Chapter 451: Chapter 451 - This Cant Be Real

“Qingsang, Yuxin. Come over here.”

Old Master Li reached out to Su Qingsang and Su Yuxin, giving special attention to Su Qingsang. His eyes were full of love.

Su Peizhen’s uneasiness was getting stronger and stronger. She stood there and her body became a little stiff.

What on earth was happening here? Why would Su Qingsang be standing next to her mother? Why did her grandfather speak to Su Qingsang with such a gentle voice?

Su Peizhen had many questions. She wanted to rush forward, but her feet were rooted to the spot and she couldn’t move.

Uncle Zhang and Xiaoyu had also followed her in by this time. The two wanted to stop her, but then looked at each other and decided to head back to the kitchen.

Forget it. Pretend as if they had not seen anything. Anyway, Su Peizhen could also be considered as one of their bosses. They had no right to stop her.

Su Qingsang was a little nervous when she saw the large group of people in the living room, although she had met these relatives before.

At that time, she was just an illegitimate daughter and was invisible in the Su family. However, it was completely different now.

She couldn’t help but look at Li Qianxue, who stood behind her, and when her mother met her eyes, she squeezed her hand and took her to stand before Old Master Li.

“Today we have invited everyone over for a big announcement.”

When Old Master Li said this, his voice sounded a little emotional.

He was getting on in years was not in particularly good health. These days, because of their amazing discovery regarding Su Qingsang, he did not sleep well for a few nights.

“We have always known that the Su family had another daughter, Qingsang.”

Old Master Li took Su Qingsang’s hand. He and Li Qianxue stood on either side of Su Qingsang.

Su Qingsang felt that the tension within her had almost dissipated thanks to Li Qianxue’s reassuring touch.

“In fact, coincidentally, Qianxue had given birth to a child at the same time as another woman in the hospital did. After she gave birth, a nurse had accidentally switched the two children.”

Old Master Li spoke in a rather casual tone, but all the guests stared at him with wide eyes.

Switched? Was he trying to say that...

“In actual fact, we also learned about it only recently by pure chance. It turns out that Su Qingsang is Qianxue’s daughter.”

“There is no lie in this matter. We have already done a DNA test.”

There were murmurs in the crowd. Some people gasped in shock.

All eyes were cast on Su Qingsang again, some with judgment or dissent. Either way, they were all focused on Su Qingsang.

“I called you here today to explain Qingsang’s life experience and her real identity to everyone.”

“Since I now know who Qingsang really is, I will naturally give her the treatment she deserves.”

Old Master Li’s words were powerful and resonated strongly as he looked at the people in the middle of the living room.

He did not explain his meaning exactly, but it was obvious. Su Qingsang was mistaken for another in the past, so everyone thought she was an illegitimate daughter.

Now it turned out that she was not an illegitimate daughter, but the heiress of a huge financial enterprise. Therefore, these people were now doubtful regarding what would become of Su Qingsang’s attitude.

Another thing was that Su Qingsang was now the Li family’s granddaughter. More importantly, she was the Su family’s young lady.

If others tried to treat Su Qingsang with the same contempt and impoliteness as before, then the Li family would naturally refuse to let it go without consequence.

Those who were invited today all had some kind of connection with the Li family. Each one of them was also a person of high status.

After hearing what Old Master Li had to say, who would have failed to understand what he meant?

The most important guest was the older cousin of Old Master Li, whom Li Qianxue would call “Old Uncle”, and who now nodded with a smile.

“And so we are celebrating today because you have finally reunited with your granddaughter? This is truly joyful news.”

While talking, he took out a box from his pocket and held it out to Su Qingsang.

“Come. Now that you have acknowledged your relatives, take this as a welcome gift.”

Su Qingsang did not take the box immediately. Great-uncle Li spoke to her, but she turned her face to look at Li Qianxue.

Li Qianxue patted the back of her hand. “This is coming from your great-uncle’s heart. You should take it.”

Old Master Li had let his cousins of the same generation know about this matter before they came by, so his announcement, in fact, was only a surprise for the younger people.

Su Qingsang accepted it and bowed slightly to Great-uncle Li. “Thank you, Great-uncle.”

“Good, good.” Great-uncle Li nodded again and again, apparently very satisfied with Su Qingsang’s manners.

Now that great-uncle Li had given her a gift, her great-auntie was not stingy with her welcome either.

“Your grandfather told us in a hurry, and I wasn’t prepared. I have a small gift for you too. You can wear it and remember this occasion.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Her great-aunt took out a velvet box that looked like it contained a bracelet.

Su Qingsang picked it up and nodded. “Thank you, Great-aunt.”

The two elders had now given their blessings. Their children and grandchildren, Li Qianxue’s peers of the same generation, now needed to show their welcome as well.

However, today they had all come in a hurry, and they hadn’t received the amazing news in advance as Great-uncle Li had.

For a moment, the people didn’t know what to do. They wanted to show their acceptance to Su Qingsang, but they had neither gifts nor the right words.

Then Great-uncle Li’s son suddenly remembered that there was a piece of jewelry in his car that had been prepared as a gift to someone else. It was very expensive and was just the right gift.

He was just thinking about picking it up, but unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw Su Peizhen standing outside their circle.

“My... Niece?”

Just now, while Li Qianxue was busy introducing Su Qingsang, Old Master Li had been staring at the guests.

He was planning to pull out the DNA test report if anyone questioned it.

Su Yuxin stood apart with a few people his age. None of them paid attention to the things happening outside the circle of people in the living room, so no one had even realized that Su Peizhen was there as well.

After her cousin called out, Su Qingsang’s attention was drawn to him. At the same time, she also saw Su Peizhen.

And in the instant their eyes met, Su Qingsang, clear as day, saw the shock in Su Peizhen’s face, and also...

She realized that Su Peizhen had heard and seen it all.

The moment that Old Master Li saw Su Peizhen, there was embarrassment and discomfort in his face.

It was a fact that they had now acknowledged Su Qingsang as the granddaughter of the Li family. However, Su Peizhen had been with him for so many years and they had a connection.

Although he hated what Su Chenghui did, no one thought to blame it on Su Peizhen at all.

After all, if one did not know any better, one could not be held responsible.

In the past few days, Li Qianxue and Old Master Li had considered Su Peizhen’s situation and what she would do in the future. Because of this consideration, the father and daughter had deliberately discussed how to deal with Su Peizhen.

After having raised her for so many years, it turned out she was an adopted daughter. They would need to pick a time for Su Chenghui to explain everything to her.

Later on, they could give her a dowry to marry her off in a respectable fashion. It could be said that they were all being quite benevolent.

But then no one would have thought that Su Peizhen would return so suddenly, or that it would happen right at the moment when she would see Su Qingsang introduced in a public announcement.

Both father and daughter felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

After a few moments, Su Peizhen appeared to have returned to her senses after being completely stunned.

Step by step, she walked towards Li Qianxue.
