On Saturday, the birthday of Fang Clan's chairman, Fang Qirin, shocked the entire Z City. All the reporters from the major newspapers and magazines hoped to get the first-hand information, but the Fang Clan spread the news to the outside world, claiming that mysterious distinguished guests would arrive at that time. At the same time, they were also very wary of reporters.
When the Fang family made their move, many of the reporters were dissatisfied. They felt that the Fang family was putting on airs in spite of their big name.
Although the Fang family was one of the Four Great Clans in Z city, because they still lacked the qualifications and had always been attached to the Yi family, there were quite a few people who wanted to watch the show.
The birthday feast started at half past eleven, and at ten o'clock, guests began arriving one after another. Just the expensive, famous cars filled up the parking lot outside the Fang Residence, and many reporters squatted and secretly took photos. Most of the photos were taken by wealthy businessmen and famous gentry.
There were also many reporters who wanted to sneak into the Fang Residence to take pictures, but unfortunately, the security of the Fang Residence was extremely strict today.
It was almost 11 p.m. when the family arrived. The sharp-eyed reporters quickly went up to take photos. Iris, who was sitting in the car, raised her chin with a proud look. She had obviously been used to this.
On the other hand, she frowned and was a little repulsed by the flashing lights outside her car window. It was as if the embarrassing scene from her previous life had hit her again. She couldn't help but feel flustered.
The Fang family arranged for people to disperse the reporters who were surrounding them and had them lead the way. They brought Yi's car into the Fang Residence's car park and cut off any thoughts that the reporter Xiang had of coming over to ask about it.
"Damn." Quite a few reporters were frowning and complaining.
She turned around and looked at the reporters who could not catch up with her. Her face was cold, too, as in her previous life. The Fang family was under strict guard, but in the end, they were still snuck in by a few journalists with ulterior motives.
"What are you looking at?" "Are you disappointed that you didn't get caught by the reporters?"
Ilan turned around and shot a cold glance at Ariel. When he looked up and saw that she seemed to be observing him in the rearview mirror, he said, "They look like …" "It's quite pitiful."
"Swish." Ilyo rolled her eyes. 'This Ilyo is so hypocritical. What is she pretending to be?' Remembering some of the information Fang Fang had revealed, the corner of her lips curled up. 'Today I will make Ilyo live a life worse than death. Tomorrow Ilyo will take her to the amusement park.
Remembering the last time when Ilya had missed her appointment, Ilya still felt wronged. Ilya would buy a schoolbag for Ilya, attend Ilyo's parents meeting, and even personally send Ilyo off. What about her, the real Ilya's eldest daughter?
She and Fang Fang Fang stood at the entrance of the amusement park for the whole afternoon. She saw other children walking in and out of the amusement park with their parents, smiling, eating colorful cotton candy, and taking the balloon from the clown. The scene was too eye-catching, giving her a dull slap on the face. It didn't matter if she went to the amusement park or not, what she wanted was the care of Ihoun, the attention of Ihoun! She was the daughter of Iridescent and Fang Fang Fang!
Iriel's self-esteem was deeply stung by Ihoun's eccentric behavior. She was angry and aggrieved.
Ever since Ilan, an outsider, had entered her world, she had felt that everything that originally belonged to her was about to be destroyed and taken away, and her sky was about to collapse …
The more she hated him, the more terrified she became …
However, all of this was temporary. Soon, it would be the past. After today, she would still be publicly acknowledged as the eldest daughter of the Yi family. After that, no one would look down on her anymore. No one would even remember her …
This wonderful thought lingered in Ariel's mind. Her heart became clearer, and the smile on her face became brighter. She was only able to maintain this state of mind until she officially entered the house.
As soon as he stepped into the Yi residence, all kinds of people surrounded him. They were all flattering him and praising him … All of this seemed so sudden and yet it made sense.
Yi Rui's face was dark. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. Her eyes were like sharp daggers. She wanted to dig out the tender flesh of her body, blind her, and scratch her smiling face …
Aware of Aria's anger, Fang Fang gently put her hand on her shoulder. With a smile on her face, she said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Endure it. Her arrogance can only come now."
"Right." Only after hearing Fang Fang's words did Rui'er let go of her clenched fist. Her eyes, however, were still filled with hatred as she glared at Iren.
"Let's go, Mommy will bring you to Granddad's birthday." Fang Fang Fang suggested. At any rate, standing here was just adding fuel to the fire. As soon as Ihorn came in, he was called away by her brother. It seemed like they were discussing business matters.
"Alright." Iris nodded and glared at Fang Fang Fang for a second time. She then left the living room with Fang Fang. When they reached the stairs, the maids bowed and greeted them politely. It was only then that Iris calmed down. Did you see that?
Not only in the Yi Residence, but in the Fang Residence, she was also a VIP guest.
Ilya was surrounded. She didn't have time to talk to Ilya. She had just used her power to listen to their conversation, and she already knew why they were surrounding her.
Not because she was Ilan, not because she was the Eldest Miss of the Yi Family, but because she was a daughter-in-law of the Long Family.
It had to be said that although dealing with so many people with ulterior motives was tiring, it was much easier than protecting themselves from others. It seemed like back then when she and Long Tianqi were discussing terms and conditions, it was still very wise. At least Long Tianqi's "big net" had helped her filter out a lot of the unremarkable and disorderly "small fish and shrimp".
Thinking of this, an arm suddenly reached out from behind her and pulled her into his embrace. Yi Lan You turned her head and saw Long Tian Qi using a warning gaze to scan the crowd. The corners of his mouth were always slightly raised, making it difficult for anyone to see his mood, "Sorry everyone, I want to be alone with my fiancée for a while."
"Young Master Long, please go ahead." Seeing this, everyone sensibly stepped aside. They also exchanged glances. It was unknown if they were envious of Ilan's good fortune, or were surprised by Long Tianqi's boldness — after all, it wasn't a good thing to openly hug and cuddle at someone else's birthday banquet, but who told him to be Young Master Long? It was fine if everyone else had seen it.
