Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The timing for the banquet was 6:30 pm.
Qin Jiatong was already at home getting ready, with a makeup artist, gown, and all kinds of accessories on standby.
She was so busy that she almost forgot about Qin Yiyi and her birthday.
It was also Qin Yiyi’s birthday today!
So, after lunch, she rested in her room for a while and prepared to go out and find a makeup artist to touch up her makeup. Fortunately, she was in a perfect state to welcome the guests at the party.
In the living room, Mr. Qin, who was reading the newspaper with his head lowered, looked up at her.
His tone was gentle as he said, “Is Jiatong down? Don’t tire yourself out. If there’s anything, call someone else.”
“Thank you, Father. I’m not tired.”
Today was her big day. She would definitely want to appear in front of everyone in the most perfect condition.
Moreover, there was someone she liked to admire.
Pursing her lips, she suddenly remembered something.
“Dad, where’s Mom? Is she out for something?”
It seemed that she didn’t even have lunch at home.
Qin Jiatong’s father glanced at her and said calmly, “I asked her to pick up your sister.”
Sister?
The next moment, the smile on Qin Jiatong’s face immediately disappeared.
“Is that so? Then what did Sister say? She will come over, right?”
An unnatural expression flashed across her face.
She forced her voice to become a little sweeter. “I was just thinking about how to tell you this. No matter what, she is still my sister. We were born on the same day, and my sister stayed in the countryside with my grandparents for so long…”
She gently bit her lower lip and continued very sincerely, “I still have a few sets of gowns in my room that are all new. When Sister comes over later, I will let her wear whatever she likes… and also the few sets of jewelry that Mom bought for me some time ago…”
“You’re a good child.”
Mr. Qin’s face was full of kindness, and his eyes were filled with admiration as he looked at Qin Jiatong.
“Your sister’s matters are between your mother and me. The things that I gave you are yours. Besides, she doesn’t need those.”
What he meant was clearly evident.
Qin Jiatong pursed her lips lightly. Just as she was about to say something else, Mr. Qin had already stood up.
“Let’s go. I happen to be free now, so I’ll send you to the hotel.”
“Thank you, Father.”
Qin Jiatong naturally wouldn’t decline. With a face full of joy, she walked briskly to catch up with her father’s footsteps.
Half past 5 o’clock.
Mrs. Qin appeared alone with a face full of smiles.
Qin Jiatong had just changed into a small gown and came out. Seeing that it was about time, she thought that Mrs. Qin should be back and the guests should be here too. When she came out, she saw Mrs. Qin. With a sweet smile on her face, she grabbed the hem of her skirt and ran over. “Mom, you’re so beautiful.”
“Aiyo, no matter how beautiful Mom is, can she be as beautiful as Mom’s little baby?”
She helped Qin Jiatong stand up steadily and looked at her well-tailored evening gown. There was custom-made jewelry on her neck.
Her eyes were curved and bright, and her teeth were white. She was full of vigor, vitality, and cuteness.
The more she looked at her, the cuter she became!
Mrs. Qin gently patted Qin Jiatong’s hand. “You’ve grown up. After today, you’ll be a big girl.”
“Mom, no matter how old I am, I’m still Mom’s child. I want to be with Mom for the rest of my life.”
“Okay, okay, okay. We won’t be separated.”
Mrs. Qin was very happy that her daughter was so close to her. After holding her hand and giving her some advice, the mother and daughter duo started to chat with the guests who came one after another.
Naturally, they were all flattering Mrs. Qin and praising Qin Jiatong. Soon, many of Qin Jiatong’s friends came too. Mrs. Qin then greeted them and told Qin Jiatong. “You young people go and play by yourselves. Jiatong, take good care of your friends. If you need anything, tell Mom. Go quickly.”
“Thank you, Mom. Thank you for your hard work.”
