"Lu Yi, hurry up, you two get ready. We'll take you to choose your dresses. You're the star of the day, you can't just wear anything!"

Without saying a word, Fan Huijun grabbed Ruan Jiaojiao's arm and started walking out.

"Jiaojiao, right? Does she weigh 80 pounds? What are her measurements...?"

Seeing her impulsive and unpredictable nature, Gu Huaibei put down the box in his hand, shook his head helplessly, and chuckled.

"Your sister has even forgotten why she came here!"

“Lu Yi, the date for the banquet has been set. Dad needs you to finalize the guest list… He’s invited everyone he could, but they’re all elderly people from that generation.”

"Look around, among your classmates and friends, who are your close friends, even just those whose names you can recall? Dad wants to see you surrounded by lively people."

His impression of Lu Yi was that he was a taciturn, aloof, and uninteresting loner.

In the time he had known Lu Yi, he hadn't seen Lu Yi get close to anyone.

Liang Shiyue and Lin Xiaoya, who were once close to him, seem to have gone their separate ways at a crossroads, each going their own way.

Just thinking about it makes you feel the extreme loneliness in this child's heart.

Lu Yi hesitated for a moment.

"No need. I don't have many friends. Godfather will have to take care of his old friends. I won't cause any trouble."

Gu Huaibei frowned. "But you can't have no one to support you. Those old guys are all cunning foxes. They might just show their faces and leave. You don't want your godfather to feel uncomfortable, do you?"

Fan Shenglun wasn't the flamboyant type of businessman, but Gu Huaibei knew very well that if a carefully organized banquet was left deserted with only the main characters present, the old man would inevitably feel unhappy!

"Never mind, I knew you wouldn't think of this."

Gu Huaibei took out a list. "Time is of the essence. Cross out the names of those you don't know well or those you're not friendly with, and invite the rest. That's settled!"

Fortunately, he had made preparations in advance; otherwise, Lu Yi might not have been able to gather even one table of people by the end of the banquet.

"Come on, what are you two dawdling about!"

Fan Huijun gripped the door frame, poked her head in, and urged her impatiently.
