“...” Qi Chenglin was left speechless.
After the kid finished showing off, he ran to Little Muran and said, “Since I’ll receive a lot of gifts today, don’t forget to come over to my house and play!”
Little Muran, who was eating a lollipop, nodded in response. She figured she should share anything that she liked to Youxuan, who was treating her exceptionally well.
Thus, Little Muran took out the half-melted lollipop from her mouth and offered it to Youxuan. “Brother Youxuan, I have a lollipop. We should eat together.”
The exhilarated kid’s eyes turned into crescent moons as he stared at the round and shiny lollipop that was enveloped in Little Muran’s saliva, and without further hesitation, he put it into his mouth.
Hey, indirect kisses were embarrassing!
The kid sucked the lollipop intensely before passing it back to Little Muran. “It’s sweet. Mumu, here you go.”
Little Muran figured that she was sharing happiness with Youxuan so she continued eating the lollipop with delight without thinking of it.
Coincidentally, Wei Ziqi witnessed this scene and walked toward them with a darkened expression. He would definitely throw this brat out of the room if it was not his birthday today.
Wei Ziqi was merely a few moments late and this brat had already taken advantage of his precious daughter. This brat surely knew how to seize every opportunity, and preventive measures proved to be useless against him!
Ruan Danchen noticed that Wei Ziqi was on the brink of an explosion and wanted to direct his rage on the rascal who dared to take advantage of his daughter, and this rascal happened to be her own son.
Thus, Ruan Danchen announced quickly. “Let’s head up, delicious food and entertainment are prepared. We even prepared many Disney cartoons and toys for playing house for the girls on purpose as well.”
“Yay!” The children yelled in joy and excitement as their parents brought them to the wonderland, which slowed Wei Ziqi down.
Ruan Danchen quickly seized this opportunity and dragged her troublesome son with her.
Wei Ran held Little Muran’s hand in the meantime. However, Qi Youxuan seemed to have a death wish when he turned around and yelled at Little Muran, “Mumu, come over to my house later to play house! I’ll act as the father while you’ll play as the mother, and Zhang Mingming will be our son!”
“...” Zhang Mingming and his mother were at a loss for words.
...
...
The birthday boy blew out the candles after making birthday wishes and received a lot of birthday presents. Chang Zhiyuan even gave him seven birthday presents as compensation for missing out on his previous birthdays.
The children had a piece of cake in each of their hands with creams smeared across their mouths and cheeks; it made them look like a kindle of kittens at the moment.
On the other hand, the adults were chit-chatting in another corner. Since they were all parents of Qi Youxuan’s friends, Qi Chenglin gave them the respect they deserved too.
It was then when the manager walked toward Qi Chenglin and uttered with a normal tone, “Young Master Lin. Grandmother Chang, Chang Zhixing, and Liu Xiangwen wish to attend Little Master’s birthday party. They’re sitting downstairs in the dining hall as we speak.”
Chang Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows curiously. He did not expect Grandmother Chang to swallow her pride for Chang Zhixing’s sake.
Since Dynasty’s VIP card was registered under Chang Zhiyuan’s name and in his hand as well, it was pointless for Chang Zhixing to bring his own VIP card. Thus, without a choice, the trio had to wait in the hall downstairs.
“Well, we didn’t even invite them. If we agree with every family’s demand on attending shamelessly, what’s the point of invitation cards? Who’ll hold the Qi family in high regard if everyone can come and leave as they wish? Let them wait if they’re willing. Please convey my message to them without missing a word, and make sure everyone can see them.” Qi Chenglin placed his chopsticks down.
The indomitable manager nodded before returning to the trio and conveyed Qi Chenglin’s every word to Chang Zhixing. He was the manager of Dynasty; he had absolutely no reason to fret about the Chang family.
Chang Zhixing was mortified. His cheeks were flushed red, and rage started to boil within him.
Grandmother Chang fought the urge to run straight into the party and confront Qi Chenglin. Her only reason being here was because of Chang Zhixing, who returned last night and explained the trouble Changhe faced recently. He begged Grandmother Chang to reconcile with Qi Chenglin and Ruan Danchen before Changhe was liquidated.
Despite the reluctance, Grandmother Chang had no choice but to swallow her pride for the sake of her son and the company.
However, Grandmother Chang ended up meeting with a rebuff at this moment.
Grandmother Chang lost her temper out of humiliation. “I told you I didn’t want to come and yet you insisted. They’re youngsters. An elder like me isn’t supposed to come over personally!”
“Mom, the elders in the Qi family and Ruan family are here tonight, so it’s more appropriate if you can attend personally,” Chang Zhixing tried his best to persuade Grandmother Chang.
