“Grandpa, everything is ready upstairs. Do you want to come?” Jing Yan walked into the sitting room, not even sparing He Miao a glance.

He did not invite her, but He Miao did not mind. She turned to Grandpa Jing and asked for his opinion.

Grandpa Jing looked at Jing Yan with a strange expression. Jing Yan had never invited him to hang out when he brought his friends home. What was wrong with him today?

However, when he thought of Jing Yan’s birthday, he smiled and stood up, holding He Miao’s hand. “Can you accompany this old man for a meal?”

“Of course I will,” He Miao supported him and pointed at the last piece of cake left in the box on the table. “Grandpa, why don’t you finish it before going?”

“I’ll save it for when you come back.” Grandpa Jing followed her upstairs with a smile.

Jing Yan deliberately lagged behind. When he caught a glimpse of the last piece of osmanthus cake on the table, he felt a little upset.

Seeing the two walking further and further away, he picked up the snack like a thief and stuffed it into his mouth.

The sweetness of the cake slowly spread in the mouth, but when it flowed into the stomach, it felt slightly sour.

Jing Yan lowered his head and followed him. A group of people in the banquet hall welcomed Old Master Jing to sit in the main seat. Mu Xiao saw him standing at the door and quickly came over to grab his arm. “Brother Yan, come quickly. He Wei sings so well! You haven’t heard it yet, right? Today, we’ve have an angel, so it’s a great blessing for our ears.”

“It’s not as good as you say.” He Wei tidied her hair shyly and looked at Jing Yan shyly, only to meet his dazed eyes.

Mu Xiao specially arranged for Jing Yan to sit next to He Wei, then signaled her to sing another song with his eyes.

He Wei looked at Grandpa Jing courteously. The old man nodded with a smile on his face. He held He Miao’s hand and refused to let go, afraid that he would leave her out.

He Miao smiled gratefully and poured a glass of wine for Old Master Jing. 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

A cheerful melody echoed in the banquet hall. He Wei’s voice was melodious and everyone present could hear the love in her voice.

Mu Xiao looked at the expressionless Jing Yan and asked jokingly, “The Young Lady of the He family is not bad, right? She’s beautiful and can sing, she’s worthy of you.”

However, Meng Hui shook his head in disagreement. “I’ve been deceived by you guys. In my opinion, He Wei is not as good-looking as He Miao.”

“What do you know?” Mu Xiao sneered contemptuously. “Our Brother Yan doesn’t like her type. What’s the point of her being beautiful now?”

Meng Hui’s interest was piqued. “Brother Yan, do you really not like her?” 𝐟re𝐞w𝐞𝒃𝓃𝒐𝐯𝚎𝒍.c૦𝚖

Jing Yan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly turned his head and looked at him with knife-like eyes. “What do you want to say?”

Meng Hui swallowed nervously. For some reason, he suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and he could not help but shiver.

He turned around and looked at the air conditioner that was facing him. He thought that it was probably the effect of the air conditioner, so he did not think much about it. He turned around and said mysteriously, “If you don’t like her, can I play with her?”

Jing Yan’s eyes turned cold, and he almost crushed the wine glass in his hand, but Meng Hui still seemed to feel nothing, staring straight at He Miao.

Old Master Jing coughed, and he quickly looked away and smiled at He Miao apologetically.

At the end of the song, He Wei looked at Jing Yan humbly. “Did I sing well?”

“Very good!” Mu Xiao, who was caught in the middle, broke out in an applause. When he heard He Wei’s words, he quickly responded and took the opportunity to catch his breath.

He raised his glass and cleared his throat. “It’s Brother Yan’s birthday today, but Grandpa Jing is here. I’d like to have a toast with Grandpa Jing first.”

Grandpa Jing chuckled as he drank his glass of wine. He Miao also stood up with a smile and offered a toast.

After a glass of wine, her stomach suddenly felt like it was on fire. She suppressed the dizziness in her head and kept Grandpa Jing company until he said he was tired and wanted to go back to rest.

“I’ll go with Grandpa Jing.” He Miao was a little wobbly as she walked. She did not expect that this body could not even tolerate a drop of alcohol, and she was so drunk after only one glass.

Grandpa Jing noticed her discomfort and quickly instructed the servants to help her to the guest room. “Go to sleep and don’t worry about me. I didn’t expect you to be like your mother and not be able to drink. It’s my fault.”

“I’ll send my sister there.” He Wei was worried about leaving her alone, but Mu Xiao grabbed her arm. “What’s there to worry about? What’s the point of us men if you leave? Come, Jing Yan’s house has a new pool room, let’s go play some pool.”
