Chapter 425: 392 Zhong Manhua was so angry she ended up in the hospital【2 updates】_2

She had invited Old Master Zhong to come, but Old Master Zhong said he would celebrate only Ying Zijin’s birthday.

Ying Zijin’s birthday banquet was held at the Zhong Family home.

After finishing the call with Ying Zhenting, Zhong Manhua took Ying Yuexuan and started to leave the hotel.

However, as soon as she exited the hotel, she was surrounded by flashing lights.

Many reporters had gathered at the hotel entrance, representing various media from Shanghai City.

Upon seeing Zhong Manhua and Ying Yuexuan, they lifted their cameras and immediately started taking pictures.

Ying Yuexuan’s face turned pale, and she immediately retreated, using her bag to shield her face.

“What are you doing?” Zhong Manhua’s expression was very ugly as she scolded angrily, “Taking pictures indiscriminately, infringing on rights of likeness, do you know that’s illegal?”

However, why would the media care about that?

They extended their microphones toward Zhong Manhua and started asking questions directly.

“Madam Ying, you have always kept Miss Zijin’s identity a secret. Do you feel that because she comes from the countryside and doesn’t understand the etiquette of a wealthy family, she can’t compare to Ying Yuexuan, and that’s why you don’t acknowledge her?”

“Madam Ying, last year the ISC official website already announced the selections for the international competitions, six people in total, and Miss Zijin was one of them. As I know, Ying Yuexuan is from the same school as Miss Zijin, and it’s quite obvious that the school didn’t choose Ying Yuexuan.”

“Madam Ying, Miss Zijin’s piano playing is celebrated as unparalleled. You mistook a fish’s eye for a pearl—do you regret it?”

Every question was razor-sharp, hitting where it hurt the most.

Zhong Manhua’s face turned various shades of red and blue, shivering all over from being interrogated: “You, you…”

One of the reporters continued with another question: “Madam Ying, now that the truth has been exposed and you still show favoritism, holding a birthday banquet only for your foster daughter, are you really fit to be a mother?”

Upon hearing this, Zhong Manhua felt a surge of anger rise within her and a string in her mind snapped.

She could not catch her breath and, tilting her head, fainted.

“Mom!” Ying Yuexuan hastily supported Zhong Manhua, panicked, “Mom! Quick, call 120!”

When the media saw Zhong Manhua faint just like that, they were all quite regretful.

They didn’t bother to help and just carried their cameras and left.

Ying Yuexuan, biting her lip, had no choice but to take out her phone and start dialing the emergency number.

At the Zhong Family’s place.

Unlike what Ying Yuexuan thought, aside from the students from Verdant Class 19 and the people Ying Zijin knew from the capital, not a single one of Shanghai’s socialites was invited to the old Zhong residence.

Ying Zijin had no intention of making her birthday party grandiose.

Elder Zhong took over the tasks from Steward Zhong, directing the servants as they busied themselves.

Fu Yunshen sat in the living room.

He turned his head, looking at the Verdant students playing outside in the garden, his gaze gentle.

“Young Master, you foresaw this,” Yun Shan whispered, lowering his voice, “You knew that once the Ying Family found out no one was coming, they would cause trouble, so you arranged for the media to go there in advance and purposely asked those troublesome questions.”

Fu Yunshen’s eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled with a touch of nonchalance, “Oh?”

This move, he had learned from Nie Chao.

“Young Master, you don’t know, Madam Ying was angered to the point of fainting,” Yun Shan gloated, “She’s been taken to the hospital now. Ying Zhenting and Ying Yuexuan have both gone there. It seems Ying Yuexuan will have to spend her coming of age at the hospital. Serves her right.”

“No,” Fu Yunshen said indifferently, “Today is just Yaoyao’s coming of age.”

Yun Shan was momentarily stunned, remembering that everything about Ying Yuexuan, from start to finish, including her name and birthday, was false.

“I really feel sorry for Miss Ying,” Yun Shan muttered, “to be stuck with such a family.”

Fu Yunshen appeared thoughtful, and after a pause, he spoke, “Soon, she will no longer be Miss Ying.”

Yun Shan was initially puzzled, but then realized and exclaimed with joy, “Young Master, have you won her over?”

Fu Yunshen’s eyelashes drooped as he smiled, “I’m pursuing.”

Yun Shan: “…”

Little did he expect, he thought the young heir was about to emerge.

In the garden.

Xiu Yu was poking ants with a stick while his ears perked up, “Daddy Ying, do you have any happy news to share?”

“Mm,” Ying Zijin leaned against a tree, “He confessed to me.”

She paused, raising an eyebrow, “You must have known in advance.”
