I can support you.
Chapter 370 Confirmation of Recognition
Ye Fengning and Lan Qingyue stared at the screen and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. Long Junyi's ears warmed slightly at the praise, and he smiled helplessly at the camera.
Xue Pianpian noticed Long Junyi's shyness and discomfort, and hung up the phone after chatting for a few words.
After a hearty meal, they chatted in the living room for a while. It was almost two o'clock, and Ye Fengning had to go back to work at the company, and Lan Qingyue also had to rush back to prepare for the evening banquet, so the two of them got up to say goodbye.
After seeing them off, the villa became quiet.
Xue Pianpian and Ning Youran went back to their rooms for a nap. The two days of running around made them both a little tired, and they slept particularly deeply.
When I woke up again, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
The two of them simply washed and dressed, changed into appropriate clothes, and set off from the villa on time at five o'clock. The car drove steadily towards the Shen residence.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom slid smoothly into the gate of the Shen residence, and its tires rolled over the smooth marble road, leaving a slight sound.
Xue Pianpian pushed open the car door and got out first, then turned around and naturally helped Ning Youran up - the latter was wearing a champagne-colored silk suspender skirt today, the hem of the skirt was decorated with tiny pearls, and she seemed to be flowing and graceful as she walked.
As soon as the two stepped onto the carved porch, the glass door of the Shen residence's living room was pulled open. Mrs. Shen, Chu Yilin, stepped out quickly in exquisite high heels, with an undisguised warmth on her face:
"Pianpian, Youran, I've been waiting for you to come!"
As soon as she finished speaking, several eyes in the living room instantly focused on her, first falling on Xue Pianpian, and then turning to Ning Youran. The air seemed to freeze for half a second.
Ning Youran nodded slightly in greeting, her long eyelashes trembling like butterfly wings. The sunlight filtered through the crystal chandelier in the corridor, casting tiny spots of light on her fair cheeks.
Everyone in the Shen family subconsciously fell silent. They were used to seeing the exquisiteness of Kyoto noble ladies, but they had never seen such a cold and gentle appearance. Even the temperament around her was like a beautiful jade that had been carefully polished, warm and dazzling.
"My goodness, this look is absolutely amazing!"
Chu Yilin held Xue Pianpian's hand, but her eyes were glued to Ning Youran, her tone full of admiration.
"Before, I kept telling Old Shen that Pianpian was beautiful, sensible, and caring, and that we had to announce her adoption as our goddaughter as soon as possible. Now, there's another baby! Youran, will you be my daughter too? I really love you both so much."
The more she talked, the happier she became. She simply took the hands of one of them on each side and led them to the living room.
"No matter what, we have to finalize the recognition of our relatives today. Don't let me worry about it anymore."
Xue Pianpian's fingertips touched the warmth of Chu Yilin's palm, and her heart felt warm.
During this period of contact, she fully felt Mrs. Shen's gentleness and kindness, and she was also a face control like her, which made her feel very interesting.
So she smiled at Madam Shen and said in a cheerful tone:
"Aunt Chu, I like yours too. It's my blessing to be your daughter."
Ning Youran glanced sideways at Xue Pianpian, then smiled faintly at Chu Yilin:
"Me too, Aunt Chu. It's really a blessing for us to be remembered by you."
Her voice was soft and clear, like a feather gently brushing across the tip of Chu Yilin's heart, making her so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
"Good good!"
Shen Haotian had just come out of the study. Upon hearing this, he immediately came over with a smile. He was wearing a custom-made suit and looked calm and composed, but at this moment, his eyes were filled with an unconcealable smile.
"Everything in my life is perfect, except for two caring daughters. Now I have them all at once. It's such a great joy!"
He immediately made the decision.
"The recognition ceremony will be held the day after tomorrow. The venue and guests will be of the highest standard. Everyone from Kyoto's upper class will be invited. Let everyone come and see my daughter, Shen Haotian!"
As soon as the recognition of relatives was finalized, Chu Yilin immediately asked the servants to invite a stylist.
The Shen family’s exclusive stylist is a well-known “Midnight Gown” in the circle and has created stunning looks for countless celebrities.
She brought two large boxes full of accessories and haute couture clothing. She first chose a haze blue fishtail dress for Ning Youran, which accentuated her slender waist and gave her a cool and sophisticated aura. She also picked a burgundy velvet maxi dress for Xue Pianpian, which accentuated her curves and paired it with matching gemstone earrings, making her beauty even more striking. She meticulously polished her hair and makeup for nearly two hours. When the two of them stood in front of the mirror, even the stylist couldn't help but exclaim:
"Mrs. Shen, I'm afraid your two goddaughters will become the new benchmark in the Kyoto circle."
