Someone knocked on the door.

“Come in.”

It was Shi Xu who entered.

“Brother, why are you looking for me?” Shi Xi locked her phone and placed it on the table.

“Come with me to Midsummer Lightyear tomorrow to attend a banquet,” Shi Xu said.

“All, but I’m going to Yanjing tomorrow.” Shi Xi was glad that she had made her decision long ago.

Shi Xu frowned as if he was thinking about something.

“Let Ning Yu accompany you.” Shi Xi blinked.

“She has a cold personality and doesn’t like to attend banquets.” Shi Xu rejected Shi Xi’s suggestion.

“Then let Tao Tao accompany you. Oh right, isn’t Tao Tao at home?” Shi Xi remembered that she had not seen Tao Yuxuan when she returned home.

“She went to keep an eye on the expansion of factories in other places.”

Shi Xi had not expected Tao Yuxuan to actually be up to business.

You really can’t judge a book by its cover.

“Then you can go by yourself.” Shi Xi felt no psychological burden at all.

“It’s the Sheng family’s banquet,” Shi Xu added. “Uncle Sheng has been asking me to bring you to it.”

“Uncle Sheng?” Shi Xi subconsciously thought of how she had knocked off the other party’s wig back then.

“Can’t you go to Yanjing a day later?” Shi Xu asked.

“You can ask Ning Yu to go with you to the banquet. Although Ning Yu looks cold, she won’t run away when there’s trouble. She and Sheng Yan knew each other before, so they should be able to talk.”

Shi Xu stared at Shi Xi for a while.

Shi Xi was puzzled. “What’s wrong? Is there something on my face?”

“I was just thinking, you’ve always been smart and quick-witted, why are you so muddle-headed about your own marriage?” Shi Xu’s voice was calm.

“Hmm?” Shi Xi did not react in time.

“Uncle Sheng and Aunt Sheng are very fond of you,” Shi Xu said. “Our families are well-matched and we know each other very well. If you marry into the Sheng family, you will definitely be very happy in the future.”

Shi Xi knew what Shi Xu meant.

“Will you be happy just because you’re of equal status and know each other well?” Shi Xi lowered her eyes slightly. “Sheng Yan and I don’t have any emotional foundation. Even if we were together, we will only resent each other.”

At this point, Shi Xu’s head hurt again. “You youngsters…”

“Isn’t Big Brother a young man? Besides, Dad and Mom introduced you to so many girls of similar social status back then, but you didn’t marry them!” Shi Xi retorted.

“Don’t blame me.”

“Only state officials are allowed to set fires!” Shi Xi snorted softly.

“Can’t you leave yourself a way out? You’re still young,” Shi Xu said. “The Sheng family won’t rush you into marriage. We’re just trying to get to know each other better.”

“All! You want me to hang Sheng Yan?” Shi Xi said in surprise.

“What do you mean by hanging?” Shi Xu corrected. “It’s just a friendly call.”

Shi Xi shook her head. “The meaning is the same. I don’t agree.”

She finally managed to escape from the plot.

She didn’t want to go back to the plot again!

Seeing that things didn’t work out, Shi Xu had no choice but to give up.

“Brother, you can bring Ning Yu along. She’s on good terms with Sheng Yan.” Shi Xi added, “Before this, Sheng Yan even asked me about Ning Yu. It seems like he likes Ning Yu.”

“Really?” Shi Xu asked.

Shi Xi immediately nodded.

These two were a match made in heaven!!

They had to be together!!

Shi Xu pondered and said, “I’ll think about it again.”

“What’s there to think about? Ning Yu is also from our family. Logically speaking, the original marriage contract was between Ning Yu and Sheng Yan!” Shi Xi began to fan the flames..
