Chapter 1 Engagement

Yuncheng,

Four luxury cars parked in front of the Chu family's old house.

The four young masters of the Chu family can appear together just because today is the birthday of Chu Minxin, the little princess of the Chu family, and it is also the day of her engagement.

However, inside the old house, the joy was dampened by the arrival of a man in a suit and leather shoes.

The man handed over the gift with a stern look on his face, "Sorry, Miss Chu, the head of the family is not feeling well and cannot attend your birthday party."

As for the engagement banquet, the male protagonists are not here, so there is no need to continue it.

Everyone present knew that he was the assistant to the head of the Shen family, and Shen Liangqi, the head of the Shen family, was the male protagonist who was getting engaged to Chu Minxin today.

Chu Minxin's originally happy expression froze on her face. The engagement party had already begun, but her fiancé couldn't come?

Isn't this a joke that will make the entire Yuncheng people see her?

She was about to step forward to ask the reason, but she saw the assistant looked directly at her second brother Chu Minghui, nodded and said, "Second Young Master, please come with me."

Everyone was whispering and talking among themselves.

"What kind of situation requires the Second Young Master of the Chu family to personally take action..." As we all know, the Second Young Master Chu is the most famous genius doctor in the imperial capital, and ordinary difficult and complicated diseases cannot be brought to him.

"So...is the marriage still engaged today?"

Seeing that everyone did not show any obvious disrespect for Shen Liangqi, Chu Minxin stood at the door, biting her lip and almost drawing blood. Why would something happen to Shen Liangqi at such a critical moment?

"I'm going upstairs to change into a dress." She said hello to her companions and went upstairs.

It doesn't matter, the Shen family and the Chu family have a marriage contract, Shen Liangqi must be hers.

As soon as the Shen family's car left, a woman wearing white Taoist robes walked in.

Xu was a girl with a fairy-like demeanor, which was incompatible with the atmosphere of the banquet. The guests looked at her twice, and then were frightened by the hideous scars on half of her face.

Lin Huiyun also saw her, and her expression suddenly turned ugly.

She hurried forward, took her aside, and asked in a low voice: "What are you doing here? Today is Minxin's birthday. Did you choose to come back today to cause trouble?"

Chu Mingzhi was pulled by her and staggered.

She was a little unaccustomed to other people's contact, but Lin Huiyun was her biological mother. She endured the discomfort and did not brush away her hand, and said softly: "Mom, I am eighteen years old this year, and I came back to fulfill my engagement with Shen Liangqi. .”

Today is also her birthday.

Her voice was not loud, but for some reason, when she said this, the entire banquet hall suddenly became quiet.

Lin Huiyun looked at Chu Mingzhi in shock, her voice was sharp and she no longer had the demeanor of a dignified lady: "What did you say?! Are you crazy! Today is the engagement party between Min Xin and Liang Qi, and that is Min Xin's fiancé. What do you think? Don't even think about it. If you want some money, I'll ask the housekeeper to take 50,000 yuan. The Chu family will be extremely kind to you, so don't come back again."

The guests were no longer in the mood to socialize, and they all listened with their ears pricked up.

Some people covered their mouths and sneered, "50,000?" The flowers used by the Chu family for today's banquet cost more than 200,000.

"I must marry him. I'm just here to inform you that the marriage certificate Grandpa Shen asked my master to write back then is in my hand."

Lin Huiyun's face became even more ugly.

The Shen family is a large family with a century-old heritage and is the top wealthy family in Yuncheng.

If Chu Mingzhi, a wild girl who grew up in a ravine and had a disfigured face, married into the Chu family, wouldn't she be deliberately making people laugh at the Chu family?

"Mingzhi, why don't you give the marriage certificate to Minxin, and I can announce to the outside world that you are the daughter of the Chu family." After a pause, she added, "But I need Minxin's consent."

Chu Mingzhi had a thin smile on her lips. She tilted her head to look at her and said in a calm voice: "But I am your biological daughter, and Chu Minxin is the one who adopted me. Who needs to agree to the blood relationship?"

boom--

All the guests present were shocked.

"It turns out the rumors are true...that Chu Minxin is an adopted daughter."

"Mrs. Chu is really weird. She actually gave up her biological daughter for an adopted daughter? Isn't this adopted daughter her illegitimate daughter?"

"Chu Minxin is a fake daughter. She doesn't show off her power at all. She thinks she is so great!"

"The Chu family is really interesting. They actually let an adopted daughter marry Mr. Shen. Who do you look down upon?"

Someone pulled the speaker and looked in the direction of Chu Mingzhi: "But this real daughter is really ugly."

"That's right, you don't think that anyone with the surname Chu can marry into the Shen family, do you? You don't have to look at your own virtues!"

...

Chu Minxin stood at the top of the stairs, her face pale, and her nails were digging into the handrail, almost breaking.

She heard every word of what Chu Mingzhi said. At this moment, listening to the discussions of the guests around her, she felt that her eyes were going dark for a while.

Such an ugly thing is worthy of coming back to snatch it from her!

She knew that if she didn't go out, the news would be even worse.

Chu Minxin took a deep breath, ran over and hugged Lin Huiyun's arm as if she didn't know anything, and said pitifully, "Mom, what's going on?"

Lin Huiyun patted her arm comfortingly: "Minxin, I just have something to discuss with you. This is Mingzhi who I mentioned to you before. She has a marriage certificate with Liangqi in her hand. If you like Liangqi, Mom will ask for a marriage certificate for you, but Mingzhi needs to be recognized, are you willing?"

No! How could she allow others to take away her things! Whether it is the Miss Chu family or Mrs. Shen family, it can only belong to her!

But on her face, she tightened Lin Huiyun's arm pitifully, "Mom, don't you want me anymore?"

Lin Huiyun suddenly felt distressed, "Oh, my dear, how could my mother not want you? You misunderstood me——"

Chu Minxin did not give Lin Huiyun a chance to explain, and burst into tears.

"Mom, brother Liangqi and I really love each other, but I don't want to leave you either..."

Someone among the guests suddenly chuckled, "Hey, isn't this the legendary thing about wanting and wanting at the same time?"

Chu Minxin's expression twisted for a moment. She walked to Chu Mingzhi, and Chu Chu pitifully held Chu Mingzhi's hand.

Chu Mingzhi frowned slightly and avoided it.

She followed Chu Mingzhi's avoidance movement and suddenly knelt down in front of Chu Mingzhi: "Sister, I have assumed your identity in the Chu family all these years to fulfill my filial piety for you, work hard to live like you, and comfort my parents. With brother, I have been working hard to be you. Only brother Liangqi, I really like him. Please, can you let me be myself for once and pursue the person I like."

Chu Mingtan, the fourth son of the Chu family, stepped forward to help Chu Minxin up: "Minxin, what are you doing? This Chu Mingzhi owes you these years. If you want to kneel down, she will kneel down to you."

Chu Mingzhi looked at the two of them doubtfully and asked: "I don't quite understand what you mean. Miss Chu, have you had a hard time in the past ten years? How have you suffered on my behalf? It's Mr. Chu and Did Mrs. Chu abuse you?"

Chu Min interrupted her anxiously: "Of course not! How could my parents abuse me?"

"Oh, so your four brothers are not good to you?"

Chu Minxin: "Nothing! My brother is also very good to me!"

Chu Mingtan stood beside her and said impatiently: "Chu Mingzhi, what exactly do you want to say?"

Chu Mingzhi frowned and sighed: "I'm just surprised. You said that I owe her, but I still don't understand. For more than ten years, she has replaced me in the Chu family, and she has been pampered and pampered by others.

What exactly do I owe her?"
