During the winter vacation of their sophomore year, Xu Zifan and Ji Yaru went home for the Chinese New Year, and met Yan Yuxin and Li Xudong at the airport who were looking very bad.
Yan Yuxin stopped and looked at Xu Zifan with complicated eyes. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Xu Zifan holding Ji Yaru's hand and walking away. He just walked past her as if he didn't know her. She was unwilling to take a step forward, and Li Xudong next to her grabbed her and said, "Yuxin, what are you doing? We have business affairs when we come back this time, so don't make troubles."
Yan Yuxin's face sank, and he threw off his hand and strode out. Li Xudong showed displeasure, and quickly covered it up, pushing his luggage and chasing after him. As soon as they went outside, they saw Ji's father and Ji's mother hugging Xu Zifan warmly. Ji's mother took Ji Yaru and sat in the back seat with a happy smile on her face and kept talking with Ji Yaru. Xu Zifan put his luggage on the co-pilot, Ji's father quickly drove the car away. It was a Mercedes-Benz. This year's new model, Yan Yuxin heard from a friend a few days ago that it cost more than 2.6 million!
Although this car is several grades worse than the car in the Yan family's garage, it is incredible that the Ji family can afford it. Could it be that the Ji family has made so much money in the past two years? Cars have changed from hundreds of thousands to more than two million? how is this possible? If the Ji family's husband and wife have this level, why are they willing to be ordinary in the past ten years? Why... let her live the life of an ordinary person? !
Yan Yuxin's facial features are a little distorted, and what is even more uncomfortable is the attitude of the Ji family's husband and wife towards Ji Yaru.
The Li family sent a car to pick up Li Xudong, Li Xudong asked her to get in the car, and comforted: "Go home and have a look, and if you can't do it, you won't go abroad. After all, that little one is just a baby, please please your parents and take them Just pull your heart back.”
Yan Yuxin clutched her purse tightly and got into the car with a frown. The Yan family had been preparing for pregnancy for a long time before they conceived, and then they carefully protected the pregnancy without telling the public. It was not until they gave birth to a son a while ago that the circle knew that the Yan family had added a young son. The Li family quickly notified Li Xudong, and Yan Yuxin heard this from Li Xudong. information. In two days, Young Master Yan's full moon banquet will be held. I heard that it will be more grand than Ji Yaru's 18-year-old coming-of-age ceremony that year. Yan Yuxin booked a plane ticket to return to China in disbelief, full of fear for the future.
She stared out of the car in a daze, if the parents had a satisfied son who had been raised since childhood, would they still care about her daughter? She suddenly remembered what Yan's father told her before she went abroad. He said that she should study hard, then go to the company to learn how to manage the company, and later told her not to regret it. So that was the last chance that Yan's father gave her? She gave up, so Yan's father and Yan's mother also gave up on her and gave birth to a son directly. She thought that everything in the Yan family would belong to her, but now, she may not be able to compare to Ji Yaru, anyway, the entire Ji family belongs to Ji Yaru.
Yan Yuxin didn't know what she was going to do when she came back. In fact, she couldn't do anything. Yan's father and Yan's mother didn't care about her at all, and when she saw that she was not happy at the birth of her brother, but rather rejected, she was even more dissatisfied with her. Even if there are brothers fighting over family property in other people's families, they are still brothers and sisters respectfully in front of their parents. As a result, Yan Yuxin can't pretend to love a baby, and they have no patience to care about her anymore.
The full moon banquet arrived as scheduled. The Ji family is a new businessman and has a relationship with Ji Yaru. Of course, it is on the invited list. And Xu’s father is now the mayor of another city. He came back to visit the provincial party secretary for two days during the Chinese New Year. The Yan family couldn’t invite the provincial party secretary, so he naturally invited him, the celebrity in front of the provincial party secretary. So both of them attended the banquet.
They don't have any opinion on the behavior of the Yan family's second child. They don't understand the Yan family's parents' disappointment in Yan Yuxin, and even if they have a third or fourth child, Yan Yuxin is also a child of the Yan family, but she may not manage the company. They don't have any thoughts of fighting for family property, and naturally they can't feel Yan Yuxin's anger and grievance. No matter what, Yan Yuxin's life is much better now than in the past, and they sincerely congratulated them when they participated.
Xu Zifan and Ji Yaru followed behind their parents, arm in arm. Ji Yaru stepped into Yan's house again after two years. She knew most of the guests here, and this time she attended the same banquet together, and her identity was different.
Xu Zifan asked in a low voice, "Will you be uncomfortable?"
Ji Yaru shook her head, "I'm fine now, my parents are fine, and Mr. Yan and Mrs. Yan are also fine. There's nothing uncomfortable."
Xu Zifan smiled, and he knew that she didn't care about other people's eyes. In fact, most of the people of the same age as them are the second-generation rich and the second-generation officials, and they are not stupid. Now Ji Yaru's parents have entered the business world, and their prospects are obviously good. Her boyfriend Xu Zifan has become the mayor's son again, and has a close relationship with the provincial party secretary. Who's going to mess with them? Making a good friend may be a help in the future, and everyone is smiling.