“Appropriate? Well, here I am, but they refused to meet us and even asked an outsider to convey a message. It’s very obvious that they want to embarrass us!” Grandmother Chang’s expression contorted in wrath.
Chang Zhixing was furious too. All this would not have happened if Grandmother Chang did not offend both the Qi family and the Ruan family.
Grandmother Chang stood up abruptly. “I’m not going to embarrass myself further in this place. I’m leaving!”
Chang Zhixing sighed. “Why don’t you instruct the chauffeur to send you home while Xiangwen and I continue our wait?”
Grandmother Chang nodded reluctantly but Liu Xiangwen protested, “I think I should accompany Mom–”
Before Liu Xiangwen could finish her sentence, Chang Zhixing glared at her furiously. She took part in offending Ruan Danchen and even tried every attempt to push Chang Zhiyuan away from the Chang family, but she wanted to escape at this moment?
“Stay here! You created all this mess, and now you’re thinking about running away? We’ll wait here if they don’t let us attend the party, and you’ll apologize to them once they’re done with their celebration.” Chang Zhixing glared at Liu Xiangwen.
Naturally, Grandmother Chang would not scold her son for the sake of her daughter-in-law, and she would give her unfailing support no matter what Chang Zhixing said.
Grandmother Chang even ignored Liu Xiangwen’s desperate act of grievance.
Liu Xiangwen then pondered in resentment. Chang Zhixing was blaming her for everything at present, but why did he allow everything to happen in the first place? He only knew how to speak righteously and pretended that he had never thought of fighting for possession with Chang Zhiyuan at all. However, he was not stopping her wholeheartedly at that time, so it was obvious that he had the same thought in his mind as well and was merely putting on a show. He wanted to be a good cop, so she had no choice but to be a bad cop instead.
When everything had gone to hell at this moment, they put all the blame on Liu Xiangwen.
Grandmother Chang was unconcerned about this matter. When she was about to leave, the housekeeper at home pushed Chang Jingqiu into Dynasty.
Chang Jingqiu was wearing a blue-white striped chiffon shirt with a high-waist milky white long dress to cover both of her lower limbs completely. The chiffon shirt was tucked into the dress which made her appear graceful and charming like an elegant angel.
Moreover, Chang Jingqiu put on a light Korean-style makeup with a bitten-lips look. Pink-colored lipstick was applied on the inner part of the lips and a lighter colored lipstick applied on the outer aspect. Since she was sitting in a wheelchair, she appeared especially fragile and delicate like a sick beauty.
Chang Jingqiu’s every movement radiated pride when she was initially well and healthy, but after suffering from an injury and was forced to sit in a wheelchair, she appeared delicate and weak which could induce sympathy in others as well.
“Grandma, Younger Uncle, Younger Aunt,” Chang Jingqiu greeted and instructed the housekeeper to leave after she was pushed to the trio’s front.
“Why did you come?” Grandmother Chang asked out of shock.
Chang Jingqiu answered softly, “I knew you came here to reconcile with Ruan Danchen, and since I took part in offending Ruan Danchen, why shouldn’t I come? We’re a family in any case, so we should unite and face every trouble together. I’m the cause of this trouble, so how can I hide at home while you stand on the front line? I’ll apologize to Ruan Danchen and beg for her forgiveness. She won’t embarrass me further since I’m disabled now, right? We swallowed our pride to beg for their forgiveness, and if they continue their revenge on us, then they’re—”
“—They’re heartless and without conscience!” Grandmother Chang completed the sentence coldly.
Qi Chenglin and his family were fully aware of the conversation that was going on between the Chang family.
Embarrassment was torturing Chang Zhiyuan. Both Grandfather Qi and Grandmother Qi were smoldering underneath their stony expressions. Steam hissed through Grandfather Ruan’s nose as he commented without scruple, “Bunch of imbeciles!”
Chang Zhiyuan was mortified but words failed to come out of his mouth in response.
Qi Chenglin’s expression remained cold and flat. He merely dialed a phone number and said, “Everyone’s present. Let’s begin.”
...
...
The members of the Chang family, who were waiting in Dynasty’s dining hall, failed to notice Jiang Yuan’s car which was parked close to Dynasty. Then, two individuals exited the car momentarily—Huang Pinggui and Wang Lixia.
“Let’s go. You’re experts in what’s coming soon, so act professionally.” The corners of Jiang Yuan’s lips curled up in contempt.
“Mr... Mr. Qi needs to keep his promise. My son’s future is at stake,” said Huang Pinggui out of worry.
“You’re staying in B City recently so it’s natural that you’ve no idea what had happened back in your village. You’ll know once you give your son a phone call right now,” Jiang Yuan answered calmly.
Joy started spreading within Huang Pinggui as he dialed his home number quickly.
“Dan’er, how’s everything at home?”
