Surprise! The little puppy I raised is the heir of a wealthy family

Strings of code flashed across the screen.

In less than ten minutes, the engagement video that the wedding company said had been deleted magically appeared on the screen in front of her.

On Friday night, the banquet hall was extremely luxurious, with melodious music floating in the air, sparkling crystal chandeliers flashing with dazzling light, and the guests dressed in gorgeous clothes, toasting their glasses and laughing constantly.

As the absolute protagonist of this banquet, Su Xiyao specially chose a pink off-shoulder high-end custom dress. Her soft long hair fell naturally on her shoulders, and a big pink bow was tied at the back of her head. The exquisite makeup was created by the celebrity's personal makeup artist. She looked as sweet as a crystal peach.

Zheng Shuying held Su Xiyao's arm and walked among the guests. Every time she met someone, she would introduce Su Xiyao's identity and her struggles and difficulties over the years in detail.

Everyone gathered in a circle, like stars around the moon, praising Su Xiyao endlessly, making her cheeks flush.

"Hey, Shuying, why didn't your adopted daughter come today?"

Someone in the crowd suddenly asked this.

At this moment, everyone noticed that a hint of embarrassment passed across the faces of Zheng Shuying and Su Xiyao.

"My sister might have been delayed by something, so she might be late."

Su Xiyao explained with a smile.

"The older generation in the family all arrived early, but she's still late. After all, adopted children are different. How can they compare to the care and concern of biological children?"

These words really touched Zheng Shuying's heart.

"If Yaoyao hadn't gone missing, I wouldn't have adopted that child. And we've invested so much effort in her over the years. We thought she would make some progress, but we didn't expect..."

She shook her head in disappointment, as if unwilling to talk any more. "Fortunately, Yaoyao is back with us now. I can say that I have no regrets in my life."

"Yaoyao is so pretty, she looks exactly like you when you were young. As for your adopted daughter... I met her once a few years ago. She's nothing compared to Yaoyao in terms of looks or temperament. Not even one-tenth of her is comparable."

"No wonder Shuying never brought her daughter to such occasions before. So this is the reason."

Hearing that everyone was belittling Su Yanqing and praising herself non-stop, Su Xiyao's vanity was greatly satisfied.

"But what are those?"

Someone pointed at the cameras set up around and the strangers wearing masks and showing their work badges, and asked curiously.

"There will be a live broadcast at the end of the evening party, which is related to Yaoyao's big happy event. Everyone will know it later."

Zheng Shuying said mysteriously.

After some socializing, they moved to a relatively quiet corner.

"Mom, my sister is pretty good too. Once she comes, everyone will see how beautiful she is."

Su Xiyao's smile was innocent.

Zheng Shuying, however, felt both fond and helpless. "Girl, how can Su Yanqing compare to you? You're just as pretty as her. You have to know that you're wearing the latest couture dress from brand D today, and the jewelry you're wearing is my masterpiece. Jingxuan hired a famous celebrity stylist to create your look especially for you. Forget Su Yanqing, even if a real female celebrity came here, she wouldn't be able to steal your charm."

"Mom, is this true?"

Su Xiyao lowered her head slightly, looking a little shy.

"No matter how beautiful a woman is, she still needs to look good. She refused to sign a confidentiality agreement, so I blocked all her bank accounts. How could she afford to buy high-end dresses and jewelry?"

As they were talking, there was a sudden commotion ahead.

"Who is this? She's so beautiful, is she a celebrity?"

Someone asked in surprise.

"How come I haven't seen her before? Judging from her temperament, she must be the eldest daughter of some family."

Hearing these exclamatory words, Su Xiyao felt a vague sense of unease in her heart.

She looked towards the source of the sound...

Su Yanqing walked slowly into the entrance of the banquet hall wearing diamond-studded stiletto heels. The dazzling crystal lights made her already smooth skin even more crystal clear. A faint light shone through the wrinkles of her satin skirt. Her steps were light, her figure was graceful, and she was full of charm.

The guests at tonight's banquet were all dressed in gorgeous clothes, with all kinds of colorful clothes competing for beauty. In contrast, Su Yanqing's pure white dress seemed too plain, but when worn on her, it was extremely dazzling, making people unable to look away.

She casually took a glass of champagne from the waiter's tray, and shook the glass gently, reflecting her cat-like seductive eyes. The small black mole next to her nose added a bit of charm. She raised a smile at the corner of her mouth and stopped in front of Su Xiyao, who had a stern look on her face.

"congratulations."

Her voice was low and hoarse, like the tipsiness in the morning light, and everyone who heard it felt intoxicated.

Su Xiyao's nails almost dug into her palms, and the fire of jealousy in her heart burned throughout her limbs.

But under the gaze of everyone, she had to restrain herself and forced a smile, "Thank you, sister."

"Sister?! Is this the adopted daughter of the Su family, Su Yanqing? Isn't she said to be plain-looking?"

The guests were surprised.

"It's so strange. Su Xiyao is so beautiful, but why does she look so ordinary when standing next to Su Yanqing?"

"Just now, when I saw Madam Su's look of disdain, I thought this adopted daughter was not worthy of being on the stage. I didn't expect that she would even make the real daughter pale in comparison."

These contrasting remarks stung Su Xiyao's eardrums like sharp electric currents, and she felt so angry that her teeth itched.

"Sister, you look really charming today," she said with a smile.

Zheng Shuying's expression grew even darker as she sternly said, "Your sister is the star of the night. Why are you dressing up like this and stealing the spotlight?"

"I just dressed up casually, and I didn't expect to overshadow my sister. I'm so embarrassed."

The unapologetic apology coupled with the innocent look made Su Xiyao so angry that she could hardly maintain her composure.

The other guests gathered around. Zheng Shuying exchanged glances with one of them, who then loudly suggested, "I've heard that the Su family's lost daughter, now found, is a famous pianist who even gave solo concerts abroad. Would you like us to enjoy this musical feast as well?"

"Really? Giving a solo concert abroad, Miss Su is truly remarkable."

"Not only that, but it's said that Miss Su was admitted to the Kyoto Conservatory of Music that year. That's the top music school in our country, and Yanqing just barely made it in."

"Miss Su was separated from her family at a young age and had limited resources, yet she was recommended to Beijing Conservatory of Music. She is truly gifted. On the other hand, Miss Yanqing, the Su family poured so much resources and effort into it, and she was only able to barely get in. Her hard work also speaks volumes."

In the art world, talent is undoubtedly the highest praise for a person, while hard work seems a bit sad.
