Chapter 42: I Don’t Have a Daughter Like That
Zhan Jingting saw a glint of surprise in his grandfather’s eyes, a genuine joy from the depths of his heart.
The old man was beaming, unable to contain his smile as he asked, “What are their names? Are they twins? They look exactly alike, I can’t tell which is the brother and which is the younger brother.”
“Great-Grandpa, my name is Lin Yimo, I’m the older brother!”
“Great-Grandpa, my name is Lin Yian, I’m the younger brother!”
Their sweet and innocent voices made the old man’s face change slightly. “Why are they both surnamed Lin?”
“Grandpa, it’s like this.” Zhan Jingting explained concisely, “The children are currently with their mother’s surname because they were raised by her. They only recently came back to my side. Regarding their surname, we’ll change it when we have time.”
“Which family’s daughter?” The old man suddenly looked serious. “How come you suddenly have children? And she left while pregnant? Now she suddenly reappears? Is there something…”
“Grandpa, the children are indeed my flesh and blood. We just had a paternity test done, you can rest assured.” Zhan Jingting knew what he was worried about. The bloodline of a wealthy family couldn’t tolerate any mistakes.
Sitting between the two children, the man stroked their heads with affection. “I’ve already gotten my marriage license with the children’s mother. We are legally married now, so I can’t marry Jiang Qianxue. I hope you understand, Grandpa.”
The old man thought to himself, with my precious grandson’s intelligence, he wouldn’t be tricked by a woman. There must be something between him and the children’s mother, and he must be willing to marry her from the bottom of his heart.
Therefore, the old man immediately burst into laughter again. “One step at a time, one step at a time is good! Hahahaha, that’s great, I’m so happy!”
The children were stunned by the old man with white hair on the other end of the phone. Great-Grandpa is so happy? He was just worried about Mommy!
“Grandpa!” Seeing his laughter too loud, Zhan Jingting coughed twice. “Be a little more reserved! We’re talking about serious matters. Can you stop mentioning Jiang Qianxue?”
Suddenly, the old man became serious again.
“This is how it is, you promised her something, you have to do it. Jiang Uncle is a close friend of your parents, and you and Qianxue have been together since childhood…”
“Grandpa!” The man was getting impatient.
The old man emphasized, “Whether you can be together or not, you have to give her an explanation. Out of courtesy, you have to go there tonight. Don’t let everyone laugh at the Jiang family!”
“The children’s mother has something to do today, I have to go home and take care of the children.” Zhan Jingting now had an excuse. “I just picked them up from kindergarten.”
“Why can’t you understand?” The old man complained. “Take the children with you! In this kind of occasion, there will be plenty of delicious food and drinks. Let the children go and play! This way you can also tell the Jiang family that you won’t marry Jiang Qianxue. Sometimes, you don’t have to say it out loud! The rejected person will be very embarrassed.”
“Yes, Grandpa!” Zhan Jingting smiled. “Good idea, I’ll turn around right now!” On the video call, he said to the driver, “Old Yu, go to the Jiang family!”
“Okay, Young Master Zhan!” Old Yu was also happy, because ever since Young Master Zhan had two children by his side, his life had been different, and he had more smiles on his face.
The Lamborghini drove towards the Jiang family…
In the lively and warm courtyard, Jiang Qianxue, as the only daughter of the Jiang family, knew most of the guests who came to welcome her back tonight.
She sat in her wheelchair, smiling, her mouth sweet!
“Hello uncle, hello aunt, thank you for coming. If you want to eat or drink anything, please don’t be polite. If you need anything, you can also tell the waiter.”
“Qianxue, you’re getting prettier and prettier. Does your leg still hurt? What did the doctor say?” Someone expressed concern.
“It doesn’t hurt much anymore, thank you aunt for your concern.” Jiang Qianxue raised her eyes to speak, the smile on her face as bright as the sequins on her dress, “It’s just a minor fracture, no big deal, it will heal.”
“That’s good.”
