  "Why are you talking about this? We are good friends." Le Rong rolled her eyes at him and smiled sweetly.

  Chu Cheng couldn't help but curl his lips.

  The two of them walked slowly back to the banquet venue. At this time, all the guests had arrived, and the venue was full of people with fragrant clothes and glasses.

  Chu Cheng suddenly felt a burning gaze, and subconsciously turned his head to look, but it was Qi Lin.

  Qi Lin pursed his lips, looking aloof and keeping away from strangers.

  Keenly, Chu Cheng noticed the other party's bad mood.

  What's going on here? Change of plans?

  Chu Cheng was puzzled.

  "Dear guests, welcome to the birthday party of our birthday boy today, Mr. Lu Zhengbei. I am Song Moumou, today's master of ceremonies. Without further ado, let's invite Mr. Lu to come on stage and say a few words to everyone!"

  Just at this moment, the master of ceremonies' voice sounded.

  Accompanied by warm applause, Lu Zhengbei walked onto the stage with a smile on his face, took the microphone, and delivered his speech seriously.

  To be honest, the content is lackluster.

  Probably feeling that he had the Chu family as his backer, Lu Zhengbei's words were clearly a little arrogant. But after all, he knew the current situation of the Lu family, and finally thanked Chu Cheng emphatically very smoothly, causing a bunch of people to follow his gaze and look at Chu Cheng.

  Facing these looks, Chu Cheng kept smiling, but felt very fed up in his heart.

  Then, he noticed that the eyes of the people around him seemed a bit... gloating? Lu Zhengbei's expression doesn't seem to be good-looking either?

  Before he could figure it out, Lu Ying'er had already walked out from the backstage pushing a six-story cake.

  So, Lu Zhengbei turned around to cut the cake, and then pretended to be generous and asked a few waiters to come over and distribute the cake to the guests to taste. He even whispered a few words to Lu Ying'er, but after a while, Lu Ying'er came to Chu Cheng holding a plate of cake.

  "Brother Cheng, come and try my custom-made cake. It's delicious!" She had a cute smile on her face, which immediately reminded people of a series of beautiful words such as youth and purity.

  Unfortunately, in Chu Cheng's eyes, it was too artificial.

  "Thank you." The corners of Chu Cheng's lips curved just right.

  Lu Ying'er immediately smiled shyly when she heard this. Then, as if she had just discovered Le Rong, she covered her mouth in surprise and said, "Huh? Miss Le, you are still there! Sorry, I didn't see you, so I didn't prepare for you." That cake. You won't blame me, right?" As she said that, she showed a pitiful expression.

  Le Rong was immediately angry.

  Didn't see her? Are you just lying to a fool?

  And before she even said anything, this woman acted aggrieved, as if she had done something bad!

  How disgusting!

  Le Rong did not hide the disgust in his eyes. She was used to being arrogant and wanted to curse when she saw this. Unexpectedly, Chu Cheng raised his hand to hold her shoulders and said to Lu Ying'er in a gentle tone: "It's okay, you didn't mean it."
