The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 322: Chapter 321: Changing Attitudes

Hearing her daughter’s words, Ding Yating glanced at her in surprise. Seeing the determination in her daughter’s eyes, she went along and said, ”Yes, I just thought wrongly. Since it’s Yiyi’s wedding, no matter how busy we are, we should attend.”

Yiyi raised an eyebrow at Ding Yating and her daughter, then said, ”It would be great if you and Yunfang could attend my engagement banquet. I’ll be waiting for you to come.”

Upon hearing this, Shu Yunfang secretly clenched her fists.

Yiyi’s words just now were basically a provocation, yet she couldn’t do anything about it and could only swallow her resentment.

Even if she knew she should remain calm and not do anything else, Shu Yunfang couldn’t help but glance in Gu Tingyu’s direction.

And with that glance, she saw Gu Tingyu looking at Mo Yiyi with full affection and tenderness.

Seeing this, Shu Yunfang felt utterly disheartened.

It turned out she had always been indulging in wishful thinking, while Gu Tingyu and Mo Yiyi were deeply in love. Her past affection for Gu Tingyu had become a joke.

Mr. Ding naturally knew about Shu Yunfang’s past feelings for Gu Tingyu. Witnessing the scene in front of him, he couldn’t help but shake his head and finally brought up the matter of the family reunion.

”Yating, let’s have lunch together the day after tomorrow to welcome Yue Jun and Yiyi. From now on, we’re family. I’ll invite the rest of the family too.”

Upon hearing this, Ding Yating knew that this meant officially acknowledging Ding Yuejun as part of the Ding family and announcing it to everyone.

”Alright, Yunfang and I will come then.”

Finally, Ding Yating took a deep breath and forced a smile as she looked at Mr. Ding, saying, ”Dad, it’s been so hard to find my sister, you two must have a lot to talk about. I won’t disturb you.”

Hearing this, Mr. Ding nodded to Ding Yating and said, ”Alright, you two head back.”

Ding Yating didn’t linger; she took her daughter and left the Ding family.

”Mom, why are we leaving so quickly? We’ve finally seen grandpa, we should talk to him more,”

Ding Yating glanced at her daughter and said, ”Do you think your grandpa is in the mood to talk to us now? His whole heart and mind are on Ding Yuejun and her daughter.”

Upon hearing her mother’s words, Shu Yunfang couldn’t help but bite her lip, ”Grandpa is really biased.”

”Alright, let’s hurry home.”

Ding Yating also agreed with her daughter’s words in her heart, but what could she say? Her father’s thoughts were never something she could influence.

However, when the mother and daughter arrived home, they found Shu Mingbo was already there.

”Dad, didn’t you have work to do today? Why are you home so early?”

Shu Mingbo’s face looked very displeased. He gave his wife, Ding Yating, a deep look and said, ”I heard you have a sister who was taken back.”

At these words, Ding Yating’s expression showed a bit of surprise, ”Even you know?”

”Hmph... It seems you knew long ago. Why didn’t you tell me about such an important matter in advance, making me hear about it from others? Do you know that your father has already started sending out invitations, inviting many families to the recognition banquet, saying he wants to introduce the eldest daughter of the Ding family to everyone?”

By the end of his words, Shu Mingbo’s eyes were full of disappointment.

He was very excited when he first married Ding Yating because she was the only daughter of the Ding family, which meant the future development of the Shu family would be different. But he didn’t expect his mother-in-law, Chen Meilian, to be personally sent to prison by his father-in-law, and his wife no longer being the only daughter of the Ding family. The most favored person now should be the eldest daughter Mr. Ding had found again.

Moreover, from the information he gathered over the past few days, it seems Chen Meilian was likely imprisoned for harming the former eldest daughter, and only then did Mr. Ding no longer tolerate her, directly having her dealt with. It was imaginable, being the daughter of Chen Meilian, that Ding Yating’s position in the Ding family in the future was very precarious.

As a result, their Shu family no longer held the same status in front of Mr. Ding.

Thinking of this, Shu Mingbo’s mood plummeted.

”I have things to do, I’ll be leaving now. You two can have dinner by yourselves tonight; I won’t be back for it.” With that, he walked out without looking back.

Seeing her husband like this, Ding Yating couldn’t help but redden her eyes. She looked at her daughter and said, ”Yunfang, why has your father become like this? He never talked to me like this before.”

To her knowledge, Shu Mingbo had always been gentle and indulgent with her, but now he had directly shown her a bad face and even bluntly said he wouldn’t come home for dinner.

Seeing her mother like this, Shu Yunfang couldn’t help but shake her head and said, ”Mom, now even grandpa almost doesn’t want us anymore, how can dad’s attitude be any better?”

Having gone through so much, she understood that relationships between people were always based on interests, even her biological father was no exception.

”How could this be, your father should be the one standing behind us, encouraging and supporting us.”

Ding Yating still couldn’t accept this fact.

She always thought Shu Mingbo loved her very much, but now she wasn’t sure anymore.

On the other side, after Ding Yating and her daughter left, Ding Yuejun felt much more at ease. She smiled and looked at Mr. Ding and said, ”Then I can also invite some people to come, right? I’d like to invite Mr. Chu and his family over.”

Hearing this, Mr. Ding quickly said, ”Of course you can. To be honest, I have to thank the Chu family. Even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have thought of inviting them.”

Upon hearing this, Ding Yuejun couldn’t help but laugh and said, ”Then thank you, father.” After returning to the Ding family with Mr. Ding today, she had already changed her way of addressing him, which made Mr. Ding very happy.

”Tingyu, your family will definitely come then, right?”

Gu Tingyu nodded with a smile and said, ”Yes, my grandparents and everyone will come.”

”Good then.”

Mr. Ding clapped joyfully.

On the day of the recognition banquet, the whole Gu family showed up. Yu Qiulan, full of smiles, took Yue Jun’s hand and said, ”Yue Jun, I see you’re looking better and better, truly getting more and more beautiful.”

At the end of her speech, there was a hint of envy.

There wasn’t any exaggeration in her words just now. Ding Yuejun was indeed becoming increasingly beautiful. They should have been of similar age, but Yuejun now looked as if she were more than ten years younger, which inevitably stirred a bit of jealousy.

Beside her, Zhuang Caixin cast a complicated glance at Yuejun, finally walking forward with a face full of smiles.

As for Mr. Gu and the Gu brothers, Yaohua and Yaozhong, they were talking with Mr. Ding.

Mr. Chu and others came early as well. After their arrival, they engaged in a warm conversation with Mr. Ding, while Jiang Yizi and others naturally went up to converse with Yuejun.

Aside from the Gu and Chu families, the Song family also sent someone, although it was just Song Chi who came.

”Yiyi, your godmother couldn’t make it, but she especially asked me to send her regards to you and your mother.”
