On the day the final exams ended, I changed into a high-end dress and went to my grandfather's 66th birthday party.

This birthday party was not only to celebrate my grandfather's 66th birthday, but also to announce to the outside world that the future head of the Qiao family would officially become Qiao Ye.

My grandfather stood on the stage and announced that the full authority of the Qiao family was officially being handed over from my father to my younger brother.

As for me, I had no strong desire to inherit the family fortune; I just wanted to be a carefree woman.

Everyone praised Qiao Ye for his abilities; that kid was practically grinning from ear to ear.

An hour into the party, my grandfather used his poor health as an excuse to leave and rest.

Little did we know, at that moment, a woman suddenly burst in and threw herself into my grandfather's arms.

I saw the woman's face clearly.

Who else could it be but Li Wanwan?

Qiao Ye quickly called the security to separate my grandfather and Li Wanwan.

Li Wanwan cried with tears streaming down her face, "Brother, please don't abandon me!"

What? She called him brother? My grandfather?

"Li Wanwan, have you lost your mind!"

Li Wanwan looked at me in surprise, "What are you doing here?"

Before I could answer, she didn't even bother with me and tried to throw herself at my grandfather.

"Brother, you can reject Wanwan, but you can't reject the baby in Wanwan's belly! He's still so young, he can't be without a father!"

I was completely bewildered.

Wait a minute, my grandfather is already 66 this year.

The party erupted into chaos; no one expected to witness such a dramatic scene.

Considering my grandfather's esteemed and respected life, no one ever imagined he would have such an incident in his old age.

My grandfather furrowed his brow, tapped his cane on the ground twice, and said sternly, "Young lady, do you know what you're saying?"

"Of course I do, brother, have you forgotten the night we spent in Alaska? It was that night I became pregnant with your child!"

I knew about my grandfather's trip to Alaska, but what does that have to do with Li Wanwan?

I was utterly confused as Li Wanwan pulled out a pregnancy test report, sat on the ground, and cried incessantly.

"I know you may look down on my status, but... but our baby is innocent!"

"Brother, even if you don't want Wanwan, you can't abandon our baby!"

Li Wanwan burst into tears without giving anyone a chance to explain.

The people in the banquet hall looked at her with strange gazes.

I knew Li Wanwan too well; whether this child was my grandfather's or not, she deliberately escalated the situation, and it would likely end up being true in the end.

"Child, such claims require evidence!"

"Of course, I have evidence!"

Li Wanwan threw out a stack of photos. In the photos, Li Wanwan leaned against my grandfather, both lying on white sheets, with Li Wanwan showing a happy smile.

"This is my evidence!"

It seemed she came prepared.

I would not allow Li Wanwan to tarnish my grandfather's reputation.

Dealing with such a shameless and aggressive person required me to be even more shameless and aggressive.

Before my grandfather could speak, I stepped forward and slapped Li Wanwan hard.

I put all my strength into that slap, and Li Wanwan's left cheek instantly turned red.

"Jiang Huaichu, who the hell do you think you are to hit me!"

"Who am I? I'm the one who won't tolerate your lies and deception!"

Upon hearing this, Li Wanwan sneered, "Do you think you can flaunt your wealth and power in front of me just because you have a little money? Look closely, Jiang Huaichu, the future Mrs. Qiao in your family! Who do you think you're talking to!"

I laughed; how could someone be so shameless.

"Li Wanwan, if I remember correctly, you're a month younger than me, right? Have you ever thought about the fact that my grandfather is already 66 years old!"

"So what? Age is never a problem in true love!"

Li Wanwan smiled smugly, completely shameless and unaware of her own disgraceful behavior.

Next moment, she finally realized the meaning behind my words.

"What do you mean by 'grandfather'?" Li Wanwan glared, "Aren't you surnamed Jiang!"
