Seeing Zhang Yuanyuan choosing her clothes seriously, Zhang Zhenwei waved to the nanny beside him. "Go and help Miss change her clothes."
"Sure." Nanny Chen smiled with her eyes bent into crescents. She closed the door and spent a long time with Yuanyuan helping her choose. She also took the time to explain to the little girl what a banquet was.
At first, Yuanyuan was confused, but soon she was rubbing her hands in anticipation.
Meanwhile...
Zhang Hang had secretly arranged for people to surround the Chu family estate. He set up multiple layers of defense within a radius of several miles around the estate to ensure that no one could enter or leave!
Then he rushed into the forensic examination room and personally examined the body.
...
It was almost evening when Yuanyuan finally took off her Taoist robe. She put on the Barbie - pink princess dress that her uncle had prepared for her. Nanny Chen had used a curling iron to make her hair into cute curls, and a large silk bow rested obediently on top of her head.
Holding Nanny Chen's hand, Yuanyuan walked out of the bedroom. When her eyes fell on the mirror in front of her, the little girl was so shocked that she rushed straight to it.
"Wow... so pretty!"
In the mirror, the baby had a pair of bright black eyes that sparkled like rippling waves. Her naturally - grown eyebrows were long and thin, with a slightly heroic curve. Her hair was fluffy, and her skin was as fair as porcelain. She held the corners of her skirt with her two chubby little arms and stood on tiptoe, twirling around like a little princess...
The bow on her head fluttered along with her movements.
Even Nanny Chen was amazed by her stunning beauty.
Yuanyuan had always been cuter than most children even when she was wearing her shabby Taoist robe. Now, in her gorgeous dress, she was like an expensive collectible figure, making people want to cherish her.
She was truly a child of the Zhang family!
Hearing the noise in the room, Zhang Zhenwei and Zhang Munan, who had already prepared for the banquet, walked into the room. When they saw the little girl, they were almost melted by her cuteness.
Zhang Munan, in particular, couldn't help but blurt out, "Holy cow!"
He immediately got a hard whack from Zhang Zhenwei's walking stick. "Get out of here! Don't swear in front of the child!"
Zhang Yuanyuan giggled and playfully shook the bow on her head.
"Thank you, Uncle Munan."
Damn it!
That sweet little voice! Who could resist it!
Zhang Munan would rather be beaten to death than leave!
He excitedly rushed forward, picked up the little girl like a precious figurine, and ran away before Zhang Zhenwei could react.
Zhang Zhenwei was so angry that he pounded the ground with his walking stick and roared after him, "Zhang Munan, are you crazy? This is the granddaughter I've finally found! Where are you taking her?"
"If anything happens to Yuanyuan, don't ever come back!"
"Got it, old man!"
Zhang Munan's annoying voice and Yuanyuan's giggles echoed in the air. Zhang Zhenwei let out a long sigh and shook his head helplessly.
Despite his scolding, a faint smile appeared on his lips.
It had been a long time since such a lively scene had been seen in the Zhang family.
The old man's eyes welled up with tears. In his mind, he saw another little girl who looked like Yuanyuan playing with her younger brother in the courtyard many years ago...
Daughter... can you see this...
"Let's go, Nanny Chen. Let's go downstairs too..."
In the evening, at the St. Regis Hotel...
Countless dignitaries and nobles arrived one after another. Luxury cars were parked everywhere, filling up the hotel entrance.
Everyone in Rongcheng knew that the Zhang family had suffered a great disaster five years ago. In that catastrophe, the old family head lost his daughter, and his granddaughter, who was still in swaddling clothes, disappeared without a trace.
Five years had passed, and everyone thought the child was dead.
No one expected that tonight, the Zhang family would suddenly announce the return of their granddaughter to the public.
What was going on?
A group of big shots came to watch the show out of curiosity. For a moment, the magnificent hotel lobby was filled with people.
While they were toasting and chatting, they grew impatient with the wait.
Just then, there was a sudden commotion at the door.
A high - profile Rolls - Royce slowly pulled up in front of the hotel. The door opened, and the imposing head of the Zhang family got out first. Everyone craned their necks and stared wide - eyed, trying to look behind the old man.
A few seconds later, a cute little head popped out of the car. Her eyes were full of curiosity as she sized up the surroundings.
Everyone's hearts skipped a beat!
Zhang Zhenwei smiled proudly and took Zhang Yuanyuan's hand. "Granddaughter, get out of the car."
He emphasized the word "granddaughter"!
Suddenly, the crowd erupted in excitement!
"The Zhang family is full of men, but they actually have such an adorable little girl!?"
"After wandering outside for so long, this child doesn't look the least bit rough. She's as delicate as a doll!"
"Is this for real!"
Under the excited gazes of the crowd, the little girl wasn't the least bit shy. She held her head high like a proud swan, took her grandfather's hand, and stepped out of the car. Then she hopped onto the ground.
The moment her cute puffy dress was fully revealed, Zhang Yuanyuan gave a sweet smile and waved to the crowd.
"Hello, uncles and sisters."
These words caused another stir in the crowd.
"Help! This child has such a sweet mouth. She called us sisters instead of aunts!"
"Ah! Look at her pink little face. She's just like Crayon Shin - chan! I just want to pinch it!"
"The Zhang family is so lucky. They just found such a wonderful girl. Who would dare to laugh at the Zhang family for being full of single men now? Hahaha!!"
"Something's not right. This little girl is wearing such a cute dress, but why is she still carrying a shabby cloth bag? Mr. Zhang, are you being mean to your granddaughter?"
After the initial excitement, everyone noticed Zhang Yuanyuan's shabby bag. Zhang Zhenwei blushed and retorted stubbornly, "It's none of your business..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a pair of warm little hands squeezed his fingertips.
"No! These are all my treasures. I carried it myself."
Well, her cute and well - behaved appearance melted everyone's hearts again!
These days, who doesn't love cute little babies?
"Old Zhang, how did you get such an adorable granddaughter? Hurry up and share your experience with us! We also want to have a cute granddaughter!" The old men in the crowd joked cheerfully.
Zhang Zhenwei pouted proudly, looking disdainful.
"With your looks, you can only dream about it!"
Zhang Munan didn't come in the same car as them and hadn't arrived yet.
Just then, in the midst of all the laughter and joy, a sarcastic voice suddenly rang out.
"Congratulations, Mr. Zhang, on regaining your precious daughter."
The voice was deep and hoarse, with a hint of coldness.
Everyone shuddered and instinctively fell silent, making way for the speaker.
The man slowly walked out from behind the crowd.
A middle - aged man in a suit showed his face. His pair of black pupils were extremely gloomy, like a deep pool. Just one look at him would make people feel a bone - chilling cold.
This man was very different from the kind - hearted men of the Zhang family.
His gloominess radiated from within, and he exuded a strong aura of killing intent!
Zhang Zhenwei stood in front of Yuanyuan, blocking the man's view of the little girl.
"Chu Heng, what are you doing here? We didn't send you an invitation!"
The man was the current head of the Chu family, who was notorious in Rongcheng for being ruthless and never showing any mercy. If anyone dared to touch his interests, they would surely end up in a bad situation!
Over the years, the only family that could rival the Chu family was the Zhang family.
Chu Heng had been eyeing the Zhang family's wealth for a long time, but he had never been able to win any projects against them.
Yuanyuan looked at the two men who were on the verge of a fight, with a confused look in her bright eyes.
Uncle Zhang Hang had surrounded their house, right...
How did this uncle get out?
