Chapter 87
Ning Xu fulfilled his promise.

Before, he was always wandering around Mingdai, but whenever Mingdai left the classroom of Class [-], he could catch a glimpse of him nearby, either passing by by chance, or talking to someone...all pretending to be unintentional, but in fact they had ulterior motives.

But this time Mingdai's words probably really touched his self-esteem, and in the next two or three days, Mingdai never saw him again.

Ming Dai didn't pay much attention to this either.

Because for her, besides the wrapping up of Princess Pearl in "A Generation of Emperors" this week, there is another more important thing... Xia Ling's birthday is coming!
Xia Ling was sick and took a year off from school when she was a child, and she just turned 19 this year.

As the future heir of the Xia family, her birthday is held grandly every year, with crowds of dignitaries and guests.

Many guests were not what Xia Ling wanted to invite, but there was no way. Her birthday party had already surpassed its original meaning and became an alternative social occasion for Xia's family. Even Xia Ling couldn't avoid it.

However, Xia Ling's 19th birthday party this year was a little different——

The location of the birthday party was chosen at the Xia family's manor on the outskirts of the city, and the time was Friday night.

The invitations for the banquet were sent out early, and when the sky was getting dark, the flowing luxury cars went up the mountain road, the lights along the road were lit up, and the white jade-like buildings were shining like a glazed jade palace under the golden light.

In the bedroom on the third floor of the main building of the manor, Ming Dai, who was wearing a school uniform, was lying on the window and looking out. She happened to be able to see the main entrance of the manor. One by one the guests got out of the luxury cars and entered the building one after another.

In the pocket of her coat, a piece of white cardboard was exposed, which was the birthday invitation letter handwritten by Xia Ling himself.

"Daddy, why are you still here?"

Xia Ling's voice came from behind Ming Dai.

Ming Dai looked back, and suddenly she was surprised:

"Didn't you change your dress?"

Just now when Ming Dai saw the guests at the door, they were all dressed in splendid clothes, compared to the red carpet ceremonies in the entertainment industry, they were not too shy.

However, the Xia Ling in front of him was supposed to be the protagonist of today's banquet, but he was wearing the school uniform of No. [-] Middle School, and his face was so clean that there was no makeup on his face.

Xia Ling saw Ming Dai's mouth open into an "O" shape in surprise, chuckled, and blinked at her deliberately:
"Didn't I tell you? The dress code I wrote on the invitations of my classmates today is the school uniform! We are all students, and not all students in No. [-] Middle School are rich. Why worry about my birthday party?" What about the choice of dress? Why don’t everyone wear school uniforms!”

Listening to Xia Ling's explanation, it still makes sense.

But Ming Dai knew it well: No, Xia Ling deliberately arranged this way, all because of her!
At first, Ming Dai was a little hesitant about coming to this birthday party.

This banquet was too grand, which ran counter to her original intention of keeping a low profile in school until graduation.

Especially for the banquet held by the Xia family tonight, people from the Gu family will definitely be there, Ning Xu who just had a grudge with her, and people like Tang Xue will most likely be there.

At that time, it is inevitable that they will run into them and cause unnecessary trouble.

It's just that the words of refusal came to his lips, and he couldn't say anything.

This is Xia Ling's birthday party, a birthday party once a year, the only invitation card that Xia Ling personally handwritten, Xia Ling's expectation when he sent the invitation card excitedly... How could Ming Dai ignore these things and ran to talk to Xia Ling? Ling said sorry and couldn't come?

When Ming Dai was in a dilemma, Xia Ling seemed to understand her thoughts, and told Ming Dai the next day that besides her, many other students from No. [-] Middle School were invited to the banquet.

For this reason, Xia Ling specially ordered people to divide the banquet hall into a hall and a small hall.In the hall are the guests invited by the parents of the Xia family, mainly dignitaries and celebrities, business partners of the Xia family, etc., while in the small hall are all students from No. [-] Middle School.

On the day when Ming Dai was told about this, Xia Ling's tone was relaxed and casual:
"I don't want my birthday party to become a social place for adults. Of course, I have to invite my guests according to my heart."

But in fact, where did Xia Ling have any close friends at school, most of them avoided her because of Xia Ling's aloofness.

The classmates who are a little familiar with Xia Ling, except for Gu Lingsi and Ning Xu, are just friends who have spoken to her by chance, not really close.

Only Ming Dai.

Just like Xia Ling is Ming Dai's only friend at school, Ming Dai is also Xia Ling's only friend at school.

So Xia Ling said: "You must come! If even your best friend doesn't come, then what's the point of my birthday party?"

So Ming Dai came and stood here.

Now, I heard Xia Ling tell her that the dress codes on the invitations of the students were school uniforms.

Not to mention that Xia Ling, who was supposed to have her birthday tomorrow, knew that Ming Dai had to work, so she deliberately arranged her birthday party for tonight...

This kind of unique, appropriate and meticulous care made Ming Dai's heart feel as if soaked in hot water, sour and swollen.

Ming Dai looked at Xia Ling silently, unable to speak for a long time.

It seems that casually saying "thank you" is a contempt for Xia Ling's cherished friendship.

Xia Ling also understood Ming Dai's meaning very well.

The two clearly knew each other for a short time, but they had a tacit understanding so that they could understand each other's points at any time.

"Don't cry, I don't want to see tears on my birthday!"

"Who said I was going to cry."

Mingdai suppressed her sore nose, walked over, and hugged Xia Ling,

"Then let me say happy birthday to you before everyone else."

Xia Ling smiled happily.

"Honey, are you ready?"

After the gentle female voice sounded, the door was knocked lightly twice.

Xia Ling turned towards the door: "Please come in!"

Afterwards, a lady in a gentle pale pink dress came in. Her posture was slim and her face was stretched. She was not considered top-notch beautiful, but that elegant and relaxed nobility was hard to learn no matter what.

It's Xia Ling's mother, Ms. Ling Xiu.

Ms. Ling is a professor in the History Department of Yanda University and a well-known restorer of cultural relics. She has a good appreciation of calligraphy, paintings and antiques.

In the afternoon, Ming Dai accompanied Xia Ling to take two classes off, and arrived at the manor ahead of time to prepare for the birthday party. She had already met this Ms. Ling at that time.

After Ms. Ling learned that Ming Dai was Xia Ling's friend at school, she was surprised at first, and then pleasantly surprised. She didn't question at all why her precious daughter had such an ordinary friend at school, and her attitude towards Ming Dai was so good. Ming Dai treats her like a national treasure.

Ming Dai was overwhelmed by flattery, but she couldn't get rid of her restraint in front of Ms. Ling.

Seeing her come in, he put his hands in front of him involuntarily, his body tensed.
