433 Face Smacking!
The banquet would begin soon.
Shen Yuansong had sent invitations to several big shots in the scientific research field, officially
introducing Shen Ruojing’s identity.
Moreover, the old man had become especially energetic in recent days despite his declining health.
At the thought of his granddaughter being Prof. Z, he felt that his back was no longer sore, and even
his old legs, which had troubled him for many years, were seemingly cured!
Shen Yuansong smiled and looked at all the busy people in the Shen family. He then looked at the
butler and asked, “Has the room for the young miss been tidied up?”
The butler, Uncle Liu, sighed helplessly. “Old Master, even if you tidy it up, the young miss might not
stay!”
Shen Yuansong waved his hand. “She hasn’t even gotten married yet, but she lives in the Chu family
without reason or clarity. What kind of nonsense is this? I think her father is unreliable! He’s not a
reliable son-in-law and doesn’t take good care of his daughter!”
The butler was silent but still couldn’t help but say, “Old Master, is it possible that their family is actually
controlled by the young miss’s mother?”
After all, he was a small-time celebrity that married into the family. How could he have any authority to
speak in their family?
Shen Yuansong was indifferent. “Still, a man should protect his wife and daughter.”
The butler looked at Shen Yuansong and held back for a moment before asking, “Master, are you sure
you won’t send an invitation to Miss Ruojing’s parents?”
Today’s recognition banquet recognized Shen Ruojing as the granddaughter, not Shen Qianhui as the
daughter.
That was why Shen Yuansong didn’t invite them.
Upon hearing the butler’s words, Shen Yuansong fell silent for a moment before saying, “The matter on
the other side hasn’t been settled yet, so let’s not disturb their peaceful life for now.”
If it weren’t for the fact that his term as the president of the scientific research association was about to
expire and the election would take place soon, Shen Yuansong wouldn’t even want to recognize
Roujing temporarily.
Although he knew that all of this was just self-deception, he thought that if he didn’t recognize his
daughter, he could avoid disturbing their peaceful life. So, for now, he wouldn’t acknowledge her.
At this moment, Shen Yuansong abandoned the random thoughts in his mind. “Today is a good day,
let’s not talk about the unhappy things. Oh, has Ruojing come?”
The butler. “….Not yet.”
Shen Yuansong. “?”
He immediately took out his phone and called Shen Ruojing. “Why are you not here yet? You are the
big shot of the banquet tonight!”
Shen Ruojing’s lazy voice rang out. “Why so anxious? Isn’t it just 4 p.m.?”
Shen Yuansong. “!!”
–
Chu Manor.
After Shen Ruojing hung up, she pursed her lips and then put on the custom-made dress that Shen
Yuansong had sent over earlier.
She didn’t put on any makeup, but her natural beauty shone through her fair complexion, which
seemed to emit a glow.
When she arrived downstairs, she saw that Matriarch Bai, the female leader of the Bai family, was here
and she was chatting with Matriarch Chu and Bai Shanshan.
In an effort to win over Bai Shanshan, Matriarch Bai would visit the Chu Manor once every few days.
She would try to win her over with her soft-spoken and sincere words, leaving Bai Shanshan with no
choice but to forgive her.
Today, Matriarch Bai came over to keep an appointment with Bai Shanshan.
The two women were chatting along with the others, and Matriarch Bai told Bai Shanshan, “You’ll sit in
my car later.”
Bai Shanshan sighed and said, “Grandma, you don’t have to do this.”
Matriarch Bai held her hand and said, “Shanshan, you’re still too innocent and naive. You don’t know
what kind of people the wealthy women of the capital are. They’re all outwardly refined but inwardly
flawed, and they like to look down on others. Although everyone knows that you’re my granddaughter,
if I don’t show you enough respect, those women will think that I don’t value you and they’ll bully you!”
Bai Shanshan. “…I want no interactions with them.”
Matriarch Bai laughed and said, “Silly child, I used to say the same thing when I was young. I didn’t like
socializing with people. But when you get older and your children are getting married, or you need to
make business contacts, it’s already too late to start socializing. Of course, you just need to be
yourself. We don’t need to please anyone, nor do we need to be pleased by anyone. If there are people
you like, just make friends with them. If not, just treat it as a meal.”
Matriarch Chu, who was beside her, smiled and said, “Shanshan, what Matriarch Bai means is just to
go have some fun.”
Bai Shanshan sighed helplessly and said, “Okay.”
After that, Matriarch Bai said with a smile, “Your grandfather is still complaining at home, saying that he
just recognized a granddaughter, and Old Master Shen followed suit. He complains that Old Master
Shen is copying him! We don’t know who his granddaughter is, but she’s so lucky!”
