Transmigrated as the Tortured Female Lead’s Daughter

Chapter 403: Chapter 403: The Return of Cheng Qingyun

Translator: ShinoJ 

This banquet was held in a large manor in the capital. The main guests were the wealthy Americans. In the world of fame and fortune, it was possible to gain countless benefits by climbing up to the ranks of the powerful.

Gu Chu did not really like such flashy banquets.

However, she wanted to see if the female wealthy American was a character from the novel…

Gu Chu was sitting on the second floor of the castle on a small balcony. There were a few plates of exquisite snacks in front of her, and she was shaking her feet. Song Chen was sitting opposite Gu Chu. He had the intention to train Chu Chu. Chuchu’s future was limitless, and it would be beneficial for her to get in touch with the upper class as soon as possible.

In the hall, the moonlight was as bright as the sun. Men and women dressed in bright colors were drinking and chatting about the rich Americans.

“It’s strange that this Clear Sky Award is held in China.”

“Today, we’ll see the head of the Ming Group and another noble gentleman, Mr. Thomas. If we can befriend them, it’ll be much easier for us to explore overseas markets.”

“Mr. Thomas is only 30 years old this year. It’s said that he’s not married yet.”

“You’re thinking too much. He just got engaged a few days ago. It seems like he fell in love with Mrs. Ming’s goddaughter at first sight. It took him a long time to capture her heart.”

“Sigh, what a pity.”

The lively discussion went on endlessly.

The discussion fell into Gu Chu’s ears. Gu Chu was chewing on a small cake — Mrs. Ming, Ming Group, Thomas — Wait! Thomas?

Gu Chu’s eyes widened!

She exclaimed in her heart!

Just as Gu Chu was surprised, the banquet hall’s door was gently pushed open.

Mrs. Ming, her adopted daughter, and her future son-in-law elegantly stepped into the open-air Hall. Madam Ming was over forty years old and still had her charm. She had the graceful charm of an old Shanghai noblewoman from the last century. She wore soft animal fur on her shoulders, gold-rimmed glasses, and a cheongsam. She walked in with a smile.

However, what surprised the nobles the most was not this madam Ming!

It was the graceful and beautiful young lady beside Madam Ming.

“Uncle Song! Isn’t that… Isn’t that your ex-wife?” Gu Chu stood up with a whoosh. Gu Chu had not seen Cheng Qingyun for a long time. She thought that this woman would never be able to get up again, but Gu Chu had really underestimated her.

Cheng Qingyun was like an unkillable cockroach. As long as she still had a breath left, she would be able to stubbornly get up and try every means possible to climb back up.

Song Chen frowned. “Chuchu, she’s not my wife.”

I only have one wife, and that’s your mother.

Song Chen was also surprised. He didn’t expect to see Cheng Qingyun by Mrs. Ming’s side.

Since Song Chen announced the annulment of the marriage, Cheng Qingyun had disappeared for more than half a year. Who would have thought that in less than half a year, Cheng Qingyun would suddenly become the adopted daughter of the person in charge of the Ming group in the United States!

In the hall, thousands of rays of light gathered on Cheng Qingyun’s body.

Cheng Qingyun maintained an elegant and gentle smile. Tonight, she was wearing a high-quality daily gown. Her shoulder and collarbone were exposed, and her long, wavy hair spread over her shoulders. She smiled as she held her fiancé’s hand and looked at the shocked faces around her.

I, Cheng Qingyun, have returned.

What can’t kill me, ultimately makes me strong!

In the past, I became the laughingstock of the capital.

Now, I am the high and mighty Miss Ming, and the Ming family is mine! The man beside me is one of the richest people in the United States. He is my fiancé! I live a more glamorous life than all of you!