Not far away, someone was holding a camera aimed at her, every frame was beautiful.
With a maid accompanying her, she greeted the guests in the courtyard with the demeanor of a hostess.
Although Qianxue had a smile on her face, as the night darkened and the string lights in the courtyard lit up, she kept looking towards the entrance of the courtyard, but she still didn’t see the Lamborghini.
A hint of disappointment rose in her heart.
Is Jingting really not coming?
Even if he has his pride, shouldn’t he consider his parents’ face? Not coming when his elders invited him, it’s really lacking in perspective! Does he really not want to see her?
“Qianxue, did you come back this time because of Young Master Zhan?” A wealthy-looking aunt came over and asked mysteriously.
From the light in her eyes, it was not difficult to see that this aunt was very optimistic about this young couple.
Before Jiang Qianxue could answer, two middle-aged women holding wine glasses came over.
One of them said, “Looking at the entire Silver City, only our Qianxue is worthy of Young Master Zhan.”
“Of course, they are a perfect match, a talented man and a beautiful woman.”
“If this is a century wedding, don’t forget to invite us. No matter how busy we are, we aunts must come to share in the joy!”
Hearing these words, Jiang Qianxue’s cheeks flushed slightly, and the joy in her heart overshadowed the disappointment. “I will definitely send you invitations then.”
“Why hasn’t Young Master Zhan come yet? Is he that busy?”
“Qianxue, is Young Master Zhan coming or not?” Someone glanced towards the entrance of the courtyard, with a hint of complaint in their tone, “He’s a bit insensitive!”
Jiang Qianxue responded with a smile, her heart filled with embarrassment.
At this time, Jiang Xinyi was with Lin Banxia at the long table. She handed her a clean plate, “This dessert looks good, try it?”
Little master, there’s more to this chapter, please continue reading, it gets even better! She said, Xinyi picked up a small piece and put it on her plate, “I already had a small piece.”
“Thank you.” Lin Banxia smiled, her gaze occasionally falling on the girl in the wheelchair not far away, who had a radiant and noble aura, like a moon surrounded by stars.
But at the same time, Lin Banxia caught a glimpse of the melancholy hidden in Miss Jiang’s eyes.
Miss Jiang’s gaze kept drifting towards the courtyard gate.
She was clearly waiting for Zhan Jingting to arrive.
Lin Banxia withdrew her gaze and picked out some pastries. At the same time, she wondered if the man was going to break his word tonight?
“Banxia, you look beautiful today too. I think you’re even prettier than Jiang Qianxue. It’s just that you’re too low-key and always hiding in the corner.”
“She’s the star of the night, naturally a dazzling focus.”
Not far away, Yang Yiming, who had already greeted everyone, looked at Lin Banxia, his expression turning serious.
He had no way to deal with his daughter at this moment, because he was unprepared and didn’t even bring any bodyguards.
He couldn’t just kill his daughter on someone else’s turf.
But he did have a desire to kill her!
However, at this moment, the sharp-eyed media, following his murderous gaze, also saw Lin Banxia, which reminded them of the scene at the wedding.
“Look! Yang Yiming, the president of Lin Group is here, and his estranged daughter is here too!” Someone shouted with a camera in hand, “Great news! An unexpected surprise!”
Several other reporters, alerted by their colleague, also noticed this rare sight.
“Mr. Yang!” Someone ran over with a microphone, “Is that your daughter Lin Banxia? Are you currently estranged from her? Why isn’t there any interaction between you?”
The voice was loud enough for Lin Banxia to hear. She turned her head and saw some people surrounding Yang Yiming.
Yang Yiming’s sinister gaze, like a knife, shot towards her. With the reporters fanning the flames, he couldn’t hide his anger. He pointed at her –
“She’s an unfilial daughter! She ruined her sister’s wedding! Now she wants to take over the company! She’s extremely ambitious and rebellious! Yes, she is Lin Banxia! But I don’t have such a daughter!”
