"Okay, let's all go to work." Song Qiubai said, not a few hours before the start of the banquet, she doesn't want to go on business trips then.

Uncle Cui led everyone to get busy again.

Today, apart from relatives and close friends of Gong family, Gong Liangji and Song Qiubai also asked Gong Qingyao to invite her friends. Qin Ze attended as representative of Qin family, so Gong Qingyao invited Ai Xiaoyun and Qiu Yuan.

They heard that their daughter only had two friends, and both of them were acquainted at her company, Gong Liangji and Song Qiubai felt distressed again. Finally Gong Liangji said, "Or, if there are any close friends in the circle, just invite them to the family dinner?"

With this, Gong Qingyao also invited Mao Liqiang, Fang Jiayue, Lu Yongyi and Qu Yi. But Qu Yi had something to do outside the city and couldn’t come back temporarily.

When Ai Xiaoyun and Qiu Yuan learned that they were going to participate in the Gong family’s banquet, they were excited all night. They put aside their work for the time being and went to buy dresses. They each spent more than half a month's salary, even so they were happy. After all, as colleagues from the same company also Gong Qingyao's agent and assistant, they couldn't shame Gong Qingyao.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, many relatives and friends had already arrived, and Gong Liangji introduced Gong Qingyao one by one.

"This is your aunt." Gong Liangji said.

Gong Qingyao said to the side, "Hello, Aunt."

The aunt saw that the expression on Gong Qingyao's face was too cold, and felt a little unhappy, but seeing Gong Liangji standing on the side, she didn't say much.

"This is your cousin."

If Qiu Yuan and Ai Xiaoyun were here at this moment, they would definitely feel that Gong Qingyao was very different. After all, Gong Qingyao, who never laugh, had a faint smile at the corner of her mouth. But in the eyes of other people that met her for the first time, they felt that Gong Qingyao's expression was cold and indifferent. They even felt that Gong Qingyao looked down on them. The banquet hadn't even started yet, but some people were already feeling more or less uncomfortable.

...

Gong Liangji introduced Gong Qingyao around for more than half an hour. Only stop when she already felt dry and unbearable. After the round, he found Gong Qingyao standing beside him calmly, so he called the servant to ask for two glasses of lemonade. Gong Qingyao drank half of the drink and only then she felt better. 

"Liangji, congratulations." A booming voice came.

Gong Liangji immediately smiled and walked over, "It turns out to be Second Brother Qin, Qingyao, this is Second Uncle Qin."

The so-called second uncle Qin was Qin Tianhe, Qin Ze's father. The ones who came to the Gong family house with him were Qin Ze and his eldest son Qin Haoye.

"Second Uncle Qin." Gong Qingyao said.

Qin Tianhe nodded, "Hello, Qingyao. We meet again."

Gong Liangji was shocked, when did his daughter and Qin Tianhe meet? Could it be because of Qin Ze? Gong Liangji had no more turn to think about the situation now.

Qin Tianhe looked at Gong Liangji, "Liangji, your daughter is really good." Who would have thought that Gong Qingyao was the daughter of Gong family who had been lost for many years. The most important thing was Gong Qingyao's ability. He had seen it before, and even Tang Ruihe couldn't compare with her. 

"Of course." Speaking of this, Gong Liangji was very proud.

The envy in Qin Tianhe's eyes flashed, and then he looked at Gong Qingyao, "Qingyao, this is Qin Haoye. Qin Ze's elder brother."

Qin Haoye on the side nodded slightly to Gong Qingyao, "If Qingyao doesn't dislike it, you can call me Brother Qin."

But then he heard someone suddenly talk behind him, "That's not okay, the Qin family's eldest brother is me. You are the second brother at best."

"It turns out that Haoran is here." Qin Tianhe said, "Come here."

Gong Liangji introduced, "This is the eldest son of your First Uncle Qin Tianrui, Qin Haoran."

Qin Haoran came over, "Hello Qingyao. I am Qin Haoran."

Gong Qingyao nodded, seeing that Qin Ze on the side finally had a place to speak, he said, "Congratulations, you finally found your family."

Gong Qingyao said, "Thank you."

Qin Tianhe glanced at his little son, and sighed silently in his heart. Seeing this, he thought it would be really difficult to catch Qingyao.

…

At five o'clock, Qiu Yuan and Ai Xiaoyun came. Although the two of them knew that Gong family house would be very large and luxurious, they were still taken aback when they really came, but they kept their faces as calm as possible.

When there was no one around, Qiu Yuan whispered, "Sister Yao, your house is too big. Will you get lost if you walk around?"

Gong Qingyao said, "No." The Gong family house were all facing north and south, remembering the direction, you wouldn't get lost at all.

When Song Qiubai saw his daughter’s agent and assistants came, she also said hello. Ai Xiaoyun and Qiu Yuan were obviously flattered. They knew in their hearts that if there was no relationship with Gong Qingyao, let alone Song Qiubai taking the initiative to say hello, even the two of them wouldn’t be able to see Song Qiubai's face at all.

"Uncle Cui, you find someone to take Xiaoyun and the others to the living room first." Song Qiubai said, and then looked at Qiu Yuan and Ai Xiaoyun, "Don't be restrained, please be comfortable just like you are at home."

"Thank you Mrs. Song," the two said.

