He didn’t directly say that Luo Yuntian didn’t want to see him. Instead, he used him not being there as an excuse. Unexpectedly, Luo Yuntian sneered and said, “I’ve been there all day, but I don’t want to see you.”

An Zhiyao’s face stiffened. The smile on his face couldn’t be maintained anymore.

Luo Yuntian shouted loudly, “Brat, you were rejected by me during the day and shamelessly came to my banquet at night. How come I don’t remember inviting you? Where did you steal your invitation card from?”

When the people around him heard this, An Zhiyao wished he could disappear on the spot. The gazes of the people around him made him feel uncomfortable all over.

He didn’t know what to do. At this time, a scream suddenly came from the other side where the ladies were gathered. It attracted everyone’s attention, and only then did he heave a sigh of relief.

He also looked in that direction. His eyes widened the moment he looked over. He hurriedly walked over. The person who had just screamed was his wife, Ruan Li. Ruan Li was sitting on the ground and her dress was drenched in red wine. She was in an extremely sorry state.

A beautiful woman stood beside Ruan Li. She frowned and said disdainfully, “The dignified Mrs. An actually stole my bracelet.”

The confused crowd looked at Ruan Li, who was on the ground. She was holding a jade bracelet in her hand. The jade bracelet was crystal clear, and it was obviously very valuable.

Ruan Li didn’t know why things had become like this. She just wanted to get close to Mrs. Luo, and she had no idea what had happened. She shook her head and said, “I didn’t. I didn’t steal the bracelet.”

An Zhiyao paused for a moment, then he hurriedly said, “There must be some misunderstanding.”

Mrs. Luo glanced at them, and said, “Who doesn’t know that the An family is short of money right now? You guys have been trying to borrow money from people all over Feng City, but no one has lent you guys any money. It shows how bad your connections are.” She then shouted at Luo Yunyang, “Hubby, you mustn’t lend them any money. What if they go back on their word?”

Luo Yuntian instantly seemed much more humbled in front of his petite wife despite his burly size.

An Zhiyao’s face was ashen. Not only had the An family become disgraced in such a short period of time, but they also had the reputation of going back on their word.

He regretted coming here today.

“What’s going on?” A pleasant female voice sounded. Everyone turned around and saw a girl wearing a white evening gown slowly walking over.

The moment this girl appeared, everything in the entire banquet paled in comparison to her. The smile on her face made everyone smile, except for the An family’s couple.

An Lengyan glanced at the embarrassed An family’s couple and closed her eyes to suppress the hatred in her eyes. When she opened her eyes again, she had already regained her composure.

Madam Luo pulled her over with heartache and glared at the An family’s couple before saying, “My dear daughter, you’ve finally remembered me. It wasn’t easy for you to come back to Feng City, but you didn’t even come and see me at the first moment. You’re really heartless.”

An Lengyan’s eyes flashed with sincere mirth as she hugged her. Five years ago, when she had just escaped to Feng City, it was Madam Luo who had helped her and even acknowledged her as her goddaughter.

Luo Yunyang wanted to say something, but he didn’t dare to. He really missed his daughter too.

An Lengyan smiled and gave him a hug as well. This big man instantly broke into a wide smile.

Daughter?

No one had heard that the Luo family had a child. Everyone knew that Madam Luo couldn’t bear children at all. This matter was also a laughing stock in Feng City.

Madam Luo held An Lengyan’s hand in a high-profile manner and introduced, “This is my goddaughter. You have to show her respect in the future. Otherwise, I won’t let you off.”

An Lengyan felt a sense of warmth in her heart. She knew that she was helping her.

Everyone responded while sizing up An Lengyan. Even the An family’s couple looked over. Ruan Li’s gaze was a little strange. Why did this girl look so much like her mother? She was practically the spitting image of her mother when she was young.

Her mother was a beauty, but she didn’t inherit any of her beauty. This was also what she hated the most. She clearly had a beautiful mother, but she was plain and unremarkable. This caused her to hate her own mother.

An Lengyan ignored everyone’s gazes and gave the Luo family’s couple a look. She turned to look at the An family’s couple with tears in her eyes. She asked with trembling hands, “Are… are you An Zhiyao and Ruan Li?”

The An family’s couple nodded in confusion.

She continued, “I’m An Lengyan. I’m your daughter.”

The An family’s couple was shocked. Ruan Li shook her head vigorously, and her eyes were filled with disbelief. How could her daughter be so dazzling? She had gone to the countryside to visit her when she was young, and she was extremely ugly. That was why she had given up on her. However, she believed her words because of her resemblance to her mother..
