Far away from everyone else, the Longs were arguing with each other after what happened.
"Yiyi, what were you thinking? You made a fool of yourself again and this time in front of the Young Princess." Chairman Long scolded the young girl who was already in tears.
"Darling, please... Your daughter"s image is already ruined again. She isn"t to blame, if only that stupid child didn"t show up everything would have been fine."
Madam Long explained furiously that it was the second time her image was ruined as well by Little Yan. She continued to ponder too, about what happened earlier. Since the way, the Young Princess expressed herself was exactly the same as the woman who rescued Little Yan last time.
Seeing her daughter so crushed and in tears, of course, the man felt sorry, "Yiyi, I"m sorry... Calm down now, I"ll go apologize to the Yuns later."
"Father, I"m sorry... I"ve ruined our family." She cried.
"Don"t worry child, the Young Princess is not someone who is likely to get her family involved with such matters."
"But father, what about the young heiress?"
Chairman Long almost forgot about the young heiress involved. He found out that she was the granddaughter of Chairman Yunlin. "Don"t worry, I"ll handle everything..."
Meanwhile, back in the party, everyone was still talking about what happened. It was something so shocking that they can"t easily forget about it.
"What do you think will happen to the investment now?"
"I"m sure the Young Princess is furious, especially the family were hoping for a marriage connection."
Each person"s lips were silent as their eyes focus on the girl walking down the stairs with the little girl in her arms.
Elizabeth wore the same designed dress, but this time the style of the skirt was different. The hemline was above her knees while a train runs to her calf
While the little girl in her arms wore the same shade dress like her. Her hair was decorated with different beautiful ribbons. The two looked like a mother and daughter as they walked down the staircase.
Elizabeth smiled seeing her family has not killed Yun Shen and his family, as she approached them, she introduced the little girl in her arms. "Mother, Father, Uncle, Grandpa say h.e.l.lo Little Yan…"
The three men weren"t pleased to see the little girl since their precious princess seems to adore the child. They started expression a gentle expression towards the little girl. They each greeted the little girl who was hiding her face in the woman"s chest.
"h.e.l.lo, Little Yan…"
The Yuns were concerned since they know Little Yan was a timid child. The fact she doesn"t do well with strangers and doesn"t talk at all worries them.
Elizabeth notices the worried expression on President Yun and Madam Yun, she ignored them as she softly talked to the girl. "Little Yan, you must say h.e.l.lo to them and greet your elders."
The Yuns felt devastated when the Young Princess requested something impossible from the child. As they were about to say something, they ever all fossilized when a miracle happened in front of them.
"h.e.l.lo…"
Little Yan greeted everyone as she buried her head again on the young woman"s chest.
"Baby, she as cute as you when you were a baby." Lady Zhao approached the child as she tries to win the child over to her.
Even Elder Chief Zhao was taken by the child"s charm as he coughed and said, "She is indeed cute, but my darling is still the cutest."
"I agree with Father…" General Zhao added, despite he was completely taken by the child"s cuteness and wish to carry her.
Elizabeth sn.i.g.g.e.ringly laughs as she replied to them, "Don"t worry Uncle, Grandpa I"ll always be your baby girl." She then looked at her mother who seems eager to spend time with Little Yan, "Mother, would you like to join us, I"m sure Little Yan is hungry."
Hearing her Auntie acknowledge the woman as mother, Little Yan looked at the woman and smiled, "Eat?"
Lady Zhao was overjoyed as she grabs his husband"s arms, "Oh, darling isn"t she just adorable."
Seeing his daughter and wife have acknowledged the child already left him hopeless. He has no choice but to accept the child, as if she was his granddaughter, "What would you like to eat?"
It surprised everyone when Little Yan actually went to the man"s arms as he carried her. But what surprised them was that the man himself actually showed such a gentle expression towards the girl.
Lady Zhao grabs her daughter as she whispers to her ears, "Am I dreaming..."
"If you are, then I"m dreaming as well mother..."
Lord Knightley notices the two whisperings to each other as he glared at them, "Let"s go she must be hungry."
All of them left, leaving the Yuns all in shock.
"What just happened?" Elder Chairman Yun asked confusedly about what he just witnessed.
"Little Yan just spoke." President Yun shockingly added.
"She always has..." Yun Shen responded as he left them and followed the people with his daughter.
Seeing the illegitimate granddaughter of the Yuns being carried by the almighty European King caused some of the crowd to go crazy. The fact the man was known to be cold towards everyone except for his wife and daughter yet he was carrying the child around. At the same time, even the Zhao seems to adore the child as well.
Kong Jinyi"s expression was deathly pale as she watched the child being surrounded by the Knightley and Zhao family. "Bai, what"s going on? Why are the Young Princess and her family taking care of the brat?"
"I don"t know, but don"t worry… It seems her family is a bit disappointed with brother. I"m sure they"ll take back everything. They hate people making a fool of them…" Yun Bai wishfully explained.
The two watches from a distance as the Young Princess continued to play along with the little girl.
Since the crowd has settled down. Yun Lin grabs the opportunity and walked up to the platform where the musicians were.
"Everyone, to welcome the Young Princess and her family I would like to dedicate this song for them." Yun Lin announced.
Yun Lin started playing the Sonata No. 14, Moonlight by Beethoven.
It pleases Yun Lin"s parents seeing how amazing the boy was doing and was able to capture the Young Princess"s attention.
"Father, what are we gonna do? It seems Bro Lin planned everything so well." Yun Lie annoyedly said.
Yun Zexian felt a sudden headache as he grabbed hold of his neck as he felt it sudden tense from all the stress. He was furious already that they"ll possibly lose the investment, but might possibly win it back thanks to his other brother"s son. "Calm down, I"ll think of something. Right now avoid doing anything foolish our family has lost so much tonight already."
"Okay..."
Elizabeth got up from her seat and thank the man for his performance, the crowd soon followed as they praised Yun Lin for his amazing performance.
"Darling, why don"t you play for us?" Elder Chief Zhao requested as the girl seated back on her chair.
"I don"t know Grandpa, they aren"t really the crowd of people who"ll appreciate true music," Elizabeth replied as she watched Little Yan who seems to be eyeing on the piano.
"Lili right father, people like them only play to win people"s attention. If mother was still alive, she"ll surely wish to go home now." General Zhao sighed, seeing another young man step forward playing on the piano as well.
"My dear brother, let them be... They are here to win our princess"s affection. The fact Young Shen revealed he has a daughter means a big opportunity for them to win Lizzy"s love."
Hearing the word love triggers something within Little Yan. Even though she doesn"t completely understand what it means and what the adults were talking about, she felt upset about it. "No, Auntie..."
"Little Yan is something wrong?" Elizabeth asked, startled from the little girl sudden action.
"No, love..."
Everyone seated on the table didn"t know whether they should laugh from hearing what the child just said or praised her that she somehow understand what they were talking about.
"The child seems to like you a lot Lili," General Zhao said, seeing the child was not pleased about them talking about Elizabeth being partnered with some man.
Lady Zhao then moved closer to the little girl and whispered in her ears.
Little Yan beamed such a joyful smile after what Lady Zhao said.
"Mother, what did you say to her?" Elizabeth wondered.
"It"s our secret, right Little Yan..." Lady Zhao looked at the little girl and wink.
"Secret." Little Yan responded as she played the words Lady Zhao said in her mind.
"Don"t worry, your Auntie will surely be your mommy in the future."
