Gu Bei chuckled and said to Shi Nian, “Yun Nan sure is good at making her grandmother happy!”
Shi Nian stared at Yun Nan with a smile, his eyes shining. Gu Bei whispered to him, “You gotta work harder, boy! You can’t let such a good girl slip through your fingers!”
Shi Nian looked at Gu Bei in shock. Gu Bei had a smug look on his face and kept his gaze on the laughing Chen Yao and Yun Nan, deliberately ignoring Shi Nian. Shi Nian opened his mouth but could say nothing in the end.
Gu Bei once again whispered, “Don’t worry, we all have high hopes for you.”
Shi Nian smiled. He also lowered his voice and replied, “Alright. Thanks for the vote of confidence, Grandpa. I hope you’ll lend me a hand during crucial moments!”
“Hmph!” Gu Bei stuck his nose in the air.
Shi Nian laughed and sighed, “I’ve never wooed a girl before; I have no idea what to do! I need help!”
Gu Bei rolled his eyes at him. “I don’t see what’s so difficult about it. As the saying goes, ‘a persistent pursuer can soften the staunchest lady’s heart! I can tell she’s more ooen to vour advances since returning from Lu Town. You iust need to put in more effort, kid.”
“I’m afraid I might scare her off,” Shi Nian said in a hushed voice.
Gu Bei rolled his eyes at him again, and Shi Nian smiled in return. “What are you two whispering about over there?” Chen Yao playfully chided.
Gu Bei cleared his throat and answered, “It’s nothing, honey. We were just discussing what to wear to the ceremony. We also wanted to wear something festive.”
Chen Yao looked at him in mock askance, saying, “Don’t tell me you two want matching outfits as well. You should match with Shi Kong instead; you guys would make a more convincing pair of brothers!”
Yun Nan laughed so hard that she collapsed into Chen Yao’s arms. After Yun
Nan and Shi Nian left, Chen Yao asked Gu Bei, “What didyou say to Shi Nian?” “I told him we could tell that he and Yun Nan are a fake couple,” Gu Bei said.
“Why are you so impatient?” Chen Yao scolded him. “I think the two of them are quite good right now. There’s no need to rush; let things play out naturally.”
Gu Bei shook his head. “No way! You never know what will happen in the future. Look at the mess Gu Fei is in! Shi Nian is a good man; we wouldn’t want our Yun Nan to lose him. She has to keep an eye on him.”
Chen Yao chuckled. “Hey, our Yun Nan is also a gem! Shi Nian will be sorry if he doesn’t cherish her!”
Gu Bei nodded. “You’re right, but we have to give them a push. Why wait when we know those two will be happy together? And if they’re happy, we’re happy!’
‘ That’s true,’ Chen Yao silently admitted. The two of them were only able to get over the pain of losing their daughter so quickly because they had Yun Nan around. Xiao He had chosen and sent this child to their side; she was their blessing.
Everyone in the Gu main family was in a bad mood, but they still had to force a smile onto their faces to deal with the guests.
Yun Liu was dressed to the nines today because this gathering was organized in her name. She was the star today. There wouldn’t be another opportunity as good as this to elevate her fame. Yun Liu and Tan Ning had made careful arrangements beforehand. This was the most important comeback for her after Shi Xiu backstabbed her.
Chang Hui and Bai Jie both agreed to their arrangements. First, there was a
press conference in the afternoon. Tan Ning personally hosted the event and weaved an emotional story about Yun Liu’s tragic life while Yun Liu was in tears beside her.
Under Tan Ning’s lead, Yun Liu kowtowed to her adoptive parents and thanked them for raising her, vowing she would always be filial to them. They treated her like their own child, so in return, she would treat them like her biological parents. The fans and reporters were moved to tears.
Then Yun Liu kowtowed to her biological parents. Her biological father, Gu An, had rushed over to attend the ceremony. He businesslikely welcomed his newly found daughter into the family. He was quite neutral towards this newly recovered daughter of his; he didn’t lack children or daughters, but he still had to put on a show of parental love before the public.
Zheng Xiu and her daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly, perfectly portraying the sad scene of a loving mother reunited with her long-lost daughter.
Zheng Xiu gifted Yun Liu a set of precious jewelry and told her, “We always prepared and gave every daughter in our family a set of jewelry during their coming-of-age ceremony. You are our daughter, so anything your sisters have, you will also have. The Yuns raised you, so you can’t forget your debt of gratitude. It would be cruel to take you from them; therefore, you are a daughter of our Gu family as well as a daughter of the Yun family.”
That was a recognition of Yun Liu’s identity. Even if she didn’t change her surname, her status was now more noble than before. Her fans were all very happy for her!
Gu Wei walked over with a folder and handed it to Yun Liu. “You’ll always be our daughter, dear child. Your brother first founded Yun Entertainment for your sake, so now he is officially handing the company over to you. This is a
gift from your brother and us.. Take it!”
