The abandoned daughter of a wealthy family turns out to be a lucky charm, changing the fate of her e

Shen Zhi peeked out from behind Shi Yue, her eyes filled with sincerity as she looked at Lu Weiwei with a gentle smile:

"You're absolutely right. If it weren't for Mr. and Mrs. Shen adopting me, I really wouldn't have had the chance to attend such a wonderful banquet. I'm incredibly grateful to them!"

Shen Zhi took the initiative to wave and greet the uncles and aunts beside her:

"Hello uncles, aunts, grandpas and grandmas, my name is Shen Zhi, the Zhi of gardenia. I will be a member of the Shen family from now on. Today is the first time I am meeting everyone at Sister Lu's family banquet. Please take care of me in the future."

Everything can only become a weapon for others to attack if you care about it. If she doesn't care about other people's opinions, then none of them matter.

Moreover, unlike Lu Weiwei, she was not vain; she was genuinely grateful to the Shen family.

Shen Zhi introduced herself with poise and grace.

Not shy, not stage fright—this courage is far greater than that of many children of the same age.

Shi Yue and Shen Mobai exchanged a glance, and then solemnly introduced Shen Zhi to everyone again.

"From now on, Shen Zhi is my only daughter, Shen Mobai. If anyone brings up any of the past matters again, don't blame me, Shen Mobai, for being impolite!"

In this way, everyone present who wanted to look down on Shen Zhi would have to consider whether their own family could compare to the Shen family.

Not to mention that Shen Zhi was dressed up exceptionally beautifully by Shi Yue.

The little girl was wearing a princess dress, with a sincere smile and dimples at the corners of her mouth that gave her an inexplicable charm. Many of the older guests at the scene took a liking to her at first sight, and more and more guests began to praise Shen Zhi.

Madam Lu couldn't bear to be humiliated, especially since she noticed that Shen Zhiyi was indeed more beautiful when dressed up.

Although she used to live in an orphanage, she had fair skin, and whatever she wore made her look radiant.

Looking at Lu Weiwei, she had been raised in the countryside and had gotten quite tanned. No matter how she dressed up, she didn't seem as refined as Shen Zhi.

How could Madam Lu bear to see her daughter being outshone by Shi Yue's adopted daughter?

Her narrow eyes darted around, and she smiled:

"No matter what, this daughter is not as capable as the son. Our Che'er got first place in the mock exam yesterday. He has a bright future ahead of him."

As soon as Madam Lu spoke, many former opportunists switched sides and returned to Madam Lu's side.

She didn't notice at all that Lu Yuche in the corner had his brows furrowed, as if he were somewhat embarrassed.

Shi Yue didn't have time to check her phone last night, and only after hearing Madam Lu's words did she realize that something was amiss.

She pulled Shen Linchuan aside: "Didn't you say you were number one?"

Shen Linchuan also looked at Lu Yuche, who was not far away, with the same puzzlement.

Although Lu Yuche had always been the top student, there was no need to tell such an obvious lie just to save face, right?

Sure enough, a student of the same age stood up to correct him:

"Aunt Lu, are you sure you're not mistaken? The one who got first place yesterday was Shen Linchuan, not Lu Yuche."

"Yes, I remember it very clearly. Shen Linchuan always just missed out on the best chance and always came in second place. But yesterday, he got a perfect score, and Lu Yuche was 20 points behind him."

In an instant, Madam Lu's expression changed drastically.

She subconsciously turned to look at her eldest son, Lu Yuche, whose face was grim as he gritted his teeth and admitted:

"I'm not actually first, it's just a mock exam. All I need to do is advance, right?"

Shen Zhi pouted, thinking to herself: She really cares about saving face, still trying to save face even at a time like this.

Mrs. Lu habitually assumed that her son must have gotten first place in the exam, which was why he was making such a big fuss about it. She never expected that she would lose face instead.

For a moment, Lu Zhenhua's face fell, and it was only by other guests changing the subject that the matter was brought to a close.

However, the Shen family stole the show at the Lu family banquet, which will inevitably be the subject of ridicule from others in the future.

Shen Zhi didn't feel embarrassed at all; it wasn't her who was losing face.

