Chapter 789 - 790: The Grand Finale (1)
While the Tang family was full of joy, Dongfang Kuo, on the other hand, felt as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
In just a few days, he had come up with countless excuses to visit the Tang family and see his long-lost daughter, now finally reclaimed.
Each time he saw her, she was extremely polite.
Her courteous manner and tone treated him only as Dongfang Xuyan’s grandfather, not as her own father.
Helplessly, he had to bring Dongfang Xuyan with him, hoping Shi Mei would have a change of heart.
However, Dongfang Xuyan, a devious character, exclaimed loudly, "I don’t want her to become my aunt!"
Dongfang Kuo was infuriated, but he also knew it was hard for Dongfang Xuyan, who had grown so much, to accept a classmate suddenly becoming an aunt.
After several days of futile roaming, Dongfang Kuo was so worried that he sprouted a few more white hairs.
Eventually, after consulting with his children, he decided to prepare a lavish dowry for this daughter who refused to recognize him.
On the day Shi Mei and Shi Lingyan got engaged, Dongfang Kuo bought headlines on major media platforms.
The headline was striking: "Asia’s richest man, Dongfang Kuo, finds his long-lost daughter, the current hottest new pop star: Senior Sister!"
This explosive news soared to the top of platforms worldwide.
In no time, Senior Sister’s fame echoed around the world.
Additionally, Dongfang Kuo purchased various music platforms and had all of Senior Sister’s songs played on repeat, and within less than a week, Senior Sister became a globally sought-after top-tier influencer.
Shi Mei was dumbfounded, but she couldn’t turn down such handed-on-a-platter promotion.
Following Dongfang Kuo’s stunt, the news of Shi Lingyan and Shi Mei’s wedding received support and congratulations from people everywhere.
On the wedding day, Dongfang Kuo presented a dowry worth one billion.
Holding real estate, shares, cash, and bodyguards, it filled the surrounding three streets from their wedding venue.
Such a spectacle directly made the front page of the Global Daily.
The names of Dongfang Kuo, Shi Lingyan, and Senior Sister Shi Mei (Tang Mei) were firmly linked in the hearts of people internationally.
In March, the second year after the wedding.
Tang Wu woke up feeling extremely nauseous.
Shi Lingyan sprang out of bed, seeing her condition, and immediately had a crazy, daunting thought.
Ignoring her protests, Shi Lingyan packed her up and took her to the hospital.
Two hours later, the news of Shi Mei being pregnant spread from mouth to mouth.
Grandma Shi was so delighted that she wanted to feed Shi Mei all the best nourishments she knew.
However, since Grandma Shi couldn’t cook, this task still relied on Aunt Chen and Granny Tang.
Under Granny Tang’s feeding regime, which resembled fattening a pig, Shi Mei successfully went from a standard weight of 90 pounds to a chubby figure of 120 pounds.
Had she not consistently exercised, she might not have been able to even walk as her due date approached.
On the day of delivery, Granny Tang and Grandma Shi were busy preparing the maternity pack, while Shi Mei was secretly doing yoga in her room.
Since she had been caught by Grandma Shi once during her eighth month, she didn’t dare to exercise openly anymore.
But pregnancy made her feel so uncomfortable all over that Shi Mei felt she had to stretch out or she might break down completely.
Just as she was stretching, suddenly the voice of Granny Tang came from the door, "Xiao Mei!"
