Tang Xia carefully observed the nanny's movements and, seeing that she was indeed meticulous and skilled, felt at ease entrusting Niannian to her.

We returned to the room we had just been in.

Unexpectedly, I ran into someone I knew.

"Sister Tang Xia!"

As soon as Song Zhiruo saw her, she jumped up from her chair and ran to her side, shaking her arm and saying in a coquettish tone, "Sister Tang Xia, you're so unfair! You didn't tell me about such a big thing first. I almost became the last person to know about it."

"I've been wanting to tell you this for a while, but I just haven't found the right time."

"Alright, alright, I forgive you." Song Zhiruo pulled her to sit down and then chatted familiarly with the elders around her: "Grandma, you all don't know, I used to be colleagues with Sister Tang Xia for a while. The first time I met her, I felt that she was a very approachable person, and I even thought that it would be great if we were sisters. I didn't expect it to actually be true! Does this mean that my words have come true?"

Song Zhiruo is the youngest child in the Song family.

She was naturally lively from a young age, and her elders doted on her.

Hearing her say that, everyone praised her for her good taste.

Suddenly someone said, "Zhiruo, since you have such sharp eyes, why didn't you bring him back in the first place? It would have saved your uncle and aunt from searching for so long."

Song Zhiruo pouted and said, "Then I didn't know at first that Sister Ziling wasn't their biological daughter."

This was originally a joke, and Song Zhiruo answered casually.

But once you think about it more closely, something just doesn't feel right.

The expressions on Song Hongsheng and his wife's faces grew increasingly grim.

It was Grandma Song who stepped in and smoothed things over.

"Alright, we've had our chat, and the guests are almost here. You all need to hurry down and greet them. Today is my 70th birthday, so you all need to be happy, understand?"

"heard it."

After everyone had left one by one, Old Mrs. Song left Tang Xia behind alone.

"What's wrong, Grandma?"

Grandma Song took out an exquisite wooden box from the cabinet.

It was handed to her.

Tang Xia opened it and found it to be a jade bracelet of excellent quality.

She quickly handed the items over, saying, "Grandma, this is too valuable, I can't accept it."

"Why can't I accept it?" Old Mrs. Song took out the bracelet and put it on Xia's wrist. "Our Xia has fair skin and a slender frame, so this bracelet is perfect for her. Don't refuse, everyone in the family has one. I'm not just giving you one. Consider it a token of my appreciation, okay?"

Seeing this, Tang Xia really couldn't refuse.

"Thank you, Grandma. Well then, I'll accept it."

"That's good."

The old lady appeared before everyone, holding Tang Xia's hand.

Most of the guests who came to offer their congratulations had already heard rumors and knew Tang Xia's identity.

Many people were surprised, feeling that Tang Xia looked somewhat familiar.

Someone in the crowd whispered, "Isn't that Jin family's girlfriend? I didn't expect her to be the Song family's daughter. Not only did she find a rich and powerful boyfriend, but her biological parents are also prominent figures in S City. Her luck is just too good."

"Indeed. But then again, on such an important occasion today, why haven't we seen that young master from the Jin family?"

"That's definitely because they don't want to steal the limelight from their father-in-law's family."

"That makes sense."

In the corner, Jin Yao pinched Wen Qi's arm.

He just said that in a high-pitched voice.

Wen Qi chuckled: "What? I was just helping your brother out of a tight spot, and instead of thanking me, you pinched me. You have no conscience."

"Hehe, if you really had any conscience, you should have told my sister-in-law where my brother is now."

As soon as the topic came up, Wen Qi immediately fell silent.

During this period, Jin Yao has been relentlessly pursuing Wen Qi, using every means at her disposal.

Surprisingly, this person was quite stubborn.

I didn't get anything useful out of the question.

This infuriated Jin Yao.

On the other side, the old lady introduced Tang Xia to everyone.

Tang Xia's extraordinary appearance and demeanor, as well as her excellent education and eloquence, made her feel proud.

He liked Tang Xia even more.

Of course, she would inevitably be compared to another young lady from the Song family.

"This fake heiress can't compare to the real heiress. The Song family's generation has all done well in their studies and work, except for Song Ziling. She had to rely on her family to donate a building to go to university. She graduated so long ago and still doesn't have a decent job. She just hangs around outside all day."

“Aside from intelligence, I think even the fake heiress can't compare to the real heiress in terms of appearance.”

"In the first half of her life, she was arrogant and domineering outside because of the Song family. Now that the real daughter has returned, she probably won't be allowed to run wild anymore. Just wait and see, the Song family is going to have a good show to watch in the future."

At this moment, Song Ziling, who was not far behind them, had her palms scratched raw by her own fingernails.

The words "fake heiress" have always been like a curse, filling her with fear and anger.

She watched Tang Xia move effortlessly among the guests, her eyes practically spitting fire.

No.

She couldn't let that little bitch be so smug.

As soon as Song Ziling turned around, she saw the person sitting in the wheelchair.

I was suddenly startled.

She couldn't help but complain, "Brother! Why didn't you say anything? You scared me to death!"

Song Xingzhou glanced at her coldly: "If you have nothing to hide, you won't be afraid."

"Me? What nonsense are you talking about? I don't understand."

Song Ziling and Song Xingzhou had a pretty good relationship when they were young.

But ever since Song Xingzhou fell ill, he has been gloomy all day long and his temper has become very strange. Gradually, Song Ziling also stopped wanting to talk to him.

Seeing that Song Xingzhou wasn't flattering Tang Xia like the others, Song Ziling assumed he was on her side.

"Brother, are you also not used to a stranger suddenly appearing in the house? Do you still feel that I, who have been with you for more than 20 years, am more like your own sister?" Song Ziling walked to Song Xingzhou's side, pushed his wheelchair inside, and said in a low voice, "Why don't you help me, help me kick her out?"

Song Xingzhou pressed his hands firmly against the wheelchair.

Song Ziling was hit on the knee by the sudden resistance, and immediately winced in pain.

"Song Xingzhou! What are you doing?"

Song Xingzhou turned around, his dark eyes fixed on her.

The stare made Song Ziling's back tingle.

She couldn't help but rub her arms and said with a pout, "Alright, alright, if you don't want to help me, then forget it. I know that blood relatives are closer after all, but you don't need to look at me like that, making me seem like a bad person."

"You're not bad?" Song Xingzhou sneered, but then he turned to look at Tang Xia in the crowd and said expressionlessly, "I'll pretend I didn't hear what you just said."
