After the engagement banquet began, Yin Zhaoxue went on stage to thank her relatives. When talking about her mother, Cui Ling's eyes were full of light.
She was about to step forward, but Xia Shi kindly grabbed her.
"The Lu family invited her biological mother, Zheng Qingqing."
I helped to prepare for the engagement banquet and made it very clear about the ceremony in the summer.
When Cui Ling heard this, his face changed instantly.
She clearly remembered that yesterday Yin Zhaoxue told herself that Zheng Qingqing would not come, and that she would appear in front of the public as Yin Zhaoxue's mother.
Cui Ling thought Xia Shi was lying to her, but then she saw Zheng Qingqing wearing a standard uniform appearing in front of everyone and walking towards Yin Zhaoxue.
Zheng Qingqing looks medium-sized, but her body is capable and shrewd, which is something that Cui Ling, a pampered beauty, does not have.
Zheng Qingqing is also well-known internationally. When she comes, Yin Zhaoxue's eyes are full of admiration and pride.
Compared to being perfunctory to Gu Ya, she only thought Zheng Qingqing was her only mother.
"Mom, I knew you would come."
Yin Zhaoxue hugged her directly.
The mother and daughter are in love on stage, and Cui Ling, who just told everyone that Yin Zhaoxue is his daughter, had a particularly bad expression.
Someone whispered.
"Isn't Yin Zhaoxue's father Yin Shichao? Then isn't her mother Cui Ling?"
"Yes, she told us just now that she is Yin Zhaoxue's mother."
"What do you know? Cui Ling is Yin Zhaoxue's stepmother. Yin Zhaoxue gave her father some face and called her mother. Do you really think it's her mother?"
"What should we do? We just gave her all the gifts we were going to give Yin Zhaoxue's mother. We shouldn't have to take them back now."
"It's not Yin Zhaoxue's biological mother, of course we have to take it back. It's Yin Zhaoxue, not her stepmother..."
The discussions in the crowd made Cui Ling even more unbearable.
Xia Shi stood beside her, looking at her embarrassed look, and couldn't help but sympathize.
She asked, "If I weren't weak when I was born, would you treat me the same as Yin Zhaoxue now?"
Cui Ling came to her senses and looked at her, with a touch of complexity in her eyes.
In fact, she had to admit that Xia Shi has been very outstanding since she was a child and is not inferior to Yin Zhaoxue at all. If it weren't for herself, Xia Shi would definitely not be like this now.
More importantly, Xia Shi was really filial and sensible. When he was young, he often changed his methods to make her happy and told all his classmates that he was her mother.
It’s not like Zhaoxue, who coaxes himself on the surface, but in fact he has arranged his biological mother long ago.
But......
Cui Ling clenched his fist: "You and Zhaoxue are simply incomparable."
Xia Shi originally thought that he would no longer feel heartbroken, but he still felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this answer, just like the cold wind suddenly pouring into his chest.
After Cui Ling finished speaking, she saw Yin Zhaoxue get off the stage and immediately walked towards her, wanting to ask what was going on.
Xia Shi looked at her from afar and stood with Yin Zhaoxue, which looked more like a mother and daughter than Zheng Qingqing.
She turned around and put on Cui Ling's hair before returning to the banquet.
After walking a few steps, Xia Mu blocked her: "Sister, have you thought about how to get the money from the Xia family back?"
Xia Shi didn't expect that he had the nerve to ask himself, and couldn't help but ask: "Do you think that if you give money to others, others will return it to you?"
During this period, she handed over all the tasks of investigating the stupid things that Xia Mu did back then to lawyer Jiang Mingche.
