Chapter 305 Mother and Daughter Meet for the First Time

The grand and spacious banquet hall was bustling with people, gathering in groups of three or five, toasting each other, and the air was filled with the faint aroma of wine and elegant floral scents.

The stage background in front of the banquet hall was built with thousands of potted chrysanthemums to form a huge longevity character.

There was a piano on the left side of the stage, and a young female pianist played a light and cheerful tune.

Feeling two strange gazes falling on him, Tang Qi stopped and looked up at Mrs. Chen.

Mrs. Chen's body swayed slightly, and if it weren't for her daughter Chen Yue's support, she would have almost fallen to the ground.

Chen Yue noticed something was wrong with Mrs. Chen and turned around quickly, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Mrs. Chen moved her lips, but she felt so exhausted that she couldn't utter a word.

Seeing that her mother looked very bad, Chen Yue was very worried. "Are you too tired? I'll help you to have a rest."

Mrs. Chen saw Tang Qi coming over here, and she lowered her eyes in panic. Then she remembered that there were other female guests around her, and she forced a stiff smile and apologized, "I haven't slept well these past two days. I feel a little stuffy after staying here for so long. I'm going to get some fresh air. Please do as you please."

The female guests nodded and smiled in polite understanding.

Chen Yue was about to leave with Mrs. Chen, when she looked up, she saw Tang Qi who had walked up to them at some point.

Looking closely, the girl's face looks so much like her mother's.

Chen Yue was a little stunned.

Mrs. Chen stared at Tang Qi's face dully, her eyes were very complicated, with shock, panic, grief, guilt, all kinds of emotions tangled together.

Tang Qi found it funny to see Mrs. Chen looking pale, weak, and shaky.

Just the face is scary enough.

Afraid that her identity would be exposed? Chen Wenhao was shocked that his stepmother looked very similar to Tang Qi, when he saw Tang Qi, who had just come in, walking straight towards his stepmother.

He subconsciously tried to go over, but was tripped by several guests who came over to drink with him.

Mrs. Chen's eyes were red and her lips trembled slightly, "You, you..."

Two more guests came in from outside the door, one male and one female. They were former clients of the Chen family and were not from the imperial capital. They came to the imperial capital from other places specifically to attend Chen Yuanhong's birthday party.

The male guest recognized Mrs. Chen and came over to greet her with a smile on his face. "It's been a few years since we last met. Mrs. Chen is still as charming as ever."

Mrs. Chen responded with a forced smile.

The male guest's gaze shifted to Tang Qi, who was wearing a long black gauze dress. His eyes were amazed. "This must be your daughter, right? She's grown up so much now? She's really beautiful, elegant and refined, even more stunning than Madam Chen."

This made Mrs. Chen and Chen Yue very embarrassed.

Chen Yue doesn't look bad, but she is still young and her facial features have not fully developed. Moreover, she looks nothing like Tang Shan or Chen Yuanhong. Instead, she looks more like Old Man Chen.

Seeing that the mother and daughter were too embarrassed to speak, Tang Qi glanced at the male guest coldly, "Sir, you are mistaken. The person opposite is Miss Chen Yue, the daughter of the Chen family."

The male guest was surprised.

He looked at Chen Yue and Tang Qi several times, with a puzzled look on his face.

Obviously, the girl in the black dress looks more like Mrs. Chen’s daughter than Chen Yue.

Chen Yue's face flushed red as she introduced herself to the male guest: "Hello, I'm Chen Yue, and my father is Chen Yuanhong."

The male guest was also very embarrassed. He laughed it off and explained that his eyesight was not good. He found an excuse and left quickly.

The three of them were left looking at each other.

Mrs. Chen looked at Tang Qi with excitement and some panic, not knowing what to say.

Chen Yue pulled Mrs. Chen and said, "Mom, this is the girl I saw in the parking lot of Fuxing Mall last time."

After that, she asked Tang Qi curiously, "Are you also a guest attending my father's birthday party? What's your name?"

Tang Qi glanced at her half-sister and smiled slightly, "My last name is Tang."

Chen Yue suddenly realized, her eyes sparkling with excitement, "The last time I saw you at Fuxing Shopping Mall, you looked like my mother!"

Good evening~
