Su Zi opened the curtain and came in. She happened to see Fang Xu looking at the door in a daze, and immediately asked, "What is Madam thinking about?"

"It's nothing important." Fang Xu came back to his senses and looked back at her with a smile, "Have you sent out all the invitations?"

As soon as the word "invitation" was mentioned, Su Zi's originally kind face suddenly darkened, "I'm incompetent, Madam, please punish me."

Hearing this, the smile on Fang Xu's face faded a little, and he looked at her quietly, "What happened?"

Su Zi bit his lower lip, with an angry look on his face, "I don't know where King Runan got the news about the banquet in our house. He told various aristocratic families that anyone who has good relations with our house will be... Go against him.”

As he spoke, Su Zi's face became worse and worse, "The family may appear to be noble on the surface, but in fact they are all about business. King Runan plays an important role in the business world, and no one wants to rush to get into trouble with him. Send out invitations." Most of the posts were returned.”

"Play this trick with me." Fang Xu sneered, tapping Tang Pozi with his fingertips, and whispered, "This is disgusting and you want to suppress me if I don't succeed."

"This slave is really filled with hatred!" Su Zi sighed heavily, with a helpless look on his face, "Fortunately, he is a relative of the emperor, so I can't do anything to him!"

Fang Xu weighed it up and had an idea in his mind.

"Madam...if the young lady's hairstyle is ruined because of him..." Su Zi paused, lowered his head, and did not dare to say any more.

"He doesn't have the ability to reach the sky yet." Fang Xu stared with a calm expression, "Just prepare as previously discussed. There is no need to reduce the tables and chairs."

"...Yes." Su Zi agreed, and immediately glanced at Fang Xu secretly, but hesitated to speak.

Fang Xu noticed her strange look and said softly, "Why are you hesitating? If you have something to say, just say it."

"Master Shen, can you use a slave to send a message?" Su Zi said angrily and whispered, "Master Shen is so close to our house, he will definitely give face to Madam."

The man's handsome face appeared in his mind. Fang Xu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that the tips of his ears were a little hot. He said slowly, "Bring me the post, I will write it myself."

"Yes."

Shen family

The man was sitting in the study, staring blankly at the letters on the table. Every time he thought of the scene that day, his heart ached so much that he couldn't calm down and think about things.

He was so confused all day that even the young emperor noticed something strange about him and allowed him to rest for three days to calm down his emotions.

"Aji."

His mother's voice sounded outside the door, and Shen Ji rolled his eyes and remained silent.

The next moment, the door was gently pushed open, and Mother Shen poked her head in. Seeing that her son was in a daze again, she immediately became angry and said, "You are in there, why didn't you even say a word?"

Shen Ji held his forehead, looked coldly, and said lightly, "Why are you here when you are free?"

When Mother Shen heard this, her expression became even worse, she frowned and asked, "What, why can't I come here?"

Shen Ji slowly closed his eyes, with a tired look on his face, and whispered, "My son doesn't mean this."

Mother Shen stepped into the house and looked at him carefully, "Are you hiding from mother on purpose?"

Shen Ji was helpless, but could not keep a cold face. He could only explain patiently, "No son."

"Since you didn't hide, just pack yourself up and go to Qinxin Lake with Sisi." Shen's mother looked disgusted and scolded, "You've been like a boring gourd all day long, either in the bedroom or in the study. You are Does it grow in these two places?"

Shen Ji frowned and whispered, "She has hands, feet and a head, and she can't be lost. Why does she have to have her son accompany her?"

"Look at your stupid head!" Mother Shen slapped her thigh, showing displeasure, "If you don't hurry up, when will your father and I have a grandson? We can't let the Shen family lose its roots with you. Bar?"

<divclass="contentadv">Mother Shen glanced at him, hating his lack of progress, "Don't look at your father as a normal person, but he is actually very worried."

Shen Ji lowered his eyes and said in a colder tone, "My son has no intention of this, so there is no need for you and me to press him every step of the way."

"Absurd!" Mother Shen was extremely angry and said loudly, "At this age, we just want a fat and white grandson. What's wrong with that?"

Shen Ji slowly raised his head and said with a serious face, "If there is only one grandson missing in the family, why don't I call you grandpa and grandma instead."

"Aji!" Mother Shen slapped the table and pointed at him with trembling fingertips, "Do you want to make your mother angry to death?"

Shen Ji's expression was calm and there was no trace of panic at all, "My son is unfilial and cannot fulfill his parents' wishes, so I have to lower myself to become a grandson."

Mother Shen's eyes darkened with anger, and she fell back on the stool, breathing heavily, "Give me a reason. What is so bad about Sisi that makes you resist so much?"

"The appearance is wrong, the name is wrong, and the family background is wrong."

Shen Ji gave the answer straightforwardly without any hesitation.

Mother Shen was so angry that she couldn't speak. She could only look at him with wide eyes, her eyes burning.

"Sir...Sir!" Wen Mo Fengfeng pushed the door open and walked in. He staggered a few steps and almost fell at Shen Ji's feet. He hurriedly put down the post in his hand, breathing unsteadily, "Please...invite!"

"I don't want to look at it." Shen Ji closed his eyes and said calmly, "I refuse."

"Sir, you must see this!" Wen Mo maintained his posture and spoke swornly, "Although there is no family name written on the face, I will guarantee it with my life. If you refuse this invitation, I will wait until tomorrow night. You’ll slap yourself in the face!”

Shen Ji slowly raised his eyes and stared at him without saying a word, then raised his hand to take the invitation.

Wen Mo's eyes sparkled, unable to suppress the excitement in his heart, as he stared at his husband.

Mother Shen couldn't figure it out. Her eyes wandered between the master and the servant, and a strange color flashed in her eyes.

Shen Ji slowly unfolded the invitation, his eyes fell on Juan Xiu's handwriting, and his frown suddenly relaxed.

——Master Shen, your words are like your face. Tomorrow, my little girl will have hairpins and a banquet will be held at your house. I sincerely hope to keep the appointment.

The content was very brief, but Shen Ji happened to think of the man sitting in front of the case, his head slightly lowered, holding a pen and thinking.

Holding the invitation card with his fingertips, Shen Ji raised his eyes and looked at Wen Mo, showing his first smile in the past few days, "Good boy, I raised you for nothing."

The corners of Shen Ji's lips rose, unable to hide his excitement. The image of a woman appeared in his mind again, but there was no pain at all, only excitement.

Looking at her son who was just a dead tree, Shen's mother was distracted for a moment.

"I knew... it wouldn't end so easily." Shen Ji put the invitation in his arms and rushed out like a young boy.

Wen Mo felt relieved to see him alive again, "Sir, wait a minute, little one!"

"stop."

Wen Mo just wanted to catch up, but was tripped by the voice behind him. His body shook suddenly, and he slowly looked back and met Shen's mother's condensed gaze.
