C56

Time flew and two days passed quickly.

On this day, Li Jiangnan was still in the study room designing the story of Lv Bu's revival, when his phone suddenly rang.

Picking it up, he saw that it was Song Rouyuan.

"Is it Jiangnan?"

When the call connected, the voice that came through the phone sounded somewhat uneasy. It was as if the shadow of the incident from two days ago was not over yet.

"Mm, it's me."

"Today is my mother's birthday, we are at the Yanxiao Grand Hotel."

"I know."

Song Rouyuan had not finished speaking when she hung up the phone. Song Rouyuan, who was on the other side of the phone, heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the busy signal from the other side.

Only then did she realize that her back had already been drenched all along.

"Li Jiangnan!"

Muttering to himself, Song Rouyuan forced himself to concentrate and tidied up. Just that, once she heard Li Jiangnan's voice, her entire body couldn't help but tremble, and then, she thought about Li Jiangnan …

He would think of the corpse that was burnt to nothingness by the flames that appeared out of nowhere and the mouth that was being ripped apart alive …

"Ahh!"

An ear-piercing screech suddenly rang out in the Yan Xiao Hotel, startling the people who were preparing outside.

Di Di took a taxi. Her mission was guaranteed.

After hanging up the call from Song Rouyuan, Li Jiangnan quickly reached the Yan Xiao Hotel. There were two rows of tall flower baskets on the red carpet, and beside each of the flower baskets, there was a hostess wearing a red qipao.

On the carpet, scraps of colored paper sparkled from time to time.

"Remember to give a 5-star evaluation!"

Li Jiangnan got off the carriage, nodded his head, and responded to the driver's request. Then, he walked over to the hotel.

From the looks of it, his uncle seemed to have put in a lot of effort to curry favor with his aunt.

"Welcome to the Song Manor's birthday feast. Please proceed to the second floor's main hall."

Just as he walked onto the carpet, the welcoming lady by the side nodded her head, then smiled and pointed out the way for Li Jiangnan.

Looking at his surroundings, Li Jiangnan went up to the second floor.

"Aiya, Jiang Nan is here!"

Li Jiangnan had just reached the second floor, and Li Qian, with his sharp eyes, had already discovered his traces. He hurriedly answered and dragged him, bringing Li Jiangnan to a table, letting Li Jiangnan sit down, and then said: "Jiangnan, come here, don't be shy, and don't worry about anything. Today is a good day, you should eat, drink, and don't be courteous to Aunt, understand?"

"Yes, Auntie, I know."

Li Jiangnan nodded, "Auntie, you go and busy yourself!"

"Alright, alright, alright. Then I'll be leaving first."

Li Qian seemed to be really busy, after settling Li Jiangnan down, she headed towards the stairs, and together with Song Tao, continued to welcome the endless stream of guests.

After looking at it for a bit, Li Jiangnan leaned back on the chair, closed his eyes and started to think about the matter of Lv Bu's revival.

"This kid really doesn't think of himself as an outsider anymore."

To the side, Song Tao watched helplessly as Li Qian served Li Jiangnan to the dining table, and when he saw Li Qian return, he could not help but snort coldly.

This poor brat really didn't have any manners. He came to attend someone else's birthday and didn't ask for anything good from you. He didn't even bring any fruits, but he came empty-handed.

They must be here to eat for free!

"Song Tao, what did you say? "Why is Jiangnan an outsider?"

Li Qian heard Song Tao's mutterings, and her eyebrows immediately rose: "Hey you, why do you have such a spiteful tone? "You're too used to acting arrogantly in the company that I ignored you. You've even grown up now, haven't you?"

"Stop being so noisy here!"

Song Tao was already angry in his heart, he directly glared at Li Qian and said: "Let me tell you, I'm too lazy to quarrel with you!"

"So if you say it's not noisy, it's not noisy? Then what were you so proud of? What, Jiang Nan coming here is still in your way, isn't it? "If you really don't welcome Jiangnan, then I'll go with him right now!"

"Go?" Where are you going? "

"I'm going back to my parents' home! There's no way we can live this life anymore! "

Li Qian's words made Song Tao feel like burning his nose. In her heart, she also started to hate Li Jiangnan more and more.

Every time Li Jiangnan came here, he would always argue with Li Qian. To Song Tao, Li Jiangnan was the main culprit who destroyed his family's harmonious happiness!

"Forget it, I won't quarrel with you. Today is your birthday. Let's end it here."

But when he looked at Li Qian, Song Tao seemed to be deflated, he waved his hands, and did not continue nagging. The scene today had already been spread, and some of his business friends had already arrived. If the owner of the birthday banquet went to their parents' home at this time, it would truly be a great shock to Song Tao.

Song Tao still cherished his feathers a lot.

In next to no time, the two of them had settled their emotions and put up a smiling face, continuing to welcome the guests who came one after another.

"Ah, Director Wang, you're too kind, Director Wang."

"Director Liu, Director Liu, oh, how could you say that? It's such a great thing that you're willing to honor me, how can I not welcome you?"

On the other side.

Song Rouyuan had finally calmed down and walked out from the toilet. With a smile on her face, she decided to go around and help out with some stuff so that her father could show off.

Just last night, Song Tao even specially greeted Song Rouyuan, telling him to be more quick-witted today.

After all, the people who were coming this time were all influential, and Song Tao had to fawn over a portion of them.

But nothing could go wrong.

However, when Song Rouyuan looked at the hall, she subconsciously saw a familiar back view, following that, the smile on her face, froze.

How could he come so fast?

Song Rouyuan felt that her feet were trembling. Looking at this back view, she felt as if she was falling into an ice cave, making her unable to take a single step.

What a coincidence.

On the other side, Li Jiangnan who was currently thinking with his eyes closed suddenly had a feeling that he was being watched. After all, as a Cultivator, his five senses were always stronger than others.

He turned his head in curiosity, only to see Song Rouyuan standing at the door of the toilet, staring at him like a statue.

"Yuanyuan!"

Just as the atmosphere became awkward, Song Tao noticed the situation, frowned, and shouted.

Song Rouyuan was still like a wooden statue, unmoved.

"Yuanyuan?"

Song Tao's voice already carried a trace of anger. The loud shouts of this lifetime also caused the noisy environment to suddenly quiet down. Everyone turned their heads around, wanting to see what exactly was going on.

"Ah?" "Oh!"

Only then did Song Rouyuan regain her senses, and she quickly responded. However, this flustered look made the grievances in her heart surge even further.

Then, Song Tao glared at Li Jiangnan. Although he did not know what was happening, he had seen how his daughter was staring at Li Jiangnan.

And Song Rouyuan's flustered look was obviously a little funny too. Some of the guests that were a little lower in spirits couldn't help but snicker.

Song Rouyuan only felt that she had lost all her face.
