“Ying’er, hurry up. We’re leaving.”

Xiao Ying quickly blocked the door to prevent Madam Xiao from entering.

Just as Madam Xiao was feeling puzzled, Xiao Ying spoke.

“Mommy, I got it. I’ll come out after I fix my fake eyelashes.”

Madam Xiao was feeling satisfied.

Under her guidance, Xiao Ying had already learned some basic makeup skills.

Of course, the style she used was too mature.

Madam Xiao went downstairs without suspecting anything.

Xiao Ruoxuan heaved a sigh of relief.

Xiao Ying entered the washroom to remove her overly mature makeup.

When she came out, she saw Xiao Ruoxuan sitting at her dressing table and applying makeup to herself.

Xiao Ruoxuan smiled complacently at Xiao Ying.

It was this colorful face that made Xiao Ying take a step back.

Xiao Ying stopped Xiao Ruoxuan, who was about to leave.

“Aren’t you afraid that Mommy will find out that you’re going out like this?”

Xiao Ruoxuan panicked. “What should we do then?”

Xiao Ying watched as Xiao Ruoxuan whispered something into her ear.

By the time the two children went downstairs, the Xiao couple had already gotten into the car.

Xiao Ying took the initiative to sit in the backseat and waved at Xiao Ruoxuan.

Xiao Ruoxuan lowered her head and entered the car.

Madam Xiao glanced at the two children’s attire.

She was wondering about how she could use Xiao Ying as a contrast to her daughter at the banquet.

Due to the close proximity of the two children and their lowered heads,

For the moment, Madam Xiao really didn’t notice anything out of place.

They reached the banquet hall.

Madam Xiao looked at the lurid Xiao Ying with disdain.

She held Xiao Ruoxuan’s hand and walked towards the banquet.

Xiao Ying kept her head down to prevent Madam Xiao from noticing.

After entering the banquet hall, Xiao Ruoxuan’s outfit indeed caused a sensation.

The men were trying to hide their reactions.

All the women present started to mock her loudly.

Madam Xiao smiled helplessly. “My daughter is strong willed. I can’t do anything about it. I’m so embarrassed about this.”

These words made the women present who had children feel a sense of sympathy.

they immediately stopped mocking the Xiao family and directed all their mockery solely towards Miss Xiao.

But who was it?

Everyone now knew that the Xiao family had another daughter.

Just as Madam Xiao was about to say Xiao Ying’s name…

Xiao Ying looked up and spoke, saying, “Mommy, don’t blame my younger sister.”

Madam Xiao looked at Xiao Ying in horror.

She then turned back to look at the person who was standing stunned and at a loss.

Under the bright light, she could vaguely make out her daughter’s face.

No matter how stupid Xiao Ruoxuan was, she knew that the gazes around her were not good.

There were already tears in her eyes.

Madam Xiao screamed and ran out of the banquet hall with Xiao Ruoxuan in her arms.

She could not accept her daughter appearing like this in front of the public.

Xiao Ying surveyed the scene mockingly.

How must she be feeling now that her own daughter had jumped into a trap that she had personally prepared?

In just a short time, the four members of the Xiao family had become two.

Xiao Ying’s gaze turned to the crowd and greeted the uncles and aunties she had seen last time.

Those people all had quite a good impression of Xiao Ying, and they nodded back with smiles.

This time, the reputation of the two ladies from the Xiao family was widely known.

However, the evaluation was worlds apart.

This was the same as in her previous life, except that this time, the girl with the best reputation now was Xiao Ying.

Xiao Lingbo looked at Xiao Ying through the crowd.

She looked back at him with a faint smile.

Xiao Lingbo’s expression faltered. He knew that he had underestimated his adopted daughter.

He just didn’t know when Xiao Ying had figured things out and how much she knew.

Xiao Ying was doing it on purpose.

She had achieved her goal. She did not want to pretend anymore.

She would have to leave the Xiao family sooner or later.

Xiao Ying thought of her goal today and ignored Xiao Lingbo. She turned her head and walked towards the Wang family’s backyard.

The amulet told her that Cheng Yang was there.

Xiao Ying had just found out about this function.

Thanks to having brief contact last time, the amulet could now locate Cheng Yang.

But it required energy.

With limited energy, it could only determine the approximate location.

Xiao Ying sighed in her heart. Without energy, it was difficult to move.

Upon arriving at the Wang family’s backyard, Xiao Ying was dumbfounded.