She followed Shen Xingye and began to forage for food at the scene.

She doesn't just want to eat!

We're going to eat and drink to our hearts' content!

Eat whatever is expensive!

Hmph hmph~

Lu Weiwei was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth.

How annoying she is! My luck always goes downhill the moment she arrives!

Isn't it true that whoever she, the beloved female lead, dislikes will suffer?!

Lu Weiwei was about to step forward to teach Shen Zhi a lesson when she caught a glimpse of a figure at the door and immediately suppressed her vicious expression.

She really is the main character!

He was bullied in the early stages so that he could slap Shen Zhi in the face even more later!

Lu Weiwei stepped forward with a bright smile and called out in a high-pitched voice:

"Brother Yun Shen~ You've finally arrived!"

The guests all looked towards the entrance.

A boy of about thirteen years old got out of a Hongqi car with the license plate number Bei A·1111.

Wearing a black suit, he still looks young but is already incredibly handsome.

Behind him followed an elderly butler, dressed in a standard three-piece waistcoat suit, whose demeanor was clearly extraordinary.

"Who is this little boy? How come he can ride in a car with this license plate!"

"A person who can be treated so kindly by the eldest daughter of the Lu family must be of extraordinary status."

"I heard that this is the eldest young master of the Fu family in Beicheng. He was kidnapped along with the eldest daughter of the Lu family. If it weren't for the Fu family's intervention, Lu Weiwei wouldn't have been found so easily."

"Is it the Fu family, the richest of the four major families in Beicheng?! The Lu family has actually benefited from this misfortune."

"Absolutely! Who knows, this chance encounter might even lead to a marriage alliance in the future!"

The comments around her struck a chord with Lu Weiwei.

She walked forward smugly, revealing her most satisfied smile:

"Brother Yun Shen, I..."

But Fu Yun Shen only glanced at her, then turned sideways to avoid touching her princess dress, and walked straight to Shen Zhi.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he smiled and said:

"Zhizhi, we meet again! What are you eating?"

At this moment, Shen Zhi and Shen Xingye were each holding a madeleine in their mouths, a soufflé in their left hand, and a cup of strawberry pops in their right.

With two people and four hands, they couldn't even free up a mouth to greet each other.

"Yun Shen, oh my god~"

Shen Zhi greeted him indistinctly, quickly chewed and swallowed the cookie in her mouth, and then smiled and greeted him again with two small dimples.

Fu Yun Shen also smiled, turned his head to take a handkerchief from the butler's hand, and gently wiped the cookie crumbs from Shen Zhi's mouth:

"What delicious food made you eat so quickly?"

Shen Zhi blinked.

Shen Xingye's eyes widened.

Who exactly is Zhizhi's brother?

Shen Zhi originally wanted to dodge, but when she saw Lu Weiwei behind her with eyes that were practically spitting fire, she instantly felt much better.

"This is so delicious! Xin Xin will definitely like it too."

"Huh? Hasn't Xin Xin arrived yet?"

Fu Yun Shen gave the old butler a look, and the latter immediately took a tray, put the madeleines on it, and prepared them.

"She'll be arriving a little late, so I'll trouble Zhizhi to keep her company for a while."

Shen Zhi slurped up a large mouthful of milk tea and said righteously:

"Don't worry! I've got your back!"

Shen Zhi was pulled to the other side by Shen Xingye to try some small cakes.

During this time, those who had been too afraid to speak to Shen Zhi earlier all came forward to greet her.

Shen Zhi looked at these fickle people with a polite but slightly embarrassed smile on her face.

It's obvious that she only came over eagerly after seeing Fu Yun Shen greet her.

Seeing this, the old butler behind Fu Yun Shen lowered his voice and said:

"Young Master, is it really alright to leave the young lady in her care?"

"Could it be...?"

"Won't."

Fu Yunshen knew what the old steward wanted to say and interrupted him decisively.

"It's rare for Xin Xin to find a peer who's willing to play with her, and I trust Xin Xin's own choice."

Shen Zhi will be Xin Xin's first good friend.

He understood Butler Chu's concerns, after all—

Gu Xin is his younger sister.

She is the true eldest daughter of the Fu family.
