As soon as Meng Qinian received the invitation, he rushed straight to the hospital. Before he could even read the contents, he heard about it and hurriedly went over to take a look.
After reading what was written inside, he immediately burst out: "Big cousin, when did you guys get a dad?"
Feng Yuli lowered his eyes slightly and glanced at him indifferently. Meng Qinian instantly suppressed his smile and raised his hand to his mouth as if making a zipping motion: "I won't say anything more, I'll shut up."
Feng Yuli looked down at the invitation in his hand, a cold smile curling his thin lips: "The Jiang family really has a clever plan."
Wanting to return to the Jiang family in a satisfactory way, but unwilling to acknowledge her identity as Bai Wenyin's daughter, she simply devised a scheme to transfer Nan Yuanman's identity to Jiang Juncheng.
This way, others won't ask about Nan Yuanman's background, which would bring up Bai Wenyin, the "disgrace" of the Jiang family, and it will also elevate Nan Yuanman's status, silencing outsiders.
The only ones who were injured were Nan Yuanman and Bai Wenyin.
Meng Qinian wasn't stupid; after thinking it over carefully, he realized what was going on and immediately became furious: "The Jiang family is truly shameless! Cousin, we can't delay any longer! Tomorrow, we must take my cousin away! We can't leave her in the Jiang family any longer!"
The Jiang family simply doesn't treat my cousin and her mother like human beings!
If you don't want to acknowledge someone else, registering them under someone else's name and giving her an extra father out of thin air—who are you insulting?!
"Okay." Feng Yuli tossed the invitation on the table, got up and walked out: "Go see how Feng Langqing has packed his things. Tomorrow, we'll go and pick up Yuanman."
He doesn't want to suddenly have another father.
Besides, Kang Jun-seung isn't qualified to be his father.
Meng Qinian: "Okay!"
-
At this time, Jiang Juncheng, who was lying in a hospital bed with his leg in a sling to recuperate, was unaware that he had inexplicably gained a daughter.
It wasn't until he received congratulatory calls from various partners all morning that he realized something was wrong.
He asked the caregiver to bring over the invitation that had been delivered from his home that day, so he could take a look. When he saw the contents, his vision went black, and he pinched his brow as he dialed Jiang Tianzong's number: "Dad, why did you register Nan Yuanman under my name?"
"What's wrong? A niece is a daughter too. You uncles are her fathers. Besides, Yuanyuan is quite cute. Isn't it good to get a daughter for free?"
Jiang Tianzong's gentle, smiling voice came from the other end of the phone, tinged with a hint of doubt.
“You know perfectly well that the person I like is…” Jiang Juncheng began subconsciously, but stopped abruptly just as he was about to utter the name.
He took a deep breath and said seriously, "Dad, I don't agree."
"Doesn't Jiang Lixuan really like Yuanman? Can't we register Yuanman under his name?"
"I'm still young, and I don't want to have another daughter out of nowhere."
If Yao Yao and Xin Xin found out that Yuanman had become his daughter, they would probably make a scene again.
Xinxin will probably be sad for a long time.
“You’re in your thirties, still young?” Jiang Tianzong smiled, his voice gentle but brooking no argument: “No, Juncheng, the completion must be registered under your name.”
"I have already sent out the invitations, and this matter cannot be changed."
"You have to crawl back to attend tomorrow's family reunion banquet, even if you have to, understand?"
He warned gently, "Jun-seung, don't ruin my plans."
Jiang Juncheng lowered his eyes, his hand gripping the phone tightened slightly, and his thin lips pursed: "...I understand, I will attend."
The atmosphere in the ward became somber after the phone call ended.
Jiang Juncheng took several deep breaths to suppress the surging anger and resentment in his heart, but at that moment, his phone vibrated again.
Seeing the name "Yaoyao" on the screen, Jiang Juncheng's eyes softened as he answered the phone: "Yaoyao, what's wrong?"
