Lan Xi's 25th birthday was celebrated in a grand manner, and Lan Xiangfu took this opportunity to formally hand over the position of head of the Lan family to her.
On that day, all the wealthy families in Shanghai received invitations, and the dinner started at 7 pm.
Lan Xi was forced to sit in front of the dressing table by the designer early in the morning to apply makeup.
At 10 o'clock in the morning, all the members of the Lan family stood in the ancestral hall, burning incense to inform the ancestors that the younger generation Lan Xi would take over the position of the head of the Lan family. At 12 o'clock in the afternoon, a family dinner was held in the restaurant in the courtyard. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Lan Xi returned to his home, changed his clothes and rushed to the banquet hall.
As early as a year ago, Lan Xiangfu started preparing for this matter. After Lan Xi's resistance was ineffective, the construction of the banquet hall officially began.
"Miss, you should take a rest. It's still early to leave the banquet!"
Zhu Lingling placed the fruit prepared by Bai Yun in front of Lan Xi, then opened the thermos beside her and poured her a bowl of soup. Knowing that she couldn't eat much today, she simply prepared some food for her to fill her stomach.
Lan Xi leaned back tiredly. She felt like she was falling apart today and had no interest in the soup that Zhu Lingling handed her.
"Aunt Bai prepared a vegetarian soup that won't be fishy. She asked me to watch you and make sure you drink it!" Zhu Lingling continued to pass it over, and opened her mouth to use Bai Yun to press her down.
Glancing at her, Lan Xi sneered, "You've been getting more and more daring in the past two years!"
While saying this, she still reached out and took the bowl from Zhu Lingling's hand. She knew Bai Yun's cooking skills, and even the meat soup would not taste fishy. She just simply didn't want to drink it.
Zhu Lingling was still humble and submissive, but the uneasiness and inferiority she had three years ago had been replaced by calmness and sharpness. However, in front of Lan Xi, she seemed to be accustomed to this and was respectful and humble.
Picking a grape and putting it in her mouth, Lan Xi asked her, "When will Grandpa come over?"
"The old man informed us it's 6 o'clock! And..." Zhu Lingling looked down at her watch: "Half an hour!"
"Okay, I'll take a nap, you..."
Lan Xi was just giving Zhu Lingling instructions when the door to the lounge opened and the little girl's high-pitched, excited voice rang out, "Grandpa is so generous! This place is so magnificently decorated. Wow..."
Little Loli, Qin Zhong, Qin Xiangnan, and Jiang Xing rushed in from the door and rushed straight to Lan Xi.
Seeing this scene, Lan Xi knew that she couldn't sleep anymore. Zhu Lingling beside her put down the fruit, stood up, and went out to check the personnel and equipment.
"My dad showed me the report yesterday!" Qin Zhong came up and picked up the fruit and put it in his mouth, while giving Lan Xi a thumbs up.
Cheng Chiyan is now at the peak of his career in the entertainment industry, with a fan base of over 10 million and a very high level of stickiness. In the past two years, he has been endorsing Lan's clothing brand.
They are jokingly called the most loyal CP in the entertainment industry by netizens!
Under Lan Xi's control, there has been no brand collapse incident, but Cheng Chiyan, a non-actor in the domestic entertainment industry, has been highly praised.
Lan Xi leaned listlessly on the sofa, not looking too well. The little girl next to her noticed this and came around behind her to massage her shoulders: "Grandpa Lan is too much of a pushover, so anxious to hand over the position of head of the family to someone else to retire!"
"Huh~" Lan Xi let out a long sigh as her tense shoulders relaxed. "The old man is getting old. He's been so upset at the hands of his spoiled son for the past two years. It's time for him to enjoy some peace and happiness!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone shut up. They didn't dare to criticize the old man!
"When did you break up with Cheng Chiyan? That's too sudden!" Qin Xiangnan's sudden gossip made everyone look at her. In fact, everyone was very curious.
After hearing this, Lan Xi was in a daze for a moment. At this time last year, Cheng Chiyan seemed very busy, often on business trips and often coming back very late.
Lan Xi initially slept with the quilt hugged, until the smell of Cheng Chiyan in the master bedroom became less and less, until gossip about Cheng Chiyan was exposed on the Internet...
The scandal with the new rising star spread everywhere, and netizens began to criticize Cheng Chiyan. After all, many people knew about his relationship with Lan Xi. After this incident, everyone thought that he relied on his financial backers to get to the top and was ungrateful.
That night, Lan Xi did not listen to Cheng Chiyan's explanation, nor did she let him in, because she found that it was ineffective.
Cheng Chiyan's treatment was no longer effective, and she couldn't sleep again. She asked Zhu Lingling to remove all the things he had used and disinfect the house thoroughly.
Bai Yun pulled her to the villa, and decorated her in the second bedroom in a beautiful princess style, with pink sheets, light blue walls, milky white carpets, and lace gauze curtains.
Lan Xi stared at it in amazement, and suddenly she couldn't do it anymore. This...
Bai Yun pushed her in directly, leaving a sentence: "Why are you asking so many questions! Just stay here! Don't cause trouble!"
The door behind her closed, and Lan Xi looked around a little helplessly, unable to find a place to step. Fortunately, the bathroom was right at her feet. She pushed the door open and walked in. Everything was available inside.
It feels like I knew Lan Xi would come to stay here!
After slowly cleaning up, Lan Xi walked out of the bedroom. Bai Yun brought out a bowl of pear juice from the kitchen and gave it to her: "Drink it and go to bed early! Don't wander around!"
Lan Xi obediently walked to the sofa with the pear juice and sat down. There was a sound at the door. Bai Xingtang was back!
At such a young age, he started his postgraduate studies in September. He gradually became adept at his work at Lan's Law Firm, and his expression became more calm and reserved.
"Sister!" Seeing Lan Xi, Bai Xingtang raised his eyebrows in surprise. He looked at her swinging her legs on the sofa in cat pajamas as if he was looking at a ghost. Then he reacted and called her obediently.
Lan Xi drank the sweet and refreshing pear juice attentively, and raised her left hand slightly as a greeting.
