Shen Congrong pondered for a moment and chuckled, "Don't worry, this is easy to handle. I didn't want to hold Jiuer's return party at Ranran's birthday party. If I hadn't taken Ranran's feelings into consideration, I wouldn't have agreed to it."

Wei Yutong nodded. She had the same idea. The two daughters' major life events should be handled separately.

downstairs.

Shen Youran looked at her own reflection in the window. The long white dress made her slender body look even taller, like a model.

This kind of self is invulnerable.

Thinking of her parents' appearance just now, she lowered her eyelids to hide her gloom. Even if there was no one around, even if there were no servants around, she would carefully conceal her dark side, leaving only a trace of sadness for outsiders to see.

In the past, my parents would not be as indifferent as they are this year. They would only say "it looks good".

In previous years, her mother would walk around her, looking at her from left to right, with tenderness in her eyes almost overflowing, "My Ranran has really grown up, and is becoming more and more like a fairy descending from heaven."

If her father saw that her back was almost naked, he would frown in disapproval, "Girl, isn't your dress too revealing? How about changing into something else?"

Today, he said nothing.

After Jiuer came back, they talked to her alone, saying that their love for her would not diminish and asked her to love her sister well.

But in fact, isn't this still a decrease? Their attention to her has still decreased.

Shen Youran went upstairs holding her skirt and pushed open the door of Lu Xi's room.

Lu Xi was looking down and adjusting her bra. She had never worn this kind of dress before and had forgotten to prepare nipple covers, but luckily her bra had invisible straps.

"Silly Jiuer, you need nipple stickers. Wait, I'll give them to you."

Lu Xi did not refuse. After Shen Youran handed her the nipple covers, she observed Shen Youran through the mirror.

Shen Youran kept her eyes downcast with a smile on her lips, as if she was concentrating on helping her without any other thoughts.

Lu Xi asked tentatively: "Sister, what would you do if Brother Jiang married someone else?"

Shen Youran paused, then raised her head and answered half seriously and half jokingly, "I will definitely kill the woman he married. Who let her steal the man I love?"

Lu Xi froze for a moment, and then her face turned cold in an instant.

kill? !

Does Shen Youran really love Jiang Yizhou?

She doesn't believe it.

"Hahaha, I'm just kidding. I'm not cruel enough to kill someone. But Yizhou loves me so much that he won't marry anyone else."

Shen Youran knew that Lu Xi liked Jiang Yizhou because Zhuang Yi liked her, and she felt sorry for her best friend.

Oh, her parents just want her to treat her sister well, but how could they not want Lu Xi to not care about her own sister for the sake of her best friend?

Although she is not Lu Xi's biological sister, Lu Xi doesn't know it.

Jiang Yizhou mentioned to Shen Youran his one night stand with Zhuang Yi and wanted to cancel the marriage, but she refused.

She said, "Yizhou, getting married just because you have sex is the stupidest thing to do. If you want to confirm whether Zhuang Yi loves you, just see if she dares to snatch the bride at our wedding."

Shen Youran didn't take action against Lu Xi now because she still had concerns, but doing nothing was not her personality.

So, Zhuang Yi has to bear the brunt of the situation.

Because of Zhuang Yi, Lu Xi became confrontational with her and even broke up with her sister. What would her parents think?

Lu Xi bit her lip, feeling very unhappy.

Shen Youran said Jiang Yizhou loves her, so what should Yiyi do?

"Okay, why are you suddenly asking about your future brother-in-law? Look, our Jiuer is so beautiful." Shen Youran changed the subject.

Lu Xi forced herself to put away her thoughts and looked at herself in the mirror.

She was also wearing a white dress. Not as elegant as Shen Youran's, but Lu Xi liked it very much.

After putting it on, she was still a little embarrassed because it was a low-cut camisole style. She had only worn small camisole at home before and had never worn it like this outside.

Shen Youran specially combed Lu Xi's hair and tied it into a bun. She said softly, "I remember that your father gave you a crown one year. Did you take it off?"