Jiang Yueyao, holding Jiang Xinxin's hand, stood awkwardly at the front desk and said, "Big brother, could you transfer some money to me?"
Jiang Yueyao never expected Jiang Lixuan to be so ruthless, saying he wouldn't be her brother and actually taking back all the privileges he had given her.
All her supplementary cards were frozen and deactivated. Coincidentally, she only took the supplementary card given to her by Jiang Lixuan when she went out this time. When she went to pay for the clothes, she found that the card could not be swiped, and she could only call Jiang Juncheng for help in frustration.
Jiang Juncheng responded, without asking what she wanted the money for, and simply transferred five million to her.
Jiang Yueyao breathed a sigh of relief after paying for the dress, but a faint sense of embarrassment still lingered on her face.
She felt even more resentful and hated Jiang Lixuan.
Jiang Yueyao clenched her fists, her eyes dark and gloomy. She would never forget the humiliation of today, and she would not let Jiang Lixuan and Nan Yuanman off the hook!
-
Nan Yuanman and Jiang Lixuan ate and drank their fill outside before heading home.
When Nan Yuanman returned to the Jiang family home, she subconsciously looked up at the study and breathed a sigh of relief when she didn't see the dangerous man she had met that morning.
Jiang Lixuan didn't notice her little movements. He took her hand and went upstairs, chattering away, "Butler Li has already renovated your room and replaced the furniture. It just needs to air out a bit."
"You can sleep with me tonight, or you can sleep in the guest room. The guest room has been prepared for you."
As Jiang Lixuan spoke, he glanced at her every now and then, cleared his throat, and asked, "Yuanman, how are you planning to sleep tonight?"
"I'm going to sleep in the guest room," Nan Yuanman said with a yawn, hugging her small handbag in a cute, childlike voice.
Jiang Lixuan looked disappointed: "Fine..."
After escorting Nan Yuanman to her guest room, Jiang Lixuan brought up the clothes he had bought that day and hung them in the wardrobe so she could choose which ones to wear tomorrow.
After hanging up the clothes, he prepared a bath for Nan Yuanman. After she finished bathing, he dried her hair before reluctantly returning to his own room.
After Jiang Lixuan left, Nan Yuanman opened the coffin lid and let Gou Dan and his grandfather out to get some fresh air.
As soon as Grandpa Nan came out, he ran to the window, swiftly pulled open the curtains, and stretched his head to absorb the moonlight streaming in.
Dog Egg wandered around curiously, observing Nan Yuanman's bedroom.
Nan Yuanman excitedly ran to the wardrobe, took out the fluorescent green dress, put it on, and shouted in her little voice, "Grandpa, Gou Dan, look! Yuanman bought a pretty dress today!"
The man, whose redness had faded slightly, turned around at the sound. At first glance, he couldn't see the baby; he could only see a patch of green.
Only upon second glance did he notice the cub dressed like a little cabbage, and the man fell silent: "..."
Who bought this dress? It has such terrible taste!!
Grandpa Nan clapped his hands enthusiastically, praising, "Look! Good, good!"
Zhuangzhuang and Xiaocao clapped along enthusiastically, showing their support and giving him face.
Nan Yuanman's clear black and white eyes sparkled as she looked expectantly at Gou Dan.
Dog Egg: "..."
He insincerely complimented, "Beautiful! Very tasteful!"
The little girl was delighted. She happily twirled around in place, clutching her skirt, and then excitedly held onto Grandpa Nan's hand, jumping around and dancing some unknown dance with him.
Dog Egg subtly shifted his gaze; hmm... it was a bit cringe-worthy.
"By the way, Grandpa." Nan Yuanman, tired from jumping around, sat on the carpet and snuggled up to Grandpa Nan's legs as if they were in the countryside. She looked up at him and said, "Tomorrow, the Jiang family will hold a family reunion banquet for me."
"Do you think I can take this opportunity to let Mom go back to the Jiang family?"
