When they heard that Yu Manxi was coming, everyone looked outside.

Her return to the He family was controversial. Some people felt that it was only right and proper. After all, they were family. Even though they had abandoned her before, it was still an objective condition at the time. Later, they had brought her back and sent her overseas. It was also considered compensation.

It was not rare for parents to punish their children physically. There were few people who had never been beaten by their parents.

But others felt that the barrier between them was very deep. At the charity banquet, Third Master Fu had angered Old Madam He, and the two families had accumulated grudges. Even if they acknowledged each other, there would still be hidden dangers.

What everyone was looking forward to seeing was how many people from the Fu family would come. After all, Yu Manxi was the daughter-in-law of the Fu family.

“I heard that Secretary Fu is still working in Jiangcheng and hasn’t retumed to

the capital. Did his wife come back?”

“There’s no news from the Fu family at all. I wonder what their attitude toward

this filiation banquet is?

“Third Master rebuked Old Madam He so harshly last time. If Yu Manxi returns

and acknowledges the He family, Third Master will probably be embarrassed. I

think Third Master definitely won’t be here.”

While everyone was discussing, Fu Chen had already gotten out of his car.

Duan Linbai came with him.

Fu Chen wasn’t wearing any formal clothes. He was wearing a simple

solid-colored sweater and a long black coat, but there was still a Buddhist

prayer bead bracelet hanging on his wrist. His eyes were gentle as neon lights

flashed past him..

Otherwise, with a trace of smoke and fire, when he raised his eyes, he looked

like the gods and Buddhas of the heavens, aloof from worldly affairs.

On the other hand, Duan Linbai was wearing a dark green suit and sunglasses,

looking as high-profile as usual.

With different styles, it was hard to say who suppressed who. But in front of F

Chen, Duan Linbai wanted to be a rich and noble flower in the human world. He

was unrestrained.

“F*ck, most of them have female companions. Why do I have to be with you?”

“You can go by yourself”

“Are you bullying me for being a single dog?” Duan Linbai reached out to

straighten his clothes.

“You work by yourself outside the city. At most, you’re a stray dog.”

Duan Linbai’s fingers stiffened. Fck, my hands are itching to hit someone.

What should I do?

In the following car, Fu Yuxiu got out and followed closely behind Fu Chen.

After finding out that the He family was holding a filiation banquet, Fu Zhongli

and Sun Qjonghua had wanted to come back. But the two elders of the Fu

family had said that there was no need and that they could just let the children

play. There was no need for them to go through so much trouble.

This puzzled Sun Qjonghua.

She heard that Old Madam Fu liked Yu Manxi a lot. On this occasion, the more

people from the Fu family who went, the more support they would have for

her. Why didn’t she let thhem go back?

Later, when she found out that Fu Shinan’s family wasn’t returning to the

capital, she realized the meaning behind it.

She reminded Fu Yuxiu to go over and keep quiet and not cause trouble. He just

had to follow Fu Chen closely.

“Manman, Sinian, welcome.” He Maozhen hurried over to greet them warmly,

and he even changed howhe addressed him. “Third Master, Young Master

Duan, you’re here too.”

“Manman..” Zou Li changed her arrogant attitude from before. Her eyes were

red as she went to hug Yu Manxi.

But Yu Manxi stood rooted to the ground and didn’t reach out or move, making

Zou Li feel very awkward. She could only pat her shoulder and say, “It’s good

that you’re home.”

Yu Manxi gritted her teeth..

This was the first time her biological mother had hugged her since she could

remember. It actually happened on such an occasion. How laughable.

“Big Sister, welcome back.” He Shiqing had a gracious and kind attitude.

Yu Manxi smiled without saying anything

“Come in quickly. It’s too cold outside.” He Maozhen rubbed his hands and

walked to Fu Sinian’s side. “I didn’t have time to congratulate you and Manman

on getting married. Remember to come to our house for dinner tomorrow.

Tll get someone to make something delicious tomorrow. We father and son

can have a drink.

We’re family from now on..

Fu Sinian remained silent, making He Maozhen feel very awkward.

Duan Linbai walked behind them, speechless.

rve seen many hypocrites, but Ive never seen someone so shameless. Hes not

even ashamed to mention that theyre famnily?

He even said something about father and son to Sinian. How amazing

“Manman, Ive already had someone tidy up the room at home for you. You can

go back and stay anytime.” He Maozhen was afraid that others wouldn’t know

that he treated Yu Manxi well, so he hurriedly performed.

