Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Grandfather Ji ignored all the stares and laughs in a heartily tone. He sighs in a big relief as he takes her hand and turn to look at the confused and surprised guests.

"Everyone, I would like to introduce you all to someone."

Hearing his words, everyone leaned in as if not wanting to miss an important news.

"As you all know, I have only one child and that is my daughter, Ji An Ling. My daughter married my son-in-law, Han Min Joon and moved away. For those who are unfamiliar with my son-in-law, he also goes by the name, Han Lin Qing."

At the mention of the names, everyone gasp in more shock than they already have.

They have not heard of a Han Min Joon, but they have heard of Han Lin Qing. He is the deceased CEO of H-International in City Z.

Grandfather Ji sighs a heart aching smile at the mention of his daughter and son-in-law.

"What the world did not know is that, my daughter and son-in-law gave birth to a beautiful girl."

He turns back to look at his granddaughter and a proud smile curls on his lip.

"And that girl is the lovely girl standing right here."

He raise the wind glass in his hand and looks at the invited guests.

"My real and only granddaughter, Han Yue Ling."

Everyone froze in silence at the sudden words from the birthday man. No one expected this kind of news at all. They had always believed that Ji Chu Hua was the only granddaughter, but it turns out, Han Yue Ling is the real one.

What kind of news is this?!

Ji Chu Hua's face pales even more than when she saw Yue Ling walked in through those doors. Both her hands curl into tight fists as she clench her dress.

Her murderous eyes did not leave Yue Ling's face at all.

Ever since she was young, she had always thought that Yue Ling was a cousin relative. When she heard that her aunty Ji An Ling was sterile, she was even happier. She may be born from the second Ji family, but as the only daughter closest to the main family, she held the position of granddaughter to both grandfathers and the sole heiress to Ji Corps.

However, never would she have thought that Han Yue Ling turned out to be the true heiress to Ji Corps.

Now she understood why every time her and her cousin brothers pick on Ji Jingxu, Yue Ling would always stood up for the boy. She was not some distant relative, but his very own sister!

Thinking this, Ji Chu Hua's eyes subconsciously wonders away only to land on the man next to her.

Seeing the look on his face, jealousy and anger rouse more inside her.

Seated next to the woman fuming in rage, Gu Ting Fei stares at Yue Ling like a lovestruck maniac who found his soulmate.

He has long heard about this supermodel. Her face was on the front cover of every magazine in Imperial. However, he never got to meet her in person until now.

His eyes continued to stare at her perfect face, then slowly lowers to the curves of her body. His eyes couldn't help but stop at her chest. Although her cleaveage is barely noticeable, one thing he knows is that her perfectly round breasts are way bigger than Ji Chu Hua's.

He struggles a gulp from his dry throat as he could feel the lower part of his body rise. Quickly, he shift his attention elsewhere. Anymore and he won't be able to stand up.

Thinking no one saw him, he calms himself down. However, Gu Ting Fei did not know that his movements were noticed.

Lu Tian who was just as shocked as everyone had finally calmed down. The granddaughter his mother has been nagging him to meet is not Ji Chu Hua, but his wife!

Now everything made sense.

When he left Imperial to City Z, Xu Long did follow her to the Ji Mansion. He thought it was because her paternal grandfather was friends with Grandfather Ji, but it turns out to be deeper than that.

Grandfather Ji isn't a family friend but her actual maternal grandfather.

However, as he stares up at his stunning wife, he suddenly heard a buzzing sound lurking nearby. His eyes then caught sight of the man who claims to be Ji Chu Hua's boyfriend.

'How dare this fly violate my wife with his filthy eyes!!'

A few seats from the vinegar eating man, Madam Lu could only keep her eyes on Yue Ling. Everything Grandfather Ji said did not enter her ears at all.

The longer she stares at Yue Ling, the more she could see the resemblance of her friend, Ji An Ling. It was no wonder why she thought they looked so much alike.

Eighteen years ago she met a little girl and now, eighteen years later, that little girl has grown into a fine young woman.

Her lower lip begins to tremble, and she slowly reach to hold her husband's hand.

"Dear… It has been her all this time…"

Seated to her right, Old Lu's feelings were not inferior to his wife's. No words can express how he is feeling at this moment. However, seeing his wife on the verge of tears, he takes a deep breath to steady himself.

As her husband and head of the Lu family, he should be the one who holds everything together for them.

He intwine their fingers together and gently squeeze her hand. It was his way of letting her know that he felt the same as she does.

Unaware of those at the table, Yue Ling carefully helps her grandfather sit down in his chair. With her eyes locked on the old man, she slowly pulls the chair next to him.

Unlike the scene that happened with Ning Mei, no one stopped her from sitting.

Just when she was about to sit down, from the corners of her eyes, she could see the person seated to her right suddenly stand.

Even at her taller height of 180 centimeters, this person still overshadowed her like a dark shadow.

Her brows slightly furrow as she turns, but before she could even turn to look at person, she felt a sudden warmth drape over her shoulders and transfers to her body.

With furrow brows, she looks down at the item that gave her warmth.

Seeing what it was, her brows furrow more as a thought came to her mind.

Why does this smell like Lu Tian?

Thinking this, she turns to look at the person who had abruptly stood up. However, what she saw dumbfounded her.

After Lu Tian saw the way Gu Ting Fei was staring at his wife, it was then that he noticed the gazes of the other single men. They all looked like a pack of hungry wolves waiting to devour their prey.

Annoyed with the eyes of these flies, he wished so badly to go up to each person and dig their eyes out for having such filthy thoughts towards his wife. However, if he did, it would be rude of him as this was Grandfather Ji's birthday.

Knowing he cannot do as he wishes, he abruptly stood from his chair and removes his tuxedo jacket.

Placing it over his wife's shoulders, he sighs inside. She is too beautiful that no matter where she does, she always attract attention.

Yue Ling stares at the man with widen eyes. Shocked? No… That word cannot even describe how she is feeling at this moment.

She knew he was acquaintances with her grandfather, but when he asked her to go with him to his friend's birthday, she never thought this friend was her grandfather!

By the word friend, it can be anybody!

If she had know, she would have came here with him.

She chuckles in disbelief and looks at him with a wide grin. It was as if this was the most surprising thing that has ever happened to her.

"Tian, your friend is my yeye?"

Seeing her smile that always melts his heart, Lu Tian sighs inside but nod his head with a simple 'Mm'. However, remembering how she only wore a dress, he purse his lip and pulls the lapel of his jacket together.

"Why are you dressed so thin?"

Not wanting other men to eye his woman's curvy body, he wraps her in his jacket like a spring roll.

It wasn't only because of other men that he is doing this, but also because he does not want her to catch a cold. It would not be good for their child.

Until her upper body was completely out of sight, he sighs a very tiny smile only for her to see.

"Wear my jacket for now. It will keep you warm."

Before she could respond to him, he place a hand on her back and helps her sit down.
