Being tortured by her whole family, she no longer pretends to be a real daughter!

Lin Yusheng looked at Xu Zimo and smiled. "Why did the guard let me in? You can go ask the guard."

Xu Zimo frowned, "I'm sick? Why do you ask specifically?"

Zheng Yingying whispered in Xu Zimo's ear, "Didn't Lin Yusheng get letters of recommendation from the seven major clans to enter the Noble Academy? Maybe she can actually get an invitation."

Xu Zimo thought about it and realized that it was indeed true.

The fact that Lin Yusheng was able to enter the aristocratic academy showed that she had some relationship with one of the seven major clans, so it seemed reasonable that she could get the invitation letter through this relationship.

Xu Zimo snorted coldly, looking down at Lin Yusheng and saying, "Even if you went to great lengths to attend the Jiang family's banquet, what's the use? It's a pity that you're already half dead!"

The more Xu Zimo looked at Lin Yusheng, the more she disliked him. She was too lazy to say anything to her. She sneered nonchalantly and left.

She came here to get to know Miss Jiang, so she had no time to pay attention to Lin Yusheng.

Xu Zimo continued to search for Miss Jiang in the banquet hall. She didn't know what Miss Jiang looked like and whether she had come.

Lin Yusheng narrowed his eyes and watched Xu Zimo's figure disappear, then turned his gaze to the long table beside him which was filled with snacks.

She picked up a small piece of cake and stuffed it into her mouth.

The housekeeper came over hurriedly and whispered in her ear: "Miss, please come here, Miss Cixi is looking for you."

Lin Yusheng said nothing and followed the housekeeper.

-

The attendees of this public banquet were mainly from the forty-three tribes.

Ye Yuanwei arrived at the door of the banquet hall with the Ye family elders. He took a look at the busy scene of people coming in and out, narrowed his eyes, and strode in.

Ye Yuanwei has only been the head of the family for a short time, so he still attaches great importance to maintaining the relationship between the nobles. If he wants to gain a foothold among the nobles, he still has to be thoughtful in all aspects.

This Jiang family public banquet can be said to be the first banquet related to the seven major clans that he has attended since he came to power.

What's more, it concerns Miss Jiang.

Therefore, Ye Yuanwei was very well prepared. He spent more than 700 million yuan to find a top jade carver to create a phoenix ornament as tall as an adult, named "Feng Xiang".

It not only fits the Jiang family's totem symbol but is also not cheap. It is a perfect gift for Miss Jiang.

When Ye Yuanwei led his people in, everyone noticed that the two bodyguards following behind him were working together to carry a large object covered with red cloth, so many people's eyes fell on Ye Yuanwei.

But they soon guessed that the thing covered by the red cloth was probably the gift prepared by Ye Yuanwei, because Ye Yuanwei was not the only one who had the same idea, the others had also prepared gifts.

The waiter in the banquet hall saw Ye Yuanwei and stepped forward, "Is what Patriarch Ye brought a gift for the eldest lady?"

"Yes."

"Then please place the gift in the corner over there and mark the identity of the gift giver on the gift list." The waiter had obviously dealt with many people who gave gifts and was very skilled in handling this matter.

Upon hearing this, Ye Yuanwei frowned slightly.

He glanced at the place where the gifts were placed. There were piles of gifts of all kinds, but he was sure that none of them was as valuable as his.

Who could be so willing to spend 700 million to carefully create such a gift!

If this "Feng Xiang" is mixed up with those vulgar gifts, Miss Jiang may not pay attention to it in the end, and naturally she will not know his intentions.

He didn't spend so much money in vain.

Ye Yuanwei looked at the waiter and said, "Can I personally deliver this gift to Miss Jiang?"

The waiter shook his head and said, "Master Ye, this is against the rules. There are too many people giving gifts today. If everyone presents their gifts to the young lady personally, she might be too busy today."

The waiter naturally knew that giving gifts was secondary. The main thing was that everyone wanted to meet the young lady and become familiar with her.

But Miss Jiang is not someone that anyone can meet.

Ye Yuanwei didn't change his expression when he heard this, but said confidently: "My friend, this gift of mine is extraordinary and too valuable, so I must give it to Miss Jiang personally!"

As he spoke, Ye Yuanwei signaled with his eyes to the person next to him to slightly lift a corner of the red cloth to reveal the "Feng Xiang" ornament inside!

The waiter looked over and his pupils shrank slightly. He was a little shocked. "Master Ye, you..."

The waiter was a man with a discerning eye and naturally saw the value of this jade ornament!

He had seen all kinds of gifts, big and small, some of which were valuable, but this jade pendant clearly went beyond the scope of "gift giving".

"How is it? Can I meet Miss Jiang now?" Ye Yuanwei asked confidently.

"Master Ye, please wait a moment. I will go and ask the eldest lady for instructions."

After the waiter said this, he left in a hurry.

-

On the second floor of the banquet hall, in the lounge.

Lin Yusheng followed the housekeeper in.

Jiang Cixi and Ye Li are both here.

"Ye Li? Why are you here? Shouldn't you be resting in the hospital?" Lin Yusheng looked at her in surprise.

Jiang Cixi said, "Ye Li heard in the hospital that today was your identity banquet, so she asked Jiang Guang to release her from the hospital. She said she wanted to come and congratulate you."

The hospital belongs to the Jiang family, so the doctors and nurses like to discuss all the big and small matters of the Jiang family in private. If Ye Li hadn't overheard it by accident, he wouldn't have known that Lin Yusheng was the eldest daughter of the Jiang family.

