Chapter 56: Revealing Zhao Jiaying's Identity
Yang Dapeng and his family sat in their seats and heard the conversation of some guests behind them.
"Hey, you say, the Ou family suddenly held such a banquet today, do they want to announce something at the banquet?"
Another said, "My guess is, wasn't there a scandal between Mr. Ou and Yang Xiaoyun from the Yang Group? Reporters have photographed them having dinner and dating outside several times. So maybe they want to announce their marriage to everyone today?"
"It's possible. I just saw that everyone from the Yang family is here. I guess they are really going to announce their marriage! It seems that the Yang Group is going to turn things around. With such a powerful backer like the Ou Group, we can't offend them in the future."
Yang Dapeng was listening to their conversation in front and became happier and happier.
The more Yang Xiaolin listened, the more jealous she became, to the point of almost exploding with jealousy.
However, another person said, "We'll know what it is soon. Don't make blind guesses here."
Half past ten.
All the guests were seated and the banquet started on time.
As the host of the banquet, Ou Zilong was the first to step onto the stage.
"Dear guests and friends, welcome to take time out of your busy schedule to attend the banquet held by our Ou family today. I think everyone must be very curious about why our Ou family is holding a banquet on this day? Can anyone guess?"
Ou Zilong kept the guests in suspense.
All the guests attending the banquet received the same invitation letter as the one received by Yang Dapeng's family. It did not specify what kind of banquet it was, so they had no idea what kind of banquet the Ou family was holding.
Shen Changfeng and his wife knew it was Zhao Jiaying's birthday because Shen Linghao told them in advance.
After hearing Ou Zilong's question, someone in the audience responded, "Are you going to announce something good?"
Ou Zilong snapped his fingers, "Bingo! Mr. Xiao is so smart, he guessed it right away. That's right, today is indeed a good thing for our Ou family. The protagonist of this good thing is my brother. Without further ado, let me invite my brother Ou Zichen to the stage and announce it to everyone."
As soon as Ou Zilong finished speaking, applause broke out from the audience.
Yang Xiaoyun was even more excited and nervous, as she was about to announce her and Ou Zichen's good news.
Ou Zichen walked up to the audience stand, took over the microphone from Ou Zilong, bowed to the guests in the audience, and then spoke slowly.
"Thank you all for attending today's banquet. My brother Ou Zilong is right. I do have something good to announce to you all here today."
Hearing this, Yang Xiaoyun's heart almost jumped out of her chest with nervousness. Soon Ou Zichen would announce their good news. She seemed to see many people congratulating her, many people fawning on her, and bowing down to her to please her.
"Recently, many people have been saying that I have a daughter. Today, I want to tell you that this is not a rumor. I, Ou Zichen, do have a daughter, and today is my daughter's fourth birthday. I am holding a party at home today, firstly to celebrate my daughter's birthday, and secondly to make my daughter's identity public."
As soon as Ou Zichen finished speaking, Zhao Jiaying walked up from the stage and came to Ou Zichen's side.
Ou Zichen squatted down and whispered to her, "Yingbao, say hello to the uncles, aunts and sisters-in-law!"
As soon as Zhao Jiaying came on stage, he immediately attracted everyone's attention. The reporters even carried their cameras and started taking pictures without paying.
Zhao Jiaying took the microphone from Ou Zichen and said in a baby voice, "Hello, uncles, aunts, and sisters-in-law. My name is Zhao Jiaying, and I am my dad's biological daughter. Thank you very much for coming to Yingbao's birthday today."
The audience began to discuss.
"So this is the purpose of the Ou family's banquet. I heard from others that Mr. Ou had a daughter before, but I didn't believe it. Now that I see this little sister, I completely believe it. She and Mr. Ou are just like two peas in a pod!"
"Yes, and this little sister is so cute and pretty, and very polite. Mr. Ou is so lucky!"
"This little girl's surname isn't Ou, could it be that she takes her mother's surname? But why didn't her mother show up?"
Yang Xiaoyun was completely confused. Wasn’t she going to announce her relationship with Ou Zichen? How come it has turned into the stinky girl’s birthday party now? Are they going to announce it later?
A sharp reporter heard that Zhao Jiaying's surname was Zhao, not Ou, and asked fearlessly: "May I ask Mr. Ou, why doesn't your daughter have your surname Ou? Does she take her mother's surname?"
Zhao Jiaying, holding the microphone, answered the question directly.
"Uncle, you are very smart, you are right, Yingbao has the same last name as Mommy!"
When the reporter saw Zhao Jiaying answered his question, Ou Zichen did not stop her and took the opportunity to continue asking questions.
"Little sister, can you tell uncle that your mommy is here today?"
Zhao Jiaying was not afraid of strangers and answered in a baby voice: "Mommy is not here. She went abroad to work and will be back in a while!"
Another reporter also asked, "Boss Ou, the mommy the little girl is talking about, is she Boss Ou's wife?"
Ou Zichen was just about to say that it was not convenient to answer this question today, but Zhao Jiaying, who was holding the microphone, immediately answered for him.
"Uncle, let me answer this question for my dad. My mom is Zhao Yunxi, she is my dad's wife and the woman my dad loves the most!"
When Yang Xiaoyun heard what Zhao Jiaying said, she was so angry that her face almost turned green. What nonsense was this little girl talking about? Ou Zichen is obviously not married, so where did his wife come from?
Yang Xiaolin was very proud because today, Yang Xiaoyun was finally slapped in the face. Without Ou Zichen as her backer, let’s see how she can still act so arrogantly at home. Go back and see how Yang Dapeng deals with her!
Sure enough, Yang Dapeng's face looked unhappy. Wasn't the marriage of Yang Xiaoyun and Ou Zichen going to be announced today? How come a daughter and a wife suddenly appeared?
Ou Zichen also felt that he was being tricked by Zhao Jiaying. When did he get a wife? But he couldn't deny it because he couldn't slap Zhao Jiaying in the face in public.
So he said nothing and made no explanation.
But in everyone's view, his not denying it was a disguised admission of the matter.
Then another reporter continued to ask, "Boss Ou, so what your daughter said is true? But wasn't there a rumor before that you and Yang Xiaoyun, the youngest daughter of the Yang Group, were a couple? There were also photos of you having dinner together and dating together that were circulated online."
