This time, it was Lisa who provoked the situation first, and if Li Muyan had tried to smooth things over, she would not have been in such a dilemma.
She had been very busy during that period, and her extra thoughts were on Lu Tingxiao. Li Muyan had never done anything out of line, so she had never noticed anything strange about Li Muyan, and she just thought of him as the son of her aunt's best friend.
It was not until just now, when Li Muyan looked at her, that she realized something was wrong.
And Alyssa's attitude and actions further confirmed her guess.
If Li Muyan had tried to smooth things over just now, she wouldn't have done this. She could just find an opportunity to talk to Li Muyan privately afterwards.
However, in the face of Alyssa's aggressiveness, Li Muyan chose to watch.
In this case, she could only solve this matter completely in her own way.
"You..." Lisa was so angry that she couldn't speak.
How could Alyssa be willing to accept this? Naturally, she had to get her revenge from somewhere else.
So, staring at Ning Xi's stunning outfit, he said, "Today is Mr. Lu's birthday, and the protagonists are Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu. You are stealing the show by dressing like this. Don't you have any basic etiquette as a guest?"
Ning Xi's outfit tonight was indeed too high-profile and attracted too much attention.
From the moment she appeared, many eyes had been secretly looking at her, especially the young girls at the scene, not to mention the noblemen in the circle.
After hearing Alyssa's words, everyone felt that it was inappropriate for Ning Xi to dress like this.
Usually, big stars would be invited to liven up the atmosphere at such occasions. Ning Xi was not the only one who came tonight. The other artists were very tactful and deliberately avoided Madam Lu's limelight and dressed very low-key. However, Ning Xi was the only one who wore an eye-catching bright red.
Bright red is a color that represents orthodoxy in China. Generally, on important occasions like this, only the host can wear it, and guests will try to avoid it.
Ning Xi's outfit was indeed not in accordance with etiquette.
Several young ladies gathered together and whispered, "Ning Xi's outfit is indeed a bit too high-profile. Isn't this a slap in Madam Lu's face?"
"This is inevitable. No matter how famous you are, you are just an actor after all. How can you understand so many rules?"
…
Just then, there was a burst of exclamations and noise at the door. It was the protagonist of the night, Lu Tingxiao, who had arrived.
Lu Tingxiao, who usually liked to wear dark colors, wore a bright maroon suit today, which made him look even more handsome.
Perhaps because today is his birthday and he is in a good mood, the man's face is not as cold and stern, but rather has a bit more worldly air.
"Boss Lu!"
"Happy birthday, Mr. Lu!"
"Happy birthday!"
Amidst the congratulations and admiring gazes, the man nodded slightly, briefly greeted the guests, and strode towards the venue with big strides.
The man's long legs did not stop, and under the focus of all the attention at the scene, he walked straight to the girl in a red dress, who was as dazzling as the sun.
The man stood in front of the girl, put his arms naturally around the girl's waist, leaned down slightly, and his thin lips kissed the girl's soft lips very cherishingly.
The girl's lips, which had been indifferent until now, slowly blossomed like a flower, and curved slightly, and she whispered, "Happy birthday."
At this moment, the man who was always as cold as an iceberg actually had a faint smile in his eyes: "Thank you, ma'am."
