However, his expression was indifferent at the moment, and the cold aura he exuded made them dare not approach him, so they could only watch quietly.

"Why hasn't she come yet!" Ning Yifan was waiting anxiously. If it wasn't for Bai Yulin's birthday and he needed Shen Yueyan by his side and to appear together, he would not have been willing to send her back. He had clearly sent her back in the early morning, so why did he miss her so much now?

He stared at the door eagerly, almost seeing through it.

At this time he saw someone coming in. He ran over excitedly, but stopped in disappointment.

"Tsk, why are you guys here?"

Ning Yifan curled his lips in disappointment and teased the two people in front of him.

"What else? Young Master Ning, you seem disappointed to see us?"

Xia Penny held Ye Chen's arm and teased him.

"Hey, who is this? So dazzling!"

Ning Yifan couldn't help but joked as he looked at Xia Penny, who was unusually reserved.

She was wearing an exquisite pink dress that Ye Chen had carefully prepared for her, and Ye Chen matched it with a bow tie of the same color. The two of them looked like a pair of golden boy and jade girl, and were very well matched.

"It would be best if Xiao Ning comes later, and you can say the same..."

As a result, the three of them were interrupted by someone before they could say a few words.

"Ye Chen!"

The three of them turned around when they heard the sound.

It turned out to be Jin Xunmei...

She was dressed in a particularly plain and elegant manner today, and was extremely low-key. She was graceful and pleasing to the eye. Compared to the other daughters who were more high-profile than the other, one could not help but sigh that this was a true lady from a noble family...

"Hello, Xiao Xia Xia!" Jin Xunmei came over and greeted Xia Penny with a smile.

Faced with Jin Xunmei's goodwill, Xia Peini was a little overwhelmed, but could only respond politely: "Hello..."

The last time she was interrogated at the Ye family, Jin Xunmei was sitting next to Ye's mother. It was obvious that she was the Ye family's preferred daughter-in-law. She was so beautiful and generous, and she was a good match for Ye Chen. She was more or less insecure.

Sensing Xia Penny's uneasiness, Ye Chen held her hand tightly, turned around and asked, "Why are you here?"

Jin Xunmei calmly replied, "My parents brought me here. After all, today's event isn't just about Uncle Bai's birthday, so I had to come and join in the fun..."

After saying that, he winked at Ye Chen.

At this time, the door slowly opened, and amid warm applause, Tian Meizhen, holding Bai Yulin's arm, with Bai Siyu and Shen Yueyan on her left and right, slowly entered the venue with graceful music.

Ning Yifan, who had been looking forward to it for a long time, saw Shen Yueyan appear, and his eyes lit up.

His Xiao Ning looks so beautiful today. The simple and elegant white slim dress suits her temperament very well, and most importantly, it matches his white suit today.

He would never admit that he was the one who insisted on seeing Shen Yueyan's dress and had to match her dress.

"Wow, Xiaoning is so beautiful!" Xia Penny couldn't help but admire.

Ning Yifan waved to her excitedly, but Shen Yueyan pretended not to see it and stood there very dignifiedly.

She stood there calmly, looking at the audience, but suddenly saw... her aunt?

She looked carefully and found that it was really her aunt!

But standing next to my aunt were Ning Changyuan and Zhang Wan.

Shen Lu took a few steps back and made a "hush" gesture to her. Shen Yueyan blinked knowingly and then looked away.

In this highly anticipated occasion, Shen Yueyan's eyes showed a hint of loneliness. If nothing unexpected happened, in such an occasion, the people standing next to her should be her own parents. The applause and attention belonged to her - Shen Yueyan, the daughter of the Shen family, and not the Bai family's goddaughter who was obtained through trickery...

And all this was thanks to Ning Changyuan, who was chatting and laughing in the audience.

She looked over there, her narrowed eyes containing a thousand-year-old ice. Smile, laugh as much as you can. She wanted him to see with his own eyes how she avenged her parents for the Shen family...

Bai Yulin was speaking on the stage, but in a corner below the stage, a pair of eyes were closely watching every move on the stage.

"That's about it. Now, I want to announce something..."

Bai Yulin stopped and signaled Tian Meizhen beside him to pull Bai Siyu and Shen Yueyan to his side. The family stood together, and Bai Yulin continued to talk about their encounter with Shen Yueyan. After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but praise Shen Yueyan again and again.

"Wang Ning has been very kind to our family, so today, on my birthday, my wife and I have decided... to adopt Wang Ning as our daughter. From now on, she and Bai Siyu will be treated as sisters, without distinction!"

After he finished speaking, there was warm applause from the audience. The four people on the stage raised their glasses to toast the guests, and Bai Yulin drank it all in one gulp.

And the eyes in the dark below the stage were still fixed on the stage, playing with a remote control in their hands, their fingers brushing against the buttons on it intentionally or unintentionally...

"Congratulations, Chairman Bai!"

Ye Jiantao raised his glass to toast Bai Yulin, and there were other bosses around him.

Sure enough, someone noticed that Ye Chen had two girls holding his arms, one on each side.

Ye Jiantao felt a little embarrassed, so he called Ye Chen over.

The three of them were like conjoined twins, each holding onto Ye Chen in the middle tightly and not letting go.

Ye Chen has a lot of grievances that he can't express.

After Ye Chen greeted her, Jin Xunmei also greeted her before he could be introduced.

His graceful and elegant appearance was very much loved by these elders.

Seeing them being so comfortable in such an occasion, Xia Peini, who had never seen such a scene, suddenly felt a little dispirited. It was no wonder that Ye's parents would object. They were not from the same world and had received different education since childhood. Even if her family ran a small company, it was still considered inferior in the eyes of the Ye family and was not a good match. She herself was already a little shaken in her heart, and her hand holding Ye Chen's arm loosened a little.
