Mr. Chen arrived in a wheelchair.
Now, their main topic of discussion has shifted to Di Chenxiao: "Master Chen's leg is injured? Who dares to hurt Master Chen?"
"That's right. The person who injured Master Chen is probably no longer in the capital."
"I just don't know which deity has the ability to injure Master Chen."
"Aren't you curious about the relationship between Master Chen and Miss Shi? Will Master Chen's appearance at Miss Shi's birthday party reveal their relationship?"
"Master Chen has never made their relationship public. Could it be that Master Chen simply doesn't care about Miss Shi?"
"It's hard to say. In any case, let's avoid discussing Master Chen's affairs."
...
Shi Xi was not paying attention to what everyone was saying in the banquet hall; her attention was now entirely focused on Di Chenxiao.
Before Shi Xi arrived, Shi Yue, who was praised by everyone, had a look of jealousy in her eyes. Wherever Shi Xi was, others didn't notice her.
Shi Han pulled Shi Xi upstairs, saying, "Xiao Xi, let's go upstairs first. The banquet will start soon."
"Okay, by the way, Second Brother, hasn't Brother Qin arrived yet?"
Shi Xi glanced around and only spotted one of Han Yingdi's familiar friends.
"Qin Xue, Zhou Jin, Han Yan, Shen Sheng, Di Shi and Thirteen, they are all on the second floor. They arrived a long time ago, but like you, they didn't want to do too much socializing, so they went upstairs to wait for you."
Shi Hao went to greet the guests. Han Yingdi didn't like interpersonal communication in the past either. In the entertainment industry, there was Shen Sheng, and in the Han family, there was his older brother. He could be lazy whenever he wanted.
However, things are different now. After a series of events, even with the help of the Shi family, the Qin family, and Di Chenxiao, the Han family has managed to maintain its position in the capital, but it is ultimately not as powerful as before.
"Let's go upstairs quickly, I'll go chat with them." Shi Xi didn't care what Di Chenxiao was like. Anyway, no one in the Shi family dared to make things difficult for him, so she didn't need to watch him all the time.
Before she even entered the house, she heard Qin Xue's voice from inside, "I have one more card, you guys decide how to play it."
Han Yan: "I still have a hand to play, it seems I can't escape this situation. Whether I can beat Brother Chen depends on whether Zhou Jin will let Qin Xue win."
Zhou Jin: "I don't have any strong cards in my hand, so I can't suppress Brother Chen's cards and it's not easy for me to let him win."
Shi Xi pushed open the door and entered; the six people inside seemed quite at ease.
Zhou Jin and Shen Sheng are opposite each other, as are Qin Xue and Han Yan. The four of them are playing cards.
Di Shi, Shisan, and a man with an effeminate appearance watched the four of them play cards quietly.
“You guys are having a great time. I was worried you'd be bored if I got back late. We just need one more person to fill two tables.”
Shi Xi smiled and walked towards the group, then sat down on the sofa.
Qin Xue put down a card in her hand, looked at Shi Xi with a lecherous gaze, and said, "Today, a fairy has descended to earth. We mortals are truly fortunate to be able to see the fairy's true face."
Shi Xi moved closer to Qin Xue and sat down. "Thank you for the compliment, Brother Qin."
Everyone present praised Shi Xi one by one before she finally had a chance to speak.
"Who is this?" she asked, looking at the unfamiliar, effeminate man.
No matter what move Zhou Jin made, Qin Xue couldn't counter it. "He's my second brother, Qin Feng."
"Second cousin, hello. I'm Shi Xi."
Qin Feng smiled faintly, his eyes like those of a venomous snake, staring at people and sending chills down their spines. "Miss Shi, hello. I've long heard of your great name."
