Shen Qingyue’s voice sounded lazy, “My grandfather is celebrating his birthday. Of course, I’m happy about it, but seeing all of you here puts a slight flaw in this good mood. You people have once again shown me what it means to have thick skin. If it were someone else, I doubt they’d have the face to come.”

Qin Zhen immediately darkened his face, sharp eyes fixated on her.

Shen Qingyue sneered and no longer paid attention to them. On this auspicious day, she did not want to be disgusted by these flies.

People around them quietly discussed.

“Is Qin Zhen under some kind of spell? He’s a master in business, but when it comes to handling relationships, he’s so peculiar. Bringing a new love to his ex-wife’s grandfather’s birthday banquet? Is he out of his mind? Does he really think the Shen family is easy to mess with?”

“Who knows? All we can say is that woman must have some means. Both of them don’t even care about their reputation. Any self-respecting person wouldn’t do such a thing, right? It’s clear that he had an affair within the marriage, who can’t see that? But that mistress doesn’t even look that good? Compared to Shen Qingyue, they are on completely different levels. I wonder what Qin Zhen is thinking.”

“I heard she comes from a modest background, from some small and insignificant family. I don’t know how Qin Zhen could bear to divorce Shen Qingyue for a woman like that.”

“What kind of insignificant family? She’s actually an illegitimate child, her mother raised her all along, then her mother became a mistress and married into the Wei family, pretending to be a Wei family lady. But the Wei family is nothing special either, just a small company, nothing significant.”

“Oh, I thought she had some impressive background.”

“By the way, in the past, the Shen family lent five billion to the Qin family to help them get through tough times. But after just one year, the Qin family recovered, and Qin Zhen turned around and dumped Shen Qingyue. It’s really a cold world we live in! Even if they become powerful in the future, what can they do? If we cooperate with the Qin family, who knows if we’ll be abandoned next time?”

“That’s hard to say…”

The whispers around continued, and Wei Jiu’er clenched the hem of her dress tightly, her eyelashes quivering slightly. She knew that Qin Zhen must have heard these words, and he must be very angry. She leaned toward him, pretending to be hurt by Shen Qingyue’s words but still trying to endure it.

“Qingyue, you don’t welcome me and Zhen, do you?”

Shen Qingyue appeared elegant and tranquil, but her words were completely opposite, “Do I even need to say it? Aren’t you both clueless? You can actually ask such a question. Admirable, truly admirable!”

Wei Jiu’er could not help but shed tears, and Qin Zhen stared angrily, “Shen Qingyue!”

Shen Qingyue pretended not to notice. She could tell that these people were probably transformed flies—not biting people, just pretending to be someone they’re not. There was no use swatting them away, as they multiplied too quickly. She said to Shen Jun, “Grandfather, Chen Ying and the others have arrived. Let’s go over.”

Shen Jun had no intention of getting close to the Qin family, especially after witnessing them lose face. He felt relieved. If it were his younger self, he would have made things difficult for them and ruined their reputation. But now that he was older, he was too lazy to bother with such matters. He smiled kindly,

“Alright, let’s go.”

He completely ignored the Qin family throughout the whole process.

Needless to say, the Qin family felt extremely embarrassed.

Shen Qingyue had not seen Chen Ying for some time. When she saw her today, she noticed that her spirit seemed down, with dark circles under her eyes. Shen

Qingyue could not help but tease her, “Hey, Sister, are you planning to compete with pandas for the biggest dark circles? Haven’t slept in days?” Chen Ying glanced at her weakly and did not say anything.

Sensing that something was wrong, Shen Qingyue asked, “What’s really going on with you? It can’t be just because of what happened that day, right? You used to go out and have fun too…”

Chen Ying hesitated to speak and finally shook her head, saying nothing.

Just as Shen Qingyue was about to greet Chen Song, who was approaching them, Chen Ying hurriedly walked away. It was obvious she was avoiding him; it seemed like the two of them were having a disagreement.

As Chen Song approached, Shen Qingyue asked, “Have you confessed to Chen Ying?”

Chen Song remained silent for a while before saying, “Not yet, but it’s almost time. It was unexpected. It’ll be fine in a while.”

Although he had considered expressing his feelings to Chen Ying, it remained just a thought. He could not bring himself to do it.

Shen Qingyue wanted to advise him further, but the butler came over with her phone. “Miss, there’s a call for you.”

Shen Qingyue took the phone and glanced at it—it was from Chi Ming!

She informed Chen Song and then went to a quiet corner to answer the call. The phone connected, and a low, charming voice came from the other end, inexplicably alluring. “I’m at the entrance..”
