Xu Yanshu noticed the fleeting tension on the other person's face, and his eyes subtly deepened. It seemed there really was a problem.
"Just like you said, I also bear some responsibility for this, so it is only right that I find out what really happened."
Seeing that the other party seemed determined to investigate, Mu Yichen felt inexplicably annoyed. He abruptly stood up from his seat and said irritably,
"Then go ahead and investigate. Let's see what tricks you can pull!"
After saying that, Mu Yichen turned and walked out indignantly.
So, is this considered being enraged out of embarrassment?
Xu Yanshu seemed to be deep in thought. Originally, it was just a preliminary guess, but judging from Mu Yichen's current reaction, it seemed that there really was some unknown secret.
Coming to her senses, Xu Yanshu dialed Jiang Zhengyu's number.
"Jungwoo, are you free today? I have something very important I'd like to discuss with you in person."
——
"Madam, the Zhou family has sent an invitation, saying it's for Mrs. Zhou's fiftieth birthday."
Looking at the invitation handed over by the butler, Qin Yao was slightly taken aback. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the Zhou family hadn't held any events for a long time.
Before this, she had heard that she saw Shen Wei undergoing chemotherapy in the hospital, so now she has fully recovered?
Suppressing her doubts for the moment, Qin Yao nodded slightly, "I understand. Please tell Madam Zhou that I will definitely be there on time."
You can't hit someone who's smiling. Since the invitations have been sent, they should at least go and go through the motions.
If they bring up other things at that time, Qin Yao's expression suddenly turned cold as she pondered, then she shouldn't blame her for not giving them face.
Ouyang Ming walked out alone. Just as he was about to say something, he noticed the invitation on the table. After picking it up and looking at it, his expression immediately turned cold.
"This Zhou Shengyu is really shameless. I made myself very clear before, but he still dares to send an invitation."
Sensing the other party's resentment, Qin Yao couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time, "If he invited most of the people in the industry, but didn't send us any invitations, how would you feel?"
this……
Ouyang Sheng was stunned by the question. If that were really the case, he felt even more uncomfortable.
"Alright, you don't need to worry about this anymore," Qin Yao waved her hand dismissively, sealing the matter. "I'll just go through the motions myself."
At the same time, Shen Wei finally breathed a sigh of relief after receiving a reply.
“If you ask me, you shouldn’t have invited the Zhou family. They’re clearly looking down on Yan Shu,” Zhou Shengyu rarely voiced his objection, his expression somewhat displeased. “And why do you have to keep clinging to them like this?”
If it weren't for the child, he wouldn't have humbled himself to beg for a chance. Who knew that Ouyang Ming wouldn't give him any face at all?
Seeing her lover acting so awkwardly, like a child, Shen Wei couldn't help but chuckle to herself. After a sigh, she earnestly advised him...
"You've invited so many people this time. If you're the only one who's left out, isn't that clearly a sign that you're going to ruin things with them?"
"Besides, Yan Shu still likes Sheng Yi after all. Since the child is unwilling to give up, we should help to ease the tension."
It is rare that Yan Shu was willing to start a new relationship after experiencing such a marriage, so his parents should do everything they could to support him.
She had met Qin Shengyi a few times before. She was gentle and obedient, and such a girl was indeed very suitable for Yan Shu.
Shen Wei had thought it through clearly. As long as her son could be happy, she didn't care about saving face.
That makes sense, but when he thinks of Ouyang Ming's arrogant attitude back then, he...
Zhou Shengyu hesitated for a moment, and in the end, he didn't say anything more. In fact, he could understand his lover's desire to do something for the child.
"Mom, do you have any extra invitations? I'd like to invite a friend over." Zhou Zehao came downstairs alone, saw the guest list on the table, and made the request.
Zhou Shengyu frowned in confusion, "If you're inviting Mu Yichen, then forget it. We've never had a relationship with the Mu family..."
"It's not Mu Yichen. As for who it is, you'll find out when the time comes." Zhou Zehao deliberately smiled mysteriously.
Could it be his girlfriend?
Shen Wei couldn't help but guess, her eyes brightening noticeably. She immediately nodded excitedly, "Okay, I understand, I'll give it to you later!"
...
"If that's really the case, then the Mu family should prepare for their demise!" Mu Yichen's face was gloomy, and a ruthless glint flashed in his eyes as he spoke.
They had long suspected that there was something fishy about Sheng Yi's kidnapping, but they never expected that it might actually be a staged act by Mu Yichen. If that were the case, it would be utterly disgusting.
Shengyi's aunt and uncle have always been protective of her, especially after what happened in junior high. Since she herself still finds it hard to accept, they are even more likely to let the mastermind behind it all go.
Therefore, it might actually be a good thing for Sheng Yi to go abroad temporarily.
Xu Yanshu nodded thoughtfully, his thin lips pressed down into a straight line.
If that's really the case, then Zhou Zehao must have been involved as well. Otherwise, given Mu Yichen's current intelligence, he certainly wouldn't have caused such a big incident.
“Yan Shu, I need to remind you of something: if it turns out that Zhou Zehao was also involved, my aunt might take her anger out on the entire Zhou family.”
