a pair of shiny red-soled black leather shoes.

I was stunned.

My gaze moved upward.

It was well-tailored black trousers wrapping long legs.

Further up.

It was a superior figure with broad shoulders and narrow waist.

Then, just like that, a tall and outstanding-looking man stepped into the living room against the morning light.

His cool gaze swept across the room, paused on me for five seconds, and finally landed on my parents.

"Dad, Mom, I'm back."

As soon as the words fell.

The smile on my face froze instantly. The welcome cake in my hand dropped to the ground with a smack, shattering into pieces—

"What the heck! Why are you a guy?!"

No way, someone tell me why my sweet and soft real heiress turned into a guy?!!!
