Chapter 90: Qin Yiyi: You’re Acting a Little too Much
Fang Yingxue was dumbfounded, her face full of shock and disbelief.
“Mom, you hit me?!”
She couldn’t believe it.
Her eyes were wide open, her face full of shock and regret.
Her mother had never hit her before!
“What did you do to bully Yiyi?”
Old Lady Fang was very normal now, her logic and her eyes clear.
“Yiyi, what did she do? You said you didn’t want such a good child, so you didn’t want her. You lost her just a little bit. Your father and I said something back then. We wouldn’t force you to take her if you did not want to take her. The two of you insisted on taking her. You even said that you would let her come to the city to live a good life and go to a good school. What did you promise me back then? Is this what you meant by taking good care of the child?”
Old Lady Fang pointed at Qin Yiyi, her tone filled with pain, “How old is she? She’s just a teenager, a sophomore in high school. You let her live alone outside? Oh, no, you didn’t let her live in your Qin family at all. Your Qin family is noble, and your father and I don’t care. But this child is your own flesh and blood, right? Why are you two so ruthless?”
“Mom!”
Fang Yingxue felt like she was going crazy with anger. She pointed at Qin Yiyi. “What kind of bewitching drug did this wretched girl give you and dad to make you side with her like this?”
“I’m your biological daughter!”
“We don’t have a daughter like you who lets her parents stay in a hotel and doesn’t come home to visit her parents for more than ten years.”
Old Lady Fang said these words very domineeringly. As she turned her head, her expression suddenly began to panic again.
“Yiyi, Yiyi! Did Yiyi out to play again?”
“Old Man, hurry up and call that girl back to eat.”
As she said this, she pushed Old Man Fang, who was beside her. Old Lady Fang even turned her head in astonishment to look at the ferocious-looking Fang Yingxue.
“Whose family is this young lady from? Hurry up and go home to eat. It’s cold outside, and our family doesn’t have any extra food for you to eat!”
Her Old Fang was having a hard time cooking.
She wouldn’t let an outsider eat at home!
Fang-outsider-Yingxue was so angry that her lungs were about to explode, but this was her biological mother after all…
She glared at Qin Yiyi as if she was venting her anger.
She knew that this wretched girl had a grudge against her in her past life. She was here to deliberately torment and anger her in this life!
“Eh, Yiyi, you’re back. Let’s quickly go home for dinner. Why are your hands so cold? Hurry up and go home to warm up beside the fire…”
As she pulled Qin Yiyi forward, she kept muttering to herself, “Yiyi, let me tell you. There are two sweet potatoes left for you in the pot. Let’s go back and eat them. If we’re late, those two brats next door will smell them and snatch them away. Let’s hurry up and eat them all…”
Qin Yiyi couldn’t help but laugh. “Grandma, the two brothers next door have moved away.”
The two brats that Old Lady Fang was talking about were the two children next door to the Fang family.
The older one was only two or three years older than her.
The younger one seemed to be the same age as her, but she was a girl. In her memory, she loved to run behind Yiyi with snot running down her nose.
At that time, Qin Yiyi was not in good health, so the little girl would accompany her to and from school slowly…
That was her only friend in the countryside.
In her previous life, she remembered that when she grew up, she had asked someone to look for this brother and sister.
However, there were no clues.
In this life, she had returned with so many memories and experiences, and in addition to the chaotic events of the Qin family…
She had forgotten about this for a moment!
It seemed that in the future, she would have to flip over a wall from the internet.
Retracting his thoughts, Qin Yi helped Old Lady Fang and coaxed her to walk forward.
“They’ve moved away for a long time. They won’t fight with us. Grandma, walk slowly…”
“Then let’s walk slowly?”
“Walk slowly…”
The two figures slowly walked away.
Only a few sentences were carried by the wind.
The wind blew.
Half of Fang Yingxue’s face was burning with pain.
She thought of the scene where she was slapped in the face by Old Lady Fang and couldn’t help but look hatefully at Old Master Fang who was still standing at the side.
