The courtyard of the Huo family villa was meticulously decorated, adorned with flowers and fluttering ribbons.
The elegant dining table was laden with exquisite delicacies, exuding an enticing aroma.
The guests, dressed in their finest attire, chatted with smiles on their faces, as if they were in a dreamlike scene.
Sunlight streamed onto the pool, creating a shimmering effect and adding a vibrant touch to the overall atmosphere.
"Ningning, Xinxin, are you two done yet?" Zhao Qiuying asked from outside the room.
"Alright, alright," Huo Jinxin's voice came from inside the door.
Huo Jinning wore a gorgeous black dress, the material of which was as smooth as silk, and the skirt cascaded down like a waterfall, gently brushing the ground.
The neckline is decorated with delicate lace, the sleeves have a fluffy design, and a sparkling belt is tied at the waist, perfectly outlining her slender waist.
Wearing this gorgeous black dress, she looked like a goddess emerging from the darkness.
Huo Jinxin was completely different. She wore a light pink dress with delicate lace embellishments on the bodice and sparkling sequins at the neckline, adding a touch of luxury.
A pink satin belt cinched her waist, accentuating her slender figure. The dress featured a long train that trailed on the ground.
This gift perfectly showcases Huo Jinxin's gentleness and grace.
Looking at her daughters, each with their own distinct style, yet all beautiful and charming, Zhao Qiuying felt a surge of pride.
"You two look absolutely stunning today," Zhao Qiuying said with delight.
"Mom, you are the most beautiful." Huo Jinning and Huo Jinxin responded in unison.
As soon as they finished speaking, the two sisters smiled at each other, their eyes filled with affection and understanding for one another.
Then, hand in hand, they walked down the stairs together.
"As some of you may already know, the reason I invited you all here today is to introduce you to my long-lost youngest daughter, Huo Jinning."
"She was unfortunately stolen shortly after birth, and after many hardships, she was finally found recently."
“Back then, my wife was weak after giving birth to twins, and with only one nanny, it was difficult to take care of two children, which led to Ningning being stranded in a foreign land for many years.”
"Now, our family is finally reunited." Huo Shan introduced Huo Jinning beside him while explaining the reason for holding the banquet to everyone.
"Chairman Fu and his wife are truly blessed! To have such beautiful and charming twin sisters is truly wonderful. Congratulations!"
"Yes, congratulations! Chairman Fu is truly a winner in life, with each of his children being outstanding. It's truly enviable!"
"Chairman Fu, your happy and fulfilling family is truly enviable! These two sisters are the icing on the cake."
"Chairman Fu, you really make us outsiders extremely jealous!"
...
Everyone offered their praise, creating an exceptionally enthusiastic atmosphere that brought the entire event to a climax.
People from the Huo family's old residence were also present. Huo Yi and Chu An brought generous gifts to express their gratitude to Huo Jinning. If it weren't for her, they would probably have fallen into the trap of villains, leading to the destruction of their family.
In addition, Zhao's maternal grandparents and his two maternal uncles were also present at the scene.
Among the invited guests, about half of Beijing's wealthy and powerful figures flocked to the event.
Huo Shan personally led Huo Jinning and Huo Jinxin, introducing them one by one to the people in the circle. This action fully demonstrated the Huo family's high regard for Huo Jinning.
Huo Jinning greeted everyone with a smile, along with her family, until her face was stiff from smiling so much.
Fu Qinian, who came to the banquet, didn't even have a chance to go up to her; he could only silently watch her from the corner.
This was the first time he had seen Huo Jinning dressed so elegantly. Her stunning beauty was so dazzling that it was impossible to take one's eyes off her.
The young masters from various families also began to get restless and set their sights on the two of them.
Among these people were the powerful Qian and Sun families.
Two other people who surprised Huo Jinning also appeared at the scene.
The first one was Sun Yueru, who came with her nephew Sun Quan. She came to thank Huo Jinning so that she could extricate herself from the marriage in time.
The other person was the woman who appeared at the auction last time—Wang Nian.
Because of Huo Jinning's reminder, she went to have a paternity test done on the child, and the result was just as Huo Jinning had said: the child was indeed not her biological child.
After finding her real child, she resolutely divorced the unfaithful man and raised the child alone.
Upon hearing that the Huo family was hosting a banquet specifically for Huo Jinning, she came with her younger brother Wang Bin, intending to express her gratitude to Huo Jinning in person.
After a while, Huo Jinning finally had some free time, and Wang Bin led Wang Nian forward.
"Ningning," Wang Bin called out first.
"Brother Wang," Huo Jinning greeted him politely.
"Ningning, do you still remember me?" Wang Nian interjected from the side.
Huo Jinning looked at it carefully, then shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't remember.
"At the last auction, you reminded me that my child had been switched. Do you remember?"
"Oh, I remember now. It was you!" Huo Jinning immediately recalled after being reminded by her.
"I came here specifically to thank you. If it weren't for you, I might still be kept in the dark, and my child might also be..." Wang Nian said gratefully.
"Thank you, Ningning, otherwise my sister might have been harmed by them." Wang Bin broke out in a cold sweat when he thought about their vicious plan.
Huo Jinning smiled somewhat embarrassedly. She hadn't expected that her unintentional act would actually be effective.
She had only casually mentioned it.
Who would have thought that the other party would actually believe it?
However, seeing Wang Nian and Wang Bin thank her so sincerely warmed her heart.
I never expected that someone I casually helped would turn out to be the older sister of my brother's good friend. What a coincidence! I'm also glad I mentioned it back then.
"Brother Wang, Sister Wang, you're too kind! Actually, the successful resolution of this problem is all thanks to Sister Wang's trust in me! Otherwise, I'm afraid we wouldn't have had such a good outcome..."
The three chatted for a while longer, the atmosphere was harmonious, and laughter filled the air.
However, at that moment, a series of urgent shouts interrupted their conversation.
It turned out that Zhao Qiuying was looking for Huo Jinning to introduce her to the Madam's circle.
Despite feeling a little reluctant, Huo Jinning politely said goodbye to the two of them and then turned to leave.
As she left, that familiar fake smile reappeared on her face.
