"Grandma Shen doesn't like the hustle and bustle, right? She didn't even plan to hold a birthday party before, so why did she invite so many reporters and celebrities?" Ning Yimeng said to herself.
"Perhaps this wasn't Mrs. Shen's idea. Perhaps it was someone else in the Shen family who did it. Perhaps they wanted to give Mrs. Shen a surprise, or perhaps it was for some other reason."
"Yes, I remember now. Grandma Shen handed over most of the birthday banquet matters to Aunt Qin. Maybe Aunt Qin wanted to give Grandma Shen a surprise, but will Grandma Shen really like it..."
"Then only Mrs. Shen herself knows."
"You make sense... huh?" Ning Yimeng chatted for a long time before suddenly realizing that she had been talking to someone.
When I turned around suddenly, I met a pair of sapphire eyes as blue as the deep sea, and my heart started pounding.
"You, who are you? How come you came over without making any sound?"
The boy smiled helplessly: "We just talked for so long, how come there is no sound?"
Ning Yimeng choked and then looked at the young man in front of her again.
He looks no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, with a tall figure, probably of mixed European and American descent. Apart from his sapphire eyes, his other facial features are much deeper than those of Chinese people. He looks at everyone with affection, and there is a hint of mystery in his affection.
This was the most handsome man she had ever seen, except for her uncle!
"Hello, my name is Luo Yubai. Nice to meet you, beautiful lady." Luo Yubai took Ning Yimeng's hand and gently kissed the back of the girl's hand.
Ning Yimeng's face turned red instantly. This was the first time someone kissed her!
He stuttered subconsciously when speaking.
"My name is Ning Yimeng, hello!"
Luo Yubai seemed a little surprised: "It turned out to be Miss Sun from the Pei family!"
Ning Yimeng was also a little surprised: "Do you know me?"
Luo Yubai smiled very gentlemanly: "If you want to gain a foothold in the Chinese business circle, how can you not understand the Pei family? And how can you not understand Miss Ning, not to mention that you are such a lovely lady."
The same word "cute" sounds extremely harsh when it comes from the stylist's mouth, but it becomes extremely beautiful when it comes from the mouth of the young man in front of him.
He said he wanted to gain a firm foothold in China's business circle. Ning Yimeng was suddenly stunned and looked at Luo Yubai in surprise: "You, you can't be from the Luo family, one of the three giants on Wall Street whose family developed in Country M?"
Luo Yubai's smile widened: "I didn't expect Miss Ning also knew about the Luo family. What an honor!"
Ning Yimeng covered her mouth.
Everyone in the Chinese business community is now speculating about what kind of reshuffle the Luo family’s return will bring to China, and what impact it will have on the Pei family, once China’s top business giant.
Tickets for the charity auction that the old man of the Luo family is about to hold are even harder to come by.
And Luo Yubai, the eldest son of the Luo family, has apparently become a rising star in the celebrity circle!
Looking at Luo Yubai again, the fire that was about to ignite in Ning Yimeng's heart was instantly extinguished.
There is an insurmountable gap between her identity and the boy in front of her.
"Mr. Luo, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." Ning Yimeng lowered her head and passed by Luo Yubai.
Luo Yubai chased after her and asked, "Ms. Ning, why don't you go through the main entrance?"
Ning Yimeng looked back at the stars. She was too ordinary-looking and had brought shame upon herself in the past. She still had self-awareness.
Seeing Ning Yimeng remained silent, Luo Yubai didn't press the issue, but winked playfully, "I like quietness, and I don't want to walk the red carpet. I wonder if Miss Ning would be willing to take me through the back door?"
Ning Yimeng's heart began beating uncontrollably again. She blushed and nodded with a smile: "Okay, come with me."
Everyone in the Shen family's old house knew Ning Yimeng, and they welcomed the two of them in through the back door with a smile.
Ning Yimeng was surprised to find that many people had already come to the Shen family's old house before noon, including many unfamiliar faces. Everyone was toasting and chatting happily.
The more she looked at it, the more she felt that this was not a birthday party, but more like a business reception.
When she looked back, Luo Yubai was gone. Ning Yimeng felt a little disappointed. It was all because there were too many people around and she actually got lost.
I made a silent wish in my heart, hoping that there would be a chance to see you again.
Ning Yimeng walked around but couldn't find Shen Suyun. She called but still no one answered. Finally, she had to find a servant of the Shen family to inquire about the situation.
"I wonder where Su Yun is. Can you take me to see her?"
The Shen family servant smiled and said, "The young lady and her family haven't arrived yet. It seems that the time is almost up. Miss Ning, why don't you go to the guest bedroom to have a cup of tea and rest for a while?"
Ning Yimeng shook her head, her eyes still looking around. She was looking for Shen Suyun and Luo Yubai.

And at this moment, the Shen family’s mountaintop villa.
Shen Suyun was furious in her bedroom, knocking all the cosmetics to the floor.
"I made an appointment to do my makeup, but now I can't come. What do they think of me, Shen Suyun? Do they still want to survive in Beijing?"
Shen's nanny, Wu Ma, knelt on the ground to pack up her things while comforting Shen Suyun: "Don't be angry, Miss. It's not good for your health to be angry. We have already called other makeup artists. Our Miss is naturally beautiful. Even without makeup, she is still several blocks away from others!"
Shen Suyun gritted her teeth and said, "Of course I know this, but I'm just angry. How can this eleventh-ranked makeup artist be as good as the top ten? I get angry just thinking about it!"
The makeup artist who had just been called in secretly rolled his eyes.
Everyone in their circle knew that last night, Mrs. Pei had paid a high price to invite the top ten makeup artists to the Pei family. The appearance fee alone was several times higher than what Shen Suyun had paid.
If he had been invited, he would never have come here to suffer.
Moreover, for Shen Suyun's blemish-prone face, it would take most of the day to cover up the blemishes.
If he wasn't worried about offending the Shen family, he wouldn't want to earn the 10,000 yuan makeup fee at all. Wouldn't it be nice to stay at home with a watermelon and enjoy the air conditioning?
"What are you still standing there for? Did I pay you ten thousand yuan just to let you enjoy the air conditioning in my room?" Shen Suyun shot him a resentful look.
The makeup artist gave a professional fake smile: "I'm worried that Miss Shen's temper hasn't died down yet, and the concealer will wrinkle, which will not look good."
“You!” Shen Suyun stepped forward angrily, but was stopped by Wu Ma.
"Miss, no other makeup artist can compare to this one, and we're running out of time. Please calm down."
Shen Suyun snorted coldly: "If you don't cover up this on your face, I will make sure you can no longer survive in this circle."
A trace of disgust flashed in the makeup artist's eyes, but she smiled: "Don't worry, Miss Shen, I will definitely satisfy you."
As she spoke, she opened her makeup box and quietly took out a box of aloe vera gel that had been expired for who knows how long.
