Xing Nian immediately told Jiang Shiyi the news of the party.

Jiang Shiyi was very happy when he learned that he would be able to meet Qi Anran the day after tomorrow, and he started planning what to wear to meet Qi Anran.

But Xing Nian poured cold water on him and extinguished his enthusiasm.

The party the day after tomorrow will be attended by Mu Huaichen's friends, and she will go there as Mu Huaichen's family member. Jiang Shiyi is her senior brother, and he was not invited. If she goes there rashly, it might be offensive.

Moreover, it was the first time that Jiang Shiyi met An Ran's brother Qi Anche. If he went there without an invitation, it would very likely give An Ran's brother a bad impression.

Upon hearing that he would not be able to see Qi Anran the day after tomorrow, Jiang Shiyi immediately fell silent on the other end of the phone.

Xing Nian seemed to be able to see Jiang Shiyi hanging his head with a lost look on his face.

After seeing his senior brother being Emo for a long time, Xing Nian sent him the time and place of the party.

Tell him that if you want to meet An Ran on the day of the party, you will inevitably meet her brother, so you should think about how to say it by then.

As it was getting close to getting off work, Mu Huaichen called Xing Nian and told her that he would go back to Mengyuan to pick her up later.

After hanging up the phone, Xing Nian started packing up and getting ready to go out.

Half an hour later, we arrived at the largest high-end club in the city.

At this moment, there was still a lingering afterglow in the sky, and there were few people in front of the club, making it seem particularly quiet.

After parking the car, Mu Huaichen pulled Xing Nian in, and the two took the elevator directly to the VIP area of ​​the club.

Being able to enter the VIP area of ​​this high-end club is not only a symbol of wealth, but also an extraordinary embodiment of identity and status, which cannot be simply measured by money.

After Xing Nian and Mu Huaichen entered the box, they saw that Qi Anche and Qi Anran, Lu Huaizhi, and Jiang Zelin had already arrived.

As soon as they entered, Qi Anran immediately stepped forward, took Xing Nian's arm, and pulled her aside to talk in private.

The men just get together to drink and chat.

"Where is Zhai Ziyi? Why hasn't he arrived yet?" Mu Huaichen asked.

Everyone else had a helpless expression on their faces.

Since Mr. Zhai passed away, Zhai Ziyi locked himself at home and drank every day.

The death of Mr. Zhai was a big blow to Zhai Ziyi. Although Lu Huaizhi and Qi Anche would occasionally ask Zhai Ziyi out during that period, they just hoped that he would not be immersed in sadness all the time. However, whether he could get out of the sadness still depended on himself.

After half an hour of waiting, Zhai Ziyi finally arrived.

Xing Nian looked at Zhai Ziyi who entered the box and found that Zhai Ziyi was completely different from before. At this moment, he was wearing a neat suit, and the cynical smile in his demeanor had been replaced by a deep seriousness, as if he had undergone a transformation.

"Sister Xing Nian, you also think that Brother Ziyi has changed a lot now, right?" Qi Anran asked softly, her eyes full of emotion at Zhai Ziyi's transformation.

"Yeah, the death of Mr. Zhai has had such a profound impact on him? He looks like a completely different person." Xing Nian responded with a hint of disbelief in his tone.

Qi Anran nodded and explained, "This is just one of them. Now Brother Ziyi has to shoulder the burden of the Zhai Group. He can no longer do whatever he wants like in the past. The future of the entire Zhai family rests on his shoulders."

"This is probably what is called 'growing up overnight'." Xing Nian murmured to himself, feeling a sense of respect for Zhai Ziyi's tenacity and sense of responsibility.

After Zhai Ziyi entered the room, he greeted everyone in the box.

Seeing that everyone was present, Qi Anran couldn't wait to suggest playing cards.

"Sister An Ran, with your half-baked card skills, don't get so anxious that you cry halfway through the game." Lu Huaizhi reminded her half-jokingly, trying to dispel her idea.

"Brother Huaizhi, do you underestimate me? I'm going to impress you today. My card playing skills have improved a lot!" Qi Anran was not willing to be outdone and insisted on participating.

Qi Anche stood up and pulled Qi Anran aside.

"Go away, we men can just have fun, why are you, a girl, joining in the fun?"

"No, I just play."

Qi Anran pouted, stubbornly refusing to give in. She had finally come out because her brother Huaizhi had returned to China and they were having a party. Now that she was out, of course she wanted to have a good time.

Facing Qi Anran's insistence, Lu Huaizhi adopted a gentler approach. He softly persuaded her, "Anran, today's party is not only because I'm back home, but more importantly, it's to accompany your brother Ziyi who is in a bad mood. If you want to play cards, I'll organize a special game for you next time, how about that?"

After hearing this, although Qi Anran was unwilling, she finally compromised to consider Zhai Ziyi's feelings.

Qi Anran had a trace of displeasure on his face. He walked to Xing Nian's side, picked up a bottle of drink, and took a sip. However, he felt that the taste seemed to be much lighter than before and tasteless.

Seeing this, Xing Nian smiled faintly.

"I didn't realize, An Ran, you're such a card addict."

In order to relieve Qi Anran's depression, Xing Nian had an idea and suggested: "Anran, why don't we go sing and relax in a different way."

This proposal instantly dispelled Qi Anran's loss.

Her eyes lit up and she responded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's a good idea!"

Then, Qi Anran stood up and entered the compartment inside the box, where KTV equipment had already been set up.

The two girls picked up the microphone and started singing without any restraint. Their singing and laughter intertwined, they released their inner happiness to the fullest, not caring whether they were out of tune or not, just enjoying the freedom and joy of the moment.

While singing, they ate and played, enjoying the double feast of food and music.

Perhaps Qi Anran drank too much and suddenly felt the urge to urinate. She looked around and found that the bathroom in the box was occupied. She had no choice but to say hello to Xing Nian and hurried out to find a public bathroom.

"Sister Xing Nian, I'm going to go out for a while and will be back soon." After saying that, Qi Anran disappeared outside the door, leaving only the sound of crisp footsteps echoing in the corridor.

After using the toilet, Qi Anran felt relaxed all over. After washing and wiping his hands, he planned to return to the box. As a result, when he was in the corridor, he accidentally passed by a box and heard people talking inside.

The door was ajar, and Qi Anran just felt that the voice of the person inside sounded familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.

I wanted to go closer to the door to listen to who was talking inside, but at this moment a waiter passed by and accidentally bumped into Qi Anran.

Qi Anran threw herself directly at the door, the door opened, and she fell to the ground.

Everyone in the box looked towards the door.

Qi Anran stood up, and the people in the box could see Qi Anran's appearance clearly.

"Hey, little beauty, you are lost."

When Qi Anran looked up, she saw a fat, big-eared man with a greasy face standing in front of her. His obscene smile made Qi Anran feel sick.

Qi Anran was the first to realize that these people were dangerous, so he turned around and was about to leave, but the man behind him kicked the door shut.

"Little beauty, now that you are here, why don't you stay and play with us?"
