On the other side of the city.
Lu Shi and Jiang Chanming are also busy scheming for Jiang Yue’s party.
“Are you sure that this will work?” Lu Shi asked hesitantly.
“Yes. Jiang Yue loves all her mother’s possessions. I’m sure she will wear this necklace if I tell her that it’s her mother’s.” Jiang Chanming explained.
“Just make sure to inform Jiang Mian to act according to the plan. Just act pitiful and shed some tears. I’m sure the crowd will believe her.” He added..
Lu Shi nodded. Then she gives Jiang Chanming a very charming smile.
“Are you adamant on ruining the reputation of your first born? She is still your daughter after all.” She said. A sudden flash of satisfaction can be seen in her eyes.
“What daughter? She does not even respect me at all. Hmph. If we completely ruin her reputation, then the Fu Family will stay away from her. ” Jiang Chanming sneered. He had long loathed Jiang Yue’s existence. He honestly felt like Jiang Yue stole everything from him.
“Then let’s go all out. I will invite some media to sneakily enter the Wang’s estate as waiters.” Lu Shi grinned as the thought of Jiang Yue’s fall is making her want to jump in ecstasy. “Let’s see if she can still act tough and arrogant the next time she sees us.”
…
To Jiang Yue’s surprise, her father asked to see her hours before the start of her party. Jiang Chanming then gives her a gift. And just like in her previous life, it was a diamond necklace.
She didn’t think that this scene would still happen in this lifetime. After all, Jiang Chanming already disowned her.
Then, suddenly her father asked for her forgiveness for his sudden outburst and his abrupt decision to disown her.
To be honest, Jiang Yue did not care about the disownment. But since her father asked for her forgiveness, she directly gives it to him. Of course, this forgiveness does not mean that everything is alright between them.
This forgiveness is just a sign that she really does not mind it at all. For Jiang Yue whatever Jiang Chanming do is irrelevant for her growth.
However, just like her previous life, Jiang Chanming asked her to wear the necklace. He then informed her that this necklace is her mother’s and it will be very good to wear this on her 18th birthday.
Feeling suffocated by the same scene, Jiang Yue agreed.
Of course, she will not wear this necklace. She already knows what will happen at the party. This time she will avoid what happened in her previous life and enjoy this birthday party.
…
The party will officially start at seven in the evening.
Some of the invited visitors started arriving as early as 5 pm. Her grandfather invited not just the elite families of the country. He also made sure to send an invitation to Jiang Yue’s school mate. This includes the Headmistress, Yu Chen, Teacher Shen, and some other teachers. Even Jiang Mian and Lu Qian came.
Of course, Jiang Yue did not fail to invite Shen Rong and even Bai’Li. At this moment, Bai’Li is already considered as part of the Wang Group. This made the underground group stop targeting his back.
At around six thirty, Jiang Yue is already done with her hair and makeup. She is all prep up and ready for the party.
She looked at herself in the mirror for the tenth time. She couldn’t help but admire the person in the mirror.
“Wow!”
Jiang Yue turned around as she heard someone gasp in admiration. It was her cousin, Wang Minghua. She then gives him a smile and examined him from head to toe.
This guy is truly her cousin. No one can deny that they look somewhat alike. Wang Minghua is wearing a grey suit with navy printed waistcoat, a white shirt, and black double monk shoes. This made him appear more mature than his true age.
She can’t deny that her cousin is truly a beauty among the handsome men out there.
However, she also can’t deny that Fu Jin still looked a little better compared to her cousin.
“I didn’t know Little Yue can be this pretty ah. Somehow I feel lucky to escort this beauty tonight.” Wang Minghua teased her.
Jiang Yue beamed from her cousin’s compliments.
“Hey, can you help me put this necklace on?” She said then she handed the black box that contains Fu Jin’s gift.
Wang Minghua immediately complied. Still, he couldn’t help but let out a few praises for the exquisite necklace. Somehow, Wang Minghua was not that surprised to know that it is Fu Jin’s gift.
He can see that Fu Jin truly likes her younger cousin. However, he does not want to influence Jiang Yue’s decision, so he doesn’t want to say anything that will influence her.
For, Wang Minghua, Jiang Yue’s partner is someone that only she can decide. No one in the Wang Family will force her into something that she does not like. As long as she is happy then, Wang Minghua will truly support her.
“Wow! This necklace suits you well.” Wang Minghua praised Jiang Yue again. “Too bad Fu Jin is still not here to see you.” Everyone in the Wang Family was already aware that Fu Jin will be late tonight.
Jiang Yue did not say anything. She knows that Fu Jin will come no matter what. Or more like she is expecting him to come no matter what.
Maybe this is her being selfish. But she honestly would like him to see her wearing this necklace.
“Let’s go, the party is about to start.”
Both Wang Minghua and Jiang Yue then went to the VIP elevator of the hotel. This will directly lead them to the venue.
To maintain privacy, both Wang Minghua and Jiang Yue walked into a secret hallway that will lead them at the back of the stage. This is all part of the presentation.
Her grandfather will introduce her together with Wang Minghua. Then they will walk down from the stage that was set up to look like the interior of a palace.
This is an outdoor party, and everything from the lighting to the table arrangement is perfectly arranged to look like they are located outside of an ancient palace.
The party screams elegance and sophistication.
Grand and beautiful.
This made all the mature people admire the Wang Family’s wealth, and the younger generation jealous. After all, not everyone can have a birthday party as grand as this.
At exactly seven her grandfather called everyone’s attention.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, we are all here to celebrate the 18th birthday of my beloved granddaughter. Aside from this, I would also like to announce that from today onwards, my grandson Wang Minghua and granddaughter Jiang Yue will be the only successors of the Wang Group.” Wang Guiren made a deliberate pause to observe everyone’s reaction from his sudden announcement. “Everyone, I want you to help me welcome my only granddaughter, Jiang Yue escorted by my only grandson, Wang Minghua.”