“Dad, Look at my mom. Why don’t you care about her? She just hit someone and left?”
Old Master Fang’s gaze was deep.
“What, do you want your mom to apologize to you, or better yet, kneel on the ground and beg you to forgive her?”
“Fang Yingxue, you’re so capable.”
Fang Yingxue was so angry that her vision turned black. “Dad, it was my mother who hit me!”
“Then you deserve to be hit!”
His sharp gaze seemed to pierce through all of Fang Yingxue’s thoughts. Old Master Fang snorted twice.
“Your mother hit you once and you’re already so angry. Then why don’t you think about all the grievances Yiyi suffered here?”
He pointed at Fang Yingxue twice.
“Yingxue, if you still have the heart of a mother, you should go back and reflect on yourself.”
With that, he shook his head and prepared to leave.
He had said so much only because the person in front of him was his biological daughter.
However, Old Master Fang also had a feeling that this daughter wouldn’t be able to pull her back if she were to walk on the road of crashing into the south wall.
“Grandpa, you and grandma have misunderstood Mommy.”
Qin Jiatong’s brows were delicate and pretty, and her voice was soft as she stood out. “Mommy is really good to sister. It’s because sister herself always feels uncomfortable at home and has all sorts of worries about not being close to her. Daddy and Mommy want her to live more casually and not be too restrained, so they let sister live outside… Also, Grandpa, you can check sister’s bank card, as well as the water, electricity, and rent of the house that sister lives in. All of these are paid by Mommy.”
She had originally thought that her words would ease Old Master Fang’s anger.
She was also his granddaughter.
He could treat Qin Yiyi so well, and she was a good student with excellent character, and had music, chess, poetry, calligraphy, and painting skills!
Grandpa would definitely like her, right?
She could help her mother out of trouble, and she could let her grandfather see that she wasn’t inferior to Qin Yiyi, and she could also gain the favor of the two elders of the Fang family…
But in reality…
Old Master Fang only gave her a cold glance and then looked away as if he was looking at trash, “Is this the child that you two are protecting like jewels? Speaking of which, she was born on the same day as Yiyi, right? Open your eyes wide and see what she is wearing, and what Yiyi is wearing. Aren’t they all your children? Also, you said that your mother helped Yiyi with the money and paid the rent and utilities…”
Old Master Fang, who had just come back to his senses, became even angrier.
“Fang Yingxue, there are so many houses under the Qin family’s name, but you’re actually renting a house for your child?”
“Aren’t you afraid of losing face if this gets out? Will people think that your Qin family is bankrupt?”
“Dad, why do you say that? The houses there are close to the school, and the rent is very expensive, okay?”
At this moment, Old Master Fang thought, ‘Why didn’t I leave with the old woman just now?’
He stayed behind to try to persuade Fang Yingxue…
He looked at Fang Yingxue and waved his hand. “Okay, in the future, you can do whatever you want with your matters. I don’t care anymore.”
“Dad, how can you be like this? I haven’t even told you about mom hitting me. It was all instigated by that darn girl.”
Fang Yingxue directly blamed Qin Yiyi, “The way she is now is all because you and mom spoiled her. She doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth and even dares to talk back to me, her mother, as if I’m her enemy. It’s even better now. She actually dared to instigate my mother to hit me. If I had known earlier, I would have strangled her when I gave birth to her!”
“Grandpa, don’t be angry. Mom was just angered by sister just now. She didn’t mean to say that…”
“Grandpa…”
“What did you say about your sister? Don’t chase her. You silly girl. What sister? She doesn’t treat you like a sister.”
And that pair of good parents of hers probably only had Qin Yiyi in their eyes, right?
She just wanted to see if they would come looking for her when they were old and couldn’t walk anymore!
When the time came, she would definitely let them know that her biological daughter was the most reliable person they could rely on!
“Tongtong, let’s go home.”
“But mom, grandpa and grandma…”
“There’s no buts. Let’s go, let’s go.”
It was the new year and she was really furious that she came here to get beaten up!
