Xi Cheng explained his plan seriously, then said in the end, “While those people in the family don’t know about Rongrong and Tiantian’s existence yet, we can prepare early and catch them off guard.”

Huo Tian didn’t know much about complicated struggles over family rights. She said in boredom, “I roughly understand what Dad means, but what do you need me to do?”

Xi Cheng looked at Huo Tian dotingly and said with a smile, “Tiantian doesn’t have to do anything. You just need to be a little princess who’s being doted on and stand in the limelight.”

Huo Tian rolled her eyes at Xi Cheng. “Dad, is it very difficult to make things clear?”

Ding Rong and Ding Chen laughed.

Xi Cheng said helplessly, “Alright, alright, I won’t keep you in suspense. Actually, this is my plan. Your 19th birthday will be in another month or so. I’ll hold a grand birthday banquet for you in China.”

“I’ll invite the family members and some business partners from abroad to attend. At the birthday banquet, I’ll announce your mother and your identity in front of everyone. At that time, you don’t have to worry about anything. You just need to be a little princess in the limelight and who is sought after.”

Huo Tian was very familiar with the tricks in such banquets. In her previous life, she had participated in many banquets organized by wealthy families.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

No matter what the reason was, engagement parties, birthday banquets, or other holiday banquets were actually meant to provide the wealthy people of high society with information and a stage to seek cooperation.

Of course, in her previous life, Huo Tian had never been the protagonist of a banquet. Every time she attended a banquet, it was almost always to find those wealthy and big shots to pull in investments or promote some of the small things she had invented.

Although Huo Tian had gained a lot from such banquets, she was sincerely tired of such events. Hence, the three adults realized that Huo Tian did not feel happy about this, but she was also lying on the table unhappily.

Xi Cheng was afraid that he might accidentally make Huo Tian unhappy, so he asked carefully, “Tiantian, is there anything you’re dissatisfied with? If you have any ideas, you can just bring them up. I’ll get them to immediately follow your ideas and make new plans.”

Huo Tian shook her head and said gloomily, “Actually, it’s nothing. Dad, you wanted to hold a banquet out of other considerations. I just need to be a tool. It’s just that I think the most perfect birthday only requires family members and friends to celebrate it simply together.”

Xi Cheng immediately felt a little guilty. “I’m sorry, Tiantian. I’ve made things difficult for you.”

Huo Tian patted Xi Cheng’s arm understandingly. “It’s alright. I’m very willing to help Dad deal with those petty people in the family. It’s just that I’ll say this first. I can temporarily occupy the position of the successor, but Dad, you mustn’t think of throwing the family business to me. I know nothing about these things and I’m unwilling to learn how to manage a huge family and company. Therefore, this is just a stopgap measure. Dad, you’d better carefully consider how to choose a suitable successor for the family.”

“Tiantian, I’m your father. Of course I know which field you’re best at and like the most. I won’t force you to take on things that you don’t want. As for succeeding the family…”

Xi Cheng smiled mysteriously. “We’ll talk about this later. Maybe I’ll find a way that works well both ways.”

Huo Tian did not know what the method Xi Cheng mentioned was, but she did not intend to ask further. Hence, she nodded indifferently and said, “Alright then..”
