The person who was squeezed out was Chen Lu. Seeing that she could no longer squeeze in, she stomped her feet angrily and turned to look for her brother, Chen Chen.

Just as everyone was flattering Song Shi, Shi Xiao and the three siblings of the Shi family appeared at the door at the same time. The combination of handsome men and a beautiful woman was very eye-catching, causing everyone to look over and they couldn’t help but marvel at how good the genes of the Shi family were. The men were handsome, and the woman was beautiful. Every one of them was dazzling.

Although the three men were all wearing black suits, they were all different.

Shi Xiao’s black suit was embroidered with rust-colored dark patterns. If one didn’t look carefully, they wouldn’t be able to tell that it was red. However, if one could see the details, one would realize that this suit matched Yuan Shu’s gown. There was also a pure gold brooch in his chest pocket that matched the one on Yuan Shu’s neck.

Shi Lu was dressed very ostentatiously. He was wearing a rose-red shirt under his black suit jacket. The vibrant color accentuated Shi Lu’s confidence and charm.

As for Shi Bin, he was much more low-key. He was wearing a slick black suit, a white shirt, and a black bow tie. Many girls couldn’t help but take a second look at him.

Shi Yi was wearing a white fishtail gown. The one-shouldered design revealed her sexy collarbones and the bubble sleeves were stylish. She looked gorgeous and confident.

The four of them appearing at the same time made Yuan Shu look even more like an outsider who was isolated by the Shi family. The rumors about her and Shi Xiao being in a fight seemed more and more convincing.

Although Shi Lu, Shi Yi, and Shi Bin had been informed by Shi Xiao in advance that they had to maintain a distance from Yuan Shu at the banquet, they couldn’t help but look in Yuan Shu’s direction.

Yuan Shu gave them a silent look as a greeting. After receiving a response, the three of them walked into the venue and chatted with the others.

The few of them had their own social circles and quickly mixed in with the crowd at the banquet.

Shi Yi looked around and saw Chen Lu. When Chen Lu saw Shi Yi, her gaze became resentful, but she quickly avoided Shi Yi’s gaze. Chen Chen, who was beside her, nodded and greeted Shi Yi.

Then, Chen Chen led Chen Lu to the sofa booth where Li Ci and Li Ran were sitting. After they sat opposite them, the waiter served them red wine.

After Li Ci exchanged a few words with the waiter, the waiter changed Li Ran’s white wine.

The few of them chatted happily.

Shi Yi was puzzled. She remembered that Chen Chen ran a software company. He was usually busy in the company and rarely appeared at such events, so how did he know Li Ci?

This scene was also seen by Shi Xiao. He actually took the initiative to walk towards them and sat down beside Li Ci.

Shi Yi wanted to continue watching when a glass of wine was suddenly handed to her. She looked up and realized that it was Xu Zhi.

After Shi Yi took the wine, Xu Zhi strode over to stand beside her. Then, the two of them leaned against the wall and started chatting.

Xu Zhi said, “Your design is great.”

Shi Yi didn’t look at him. Instead, she was admiring Jiang Chen’s suit. “You don’t seem surprised that I dyed the fabric red.”

Xu Zhi smiled and said, “You’re not a rule follower. You’re a girl who can always surprise people. It’s the same this time.”

Shi Yi gripped the wine glass in her hand and bit her lower lip. After a long time, she said, “Actually, you don’t know me very well.”

After she finished the wine in her glass, she said, “The clothes you designed aren’t bad either. I’m looking forward to the outcome of this showdown.” With that, she placed the empty glass on the small table beside her and turned to look for Shi Bin.

As Xu Zhi looked in the direction Shi Yi left in, he sighed. Shi Yi was like a hedgehog with thorns all over her body now. She was filled with hostility towards everything around her, which made Xu Zhi’s heart ache.

Shi Bin and Tan Zhao were fawning over Wei Ci when Shi Yi pulled them away to accompany her.

As for Shi Lu, he was considered an anomaly. He was in the entertainment industry, which wealthy families despised the most, so there were very few people who socialized with him. On such occasions, he would usually find some good wine and hide in a corner where there were few people to drink.

He was enjoying wine on the hotel’s open-air balcony when a person walked over and stood beside him. Her left hand was on the balcony, and her right hand was holding a non-alcoholic drink.

“Do you mind if there’s one more person here?”