At the beginning of the banquet, Yan’s father and Yan’s mother thanked everyone for coming, and then asked the nanny to take out their little son, who had just turned one month, to show everyone. After that, he introduced Yan Yuxin, who was at the side, and said lightly, “When the child was born, Wrong, this is our recognized daughter Yan Yuxin. She loves to play, and has been studying abroad in recent years. If you meet people outside, I would like to take care of you, thank you. "
Anyone can hear that the Yan family's husband and wife are polite, because they have no intention of bringing Yan Yuxin to know the guests. Now that the Yan family has given birth to a son again, this youngest son must be the heir, otherwise why would he be born at this time! And this also reassured many partners. It turns out that Yan Yuxin is not the heir, and the Yan family will not have no successor, so many thoughts can be taken away, and everyone is still good friends.
The banquet started, and Li Xudong invited Yan Yuxin to dance immediately. The business of the Li family has been going downhill for the past two years, and he does not want to give up Yan Yuxin for the time being. At the same time, Xu Zifan also took Ji Yaru's hand into the dance floor.
Two pairs of handsome men and beautiful women dancing on the dance floor are very eye-catching, but the contrast is also very strong. Yan Yuxin's smile is too stiff, and she has not learned all manners of etiquette thoroughly. Now that she is so close to Ji Yaru, she has a feeling of being embarrassed. And Li Xudong is not a good match either. Regardless of character or family background, many people have been excluded from the scope of mate selection. The daughter of the Yan family is still with him, but she is really blind.
Xu Zifan and Ji Yaru are just the opposite of them. Both of them have natural smiles on their faces, and their gestures are full of tacit understanding. At first glance, they know that their relationship is very good. Besides, both themselves and their families are developing rapidly. The potential is unlimited, and this is the person they are optimistic about.
In such a comparison, the two girls who exchanged are still better than Ji Yaru.
Yan Yuxin heard a whisper or two inadvertently, and immediately exploded with anger, but just before she went downstairs, Yan's mother warned her that if she dared to destroy her brother's full moon banquet, she would not want to return to China in the future. No matter how angry she was, she didn't dare to lose her temper. She could only find an excuse to leave the banquet hall after dancing the first dance and stay in the corner of the balcony.
Xu Zifan and Ji Yaru didn't pay attention to her. When Ji Yaru returned to the familiar Yan family, she remembered the tree she planted in the garden when she was a child, and wanted to take Xu Zifan to see it. She told the housekeeper, and the housekeeper immediately asked someone to take them to the garden, and put champagne and fruit on the small table for them.
Yan Yuxin was furious when she saw this scene. How could the Yan family's housekeeper smile and respect Ji Yaru when she saw Ji Yaru, and act like a robot when she was facing her? Could it be that she can't compare to Ji Yaru in her life? Did Ji Yaru take away all her luck when she was born? Otherwise, why is everything going wrong for her? ! Yan Yuxin felt unhappy and followed quietly.
Ji Yaru stood in front of a big tree, stretched out her hand and touched it with nostalgia, and sighed, "I was five years old that year, and my parents' business expanded, so we moved here. That was the first time I had been with my parents. I am very happy to celebrate their birthdays together. I planted this tree with them. I hope that I can grow like this tree in the future. When I grow up, I will protect them from the wind and rain, so that they will not be so tired and have more time. Accompany me. But they have been busy since then, and they have long forgotten about this tree. I am the only one who waters it every day. I hope it will grow up quickly. Fortunately, there are gardeners to help me, otherwise I am afraid that the tree will die. I was poured to death."
Xu Zifan looked up and said with a smile, "Now that this tree has grown up, it can keep out the wind and rain."
Ji Yaru looked at the big tree with complicated eyes and shook her head, "Unfortunately, I have no position to do anything for them now, and I don't think they need it either. What they need is an heir with their bloodline, and I hope the baby can grow up soon. Well, then they can really relax and rest."
"Hmph, that sounds nice, Ji Yaru, are you very proud now?" Yan Yuxin walked out from the corner and stared at Ji Yaru, her face full of hatred, "You have been in the Yan family for 18 years, and they have never thought about rebirth, just afraid Shake your status. What about me? It was only two years after I went home, and they gave birth to a son. Today is such a big scene that I didn't even introduce who the guests were. They were telling everyone that they didn't want to see me. Ji Yaru, this You are the one who harmed me! If you hadn't occupied my position for 18 years, I was their proudest daughter, how could I have been rejected by them?"
Ji Yaru turned to face her, frowned, "you have time to complain about these useless things, you might as well work harder to make Mr. Yan and Mrs. Yan satisfied with you. Don't forget, you also occupy my place. Eight years."
"How is that the same! What does the Ji family compare to the Yan family? You must be laughing at me in your heart, right? Standing and talking doesn't hurt my back! I don't work hard? I received elite education every day for half a year when I first came back. Life was like hell. Isn't it hard enough? You don't know this at all, what do you know!"
"I understand. Because, when I moved to this villa when I was five years old, I began to receive elite education." Ji Yaru looked at her sharply out of control appearance, her eyes were always calm, "everything I got was because of my hard work. , and everything you lose is just because you don't know how to cherish."
