Heir?
Heir?
Upon hearing these words, Fang Hongyu felt as if she had been viciously slapped across the face.
If Tang Qiushui was indeed the descendant of the Tang family,
what did that make her?
Why!
Why did Fang Youling have to be so biased?
She had been with the Tang family for so many years, yet she was not as favored as Tang Qiushui, who had been there for only three years.
How ironic!
Feeling extremely reluctant, Fang Hongyu still had to pretend to be very happy, "Alright, Aunt, rest assured, just leave this matter to me. When the time comes, I will make sure that all the renowned families of Capital City will be present at our banquet."
She could invite influential family members from all walks of life, but she wondered whether the inexperienced Tang Qiushui would be able to hold her own!
"Then it’ll be tough on you."
After changing his clothes in the inner room and shaving his beard, Tang Shaowei came out with a smile and looked at Fang Youling, "Youling, how do I look in this suit for meeting Qiushui?"
"Handsome, very handsome." Fang Youling nodded.
It had been many years since Tang Shaowei had worn a suit. Although he had aged, his presence was still formidable. For a moment, Fang Youling seemed to see the ambitious young man he once was.
Fang Youling continued, "Secretary Wu booked the flight for three o’clock this afternoon; we will leave in half an hour. I’m going to change my clothes too."
She wanted to be in her best spirit to meet her daughter and granddaughter.
Fang Hongyu clenched her lips.
It won’t do.
She had to stop Tang Shaowei’s steps.
Soon, Fang Hongyu thought of something and turned to walk outside.
Ten minutes later, Fang Hongyu came in with a bowl of Chinese medicine.
Fang Youling had already changed her clothes.
A wine-red cheongsam.
This was the first time in many years that she had worn such an auspicious color.
"Hongyu, how do I look?" Fang Youling turned around before Fang Hongyu.
"Aunt, as the saying goes, ’don’t laugh at white hair decorated with flowers; beauty defies time,’ and you, you match very well with red."
"Really?" Fang Youling asked.
Fang Hongyu nodded, "Of course, it’s true."
After finishing her sentence, Fang Hongyu moved next to Tang Shaowei with the medicine, "Uncle, it’s time for your medicine."
"No, no, I am already better." Tang Shaowei waved his hand.
Throughout his illness, Tang Shaowei had been taking medicine almost every day.
It had reached a point where he felt nauseous just smelling the Chinese medicine.
Unnoticeably, Fang Hongyu frowned, "Uncle, you’ve just recovered from a serious illness; it’s better to take some more medicine to consolidate. What if you sitting on the plane later...."
At this point, Fang Hongyu turned to Fang Youling again, "Aunt, please persuade Uncle. How can he not take medicine when he is sick?"
The medicine today.
Tang Shaowei had to drink it!
Usually, Fang Youling would definitely urge Tang Shaowei to take his medicine.
But now that her daughter had been found.
"Medicine always contains toxins, and if your uncle doesn’t want to drink it, let’s not force him."
Tang Shaowei nodded, "Exactly, exactly, take it away."
At this moment, Fang Hongyu’s anger reached its peak.
She wanted to grab the medicine and force it down Tang Shaowei’s throat.
In the past,
before they had found Tang Qiushui, whatever she said, they would both listen without any objection.
But now,
he wouldn’t even drink the medicine!
Knock knock knock!
Just then, a knocking sound filled the air, "Director Fang, it’s time."
Fang Youling straightened her hair and, taking Tang Shaowei’s arm, "Let’s go."
"Alright."
After a few steps, Fang Youling seemed to remember something and then instructed the Butler, "Old Liu, go fetch those two items from my safe."
Although Fang Youling didn’t specify what those items were,
Fang Hongyu knew.
They were the Tang family’s heirloom Blood Jade Bracelet,
and a longevity lock.
This longevity lock was worn by Tang Qiushui as a child. Originally, Fang Youling planned to give this longevity lock to Lv Tang on her twentieth birthday.
This was actually also a symbol of the Tang family’s future heir.
But now...
Fang Youling was going to bring the longevity lock to Qing City too!
It was obvious to whom she planned to give the longevity lock.
It seemed,
their family of three had completely lost the competition for Tang Group.
No!
She was not willing to give up.
She would definitely find a way to turn the situation around.
**
Qing City.
Today Lin Guixiang was off work.
She was learning flower arrangement with Aunt Shen when Lin Wu returned.
"Xiao Wu, did you end your vacation early?" Lin Guixiang was very excited to see Lin Wu.
Lin Wu explained about Qiao Ran’s sprained ankle.
Lin Guixiang immediately put down the flowers, "Then, is he alright?"
"He will be fine after a few days of rest," Lin Wu continued, "By the way Mom, I have some good news for you."
"What good news?"
Lin Wu didn’t beat around the bush, "Grandma and Grandpa are coming to visit us."
"What?" Lin Guixiang was startled.
Soon, she came to understand, "Xiao Wu, what do you mean by that?"
Lin Wu explained the whole situation and then showed Lin Guixiang the notice for the search for a daughter.
Lin Guixiang was emotionally overwhelmed and broke into tears.
It turned out, she wasn’t an unwanted child.
It turned out she still had parents.