“Tm a little tired. I want to rest.” When Yu Manxi saw the luxurious decor of the

venue, she didn’t feel warm, and the chill in her heart grew even stronger.

“Okay, that’s fine. You might be busy later. Many of your uncles and elders are

here. I’l take you to see them later. Shiqing, accompany your sister.

“No need. I have a friend here”Yu Maxi had long seen Song Fengwan

Everyone was looking forward to something happening when Yu Manxi

entered the venue, such as the mother and daughter hugging each other and

crying. They didn’t expect them to separate so uneventfully.

Fu Chen’s group met up with Song Fengwan and Qjao Xiyan. They were sitting

together, and no one else could get involved.

But when Fu Yuxiu saw Qjao Xiyan, he called out guiltily, “Big Brother Qjao.”

“Mm.”Qjao Xiyan didn’t even lookat him.

**

The He family members had just ended a self-indulgent awkward

conversation, and they were all holding back their anger.

‘I don’t think she wants to come back at all. Look at her. I wanted to hold her

hand just now, but she avoided it. How awkward was I”

Zou Li didn’t have much feeling for her daughter who had been sent away at

birth.

Because she couldn’t give birth toa son, she had always been criticized in the

He family. When Yu Manxi’s identity had been exposed, He Maozhen had been

stripped of his party membership and lost his govermment job. To her, this

daughter had never brought her any benefits.

“You’re her mother. Didn’t I remind you long ago to ask her out more and

interact more with her? You don’t have to be so distant.” He Maozhen was also

annoyed that Fu Sinian had ignored him.

I want to interact with her too. But I can’t see her, and I can’t stop her at the

TV station.

“I keep feeling that these people are behaving strangely. Do you think

something will happen tonight?

“We clearly prepared a red gown for her, but she came in black It’s a little

unlucky.”

He Maozhen frowned. “She must be complaining in her heart, so you have to

interact more with her. You have to lower your stance.”

I know.”

“Where are Mom and He Xi? They’re not out yet?”

“Backstage.” Zou Li sighed.

“Wasn’t it ugly at the charity banquet previously? Especially that Fu Chen. He

pointed at her nose and scolded her. She can’t stand it and doesn’t want to

come out.

“Fu Chen is really arrogant and domineering just because he’s Old Master Fu’s

youngest son.”

He Maozhen was helpless. “Well all be family in the future. Whať’s there to be

upset about?

At this moment, as he looked at the group of people not far away, he could

already imagine that the He family would regain its former glory.

“But there are too few people from the Fu family tonight.” Zou Li looked at

them too. “Don’t they say that she’s very favored in the Fu family? I thought

there would be a lot of people from their family.”

“Isn’t Third Master Fu enough?* He Maozhen didn’t care about this.

Anyway, Yu Manxi and Fu Sinian would be holding a wedding ceremony in the

future. There would definitely be a chance to meet.

“Go to the back and find Mother and He Xi. Get them to come out quickly.

Everyone is here. Itll start at six.”

It got dark early in winter, and the number 6 was more auspicious.

Okay.” Zou Li nodded and walked to the lounge at the back.

**

When Old Madam He and He Xi appeared, the guests had already sat down. As

Yu Manxi’s in-laws, the Fu family’s seats were naturally not with the Qjao

family’s.

Song Fengwan looked at the photos of Yu Manxi on the big screen. They were

all from almost two years ago. She couldn’t even find a single one of when she

was a baby and a child. It was ridiculous.

old Madam He’s seat was facing Fu Chen. She was so angry that her face turmed

green.

She had never been so humiliated in public in her life. When she was at home

these few days, her blood pressure had always been abnormal. But the person

who was responsible for it acted as if nothing had happened and even smiled at

her.

She reached out to cover her chest, feeling aggrieved and angry.

“Third Fu, I think old Madam He wants to eat you.” IDuan Linbai held back his

laughter and tried his best to keep his voice low.

Fu Chen smiled without saying anything. He kept looking at Song Fengwan at

another table from the corner of his eye.

There was a child sitting beside her. She was teasing the child with a piece of

candy, but the child didn’t even look at her.

Sitting beside Old Madam He, He Xi was also depressed because He Maozhen

had told her that she would have to apologize to Yu Manxi publicly later and

look for Song Fengwan to apologize for her rashness.

Apologizing to Yu Manxi was fine. After all, the He family was begging her to

come back now, so it was only right for her to lower her head.

But she still bore a grudge for the slap Song Fengwan had given her that day.

Moreover, she had publicly exposed her intentions about Qjao Xiyan, making

her feel embarrassed and angry.

