A big news story broke out of Hengyuan City: The Head of the Qin family from the capital found their biological son in Hengyuan City.
As soon as this news came out, the entire circle of big shots in Hengyuan City was in an uproar.
The Qin family’s status in the capital was almost untouchable.
And their family’s illegitimate son was actually in Hengyuan City?
Everyone knew that the Head of the Qin family only had one daughter. He didn’t have a son.
Furthermore, his wife had passed away last year.
This meant that this illegitimate son was likely to be the next heir of the Qin family!
This meant his status was going to be equivalent to Master Sheng! And Master Sheng was also in Hengyuan City today!
However, Master Sheng was not a person that they could get along with. Typically, they couldn’t even see the person. There was no chance for them to get on good terms with him.
However, it might be possible to meet the new big shot of the Qin family. If they are friendly with him when he’s young and inexperienced, it was undoubtedly a good way to get on good terms with him.
As soon as He Yan learned of this news, she asked someone to find information related to Qin Chuan.
To her surprise, she discovered that Qin Chuan had interacted with the Jian family before.
He had been hired by Jian Yuncheng to be Jian Yiling’s tutor.
He Yan couldn’t help but laugh coldly. Jian Yiling’s life was indeed very good. A tutor that her brother had casually found was to be the heir of the Qin family.
Then, she remembered that Jian Yiling and Zhai Yunsheng were also close friends. The more she thought about this, the more unhappy she became.
When Jian Yiling heard about this news, she was quite confused.
According to the original novel, Qin Chuan was not meant to return to the Qin family for at least three more years.
Now, in this timeline, he returned to his family three years earlier.
Was there something different that happened?
Jian Yiling began to ponder about it. The only thing that she had changed in relation to Qin Chuan was his mother’s illness.
In the original novel, Qin Chuan’s mother would have already died by this time.
Could it be that because Qin Chuan’s mother was alive, it opened up the possibility for Qin Shixuan to find Qin Chuan and his mother?
###
The Qin family hoped for Qin Chuan to immediately return to the capital. However, Qin Chuan insisted on staying in Hengyuan City. His mother’s condition was still not completely stabilized.
After receiving instructions from his cousin, Qin Shixuan decided to organize a banquet in Hengyuan City. During the banquet, they would make Qin Chuan’s identity public.
Many people from Hengyuan City were invited to the banquet. Some of the people who got invited had business connections with the Qin family and others were related to the Qin family in some way or another.
The Jian family also received an invitation from Qin Chuan.
In reality, Qin Chuan’s invitation was intended for Jian Yiling.
It was Jian Yiling who helped his mother get better. This was something that he would not forget.
However, Qin Chuan had promised to not reveal her identity to others. And thus, he could not directly invite Jian Yiling.
Thereby, he simply invited the entire Jian family.
The Jian family was also one of the largest families in Hengyuan City. It made sense to invite them. No one would think too much about it.
After the Jian family received the invitation, He Yan was the happiest.
Wen Nuan who was previously indifferent about such events had also dressed up this time.
Today, she was going to go to the banquet with her daughter. It was a rare opportunity to spend time with her daughter.
Wen Nuan looked at herself in the mirror before she turned around and asked her husband: “How do I look? Do I look fine?”
Wen Nuan wanted to show off her good side in front of her daughter.
Jian Shuxing praised his wife: “You’re very beautiful. Don’t worry.”
Wen Nuan added: “I’m not afraid that I’m not beautiful. I just want Yiling to like my outfit. Yiling complimented this outfit before. She also liked the jewelry that accompanied this outfit.”
