Wang Man's birthday party was held in a club with a special party room.

Cao Yang and Xia Rou came neither too late nor too early, just right.

Seeing Cao Yang, Wang Man greeted him with a smile: "Here we are."

Looking at Xiarou again, she said, "Xiaorou is here too."

"Sister Wang Man, happy birthday." Xia Rou behaved well and presented Cao Yang with the birthday present she had prepared.

"Thank you." Wang Man took it and smiled kindly, "Have fun."

Even though he already knew that she was not Cao Xiong's child, Wang Man's attitude towards her was still much better than in his previous life. Xia Rou was a little flattered.

In Cao Yang's eyes, he felt that she really liked Wang Man. Pat her on the head: "There are your friends over there."

Although it is said to be a "gathering of young people", in fact, ages are still divided into levels. Xia Rou went to her group of people.

Sit over, say hello to acquaintances, and turn to look. Cao Yang was still standing there talking to Wang Man.

He had a cigarette in his hand and a smile on his face.

The body is slender and tall, with tough lines and full of masculinity.

Who can compare to him! her big brother! If Wang Man doesn't choose him, who else can he choose! A couple!

In Xia Rou's eyes, she couldn't help showing a satisfied smile.

There were more and more people, the atmosphere gradually heated up, and people came one after another.

Xia Rou was chatting with someone when she heard someone call her "Xiao Rou". Looking back, Hu Chen came. Whether she likes Hu Chen or not, her circle is so small, she will definitely meet up wherever she goes.

She smiled and said hello: "Brother Hu Chen."

Hu Chen approached her to talk, and turned around, revealing the handsome young man who was following him.

Xia Rou's face suddenly changed.

The young man showed a look of astonishment in his eyes, and asked Hu Chen: "Brother Chen, is this...?"

"Oh, Xiao Rou, this is Liang Zihuan." Hu Chen patted Xia Rou on the shoulder and said to Liang Zihuan, "This is Xia Rou from the Cao family."

When "Cao family" is mentioned on this occasion, there is only one Cao family.

This introduction was a bit strange, but Liang Zihuan was not a winkful person, so he didn't bother to ask. He said to Xia Rou with a smile on his face, "Hello, Xia Rou."

Liang Zihuan's face is quite handsome, his mouth is also sweet, and he is quite likable among all the daughters.

But the so-called daughter refers to the family background of these girls, not their appearance. In fact, there are quite a few daughters who were born... very bad...

As a man, Liang Zihuan naturally and instinctively likes beautiful girls.

This Xia Rou looks young, but she is already an out-and-out beauty. Looking around in this private room, in terms of appearance alone, the most eye-catching ones are Wang Man and her.

Wang Man is the daughter of daughters and the lady of ladies. Combining family background, ability and beauty, he is arrogant, and most people don't look down on him. Liang Zihuan still had self-knowledge, he had to rely on Hu Chen to bring her in even to her birthday party, and he didn't dare to think about it.

He greeted Xia Rou with a smile.

I have to say, his face is quite deceptive. The girls who were with Xia Rou all looked at him a few more times.

In the previous life, Xia Rou would choose him and accept him, and it was inseparable from this face.

Xia Rou responded to him coldly.

Liang Zihuan didn't feel it yet, but Hu Chen felt it.

In Cao Yang's words, the two brothers Hu Chen and Hu Xuan are both human beings. Xia Rou's emotional change could not escape his eyes.

The Hu family has always had a good relationship with the Cao family, and Hu Chen is also very close to Cao An. Before Hu Xuan went abroad, he and Xia Rou also seemed to be friends. Therefore, Hu Chen is no stranger to Xia Rou.

This is a girl with a gentle temper and a soft personality. Although she has the support of the Cao family, she is very self-aware, and she has always been gentle and polite to others, which is very likable. The indifference she showed today was the first time for Hu Chen.

Of course, Hu Chen understood that this indifference was not aimed at him. He glanced at Liang Zihuan, calmly cut off his attempt to strike up a conversation with Xia Rou, and led him to find someone else.

Only then did Xia Rou's stiff shoulders relax.

From the last time she saw him, she knew that she couldn't hide from this person. She and him will meet again sooner or later. But in her mind, Liang Zihuan had the honor of not being invited to Wang Man's birthday party. She didn't expect him to appear here.

Yes, he has a way to sneak in after all. He was already a man who was very good at drilling. Attentive, winking, sweet mouth.

In his previous life, he treated her like a princess.

For her, a fake young lady who was not recognized by Cao Xiong, her vanity was severely satisfied. until…

The light in the private room dimmed.

The waiter slowly walked into the private room pushing the three-story exquisite birthday cake. I don't know who started it. In the candlelight, everyone began to sing the birthday song "Happy Birthday to You".

The next steps are just like the plots in idol TV dramas. The beautiful princess makes a wish, blows out the candles, and accepts everyone's blessings with a smile.

Then the soft music sounded, and someone booed: "Wang Man, come and dance!"

Someone took the lead, and others started booing.

Wang Man shrugged generously, and joked: "But no man invited me!"

Everyone went to see Cao Yang at the same time.

Not to mention the younger ones. A person who is of the right age and single, even if he has ideas in his heart, with Prince Cao around, who would dare to compete with him for the limelight.

