Unexpectedly, Xue Liu suddenly asked Shen Xi, and she was momentarily stunned before honestly replying, “Yes, I know her.”

Xue Liu’s eyes immediately lit up, and she grabbed Shen Xi’s arm, asking, “Do you know where she is now?

Shen Xi didn’t know Xue Liu’s relationship with her mother, so she didn’t want to reveal Lu Shan’s whereabouts and simply replied, “I’m not quite sure.”

Jiang Xue, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, quickly said, “Master, I think

Shen Xi may have met Master Lin by chance in Rong City.”

Xue Liu nodded disappointedly and apologized to Shen Xi before leaving with Tiang Xue-

Shen Xi knew her mother had been in Beijing before, so it wasn’t surprising that she knew some people there. She didn’t think much of it and said goodbye to Gu Xing before returning to the classroom with Zhao Yuan. The next class was probably starting soon.

After class, as soon as Shen Xi returned to the hotel, she saw Zheng Huai and Guan Lei waiting outside her room.

“Cousin, why are you here?” Shen Xi asked curiously.

Zheng Huai, who was waiting for Shen Xi to open the door, said eagerly,

“Tomorrow is my mother’s birthday, and she wants to invite you to come.”

Aunt’s birthday? That’s something Shen Xi couldn’t refuse. She pushed open the door and said, “Okay, I’ll definitely go.’

Zhao Yuan, who was beside her, raised her cute little hand and asked, “Doctor

Zheng, can I come too? I want to eat cake.”

Zheng Huai happily replied, “Of course, you can. My mother likes lively occasions, so if you go, she’ll be very happy. Remember to send me your sizes later, and I’ll have someone prepare clothes for you. I know you’re here for training and probably didn’t bring formal attire.”

Zhao Yuan nodded her head vigorously like a pestle. Guan Lei, who was beside her, cleared his throat softly and tried to make his presence known.

Zheng Huai finally noticed Guan Lei and said, “Guan Lei, you can come too. Send your sizes to Xi, and I’ll prepare them for you. I promise to make sure you all look beautiful and handsome.”

Guan Lei smiled slightly in satisfaction.

The next day, after class, Zheng Huai brought a professional styling team to do hair and makeup for Shen Xi and her friends, and then they went to the hotel together.

Originally, for this birthday, Shen Qian just wanted to have a simple celebration at home. She didn’t expect Shen Xi to show up at this time.

The Shen family’s Old master thought it was fate and arranged a birthday banquet for Shen Qian, for her 49th birthday. It was just an excuse to send out invitations and have Shen Xi appear in public, to anger the Lu family, their long-time rivals.

At this time, in a courtyard located in the south of Beijing, a burst of furious voice suddenly frightened everyone in the yard. “Old Master Shen has gone too far. He actually used this as an opportunity to make Xi show up in public at Shen’s family. No way! Lin Sheng, you must attend the birthday party, and we will celebrate your 50th birthday.”

Lin Sheng rubbed his forehead and said, “Godfather, my birthday was just last month. It’s not appropriate. Besides, I’m only 46 this year.”

“What’s there to be inappropriate about?” Lu De glared at him and said angrily, “Last month was the solar calendar, and this month is the lunar calendar.”

Lu Lin, who was next to them, burst into laughter instantly. Lin Sheng glanced at his son with one eye and said unkindly, “IVs all because of Lin Lu’s incompetence. If you had brought Xi back from the airport that day, would I have to celebrate two birthdays?”

In an instant, Lu De’s eyes filled with anger shifted to Lu Lin, who immediately shut his troublemaking mouth.

Su Qing, who was at the side, smiled helplessly and then said, “Why don’t we go eat Shen Qian’s cake together? Shen Qian and I are friends, and Lu and Zheng Huai are classmates. It’s only right that we go congratulate them.”

Zhao Ru, who had silver hair and looked healthy, immediately said, “Great idea. We are all a big family, and Xi is also considered a guest who should celebrate with us, not just the host.”

Lu De slapped his thigh and thundered, “Great idea, let’s do it! Change clothes now, immediately! Hurry up!’

With Lu De’s order, the members of the Lu family began to act.

At this moment, Shen Xi had already brought Zhao Yuan and Guan Lei to the banquet hall. Zheng Huai said to the three of them, “You guys go take a look around. I’ll go see if my mom is ready.”

Shen Xi rapidly said, “How about I go meet your aunt first?”

Zheng Huai quickly waved his hand and said, “No need. My mom won’t come out until she’s done dressing up. Despite her age, she’ still wants to look beautiful.”

Shen Xi smiled and nodded..
