Chapter 338 - 338 Coming-of-age Gift
338 Coming-of-age Gift
Everyone’s eyes turned to Xu Ni, who was wearing a white dress of the same color as Su Ji, as she appeared at the entrance!
Her dress and Su Ji’s were matching, but Su Ji’s was sexier, while hers was more conservative. It had a high neckline, a tight waist, and a very long skirt.
She didn’t wear a wig and still had her short black hair, which made her look very cool.
Her palms were all sweaty as she lifted her skirt. She took a deep breath and forced herself to face the light.
In the first three seconds before she walked up to the stage, some of the guests even started clapping reflexively before they knew what’s going on.
At the fourth second, the sparse applause stopped.
At the fifth second, everyone started chattering.
Starting from the sixth second, the sound of gasping rose and fell.
Lu Ailian’s eyes widened. When Xu Ni walked to the center of the stage, she looked as if she had seen a ghost, “what are you wearing?”
Xu Jinzhe couldn’t speak at all, as if he had completely lost the ability to speak. He stared at his “son”, and he looked as if he didn’t know him at all.
Zhang Guihua said loudly, “my dear….Xu Ni is a girl?”
She didn’t need to use the expensive razor she bought for her?
Her voice dispelled all the doubts in the hearts of all the guests, including Lu Ailian and Xu Jinzhe.
It was as if they had been hit in the head and struck by lightning.
Everyone was shocked. The discussion was getting louder and louder, and Xu Ni’s steps were getting heavier and heavier.
She couldn’t take it.
She thought that she could do it, but only at this moment did she realize how much courage it took to admit her true gender.
She wasn’t the one who had made the mistake, but she had to bear it all.
She couldn’t hear the crowd around her clearly. She only knew that they were all laughing and pointing at her.
There was an uproar in the audience, and only Su Ji and the other two were quiet.
Si Jingchuan was fixated on Xu Ni. Up until now, he had not had any reaction.
Pei Huai had just hung up a call and was currently typing on his phone.
Su Ji was looking at Xu Ni.
She watched Xu Ni lower her head and Lu Ailian, who looked at her as if she was a monster, and gradually lost the courage to move forward.
She was wondering if she had been too impulsive. She even wanted to run away at this moment, since she had already achieved her goal.
But then, she saw a white figure in a suit jacket pushing through the crowd and walking toward her.
Her vision gradually blurred.
The tear was about to fall, but in her distorted vision, she suddenly saw a figure jump onto the stage. Then, she felt a warm touch, and Su Ji held her hand.
Su Ji said, “I’ll walk with you.”
At this moment, Pei Huai put away his phone. There was someone on the stage that he was interested in.
She said it so easily that Xu Ni’s heart, which had been heavy since the beginning, suddenly felt relieved.
Su Ji’s fingers were intertwined with hers. They were tightly intertwined, and a force was transmitted through their hands.
Su Ji looked straight ahead, her eyes staring straight at Lu Ailian. “Raise your head and stick out your chest. Someone is taking photos.”
Xu Ni raised her head and strode forward as if she had been reborn.
The grandson that the Xu family had raised for 18 years had suddenly become a granddaughter. With such big news, almost half of the guests who were watching the show raised their phones.
They took photos, videos, and posted them online.
But very quickly, their attention was attracted by something else. The two girls in their camera were dressed like sisters. They were so beautiful that they looked out of this world.
Su Ji’s aura was too strong. She walked out of the chasing light, and the light fell behind her.
Su Junye shivered and itched as if bugs were crawling all over his body.
Zang Guihua, who was just watching the fun a second ago, was dumbfounded. She passed by a few people and asked Su Cunyi, “son, what’s wrong with Su ji? Why would she meddle in the Xu family’s affairs? Quickly pull her down!”
However, Su Cunyi didn’t seem to hear her. He stood still and looked at his daughter without feeling embarrassed at all.
Qin Bingjie’s face twitched slightly. Finally, when Su Ji brought Xu Ni to her side, she could no longer hold it in and burst into tears, but she tried her best to hold it in.
Xu Ni had always been worried that her mother would be triggered, but from her reaction, she knew that her mind was clear at the moment.
Xu Jinzhe looked at the crowd, and his eyes focused on Xu Ni, “son…”
He said that subconsciously but immediately stopped, but he couldn’t utter the word “daughter”.
He didn’t prefer daughters over sons, but this matter was too absurd. He needed time to accept it.
The son he had raised for eighteen years was suddenly telling him that he was a girl.
He was just shocked.
He tried again in a daze, “tell dad what’s going on…”
From the corner of his eye, he could feel Su Ji walking towards them. He asked Su Ji, “you knew?”
Even an outsider knew the real gender of his child, but he, as the father, found out with the other guests on the day of the party…
Su Ji did not answer him directly. Instead, she stopped in front of Qin Bingjie, who was trying her best to hold back her emotions.
Qin Bingjie raised her head slowly. Her eyes were bloodshot, her nose was red, and her lips were broken from her biting.
Her emotions were self-evident, and she no longer had the cold and arrogant air she had before.
Su Ji’s tone was calm. “Today is your daughter’s coming-of-age ceremony. She wants a gift from you. Are you going to give it to her? ”
Qin Bingjie’s gaze fell and landed on the faint teeth marks on the wrist of the girl in front of her.
The short half a month felt like a lifetime.
However, in just ten days, she had figured out something that she had not been able to for the past ten years.
In the past, she felt as if she had been in a long dream. Now she wanted to wake up.
Under the incredulous gazes of Lu Ailian and Xu Jinzhe, she stood in front of the microphone in silence.
In the past, she had been most afraid of this day, but now that it had really come, she actually felt a sense of relief, and she stopped crying.
The entire place was silent, and all the discussions stopped at that moment.
In front of all the guests, Qin Bingjie admitted what she had done back then. She said, “Xu Ni is a girl. She was a beautiful girl from the moment she was born…”
As soon as she finished the last sentence, there was a loud thud behind him.
“Mom!”
“Grandma!”
Lu Ailian fainted.