Uncle Cui arranged for a servant to take Qiu Yuan and Ai Xiaoyun to the living room first.

After a while, Fang Jiayue also came. Today she wore a white dress. After seeing Gong Qingyao, she said sincerely, "Congratulations, Qingyao, I didn't expect you to be a child of Gong family." She didn't know if Gong Qingyao would continue to work in showbiz in the future. Based on acting, Fang Jiayue thought Gong Qingyao was quite powerful.

"Thank you." Gong Qingyao said.

Knowing that Gong Qingyao had to receive guests, Fang Jiayue also went to the living room first. 

And then Lu Yongyi and Mao Liqiang also came. When they learned Gong Qingyao's identity, Lu Yongyi was left with a wry smile. This time the gap between the two was even greater. He was very grateful that he didn't say his feelings before. He walked to Gong Qingyao and took away the bitterness in his heart. He said generously, "Congratulations, Qingyao."

Mao Liqiang also said embarrassingly, "Congratulations." Who would have thought that Gong Qingyao was not only a metaphysical master, but also the daughter of Gong family?

As a person with many experiences, Gong Liangji could of course see the hidden feelings in Lu Yongyi's eyes. He was happy that so many people liked his daughter, but then he was a little worried about his daughter being taken away. After Lu Yongyi left, Gong Liangji saw Gong Qingyao still looked indifferent. He knew that Gong Qingyao had no other thoughts about Lu Yongyi, and he was relieved. But then Gong Liangji thought that in the future, his daughter would probably fall in love, if yes what would he do?

At this moment, Gong Liangji began to worry again. Gong Qingyao greeted the guests, and she didn't know that her father’s heart was entangled.

"Liangji, why you have this expression on the day of rejoicing?" A middle-aged man asked.

Gong Liangji was a little worried, and just said, "I am happy." After speaking, he didn't want to continue this topic with the other party, and said, "Qingyao, this is Uncle Qiao Chengcai, and this is Aunt Zhao."

Before Gong Liangji had finished speaking, the young woman standing next to Qiao Chengcai said, "So you are Gong Qingyao, I am Qiao Xinan, brother Qin Ze's childhood sweetheart."

"Hello." Gong Qingyao expression still didn't seem to fluctuate greatly.

"Xinan, don't mess around," The young man behind her said, "Sister Qingyao, don't mind my sister’s personality."

Gong Liangji said, "This is Qiao Xinan's brother Qiao Yi."

Seeing Gong Qingyao's lack of expression, Qiao Xinan felt a little upset, and because of the urging of her parents, she had to leave temporarily. At half past five, all the guests had already arrived.

Gong Liangji took Gong Qingyao to the living room. As soon as the host appeared, the huge hall immediately calmed down. Gong Liangji said, "Thank you for coming."

There was a round of applause from the audience. After the applause was over, Gong Liangji continued, "I invite you all over today, just to tell everyone that we finally found our daughter, Gong Qingyao."

With that, Gong Liangji pointed to Gong Qingyao, who nodded slightly to everyone.

At this time, a discordant voice sounded from the audience, "Didn't the daughter of Gong family died a few years ago?"

Gong Liangji's face froze, and then resumed as usual, "This news was wrong, that’s why we solve the misunderstanding."

"How does uncle know that she must be your own? Is there a paternity test?"

It was strange to recognize Gong Qingyao without a paternity test. But Gong Liangji and Song Qiubai could be very sure that Gong Qingyao was their daughter, so they never thought about doing one. In terms of her face, it could be seen that she was indeed the daughter of the couple, so they never thought about it. So they didn't do this paternity test at all.

Seeing that Gong Liangji didn’t speak, the young man in the audience knew that Gong Qingyao didn’t do a paternity test when she entered the Gong family’s door. "This one, please come up with a convincing evidence."

"Yes, that's how it should be."

"No, the Gong family already made such an announcement, so the evidence should be obtained."

Qin Ze looked at the person who was speaking. This person was the child of a cousin from Song Qiubai's natal family.

Seeing this scene, Qiao Xinan was very happy at first, but when she turned around, she saw Qin Ze’s expression while looking at the person who was speaking, and her heart began to feel upset again. What was so good about this Gong Qingyao? She had accidentally seen the picture on the lock screen of Qin Ze’s phone was Gong Qingyao.

Qiao Xinan’s sixth sense let her know that Qin Ze liked Gong Qingyao. So when she saw Gong Qingyao today, Qiao Xinan deliberately said that she and Qin Ze were childhood sweethearts. But Gong Qingyao didn’t care at all. Thinking of this, Qiao Xinan felt even more annoyed.

Standing in front, Qin Tianhe shook his head silently. Even if Gong Qingyao was not a child of his Qin family, he wanted to recognize her as his, let alone that she was most likely a child from Gong family. These relatives, the eyes were too short-sighted.

"We suggest that Liangji issue a personal appraisal!"

"Yes, the blood of Gong family should not be contaminated."

Qin Ze sneered, "The blood of Gong family is equal to royal family? The kings in ancient times didn’t even dare to say such things, so why did relatives of the Gong family dare to say these things?"

"Although they are not of royal blood, we have to figure out the facts. If the paternity test is done, isn’t it also a good thing for Miss Gong?"

Most of the people present didn’t believe that Gong Qingyao was born to Gong Liangji and Song Qiubai, so they had to look at paternity test result.
