"Hehe, don't worry, as long as you come, I will tell you the whole story. I just happened to hear about it."

Lian Chuchu's words made Nan Zhi have to pay attention. During this time, she had been deliberately avoiding the name Xi Yue and trying her best not to think about it.

But how did Lian Chuchu find out?

No, it must be Gu Ying.

"Think carefully about whether you want to come or not. I'll be waiting for your good news."

After saying that, Lian Chuchu hung up the phone.

Nanzhi lowered her head, staring blankly at the phone in her hand for a long time.

"Miss, do you really prefer to believe others rather than Shen Xingmian?"

The Meow Meow Machine, which hadn't made a sound in a long time, suddenly started talking, making Nan Zhi feel a little uncomfortable, probably because she hadn't heard its voice for so long.

Nanzhi sighed, "I don't know."

"Perhaps Gu Ying knows some things, but I think it's better for you to know this from Shen Xingmian."

Meow Meow Machine tries its best to prevent any estrangement between Nan Zhi and Shen Xingmian.

Nanzhi thought for a while before saying:

"Don't worry, I won't easily believe what others say."

Even if Chu Chu really said it, she would only listen to it, but she absolutely could not believe it.

Lian Chuchu was unaware of this. She only knew to tell Nan Zhi what Gu Ying had told her. However, from this, she could also guess that Shen Xingmian must have been in a relationship with a girl named Xi Yue.

The thought that Nan Zhi might not be as happy as she imagined stirred a surge of emotion within Lian Chuchu.

The purpose of holding this banquet was to cancel the engagement with Lin Feifan.

Lin Feifan agreed to let her speak first, as he felt somewhat guilty towards Lian Chuchu.

On the day of the banquet, Nan Zhi said goodbye to Bai Xiaolian and then left.

Shen Xingmian was unaware of this, and he had no intention of attending the Lian family's banquet. Although Lian Jin had mentioned it once, his words were full of disdain, and he had no intention of going.

When Nanzhi went there, there was no one she was on good terms with; neither Lin Youyou nor Qin Xier came.

Quite a few people she didn't know came up to greet her, and Nanzhi responded politely.

"Nanzhi."

Nanzhi turned her head and saw Li Weiwei. The look in her eyes was somewhat strange, and the usual disgust and ferocity were gone.

While harboring suspicion, Nanzhi glanced at her discreetly and said:

"What's up?"

Li Weiwei smiled and shook her head, saying:

"I really didn't expect you to come. Do you know what Lian Chuchu is up to?"

Nanzhi didn't want to waste words with her. "What does my presence have to do with you?"

Despite her attitude, Li Weiwei didn't seem angry. Ever since she learned Lian Chuchu's true colors, she was no longer the impulsive girl she once was.

The bloody lesson constantly reminded him that he must ruin Lian Chuchu's reputation.

"I have no ill intentions towards you, Nanzhi. Why don't we form an alliance?"

Li Weiwei's words made Nan Zhi frown slightly. At this moment, she also noticed that Li Weiwei seemed to have changed. Nan Zhi coldly curled the corners of her lips and asked:

"Li Weiwei, I remember how you used to want to tear me to pieces whenever you saw me. What? Did you forget to take your medicine today?"

Li Weiwei: "..." She glanced around and, finding no one approaching, said:

"I was foolish before. It was all because of Lian Chuchu that I hated you so much and treated you so badly. I hope you won't hold it against me."

Nanzhi wouldn't hold it against her, but they wouldn't spend much time together either, let alone form an alliance.

It seems that Li Weiwei and Lian Chuchu have fallen out for some reason.

This piqued Nanzhi's interest.

"Miss, don't gossip."

Meow Meow Machine spoke earnestly, and Nanzhi took it all in stride:

"Gossiping is a woman's nature."

Previously, including in the original work, Li Weiwei was a loyal admirer of Lian Chuchu. The two were clearly such good people, so why did Li Weiwei seem to harbor hatred towards Lian Chuchu?

What do you think of my suggestion?

Nanzhi glanced at her indifferently, "Not very good."

Li Weiwei, however, did not give up. After all, Nanzhi's status was much better than her fighting alone.

“A common enemy is a friend, Nanzhi. Don’t you hate Lian Chuchu? Why don’t you agree?”

Nanzhi smiled and said:

"Who said I hate her? I just don't want to have anything to do with her. As long as she doesn't bother me, we can live in peace."

Of course, it's impossible for Lian Chuchu not to provoke Nan Zhi.

Nan Zhi knew this in her heart, but she didn't want to have anything to do with Li Weiwei.

"Heh, do you think it's possible to not provoke you?"

Li Weiwei looked at Nan Zhi with a sarcastic expression, as if she had heard a joke, but it seemed like she was mocking herself, yet not quite.

"She can even scheme against her closest friends, so how could she possibly show you any mercy?"

Perhaps because Nan Zhi's determination was too strong, Li Weiwei did not continue to persuade the two to form an alliance. Instead, she chuckled and looked at Nan Zhi, saying:

"Alright, consider it my way of apologizing for what happened before. I'll give you a big gift today."

After saying that, Li Weiwei turned and walked into the crowd.

Looking at her retreating figure, Nan Zhi suddenly realized that Li Weiwei wasn't actually that bad; in the end, she had misplaced her trust.

Before long, Nan Zhi spotted Lian Chuchu, accompanied by an unexpected person, Xu Yao.

Lian Chuchu and He Lian are truly sisters; I wonder when Xu Yao came to the capital.

The Xu family was invited to the wedding, but Old Master Xu was unwell and unable to attend, so he sent Xu Jingzhi instead. Xu Jingzhi arrived but left without even eating.

It seems that Xu Yao probably arrived around that time.

Nan Zhi stood calmly outside the crowd, watching Lian Chuchu walk out step by step. Her face was pale, and she was being supported by Xu Yao. She looked as if she could fall over if a gust of wind blew her away.

Her father followed behind her, and after the three of them walked into the crowd, it was the head of the Lian family who spoke.

"Thank you all for gracing this banquet. I have to announce something in front of you all, and I apologize for the inconvenience."

They were just saying polite words. It's unclear what Lian Chuchu was thinking, but while the Lian family head was speaking, she deliberately glanced in the direction of Nan Zhi.

Nanzhi noticed this and frowned slightly.

"What's the announcement?"

"have no idea."

"Could it be about succeeding as the head of the Lian family?"

"Impossible. How could such a big event only involve so few people? Besides, succession is a major event, and I didn't see Lian Jin there either."

"I bet it's about that Miss Lian. Did you notice her expression?"

"Yes, yes, she looks very weak, and there are red marks around her eyes. She must have been crying. In my experience, she must have suffered some injustice."

......

Regardless of what others said, Lian Chuchu still stood obediently behind her father, waiting for him to speak.
