She doesn't want to pretend anymore

"He was kicked off because of his own fault. You and he won't make the same mistake, so don't worry."

In the business of gambling on stones, the most taboo thing is greed.

The third senior brother failed because of greed.

Cao Yuqing walked towards Manshu and Yan Zhan, holding a glass of fruit wine.

She drank two glasses of wine and her face turned red before she mustered up the courage to come over.

"Mr. Yan, Sister Manshu."

Cao Yuqing was holding a glass of wine in her hand, which she prepared for Yan Zhan.

She handed it over and looked at Manshu again: "I'm sorry, Sister Manshu is not yet an adult, so I didn't give her any wine."

"No problem." Yan Zhan didn't reach out to take it. "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Cao. I don't drink."

Cao Yuqing's hand stopped in mid-air, and she barely pulled the corners of her lips: "It's okay, Mr. Yan pays attention to his health, so it's right for him not to drink."

"I don't usually drink, but today is my 80th birthday, so I want to drink a little to celebrate the occasion."

Eighty years is already a long life, and Mr. Zhu seems to be in good health. This birthday banquet can be considered a wedding banquet.

"Miss Cao, please do as you please." Yan Zhan frowned slightly and took Manshu to another sofa.

This shows that he is determined to keep a distance from Cao Yuqing.

Cao Yuqing's face changed slightly. She wanted to say something, but she didn't have the courage to chase after him. She could only bite her lip and take a big gulp of wine.

Liu Hong followed her and saw that she was unhappy, so he asked her questions repeatedly.

Cao Yuqing was a little depressed and said, "I'm just a little curious about how Sister Manshu caught the eye of Master Zhu. I tried so hard at the beginning, but Master Zhu still said that he would no longer accept disciples."

"Liu Hong, do you think I don't have any talent for gambling on stones? That's why Master Zhu doesn't like me and says he won't accept me as a disciple?"

She drank some wine, felt a little dizzy, and walked a little unsteadily.

When Liu Hong saw that she was wearing high heels, he immediately held her, fearing that she would fall.

When she heard her say that Mr. Zhu did not accept her but accepted Manshu, her eyes became gloomy again.

"Yuqing, don't underestimate yourself. It's definitely not your fault. I'll go find out about that little girl named Manshu. She better be really talented, otherwise..."

Liu Hong clenched the wine glass tightly.

He snatched the glass of wine that Cao Yuqing was holding and almost crushed it.

He looked towards Manshu, with a hint of malice in his eyes.

Manshu seemed to sense something and looked over there.

When she met Liu Hong's eyes, she frowned. These eyes looked very malicious.

However, after experiencing such vicious people like Yan Siyu and Gu Zimo, this kind of look no longer scares her.

Perhaps noticing Manshu's gaze, Liu Hong smiled at her in a very vicious way.

This smile is actually a bit creepy.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that she was staring in one direction without moving, Yan Zhan followed her gaze.

"Nothing." Manshu shook his head.

As soon as they sat down, some people came up to greet them. Some came for Yan Zhan, and some came for Manshu.

Mr. Zhu found it a little funny to see that the younger generation had almost surrounded Manshu and were no longer afraid of Yan Zhan, a walking refrigerator.

After all, he was soft-hearted towards his little disciple, and Master Zhu waved at her.

"Manshu, come here."

When Mr. Yan called out, Manshu had no choice but to stand up.

When she stood up, Yan Zhan also stood up.

The few young people were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

"Why do I feel that Boss Yan keeps a close eye on this Junior Sister?"

"It seems like Boss Yan gets along really well with her. I envy her for being able to become Boss Yan's junior sister!"

"Come on, she's just being nice now. If she gets involved with Boss Yan, do you believe that Boss Yan will turn his back on his relatives in a blink of an eye?"
