On December 12th, Gu Nanyan's birthday, he did not invite any elders, but only a group of close friends to spend the day together at Biluo Xiaozhu.

Everyone brought their partners, except for Hua Yueli and Zhou Zhi who had a child. However, considering they didn't know how late they would stay out, they didn't invite the child.

Aunt Wang prepared a buffet in advance and set up a flowing stream at Biluo Xiaozhu.

"Your birthday this year was uneventful," Hua Yueli said as she fed Zhou Zhi.

Biluo Xiaozhu has such a great environment. Looking across the entire capital, only Jingning Mountain and Yunding Mountain can compare to it.

Why didn't it come out?

When the music ends, the strings are carefully drawn back; the four strings sound as if tearing silk.

Ji Luqi stood up. "You don't know that Han San died in the Southeast Prison, do you?" Her beautiful eyes lifted slightly, and she took a few steps to stand in front of them.

"I know some of it." Xie Yunyu followed Shen Juanqing and gradually became familiar with these people.

Xie Yunyu was never an arrogant person. She understood from a young age that there are always mountains beyond mountains and people beyond people.

He picked up a tissue and wiped his mouth. "Originally, Han San should have been living quite comfortably in prison. The prison said that he was ruined because of his connections. Nobody knows the truth."

Although she was still a young girl who had not yet reached adulthood, Xie Yunyu's face did not blush or show any shyness when these things were mentioned.

Sex education is widespread in the Empire, and Xie Yunyu has many aliases, so she naturally knows quite a bit about it.

Even when 711 was an elder, some people would try to curry favor with her by sending her people along.

Of course, when the young master Shen found out about this, he couldn't help but get jealous.

“GM44,” Fu Muqian still felt goodwill towards Xie Yunyu, whom he had once helped and who was now his friend’s partner. “I had someone keeping an eye on things in the southeast. As soon as Han San died, they checked his body and found that he had stopped taking GM44. GM44 is addictive, similar to a drug. Han San should have taken it on time, but he… got carried away and forgot. It’s quite dramatic.”

GM44!

This term is no longer unfamiliar to most people.

The more Shen Beian learned about this world, the less he felt about these things.

He knew that what he was doing was wrong.

Never

We should not lose our fear of life.

He was confused...

I increasingly feel like I'm not myself anymore, as if I've been assimilated by this world.

“An’an,” Gu Nan’an held Shen Bei’an’s hand, his phoenix eyes clear and pure, “You are not numb, you just don’t know what you should do to save this corrupt society.”

Her tone was as gentle as a willow leaf brushing against the wind, “We are all slowly changing, and what you have done, An’an, is even more remarkable.”

Gu Nanyan lowered his voice, but everyone present except Ye Lin was skilled in martial arts, and even Sheng Jingxuan had gone to the military camp with the Gu family members when he was young.

Therefore, everyone could hear what Gu Nanyan was saying.

But no one participated, since Shen Bei'an was an exception.

Shen Bei'an's eyes flickered slightly, knowing that Gu Nan'an was comforting him and that it was the truth.

"Because of Han San's matter, it has also aroused the dissatisfaction of other families." Shen Juanqing was serving Xie Yunyu food, using serving chopsticks.

Everyone prepared two pairs of chopsticks, one pair for picking up food and one pair for eating.

This is almost a given in Beijing.

"So the Medical Alliance is also facing some... troubles now." Shen Juanqing said with a smile, her eyebrows and eyes curving, which was quite beautiful.

"There are quite a few world families involved in the 'Embryo Project,' and Han San shouldn't be number two, right?" Lu Ming handed the freshly ordered tea to Ye Lin, who listened quietly without saying a word.

These things were too far removed from Ye Lin's life.

"No, it was just a failed experiment." Jiang Yuzhu peeled a crab for Sheng Jingxuan, picked up a wooden spoon from the wooden board next to her, scooped some water from the wooden bucket, washed her hands, and then wiped them with a handkerchief.

The entire movement was fluid and natural, without any hint of affectation.

Lu Ming was also serving food to Ye Lin, saying, "He's also a failed scapegoat."

Spoiling a child is like killing him.

The empire has no rule about raising daughters with wealth and sons with poverty.

In a sense, the so-called "raising a child in luxury" is nothing more than using minimal family resources to cultivate a marriage partner who can bring additional benefits to the family.

In the imperial families, if a young master is spoiled and pampered, he is usually either a marriage partner or a scapegoat to be pushed out in the future.

Of course, none of these things could happen to Master Shen.

The Shen family doesn't need a marriage alliance for one reason, Shen Juanqing has already grown up for another, and Gu Nanyan is there for a third reason.

In conclusion, Master Shen Wu became the most unique existence in the entire capital.

“If the Medical Alliance is in trouble, Ning Yao will be happy.” Ji Luqi picked up a piece of green vegetable with her chopsticks, her beautiful eyes curving into a smile.

Fu Muqian took a sip of warm wine. "I'm afraid she'll have to step in. Ning Zhang, that good-for-nothing, is far inferior to Ning Xiao in this regard."

Ning Xiao was incredibly capable back then. He excelled at both scientific research and networking, and he was adept at speaking to people in any way he wanted. He was a master of social maneuvering, and many families invested in him because of his silver tongue.

For some reason, the eldest son, who only knew how to do medical research, was the one he looked down upon... his illegitimate daughter, who took on the responsibility of leading the Ning family.

“Zou Shuang…Lorenzo…” Gu Nanyan mentioned these two names.

"Is Zou Shuang the one who plotted against Lu Shi?" Hua Yueli felt that the name sounded familiar.

Ji Luqi, standing to the side, laughed, "Erlang Shen, I'm not saying this to be mean, but your cousin is truly incredibly foolish. It feels like anyone could outsmart her. Even that low-class Han Er could completely outmaneuver her. It's only thanks to dealing with Master Lu and her at the beginning of this year that we managed to avoid making a fool of ourselves."

He really is a pampered young master.

Lu Ming shrugged. "It's just that there was one less clown at the family dinner. The Lu family has no shortage of young ladies."

Lu Ming was born into the eldest branch of the Lu family and had only one biological brother. The Lu family had seven branches, and the fifth branch, led by Master Lu the Fifth, had the most illegitimate children, but that doesn't mean the others didn't.

Lu Ming's parents are alright; they only have Lu Ming and his older brother as their children.

Other…

It can only be said that the Lu family is a large and prosperous family.

Continue feeding Ye Lin.

"Zou Shuang and Ning Yao..." The voice, as clear as jade porcelain, stopped there. Mei Lanting reached out and picked up a piece of pastry, a hint of interest in her eyes.

The words ended, and the meaning was exhausted.

Having been in this world for so long, Shen Beian naturally didn't feel anything special.

"Does Zou Shuang know that Ning Yao is going to destroy more than just the Ning family?" Gossip is something everyone loves to hear. Shen Bei'an's peach blossom eyes, filled with countless stars, stared straight at Mei Lanting.

In ancient times, the places with the most intelligence were undoubtedly teahouses and brothels.

As for this world, theaters are never short of gossip.
