Chapter 572 The Real and Fake Heiress' Birthday Party
The young woman beside her asked curiously, Anran, I heard that your Xu family adopted a daughter as well. She's already 20 years old, though. Why did your family think of adopting her? Could she be an illegitimate daughter?
Whether she's an illegitimate daughter or not, she can't snatch things from Wen Xi! That's too rude!
Xu Anran had a helpless expression and pretended to be magnanimous. Xi'er, I didn't expect Xi Xi to go so far. I'll apologize on her behalf. Don't be angry.
Cousin, why are you apologizing?! This has nothing to do with you!
Xu Anran smiled lightly. Xi'er, see if there's any jewelry you like here. I'll give it to you as an apology for Xi Xi.
Then, Eldest Miss Xu waved her hand and instructed, I'll be booking this shop today. Don't let anyone disturb us.
At this moment, Gu Zheng had just brought Qiao Xi to Jade Pavilion. Unexpectedly, the manager came out in a hurry with a troubled expression. President Gu, this shop has already been booked. I We don't have a choice either. President Gu, please forgive us.
Song Shiyu was displeased. No way! I called to make an appointment yesterday and have already paid the deposit. Now, you're telling us someone has already booked the venue. Why did you agree to it so readily yesterday, then?
The manager was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly explained, The employees in the shop didn't know that President Gu had made an appointment. A customer happened to book the entire venue, SO I'm really sorry. This is our mistake. President Gu, we'll refund the money immediately. Why don't
Qiao Xi did not care. It was just a shop. It did not matter if she had to come again another day, so she raised her eyes to look at Gu Zheng. Then let's go shopping elsewhere first. We'll come back later.
Gu Zheng narrowed his eyes and glanced at Song Shijing. The group was about to leave when a woman's voice came from the shop.
My birthday is coming up soon. Thank you all for coming to Li City to attend my birthday banquet. You're all my good friends, so I want to give you all some gifts. Feel free to pick out any of the jewelry here. I'll pay for them.
Qiao Xi's expression froze.
The person in the shop was Xu Anran?
The woman's excited voice sounded. Anran, you're really too kind. As expected of the eldest daughter of the Xu family, you're so generous! However, we're here to attend your birthday banquet. We should be the ones giving you gifts. How can we let you give us gifts instead?
Xu Anran said generously, After all, this birthday banquet isn't just my own. You have to prepare two gifts. Mom is embarrassed to ask you to spend so much, so she instructed me to bring you here and let you choose the gifts you like. Take it as a gift in return for your gifts.
Disdain flashed across everyone's eyes. The adopted daughter was not worthy of receiving their gifts. They had just casually bought some gadgets to lessen her embarrassment.
Anran, you're really kind. You always think of that adopted sister of yours.
It's clearly your birthday, yet you want your adopted sister to join. Anran, how can you tolerate this? Your identities are different, so how can you hold a birthday banquet together?
Xu Anran said gently, I don't care about this. She's my younger sister, so I naturally have to take care of her. I've been the only child in the family since I was young. Actually, I'm very lonely too. I'm very happy that Xi Xi can come to the Xu family to accompany me! Don't talk about Xi Xi anymore. Quick, choose the jewelry you like.
Anran, this jade bracelet is really beautiful. Did you buy it here too?
Xu Anran smiled. No, it's a birthday gift from Grandma.
Your grandmother? The Yin family in Shengdu? Madam Xu's mother is the eldest daughter of the Yin family. My grandmother said that when the eldest daughter of the Yin family married the young master of the Yun family, the entire Luo City was shocked.
So, it's a gift from the Yin family. No wonder it's so expensive. Anran is too blessed to have such a loving grandmother. The Yin family is a famous family in the world!
Qiao Xi smiled coldly. When did she agree to celebrate her birthday with Xu Anran?
Song Shiyu muttered in a low voice, Is the Xu family crazy?! Xu Anran, a fake daughter, is putting on such a show. She even said that Young Madam is an adopted daughter? How unreasonable!
As for the Yin family, they were rich and powerful. They should not be as horrible as the Xu family. Why did they give the fake granddaughter a birthday gift but not their biological granddaughter?
