elder sister?
Chen Zhi is actually Chen Mei's sister? !
At this time, not only the small circle of people who were on good terms with Shen Mei, but also many guests nearby who noticed the situation here, turned their heads and looked over after hearing the word "sister".
All eyes fell on Shen Zhi, with shock expressed without any concealment.
As the first new guests invited to attend Mr. Xie's birthday banquet, the Shen family attracted a lot of attention from the moment they appeared in the banquet hall.
After all, the Xie family, which is so prominent, and the Shen family, which is still at the bottom of the list, are worlds apart and have never had any interaction with each other.
This time, the Xie family invited the Shen family for the first time, which is intriguing.
Many people are pondering the deeper meaning behind the Xie family's move, and wondering whether the Xie family will cooperate with the Shen family in some area next.
Some people even joked that Mr. Xie wanted to take this opportunity to entertain celebrities from all walks of life, hoping to have a good look at his eldest grandson Xie Jinyan.
Everyone knows that Shen Hongyi has two daughters who are of marriageable age.
Although his eldest daughter has rarely appeared in public, his youngest daughter often accompanies him to various occasions. She is well-behaved and pretty, and is considered versatile and well-known in the socialite circle.
Therefore, many people speculated that the Xie family had ulterior motives in inviting the Shen family this time.
More people began to pay attention to Shen Mei.
However, no one expected that the female celebrity who had a scandal with Xie Jinyan would suddenly appear out of nowhere.
I never expected that...
This female star turned out to be the eldest Miss Shen from the Shen family who was rumored to be so ugly that she dared not show her face!
Xu Yangyang was standing next to Shen Mei. He was stunned for a long time before he frowned and turned to question Shen Mei in disbelief: "So it's not the same name at all. Your sister is... her?"
Several people at the scene were daughters of other families who had regular interactions with Shen Mei.
When everyone got together before, they joked that the female star Chen Zhi was Chen Mei's sister.
But Shen Mei never admitted it.
When they came back to their senses from their shock, they felt that they had been deceived, and looked at Shen Mei with some dissatisfaction and disgust in their eyes.
Shen Mei bit her lip.
In his heart, Jian Yu hated Chen Zhi to death!
She never expected it.
When Chen Zhi arrived here, he didn't stick to Xie Jinyan or Old Man Xie, but the first person he looked for was her.
There was no trace of embarrassment or timidity in that lazy look.
Although she had never attended such a celebrity-filled occasion before, she felt as comfortable as if she was strolling in her own garden.
As soon as he arrived, he immediately confirmed his identity.
This was completely different from what she and her mother had imagined!
Not only did he catch her off guard, he also slapped her in the face!
She had worked so hard to break into this circle, but Chen Zhi's frank admission made it seem as if her previous concealment was out of ulterior motives.
But now Shen Zhi was standing here, looking at her leisurely.
It's not right for her to explain, and it's not right for her not to explain.
The one who became the target of public criticism turned out to be herself.
"Chen Zhi is indeed my elder sister, but due to the nature of her work, I didn't mention it to everyone. I'm really sorry for hiding it from everyone for so long..."
As Shen Mei was talking, she saw the figures of Shen Hongyi and Jiang Yun from a distance, and hurriedly said, "I'll explain this to you later. The birthday banquet is about to start. My parents should be looking for us, so we'll go there first."
When Chen Zhi showed up just now, Jiang Yun was still secretly happy.
As expected, Chen Zhi had no doubt about the time of the banquet that she had told her.
Shen Zhi's lateness, on the one hand, can make the Xie family feel disrespected and have a grudge, on the other hand, it can deepen the bad image of Shen Zhi in everyone's mind, and on the third hand, it can make Shen Hongyi even more disgusted with this daughter who can only make a fool of herself.
However, this plan of killing three birds with one stone was completely thwarted the moment the door of the banquet hall was pushed open.
Jiang Yun could never have imagined it.
Chen Zhi would actually appear with Xie Jinyan at this moment that everyone is paying attention to!
In this way, everyone's attention is on the two of them, so how can they pay attention to anything else? !
"I didn't expect that Zhizhi actually has such a good relationship with the young master of the Xie family in private."
When Shen Hongyi first saw Shen Zhi arriving late, his face was almost darker than the bottom of a pot.
At this time, the cloudy sky turned to sunny, and the smiling face showed that he was obviously thinking about something.
Jiang Yun's eyes flashed and she pretended to sigh.
"Yes, Zhizhi has grown up, and now she doesn't tell us many things. I didn't know before that Zhizhi was still in contact with the Ji family. If I had known, I wouldn't have worried..."
Shen Hongyi only noticed Shen Zhi and Xie Jinyan just now, and his mind was full of how to build a good relationship between Shen Zhi and the Xie family, and he didn't pay attention to what happened later.
He frowned.
The voice instantly sank a few points.
"What nonsense are you talking about? We have cut off contact with... that family many years ago. They are far away in Haicheng. We can't see them even if we want to. How could they have any connection with Shen Zhi?"
Jiang Yun pretended to be surprised: "But just now I saw the Ji family members go up to talk to Zhizhi, and they were talking and laughing. I thought their relationship had eased."
Shen Hongyi frowned even deeper, and subconsciously looked for Shen Zhi's figure.
Shen Zhi didn't mean to look for Shen Mei just now. She actually wanted to find Shen Hongyi. After all, she had no idea about the Ji family. There were so many people in the banquet hall that she couldn't tell who was who.
It was just that during the search, she met Chen Mei and her good sisters who loved to gossip, so she went over to add fuel to the fire.
She did not forget her purpose of attending the birthday party last night.
Seeing Shen Hongyi and Jiang Yun from afar, Shen Zhi walked while thinking about how to ask about the Ji family's situation indirectly.
Unexpectedly, she had just stood in front of the two of them.
Shen Hongyi narrowed his eyes and looked at her inquiringly——