Lu Xi nodded and opened all the gifts. She collected the stickers inside and stuck them in an album.

That's all the love her family has for her.

Shen Youran urged her, "Go get it and I'll put it on for you."

Lu Xi frowned, "No need, it's just a try on of clothes, no need to be so formal?"

"Silly boy, let's see what look will be better tomorrow. You are the protagonist, you must amaze everyone."

Lu Xi couldn't understand Shen Youran and didn't know what she was trying to do.

**

When Lu Xi came downstairs holding up her skirt, the couple were stunned.

"Wow, our Jiuer is like a fairy from heaven, she is so beautiful." Wei Yutong held Lu Xi's shoulders and liked her more and more the more she looked at her.

Shen Congrong also nodded repeatedly, "She is worthy of being my daughter, Shen Congrong. Humph, it's really a bargain for that little bastard from the Fu family, he is willing to marry my daughter to him."

Wei Yutong laughed, "What does it have to do with you? This is my daughter."

Shen Congrong flattered, "My wife is so beautiful that she gave birth to such an incredibly beautiful daughter. I have good taste and know how to choose a wife. Can't this be considered a credit?"

Wei Yutong laughed, "Brother Rong is so narcissistic that he can even praise himself for this."

Shen Congrong spread his hands, "I can't help it. My wife doesn't praise me, so I can only praise myself. If I'm not narcissistic, I'll have to worry about my beautiful wife running away with someone else every day. How terrible would that be?"

The couple is old, but they talk like a young couple.

Shen Youran couldn't help but tease, "Mom and Dad, that's enough, you've been sticky like this since I can remember.

"Jiu'er, you know, your parents are famous for their love. When I was a child, they always appeared together at parent-teacher conferences and parent-child activities. Others were so envious of me. They always said, 'Shen Youran, your parents are so good-looking.' I still have a lot of photos and videos of parent-child sports events, and I'll show them to you one day."

Shen Youran did it on purpose.

Because she knew that Lu Xi went to primary school in the village, that left-behind children were not accompanied by their parents, that he went to the town for junior high school, and that he would miss every parent-teacher meeting.

Classmates all said that Lu Xi had no parents. Those who knew the truth would say, "Her parents are divorced and don't want her. She only has an older sister who works in a factory tightening screws."

Shen Youran enjoyed everything that Lu Xi never had. What was out of reach for Lu Xi was something that she, Shen Youran, easily possessed.

She wanted Lu Xi to know that there was a huge difference between them.

He also wanted to create a gap between Lu Xi and her parents, so that Lu Xi would feel more inferior and would think that Lu Yao was the person closest to her.

Shen Youran didn't like Lu Xi coming back to the Shen family to compete with her for everything that belonged to her.

Lu Xi has no right to compete with her for the love of her parents, the love of her brother, the Shen family's property, and Fu Nanzhou, and she will protect them all.

Lu Xi couldn't tell what she felt in her heart. Shen Youran was smiling and there was no hostility in her expression, but she could just feel Shen Youran's hostility.

She glanced at Shen Youran and almost couldn't help but retort.

But before she could say anything, Shen Youran smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, what do you think of Jiuer's outfit? She wants to surprise everyone at my birthday party and let everyone know that the Shen family has a beautiful second daughter."

Lu Xi frowned, "What do you mean I want to surprise everyone? Do you mean I want to steal your limelight?"

"Jiu'er, it's nothing. I want to beat those female stars too. It's not shameful. It proves that we have a desire to win."

Shen Youran was still laughing, speaking in a casual tone, as if he was joking.

Lu Xi's face turned completely cold.

Wei Yutong tried to smooth things over, "Baby, your sister is right. Our Jiuer is the prettiest, enough to crush other celebrities."

"Mom, she was the one who brought up the crown and urged me to find it and wear it. I never thought of shining at her birthday party, nor did I think I could steal her limelight. I just felt that she was very hostile to me."

Lu Xi didn't want to be wronged, not before, and even less so now. The stubbornness in her bones allowed her to endure hardships, but not to be framed!
