Chapter 552 Xiang Family Banquet
She took it carefully and thanked him.
Ye Jinqian stared at her for a moment.
"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?" She touched her face.
"Don't thank me anymore."
The man pulled her to sit down.
"Eat well, and you will recover well."
The table was full of dishes, all of which were her favorites.
But she is not picky about food and likes to eat a lot.
~
Time flies.
Xiang Shaoan felt more and more uneasy.
On the eve of the banquet, Xia Ning made a special phone call to Zhao Yuanyuan to greet her and asked her to come to the banquet.
Xiang Shaoan happened to see this scene.
Withholding the invitation would not stop Zhao Yuanyuan at all.
She had to find another way.
Just at this time, she received a call from Dong Shuai.
She wanted to hang up several times, but the man kept calling.
She went to the yard and sat on a wicker chair.
Answer the phone.
As early summer approaches, flowers and plants that repel mosquitoes are placed on the rattan table.
"How dare you call?" she said in a bad tone.
Dong Shuai quickly apologized with a smile: "An An, I have good news to tell you!"
"What news?"
"It was wrong of me to lie to you before, but I found out these few days that the Zhao Lan you mentioned seems to be seriously ill!"
Sensing that the other party was not impatient, he continued, "I saw her go to the hospital a few days ago in the afternoon. I happened to pass by, so I followed her and saw her talking to the doctor about something like... terminal cancer."
"Are you sure?" Xiang Shaoan's heart tightened, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
"I'm sure!"
"good."
Zhao Yuanyuan couldn't have cancer, so the one with advanced cancer was Zhao Lan.
As long as Zhao Lan gets sick tomorrow night, Zhao Yuanyuan will not be able to attend the banquet with peace of mind, and she will be able to successfully inherit the Xiang family. Even if her parents recognize her in the future, that is a matter for the future.
Isn’t it easy to make a patient with advanced cancer sick?
She smiled coldly and looked up at the starry sky.
The Xiang couple invited a lot of people to their wedding anniversary. Basically all the powerful people they had made friends with in the imperial capital were there, including the Xiang family’s senior executives.
Zhao Yuanyuan received a new invitation and attended the event with Ye Jinqian.
Xiang Shaoan was putting on makeup in the room. When she heard from people below that Ye Jinmo didn't come, she felt a little relieved.
As long as this young lady doesn't come, Zhao Yuanyuan will be a soft persimmon that can be bullied by anyone.
Her evening dress today was a French haute couture piece, and her crown and jewelry all showed how much the Xiang family doted on their daughter.
"My lady looks so beautiful today!"
"Yeah yeah!"
The compliment from the makeup artist next to her made her feel proud.
The self in the mirror has exquisite and beautiful makeup and noble temperament.
There is a jade longevity lock around her neck.
downstairs.
Everyone was silent for a moment.
Everyone looked towards the stairs.
Xiang Shaoan walked down slowly in a gorgeous dress.
Everyone gasped.
So beautiful!
She stood at the stairs and looked down, looking down from above, and everyone's eyes were on her.
This feels so great!
She walked down slowly, and Xia Ning looked at her daughter lovingly.
"Is this Miss Xiang? She's so beautiful!"
"As expected of the Xiang family's daughter!"
Xia Ning stepped forward and stood with her daughter.
At this time, some rich ladies began to whisper.
"Have you heard the rumors a while ago?"
"That one!"
"Look at the young lady and her mother. They don't look alike, and they don't seem to look like the father either!"
The women standing in the back discussed in a low voice.
Xia Ning has cute facial features, so when she reached middle age, she looked very young because of good maintenance and the characteristics of her facial features.
But Xiang Shaoan's looks are more delicate and southern, with slightly long eyes, which is not cute at all.
More good temperament.
Xia Ning couldn't hear the whispers because everyone around her was praising her daughter.
She looked particularly proud.
With a husband who loves her and an excellent daughter, this family is enviable no matter how you look at it.
Many noble ladies also came forward to inquire about Xiang Shaoan's marriage, wanting to introduce their sons to him.
No one talked about Zheng Weidong's engagement with her before. After all, he was no longer the heir to the Zheng family. In addition, there was a lot of fuss about an orphan girl, so their own child had a chance.
For a moment, everyone surrounded the mother and daughter.
Xiang Shaoan blushed but remained calm and composed.
"Today is my parents' wedding anniversary, and they are the stars!"
Everyone was laughing and talking.
Little did he know that in a corner where no one was paying attention, a maid sneaked into Xiang Shaoan's room.
There was no one in the room and all the servants were busy on the first floor.
She looked around and began to rummage through the drawers.
Pay attention to the door from time to time to see if there are footsteps.
Finally, the safe was found in the cabinet.
She quickly pulled out a thin piece of transparent plastic paper from her pocket. Under the light and shadow, there were traces of fingerprints on the paper.
She pressed the plastic paper on the fingerprint lock and said, "Click," the safe opened.
There were two brocade boxes inside. She took out another longevity lock from the box, then restored the safe to its original state and quietly left the room.
The other side.
As soon as Ye Jinqian and Zhao Yuanyuan got out of the car, a man in black walked towards them in the parking lot and stuffed the longevity lock into Zhao Yuanyuan's hand.
There was also a note inside.
[The eldest lady’s arrangement.] 】
She and Ye Jinqian looked at each other and understood.
It was made by Jinmo.
The cool feeling in her hand instantly sobered her up, and she put the pendant into her handbag.
In the auditorium on the first floor.
Xia Ning kept looking at the door, but Zhao Yuanyuan didn't come.
She felt somewhat lost.
But she didn't care too much and went on stage with Xiang Dafu.
"Thank you all for coming to the dinner. My husband and I have something to announce to everyone tonight."
Xia Ning waved, gave Shao An a sweet smile, and walked onto the stage step by step.
"We declare that Xiang Shaoan is the heir of the Xiang family!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd burst into warm applause.
Just then, two people appeared at the gate.
Xia Ning saw them first.
"Yuanyuan and Professor Ye are here."
Hearing the sound, everyone looked over.
The man was tall and lean, and looked particularly elegant in a dark blue suit. The girl next to him was wearing a light blue dress, which made her look elegant and noble.
The point is, that face!
The ladies who were discussing Xiang Shaoan's appearance just now were shocked!
Xia Ning pulled Xiang Shaoan to greet them.
Xiang Dafu also stepped down happily.
"Yuanyuan, we are all waiting for you!"
Xia Ning walked up to Zhao Yuanyuan and took her hand affectionately.
At this point, everyone realized that these two people looked alike!
Especially those eyes, they look like they were carved from the same mold.
A noblewoman at the back exclaimed: "This young lady and Madam Xiang really look like mother and daughter!"
After he finished speaking, Xiang Shaoan's expression changed, and he turned around and looked coldly towards the source of the sound.
Xia Ning quickly let go of Zhao Yuanyuan's hand and tried to smooth things over: "Yuanyuan has a kind face. We kind-looking people all look alike!"
After hearing this, the ladies at the back didn't know what to say.
"It's fate that we look alike, Yuanyuan, why don't you be my goddaughter!"
