Shi Guang laid on her bed. Stretching her long, fair legs, she stared the ceiling while doing bicycle kicks. However, her mind was filled with images of Lu Yanchen’s expression from earlier on. A sense of unhappiness slowly found itself stagnating in her heart.
It wasn’t as though she HAD to go. What was he giving her that attitude for?
She didn’t even want to go! She wasn’t someone ambitious, and did not want to get involved with people from that circle. In any case, she found herself feeling more displeased the more she thought about it. Eventually, she made up her mind to not attend this party.
However, on the day of the party, Xiao Bai was already rushing her on the phone by noon. After a good deal of rubbish, Shi Guang eventually said that she was not free.
The moment Xiao Bai heard that, he could not take it at all as he moaned, groaned, and pleaded, “Sister, we agreed on it yesterday!”
“Sister, hurry and come!”
“Otherwise, otherwise… I’m not going to celebrate my birthday if you’re not here!”
The tender voice of the little fella drifted over endlessly from the other end of the call as he would sniff his nose in from time to time, seeming as though he was about to cry out. Even though Shi Guang knew that he was just teasing her, she knew that there was no way she could reject him as well.
After returning home to change, it was about time for her to head for the party.
The venue for the party was at a major restaurant—an extremely classy, VIP-only restaurant. Occupying a large area with a splendorous and magnificent furnishing, this was the choice venue for many parties held by the rich and powerful.
By the time Shi Guang arrived, the entrance was already filled with guests and bustling with noise.
Didn’t they say that it was only going to be a small party without many people? They had already reserved the entire restaurant, and they called it a small party?
Sweating out, Shi Guang started to feel a little nervous. She did not really want to head in, because she could already imagine whom she might bump into inside.
She turned around, yet she did not walk away. Escaping was not the solution–furthermore, she had already seen the person she didn’t want to see.
Turning back once more, she strutted forth and entered with her invitation.
The moment she walked in, she received all sorts of random gazes trying to size her up. She did not have to guess to know why. All of them must be trying to guess her identity. After all, anyone who could be invited to a birthday party by the Lu Family must be no simple person.
She did not catch sight of Xiao Bai, neither did she see Shen Lingshuang or Lu Yanchen. She then chose a slightly quieter place to take a seat before observing the others at the party socializing with one another.
Even though this was her first time coming into contact with such a glamorous upper-class crowd and she was careful in her actions without wandering anywhere randomly, Shi Guang didn’t feel fearful because of it.
Without leaving a trace, she had already cast her sight and swept across the entire flashy and beautiful place. Looking at how everyone was smiling out looking all amicable, Shi Guang wondered how many of them were hiding knives behind their faces while plotting against one another.
Just as she was surveying the messy crowd, she suddenly caught sight of Lu Yanchen who was staring at her with a deep and profound gaze from the 2nd floor.
Stiffening slightly, Shi Guang froze up in everything she was doing.
…
“Ay, Old Lu! What are you standing here all the time for? Just what in the world are you looking at?” Chu Mubei walked over from behind Lu Yanchen and nudged him with his elbow.
As he said that, he followed Lu Yanchen’s line of sight and instantly caught sight of Shi Guang as his lips curled into a smile, thinking of calling out Little Sister Shi Guang. Realizing that she wouldn’t be able to hear him from this distance, he chose to wave at her instead.
Another tall and handsome man walked over from the side while asking, “Who’s that?”
Chu Mubei beat around the bush. “Try guessing?”
The man eyed Lu Yanchen and could not help but snigger out while raising his brows, “Why? Old Lu, you’ve taken a liking to her?”
Chu Mubei burst out laughing, unable to contain himself, while Lu Yanchen ignored them and left coldly.
