The next morning, Jiang Yuechu woke up in a daze and subconsciously reached out to touch the quilt beside him. It was ice-cold. Only then did he wake up. Everything that happened last night seemed to be just a dream.

……

Lu Zhanting’s birthday party is coming soon.

Jiang Yuechu dressed up the two children early in the morning and put on the clothes she had prepared.

"Sister, you look so beautiful today." San Ya is never stingy with her praise.

"Erniu, Sanya is the same today." Jiang Yuechu replied with a smile.

Everything was ready, she took the gifts, took her two children and went to the Lu family courtyard.

"Yue'er is here, come in quickly." Tao Yumei was so happy when she saw her. "Come with me to the hotel in a while."

"Okay. This is my birthday present for godfather and godmother." Jiang Yuechu handed over the gift in his hand, "I wish godfather good fortune like the long flowing water of the East China Sea, and a long life like the evergreen pines of the Southern Mountains."

"I wish uncle good health and all the best!"

"I wish uncle good health and all the best!"

Erniu and Sanya immediately stood in front of Lu Zhanting and gave him their blessings.

"Okay, okay." Today, Lu Zhanting had a gentle smile on his face, without his usual coldness.

"Big brother, big sister-in-law, second brother, third brother..."

Today is the day when the most members of the Lu family are together, even Lu Ji, who has not been seen for a long time, shows up.

"Okay, we'll go to the Imperial Hotel together later." Tao Yumei held Jiang Yuechu's hand, "Just stay with me. Don't worry about the two children. I'll arrange for someone to take good care of them."

Jiang Yuechu hesitated to speak. She actually didn't want to take advantage of the Lu family. To her, this was not a place she wanted to stay for a long time.

But she couldn't refuse Tao Yumei's kindness, so she had to smile and nod.

Today, it is estimated that everyone with a little status in the entire Beijing city will come here.

When they got out of the car at the hotel, Jiang Yuechu looked at the cars parked outside. They had already occupied all the spaces. It seemed that there were more cars than she expected.

Lu Yun and his wife, Lu Ji and Lu Lin stood at the door to welcome the guests, while Tao Yumei led Jiang Yuechu directly into the hotel. Qin Yaru saw this scene, pursed her lips, and showed a hint of disdain. She turned around and showed a bright smile, welcoming waves of guests.

Lin Feixue walked in holding Qin Zongxuan's arm and followed Qin Zhihui and his wife.

"Dad, Mom, you're here!" Qin Yaru smiled brightly when she saw him. "Why didn't grandpa and uncle come? Where's my brother?"

"Dad, Mom!" Lu Yun called out immediately.

"Your grandpa and uncle are not feeling well today, so they won't be here." Qin Zhihui was very satisfied with his son-in-law, and his face was full of smiles. "Your brother has something to do, so he will be here later."

"Okay, then you guys go in quickly."

As Qin Yaru spoke, she glanced at Qin Zongxuan and Lin Feixue beside them, and was very disdainful of the two people.

One of them was clamoring to break off the engagement not long ago, and the other was given an impostor's identity. Today, the two of them appeared here in a sweet and loving manner. But now the Qin family has not made it public, so she can only pretend that she knows nothing.

Rumors are just rumors after all. As long as Jiang Yannan's identity is not made public, Qin Zongxuan is the eldest son and grandson of the Qin family. It is natural for him to attend this banquet.

Lin Feixue had broken off the engagement once before, and because Master Lu was not at home, she broke off the engagement easily. If she broke off the engagement again this time, she would not be able to expect to have a good reputation in the upper circles of Beijing or find a good family.

So under the authority of Master Lin, Lin Feixue had to accompany the fake Qin Zongxuan to attend the birthday party.

Qin Zongxuan greeted them nonchalantly: "Cousin, brother-in-law, we'll go in first."

Lu Yun looked indifferent and nodded at the two of them.

As soon as he walked in, Lin Feixue shook off his arm. Qin Zongxuan was no longer the Qin Zongxuan of the past. Even though he was angry and impatient, he still coaxed the woman beside him in a humble manner.

He knew that if he didn't want to be abandoned by the Qin family, he could only hold on to Lin Feixue as a lifeline.

Lin Feixue looked impatient and was about to turn around, but she saw Jiang Yuechu, who was following Tao Yumei. She was wearing a black long-sleeved dress, her hair was tied up high with a white jade hairpin, she was tall and slender, and her beauty was unparalleled.

She was dressed simply, but exuded her own radiance and became the focus of the entire venue.

Lin Feixue was so jealous that her eyes turned red and she gnashed her teeth in hatred.

How could a country bumpkin get so much attention from people? Family background, grades, looks, which one of them could compare to hers? Just because she was adopted as a goddaughter by the Lu family, she wanted to ascend to heaven overnight.

She would not let her have her way. She wanted her to be disgraced at this banquet, to have the Lu family dislike her, and to have everyone see her ugly side.

Thinking of this, her heart gradually calmed down and a sinister smile appeared on her face.

Jiang Yuechu on the other side was so smiling that her face was almost frozen. Taking advantage of the break in the bathroom, she finally took a breath and rubbed her stiff cheeks.

Suddenly a face appeared behind her, reflected in the mirror.

Jiang Yuechu was startled and saw Lin Feixue's distorted face, which was full of jealousy and resentment, staring at her.

"Jiang Yuechu, how can you be so shameless? You seduced Qin Zongxuan before, and now you're hooking up with the Lu family, right? Do you think Lu Lin would be interested in someone like you?"

Jiang Yuechu washed his hands slowly, turned around and shook his hands vigorously, and tiny water droplets flew directly onto the face of the woman opposite.

She grabbed Lin Feixue by the collar and dragged her to the mirror: "Lin Feixue, take a close look at your face in the mirror. It's ugly and distorted. Don't you claim to be the eldest daughter of the Lin family? How did you become like this?"

"I broke off the engagement with the Lu family and found a fake one. Why, seeing that my third brother has become successful, you regret it now? Lin Feixue, there is no regret medicine in this world."

Jiang Yuechu finished speaking, let go of her hand, slowly smoothed the wrinkles on her collar, and whispered in her ear: "So what if you are the eldest daughter of the Lin family? You will never get what you can't have."

After saying that, he no longer looked at her and passed by her.

Lin Feixue's face had already been distorted with anger. She stood behind her, gritting her teeth, staring at her back with resentful eyes, like a poisonous snake.

"Jiang Yuechu, I won't let you go..."

It took Lin Feixue a long time to slowly control the expression on her face, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. The show was about to begin...

Jiang Yuechu walked out of the bathroom and walked towards Tao Yumei in the crowd in the distance.

"Miss Jiang," a waiter walked up to Jiang Yuechu with a tray in his hand, "Mrs. Lu said you barely ate anything at night, so she asked me to bring you something to eat."

Jiang Yuechu glanced at the small cake on the tray, which was her favorite chocolate flavor, and there was also a cup of hot milk.

"Okay, thank you." Jiang Yuechu took the tray. There was a lounge not far from her, so she walked straight to the lounge with the tray.