If they had the ability, they would follow that wretched girl for the rest of their lives and let that wretched girl take care of them for the rest of her life!
Qin Yiyi raised her hand and tapped her chin, her eyes sparkling:?This was something that could be done!
On the other side.
Qin Yiyi coaxed Old Lady Fang to go shopping and buy a new year’s outfit for the two of them.
She hadn’t wanted to buy it, but in the end, Old Lady Fang dragged her along and bought a few!
They had lunch at a restaurant near the shopping mall.
Old Lady Fang loved to eat sweets, but at her age, she really couldn’t eat too many sweets.
Thus, Old Lady Fang made all sorts of complaints during the meal.
It was only after Qin Yiyi coaxed her that she had sweet soup to drink at home that she obediently sat there and finished the meal.
After the meal, Qin Yiyi bought some daily necessities and brought the two elders home.
Old Lady Fang wanted to take an afternoon nap.
After Qin Yiyi had settled Old Lady Fang, she came back to her senses and saw Old Master Fang sitting on the sofa with a gloomy expression.
Her eyes flashed. She somewhat understood Old Man Fang’s thoughts.
He probably felt that his daughter had changed too much and that it was hard for him to accept it, right?
If it was the Qin Yiyi of the past, she wouldn’t be able to accept it either.
They were both her daughters, so why was she treating her so badly? She was desperately trying to push her down and make her fall to the ground, yet she pampered Qin Jiatong to the heavens?
Because of this thought, she had been struggling to the death in her previous life.
But now…
After so many years of experience in a different space and time, Qin Yiyi truly felt that it was very normal.
People were particular about fate.
She and Mrs. Qin, Fang Yingxue, were simply not fated to meet.
What was there to think about such a simple reason?
If they looked at each other and hated each other… then there wouldn’t be much to be optimistic about..
“Grandfather, don’t think too much. These things are between her and me. I’ll settle them myself.”
She sat down next to Grandpa Fang with a smile and gently hugged his arm. Her tone was gentle with a hint of coquetry.
“It’s fine if she doesn’t like me. I’m a fair person. It’s fine if I don’t like her either.”
“Also, grandfather, you don’t have to worry about me. Really, I’m her daughter. It’s fine if she doesn’t love me, and I don’t like her as a mother. However, grandfather and grandmother are also her parents. It’s only right that you love your daughter.” However.., thinking about it, why was there still a sour feeling in her heart?
It was as if someone had snatched away something precious from her!
“Grandpa isn’t sad.”
Old Master Fang gently patted Qin Yiyi’s hair, and his calloused hands paused for a moment.
In the next moment, he smiled.
“Grandpa is just a little regretful. How could such a good child become like this?”
“Yiyi, you must remember that no matter what, you will always be the dearest child for your grandma and me. Your grandma and I will always be your reliance.”
“Grandpa and Grandma, I’m so glad to have you two!”
She rubbed her little head lightly against Grandfather Fang’s wide and thick palm, her brows and eyes curved.
“In the future, I will take care of you. Our family will never be separated.”
Family?
Old Master Fang smiled. “… okay.”
The Qin family.
Fang Yingxue angrily sat on the sofa, sniffing and glaring at several aunties of the family.
Until Mr. Qin returned.
Seeing her sitting there with an odd expression on her face, he couldn’t help but feel a little surprised.
“Who provoked you again?”
“Who else could it be? It’s all that wretched girl. I don’t know what she said to my parents, but she actually charmed my parents into only listening to her.”
Mr. Qin was unconcerned. “Then let the old man and the old lady stay at her place. Oh right, have you prepared for the banquet in a few days? If you plan to bring Jiatong along, remember to prepare a gown for her…”
“What banquet?”
Fang Yingxue’s words made Mr. Qin a little unhappy. “What have you been doing all day? How could you forget the annual celebrity banquet?”
“Ah, I really forgot about this. But don’t worry, I’ll call Tongtong to order clothes for the banquet…”
Mrs. Qin patted her own forehead.
