Reborn As the School Hunk's Dearest Daughter-Chapter 282 - : Face Slapping at the Birthday Banquet (4)
Chapter 282: Face Slapping at the Birthday Banquet (4)
After saying this, Cen Juan’s phone rang. He picked it up by his ear and heard the little old man’s heart-wrenching cries.” Teacher Cen, you’re too ruthless. You took away my most precious Xuande Furnace the moment you came and even gave me a hundred yuan to get rid of it. You’re simply insulting me…”
That’s right, this little old man was also a student who had attended a few lectures by Cen Juan. He was a crazy antique collector, and it was Cen Juan who had arranged for him to come and put on the show today.
Cen Juan raised his eyebrows and said calmly,” I’ll give you 100 million.””
“Is that a matter of money?” The little old man was indignant.” That’s my darling…”
Cen Juan licked his lips and snorted lazily.” I’ll let you listen to a lecture for free next time.””
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end before the little old man’s useless words came through.” If there’s another chance, please humiliate me as much as you want!”
...
After hanging up the phone, Cen tilted his head and looked at the young girl walking in front of him. He pressed the tip of his tongue against the back of his molars and chuckled.
He wanted to treat the child well, but he didn’t have a suitable identity and reason yet. He could only use this sneaky method.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of Old Madam Fu’s birthday banquet.
The Fu family was a top-notch wealthy family in the capital. Their connections, financial resources, and strength were all top-notch existences in the upper-class circle. Those who were qualified to receive invitations were all celebrities in the political and business circles.
Before the time was up, the guests were already impatiently entering.
The banquet was arranged in the back garden of the Fu family’s old residence, the courtyard house.
Any one of them was a big shot, but they were gathered in groups of three to five like cabbages, drinking and chatting.
“Damn, have you heard? The Fu family has found their granddaughter who was left outside. Today, we will be able to see which little princess has such a good life!”
“Granddaughter? Wasn’t it the young master? Where could the Fu family find a granddaughter?”
“The Fu family is big and powerful. How can we guess? I also heard from the servants of the Fu family that Old Madam Fu plans to use the name of birthday celebration to publicize the true colors of the young master and his granddaughter!”
At this moment, Jiang Yan held Lan Yaqin’s hand and walked in leisurely under everyone’s stunned gazes.
In order to be in the limelight, Jiang Yan put in all her effort to dress up. Her tall gown made her fair and beautiful. She had exquisite makeup on her face, which highlighted the advantages of her facial features. She was elegant and moving.
“She’s so beautiful. This is the number one socialite in the capital, Miss Jiang Yan. Her temperament is indeed extraordinary.”
“Speaking of which, Miss Jiang is really pitiful. Originally, when she was adopted into the Fu family’s first branch, she became the only daughter of the Fu family. In the end, the third branch of the Fu family has a granddaughter.”
“That’s not necessarily true. It’s said that the young master and his granddaughter are both from a small city. How can they compare to those who have received advanced etiquette education? Miss Jiang was smart, talented, and a famous author. She was better than her granddaughter who came out of nowhere. Old Madam Fu was so smart. How could she dote on a brainless person?”As soon as these words came out, they instantly received everyone’s approval.
Although everyone thought that their granddaughter was the proper little princess of the Fu family, wealthy families relied on their ability to convince the public. Those without talent would only become the butt of jokes.
When she heard everyone say that her granddaughter was inferior to her, Jiang Yan’s originally uncomfortable expression barely looked better.
Lan Yaqin patted Jiang Yan’s hand and said,” Yanyan Yan, my granddaughter will be here soon. I’ve already asked around and found out that she’s from the countryside. She can’t be compared to you at all. You have to seize this opportunity and put her down so that I can hold my head high in front of the Third household, understand?””
Jiang Yan obediently agreed.” Okay, Mom.””
Lan Yaqin still had to socialize, so she let Jiang Yan play by herself.
Su Xinmei also came over at this time and circled around Jiang Yan.” Wow, Yanyan, you’re so beautiful today. I saw the expensive gown you’re wearing on the Internet. The Fu family treats you so well!”
Jiang Yan felt very comfortable hearing such nice words, but her attitude was very humble.” It was all arranged by Grandma.”
After several blows from before, she was no longer as confident as before that the Fu family would dote on her.
She just wanted to take every step and stabilize everything she had. Benefits were the most important. Her goal was to stabilize her footing.
Su Xinmei toot.” I heard that the Fu family found their granddaughter? Have you seen that granddaughter?”
Jiang Yan’s eyes dimmed and she shook her head gently.” It’s almost time. She’ll see it when she comes.””
“I hope I don’t scare the two of you to death!”Su Luoshui said coldly with a glass of red wine in her hand.
She couldn’t wait to see her cub appear and slap the two white lotuses in the face.
Jiang Yan was smart enough to hear the hidden meaning behind Su Luoshui’s words. She smiled and asked,”Does Eldest Miss Su know who her youngest granddaughter is?””
Su Xinmei rolled her eyes. That little granddaughter is just a wild girl from the countryside. What’s there to be scared of? In front of you, Yanyan, that little granddaughter is probably so inferior that she can’t raise her head. Didn’t you hear everyone saying that?!”
Su Luoshui couldn’t be bothered with them. She looked back and suddenly lit up.” Kid, you’re here!”
Everyone looked over and gasped.
Fu Ting was wearing a starry sky dress today. The design of the straps revealed her cold white arms and delicate collarbones. The dress gradually changed upwards, and as she walked, she looked like a dancing blue butterfly, walking in the sea of stars.

The young girl’s features were extremely beautiful. Her long black hair draped over her shoulders, and her deer-like eyes were like translucent petals soaked in water, pure and beautiful.
Everyone thought, Where did this little fairy come from?
“She’s so beautiful. Who’s this? Which family’s young miss? This face, this temperament, even ten Jiang Yans couldn’t compare!”
Hearing this, Jiang Yan’s expression changed slightly, but she quickly returned to her normal expression.
Su Luoshui held Fu Ting’s arm and looked at her with sparkling eyes. Her hands were itching to rub her, but she was afraid of ruining her hairstyle.” Son, why are you so cute today? Why are you here alone?””
Fu Ting blinked and looked very obedient.” It’s really boring upstairs. Grandma hasn’t come to find me, so I came down to get some fresh air.”
She was talking about upstairs. Someone with sharp ears heard her and exclaimed,” Is this our little granddaughter?”
“How could she be a granddaughter?!”Su Xinmei walked over with a cold smile and a look of disdain.” Fu Ting, why are you everywhere? This is Old Madam Fu’s birthday banquet. Is anyone allowed in? Don’t think that you can sneak in and take advantage just because you have a good relationship with Fu Pei!”