“Everything’s fine. By the way, dad, I received an offer letter from University A yesterday, but the university entrance exam was over just recently and I haven’t even started filing my application form yet. Why would University A send me an offer letter? Is this a fake? I’ve heard that there are many fake offer letters recently too.”
Huang Pinggui asked quickly, “Where’s the offer letter? Did you throw it away?”
“No, the offer letter is designed very beautifully. I don’t feel like throwing it away even if it’s a fake.”
“Oh, thank goodness. Don’t throw it away, the offer letter is real,” Huang Pinggui advised.
“What do you mean?” Huang Jincheng was frozen on the spot.
“Well...” Huang Pinggui found it very difficult to explain, so he created an excuse instead. “Didn’t I work in town previously? I have a close friend whom I met coincidentally in B City this time. That friend of mine earned a fortune and is very successful right now. He knew you were having a university entrance exam this time, so he asked a friend of his to get you into University A directly.”
Huang Pinggui was not an educated man and this excuse had many flaws in it. How influential his friend needed to be in order to instruct a well-reputed university to deliver an offer letter as he wished?
Did Huang Pinggui think that everyone was Qi Chenglin?
However, Huang Jincheng graduated from high school not long ago and was born in a village, thus he was inexperienced in social affairs. Thus, this offer letter came as a pleasant surprise to him as he believed his father’s explanation.
Huang Pinggui could even hear the incoherence and quiver in his son excited tone as they continued chatting for a while.
Huang Pinggui noticed the expressionless Jiang Yuan after hanging up the call and promised immediately. “I feel at ease right now. Don’t worry, my wife and I will do our best later.”
Jiang Yuan nodded and brought them to Dynasty’s main entrance before gesturing them to enter.
After Huang Pinggui and Wang Lixia built up their emotions at the main entrance, they entered Dynasty and saw the Chang family’s location straight away.
Wang Lixia let out a thunderous sound of wailing as she ran straight toward the Chang family.
“Jingqiu, you’re so cruel to disown your own parents. You were afraid that your true identity would be revealed, so you threatened us and wouldn’t even let your brother further his study in a university. How could you do that?”
The Chang family was caught off-guard and failed to react immediately when Wang Lixia pounced on Chang Jingqiu, grabbed her shirt and lifted her up.
Wang Lixia was as strong as an ox since she was used to wielding hoe and shovel in the agricultural work, so she actually lifted Chang Jingqiu off the wheelchair at this moment.
The ashen-grey faced Chang Jingqiu screamed at the top of her lungs and Chang Zhixing quickly came over to drag Wang Lixia away from her. “What are you doing? Why did you come here acting like a barbarian?”
“Chang Jingqiu, you’re ruthless and cruel. You pushed Chang Zhiyuan down the slope which nearly cost him his life at that time, and now you want to harm us too. What comes around goes around; lightning will strike you one day!”
There were many customers in Dynasty at the moment and Wang Lixia’s voice was loud and clear too, so they were all taken aback after listening to Wang Lixia.
“This... this is hogwash!” Blood was drained from the bewildered Chang Jingqiu’s face. She was framed this time, but unable to defend herself due to her soft voice since Wang Lixia was consistently shaking her body.
“You wanted to disown your own parents for wealth and prosperity. You’re heartless and without conscience!” Wang Lixia released her grip and threw Chang Jingqiu onto the ground since Chang Zhixing was trying to pull her away.
“Ah!” Chang Jingqiu dropped onto the floor on all fours and her long dress was lifted up in the process, revealing a pair of legs that were devoid of all sensations.
The pair of ballet flats flew off her feet and scattered onto the floor.
Chang Jingqiu put the dress down quickly to cover up her exposed legs. It was not embarrassing to expose her lower limbs before this, but they appeared disgusting after she was paralyzed.
She could not even reach her shoes since they were so far away.
Then, she lifted her head and scanned the crowd in the dining hall. All of them seemed to be mocking her no matter how she looked at them.
The shock that was registered on their faces appeared as if they were laughing at her current identity at the moment.
When Chang Zhixing was about to help Chang Jingqiu, Wang Lixia turned around and grabbed Grandmother Chang’s shirt. Grandmother Chang had lived her life comfortably and luxuriously, so there was no way she could dodge Wang Lixia. Before she realized what had happened, Wang Lixia held onto her shirt and shook her repeatedly, messing up her initial tidy hair as she was struck dumb with astonishment.
“What... What are you doing? You lunatic!” Grandmother Chang yelled in fear and surprise, but her opponent was strong and formidable. She was nothing but a dough whom Wang Lixia could handle at will.
“Let me tell you something. We’re fearless and ready to risk everything so that the wicked like you won’t have everything you wish!” Wang Lixia screamed angrily.
