Reborn As Super Heiress

”Are you... Lawyer Huo?”

Looking at the woman walking at the front, Tong Jian seemed a bit uncertain, hesitantly asking.

Huo Sining smiled and nodded, ”Mr. Tong, you have a good memory, to recognize me just from a phone call. Indeed, I am Miss Elisa’s lawyer, entrusted by her to visit Tongtong. I wonder if it’s convenient for Mr. Tong here?”

As she spoke, Huo Sining deliberately let her gaze wander around the room, then her eyes fell on Hanghang, showing a slight concentration, before she shifted her attention to Liu Jingjing, who was crying sadly nearby.

”Oh, what happened here? Why is the child crying so suddenly?”

Hearing Huo Sining’s question, Tong Jian felt a bit embarrassed, letting out a dry laugh, and said, ”Kids throwing tantrums, crying is normal. Lawyer Huo, please have a seat, please. And these two are?”

Tong Jian’s gaze fell on the two people behind Huo Sining, trying hard to divert her attention, while continuously giving signals towards his wife.

Huo Sining seemed to not notice Tong Jian’s odd behavior, smiled, and said, ”These are my friends, here to visit Tongtong together as well.”

With that, Huo Sining called Su Qingqing and Yingzi, and the three of them sat down on the sofa in the living room.

Huo Sining looked with interest at Zhang Jing and Tong Jian’s faces covered in rashes, slightly curving her lips, curiously asking:

”Mrs. Tong, is this your son in your arms?”

Upon hearing this, Tong Jian and Zhang Jing were suddenly startled, exchanging nervous glances.

Huo Sining laughed, ”No need to be nervous, I’m just casually asking. How old is the child?”

Huo Sining’s smile was quite deceptive, appearing very harmless, coupled with her youthful and slightly naive appearance, causing Tong Jian and Zhang Jing, who were initially very wary of lawyers, especially those sent by Elisa, to lower their guard, even showing a hint of disdain towards Huo Sining’s group in their expressions.

Tong Jian looked down on Huo Sining because this young girl in front of him didn’t match the stern and imposing image he had of lawyers from memory. The girl looked quite young, perhaps just graduated from college, and how much experience could such a newbie have? Not to mention trying to control him, he reckoned she’d believe anything she was told.

Tong Jian was quite dismissive of Huo Sining, having already forgotten the previous awe he felt when he answered the phone and sensed the imposing aura from the other side.

As for Zhang Jing, she was even more dismissive; she couldn’t believe this young girl could be a match for her, and was confident she wouldn’t fall victim to her schemes.

Moreover, she wasn’t afraid of this Huo woman, for the money they had wasn’t given by her.

Thinking like this, the two of them immediately relaxed, nonchalantly saying:

”Yes, this is my son, and he’s two years old.”

”I heard from Elisa that back then, Mr. Tong, you adopted Tongtong because you couldn’t have children. It seems you owe your blessings to Tongtong, this child brings fortune, not only bringing you wealth but also a son. Mr. and Mrs. Tong should cherish your fortune.”

Huo Sining nodded slightly, seemingly unconcerned with this suddenly appeared son, yet her words felt unintentionally pointed, sounding particularly harsh to Tong Jian and Zhang Jing’s ears.

Zhang Jing’s face immediately changed, wanting to argue and explain that her own son wasn’t brought by Tongtong, it was the blessings they accumulated as a couple, a gift from heaven.

However, before she could speak, her husband stopped her.

Tong Jian knew well what his wife was like, naturally not daring to let her speak recklessly again. If by chance they offended this woman in front of them, and she went to badmouth them to Elisa, leading to a reduction in their money, it wouldn’t be worth it.

So, despite feeling uncomfortable with Huo Sining’s words, Tong Jian had to endure, smiling obsequiously, nodding, ”Lawyer Huo is right, Tongtong is indeed our little lucky star.”

Huo Sining’s gaze paused on Tong Hang for a moment, then quickly shifted to Liu Jingjing, curiously asking:

”Is this child Tongtong?”

Liu Jingjing was still crying, but not as loudly, because after Huo Sining entered, this little girl was captivated by the beautiful lady in front, especially drawn towards the unique aura Huo Sining exuded, causing kids to be naturally attracted, so although Liu Jingjing was still sniffling, her large eyes were fixed on Huo Sining.

Seeing this, Tong Jian quickly signaled Liu Jingjing to speak up right away.

Unfortunately, Liu Jingjing, being so young, had long forgotten the play acted with Tong Jian and Zhang Jing the previous night, especially since Tong Jian and Zhang Jing’s faces were unrecognizable now, and Zhang Jing was reckless with her insults. Liu Jingjing felt only fear and loathing for this couple, naturally ignoring Tong Jian’s cues.

Originally, Tong Jian and Zhang Jing planned to review and practice with Liu Jingjing in the morning the content acted yesterday to make her more proficient, but due to their sudden onset of a rash the previous night, they were preoccupied with seeing a doctor.

Upon returning home, the child’s crying and fussing turned the house upside down, making Tong Jian and Zhang Jing quite exasperated, completely forgetting about this matter.

Yet coincidentally at this moment, these three uninvited guests, led by Huo Sining, decided to drop by unexpectedly.

By now, it was too late to deny it.

Seeing the situation, Tong Jian became anxious, hurriedly interjecting:

”Yes, this girl is Tongtong, Miss Elisa’s daughter. I suppose this is Lawyer Huo’s first time meeting her?”

With that, Tong Jian approached Liu Jingjing, attempting to lift the little girl while saying:

”This girl is five this year, and in our family, we treat her as our own daughter. You see how fair and tender she looks? It’s clear we’re not lying.”

Huo Sining had already noticed upon entering that there was an additional child in the house, and judging by the child’s age, she was about the same age as Tongtong.
