Bai Qinghuan was immediately amused. It turned out that Bai Qingzhi, who seemed so glamorous on the surface, was actually not well-liked by everyone!
She used to think Bai Qingzhi was lucky!
After the mother and daughter went downstairs, Bai Qingzhi had already returned to her room. At this time, the Bai family members all gathered around to ask about her well-being.
Bai Qinghuan sat in the middle and slowly grew proud. So what if Bai Qingzhi was powerful? Wasn't she still the princess of this family?
Soon, she will drive Bai Qingzhi out of the Bai family and take everything from her!
Lost in her own imagination, Bai Qinghuan unconsciously laughed.
Evening arrived quickly, and Bai Qinghuan was a little hungry, so she went downstairs to ask when dinner would be served.
But the kitchen was packed full, with several chefs busy at work.
Bai's mother was sitting on the sofa watching a melodramatic TV series. Bai Qinghuan curiously walked over and asked if there were any guests that night.
“My dear daughter, didn’t you say you like Xiao Yuan? I’ve invited him over tonight, and of course, I’ve also invited his parents, so our whole family won’t feel awkward around him.” Mother Bai replied lovingly.
Bai Qinghuan lowered her head shyly, her eyes brimming with pride.
Meanwhile, Bai Qingzhi, whom she thought was hiding in her room crying, was actually having a long phone conversation with Xiao Yuan.
Listening to Xiao Yuan's rambling, Bai Qingzhi pouted unhappily.
"Why do you act like an old man?" Bai Qingzhi muttered softly.
Xiao Yuan didn't know when he would be able to find out the identity of the fake, so he could only keep telling Zhizhi to be careful.
Hearing Zhizhi's complaints, Xiao Yuan smiled helplessly, and finally reluctantly said "See you tonight" before hanging up the phone.
The assistant, who had been standing behind Xiao Yuan for almost an hour, breathed a huge sigh of relief when he saw his boss finally hang up the phone.
Fortunately, this document isn't urgent.
When Xiao's mother heard that the Bai family had invited her whole family to dinner, she happily started making preparations, while Xiao's father helplessly watched his wife's back.
Xiao's mother was straightforward and couldn't keep things to herself, so no one told her that Bai Qinghuan was a fake.
Mr. Xiao could already imagine the scene that night, and he couldn't help but silently light a candle for his eldest son.
As soon as the moon came out, the Xiao family's car entered the Bai family's courtyard. Bai's mother and Xiao's father were classmates and knew each other quite well.
Without much pretense of politeness, the two families sat down at the dining table.
Bai Qingzhi and Xiao Yuan faced each other, with Bai Qinghuan sitting next to her.
Upon seeing Bai Qingzhi, Xiao's mother immediately took her hand, her eyes filled with affection.
If she initially liked Bai Qingzhi because Xiao Yuan liked her, then now it's because she genuinely thinks this young girl is quite good.
Even if Qingzhi doesn't end up with her son, she will still treat her like her own daughter.
Xiao Yuan truly lived up to his mother's reputation as Xiao's son; every time he saw Bai Qingzhi, he would bring her a gift.
Holding the latest Miss Hao bracelet in her hand, Bai Qingzhi had a conflicted expression.
Bai Qinghuan watched this scene with a hint of jealousy.
"Miss Hao only has one of this style. I'll ask tomorrow if there are any other styles to give to Miss Bai." Although she was puzzled, Mrs. Xiao still smiled and spoke, seeing through Bai Qinghuan's hidden emotions.
The older sister of Qingzhi I knew before wasn't like this.
"Auntie, you're too kind. I just thought this bracelet was pretty and would suit Qingzhi's wrist perfectly," Bai Qinghuan quickly replied with a smile, suppressing her own thoughts.
However, his eyes remained fixed on the bracelet, and he mentally estimated its value.
"It's alright, I'll take you to the mall when I have time. Miss Hao probably has other designs as well," Bai's mother comforted Bai Qinghuan by patting her hand.
Bai Qinghuan gave her mother a wronged look at just the right moment.
Xiao Yuan's face was cold, but his eyes still unconsciously glanced at Zhizhi.
For the first time, I felt that my men were useless; it had been almost two days and they still hadn't figured out the fake's identity!
At the dinner table, Xiao's mother and Bai's mother were chatting, while the two fathers were discussing company matters.
The children, on the other hand, ate their own food.
Xiao's mother felt that something was off. She looked at Xiao Yuan and then at Bai Qingzhi.
She kicked her eldest son, then gestured to Xiao Yuan to serve Qingzhi some food.
But to my surprise, Xiao Yuan completely ignored him!
Meanwhile, Bai Qinghuan kept finding opportunities to talk to Xiao Yuan and even served him food from time to time.
Although Xiao Yuan didn't eat a single bite and threw it all away, Xiao's mother still felt there was something wrong.
"Isn't Xiao Yuan being a bit too impolite?" Bai's mother clearly saw this scene and immediately spoke up in displeasure.
"Mom, it's okay. Maybe Xiao Yuan doesn't like what I put on his plate," Bai Qinghuan quickly added.
Bai Qingzhi felt excited; the real show was finally here tonight!
Get into position, ready to jump into the story.
Sure enough, Bai's mother became even angrier upon hearing her daughter's words, and immediately put down her chopsticks and questioned her:
"Does the Xiao family think that my Bai family's daughter is not good enough for you? Or do you think that Qinghuan, who grew up in a small place, is not worthy of entering your family?"
This statement revealed quite a lot of information, leaving Xiao's mother completely bewildered.
Her eyes darted between the three children, and based on her years of experience watching melodramatic soap operas, she quickly deduced what had happened.
Bai Qinghuan wanted to say something, but her mother grabbed her hand.
She really didn't want to listen to this fake's spiel anymore; Bai's mother was afraid she might accidentally vomit.
That's really too low-level.
Xiao Yuan's face remained expressionless, but he slightly raised his chin as he answered:
“Auntie, I have always liked Zhizhi. Even if Zhizhi rejects me, I can never be with Miss Bai.”
Bai Qingzhi's heart pounded wildly as she looked at Xiao Yuan. Yes, that's it! Reject her firmly!
Seeing her younger sister's pathetic state, Bai Qingyu kicked her hard under the table.
Xiao's mother finally had a chance to speak, and immediately stood up as well.
"Yes, yes, our Xiao family has always wanted to marry Qingzhi."
Father Bai was also ready to join the battle, and slammed his hand on the table.
"What do you think your Xiao family is? Our Bai family's biological daughter is not even as good as an adopted daughter?"
Bai Qingzhi was just waiting for those words, and immediately knew that her turn to shine had arrived.
She forced back her tears, then looked at her father with red eyes and asked:
"Dad, what do you mean by this? Didn't you say I'll always be your daughter?"
Even if it was a lie, Bai's father couldn't bear to say what he had originally planned, and he couldn't bear to see Bai Qingzhi crying.
It got stuck in a daze.
Bai's mother also turned her head away without replying. She was joking, but she couldn't bring herself to say anything harsh to her little darling.
Just then, Bai Qingyu suddenly stood up, pointed at Bai Qingzhi, and loudly replied:
"The Bai family gave you an identity, but you can't forget it! Qinghuan is our own sister, and you have to hand over what she wants!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Qingyu felt two burning gazes fixed on her.
He looked at his two older brothers, puzzled. Was he wrong?
Bai Qinghuan almost burst out laughing when she saw Bai Qingzhi being attacked by everyone.