Cao Yang sneered inwardly, feeling that the arrangement of this plot was vulgar and hypocritical. For a man of his age, this vaguely girly princess look is a bit boring.

But he had to give Wang Man face.

No matter what you think in your heart, there is always a smile on your face. Looking elegant, he has a suave and charming style.

When he took Wang Man's hand and slid onto the dance floor, the man was tall, tough and elegant, while the woman had an outstanding temperament, beautiful and noble. Everyone looks like a pair of lovers. The several daughters couldn't help showing their envy towards Wang Man. Among them, Sun Miaolan's expression is the most vivid.

Then someone whispered.

"Are they together?"

"I haven't heard of it."

"Speaking of which, the Wang family and the Cao family...there is no better family than their two families..."

"Yeah, the two are really a good match."

Xia Rou came here today to see such a picture. She should be very happy, but now she is not in high spirits.

Cao Yang and Wang Man danced very well, turning around on the dance floor with smooth movements. After a few laps, other people began to leave the stage, and everyone took advantage of Wang Man to stir up the atmosphere.

Xia Rou suddenly felt the gaze, turned her head to look, and saw Liang Zihuan looking at her.

She stared at him for a while, then looked away coldly.

Liang Zihuan hesitated for a moment, but did not step forward.

Just now, he looked at the sky and quietly asked Hu Chen what Xia Rou's identity was.

Hu Chen's answer is very interesting: "People from the Cao family."

But her surname is Xia.

"A cousin?" Liang Zihuan asked.

"No." Hu Chen replied, "Her mother had been with Commander Cao before, but she passed away later, and there was no one in her family, so the Cao family took her home to raise her."

"Illegitimate daughter?"

"No blood relationship."

Xia Rou has no blood relationship with the Cao family, which was confirmed by Xia Rou herself. People in the circle have figured out her identity.

Liang Zihuan's gaze was a little surprised, apart from the surprise, he couldn't tell whether he was disappointed or happy.

Hu Chen was amused.

This kid is very flattering, and he is quite flattering to him. Hu Chen has always admired people who are ambitious and know how to make money. So he didn't mind taking him with him, and occasionally giving him some opportunities to socialize with people on a higher level.

He does take chances, too.

It's just that the Liang family is indeed not considered to be a high-income family. A generation of riches is the so-called nouveau riche. Many people are not willing to talk to him.

"There is no blood relationship. But..." Hu Chen lit a cigarette, "Do you think anyone here dares to treat her slowly?"

Liang Zihuan showed a look of asking for advice.

But also children can teach.

Hu Chen was not hesitant to point out: "The Cao family recognizes her. At the Cao family's banquet, she stood with the four Cao Yang brothers. On other formal occasions, Cao Yang personally brought her."

Hu Chen actually likes Xia Rou a lot. Xia Rou is not smart, but she is self-conscious. If you can do these two things, you are already smarter than many people.

He thought that it was probably because of this that she was accepted by the Cao family. With the Cao family's endorsement, even though she was an orphan, she became a daughter.

"So, is she considered an adopted daughter?" Liang Zihuan asked.

"Almost. Although there is no formal ceremony, but the Cao family's recognition is more effective than any formalities. Although her surname is Xia, she is a girl from the Cao family, and no one can treat her lightly." Hu Chen said. The last sentence is like an explanation, like a warning.

Liang Zihuan thought about it.

When the dance music started, he secretly looked at Xia Rou in the crowd, secretly comparing and estimating.

When Xia Rou looked at him, he really thought about asking her to dance. But Xia Rou looked at him too coldly, so he couldn't help hesitating.

When she seemed to ignore his existence and looked away, he could only give up with a slight regret.

Maybe it's because of unfamiliarity, he thought. Said to be an adopted daughter, she seemed to have the temper of a young lady. Tsk.

But this kind of little girl should be easier to coax than other real young ladies. Besides, she was born beautiful.

Most importantly, although her surname is not Cao, she is already a girl from the Cao family.

And as a girl from the Cao family, the fact that her surname is not Cao is her greatest advantage.

So, Liang Zihuan thought, the future will last longer.

A slow dance ended, the DJ turned his hand, and the music changed from soothing to noisy in an instant. The waiter switched the lights according to the occasion, and the atmosphere in the party room instantly heated up.

This is a party full of young people, and this kind of atmosphere is the mainstream.

The slow dance just now was obviously deliberately arranged to highlight the birthday girl's status as a princess.

The foreman also let in two hot girls who were lead dancers, stepped on the rhythm all the way up to the two lead stages with poles, and twisted.

This is all pre-arranged.

The host of this party is a woman, the guests are male and female, and there are even a few younger ones like Xia Rou who come to play with their brothers and sisters. Even the hot girl who leads the dance is very measured. The clothes are not revealing, and the actions are not pornographic, it is just to drive the atmosphere.

A group of young men and women got excited.

Cao Yang was too old to play these things, drinking and playing dice with a few elders.

From time to time, he glanced at the dance floor and saw Xia Rou being dragged onto the dance floor as well. She has a slender waist and long legs, and her jeans tightly wrap her waist and hips. She is quite attractive when she twists and turns under the flickering lights.

Cao Yang just looked at her for a while.

He soon discovered that he was not the only one looking at Xia Rou.

The girl's film is quite attractive!
