Seeing that it was almost time, Zhong Nianyao took Lu Yichen's hand and returned to the hall.

As soon as they entered the hall, almost everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao.

Those who can come here to attend Mr. Zhong’s birthday today are all people of the same class. There are even some who are the first-class wealthy families in the imperial capital. It's just that some of the sidelines that didn't get much attention came.

They had heard a lot about the Lu family, the top family in the imperial capital, and had seen photos of the Lu family on TV, in magazines, and on the Internet. However, little is heard about the third master of the Lu family. I only know that he is in poor health and has been recuperating all year round.

However, what no one expected was that the third master of the Lu family was also a very secretive person. The last time the officials were able to help clear the way and clarify things in person, everyone had a new understanding of Mr. Lu.

After such an experience, everyone knows that even if they are covered with the appearance of a sick person, they are actually deeply hidden.

Of course, the most talked about thing about that incident was not only the strength of Mr. Lu, but also the matter between him and Zhong Nianyao. The reason why Mr. Lu was so anxious at first was because Zhong Nianyao was injured.

However, I never heard of any interaction between Mr. Lu and Zhong Nianyao ever since. As time passed, everyone gradually forgot about this matter.

Who would have thought that we would see Mr. Lu here today.

Today is Mr. Zhong’s birthday party. Not only is Mr. Lu here, he is also so close to Zhong Nianyao. Does this mean that these two people are setting a rhythm?
In the dark, Zhong Mengxuan's eyes were full of jealousy when she saw the talented and beautiful appearance of Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyaolang.

At this time, Lu Yichen didn't look as cold as before at all. He was dressed in a decent haute couture suit and dress, coupled with his handsome facial features, which made people fall in love with him.

As for Zhong Nianyao, even if she was unwilling to do so, she had to admit that Zhong Nianyao did have enough capital. Her exquisite facial features, small alchemy skills, and even an ordinary dress could not conceal her elegance.

These two people, even standing there alone, are enough to attract everyone's attention. Now that the two appear in the same frame, the shocking effect is definitely not the simple effect of one plus one equals two.

However, what makes Zhong Mengxuan feel jealous the most is that Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao can hold arms, which is something she will never be able to do in her life. She always hides in a dark corner, watching Lu Chenran and Long Jiarui standing in front of everyone, accepting the praise of others.

Thinking of this, when she looked at Zhong Nianyao, the jealousy in her eyes became even deeper.

As if feeling something, Zhong Nianyao suddenly raised her eyes and looked towards Zhong Mengxuan.

Suddenly seeing Zhong Nianyao's actions, Zhong Mengxuan was startled and withdrew her eyes with some guilt. However, as soon as his thoughts changed, he felt that he had done nothing wrong. Why should he avoid Zhong Nianyao's eyes?
So, she gave Zhong Nianyao a hard look.

Seeing Zhong Mengxuan's sullen look, Zhong Nianyao only found it funny. She slowly withdrew her gaze and soon came to Mr. Zhong. She said with a smile, "Grandpa, happy birthday."

Seeing Zhong Nianyao and Lu Yichen, Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong had obvious smiles on their faces.

"You girl, where did you go to hide and relax just now! Your grandma and I searched everywhere, but we couldn't see any trace of you, girl." Although he said complaining words, the look on Mr. Zhong's face But he always had a smile on his face, and when he looked at Zhong Nianyao and Lu Yichen, he felt even more kind.

"Grandpa, I didn't go anywhere!" Zhong Nianyao stretched out her finger and pointed at Lu Yichen beside her, and then directly put all the responsibility on Lu Yichen, "You really can't blame me this time. After he came here, he said he wanted to visit the garden. "

"As a host, I naturally have to try my best to meet the needs of the guests. What's more, this is just a small matter, and it should be arranged. Therefore, as the host, I naturally fulfill this small wish."

Lu Yichen, who was beside him, found it very interesting to listen to Zhong Nianyao's serious nonsense. If the current situation wasn't inappropriate, he would really have teased Zhong Nianyao.

However, in such an environment, it was naturally impossible for him to keep Zhong Nianyao from coming to the stage, so he nodded, "Yes, I asked her to take me to the garden first."

"Mr. Zhong, I'm sorry for not telling you in advance."

Mr. Zhong is old and naturally a good person. When he saw Lu Yichen's appearance, he knew what it meant. So, he didn't say much, but smiled and shook his head.

Soon, the party began.

Since today was a birthday banquet, it was time to give birthday gifts. However, Zhong Nianyao didn't like to join in the fun, so she just stood quietly and looked at the gifts given out by those in the Zhong family.

However, just because she doesn't look for trouble doesn't mean that trouble won't come to her.

After giving the gift to Mr. Zhong, Zhong Mengxuan looked directly at Zhong Nianyao with a hint of inquiry in her expression.

"Zhong Nianyao, your grandparents are the ones who love you the most in normal times. Now on such a big day as grandpa's birthday, why don't you take out the things you gave to grandpa now."

"So that everyone around you will know what a filial person you are, Zhong Nianyao!"

"Zhong Mengxuan," Mr. Zhong stopped him directly, with a hint of warning in his tone, "Do you have filial piety? It can be determined by more than just a few words. How do you usually do it? Your grandmother and I It’s all seen, there’s no need to show it here.”

After hearing Mr. Zhong's words to defend Zhong Nianyao, Zhong Mengxuan felt irritated. She quickly smiled and said, "Grandpa, why are you so angry! I'm actually just curious."

"On weekdays, you are most fond of Zhong Nianyao. Naturally, I am curious about how she will repay you! Besides, it is very appropriate to open gifts on such an occasion."

When she said this, she turned directly to Zhong Nianyao, and then said directly, "Nianyao, you should have prepared a gift! Maybe you are shy, so you don't dare to take it out! Or, are you right? I don’t even dare to let outsiders know about my grandfather’s filial piety!” (End of Chapter)
