Wen Yin always addressed Grandpa Shao as an elder in front of him.
It was the first time she stood in front of him with Shao Yinan, so she felt a bit embarrassed.
"Grandpa, stop teasing us. A Yin is very shy," Shao Yinan said, seeing Wen Yin's shyness and couldn't help coming to her rescue.
Grandpa Shao had known Wen Yin for quite a while and naturally knew what kind of person she was. So he asked with a beaming smile, "You two have been together for so long. How's the wedding preparation going?"
Hearing this, Wen Yin looked up at Shao Qi beside her.
Shao Qi noticed her furtive glance and let out a cold snort from his nose.
Shao Yinan held her hand, and his eyes were filled with a hint of doting as he looked at Wen Yin. "We're already preparing for it. Grandpa, don't worry."
Grandpa Shao saw Shao Qi with a cold face and couldn't help glaring at him.
Not long ago, he had heard that Shao Qi had been trying to matchmake Shao Yinan with the girl from the Qi family.
But now, the Qi family had taken Wen Yin, the real daughter, back home, and Qi Siran's identity as the fake daughter had been confirmed.
Grandpa Shao never really liked Qi Siran. With his sharp eyes, he could tell at a glance that this girl was far from being as innocent as she appeared.
It was probably just a guise to deceive others.
In his opinion, Shao Qi's opinion didn't matter.
Grandpa Shao naturally knew that Shao Qi had been against Wen Yin before and even deliberately made things difficult for her at work because of this.
But after tonight, Wen Yin's status would be different.
She was no longer the unknown real daughter of the Wen family but the biological daughter of Mrs. Qi.
You know, there were only two top - tier wealthy families.
That was their Shao family and the Qi family.
In his eyes, Shao Qi had no right to object.
"Remember to tell Grandpa if you've set the wedding date," Grandpa Shao said.
With Grandpa Shao around, Shao Qi naturally didn't dare to contradict him.
Wen Yin nodded obediently. "Don't worry, Grandpa. We will."
Wen Yin saw that Shao Qi didn't say anything and sensed that he might not want to interfere in their relationship anymore, so she didn't say much either.
Grandpa Shao was very satisfied with his future daughter - in - law.
She was not only capable at work but also knew how to manage the household.
After seeing Grandpa, Wen Yin saw him chatting with others from afar.
"Xiang Wei," Wen Yin greeted her, arm in arm with Shao Yinan.
Li Xiang Wei was clearly surprised to see Wen Yin tonight.
"My god, you're so beautiful tonight! This dress must be priceless, right?"
"Your glamorous appearance tonight has shocked many people in the circle."
Wen Yin sent Shao Yinan away and then pulled Li Xiang Wei aside.
"You knew Grandpa Shao's identity all along, didn't you?" Wen Yin said through gritted teeth. After all, she had been kept in the dark for months.
Li Xiang Wei knew Wen Yin was settling scores when she brought this up.
She tried to laugh it off but was stared back by Wen Yin's sharp gaze.
Li Xiang Wei's face almost wrinkled into a bitter melon. She said helplessly, "It's really not that I'm being unkind. It was Grandpa's request."
"Didn't he explain it to you? He didn't want to put too much pressure on you, so he didn't tell you."
Wen Yin couldn't help but poke Li Xiang Wei. "You could at least give me a hint! I was almost scared to death when I saw Grandpa Shao tonight!"
Although Wen Yin had suspected something.
She never expected that Grandpa Shao was actually Shao Yinan's grandfather!
Li Xiang Wei couldn't help shrugging. "You're wronging me. Don't you remember? I gave you a hint a long time ago."
After Li Xiang Wei's hints, Wen Yin remembered the hint she had given that day.
But at that time, she was focused on treating Grandpa's anorexia and didn't pay much attention to her words, so she completely ignored it.
Wen Yin smiled helplessly. After all, this wasn't a big deal.
"You said I was keeping secrets from you. Didn't you keep the fact that you're the real daughter of the Qi family from me?"
Li Xiang Wei began to accuse Wen Yin of being unkind. "If the Qi family hadn't invited me to this banquet today, you would have kept it from me forever, right?"
Wen Yin felt a headache just thinking about this. "I only found out not long ago."
"And Shao Yinan told me before that Qi Siran was also investigating this matter, so I couldn't expose myself easily."
Li Xiang Wei couldn't help widening her eyes. "Your relationship is really complicated!"
"Your former rival has now become the most beloved real daughter in the family, crushing herself. Qi Siran must be so angry!"
Mentioning Qi Siran, Wen Yin asked curiously, "I haven't seen much of Qi Siran since the banquet started. Have you seen her?"
Li Xiang Wei also shook her head.
She wasn't very close to Qi Siran, and they didn't talk much. "I've never really paid attention to Qi Siran."
As they were talking, Wen Yin caught a familiar yet strange figure out of the corner of her eye.
"Wen Yin," Shao Yuanjia stopped in front of Wen Yin. He was wearing an expensive suit tonight, looking quite dashing.
"Can I talk to you?"
Li Xiang Wei's eyes fell on Shao Yuanjia and then turned to Wen Yin, looking at her in confusion.
Her eyes silently asked what the connection was between Wen Yin and Shao Yuanjia.
After Wen Yin gave her a reassuring look, she followed Shao Yuanjia to the balcony.
"What do you want to talk about?"
Shao Yuanjia looked at the cold - eyed woman in front of him, and a bit of bitterness welled up in his heart.
"I just heard that you're going to set the wedding date with Shao Yinan," Shao Yuanjia said. When he mentioned this, he felt a surge of unwillingness and jealousy.
"Why can't you even take a second look at me?"
Wen Yin placed the wine glass in her hand on the table beside her. She crossed her arms and looked at Shao Yuanjia coldly.
"Shao Yuanjia, there's no relationship between us. Why should I take a second look at you?"
"If you're grateful to me because of what happened when we were kids, I have nothing to say."
"But now we're strangers, even competitors in the business world. There won't be any other relationship between us."
Wen Yin knew exactly how to use words like knives to pierce Shao Yuanjia's heart. She looked at him coldly.
As if looking at an unrelated stranger.
"What's so good about Shao Yinan?"
"I can give you everything he can."
"Can't you just give me a little place in your heart?" Shao Yuanjia's tone was almost humble.
"No."
