At the end of his speech, he couldn't help but sigh, and his voice was very vicissitudes.

I suddenly remembered that he was 55 years old this year, and he had a lot of new gray hair on his sideburns, and he needed to go to the barber shop every year to get it black.

My father, who grew up with me, was old, and even though he wasn't my biological father, and even though he had done something chilling to me, I relented when he invited me almost pleadingly to spend his birthday with him.

It's just a meal, and that's all I can do for him in the future.

"Okay, is it going to be eaten at home?" I said yes and asked him softly.

The father was instantly overjoyed and said with a smile: "At the Sophie Hotel, the specific address, I will send you a text message later!" ”

On Tuesday, I arrived at the Sophie Hotel as promised, and when I stepped out of the elevator, I realized something wasn't quite right.

The welcome sign at the door reads "Welcome all guests to the 55th birthday banquet of Nguyen Kim Hong".

When I entered the No. 1 banquet hall, I immediately furrowed my brows, and my father's "simple family meal" turned into a large-scale birthday party.

"Xiaoshi, you're here." When my father saw me, he hurried up with my mother and led me past the many guests.

As they walked, they didn't forget to introduce me to me as their daughter.

My mother was just right, and asked me in a loud voice, "Why didn't Yunzhou come?" ”

I was stunned, it was not my turn to answer, and my father immediately answered: "Yunzhou called me, there is an important meeting today, and he said to come later." You also know that with such a big group as the Li family, he has a lot of hard work to take care of. I asked him to go home early to rest after he was busy, and I was very happy to have Xiaoshi to accompany me on my birthday. ”

I felt a chill in my heart, I don't know how many times I had rehearsed this conversation between my parents in private, and it had reached the point where it was smooth and ripe.

My father lied to me, he took advantage of my soft-heartedness and tricked me into coming to the birthday party.

In fact, he wanted to use the name of Li Yunzhou to seek more business cooperation for the Ruan family.

After all, after the charity dinner, everyone thought that Li Yunzhou not only did not divorce me, but also spoiled me.

"Lao Ruan, I really envy you for giving birth to such a beautiful daughter, and you have the kind of fast son-in-law of Mr. Li!" Someone complimented.

Constant scrutiny of eyes came to me.

I squinted at my father, the smile on his face froze, and he looked away from me.

It was as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on me, and I only felt cold to the bone.

Turning to leave, my mother suddenly squeezed my hand.

She smiled and patted my hand, and said softly, "Xiaoshi, come and take a picture for my mother and the ladies." ”

Not allowing me to refuse, she pulled me to the box quickly.

Before pushing the door, she put away her motherly expression, glared at me and frowned, "No matter what, you are still my daughter in name." If the Ruan family loses face, you will not have a good time in the future. ”

"So you're going to use it to squeeze me for the rest of my life until I'm worthless?" I was saddened.

Or I didn't expect that I would talk back to her face, and my mother's face became more and more gloomy. If it weren't for the crowd, I felt like she would even want to slap me.

She snorted coldly, "You should be glad that you are still valuable!" ”

With that, she put on a smiling face again and pushed open the box door.

There sat a group of well-dressed women, several of whom I had met at the charity dinner, and the wives of the CEOs of listed companies. Among them, there was a noble lady in a ruby green cheongsam who stood out.

She is extremely well maintained, her skin is fair and delicate, and her almond eyes are clear and smart.

It's the kind of woman who can't help but look at it a few more times.

"Mrs. Su, let me introduce you, this is my daughter, Ruan Shi." Mother spoke.

Mrs. Su looked at me gently, bent her eyebrows and smiled like a spring breeze: "Hello, my name is Li Xue, you can call me Mrs. Su like them, of course, I am more happy for you to call me Aunt Li." ”

Li Xue's eyes seem to be able to speak, and when she stares at people, she can always feel extra kind.

It was the first time I had seen such a shelfless Mrs. Kuo, and my originally irritable mood suddenly calmed down.

"Hello Aunt Li." I greeted me nicely.

My mother dragged me to sit next to Li Xue, and the wives gathered together, which was nothing more than comparing themselves with each other.

Whoever bought a limited edition bag, whose husband gave a villa yacht again.

I was bored listening to it, Li Xue suddenly came to my ear, lowered her voice, and asked me playfully: "Are you bored too!" Why don't we work together? ”

I was stunned, and Li Xue winked at me when I agreed.

In the next second, she picked up a cup of tea and pretended to accidentally spill it on her cheongsam.

"Oops!" Li Xue exclaimed, everyone stopped talking, and Qi Shushu's eyes turned over.

Seeing this, my mother was a little anxious, and hurriedly said, "I'll order someone to send a clean dress!" ”

"No need." Li Xue smiled embarrassedly, "I went to bed early, and I was too sleepy just now to be careless." I'll just go home and change my clothes, I'm really sorry today, next time I'll have a banquet for you. ”

As she spoke, she gave me a look.

I understood and immediately answered: "I happened to be here by car, why don't I take you home?" ”

"Then it's hard for you." Li Xue took my hand and led me out of the banquet hall.

When she got into the car, she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

I thought she was cute, and asked her with a smile, "Aunt Li doesn't seem to like to participate in this kind of party?" ”

"It's all my husband's fault, saying that I was afraid that I would be bored when I first came to the capital, so I had to know more wives from other families. Hey, just these women who only buy bags and clothes all day long, make my brain buzz and hurt! "Li Xue complained to me like a little girl.

I sighed in my heart, and I could see that she was living a very happy life, so she could maintain her true temperament at this age.

She realized something again, and whispered, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything bad about your mother. ”

"Poof." I couldn't help but laugh, "No need to apologize, because I agree with what you said." ”

After all, I was deceived too.

I drove Li Xue home.

When I got out of the car, she took off the jade bracelet from her hand and put it on my wrist.

"Aunt Li, what are you doing here?" The color of the bracelet is not cheap at first glance.

"Thank you for sending me back, this is Auntie's gift to you." Li Xue smiled, "If you don't dislike me for being old, the next time I'm bored alone, I'll ask you to go shopping and eat." ”

She got out of the car and left.

At night, I had just fallen asleep when I received a call from Li Yunzhou: "Where are you?" ”

"At home, what's wrong?" I was so sleepy that I couldn't even open my eyes.

On the other end of the phone, Li Yunzhou said in a deep voice: "Now come to the company and have an emergency meeting." ”
