Qian Chengfeng used sweet words and flattery to persuade Ye Lan to become his girlfriend, promising her all sorts of benefits, with the aim of getting Ye Lan to willingly do things for him.
However, according to the original plot, Ye Lan should have betrayed and left Qian Chengfeng later on, but the current situation is completely different.
All these changes stemmed from the appearance of Wei Jinning, a key figure.
It was her intervention that caused a change in the attitudes of Zhao Qiuying and Huo Jinxin, which in turn led to the meeting between Qian Chengfeng and Ye Lan.
Sometimes fate is just that mysterious; what's meant to happen will happen eventually, it's just a matter of sooner or later.
The Qian family, as one of the four great families of the capital, was renowned and its influence was not to be underestimated. In addition, the Huo family, the Zhao family, and the Sun family were the other three families that were equally famous.
The Qian and Huo families were originally just old friends, with their relationship primarily consisting of business partnerships. However, by the time of Qian Chengfeng's generation, their relationship had deepened further.
Qian Chengfeng and Huo Nanchu grew up together and had a close relationship, which their elders were happy to see.
...
"Ningning, would you like to change your name, or..." Huo Shan asked.
"Dad, I'll take this name!"
"This is the name you and Mom gave me, and I like it very much." Wei Jinning was Wei Jinning in her previous life; it was the same name, just with a different surname.
"That's fine too, whatever you say." Huo Shan was somewhat disappointed. He still hoped his daughter could change her surname to Huo, but he respected her decision.
Huo Shan's daughter doesn't want to change her surname to Huo, alas...
Zhao Qiuying's daughter doesn't want to change her surname to Huo, sigh...
Huo Jinxin's younger sister doesn't want to change her surname to Huo, sigh...
Perhaps because the three of them were being too obvious, Wei Jinning immediately sensed that something was wrong.
[Hey, what's wrong with these three? They look like wilted eggplants.]
[Isn't it just a matter of the name?]
[Should I ask them what they'd like my name to be?]
[Isn't Huo Jinning a pretty good name?]
[Wasn't Jinning the name they gave me?]
[Do you regret it now?]
[For the sake of my future comfortable life, I guess I should listen to them!]
"Dad, how about..." Wei Jinning was interrupted by Huo Shan before she could finish speaking.
“Ningning! Daddy also thinks Huo Jinning is a pretty good name. Look at your sister’s name, Huo Jinxin. Your names clearly show that you two are sisters! Isn’t that wonderful?” Huo Shan realized that he might have misunderstood his daughter’s meaning.
He had initially thought that Wei Jinning still wanted to keep the surname Wei, but seeing that she had no such intention, he breathed a sigh of relief and revealed a barely perceptible smile, clearly in a much better mood.
“Yes! Your dad makes a lot of sense. Let’s name her Huo Jinning, it sounds really nice.” Zhao Qiuying echoed, indicating her agreement with her husband’s opinion.
"Well, let's name my sister Huo Jinning! That way, when we go out together, people will know we're sisters just by hearing our names." Huo Jinxin's eyes sparkled, and she smiled brightly, saying with great joy.
Are these three people performing Sichuan opera face-changing?
[Why are you happy again?]
I don't understand, I just don't understand.
[This is fine. I still prefer the name Jinning; it's easier to pronounce. Changing the surname doesn't matter.]
[As long as they're happy.]
"Ningning, I'll take you to the relevant department to change your name later, and we'll also transfer your household registration to our family's address," Huo Shan said earnestly.
“Okay.” Wei Jinning nodded obediently.
Then, Huo Shan suggested, "How about we discuss it again and hold a grand family reunion banquet for you, so that everyone can know that my precious daughter has been found?"
“That’s a great idea!” Zhao Qiuying agreed. “And this family reunion banquet must be a grand and lively affair.”
"Yes, that way everyone will know that I have a younger sister now!" Huo Jinxin also became excited.
"That's right, we need to let others know that the apple of the Huo family's eye has finally returned."
Just then, someone suddenly mentioned two other people who hadn't returned home yet:
"It's a pity that we don't know when those two rascals, the second and third sons, will be back. We'll probably have to wait for them a while longer..."
At that moment, Huo Zimo, who was being talked about by everyone, sneezed loudly: "Achoo... Someone must be secretly missing me. It seems I'm popular wherever I go."
Meanwhile, Huo Chengyu, far away from home, suddenly sneezed and muttered, "Achoo... Oh no, I think I didn't wear enough clothes today. Am I going to catch a cold? I'd better go back and take some medicine to prevent it."
......
Meanwhile, the three of them were still enthusiastically discussing the various details of the banquet, completely forgetting about Wei Jinning who had been left out.
[Does this have nothing to do with me?]
Why didn't you ask for my opinion?
[It's better not to ask; it saves me the trouble of thinking about it.]
[Another day without any worries.]
The three of them then stopped talking.
"Oh right, I forgot to ask, Ningning, what do you want to do?" Zhao Qiuying took Wei Jinning's hand.
“I’m fine with anything. But, when you adopted my sister, did many people know about it?” Wei Jinning asked Huo Jinxin.
Wei Jinning did not see a detailed introduction to this matter in the book. Since Wei Jinning did not return in the original book, the matter of Huo Jinxin being adopted was not mentioned.
“Um, this…” Zhao Qiuying hesitated, unsure how to explain.