Shen Ruojing’s identity was still under wraps, and her family members didn’t know about it.
So when Matriarch Chu heard this, she spoke up and said, “Whoever she is, she’s a lucky one! Many
people will try to curry favor with Miss Shen from the Shen Family.”
Matriarch Bai nodded and then said to Bai Shanshan, “You should go take a look. If that Miss Shen has
a good temper, then make friends with her. If not, there’s no need to force it. Our Bai family is your
backing, and no matter what you do in the future, you have to have confidence!”
Shen Ruojing listened to their conversation and went downstairs. Just as she arrived, Matriarch Chu
stood up and asked, “Where’s Cichen?”
Shen Ruojing turned around in confusion and saw Chu Cichen coming out of the room with a few ties
in his hand. “Jingjing, Mother, can you help me choose which one to wear?”
Matriarch Chu. “?”
Her face darkened. “Today is the recognition banquet for the eldest young miss of the Shen Family.
Why are you dressed so flamboyantly?”
Chu Cichen glanced at Shen Ruojing and smiled. “I’m just trying to see if I can catch the eye of Miss
Shen.”
Hearing this, Matriarch Chu immediately looked at Shen Ruojing and then angrily scolded Chu Cichen,
“Stop talking nonsense!”
She then explained to Shen Ruojing, “Don’t mind him, he’s just talking nonsense.”
However, Shen Ruojing only smirked and looked at Chu Cichen. “The blue tie.”
“Okay.”
Chu Cichen put on the blue tie, and then they all got ready to leave.
Bai Shanshan sat in the Bai family car with Matriarch Bai. On the way, Matriarch Bai couldn’t help but
sigh. “Shanshan, did you see that? Chu Cichen dared to flirt with the eldest young miss of the Shen
Family in front of your sister-in-law, and Shen Ruojing didn’t even complain. She even helped him pick
a tie… This is the tragedy of not having a powerful background!”
Bai Shanshan. “…”
She was also a little angry in her heart. She had always felt that Chu Cichen was not that kind of
person, but why did he act so frivolously today? Wasn’t he afraid of his sister-in-law leaving?
Matriarch Bai suddenly spoke up, “You should keep an appropriate distance from your sister-in-law.”
Bai Shanshan didn’t understand. “Why?”
Matriarch Bai said, “It’s all about status. Do you remember back when those managers of clothing
brands dared to disrespect your sister-in-law? Why? Isn’t it because of her background? Because you
come from a good background, your sister-in-law will always be overshadowed by you. I’m not saying
that your sister-in-law is bad, but this is just how human nature works. Even if there are no conflicts
among sisters-in-law, the differential treatment of servants will eventually make people uncomfortable
and unbalanced in their mindset.”
The wife of the main house’s leader definitely had to have a higher status compared to the wife of the
second house or how would the former be able to convince the others?
Although these were preconceived notions left behind by the older generations, there was still meaning
to them.
Bai Shanshan then thought of the last incident with the dress fitting, and her heart felt heavy.
Her favorite person was her sister-in-law, who was also her savior, but wouldn’t it be better if she wasn’t
from the Bai family?
If that were the case, those people wouldn’t treat her differently.
Her eyes became red and she asked, “Grandma, how can we make sure that my sister-in-law is
respected?”
Matriarch Bai sighed. “No other way, unless she has a more prestigious status than you.”
A status more prestigious than that of a legitimate daughter of the Bai family could only be the
legitimate daughter of the Shen family!
But how was that possible?
As they were speaking, Matriarch Bai’s car and the Chu family’s car arrived at the Shen family’s estate.
As soon as they reached the parking lot, they saw the Shen family’s butler respectfully waiting there.
Matriarch Bai was slightly surprised. Everyone knew that this butler’s status was akin to the ‘matriarch’
of the Shen family, so why was he personally waiting here? Was there a VIP guest coming?
Matriarch Bai understood that the Shen family was even more prestigious than the Bai family, so he
couldn’t be waiting for her.
Just as she was thinking about this, the Chu family’s car also pulled up behind her.
Matriarch Bai then saw the butler of the Shen family smiling and walking toward the car behind her.
“Miss, why did you come so late? Many guests have already arrived, and you, as the host, are still
nowhere to be seen!”
Matriarch Bai. “?”
Shouldn’t the eldest young miss of the Shen Family be in the Shen Manor? Why would she be here?
She then glanced behind her curiously, wanting to take a look at who exactly this mysterious eldest
young miss of the Shen Family was…
