"It seems like the whole Zhuang family has arrived!"
"Really? When did the relationship between the Zhuang family and the Lu family become so good? The whole Zhuang family came to Lu Tingxiao's birthday?"
Everyone was a little suspicious, "It's a bit strange. One of these two families is in the military and the other is in business. They are just nodding acquaintances on weekdays, right? Especially Mr. Zhuang, he never interacts too closely with anyone, especially businessmen, let alone coming to attend a birthday party of a junior in person?"
"But who knows. The Lu family is now feared by the higher-ups, and the Zhuang family is probably no exception!"
"That's true..."
On the other side, Zhuang Keer spotted Ning Xi, the most dazzling person in the crowd, and immediately ran towards her, greeting her very intimately, "Xiao Xi!"
"Ke'er, you're here too!" Ning Xi immediately smiled sincerely when she saw Zhuang Ke'er.
Zhuang Rongguang, who looked very heroic in his military uniform, rushed to Ning Xi like a monkey, with an expression as if he was offering a treasure, "Brother Xi! Look quickly! Let me ask you, do I look handsome in this outfit? Do I look handsome?"
Ning Xi looked at the boy who was becoming more and more energetic, her eyes full of admiration, and praised him generously, "He is indeed much more handsome now!"
When Zhuang Rongguang heard what he wanted to hear, he was immediately delighted.
Meng Linlang glared at her son helplessly, then looked at Ning Xi's outfit, her eyes brightened, "Xi girl, this outfit is really beautiful! You, kid, are usually too plain. At your age, you should wear more bright colors like this. Don't let me wear them when I'm my age and I can't even wear them when I want to!"
Seeing this scene not far away, the expressions of those rich girls suddenly became complicated.
"Why are all the people in the banker's family so close to Ning Xi?"
"Do I even need to ask? She must be benefiting from the Lu family! After all, she is now the eldest lady of the Lu family, the mistress of the house!"
"Oh my god! What kind of luck is this! She really is like a phoenix that has flown to a tree and turned into a phoenix! This is so unfair. Among those present here, whose family background is much better than hers? What on earth is the Lu family thinking? They let someone of such wealth in. If they don't think about themselves, they should think about the genes and bloodline of their descendants, right?"
"This Ning Xi is not worthy of Brother Lu at all!"
…
A group of rich young ladies felt even more unbalanced when they saw how familiar Ning Xi was with the banker's people. They gathered in groups of three or five and whispered to each other.
Only Li Muyan, who knew the inside story, had a bitter taste in his mouth.
How could Zhuang Zongren not hear these voices? His expression changed almost instantly. The old man had a bad temper to begin with, and what was more, the matter involved his most beloved granddaughter, so he angrily said with a cold brow on the spot, "Who said that my Xiaoxi is not worthy of the stinky boy from the Lu family!!!"
The old and deep voice immediately reached everyone's ears.
The moment Zhuang Zongren's slightly angry voice rang out, the entire venue was suddenly shrouded in a sense of oppression. Those daughters of noble families who were muttering to themselves suddenly dared not breathe, and all looked at each other in surprise.
What did General Zhuang say just now
My Xiaoxi...
At this time, Yan Ruyi came forward with a smile on her face to smooth things over, "Grandpa, look at what you said, Xiaoxi is your granddaughter. Even Master Xuan Jing said that Xiaoxi is a great blessing for her husband and family. It is a blessing for our Lu family in our previous life to marry a daughter-in-law like Xiaoxi!"
