Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself



At the entrance of Hua Xia Hotel.

Xia Jingan drove Li Xing'er over and asked casually, "Miss Li, you and Gu Yao are inseparable. Why isn't he here today?"

"Gu Yao is busy managing the company! He really doesn't have the time to attend."

"I heard that Gu Yao is very talented in music?"

When Li Xing'er heard this, she instantly became proud. "That's right! You heard about it too, right?! Gu Yao was raised as a good-for-nothing since he was young. He was ignorant and incompetent and never learned any musical instruments at all. However, he could play the piano perfectly the first time he touched it. After learning for a few months, he reached the standard of being able to play in a concert hall!"

At the mention of Gu Yao, Li Xing'er spoke confidently. Xia Jingan's lips curled into a smile as he muttered, "I see."

There were indeed not many people in the banquet hall. After entering, Xia Jingan saw Qiao Xi at a glance, but he was slightly unhappy. "Why aren't you wearing any of the necklaces I gave you?"

Qiao Xi smiled awkwardly and subconsciously glanced at Gu Zheng. Xia Jingan instantly understood. "Mr. Gu, I'm her brother."

Was Gu Zheng actually jealous?

Qiao Xi hurriedly changed the topic. "If you don't go to Xia Chunyu's banquet, they'll definitely be unhappy. Will you get into trouble?"

"It's okay." Xia Jingan chuckled. "Now that I'm in charge of Xia Corporation, no matter how angry Grandma is, she won't do anything to me."

On the other hand, in First Class Residential.

In the gorgeously decorated banquet hall, Xia Chunyu was wearing a pink princess dress and a diamond crown. She slowly came to Old Madam Xia's side. The entire Xia family was here to celebrate her birthday.

Xia Chunyu held Old Madam Xia's arm and said delicately, "Thank you, Grandma, for holding such a luxurious birthday party for me. I really love you! I'll never marry in my life and just accompany you at home."

Yin Lianyi scratched her nose and said with a loving expression, "Silly girl! Even if you marry someone, you'll always be the little princess of our Xia family."

Xia Chunyu looked around and suddenly asked, "Grandma, where did Brother go? We're about to cut the cake. Why isn't he here yet?"

Yin Lianyi glanced around and realized that Xia Jingan was not around. Today was his sister's birthday. How could he not appear?

Xia Chunyu's eyes turned red as she said aggrievedly, "Grandma, did Brother go to Sister's banquet? He must still blame me regarding the matter of the room, so he's unwilling to come to my birthday party."

Yin Lianyi instantly came back to her senses, and her voice was a little hoarse. "What… How can Jingan go there?! He…"

Xia Chunyu's voice was filled with tears. "Grandma, no matter how busy Brother is with work, he has always celebrated my birthday with me. Why doesn't Brother care about me after Sister came back?"

Seeing that Xia Chunyu was crying, Yin Lianyi hurriedly comforted her. "Chunyu, don't cry. Since it's your birthday, you have to be happy. If Jingan wants to go to Qiao Xi's side, we can't stop him. Don't you still have so many relatives and friends to celebrate your birthday with? We don't need him here."

Everyone in the banquet hall also began to discuss. These two daughters were holding a banquet at the same time. Qiao Xi had just returned to the Xia family, yet she was already like fire and water with Xia Chunyu. She would definitely turn the Xia family upside down in the future.

At this moment, someone exclaimed, "Old Madam, Miss, outside…"

"Young Master Ji Huaizhi's car is parked outside!"

The surroundings instantly fell silent.

Ji Huaizhi! He was the heir of the Ji family! The Ji family had already confirmed that he was the next patriarch. His status in the capital had even surpassed Xia Jingan's. He actually came to attend Xia Chunyu's birthday party?

Yin Lianyi could not help but feel proud. Ji Huaizhi was here, which meant that the Ji family had acknowledged that Chunyu was the eldest daughter of the Xia family. If Ji Huaizhi liked Chunyu, the two families might even be able to form a marriage alliance. This was a great thing!

"Quick! Chunyu, quickly go welcome Young Master Ji!"

Xia Chunyu was also extremely proud and pursed her lips shyly. "Why is Young Master Ji here?! I'm not ready to see him!"

"Silly child, go quickly. Don't be rude."

The socialites watched Xia Chunyu lift her gown and run out, their faces filled with envy. Ignoring Ji Huaizhi's noble status, just his face, which was comparable to a celebrity's, was enough to move their hearts. If they could marry such a man, they would have no regrets for the rest of their lives.

Everyone followed Xia Chunyu to the door, but they did not see Ji Huaizhi. Yin Lianyi hurriedly asked, "Where's Young Master Ji?"

The attendant at the door replied with a smile, "Young Master Ji said that he has something important to attend to and left after leaving the gift."
