Chapter 72 The College Entrance Banquet Scandal! Don't Touch Me!
Song Weiwei turned and left, rushing out of the man's apartment. But she thought about the rumors that the military wives had been spreading these past few days, about that girl named Xia Mian... it seemed that Fu Yanshen cared about her quite a bit.
Xia Mian... It seems necessary to have my father and brother find out more about this girl.
Fu Yanshen opened the apartment door and glanced down casually, only to see a familiar button on the door. If he remembered correctly, it seemed to be the button on Xia Mian's shirt.
The man bent down, picked up the button, and put it away.
When did her buttons come off?
...
Xia Mian, Zhao Baoqi, and the other three returned to the Fu family home. As soon as they entered, Old Madam Fu came to greet them.
"My little darlings! What's wrong with you all? Why are you going to the military camp to bother your eldest brother?"
She feigned annoyance, "Your older brother is already incredibly busy, and you still want to cause trouble."
Actually, she longed for several children terribly.
"Hurry up, everyone go take a shower, change your clothes, and then come down for dinner. I've specially asked the kitchen to make some dishes that you all like."
"Grandma...did you miss me?" Zhao Baoqi clung to Madam Fu's arm, acting coquettishly. The old lady glared at her, "Why would I miss you? You little rascal!"
"Hmph! Fine, don't miss me then!" Zhao Baoqi made a face and dragged his suitcase to Hexiang Courtyard.
Xia Mian wasn't in a good mood, but she still hugged Madam Fu and said, "Grandma, I'll come down later."
The image of Song Weiwei rushing towards Fu Yanshen keeps flashing through my mind.
Will he also pull Song Weiwei into his arms and kiss her? Like he would kiss her?
Her mind was in turmoil; the thought of this possibility made her feel a tightness and suffocation in her chest, almost making it hard to breathe.
I feel like I'm both stupid and foolish.
A man's words are deceitful!
Fortunately, she didn't fall too deeply in love. Thank goodness... Her slight attraction was immediately dashed by Song Weiwei.
After taking a shower to change her mood and changing into clean pajamas, Xia Mian finally went downstairs.
Madam Fu was discussing the graduation banquet with Zhao Baoqi.
"At that time, in the hotel lobby, including at the entrance on the first floor, there will be a large screen displaying your four photos, your scores, and your admission notices."
Zhao Baoqi twitched his lips. "Grandma, aren't you exaggerating? Don't be like that, okay? It's so old-fashioned..."
"It's both corny and high-energy, with a kind of corny, high-energy vibe like you love listening to DJ music." Fu Yanhao walked out, wiping his short, spiky hair, looking very youthful.
He rushed over without even drying his hair, eager to give his opinion.
"If none of you like it, what about you, Mianmian? Don't you like it either?" Old Madam Fu's gaze fell on Xia Mian. "Is it really that unfashionable?"
Madam Fu looked at the children with disappointment, somewhat doubting her own taste and arrangements. "Is it really not good?"
All four children nodded in unison.
"Alright then... but I really want everyone to see how outstanding the children of our Fu family are!"
Madam Fu reluctantly gave up the idea.
"How about changing it to a banner? A poster?"
"Grandma, please forgive us! It's just a normal graduation banquet, relatives and friends can sit together and have a good time, let's not make this complicated." Fu Yanhao felt extremely embarrassed. If they really did what his grandma said, his classmates would laugh at him for a whole year!
"Alright, alright, I'll listen to you all, keep it low-key." Old Madam Fu shook her head, it seemed she really couldn't keep up with the children's way of thinking.
On the day of the graduation banquet, Madam Fu hurriedly went to the hotel with Fu Yubai and his wife early in the morning.
The stylists did Xia Mian's makeup and hair, and the twin brothers also had their own stylists.
The two faces, which were originally exactly the same, now look handsome and dashing in suits and ties, enough to charm countless young girls.
The four teenagers got into the Maybach and drove towards the hotel.
Meanwhile, in the lobby of the Royal Moon Hotel...
A huge poster featuring Lu Lian'er's full-body portrait was prominently displayed at the entrance of the lobby.
Her personal profile, the awards she has won, and her experience of being admitted to Mingcheng University through a special program are all clearly written down.
Xia Mian pouted, "Anyone who didn't know better would think she's already dead! That's why they're showing her life story like this."
"That makes sense, haha!" Zhao Baoqi thought Xia Mian's words were really sharp. "I just didn't expect that Lu Lian'er's graduation banquet would also be held at the Huangyue Hotel. Seeing her makes me feel really unlucky."
"Never mind, Grandma didn't know we'd run into the Xia family and Lu Lian'er." Xia Mian pulled Zhao Baoqi into the elevator. "They're in the side hall on the second floor, and we're in the grand banquet hall on the sixth floor. We won't meet."
The elevator doors were about to close slowly when a hand suddenly reached out to stop them, and the elevator doors immediately reopened upon sensing this.
Lu Lian'er stepped into the elevator wearing a haute couture gown and high heels.
Zhao Baoqi rolled his eyes speechlessly and muttered under his breath, "Speak of the devil, and he appears."
Xia Qingfeng followed Lu Lian'er into the elevator. When he saw Xia Mian, he frowned. "I knew you would come to Lian'er's college entrance celebration."
"How could you possibly miss such a good opportunity to compete for the emperor's favor with Lian'er?"
Lu Lian'er took Xia Qingfeng's arm and said, "Oh dear, Third Brother, today is a special day for my sister and me to celebrate our graduation. Please don't say such unpleasant things!"
The elevator stopped on the second floor. Lu Lian'er and Xia Qingfeng walked out, but then realized that Xia Mian hadn't followed. Lu Lian'er stopped the elevator doors from closing, looking at Xia Mian with a puzzled expression. "Sister, why aren't you coming down?"
"Why should I come down? My graduation celebration isn't on the second floor." Xia Mian sneered. "If we had known you were having your celebration here too, we wouldn't have chosen this location!"
"Sister, what are you saying? Do you expect our brothers to throw you a separate banquet in another hall? Sister... please don't be so willful, okay?" Lu Lian'er said, appearing as a reasonable and understanding younger sister. "We agreed before that we would host it together as sisters!"
"Xia Mian, come down here! Do I have to ask you to come down?" Xia Qingfeng had lost his patience and looked annoyed.
"If it weren't for Lian'er pleading for you, given how you sided with outsiders at the police station the other day, the three of us brothers would never have let you and Lian'er hold a graduation banquet together!"
The thought of Xia Mian not helping her three older brothers that day, but instead feeling sorry for the violent twins, made Xia Qingfeng's chest ache with anger.
"Who wants to have a graduation banquet with a green tea like Lu Lian'er? You wish! Don't touch our Mianmian!" Zhao Baoqi spat and slammed the elevator door shut.
