With the Jiang family in decline, the Xu family's position in the capital has become increasingly secure. Moreover, several members of the Xu family are unmarried and have no partners, so they naturally receive the attention of various families. Among them, Xu Sheng is more popular than his son and two nephews.
Xu Sheng is older, but his looks, status, and temperament are more attractive to girls, especially girls in their early twenties, than the younger Xu Bai.
When Xu Sheng appeared at the Jiang family banquet with his family, all the unmarried young ladies present shyly flirted with him.
“Dad is quite charming,” Su Ning said with a smile, noticing the glances directed at Xu Sheng.
Xu Sheng coughed twice and looked at Su Xincheng beside him, "At your age, what charm do you have?"
"No, your age is completely different from others."
Xu Sheng has stunning good looks! And she's the kind of person who never ages!
Su Xincheng took over the conversation. It was her first time attending a banquet with Xu Sheng. As for her identity, no one needed to ask; just by looking at her face, which resembled Su Ning's, they could guess who she was.
"Really?" Xu Sheng turned his head and smiled at Su Xincheng.
His smile caused the girls next to him to scream repeatedly. A man who looks like him is definitely God's favorite.
Su Xincheng stared at the smile in Xu Sheng's eyes, paused for a moment, and did not answer.
Her relationship with Xu Sheng has improved, but that doesn't mean the past can be wiped clean.
She still hasn't figured out what to do with Xu Sheng!
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Gu," came Mrs. Jiang's voice. She walked up to them with Mo Ning and a smile.
"I am truly honored that you could come."
Mrs. Jiang was very happy; she was no longer the humble Mrs. Jiang in front of Old Mrs. Jiang.
She is in charge of the Jiang family, and she is the hostess of today's banquet.
"You're too kind," Xu Sheng replied politely.
He disliked the Jiang family, and even after Old Mrs. Jiang Yun's accident, he still disliked them.
The woman in front of him, Madam Jiang, had been trying to please him and the Xu family. He had guessed her intentions, and after seeing the photos Ningning had given him, he became even more wary of Madam Jiang.
After exchanging pleasantries, Xu Sheng went to the side to talk to the others, as did Gu Jingchen and Xu Bai, leaving Su Xincheng and her daughter Su Ning behind.
"Xincheng, I really didn't expect you to come too."
After Xu Sheng and the others left, Madam Jiang reached out and held Su Xincheng's hand. The two looked very familiar with each other. Su Xincheng felt very awkward. She and Mo Wan had not seen each other for many years, and their feelings had long faded.
Madam Jiang had invited her several times before, but she hadn't met with her. She didn't know where this enthusiasm came from.
"Hmm!" Su Xincheng smiled awkwardly.
"After so many years, I am truly gratified to see that you and Mr. Xu are doing so well now."
"Back then, if it weren't for Jiang Yun, you wouldn't have separated from Mr. Xu and wouldn't have suffered so much," Madam Jiang said sadly.
Her words sounded like they were spoken on behalf of Su Xincheng, and there wasn't a single fault with them.
Su Xincheng thought it sounded strange, but Su Ning felt that Madam Jiang was trying to sow discord between Su Xincheng and Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun is already in jail, what's the point of all this stirring up trouble! Did she do something wrong to Su Xincheng? She kept emphasizing it, making Su Xincheng resent Jiang Yun.
"Ningning." After chatting with Su Xincheng, Madam Jiang smiled and reached out to shake Su Ning's hand, but Su Ning didn't give her the chance. She put her hand down and took a step to the side.
