Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain

Truth be told, if they wanted to go overseas, they could leave any time they wanted. But, Zhong Yuhuans purpose wasnt to be a bum overseas. It was to leave the Zhongs and gain a real skill. A skill that would allow her to be independent in the future. For that, she needed a lot of preparation.

This preparation took over six months.

Today, Zhong Yuhuan had turned 14.

Standing in front of the mirror, she was now truly a young woman.

Zhong Chi, learning that she would be leaving soon, needed to at least put up the front and host a birthday party for her.

Xu Yushan and Xu Xing had never had one hosted for them since they have come to the Zhongs, let alone changing their last names. Appearances have always been important to Zhong Chi, Xu Yushan and Xu Xing have not yet reached his standard, so, naturally, there wouldnt be any name changing. By this time, Zhong Chi even hoped that between Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan, one of them was actually his bastard child.

Almost half of the upper class from Hai City attended Zhong Yuhuans birthday party; even the ones who couldnt go had sent gifts, giving the Zhongs a lot of respect.

As soon as Zhong Yuhuan walked out in her evening gown, she heard others talking in a low voice, There is a difference between the daughter from the wife and children from a mistress.

Yes, thats the difference between a pheasant and a phoenix. Even if you throw them a birthday party, will they be able to not embarrass themselves?

Zhong Yuhuan looked up to the end of the hall when she heard that.

At the end of the hall stood Xu Yushan; obviously she had heard the conversation as well. Her face darkened immediately, and she didnt hide the hateful look that she gave her.

Zhong Yuhuan, on the other hand, was in a good mood and walked out slowly.

Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan were waiting outside. They were dressed up in formal gears as well; full suits, one in black and one in white. The two of them together looked like white and black knights.

The two kids from the welfare services have slowly grew into young men, and their bodies could now fill out a suit. They looked better and better.

Of course, at their current age, white tees and white shirts were still better choices for them.

Standing in the middle, they were both very pretty boys!

Even undergoing this voice-changing period, Li Jinyuan still said in a low and somewhat coarse voice, Huanhuan is very pretty today.

Huo Chengming, on the other hand, didnt say anything. Ever since he had entered into his voice-changing period, he had been talking as little as possible, as though he didnt want to embarrass himself in front of Zhong Yuhuan.

Zhong Yuhuan reached out her hands.

Understanding her meaning, Li Jinyuan and Huo Chengming both reached out at the same time and each took one of her hands into theirs.

My shoes today have heels, I dont want to fall, said Zhong Yuhuan as she lifted her foot to show them.

She was wearing lace-up shoes; her skin under the laces was white like snow.

They didnt see whether the heels were high, but they did notice her toes. Her toenails were clipped nicely and her toes were a bit pink; they were very pretty to look at.

Did you see? asked Zhong Yuhuan.

Neither one of them saw anything, but they nodded anyway.

Huo Chengming adjusted from holding one of her hands to her entire arm before he finally said in a low voice, No falling.

Zhong Yuhuan cocked her head and smiled at him, Thank you, Chengming-ge ge.

As they were talking, they have already arrived at the banquet hall.

The arrival of Zhong Yuhuan immediately attracted most of the attention.