She had been so angry with that girl recently that she almost fainted. She had almost forgotten such an important matter!
She reached out her hand. “Give it to me.”
“What do you mean give it to you? You’re not asking me for money again, right? Didn’t I just give you a card last week?”
Mr. Qin was very unhappy. He looked at Fang Yingxue with eyes full of doubt about her ability!
“I’m not asking for money. I’m asking for an invitation from you.”
Fang Yingxue rolled her eyes at Mr. Qin and said in a coquettish tone, “The invitation to the celebrity banquet is changed every year. Last year’s invitation is definitely different from this year’s. You should have received it a long time ago, right? Hurry up and show it to me. Last year’s invitation was hosted by the Gu family. Oh right, it seems like it’s the Mu family’s turn this year.”
“I wonder which designer the Mu family hired to design it.”
However, no matter which one it was, it would definitely be a top-notch international celebrity.
Even if it was just a small, unknown designer…
After Shanghai’s annual celebrity banquet, which was held by several wealthy families in the entire celebrity business circle…
This designer would definitely become famous!
She suppressed these thoughts and looked at Mr. Qin, who was sitting there with a frown on his face. She had a bad feeling in her heart.
“Old Qin, you… could it be that…” He didn’t receive an invitation, right?
Mr. Qin naturally didn’t want to say that he didn’t receive it. In fact, he really did receive it, but he gave it to?her…
He rubbed the space between his brows and looked at Fang Yingxue.
“I’ve thrown it back at the office, but I can only bring one person with me. If you want to bring Tongtong with you, I’ll look for someone later. Haven’t you been quite close to those ladies recently? Call them and ask about this. Tongtong is already eighteen years old, and she’s the eldest daughter of our Qin family. She can definitely appear at such occasions.”
“That’s right, I’ll call Mrs. Chen right now.”
This person was the sister-in-law of a cousin of a young lady from the Mu family. It was said that she was highly regarded by a certain member of the Mu family.
She would definitely be able to help Tongtong obtain an invitation card.
However, who knew that just as she opened her mouth on the phone, the other party would decisively reject her.
“These invitations are all distributed according to the name. Mrs. Qin, you’re making things difficult for me. Aiya, I still have something to do. Let’s chat later.”
PA! The other party directly hung up.
Hearing the busy tone on the phone, Fang Yingxue quickly recognized a hint of sternness in her eyes.
These people were definitely jealous of her Tongtong being so obedient, smart, and cute. They were afraid that Tongtong would steal the limelight from their own children.
It didn’t matter. She would definitely think of a way to get the invitations.
As long as her Tongtong appeared at the banquet, she would definitely be able to attract many young masters from famous and wealthy families.
When the time came, Tong Tong would be married and become a wealthy lady..
She would make those who looked down on her kneel under her feet and help her wipe her shoes and repent!
In the end, Fang Yingxue spent a large sum of money to buy an invitation card from a madam.
Even so, she was very happy.
As long as her daughter appeared, she would definitely be able to dazzle the crowd and become the most dazzling girl on the day of the banquet.
At another place, the scene was different from Fang Yingxue’s search for invitations everywhere.
Qin Yiyi was vexed by the fact that there were too many invitations in front of her!
Therefore, when Gu Yulin respectfully presented the VIP invitation cards of the celebrity banquet to her with a silly smile on his face…
She threw them back without batting an eyelid,
“No! I’m not going!”
Gu Yulin still wanted to open his mouth to persuade her.
What kind of place was that? Celebrities and socialites gathered there.
And it was a real, top-notch kind of place.
It was not like those people on the streets who could casually boast that they were the young masters of a business upstart family just because they had a few dollars.
Those people had no background, okay?
Qin Yiyi rolled her eyes and gestured at the corner of the table with her chin, signaling Gu Yulin to read it for himself.
Well, the invitation letter personally written by the head of the Mu family with gold-plated carvings and rolling silver edges was just thrown at the corner of the table.
With just a glance…
Gu Yu Lin lowered his head again to look at the invitation in his hand.
