She was fired after she refused to be the CEO's dog licker.

After Zhou Pinzhi left, Lin Xixi entered the office with a gloomy look and stayed there all morning.

I guess she fell into Zhou Pinzhi's trick and was in trouble right now. But I think her trick was just to use this matter to negotiate with Zhou Hanzhi, and finally persuade President Zhou Da to risk the whole family. Bu Wei took her to the birthday party.

Not something I should worry about.

But what I never expected was that not long after, Lin Xixi actually knocked on my office door.

The little girl seemed to have cried, her eyes were red, and with that face that I felt pity for, it was really easy for people to feel protective.

No wonder.

"Sister Nan Xu, I really don't know what to do now," Lin Xixi lowered her eyes and said cautiously, "Can you help me?"

I didn't intend to beat around the bush and said straight to the point: "If you are here just for the invitation, I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do."

Lin Xixi probably didn't expect me to be so straightforward. After looking at me blankly for two seconds, she said aggrievedly: "But Sister Nanxu, do you think this is reasonable? As Han Zhi's other half, Auntie invited so many people to her birthday. Man, even you... this project partner is on the list, but I am not the only one. Does this make sense? "

I looked at Lin Xixi in surprise. I couldn't find the right words for a while, so I suppressed my emotions and said, "Manager Lin is right. The Zhou family cares about face the most. There is indeed something wrong with this arrangement. How about going to talk to Manager Lin again?" Mr. Zhou, please discuss it?”

When Zhou Hanzhi was mentioned, Lin Xixi seemed to be choked suddenly. She avoided my eyes and stammered: "Hanzhi is in a high position and I don't want to embarrass him with this matter."

He is as considerate as ever.

I didn’t want to embarrass Zhou Hanzhi, but he decided to come to me.

Most people are just afraid that they can’t do it.

"Sister Nan Xu, do you think this is a good idea?" Lin Xixi saw that I didn't say anything, and suggested: "When you go to the banquet tomorrow night, I will follow you. In fact, I am thinking about you."

I raised my eyelids: "Oh?"

"Think about it, there were so many rumors on the Internet a while ago, and the Zhou family is a well-known person. Mrs. Zhou's birthday is a top-notch event. Reporters will inevitably have to report it again," Lin Xixi glanced at me and said, "My real girlfriend didn't show up, but Sister Nanxu, you were included in the invitation. Doesn't this put you in hot water?"

I almost laughed out of anger. It turned out that Lin Xixi didn't come to beg me, but came to teach me a lesson.

"So, I still have to thank Manager Lin?"

Lin Xixi smiled brightly: "Sister Nan Xu is too polite, don't worry, tomorrow night..."

"Manager Lin," I put away the faint smile on my face, interrupted Lin Xixi and said seriously, "I'm afraid I can't help you with this matter. Think about it, what kind of place is the Zhou family's old house? Can they allow an unidentified person to enter casually?"

After hearing the words "no identity", Lin Xixi couldn't hold back the smile on her face. She looked at me unwillingly, and I looked at her calmly. Our eyes met in the air. After a few seconds, , Lin Xixi looked away dissatisfied, then turned and left.

After Lin Xixi left, I immediately called You He and told him about Zhou Pinzhi coming to deliver the invitation.

"Xuxu, do you want to think about it again? So far, no one knows the area and structure of the Zhou family's old house. If you go there alone, I'm afraid..."

I knew You He's concerns and said calmly: "They have already made a move, so I have no reason not to answer it. By the way, do you think that something as important as the black box will be in the Zhou family's old house?"

"Xuxu, leave this matter to me," Youhe heard my thoughts and said urgently, "You must not act rashly."

I didn’t want You He to worry, so I answered and then cut off the line.

Wu Ling was quite surprised when he learned the news: "When Mrs. Zhou came to deliver the invitation, she said that as a friend, she became a partner of the invitation project when she got to Zhou Pinzhi. The Zhou family always does things in such a different way. A set?”

"It doesn't matter, it's just a dinner party."

"Yuan Tianye secretly asked me about this matter, but this guy stopped making any move after asking. It's really not like his style."

It's best if there is no movement. I don't want to injure other people before Mrs. Zhou's thoughts are clear.

Time flew by and the next night came. After dressing up simply, I drove to the old house of the Zhou family that I had longed for.

The antique door looks not much different from an ordinary classical courtyard. The only difference is that there are many people surrounding the door, many of whom are dignitaries who rarely show up.

It has the same low-key style, but at a glance, people can think of the words noble and luxurious.

I calmed down and walked to the front door with the invitation in hand. The receptionist was slightly startled when he saw my name and said politely: "It turns out to be Miss Meng. Please come inside."

After he finished speaking, he specially called a security guard to lead the way for me: "There is still some distance between the main entrance and the banquet hall. Let the security guard lead the way for you."

I thanked him and followed the security guard forward.

Pavilions, rockeries and strange rocks, it was only when I entered the Zhou family's old house that I realized what a wealthy mansion was. Every step I took, my heart sank a little.

At this moment, a familiar crisp voice came into my ears: "Sister, why are you here?"

I turned around and saw Yuan Tianye in formal attire.

Yuan Tianye walked up to me quickly, glanced at the security guard beside me, and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Ballroom."

"The banquet hall is on the right," Yuan Tianye glanced at the security guard suspiciously and said, "Please step aside first."

The security guard looked at me hesitantly, hesitated for two seconds, and then politely stepped back.

"Is there any problem?" I looked at Yuan Tianye doubtfully and asked.

"It's nothing, I'm just curious about how a security guard doesn't know the way." Yuan Tianye looked at me with a smile, "My brother should lead the way."

Five minutes later, Yuan Tianye took me into the banquet hall. At a glance, I saw that they were all dignitaries, and in the middle of these people was none other than today's protagonist, Shen Hualan.

I didn't see Zhou Hanzhi and the old lady of the Zhou family.

Shen Hualan also saw me, and after saying hello to everyone, she walked over affectionately.

"Xuxu, I knew you wouldn't let Auntie down," she enthusiastically held my hand and explained, "Hanzhi and the old lady are still in the study, and they will be down in a moment."

I calmly withdrew my hand, handed over the prepared gift, and said politely and distantly: "Auntie, happy birthday."

"Xu Xu, you are so polite," Shen Hualan said politely while accepting the gift, "Auntie will be very satisfied if you can come."

At this moment, the receptionist's report reached my ears through the intercom: "Mr. Feng and his sister-in-law are here to congratulate me."

It turns out that Feng Wenzhuo was also invited tonight.

However, just as everyone looked towards the entrance of the main hall at the same time, I saw Lin Xixi beside Feng Wenting.

"See you tomorrow,"
