"Who are you?"
Ye Hongyi, seeing that she was an unfamiliar face, assumed she was a young lady from some wealthy family.
Xia Zhenzhen helped him to a chair and poured him a glass of water. "Grandpa Ye, I am Shihan's cousin. I work as a postpartum nanny at my brother-in-law's house. I had heard a lot about your legendary deeds before I came here and I admire you very much, but I have never had the chance to meet you."
Upon hearing that she was just a postpartum nanny, the initial admiration in Ye Hongyi's eyes gradually turned into indifference.
I just saw that she was wearing haute couture, and I thought she was a rich young lady. I never expected that she was just a postpartum nanny.
Xia Zhenzhen also noticed the obvious change in Grandpa Ye's eyes. She bit her lip and said softly, "Grandpa Ye, I still have to help my cousin take care of the baby, so I'll go first. Please rest here for a while."
Ye Hongyi nodded to her indifferently, his expression completely unlike the warmth he had shown when they first met.
Xia Zhenzhen turned and left, her eyes filled with resentment and unwillingness. What was that old man looking at her like that? Was he looking down on her?
He smelled like an old man; if it weren't for his status, she wouldn't have bothered helping him. And he even dared to look down on her?
She had even considered using a cheat system just now. If she used a cheat system, this old man would definitely obey her like a dog.
However, the cheat ability can only work on one person at a time, and that old geezer isn't worth her wasting her time on.
She wanted to use this precious opportunity on Ye Sinian, or on someone even more valuable.
Just then, a tall man walked towards them.
The man wore well-fitting suit trousers and a simple white shirt with the collar slightly open, revealing his well-shaped collarbone.
His features were exquisite and handsome, and his long, narrow eyes looked at people with a coldness, yet they were also dark, like an abyss that drew people in unconsciously.
Xia Zhenzhen subconsciously stopped in her tracks, quickly straightened her clothes, and put on a gentle and polite smile.
The beige dress she wore today was a haute couture piece taken from Xia Shihhan's wardrobe. The cinched waist design accentuated her slender figure.
When she arrived, she specially used Xia Shih-Han's cosmetics to put on exquisite makeup. As soon as she entered the door, many men cast glances at her, both openly and secretly.
Thinking of this, she stood still, straightened her back, and smiled, waiting for the man to take the initiative to greet her.
However, the man walked right past her without even glancing at her.
Just as the man was about to turn into the banquet hall, Xia Zhenzhen was unwilling to give up such a high-quality man, so she deliberately screamed and fell to the ground.
Sure enough, upon hearing the sound, the man stopped, turned around, and glanced at her indifferently, but did not move.
Xia Zhenzhen gritted her teeth secretly. She had already fallen, shouldn't he have come over and helped her up?
"Sir, I think I've twisted my ankle. Could you please help me up?"
She spoke softly, then lowered her eyelashes, looking nervous and uneasy.
Shen Yanqing frowned and glanced at him, then instructed Da Tou, who was following behind him, "Give him a hand."
After saying that, he turned and left without looking back.
Xia Zhenzhen looked up in astonishment, only managing to catch a glimpse of the tall figure disappearing through the doorway.
"Miss, would you like me to help you up?"
Da Tou squatted down in front of Xia Zhenzhen, frowning. How many pounds of perfume had this woman sprayed on? It was giving him a headache.
Xia Zhenzhen pinched her thigh hard, then looked up with teary eyes.
When Da Tou looked down and met her tear-filled eyes, he was so frightened that he took several steps back. "No, you're not trying to scam me, are you?"
Xia Zhenzhen: "..." Isn't she supposed to be pitiful? How come these two, master and servant, are so clueless about romance?
She opened her mouth, about to say something, when she saw the man in black in front of her grab a passing waiter and say, "This lady has fallen, could you please help her up?"
After saying that, he disappeared in a flash, leaving behind a bewildered waiter and a resentful Xia Zhenzhen.
Why isn't Zhenzhen back yet?
Xia Shih-Han and Ye Ssu-Nian went to toast the guests, while Sun Yue-Hua held her child with a worried expression.
She had been wanting to go to the restroom for a while, but Xia Zhenzhen, who was supposed to be helping her take care of the child, had disappeared since she arrived.
Surrounded by guests who had come to celebrate, she was worried about leaving her child alone in the stroller, so she could only hold the child and pace back and forth, her face sweating with anxiety.
"Sister Sun, what's wrong with you?"
This is the scene that Gu Baiwei saw when she arrived, and she couldn't help but ask her out of curiosity.
Sun Yuehua felt like she had seen a savior and hurriedly whispered, "Miss Gu, could you please take care of the child for a moment? I'm going to the restroom and will be right back."
Seeing her anxious expression, Gu Baiwei quickly took the child from her and looked around, not finding Xia Zhenzhen: "Where's Zhenzhen?"
"I don't know. I haven't seen her since I arrived, Miss Gu. I can't hold it in any longer. Please help me."
After Sun Yuehua finished speaking, she rushed to the bathroom as if she were in a great hurry, looking like she really needed to go.
Gu Baiwei carried the child and circled around before finally finding Xia Zhenzhen in a corner.
She was chatting enthusiastically with a young girl, looking very proud.
Gu Baiwei frowned. She was a postpartum nanny, and her main job was to take care of children. But at the banquet, she didn't look after the children and was chatting with others. What kind of talk was that?
It seems I'll have to have a serious talk with Shih-Han and Niannian about this cousin's future.
She was thinking about leaving when she overheard their conversation.
"It's not that my brother-in-law appreciates my abilities; he insists I work for his company..."
Gu Baiwei stopped in her tracks. Nian Nian insisted on arranging a nanny job for Xia Zhenzhen? This Xia Zhenzhen was really good at bragging! She only graduated from junior high school; what kind of job could Nian Nian possibly arrange for her? Cleaning?
"Miss Xia is truly young and accomplished. Your outfit must be expensive, right? It's clearly haute couture."
The girl opposite looked at Xia Zhenzhen's clothes with envy.
Gu Baiwei followed the girl's gaze and discovered that the dress was the limited edition J&A dress that she had given to Xia Shihan some time ago.
Xia Shih-Han was looking for this dress this morning, but she ended up wearing it.
This Xia Zhenzhen not only lies all the time, but she also steals things; it's really going too far.
"It's alright, only a little over a million, but it's not a big deal. I have several in my closet."
Xia Zhenzhen looked smug, secretly planning to wear another pale yellow dress from Xia Shihhan's walk-in closet next time. After all, Xia Shihhan had plenty of dresses, so missing one or two wouldn't be noticeable.
"Are you sure this dress is only worth a little over a million?"
Just as she was feeling smug, a clear and pleasant female voice suddenly broke in from the side.
Xia Zhenzhen looked up and saw Gu Baiwei standing not far away, holding a child, her eyes cold as she looked at her.