At 6:30 in the evening, Shen Mobai's black Maybach stopped at the door of the Shen residence on time. He was dressed in a dark gray suit and stood tall and straight. When he saw Ning Youran coming out, he immediately took a half step forward and naturally took her handbag:
"Can we go now, sis?"
Ning Youran nodded and responded in a gentle tone:
"Okay, let's go."
On the other side, Shen Haoteng, wearing a casual suit, walked over to Xue Pianpian in a casual manner and handed her a piece of strawberry mousse cake:
"Sister, I am your flower protector tonight."
The four siblings went to the Chu family in two cars.
As one of the four major families in Kyoto, the Chu family's mansion is located halfway up the mountain, with a deep courtyard and bright lights.
Tonight's banquet was hosted by Chu Tiancheng, the eldest son of the Chu family, to welcome his sister Chu Luofu who had returned from studying abroad. The guests invited were all well-known young people in the circle. It was called a welcoming banquet, but in fact it was also a social gathering for the new generation in Kyoto.
When the car arrived at the Chu residence, the dashboard displayed 7:20. There were only ten minutes left before the banquet officially began.
Shen Mobai got out of the car first and helped Ning Youran down in a gentlemanly manner. Shen Haoteng protected Xue Pianpian, and the four of them walked side by side onto the red carpeted steps.
As soon as the carved door of the banquet hall was pushed open, the originally noisy music and conversations instantly became a little weaker.
Everyone's eyes were cast over at once - Ning Youran's haze blue long dress shone with a soft luster under the light, her temperament was cool yet gentle; Xue Pianpian's burgundy velvet dress was bright and eye-catching, and every move was full of charm; Shen Mobai was calm and introverted, Shen Haoteng was bold and handsome, the four of them standing together, like a carefully composed picture, instantly grabbing the attention of the entire audience.
"Aren't those the two young masters of the Shen family? Who are the girls beside them?"
Some people were whispering, their eyes wandering between Ning Youran and Xue Pianpian.
"They're so beautiful... Especially the one in the blue dress. How come I've never seen her before?"
"The one in the red skirt is Xue Pianpian, Madam Shen's recently adopted goddaughter. She is also the attending physician of Mr. Shen Haoteng. I heard that Mr. Shen's heart disease is almost cured. Her medical skills are really great! I don't remember the one in the blue skirt."
There were discussions one after another, but no one dared to disturb them.
The four of them walked straight through the crowd and headed towards the center of the banquet hall. Every step they took seemed to be the focus of everyone's attention, making them the most eye-catching presence at tonight's banquet.
The crystal chandelier in the center of the banquet hall reflected thousands of light points, which fell just around the four people, making their figures even more eye-catching.
Shen Mobai walked on the far left, naturally supporting Ning Youran with his left hand. His eyes swept across the entire audience with the aloofness unique to a young master from a noble family, but when he turned to the person beside him, his eyes unconsciously softened a little.
Shen Haoteng half-turned his body to protect Xue Pianpian, his fingertips still stained with the cream he had touched when he took the cake just now. From time to time, he turned his head to tell her a joke, which made Xue Pianpian curl her eyes, and the burgundy skirt swayed, startling tiny rays of light.
"Mo Bai, Hao Teng, I finally waited for you."
A clear voice came from behind him, and Chu Tiancheng, the eldest son of the Chu family, walked forward quickly. He was wearing a white suit and looked at the four people with a smile on his face. His eyes lingered briefly on Ning Youran, unable to hide his amazement. His eyes fixed on Xue Pianpian, and he greeted her with a bright smile.
"Hello, Director Xue!"
Then he looked at Ning Youran doubtfully.
"Who is this?"
Shen Mobai smiled slightly, his tone calm:
"Hello cousin, this is my sister Ning Youran."
Chu Tiancheng was stunned.
"Your sister? When did you have such a beautiful sister? How come I didn't know?"
Shen Haoteng's tone was arrogant.
"My mom just recognized him today. Why, cousin, are you jealous?"
Chu Tiancheng fixed his gaze on Ning Youran and Xue Pianpian again, and said meaningfully:
"Yes, I'm very envious. You two are so lucky to have such beautiful sisters like Mrs. Xue and Miss Ning."
Xue Pianpian smiled faintly:
"Mr. Chu, you're too kind. We are so lucky to have brothers like Mo Bai and Xiao Teng."
