Chapter 181 Don't Be Jealous
Chapter 181 Don't Be Jealous
The cemetery is in the suburbs. The night in the suburbs is not as brightly lit as in the city, but more like a giant black python lurking in the mountains and forests.
But such a dark and lonely road suddenly became lively.
Countless luxury cars drove past one after another, and the traffic flow continued for a long time.
The reporter squatting on the roadside to take pictures couldn't help but sigh: "It's so spectacular!"
After that, it was arranged to make the headlines that night.
However, the public is not very enthusiastic about this matter, and netizens just make a few comments about it and then forget about it.
It would be interesting if someone was fighting over family property, or someone was supporting a model or celebrity and getting a divorce...
The funeral (wedding) was held first, and the news of the banquet was released later.
After Mr. An heard the news, his first reaction was that they could not go.
My second reaction was to think of An Ying.
"Why did Dad come home so early today?"
Mr. An hurried back home and was met with the astonished gazes of his children.
"Where's An Ying?" he asked.
"What did An Ying do wrong?" they asked curiously, with a hint of gloating in their eyes.
An Ying rushed over after hearing the noise and heard her father ask, "Where's the invitation?"
"Yes, it's in the book."
"Go get it."
Mr. An carefully read the invitation again and said, "Yes, this is the Zhang family's invitation, and it was sent out earlier than others."
“Obviously, this is a unique treat.”
"But why... only you were invited?" Mr. An slowly raised his head, his expression frozen.
An Ying's brother and sister's expressions also froze.
On the day of the banquet, An Ying enjoyed the rare emperor-level treatment at home.
The clothes were picked by my father and the jewelry was picked by my mother.
Her brothers and sisters enthusiastically saw her off to the car.
Why? An Ying couldn't figure it out.
An Ying lowered her head and stared at the name on the invitation.
Who is this “Zhang Ruoshui” who signed his name?
*
"Ms. Zhang."
"Ms. Zhang?"
Li Xiaoya tilted his head, then realized that he was being called.
She looked at the waiter.
The waiter smiled and said, "Your grandfather asked us to bring you a glass of milk."
Li Xiaoya nodded and took it.
Her name should be Zhang Ruoshui now.
Although I’m still a little bit uncomfortable with the new name.
The name her mother gave her before was based on the surname "Li". When combined with the surname "Zhang", it lacked rhythm and did not sound very nice.
In the end, it was grandpa who decided to give the new name.
It doesn’t matter how many names she has… In the future she can be like Komnenos, with many fake names.
After drinking all the milk in one breath, she leaned over the railing and watched as the number of guests downstairs gradually increased...
Finally, it was time for her to go down.
"Let me solemnly introduce to you my granddaughter, my dear granddaughter, Xi Nian's daughter..." Mr. Zhang stood on the stage and extended his hand to her.
An Ying was squeezed in the crowd and her eyes widened instantly.
The reporters in the crowd were also dumbfounded.
"Isn't that Li Xiaoya?"
"Who? Who is Li Xiaoya?" This was a puzzled voice from other reporters who rarely covered variety shows.
"Damn, the one from the show 'Swap Life', how come she is the Zhang family's child?"
Some wealthy wives in the Jinshi circle were also puzzled: "It looks a little familiar."
"Hey, isn't this the one from that show Ning Heng and the others were on..."
"Young Master Sheng, did you... pick up the Zhang family's biological child?"
Now everyone turned their heads and stared at Sheng Yuxiao.
Sheng Yuxiao didn't say anything, just stared at the little girl on the stage who was the center of everyone's attention.
A little happy, but also a little sad.
It was as if the treasure that I had treasured was seen by everyone...
Seeing that Sheng Yuxiao ignored them, the others did not feel unhappy. They just asked their children in a low voice: "Why don't you also participate in the show?"
"The Zhang family doesn't have another child to pick up, so you should take a rest."
"Yeah, what a pity."
Some people were talking, some were taking selfies.
The jeweler's daughter took a selfie and posted it on the social media platform.
[Huh? Why is there Lai Siu-ya in the photo? ]
Netizens are still paying attention to her, and are still immersed in the last wave of legal news about the arrest of Li Jiang...
The jeweler's daughter prefers watching foreign variety shows and doesn't know much about domestic variety shows, so she responded to the fans with a question mark.
[This is it. This is Lai Siu-ya.]
Netizens circled it enthusiastically.
[What is Li Xiaoya? This is the granddaughter of the Zhang family. I heard that she finally got recognized as her relative. Today, she is holding a family recognition banquet, which is very large in scale.]
The jeweler's daughter's words immediately caused a huge uproar.
Soon netizens began to wonder what kind of family the Zhang family was.
This search brought up news about the funeral from a few days ago, and the grand scene of that day once again came into the public eye.
[Is this a TV series I’m following? Holy shit! There’s actually an ending!]
[Oh my god, is the Zhang family so awesome? Fortunately I recognized them.]
[All the celebrities in Tsu City are here...]
[Who still remembers that in the beginning, there were always people scolding Li Xiaoya for fawning on Young Master Sheng and Young Master Qin, saying that she was a sticky candy! Bah! Come out and give you a slap in the face! ]
[Great! I heard that the head of Lijia Village and his son were both sentenced to death. The bad guys are punished, and the good guys are rewarded...]
The heated discussions among netizens quickly made the news a hot topic.
So much so that the number of views of the first season of "Swap Lives" suddenly began to surge again.
Wei Xuanming was also flipping through the photos synchronized on the Internet at this time.
"Bad people are punished, good people are rewarded... that's how it should be."
He said this softly, and suddenly started coughing uncontrollably.
The old friend fell to the bedside upon hearing this and said disapprovingly: "You shouldn't use your phone anymore."
"Watch for another three minutes."
"no!"
"One minute..."
"No!"
"Haven't you always wanted to see what my heir looks like?"
"Ha, you mean your granddaughter? You've always been reluctant to show her to me..."
Wei Xuanming turned over the phone screen to show him.
His old friend was silent for a moment: "...The news clearly says that she is Zhang's child. Don't just think that someone else's child is yours because she's cute!"
Wei Xuanming smiled and did not argue.
That's a good idea...
Little Duck, she can stand in the sun openly, the child of the Zhang family, the heir of the Zhang family...
"Okay, I won't watch it anymore." Wei Xuanming was about to return the phone when it suddenly rang.
He looked down.
It turned out to be the duck calling.
"Hello." He hesitated and picked up the phone.
"Grandpa, can you come home? I'm on my way home."
Wei Xuanming was stunned: "Shouldn't you..."
Stay at Zhang’s house?
On the other end of the phone, the duckling was carrying a bulging schoolbag filled with various gifts.
She said, "Don't be jealous, I'll be home soon!"
Wei Xuanming raised his hand and pressed his eye sockets: "Little Duck, you..."
Wouldn't it be too tiring for a child to inherit two families?
But Wei Xuanming couldn't help but have delusions at this moment.
At the other end, the car stopped.
Xiaoya got out of the car with her phone. She walked in and the servant was surprised to see her. It seemed that they had never expected her to come back...
"Grandpa? Why aren't you here yet?" she asked.
"I..." Wei Xuanming didn't know how to answer.
At this time, a strange voice sounded in the yard: "Miss Zhang?"
The duckling tilted its head and looked along the direction.
It’s… Old Mrs. Feng and her granddaughter Xing Siyun.
"Why is Miss Zhang here?" asked Old Mrs. Feng with a twinkle in her eyes.
Obviously, they all saw the news!
But the duckling thought this question was very strange.
"This is my home, why can't I come?"
"Miss Zhang, isn't the Zhang family your home?"