But she wasn't surprised.

Ye Li had lost his cell phone long ago. When he came out of the hospital, he was stopped by the guard at the door of the banquet hall and happened to meet Jiang Cixi.

Jiang Cixi brought Ye Li in just like that.

Later, Ye Li talked with Jiang Cixi and found out that Lin Yusheng had grown up in China.

"Lin Yusheng, congratulations, from now on you will be Jiang Yusheng."

Lin Yusheng smiled and said, "What makes me happiest is that I can find my mother."

As for her last name, it doesn't matter.

"How do you feel?" Lin Yusheng asked.

In fact, the reason why Ye Li couldn't wait to find Lin Yusheng was that he had something to tell her.

"My body is now able to use ancient martial arts, and Doctor Jiang Guang told me that my abilities haven't been wasted over the past decade or so."

Jiang Cixi raised an eyebrow at the side. "Speaking of which, this is very strange. Logically, Ye Li hasn't used her internal energy in the past ten years, but her strength after recovery is quite surprising."

"Accident? How to say?"

"I just tested it and she can handle 50% of my strength."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yusheng widened his eyes slightly.

The gap between ancient martial artists cannot be known unless they fight. Jiang Cixi had tried her before, starting with 10% of her strength. In the end, Lin Yusheng could only barely withstand 40% of Jiang Cixi's strength. Even so, Jiang Cixi praised her for being excellent. She said that people of the same age as her could not even withstand 10% of her strength.

And Ye Li could actually absorb 50% of Jiang Cixi's strength.

That's quite exaggerated indeed.

"This is probably due to your father." Jiang Cixi looked at Ye Li and said, "Your father, Ye Jingtian, is extremely powerful and is the youngest genius among the thirty-six clans."

If I remember correctly, Ye Jingtian had already secured the position of the head of the Ye family when he was in his early twenties, because Ye Jingtian was the most talented and strongest younger generation in the family.

Perhaps it was God's envy of talented people, but unfortunately Ye Jingtian died of illness in his early thirties.

"I just asked Xuan Ji about this." Jiang Cixi turned her gaze to Lin Yusheng again. "He said that Ye Li's sealed acupoints don't affect her cultivation, but they will hinder the release of her internal energy. God rewards hard work. Although Ye Li hasn't been able to practice ancient martial arts for the past ten years, she's practiced every day, which is why she's had such a turnaround today. Otherwise, anyone else would have given up out of despair long ago."

"Anyway, this is a good thing." Lin Yusheng said sincerely.

Just then, a waiter knocked on the door and came in.

"Miss Cixi, Miss." The waiter looked at the two people in the room and whispered, "The head of the Ye family, Ye Yuanwei, has arrived. He has brought a priceless jade pendant named 'Fengxiang' and said he wants to personally deliver it to Miss. Because the gift is so valuable, I've come to ask Miss's opinion."

"Fengxiang?" Lin Yusheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

"It's a jade ornament worth about 700 million yuan, and it's as tall as a person."

"Then he is really willing to do so." Lin Yusheng smiled.

She turned to look at Jiang Cixi, intending to ask her opinion, but to her surprise, Jiang Cixi said, "Ali, since Ye Yuanwei is here to give you a gift, it's up to you to decide whether to meet him or not. It's up to you to decide whether to accept the gift or not."

Lin Yusheng curled his lips, "Why wouldn't I accept the money that's delivered to my door?"

"But the most important thing is that I want to see what expression Ye Yuanwei will have when he sees me."

Lin Yusheng turned to look at the waiter, "Let him come up to me."

-

Ye Yuanwei was waiting downstairs, and soon he saw the waiter who had just left come back.

"Master Ye, our eldest daughter has agreed. You can go straight up. She is in the innermost room on the second floor."

Ye Yuanwei's brows immediately lit up with joy.

He knows it!

These 700 million will not be wasted, and will definitely allow me to meet Miss Jiang.

He was so excited that he even rubbed his hands and said to the people behind him: "Let's go up!"

Ye Yuanwei was about to go upstairs with his men when he saw Jiang Qingyang.

Jiang Qingyang obviously saw him as well. He glanced at Ye Yuanwei's posture and knew what he was here for without having to guess.

Jiang Qingyang stroked his beard and said with a smile, "I'm afraid Patriarch Ye's gift must be quite expensive, right?"

"No, no, no, no gift is unworthy of Miss Jiang's status." Ye Yuanwei said politely, "I just sent it as a token of my appreciation."

"By the way, after these few days of calm, does Patriarch Ye still intend to destroy Lin Yusheng?" Jiang Qingyang asked, "Is there no room for maneuver in this matter?"

Ye Yuanwei's face changed slightly when he heard this. He thought Jiang Qingyang was going to plead for Lin Yusheng.

"Senior Qingyang, my son is now half dead. As a father, the only thing I can do is to avenge him."

"Since she is a student of the Noble Academy, I can spare Lin Yusheng's life, but I must repay her for what she did to my son."

Hearing this, Jiang Qingyang touched his chin and nodded, "That's a pity."

Ye Yuanwei thought that when Jiang Qingyang said "it's a pity", he meant that he felt pity for Lin Yusheng.

"Senior Qingyang, I'll go give Miss Jiang a gift first." Ye Yuanwei said.

Jiang Qingyang didn't say anything else. Looking at Ye Yuanwei's figure going up, he shook his head and turned away.
