The mind-reading fake heiress changes her fate by eating melons.
Chapter 30 2 Family Meeting
After exchanging pleasantries, Shu Jiaohe was finally able to focus her attention entirely on An Ling.
Despite having mentally prepared herself for so long, when she actually saw An Ling, she still found it difficult to suppress her emotions. Afraid of putting pressure on An Ling, Shu Jiaohe tried her best to keep her voice calm, but her slightly nervous smile still betrayed her.
“Anling, hello, I…”
Shu Jiaohe's voice choked up, and she quickly turned her back. Qiu's father, who was sitting next to her, quickly picked up a tissue to wipe away her tears, but a tear could be clearly seen in Qiu's father's own eyes.
In this situation, it was difficult for the others at the table to speak up.
“Just call me Xiaoling,” Anling said, breaking the silence.
“Qiu…” Anling hesitated for a moment, “Aunt Shu, Uncle Qiu, may I call you uncle and aunt first? Is that alright?”
An Ling's parents are both here, so it's hard for her to call them "Dad" and "Mom" directly.
Because An Ling took the initiative to speak, Qiu's mother's face showed a happy expression, and she quickly nodded in response, "Hey, Xiao Ling, of course you can."
An Ling smiled and nodded at Qiu's mother, looking very obedient, which made the Qiu family like her even more.
An Ling's appearance does resemble Qiu's father and mother somewhat. She has excellent bone structure, inherited Qiu's father's phoenix eyes, and her nose, like Qiu's mother's, has a slight hump.
So when Qiu Nian first showed the paternity test report to the Qiu family, their first reaction was disbelief, wondering if Qiu Nian had been deceived by someone. But when Qiu Nian showed them An Ling's photo, their doubts gradually dissipated.
The Qiu family members exude an air of refined and easygoing intellectuals, especially Qiu's father and mother, whose demeanor is gentle and whose temperament is outstanding. Qiu Li may have a sharper temperament due to her profession, but Qiu Nian gives people the feeling of being very similar to Qiu's father and mother.
The people in the An family seem to have a much more outgoing demeanor. An's father and An Chong are the two generations of heads of the An family, and their aura is naturally stronger than that of ordinary people. An's mother and An Ling are the same. Their acting careers have always been smooth sailing. Even under the spotlight, they can always maintain a relaxed attitude. In their daily lives, they are the kind of people who can attract attention without doing anything.
Therefore, An Ling and Qiu Nian, one with a cold appearance but a strong aura, and the other with a bright appearance but a reserved temperament, demonstrate that the influence of genes and upbringing on a person cannot be ignored.
The main purpose of this meeting between the two families was to discuss how Anling and Qiu Nian should get along with both families in the future. No matter how much small talk and preparation there was beforehand, the topic would eventually come to this.
Qiu Nian had already revealed her thoughts during her last meeting with An's mother, and her attitude remained unchanged this time.
"I still want to continue living in the Qiu family."
All eyes then turned to An Ling, and almost everyone's eyes were filled with expectation, putting An Ling under a lot of pressure.
“I…I also want to continue living in Anjia.”
Before the An family could even breathe a sigh of relief, An Ling's voice came again.
[Since Qiu Nian has so firmly chosen the Qiu family, it would definitely hurt my parents' feelings if I suggested moving out now.]
An family: ?
The Qiu family: ? ? ? !!!
Because everyone present had been focused on An Ling, the Qiu family naturally noticed that they had heard her voice even though she hadn't spoken, and were quite surprised.
Seeing the expressions on the Qiu family's faces, Qiu Nian knew that they could indeed hear An Ling's thoughts.
She had anticipated this possibility and sent the pre-edited message to the Qiu family members present.
Qiu Nian: I know you may think you are hallucinating, but what you are seeing and hearing now is real. It's just that we can't let An Ling know for certain reasons. Not only you, but the An family members can also hear An Ling's thoughts. I will explain the specific situation to you when we get home, but for now, just pretend that nothing happened.
The Qiu family's phones received message notifications at the same time, but no one paid attention to them. Qiu Nian could only remind them, "Mom and Dad, your phones seem to have received messages. Please check if it's anything important."
At the same time, Qiu Nian kept giving them meaningful glances, signaling them to check the message first.
After the Qiu family finished reading, they realized that what had just happened was not an illusion. It seemed that Qiu Nian already knew something, and according to Qiu Nian's intention, everyone present could hear it now.
Does that mean the An family also knew that An Ling wanted to move out?
The Qiu family then turned their attention to the An family, and sure enough, they saw a hint of disappointment on all three of their faces.
An Chong suddenly cleared his throat and asked An Ling, "You said you want to continue living in the An family?"
An Ling didn't know why her older brother suddenly asked this, but since she had already said it, she could only answer yes.
An Chong, dressed in a suit and tie, actually held up his little finger and offered it to An Ling, saying seriously, "Then you and I will pinky swear."
"Huh?" An Lingren was a little dumbfounded. "Wh-what?"
“You and I make a pinky promise that you’ll still live in the An family,” An Chong said, his tone serious. He emphasized, “You’re not allowed to move out.”
"No, there's no need," An Ling stammered.
【Ugh! How old am I?! Don't bring your childhood tricks here!】
Even if you want to pinky swear back later, can't you? There are so many people watching!
“No way,” An’s parents even joined in the fun, raising their little fingers at An Ling and saying, “An Chong is right. Since you said you would continue living in the An family, then pinky swear with us. Otherwise, what if you go back on your word?”
Looking at the three little fingers stretched out in front of her, An Ling's lips twitched. The scene was both comical and strange.
But why do they act like they won't let go until she makes a pinky promise? It's like if Anling doesn't make the pinky promise, they'll make her sign a written agreement on the spot.
An Ling was so embarrassed she wanted to crawl under the table, but she had no choice but to bite the bullet and stick out her little finger to make a pinky promise with them.
Mother An even recited a vow: "Pinky promise, a hundred years of vows, never to be broken..."
[Aaaaaah, Mom, stop reading! Can't you see the Qiu family is trying not to laugh?!]
【Qiu Nian! I saw you with your phone! Don't take pictures!】
Qiu Nian suppressed a laugh and put away her phone. To be honest, this was the first time she had felt so relaxed and happy since learning about the real and fake heiresses. Judging from the way the An family members got along and An Ling's personality, the An family must be a very lovely family. She probably wouldn't have to worry about not being able to fit in anymore.
The rest of the Qiu family felt the same way; they smiled with satisfaction at An Ling's expression, which made her look as if she wanted to dig a hole and disappear.
They had always worried that family relationships in wealthy families were weak and that there would be a lot of infighting among siblings. But now it seems that An Ling grew up in love, and the An family members and An Ling herself seem to be very kind people. Qiu Nian should not be bullied in the future.
In any case, being able to get along well with the two children is the biggest wish of both families right now.