After Qin Jiatong and the girls left, a middle-aged woman who was on good terms with her smiled and praised, “Your daughter is born well. She’s obedient and smart. A few days ago, my son said that she was often praised as a model student by the teachers at school. Sigh, Mrs. Qin, how did you raise your daughter so well? Please share your experience with us.”
“That’s right, that’s right. Mrs. Qin, don’t hide it…”
Mrs. Qin’s face was full of a proud smile. She was humble but also very pleased with herself.
“What teaching? It’s all because she is smart and self-disciplined. She can learn anything with just a little teaching.”
“Her father and I really haven’t taught her anything much…”
Some felt sour in their hearts, while some were envious.
But no matter what, this daughter of the Qin family was raised and taught well.
She was the kind of child that other families admired!
The banquet was about to begin.
Mrs. Qin was listening to the flattery of the other wives, and she was extremely pleased.
She glanced at Mr. Qin from not far away.
She quickly found an excuse to walk over. “What’s wrong with you? You’re not entertaining the guests. What’s the matter?”
“Where’s Qin Yiyi? Didn’t I ask you to pick her up?”
“Ah, that girl clearly said that she would come over on her own. I asked to give her a ride, but she insisted on riding her own motorcycle…”
Hearing this, Mr. Qin glared at Mrs. Qin. “On what occasion? If she wants to ride a motorcycle, you’re going to let her do it?”
“I…”
Just as she was about to say something, she caught a glimpse of a girl dressed in casual attire at the door from the corner of her eyes. There was a cold and carefree look in the eyes of that girl.
Mrs. Qin’s heart skipped a beat. This wretched girl finally came. However, in the next moment, she flew into a rage and took a few steps to stand in front of Qin Yiyi.
She lowered her voice and said, “Qin Yiyi, what are you wearing? Didn’t I get someone to prepare a gown for you? Go upstairs and change immediately.”
“There’s no need.”
Qin Yiyi lowered her head and looked at the clothes on her body. They were pretty good. They were neither dirty nor damaged. In fact, they were very comfortable!
“You…”
Mr. Qin had already walked over at this moment. “What’s going on? Why are you dressed like this? Didn’t your mother prepare a gown for you?”
“Oh, those are all Qin Jiatong’s. I’m taller than her, so I can’t wear them.”
Hearing this, Mr. Qin glared fiercely at Mrs. Qin, but Mrs. Qin didn’t think much of it.
“I’ve seen those gowns. She can wear them.”
She wouldn’t let this girl steal the limelight from Jiatong today!
“Alright, do what you need to do. I’m just here to take a look.”
Qin Yiyi no longer paid attention to them. She found a corner and began to eat.
The banquet had already begun.
Qin Jiatong was dressed elegantly. In Lu Jinwan’s words, she was like a peacock. She was very soft when it came to accepting gifts!
From time to time, she would glance at Qin Yiyi from the corner of her eyes. Her heart was secretly filled with pride. This was the life she wanted!
However, as long as Qin Yiyi still existed in this world, she would not be the only Miss of the Qin family.
Just as she was thinking, she heard a commotion.
She quickly excused herself with a smile and looked towards the door.
A middle-aged butler appeared on the door with a solemn expression.
“Hello, Mr. Qin. This is a gift from our Old Master to Miss Qin.”
It was from the Gu family!
Qin Jiatong’s eyes lit up as she appeared with a perfect smile on her face. “Thank you, Grandpa Gu. I’m still young, but I didn’t want to bother Grandpa Gu. I like this gift very much. I’ll definitely thank Grandpa Gu personally later!”
Mr. Qin was also smiling. “We’re flattered. Tongtong, why aren’t you taking the gift?”
Qin Jiatong went forward to take the gift with a smile.
Unfortunately, the butler only glanced at her and walked past her to finally stand in front of Qin Yiyi.
“Happy Birthday, Miss Qin. This is a gift from our Old Master. Please accept it!”
Qin Jiatong’s outstretched hand froze in mid-air.
Her face was red, and her eyes were full of anger and embarrassment.
How could the gift be for Qin Yiyi?!