Making her apologize? She was unwilling

Just as she was staring fiercely, Qjao Xiyan, sitting beside Song Fengwan,

noticed her gaze and looked up. Their gazes met.

A certain someone immediately became restless. Her entire face flushed red,

and her heart raced.

He.

– Is looking at me

He Xi lowered her head and looked delicate.

“Is that He Xxi? Qjao Xiyan didn’t know He Xi. He only guessed her identity

from her seat.

Song Fengwan looked up. “Yes, it’s her. She’s been trying to please me and

asking me about you. She wants to woo you. Cousin, don’t tell me you like her?

“Her nose is fake, and her chin is fake too. She even cut her eyelids.

Song Fengwan was dumbfounded.

“The double eyelids surgery was a failure. There’s a scar:”

Song Fengwan stared at He Xi. She was wearing makeup, so she couldn’t see it

clearly.

Cousin’s eyes are equipped with micro scanners. so scary.

Actually, there were many people who had undergone coSmetic surgery, and it

was nomal for them to have double eyelids cut. “I don’t think anyone’s looks

are perfect in your eyes.”

Song Fengwan’s eyes were slightly short-sighted. Qjao Xiyan had once said

that after she became short-sighted, her eyes became smaller and less lively

than before

A person appeared in Qjao Xiyan’s mind. Her facial features were cold, and she

wasn’t considered beautiful, but he couldn’t find any flaws.

“Yes.” Qjao Xiyan smiled.

“Who” Song Fengwan was curious.

Qjao Xiyan ignored her, making Song Fengwan feel very depressed. Cousin

actually has a girl hiding in his heart?

What kind of beauty could make him think that słhe looks perfect?

Qjao Xiyan’s smile made He Xi even more infatuated. She thought that the

smile was aimed at her. It was extremely beautiful.

Duan Linbai was originally sending a message in the group chat to ask if jing

Hanchuan was coming. When he looked up, he saw He Xi’s shy expression. It

looked as if her heart was fluttering

“F*ck, Third Fu, who is she targeting?

He Xi used to like Duan Linbai a lot and pursued him intensely.

“Her face looks so in love. It’s so f#cking scary.”

“Qjao Xiyan, ” Fu Chen replied.

“He must have done something immoral in his past life to have caught her eye.

Fu Chen raised his eyebrows. “She also had her eyes on you. Seems like you

weren’t a good person in your past life either.”

Duan Linbai was speechless. Were brothers, yet yout re helping Qiao Xiyan

attack me You and Little Sister-in-Law aren’t even married yet, but yourre

already busy sucking up to your brother-in-law?

Because the He family would be going on stage later, the host had to tell them

the arrangements.

He Shiqing was depressed. She had thought that after the charity banquet, Yu

Manxi would never be able to enter the He family again. Now, she actually

came back to split the family assets. She put on some makeup and adjusted her

mentality. When she went out, she still looked like a noble and elegant young

lady.

From the corner of her eye, she saw He Xi talking to someone. It’s already 6:50

  1. Why is she still dawdling here?

Just as He Shiqing was about to call out to her, she saw the man hand her a

small glass bottle. It was the size of a medical vial and had a transparent

solution inside.

. I’ll take effect in an hour. The drug lasts for around three hours. After that,

even a urine test can’t find anything!

“Really can’t find anything?

“This is a knockout drug, not that thing It’s directly mixed in the drink. Just a

little bit, and the effect will be amazing. You won’t be able to notice it at all. Do

you want it?

“Yes!” He Xi took the bottle and looked around.

He Shiqing hurriedly hid. He Xi is takinga knockout drug? For whonm?

When she returned to her seat, He Xi was already sitting beside her. He

Maozhen kept reminding her, “Little Xi, don’t forget to apologize to Miss Song

in private later.”

“I know.” He Xi agreed very readily this time.

He Shiqing looked at Song Fengwan. Qjao Xiyan is here too. hen, this

medicine..

Ir’s most likely for Qiao Xiyan, but.

I can also make use of it.

He Shiqing lowered her head and tooka sip of water. Idiot, since you’ ve

delivered yourself to my doorstep to be my tool, I won’t be polite.

Meanwhile, Fu Chen received a private message from Jing Hanchuan.

[He Xi secretly found someone to buy a knockout drug for your

brother-in-law.]

Fu Chen calmly tooka sip of water and looked around. Hanchuan is here too?

He came to watch the show without anyone noticing. He is really inmpressive

Tonight, there were slight waves on the surface, but there were undercurrents

surging behind the scenes..
