[She is like a ball of fire, burning my heart. — Tan Zixi]
—————
Xunmi sneered. Today was her birthday, but her father didn't come to take her downstairs himself. Instead, he wanted her to go downstairs by herself. Did he really think she was stupid?
Searching, searching, why didn't you see it then? It was so obvious!
In large families, it is customary for the head of the family to personally accompany his children on the day they reach adulthood. The first purpose is to tell outsiders that this is the person I love and cherish, and the second is to prove that this person will be the future heir.
Putting on high heels, the extreme black paired with the evil red makes her look even more charming.
You are eighteen years old, the best years of your life, how can you let it go to waste?
She was wearing a fiery red evening gown, revealing her snow-white skin, and her hair was adorned with a few small, round pearls, looking simple and casual.
Xunmi stunned the whole audience as soon as she appeared. Countless eyes of admiration, appreciation, and hidden jealousy instantly focused on her.
Instead, the heroine, who was brought by the head of the Qin family and dressed in a snow-white gauze skirt, became a background board.
Xunmi was very satisfied with this situation, and the smile on the corner of his lips became even bigger.
Her already extremely beautiful face was enhanced by her confidence in finding herself a winner in life.
Coupled with Miss Qin's noble and proud character, she becomes even more elegant and intoxicating.
Her peach blossom eyes drooped slightly as she looked at her father who was standing in the crowd looking at her. She walked down the stairs calmly, with light lotus steps, and stood in front of the head of the Qin family.
I'm always looking for someone who wants you to be like that the more you don't want me to be like that.
She could tell from the text that the head of the Qin family was only training his daughter as a tool.
The original owner's mother died of heavy bleeding when giving birth to the original owner, and it was Qin Huaise's mother who caused all this.
If Qin Huaise's mother hadn't run to the original owner's mother to beg for help, she would have been pregnant with the Qin family head's child no matter what.
It would not have stimulated the original owner's mother to have a miscarriage, give birth prematurely, and eventually lose her life.
Xunmi could understand the original owner's action of causing a scene at the banquet. No one would be nice to the person who indirectly killed his mother.
"Father is so partial. Today is my birthday."
"You won't come to pick me up. No, tell me how you're going to compensate me."
Xunmi pouted, with a proud look on her face that said, "I'm unhappy, come and comfort me."
The noble ladies around her couldn't help but feel their maternal instincts overflowing, and they wanted to give her all their love.
Perhaps he didn't expect Xunmi to react like this. Qin Sheng was surprised and the words he had prepared were choked on his lips.
Xunmi had no intention of giving these two people a chance to act, and her eyes slipped to the woman in white next to Qin Sheng.
A very innocent and pure question: "Father, who is this beautiful lady?"
"This is the first time I've seen her. She's not my future stepmother, is she?"
I am disgusted by you guys so much that I let you hurt the original owner (Qin Xunmi) so much, hum╭(╯^╰)╮
She remembered that the original plot was that the original owner saw her father and rushed over happily.
But before she could say anything, her scumbag father spoke first and said that this was your biological sister Qin Huaise.
I told her to take good care of her in the future, and asked her to take care of her younger sister.
The original owner was immediately furious and turned hostile on the spot.
The illegitimate daughter showed weakness at the right time, pretending to be pitiful and acting like a fake white lotus. This pushed the original owner to explode again, and escalated the conflict to a white-hot stage.
She is not as stupid as the original owner. The subtle jealous look just now came from this kind sister.
Qin Sheng's face darkened with embarrassment, he didn't know how to tell Xunmi.
Qin Huaise on the side lowered her head, and her bangs slipped down to hide the resentment and unwillingness that flashed in her eyes.
When she looked up again, her face looked pitiful, as if someone had bullied her.
But before she could finish her expression, Xunmi spoke again.
"Miss, I don't think I've bullied you. What do you mean by that expression?"
"If I said anything wrong just now, I apologize." Xunmi's face was full of undisguised disgust, and he reacted directly by taking a step back and moving away.
If someone else did it, such a direct and unconcealed reaction would become the target of public criticism.
But if Miss Qin does this, she will be forgiven by everyone.
Why? That must have happened eighteen years ago, everyone knows it.
The mistress pretended to be pitiful to gain sympathy and get promoted, causing the original wife to have a premature birth and die from heavy bleeding. People still talk about it today, which shows how big the incident was.
Ever since Miss Qin encountered a similar incident, she hated people pretending to be pitiful in front of her the most.
She even said that she hated people who pretended to be pitiful, regardless of whether they were innocent or not. If you don't like her, don't associate with her.
Although this can easily attract criticism for her, most people still like this straightforward approach.
If she likes you, she likes you. If she hates you, she hates you. At least she won’t play tricks on you behind your back.
So after listening to Xunmi's words, everyone's first reaction was not to blame Xunmi.
Instead, he wanted to see what kind of person the person was who dared to act pitiful in front of Miss Qin.
Qin Sheng also noticed that the atmosphere around him was not right. Today was originally the coming-of-age ceremony prepared for Qin Xunmi.
He also wanted to use this opportunity to announce Huai Se's return and let everyone know that the Qin family has a second young lady.
Qin Huaise was stunned. She didn't understand why everyone reacted like this.
"Sister, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have come."
"I shouldn't have listened to what my father said. Please forgive me, sister. I'm sorry. I'm leaving now."
As the saying goes, three parts are intention and seven parts are intention. Qin Huaise has grasped this very accurately over the years.
She looked so pitiful, with tears about to fall from her eyes. Her small and pretty face, delicate temperament, and white dress gave people the feeling of little white flowers fluttering in the wind.
But I have to say that this look can really arouse a man's desire to protect.
Look, there are already some people present who are ready to take action.
However, the ladies immediately understood what was meant by those words and immediately revealed their implicit contempt.
It turns out that this is the daughter of the mistress back then. I never realized she looks just like her mother.
In large families, there are usually lovers, illegitimate children, and so on.
Therefore, these noble ladies are particularly disgusted with illegitimate children, regardless of whether they have experienced it or not.
Xunmi froze in place, her beautiful peach blossom eyes wide open.
He stared at the person who wanted to turn around and leave but was stopped by Qin Sheng.
His voice trembled a little: "Father, tell me, who is this young lady?"
"Why does she call me sister? I don't remember my noble mother having a second child."
He tried hard to suppress the panic on his face, but he couldn't suppress the bitterness in his tone.
The expectation in those watery peach blossom eyes was so obvious, so obvious that it made people feel so distressed.
The man who just stepped into the hall saw the fiery little man with hurt eyes but a proud character.
