Liang Ruo's dust-washing banquet failed in the end, and no one dared to do this unless Lu Yanbei said anything.

But those who should meet still have to meet.

Three days later it's Gu Yao's birthday.

Gu Yao didn't plan to make a big deal, so she just made an appointment with some familiar friends in the circle to play together.

Gu Yao called and said she would come to pick her up.

Ji Xingchen refused: "You are the protagonist today, stay there to entertain the guests, I will drive there by myself later."

Gu Yao thought for a while and felt that Ji Xingchen was right: "Okay, I'll pick up Qi Yue on the way, so you won't have to take a detour later."

"OK."

After hanging up the phone, Ji Xingchen went back to the house and changed into another piece of clothing, a long silk dress with red suspenders. Her long hair was slightly curled and spread over her shoulders like ink. She put on delicate makeup, put on stilettos and went out.

When he opened the door, he met Ji Ran face to face. Ji Ran's expression suddenly changed: "She's dressed like a goblin, maybe she went out to seduce men."

Ji Xingchen glanced at her, "Are you itchy again?"

Sometimes she couldn't understand Ji Ran. He had to provoke him if he couldn't afford it, and he still had to talk to him if he couldn't be beaten.

Ji Ran hesitated, probably because she was afraid that she would be beaten. She took two steps back and kept a safe distance from Ji Xingchen: "Why are you so arrogant?!"

Ji Xingchen was too lazy to pay attention to this idiot, so he walked past her and left.

Ji Ran was furious at the back. She actually knew what Ji Xingchen was doing, but Gu Yao had invited most of the young masters and daughters in the circle to his birthday. Even Qi Yue was invited, but she was not on the list.

Ji Ran couldn't swallow this breath at all, why could he only play with some little sisters who had no status in the family, while Ji Xingchen only came into contact with some rich people from the upper class circles.

They are all from the Ji family, why are they so different?

Ji Ran kicked the door in front of him like he was venting his anger, making a "bang" sound.

Qin Li happened to come from another hospital, frowned and scolded: "What are you so crazy about?"

Ji Ran clenched his fists, "Mom, Ji Xingchen went to attend Gu Yao's birthday party!"

Qin Li glanced at her coldly: "Then you are still here?"

Ji Ran lowered his head and said unwillingly: "She didn't invite me."

Qin Li was originally unhappy because she was teased by Ji Xingchen a few days ago, but now that her daughter was so unsatisfied, her anger suddenly rose.

She slapped her away and directed her anger for the past few days on Ji Ran: "Why did I raise such a loser like you!"

Ji Ran wiped his tears in grievance and did not dare to speak out. He hated Ji Xingchen even more.

…

The North City is brightly lit at night.

Ji Xingchen arrived at the club and met Zhou Sui around the corner.

He was holding a cigarette in his mouth and leaning against the wall, looking like he was not stingy.

Seeing Ji Xingchen coming over, he smiled and said, "Long time no see, sister-in-law."

Ji Xingchen paused and looked up at Zhou Sui.

She was not close to Zhou Sui, and her only memory was in high school, because he and Lu Yanbei stayed together all day long and were closer than brothers.

When Ji Xingchen observed Lu Yanbei, he inevitably had some understanding of Zhou Sui.

After taking the college entrance examination, Zhou Sui went abroad to study and lost contact with them.

Ji Xingchen nodded, "When did you come back?"

Zhou Suidao: "A month ago, I originally planned to invite you and Yanbei to get together, but I never had time."

Ji Xingchen naturally didn't take such polite words to heart, so she corrected him: "Lu Yanbei and I are going to divorce soon. Don't call her sister-in-law. I'll listen to you."

Zhou Sui laughed: "Okay, let's go, I'll take you in."

The two walked side by side.

Ji Xingchen held up the hem of her skirt. The silk satin material made her skin even more silky white. The emerald earrings on her earlobes gave her a cool and luxurious look.

Zhou Sui had met many women over the years, but he still felt that Ji Xingchen was the best in the world.

Tsk, this Lu Yanbei is really holding fish eyes as pearls and doesn't know what is good or bad.

Zhou Sui thought to himself.

If he can't catch up with that girl Gu Yao, it would be a good idea to take Ji Xingchen into his pocket.

Occasionally I have to change my taste and try something stronger.

The private room was very large, and it smelled of nicotine, perfume, and alcohol. When combined together, it wasn't too unpleasant.

When everyone saw Ji Xingchen and Zhou Sui coming in together, they couldn't help but be surprised. Isn't Mr. Zhou a friend of Mr. Lu this time? Why didn't my husband come, but my brother came with his sister-in-law?

The marriage hasn’t been divorced yet!

Gu Yao, the birthday girl, was sitting in the middle. Seeing Ji Xingchen coming, a smile broke out on her face: "Xingchen, come here quickly."

Ji Xingchen picked up her skirt and went over. Someone next to her said hello, and she nodded in agreement.

"Happy birthday." Ji Xingchen took out a delicate small box from his bag and handed it to Gu Yao.

Gu Yao answered with a smile: "Why are you here so late?"

Ji Xingchen sat down and said, "There was a bit of traffic on the Jingchuan Bridge, so we were delayed for a while."

Qi Yue asked: "You didn't call Jiang Shu here?"

Gu Yao's eyes widened: "Why did I ask her to come, to cause trouble for myself? Besides, Jiang Shu and I are at odds now. I put her in trouble for a few days last time, and she hates me now. Why?"

You might come to my place again."

Qi Yue: "That's true. You hurt Jiang Shu very badly last time. She has calmed down a lot during this time."

Before the few people could finish speaking, there was a voice coming from the door.

"Yao Yao, why didn't you tell me your birthday? I didn't even have time to prepare a gift."

This sound?

Ji Xingchen slowly opened his eyes and looked up.

Liang Ruo stood there with a smile, wearing a white skirt, like a lily. Behind her, Lu Yanbei followed.

Now everyone is even more guessing, brother and sister-in-law, husband and Bai Yueguang?

What combination is this?

It seems that the divorce rumors circulating in the circle these days are true and they are not a quarrel.

These two people are serious about it.

Guessing is just speculation, this group of people still dare not talk too much. After all, the Ji family and the Lu family are both the top wealthy families in Beicheng. Anyone who has nothing to eat and is willing to offend these two families.

Liang Ruo looked through the crowd and glanced at Ji Xingchen.

Her red dress is eye-catching and her skin is as white as snow. She just sits there with a proud posture.

Just this glance was enough to make Liang Ruo feel a sense of crisis.

She subconsciously looked behind her. The man was taking off his suit and giving it to the waiter beside him. No one seemed to care about his cold peach blossom eyes.

Liang Ruo felt relieved a little. No matter what, Lu Yanbei came with him today, and that was enough.

She smiled and walked towards the booth next to Ji Xingchen, "Yao Yao, this is the birthday gift prepared by Mr. Lu for you. I didn't prepare it because I didn't know about it in advance, but Mr. Lu and I can still share it.

."

She really didn't know where this woman Liang Ruo got such a big face! Gu Yao was about to stand up and argue with Liang Ruo, but was pulled down by Ji Xingchen.

Ji Xingchen said softly: "With your status, why bother with an inferior person? Don't lower yourself."

Her voice was neither too loud nor too soft, and just as Lu Yanbei came in, everyone held their breath and concentrated due to his aura, so everyone in the box heard this sentence.

Everyone here is not a child of a wealthy family, and they all have arrogance in their bones. Many people look down on Cinderellas like Liang Ruo.

Ji Xingchen made them all feel comfortable.

But at the same time, they all looked at the gentle and cold man at the door.
