Rebirth of a Fashionista: This Life Is Soo Last Season

Chapter 156 - That's Enough!

The protagonists of tonight's banquet finally went on stage.

When Xu Qing and Sheng Jiaoyang pushed Grandfather Yang's wheelchair on stage, everyone understood that these two were the main protagonists of tonight's banquet. Sure enough, Grandfather Yang announced that he'd treat Xu Qing as his own daughter, and Xu Qing's daughter would now naturally be his granddaughter.

"They're so lucky!"

"I heard that Mr Yang's own daughter and granddaughter have already passed away, and now he's acknowledged these two with great fanfare. Did he simply look for a stand-in or is that woman his illegitimate daughter? I don't believe that he'd acknowledge someone completely unrelated to him without rhyme nor reason."

"The young girl over there is a celebrity. With such a powerful backer, it's no wonder she rose to fame so quickly."

"..."

Pan Zihui and Jiang Yin stood together in silence for a long time as they listened to the soft murmurs beside them.

"Haha, Xu Qing is in luck!" Jiang Yin coldly sneered.

Pan Zihui didn't speak. He simply stared at Xu Qing, who was smiling shyly in a graceful manner as she stood next to Grandfather Yang on the stage. The complex emotions stirring in his heart were about to overflow. If one were to ask him if he regretted it, he wouldn't know it either. In any case, his heart would be in turmoil every time he saw Xu Qing, reminding him of the feeling he had when they'd first met.

Meanwhile, another married couple also had complicated looks on their faces.

Qi Yonggao was also staring at the woman on the stage. After all, she was his unforgettable first love. His heart inevitably fluttered when he saw her again after so many years, but he was no longer that young boy from back then and understood who the most important to him at present was.

"How do you feel, seeing Xu Qing again?" Mrs Qi jealously asked.

Qi Yonggao hurriedly wrapped his arm over his wife's shoulder and replied, "Nothing special, it's good to see that everyone is doing well!"

"I actually hoped that she was leading a bad life. If that's the case, then I could proudly tell her that it was her loss for rejecting you back then."

"But, it would've been my loss if she'd accepted me back then because I would've missed out on my dear wife!" Qi Yonggao softly coaxed.

Mrs Qi chuckled. She knew that her husband was saying that to make her happy, but she gladly fell for it.

At this moment, a group of youngsters were also chatting amongst themselves.

"The rich man Xu Jiaojiao was referring to earlier turns out to be Mr Yang."

"Before arriving here, I heard my grandfather say that Mr Yang was dead set on acknowledging Xu Qing and Xu Jiaojiao. Moreover, he's even going to pass his family businesses on to them. Fudge! That mother-and-daughter pair is truly something! They can inherit such a significant amount of wealth without even lifting a finger."

"No wonder Xu Jiaojiao is so arrogant. After all, her livelihood is assured with such a powerful backer. Indeed, if she inherits Mr Yang's assets, she gets the right to be lofty."

"Mingyue, since Xu Jiaojiao currently has such a powerful backer, how could she possibly seduce your father? Could it be that you've misunderstood him? Perhaps, he only paid attention to Xu Jiaojiao because he was aware of the relationship between Xu Jiaojiao and Mr Yang!"

Pan Mingyue hesitated. With Xu Jiaojiao's current standing, there was indeed no need for her to seduce someone of her dad's age.

On stage, Grandfather Yang went on to say, "My daughter, Xiao Qing, will get married on the 29th of this month. The hard times are over and the good times are just beginning for her because she's found the happiness that belongs to her!" Speaking up here, Grandfather Yang suddenly waved at the audience.
