After being reborn as a passerby, the fake daughter only wants to play badly

At this moment, there was a whisper coming from the door.

"Who is this distinguished guest?"

"He looks very unfamiliar. I'm afraid he's not from our social circle."

"I haven't seen him either. Could he be some mysterious figure?"

"That's impossible. A big shot would come to a family recognition banquet?"

Out of curiosity, Shen Anran also turned around and saw that the person coming was Zhou Jingyan.

He was wearing a neat black suit with his tie tied meticulously, like a king in the night, exuding an aura that no one could approach.

Shen Yifeng was the first to react. He strode towards Zhou Jingyan and greeted him with a smile: "I didn't expect Mr. Zhou to come. It's really shocking."

Although Shen Yifeng seemed gentle, he had actually cursed Zhou Jingyan hundreds of times in his heart.

If the situation had not allowed it, he would have kicked the person out long ago.

Zhou Jingyan nodded slightly and extended his hand, "Hello, Mr. Shen."

The two people's hands touched lightly in the air, almost without actually holding each other. This detail did not attract the attention of others.

Everyone looked at this man with extraordinary temperament.

A courageous middle-aged man on the side couldn't hold back and walked up to ask:

"Mr. Shen, I'm sorry to bother you. Who is this distinguished guest? I don't think I've seen him before. Could you please introduce him to us?"

This person is the boss of Wu Group and is quite famous in the catering industry.

"Mr. Zhou, why don't you introduce yourself to everyone." Shen Yifeng did not directly reveal Zhou Jingyan's identity, but cleverly threw the topic to him.

Zhou Jingyan glanced at the crowd present and said calmly, "I'm Zhou Jingyan."

Mr. Wu couldn't help but frowned when he heard this. The surname Zhou was common among ordinary people, but it was not prominent among wealthy families.

He tried hard to search his memory, and it seemed that there was indeed a prominent Zhou family in S City many years ago, but then it suddenly disappeared.

There were rumors that the Zhou family went bankrupt and fell into poverty, and there were even more exaggerated claims that the Zhou family was wiped out.

But these are just unconfirmed rumors and no one knows the real situation.

Some of the older guests present seemed to recall something and began to whisper to each other.

"I remember that family had a son back then. Could it be the one in front of us?" a guest speculated curiously.

"I heard that the current president of the Zhou Group was originally an assistant to the Zhou family. After the Zhou family disappeared, he took over the power of the group. Perhaps out of respect for his former master, he did not change his surname." Another guest joined the discussion.

"It's hard to say. The version I heard was that this person might be related to the disappearance of the Zhou family. He feels guilty, so he dare not change his name." A gossipy voice interrupted.

"The Shen family and the Zhou family used to have a close relationship, but when the Zhou family got into trouble, the Shen family didn't do anything. It was just superficial courtesy." Another guest commented with a hint of sarcasm.

For a time, Zhou Jingyan became the focus of everyone's discussion.

Zhou Jingyan stood there, his expression still calm, as if he didn't care about the discussions behind his back.

Shen Anran strode over and took Zhou Jingyan's arm, "Brother Jingyan, why don't you come to see me?"

This action undoubtedly caused a small sensation, and everyone's attention was instantly focused on them.

"I guess this is the fake daughter. I heard that she and the child from the Zhou family grew up together and they are even engaged." A guest whispered to the person next to him.

A woman dressed in luxury goods looked at Shen Anran with contempt, a hint of disdain on her lips.

"The Zhou family today is no longer the wealthy and aristocratic family it once was. They are quite compatible."

This woman was once Lin Miao's friend. She was straightforward and hated fraud.

When she learned of Lin Miao's true identity, she broke off all ties with her without any hesitation.

Her sarcasm towards Shen Anran at this time was not out of justice for Lin Miao, but because she hated Shen Anran from the bottom of her heart.

Because her parents always praised Shen Anran for her intelligence and often compared her with Shen Anran.

When she learned about Shen Anran's life experience, she was so excited that she couldn't sleep the whole night, and her heart was filled with the pleasure of revenge.

She wanted to tell the whole world that Shen Anran was a fake daughter and make her lose face.

Some even suspected that her parents might be beggars with evil intentions, which was why they did such a dirty thing as exchanging identities.

She came to the banquet today just to find an opportunity to mock and humiliate her and vent her anger.

Although her comment was not loud, most of the guests present had keen hearing and were filled with mixed emotions.

Shen Yifeng's face suddenly darkened, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

He could not care about what others said about Zhou Jingyan, but he could not bear to hear his sister being talked about like that.

He glanced coldly at the guests present. "Shen Anran is my sister. No matter what happens, she will always be a member of the Shen family. I don't like to hear people talking about her behind her back. We in the Shen family don't welcome such people."

Then, he looked at the security guards beside him and ordered, "Please ask this lady to leave. We do not welcome rude people at our Shen family banquet."

The woman's emotions instantly became agitated, and her sharp voice echoed in the hall.

"What did I say wrong? Shen Anran is just a fake daughter. She might even be born to a beggar. Her blood is dirty."

The woman's father hurried over, his face full of anger.

He raised his hand and slapped his daughter hard with such a loud voice that all the guests present were stunned.

"Asshole, what are you talking about? I asked you to study hard, and this is the kind of dirty talk you learned?" the man scolded.

The woman was stunned by the slap. She covered her cheek with her hands, tears welling up in her eyes, but she no longer dared to make any sound.

The mother wanted to say something, but she could only hug her daughter and cry.

The man turned to Shen Yifeng, bowed deeply, and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, my daughter is ignorant and her words offended Miss Shen. I apologize to you on her behalf. We will educate her well."

Shen Yifeng's expression did not ease. He said coldly, "Even when you apologize, you should be clear about who you are apologizing to."

"Yes, yes, yes." The man nodded repeatedly and then looked at Shen Anran.

"Ms. Shen, I'm sorry. I apologize to you on behalf of my daughter."

Shen Anran did not speak. Fu Ying snorted coldly, "The one who should apologize should be the one who did something wrong."

"What this lady said makes sense." Then she pulled her daughter's arm and pulled her in front of Shen Anran.

"Hurry up and apologize to Miss Shen."

The woman's face was filled with anger. "I'm not apologizing. I didn't say anything wrong. Why should I apologize?"
