The Regent's Little Wife
Chapter 733 Xiao Guoqiang recognizes Gu Nian as his goddaughter
When Gu Shanhai saw the woman, his eyes almost popped out of his head in surprise. He then shouted angrily, "What are you doing here? Stop making trouble and get out of here!"
The woman ignored Gu Shanhai's angry rebuke and walked straight to President Xiao like a blooming flower.
"Boss Xiao, long time no see!"
When Xiao Guoqiang looked up and saw the woman, he felt like he had found a life-saving straw and quickly stood up. His wife and two sons beside him also stood up like shadows.
"My savior, why did you come out just now? If you hadn't saved me before, I would not be able to stand in front of you now. This time, I specially brought my wife and two sons to attend your birthday party, and presented you with three supreme gifts." As he said this, he waved his hand gently, and his men took out the gifts like magic.
"Niannian... these three gifts are rare treasures that I won at an auction in a foreign country three months ago. I am presenting them as a small gift today. I hope you don't mind their modesty." Xiao Guoqiang spoke softly, as gentle as a spring breeze.
"This gift is so precious, thank you so much, uncle!"
At this time, Gu Shanhai hurriedly changed the subject: "Boss Xiao, Nian Nian is also my daughter. She said she was ill just now, but I didn't expect her to be here now. This is my daughter, named Gu Yao." Gu Shanhai introduced his adopted daughter Gu Yao three times, hoping that Gu Yao's name would be deeply engraved in Xiao Guoqiang's mind. After all, Xiao Guoqiang had invested a huge amount of money and cooperated with him in the past because of Gu Yao's face.
Xiao Guoqiang frowned slightly, like a rolling black cloud: "Gu Shanhai, I came to visit you today. The person I am talking about is your daughter Gu Nian. What is Gu Yao? Why do you repeatedly introduce your adopted daughter to me? If I remember correctly, Gu Nian is your biological daughter, and Gu Yao is just an adopted daughter. Could it be that the world has changed now, and the adopted daughter wants to be superior to the biological daughter?"
Previously, Gu Nian had saved Xiao Guoqiang's life, so he sent a private detective to investigate the Gu family, and only then did he know what the Gu family had done. Moreover, the daughter Gu Yao they claimed to the public was not their biological daughter, but an adopted daughter when they were young. As for their own biological daughter, it was heard that she was treated very poorly.
After all, as an outsider, it is not convenient for me to interfere in other people's family affairs. However, at the birthday banquet today, Gu Shanhai unscrupulously introduced his adopted daughter and did not mention his biological daughter. Sure enough, he was biased as the legend said. And Gu Yao's every move just now, what is the difference between that and a bar girl? She is still a daughter of a noble family, and it is still regrettable in the socialite circle. So Xiao Guoqiang blurted it out directly in front of so many guests.
As for Gu Nian, her family had always been very secretive about her identity, and had never mentioned in public that Gu Nian was their daughter. However, when Xiao Guoqiang said this, it was like a bombshell, and all the guests were stunned.
"What? Mr. Xiao, what did you just say? The girl in the red dress is the real daughter of the Gu family, but the protagonist of today's banquet is not the daughter of the Gu family. This is really a jaw-dropping melon!"
Gu Shanhai originally wanted to use this birthday party to raise the Gu family's profile. After all, the Gu family's status has been precarious in recent years. If no action is taken, they will sooner or later be eliminated by the upper class.
Now, if the Gu family can get close to the Xiao family, then the Gu family will surely rise to a higher level. He arrogantly believed that all this was because of Gu Yao's relationship with Xiao Yan, the second son of the Xiao family, and that the Xiao family would lend a helping hand to the Gu family.
However, the current situation has nothing to do with Gu Yao, but is inextricably linked to his daughter, whom he regards as an ungrateful person.
Gu Shanhai is indeed an old fox in the business world. He quickly came to his senses, with a flattering smile on his face. He held Gu Nian's hand tightly and said, "Niannian, so you are the great benefactor that Mr. Xiao mentioned. I am so ashamed that I, as a father, have failed so badly and I only realized it now."
"Mr. Xiao, I'm really sorry. Nian Nian was abandoned when she was young and wandered around. She just returned home not long ago, so we haven't announced to the public that she is my daughter. In fact, today I want to use this birthday party to officially announce to the outside world that Gu Nian is me, the biological daughter of the Gu family."
Gu Nian thought to himself, this Gu Shanhai is really a smooth talker. It is obvious that he does not want to recognize himself, but he can still speak so righteously in public.
However, if I were to say that I have fallen out with your Gu family now, it is not the right time yet. Let your Gu family be proud for a while, let your Gu family reach the top, and then kick your Gu family down, then it can be regarded as revenge. Even if I say it in front of these guests now, it is meaningless and will only embarrass the Gu family.
Gu Nian pretended to be surprised, her face full of astonishment, her eyes filled with tears, as pitiful as a pear blossom in the rain, "Dad, Mom, I can finally become a member of the Gu family!"
Gu Shanhai hurried forward and hugged Gu Nian tightly, "Niannian, my dear daughter!"
Gu Yao, who was standing by, gnashed her teeth in anger, secretly resenting that she should have been the heroine, but Gu Nian had snatched her away and taken the lead. However, in front of so many guests, she could only force a smile, as hypocritical as if she was wearing a mask.
Xiao Guoqiang narrowed his eyes and stared at all this thoughtfully. He knew the deep meaning of it. If it wasn't his home court today, the Gu family probably wouldn't have the idea of recognizing this daughter. After all, this carefully arranged banquet was originally set up to celebrate the birthday of the adopted daughter of the Gu family. However, these have nothing to do with him. He came here today just to repay the life-saving grace in the past. The right and wrong of the Gu family has nothing to do with him.
Xiao Guoqiang asked Gu Nian to sit next to him without hesitation.
"Niannian, if you are unhappy living in the Gu family, you can come to live in my Xiao family with just one phone call. From now on, you are the daughter of my Xiao family. You are not only my savior, but also the apple of my eye." After saying this, Xiao Guoqiang walked straight to the center of the stage.
Holding the microphone, he said loudly to the guests in the audience: "Dear guests, thank you for coming today! Nian Nian is the daughter of the Gu family, the real daughter of the Gu family. And from today on, she is also my, Xiao Guoqiang's beloved daughter. I remember that in more than a month, my daughter will have the college entrance examination. Here, I sincerely wish my daughter good luck in the college entrance examination."
"And everyone here is a dignitary in City A. On the day my daughter's college entrance examination results come out, I would like to invite everyone here to attend my daughter's entrance banquet."
The people in the audience were all well-known and powerful people in City A, but even among these people there were different levels. Those who were invited by the Xiao family to attend the banquet were undoubtedly extremely lucky.
After all, the Xiao family is a well-known family in City A, and this banquet has attracted much attention because of Xiao Guoqiang's newly adopted daughter.
It can be seen that Xiao Guoqiang attaches great importance to his newly recognized daughter. What is even more unexpected is that this admission banquet would be held in City B. Its scale and grandeur are enough to demonstrate the strength and status of the Xiao family.
