Although this was only a small gathering, the entire Eastern District had gotten wind of it. After all, this circle was neither particularly large nor small. Tang Yu naturally found out as well, viewing this as a golden, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. After all, the Southern District was notoriously difficult to access.
Chi Le and Chi Yue hadn't held high expectations for the party, but the day before, everyone in their class, including Shen Rui, told Chi Yue they would be attending at her home. When the siblings returned that evening, they were ecstatic. Chi Le kept pulling Tang Nian aside, chattering away, while Chi Yue asked Lixi what kind of program and desserts were planned for the next day.
Lixi calmed the excited siblings and reviewed the guest list. Upon seeing Shen Rui’s name, she felt a wave of annoyance. She only hoped she wouldn't have to see Shen Mo tomorrow; she truly didn't want to encounter those three—father and sons—ever again.