Chang Zhixing had no choice but to leave Chang Jingqiu aside and protect Grandmother Chang. Chang Jingqiu remained a mess on the ground and she could not even sit up herself without the wheelchair’s support.
In the meantime, Huang Pinggui complained to the customers in the dining room while Chang Zhixing was busy protecting his family. “The Chang family is a bully! After Chang Jingqiu realized her true identity, she gave us eight hundred thousand Yuan to zip our mouths and disowned us. Grandmother Chang even threatened to destroy my son’s future and he wouldn’t be able to further his study in any university no matter how many exams he took! She was boasting! They tried to hide their hostility toward us from the public! Who did she think she was to disallow anyone from passing the university entrance exam? Is the Chang family really that powerful?”
“Even though we’re Chang Jingqiu’s biological parents, I can see that she’s just a greedy and selfish white-eyed wolf. She’ll leave the Chang family in an instant if there’s a greater benefit elsewhere. The time will come, Chang family! However, Grandmother Chang was willing to disown her biological granddaughter for the sake of this white-eyed wolf. She spread rumors about her biological granddaughter and was eager to see her divorce so that she’d live her life alone and helpless.”
“Everyone, our house is located in a village in J City’s district, and we perform our duty honestly and earnestly. Look at our clothes; we’ve been wearing them for years. We’ll only go to the market and buy a new set of clothes for a few Yuan which can last us for years. Do you know why? It’s because we’re poor! Chang Jingqiu despised us because of this and was worried that we’d reveal her true identity that embarrassed her. This was exactly why Grandmother Chang threatened to cause my son’s misfortunes if this secret was leaked out.”
Huang Pinggui stomped his foot angrily and continued. “Who do the almighty Chang family think they are to look down on us? There are more powerful families out there, but none is as outrageous as the Chang family! We stand here right now in front of everyone to debunk every dirty thing that the Chang family did! Do you have the courage to harm my son now? If anything happens to us, everyone will know this is the Chang family’s doing! Don’t you want respect? Are you looking down on us? You’re worse than pigs or dogs!”
“Chang Jingqiu, by standing here before the crowd, I announce that you’re the daughter of two farmers. You don’t have a noble identity, so you’ve no right to act like you’re Miss High and Mighty who’s more superior than us! You’re always looking down on others, right? You’re the actual one who was born at the bottom of the pyramid! That isn’t the problem frankly, but it’s your self-abasement and guilty conscience that disgraced you! You dared to disown your own parents for identity and status!”
“Everyone, you’re our witnesses right now. Take a look at these evil and wicked people of the Chang family!” Huang Pinggui yelled at the top of his lungs.
The crowd discussed and pointed their fingers at the Chang family. The dotard’s attitude with an incredible fatuity was totally unexpected at all.
Chang Zhixing finally pulled Wang Lixia away and said, “Stop making nonsense!”
“This isn’t nonsense!” Huang Pinggui waved the document in his hand and continued. “This is a report of a genealogical DNA test which proved that we’re Chang Jingqiu’s biological parents. She disowned us and made no attempt to visit us even once, so we’re here today to seek justice for us and our precious son! Chang Jingqiu was willing to sacrifice her only brother for wealth and prosperity.”
Wang Lixia collapsed onto the floor and yelled, “My poor son! We’re good and honest people, but who knows we’d give birth to a vile spawn. The Chang family is heartless and cruel to chase away the only granddaughter and eldest son for a couple of useless idiots and bully us! God, you must see that justice is served. You must punish them for their sins!”
“Ladies and gentlemen, you’re all respectable individuals, so please help us! Is there anyone who’ll punish them for their unreasonable bullies? The Chang family is outrageous to think that they’re the law. Who do they think they are to destroy our lives as they wish? That’s because we gave birth to a vile spawn named Chang Jingqiu. This is retribution; this is karma! She can punish us today, but the Chang family will suffer from her punishment tomorrow!” Wang Lixia tapped her thigh and wailed.
Chang Jingqiu seemed to hear a voice among the crowd. “No wonder Chang Jingqiu went off the grid recently. She’s paralyzed.”
“I think these two are speaking the truth. It also explains why Chang Zhiyuan quitted Changhe.”
“Changhe without Chang Zhiyuan. Tut-tut.” A random stranger shook his head.
“I’ve heard that the Qi family organized a birthday party for the little master upstairs, so why is the Chang family still here?”
“It’s not that they haven’t gone up, they’re not invited at all. I’ve heard that the Qi family only invited Chang Zhiyuan’s family.”
“I’ve heard everything while I was sitting beside the Chang family just now. The Qi family didn’t welcome these people, and that was the reason why they didn’t receive the Qi family’s invitation. They wanted to go upstairs shamelessly but the Qi family disagreed.”
