Chapter 17. Chapter 17
At 07:30, the birthday party started on time.

Song Lili and Song Xueer straightened their attire, raised dignified smiles on their faces, and stepped into the hall from the door, facing the baptism of the eyes of all the upper echelons of the imperial capital.

This feeling makes both mother and daughter enjoy it very much.

Standing still in front of the stage, Song Xueer began to look for something in the crowd.

From seven o'clock until now, she hadn't seen Mu Chengxi. She wondered if he came in when she was going to the bathroom, so she didn't run into him.

But looking around in the crowd, there was no such eye-catching figure.

Her expression became a little disappointed, but her parents are speaking on the stage now, so she can only ask them to understand when they come down.

Lu Xingyi wasn't in the mood to listen to the casual conversation between the couple on the stage, so he and Chen Sutong quietly walked to the back of the hall, and took two pieces of cake to eat.

"By the way, Xingyi," Chen Sutong ate a whole piece of cake in one gulp, leaving some chocolate stains on his lips, looking very cute, "You haven't told me about the last time at Muchengxi's house."

Lu Xingyi took out a napkin and wiped away the informal "evidence" from her mouth.

"I'm also very confused." She told Chen Sutong honestly, "There have been a lot of announcements recently. I fell asleep when I got home in the evening, and when I woke up, I turned into a hairy white dumpling. As for the Muchengxi family, I was hungry and thought about it." I went to rub a meal, but I didn't expect to be taken back by him to raise him."

"My God, have you read too many novels and become the heroine of novels! How come you still wear cats?"

Lu Xingyi shook his head, she didn't know, and she was helpless.

"Wait," Chen Sutong suddenly thought, "Why is the villa in the west of Namu City right next to you?!"

"If I had known that he was next door to me, I wouldn't have gone to his house for dinner."

"The fate of the two of you is too deep. After such a long time, you have met again, but why can't you meet a normal person? It has to be Mu Chengxi who is so carefree, hey."

"Nie Yuan." Lu Xingyi said helplessly, eating a spoonful of cake to stabilize his mood.

"Did you meet a few women during your stay at home? Recently, rumors of his scandal have spread again. You eat and drink at his house every night. Have you seen the live broadcast?" Chen Sutong smiled gossipingly, The closer they got, the impatient mood could no longer be suppressed.

Lu Xingyi pushed her lightly: "No, every time a woman comes to the door, he only asks the housekeeper to pay her, and then drives her away."

"Um???"

Chen Sutong was stunned, this didn't match the rumors in Mu Chengxi.

Lu Xingyi took a bite of the cake, and as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Mu Chengxi walking in from the door.

The suit he was wearing was the same as the one he usually wears at get off work. He probably came here just after getting off work without changing his clothes. It could be seen that he didn't attach much importance to the banquet.

The handmade leather shoes stepped on the red carpet, and the guests standing in the back rows had noticed him, and they all turned their heads and nodded to him.

He was talking about why he came here.

But fortunately, he didn't become a dumpling today, so he probably doesn't remember himself either.

Lu Xingyi pretended not to notice, and continued to finish the small cake in his hand.

Not long after Mu Chengxi arrived at the scene, he completely stole the limelight from the two on stage. They all wanted to go up to say hello to him, and no one cared about his birthday anymore.

Of course, Song Xueer also saw Mu Chengxi, and ran to him through the crowd in the blink of an eye.

"Mr. Mu, you are finally here."

Mu Chengxi frowned when he saw a woman appearing out of nowhere.

Cui Han beside him immediately stepped forward and stood between the two of them, keeping Song Xueer and President Mu at a distance.
