Lu Yanchen’s sentence seemed to be extremely weird. Even though his sentence clarified nothing, it seemed as though it clarified everything as Yan Zi’s face froze up.

As hard as she tried to conceal her emotions, veins were popping out of her head.

Su Ya and Yang Chifeng did not understand what Lu Yanchen was trying to express.

What did he mean by he was not Shi Ze?

Instinctively, they looked at Yan Zi dubiously.

She looked back at them as though she was confused as well.

Unwilling and unbothered about them, Lu Yanchen walked off after that statement that seemed like a time bomb and marched toward Shi Guang and Old Master Su.

Su Ya looked at Yan Zi and asked in a testing tone, “What did Lu Yanchen mean by that? Why did he say that he’s not Shi Ze?”

Yan Zi gave a stifled chuckle, regaining her usual composure. “No idea man! Really can’t stand how odd that man is.”

“Alright, let’s not bother with him. I’m looking for my parents with Chifeng. Will you be fine alone?” Su Ya did not press further.

“No problem.” Yan Zi waved bye to them and smiled gracefully.

She stood where she was for a while, peering at Su Ya and Yang Chifeng on the left while looking at Shi Guang and Lu Yanchen on the right. Finally, she took a glass of wine and headed for the resting lounge at the back.

Lu Yanchen was polite toward Old Master Su, and the latter too had a keen liking for Lu Yanchen. However, they did not converse much—most of the chatting was between Shi Guang and Old Master Su.

Shi Guang was honestly the type of woman that old people would like, be it her looks or character, as she overwhelmed Old Master Su with such joy that his beard was almost flipping over.

Lu Yanchen’s phone rang and he checked it out, then peered backward at the passage toward the resting lounge and caught sight of Yan Zi’s back view leaving coincidentally.

Looking at Su Qianxun, he whispered, “Someone’s waiting for you at the resting lounge behind.”

Someone’s waiting for her?

Qian Xun was stunned.

Instinctively, she thought of Lu Yanzhi as she frowned at Lu Yanchen. Even though she could still hear Shi Guang chatting with Old Master Su, the woman whose radiance was just like a blossoming flower had already lost her concentration a long time ago.

There were way too many people at the banquet, and it was impossible for somebody to keep another’s attention forever.

Before long, Lu Yanchen took Shi Guang away and Old Master Su went to chat with other people.

Qian Xun was left alone like a small boat that could not find its harbor in the middle of the ocean.

As she walked toward the resting lounge, she told herself that her only reason for meeting Lu Yanzhi was to make things clear that they should not meet ever again.

By the time she walked to the garden, she regretted it—what was there to say? Everything had already been said a long time ago.

She was frustrated and unnerved, feeling that she should not be meeting Lu Yanzhi. Right at that moment, someone walked over from the passage to the resting room.

Thinking that it was Lu Yanzhi, Qian Xun hid herself behind a flower terrace and fake decorations.

“Alright, what’s going on?” This was a voice Qian Xun was familiar with—it was her fiancé’s.

“Lu Yanchen seems to know about our relationship.” That voice was one she was familiar with as well—it was Su Ya’s friend, Yan Zi.

Why were both of them together? What was that about Lu Yanchen knowing their relationship?

What was the relationship between the two of them?
