Hua Xuan left the group chat.
Shi Xi asked curiously, "Why did you go and hug a hornet's nest?"
Hua Xuan, feeling like she was dying, said, "I'm going to change my clothes first."
Shi Xi: "...Tell me about it!"
"He lost his teeth back then, and we wouldn't let him eat candy, so he would poke a hornet's nest to try and get honey." Hua Wenying revealed Hua Xuan's embarrassing childhood stories without any reservations.
Hua Xuan turned and left, not wanting to talk to the two of them anymore.
Things that happened in my childhood.
Every time I think about it, it hurts so much.

Hua Xuan changed into her party attire and left with Shi Xi.
On the way, Hua Xuan said, "Auntie looks much happier today. Come back and visit often when you have time."
"I'm currently on set, I'll come back when I have time," Shi Xi said. "Has something happened to her lately?"
"I don't know, I've been very busy lately. I just noticed that my aunt seemed unhappy, but she didn't want to talk about it, and I didn't want to press her for details, so I thought I'd ask you to come and check on her," Hua Xuan said worriedly.
Shi Xi pondered and said, "Although she gets angry and troubled occasionally, she doesn't avoid it, so it shouldn't be a bad thing. I suppose she can handle it herself."
"It's good that it's not a bad thing." Hua Xuanhe said, "You're so observant; I could only tell that she had something on her mind."
When the party started, Hua Xuan asked, "Are you coming in with me, or are you waiting for Xie Yunzhou?"
Shi Xi was texting Xie Yunzhou, "He said he'll be here a little while longer, let's go in together."
Hua Xuanhe reminded him, "There are people from both the legitimate and illegitimate business circles here today, which is a good opportunity to introduce you to some useful people."
Shi Xi: "For example, Yan Linlang?"
“…Not everyone is as difficult to deal with as Yan Linlang. Let’s go.” Hua Xuan took Shi Xi’s arm and led her inside.
The charity gala was broadcast live and consisted of two parts: performances and donations. There was also time in between for attendees to move around freely.
Shi Xi saw Yan Linlang smiling from afar and asked softly, "Why is she so happy?"
Hua Xuanhe remained impassive, saying, "Tonight's party was organized by Yan Linlang's mother's side."
Shi Xi's almond-shaped eyes widened. "What do you mean?"
"It's nothing," Hua Xuanhe said, picking up a glass of champagne. "I just wanted to tell you something."
People flocked to Yan Linlang, all eager to curry favor with her.
Shi Xi instantly felt like she'd been sucked out. "You knew all that, and you still came?"
Hua Xuanhe said casually, "Everyone knows that everyone has to participate."
Shi Xi: Oh wow!
As Hua Xuan picked up the champagne, people came over to offer him a toast and exchange pleasantries.
Even Shi Xi had to smile politely.
After introducing Shi Xi to two or three "useful" friends, Hua Xuanhe said, "There's no need to get to know the others."
Shi Xi casually said, "Were those people just now all elders? Could you introduce me to your friends?"
Hua Xuanhe: "None of those people are married, that won't work."
Shi Xi: ?
No wonder the people she was introduced to earlier were all older, married men.
"Didn't you want me to break up with Xie Yunzhou? Why are you afraid to introduce me to your friends?" Shi Xi asked.
“They’re not as reliable as Xie Yunzhou,” Hua Xuan said expressionlessly.
If only there were a truly good man, someone I could entrust my life to.
He had already introduced her to Shi Xi.
Shi Xi was speechless.
Just then, Xie Yunzhou came in, and Shi Xi said, "He's here, I'm going to find him!"
Hua Xuan stopped Shi Xi and said sourly, "...Don't go over there, wait for him to come to you."
