Editor: Millman97

"Why would I give up on such a good opportunity? I鈥檓 already in my twilight years and this is my only hope left, if you can help me fulfil it, of course I will agree to it."

"Thank you, I will do my best to help you locate your daughter!" Xinghe promised seriously. Touched by her sincerity, an idea cropped up in Elder Shen鈥檚 mind.

He studied Xinghe closely and couldn鈥檛 help but ask, "Child, who else is there in your family? Are your parents still around?"

Xinghe was mildly startled; she had no idea why Elder Shen would ask this. However, she answered truthfully, "My father has been dead for years and my mother has disappeared for almost as long, until now, I have no clue where she is. However, I do have an uncle and cousin with me."

Elder Shen was inwardly overjoyed when he heard this. Her current situation allowed him to propose the following.

"Since both of your parents are not around, how about this? I鈥檒l adopt you as my step granddaughter," Elder Shen suggested with a smile. Xinghe and Mubai were shocked!

"Why?" Xinghe was surprised.

Elder Shen replied smilingly, "Didn鈥檛 you say you want to represent our Shen family to go Country R? Then you鈥檒l need a valid identity, if you鈥檙e my step granddaughter, then it will be authentic, wouldn鈥檛 you agree? Of course, it鈥檚 also my personal interest to take you as my granddaughter. You are so capable and have helped us fulfil our revenge, so we鈥檙e all deeply appreciative of your help and all of us adore you. You have also saved the president鈥檚 life so I鈥檓 sure Xiao Yu is more than willing to take you as her stepdaughter."

Xinghe was startled. "But why would someone as important as Madam President take me as her stepdaughter?"

Elder Shen understood her reservation and shook his head to say. "She would love to have you as her stepdaughter. After all, Xiao Yu has no children of her own and she will just be a normal civilian after the president retires. It鈥檚 her gain taking you as her stepdaughter. If you agree, then this thing is done! So please agree, all of us really like you and I鈥檓 serious with this proposal."

"..." Xinghe didn鈥檛 know what to say and she unconsciously turned to look at Mubai.

Mubai smiled happily. "You should agree! This is a good thing; wouldn鈥檛 you like to have more family to love you?"

Xinghe鈥檚 gaze shuddered slightly. That鈥檚 right, isn鈥檛 that what I鈥檓 looking for?

Furthermore, after spending some time with the Shen family, she realized she felt indescribably close to them. Therefore, she wasn鈥檛 averse to being adopted by them.

"Okay, I agree!" Xinghe nodded and promised seriously.

"Good, good!" Elder Shen laughed happily. "From today onwards, you will be part of the Shen family, you are Shen Houde鈥檚 granddaughter! If anyone dares to bully you in the future, tell Grandpa and I will help you take care of them!"

Xinghe didn鈥檛 think he would be so kind to her. She was touched, but beyond that, it was a complicated mess of feelings in her heart. However, she promised that if the Shen family really treated her well and sincerely, she wouldn鈥檛 mind responding in kind. Having more family wasn鈥檛 a bad thing after all.

Just like that, Xinghe became Elder Shen鈥檚 step granddaughter.

Elder Shen immediately informed Madam President of this news and she was overjoyed to take Xinghe as her stepdaughter.
