Ji family.
Ji Jingyao was holding a golden invitation, which invited the Ji family to attend a welcome banquet on December 24.
"Brother, Yanshan sent me an invitation. Should I go?" Ji Jingyao's sister, Ji Rongzhen, asked with anticipation. The invitation in her hand was different from the others; it was a hand-drawn illustration by Wen Yanshan himself, adorned with a touch of childish charm. Ji Rongzhen was actually Ji Jingyao's sixteen-year-old stepsister. Her biological mother remarried Ji Jingyao's biological father when she was five, and she had been raised in the Ji family since childhood. Even though they weren't related by blood, she was treated like the eldest daughter of the Ji family.
Ji Jingyao has a cold personality, but he still loves his sister very much. "If you want to go, go."
Ji Rongzhen nodded. She quite liked Wen Yanshan. When she first entered the industry, many people looked down on her and bullied her because she was just her brother's stepsister. It was Wen Yanshan who stood up for her. When her brother learned about it, he ruthlessly retaliated against the family that bullied her. After that, no one dared to be sarcastic in her presence.
"Is my brother going?"
Ji Jingyao's eyes fell on the post, his eyes slightly cold, "Go, the head of the Wen family has some friendship with my father, for his sake, I should also make this trip."
At the Shenglong Hotel, he was forcibly kissed by an unknown person, who even threw money at him to humiliate him. Ji Jingyao used his power to investigate the identity of the person, but due to the destruction of the surveillance camera, he could not find any relevant evidence. He could only use the process of elimination to find the suspect.
Shi Miao is a strong suspect. According to the investigation, she was tricked by Xie Xin and sent to Yang Bin's bed. However, judging by the fact that Yang Bin was hit on the head that night, it seems that the other party did not succeed.
Yang Bin had been plagued by bad luck lately. Besides the car accident on the way to the hospital that night, his company was subsequently reported by the finance department for tax evasion, several major orders were snatched away, and bank loan procedures were fraught with problems. It was rumored that Yang Bin's company was in danger of losing its funding. If not properly addressed, it would not only be severely damaged but even face the risk of bankruptcy.
It is said that Shi Miao is a master of metaphysics with extraordinary talent. I wonder if Yang Bin’s experience has anything to do with her.
After Ji Jingyao decided to go, he gave the Wen family a definite reply.
Wen Chenghan had been prepared for his refusal, but he hadn't expected him to actually come. He was the most mysterious tycoon in the industry, rarely seen at banquets. Last year, he didn't even show up for Ji Jingyao's grandmother's 70th birthday. Partly because of his distant relationship with her family, and partly because of his personality. He was truly giving the Wen family face.
Of course, Wen Chenghan was very happy that Ji Jingyao was willing to come.
On the other hand, the whereabouts of the four nurses who ran abroad were also found. Three of them were found by them, and the other one was more cunning and found an opportunity to escape.
After some manipulation, the three nurses who were arrested all confessed the truth. There were two people who bribed them to do this: Tao Xiaran (one nurse even kept the video evidence) and Zheng Jiaming. Zheng Jiaming had been working at Zhou Enterprises for seventeen years and was now the Deputy Director of the Finance Department. He also had another identity: Tao Xiaran's cousin. Zheng Jiaming only had a college diploma, so he wouldn't have been able to join the company. However, because he had saved Zhou Liheng before, Zhou Liheng made an exception and made him a full-time employee.
Although he didn't want to think badly of his brother-in-law, Wen Chenghan was not sure whether his brother-in-law knew about it.
Over the years, his brother-in-law has loved Manman even more than his two sons. He is worried that even if the truth is revealed, he will choose to let Miaomiao suffer for the sake of Manman's face.
Wen Chenghan certainly loves Manman, but the happiness Manman has enjoyed over the years is built on Miaomiao's flesh and blood. Miaomiao has been wronged for so many years, and she can't continue to be wronged. This is what Manman owes Miaomiao.
No matter what, as Miaomiao's uncle, he must ensure that his niece has a legitimate identity.
Humph, I guess he doesn't know. Many people in the circle are full of malice towards Miaomiao, speculating that she used underhanded means to get to the top.
A lot of relevant evidence has been collected, and next they have to plan Miaomiao's return carefully.
…
Department of Art, Z University.
"Manman, can we really go over there?" Zhou Man's roommate couldn't hide his excitement.
Zhou Man smiled sweetly, "Of course, you are my best friends in school." She sent invitations to several roommates, inviting them to attend the Wen family banquet on the 24th.
"I'll take you shopping for some suitable clothes this weekend. Come home with me on the 24th and let my makeup artist give you a nice make-up. You all have great facial features, and with a little makeup you'll be stunning beauties."
Zhou Man was always generous and amiable in the dormitory, and with her roommates' help promoting her, she had a very good reputation at school. Spending so little money to gain a good reputation was a bargain, and Zhou Man felt it was a good deal. Whenever someone at school slandered her, her roommates would rush to the rescue faster than anyone else. They didn't have the image burden of a wealthy daughter like her, and Zhou Man benefited greatly from this.
"Manman, you're so kind. We used to think that rich girls were all princesses with princess syndrome and difficult to get along with. You've broken our stereotype."
Zhou Man smiled a little embarrassedly, "I'm just lucky to have a good birth. In other aspects, I'm not as good as you. In front of you, I have nothing to be proud of."
Her roommates were praising her so much that they almost praised her as a beautiful and kind-hearted fairy. Zhou Man's depressed mood suddenly became much better.
At this time, a new message came in on her phone.
Zhou Man looked down and saw that someone had applied for her WeChat account.
I don’t know who leaked her private number?
Zhou Man clicked to reject, but unexpectedly, a new application came in a minute later with a line of notes.
【I have clues about your biological mother】
There was a flash of displeasure in Zhou Man's eyes. Everyone knew that her mother was Wen Ying, the eldest daughter of the Wen family.
She continued to refuse.
New applications are coming again.
【Your biological mother is not Wen Ying.】
Her eyes were fixed on the words on the screen. These words hit her head so hard that her eyes hurt.
Nonsense, who else could her biological mother be if not Wen Ying? When her mother gave birth to her, there were many people watching.
Who exactly wants to drive a wedge between mother and daughter?
She was so angry that her body was shaking, and she wanted to pull out the person behind it and give him a good scolding.
When she was about to refuse, something suddenly popped up in her mind.
She looked neither like her mother nor her father. Nor did she look like her two brothers, one of whom looked more like her father and the other more like her mother. She had asked before, but her father had only said she looked like her deceased aunt and told her not to dwell on it.
She obviously shouldn't think about it, but at this moment, she suddenly had the urge to explore it.
Zhou Man pursed her lips and finally accepted the other party's friend request.
Well, she just wanted to know who was behind it, and she was definitely not doubting her background.