Yes, it should be thrown away!
Qin Yiyi really didn’t intend to go to that troublesome banquet.
It was just that…
She didn’t expect that Old Master Gu would actually find her personally…
Thinking about what Old Master Gu had said to her.
Qin Yiyi thought about it for two days, and in the end, she happily agreed.
“I’ll go!”
Shang Jingheng was still very depressed because of this matter. His voice was faint in the Wechat call.
“Yiyi, how can you treat me like this?” He had told this girl a long time ago and asked her to accompany him to attend the event.
What did this girl say? If she didn’t go, she wouldn’t go. Even if she was beaten to death, she wouldn’t go!
As for being beating to death…
With her skills, Hehe, how many people could beat her?
He could considered this a loss, but…
He couldn’t bear it!
Qin Yiyi sent him an image of rolling her eyes.
“Big Brother Shang, maintain your persona!”
You are aloof, indifferent, sharp, cold, and unchanging when Mount Tai collapses in front of you!
How can you feel wronged with me in Wechat?
On the other end of Wechat.
Shang Jingheng’s finger gently slid across the profile picture.
The corners of his lips curved slightly, and a faint smile flashed past.
His persona?
His persona was that he would come whenever she was happy!
The banquet was set at a top-class hotel in Shanghai.
Qin Yiyi was too lazy to do anything. She put on a small gown and a down jacket that reached to her ankles and sat in Ding Yi’s car.
Before Ding Yi came, he had been repeatedly reminded by Shang Jingheng.
No matter what Miss Qin wore, as long as she came, everything would be fine!
Moreover, Qin Yiyi was wearing a small gown?
Ding Yi happily sent her to the banquet hall. “Miss Qin, please wait here for a moment. Sir will be here soon…”
He had originally planned to come at the same time.
But when Qin Yiyi was about to leave, Old Lady Fang hugged her tightly and refused to let go.
Furthermore, Shang Jingheng was not in the city…
Ding Yi felt that he was a little tired. He had to pass the messages back and forth. It would be strange if he wasn’t tired!
After sitting in the car for a while, Qin Yiyi glanced at Ding Yi and opened the car door.
“I’ll wait for him inside.”
It was a little cold inside the car. She had to go in and eat something.
Ding Yi:?Excuse me, what does cold have to do with eating?!
People were already entering the banquet hall one after another.
Each of them held an invitation card in their hands, and their faces were filled with reserved and proud smiles.
With this invitation card in hand, it was almost as if they had stepped into the top-tier business circle in Shanghai!
Qin Yiyi’s almond-shaped eyes rolled slightly, and she couldn’t help but be a little speechless.
She was the only one wearing a down jacket!
The other girls and ladies were all dressed up beautifully, and they came looking as beautiful as they could.
It was as if… They were not cold at all.
Just as she was about to enter the venue, Qin Yiyi reached into her pocket and took out the invitation card.
Why wasn’t there any?
Could it be that she had forgotten to bring it over?
Just as he was thinking, the few people in front had already gone in. The gazes of the two security guards landed on Qin Yiyi.
“Miss, please show me your invitation card.”
Qin Yiyi glanced at him indifferently and nodded. “Please wait a moment.”
There were a lot of pockets in the down jacket. which pocket did she stuff it into when she went out?
On the other side, in the second line.
A girl was already so anxious that she was about to cry.
Her invitation card was clearly still there just a moment ago!
There were already people whispering behind her.
“Could it be that she didn’t have an invitation card and wanted to sneak in?”
“Aiya, what bad luck. Why is he right in front of us?”
A girl complained unhappily, “Can you hurry up? If you don’t have an invitation, don’t pretend, okay?”
“I, I…”
Suddenly, she cheered in surprise, “Found it, found it, here it is, for you…”
“I’m sorry, Miss, your invitation is fake. Miss, you can’t enter…”
The girl’s face was pale as she was pushed aside by a few people behind her.
How could it be fake?
Qin Yiyi was about to turn to her.
The group of people behind her who were separated by a few people suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
“Sister, why are you here? Sister, it’s really you. I thought sister didn’t like this place. Eh, sister, What are you doing? Could it be that you were stopped without an invitation card? But It’s okay, sister, you can go in with me. I have an invitation card here… Sister, why didn’t you tell me you wanted to come? I could have gone to pick you up earlier so that we could come together…”
Qin Jiatong stood in front of Qin Yiyi with an obedient and gentle smile on her face. Her eyes were filled with naked mockery.
Do you want to go in?
Beg Me, Beg Me!
Qin Yiyi didn’t even lift her eyelids. Did she drop her card in the car?
The next moment.
Qin Jiatong suddenly slapped her forehead with a yelp.
“Look at my memory. I suddenly forgot that I have used up all the additional slots on this invitation card…”
She gently bit her lips and looked at the girls who had come with her with a troubled expression, “Why don’t we see who will give the place to my sister? But don’t worry, I will make it up to you later… My sister is coming here for the first time, so I can’t let her leave like this…”
“But Tongtong, you promised us that you would bring us in together.”
“That’s right, Tongtong. She didn’t tell you anyway, nor did she treat you as her younger sister. Let’s go in quickly.”
A few girls were trying to persuade her.
One of them said, “Tongtong, you’re thinking too much. Your sister must have an invitation to come here. Besides, doesn’t she know Second Young Master Gu?”
“That’s right. How could I have forgotten about this? Sister, you have such a good relationship with Second Young Master Gu. Second Young Master should have given sister an invitation, right?”
Qin Jiatong lightly patted her own forehead, her face full of self-reproach for being nosy. “Sister, I was only worried about you just now. Don’t think too much. Sister, you should be here waiting for Second Young Master Gu, right? Then you wait first. I’ll go in with the others to wait for you. Oh right, father and mother will also be coming for the party. Sister, you must remember to come and look for us. Don’t play too much with second young master and forget about your parents and sister.” In the end, she even winked, he revealed a sly and mischievous look at Qin Yiyi, but deep in her eyes…
Isn’t Qin Yiyi amazing? If you have the ability, go in yourself!
Have a good relationship with Second Young Master Gu?
What kind of person was Second Young Master Gu? He was a famous playboy in Shanghai, a playboy!
How could he put such a little girl in his eyes?
At most, he was just playing around. Would he really bring her sister to such an occasion to embarrass himself?!
Just let her wait here.
When the time came, she would see who would be the one to be humiliated and ridiculed!
Even though she thought so in her heart, she still had the image of a good sister who cared about her elder sister.
She looked at Qin Yiyi with a worried look on her face.
Qin Yiyi:?You are acting a little too much. I hope to see you continue your performance in a while.
Qin Yiyi glanced at Qin Jiatong with a half-smile. Qin Yiyi strode past them with her long legs and slowly handed over her invitation card.
“Here, take it.”
The girl’s voice was a little hoarse and carried a bit of carelessness.
However, her entire body emitted a noble aura that could not be ignored, as well as an endless sharpness.
The next moment, the two security guards instantly straightened their backs.
Black Gold!
The two security guards immediately had solemn expressions and bowed ninety degrees respectfully.
“This young lady, please follow me.”
It was actually a security guard who personally brought her in!
As for the rest of Qin Jiatong and the others, the security guards merely checked the invitation cards indifferently and let them in!
Qin Jiatong and the others were a little dumbfounded when they saw this scene.
What was going on?
Why did the two security guards bow to Qin Yiyi and even personally sent her in?!
“Tongtong, the invitation card that your sister took out doesn’t seem to be the same as ours…”
“What’s there to be confused about? My sister knows Second Young Master Gu.”
She didn’t say that this was a gift from Second Young Master Gu!
If someone else made that guess, it had nothing to do with her!
Moreover, that’s right. The way the two security guards treated Qin Yiyi… the reason must have been Second Young Master Gu.
What a snob!
Sooner or later, she would trample these people under her feet and make Qin Yiyi kneel and beg her!
Definitely!
