“You knew that today was Grandfather’s birthday party. You deliberately dressed so plainly just to embarrass me, didn’t you?”

Luo Yiyi gritted her teeth and glared at Shen Jiao as if saying so would push all the blame onto Shen Jiao, and she wouldn’t have to bear any blame.

“You’re such a scheming woman.”

Shen Jiao raised her eyebrows. She was amused by Luo Yiyi’s bandit logic.

“If you have a problem with your brain, then go to the hospital for treatment. You mean you didn’t know that today was Grandfather’s birthday party, right?”

Luo Yiyi choked for a moment. She realized that it wouldn’t be to her benefit if she were to fight with Shen Jiao in public. She took a deep breath to suppress her temper and decided to change her clothes to avoid the limelight.

She wanted to hold Shen Jiao’s hand and stand up, but she didn’t expect Shen Jiao to pull her hand back as soon as she put her hand on Shen Jiao’s.

Luo Yiyi missed and fell to the ground again.

The surrounding laughter became louder.

“Shen Jiao, what have you just done?!”

Luo Yiyi’s face turned red. She was about to go crazy.

“I’m sorry, my hands are a little slippery. You’d better get up by yourself.” Shen Jiao clapped her hands and left calmly.

She was not a saint. She was initially trying to help Luo Yiyi out of kindness for Luo Yu’s sake. Since Luo Yiyi was so ungrateful, there would not be a second time.

Luo Yiyi got up from the ground using both her hands and feet. During this time, she fell twice and twisted her ankle. She used a lot of strength to rush to the bathroom.

“Ah! Shen Jiao, you b*tch!” Luo Yiyi couldn’t help but splash the water in the sink everywhere and scream crazily.

She knew that she must have become a joke in the eyes of the people outside, and this was caused by Shen Jiao.

Luo Yiyi lowered her eyes, and her gaze was extremely ferocious. “Shen Jiao, I won’t let you off. One day, I’ll settle all my scores with you.”

After this small episode, the banquet outside was still going on as usual.

When Old Master Luo went up on stage to give a speech, everyone hypocritically praised him. It was basically a gift-giving session.

At a banquet like this, Old Master Luo received all kinds of valuable treasures, as well as gifts of friendship, status, and reputation.

It was the younger generation’s turn to present gifts. Luo Yiyi was the first to walk out. She had just made a fool of herself and was resolved to make a comeback in the gift-giving segment.

“Grandpa, this is a gift from me to you. I wish you a blessed long life.”

Luo Yiyi clapped her hands, and two of her subordinates walked in with a large jade-green exquisite collection box. She personally went forward to open it. Inside was a blue and white porcelain vase with exquisite carvings and fine glaze.

The moment the box was opened, everyone gasped in admiration.

“This blue and white porcelain vase looks exquisitely made. It looks quite old. It must be an antique.”

Seeing this, Luo Lan continued.

“This is the five-colored blue and white porcelain that was popular in the Qing dynasty, and it was made in Jingde Town. Yiyi heard that you were studying antiques, especially blue and white porcelain from the Ming and Qing dynasties. I spent a lot of effort to get someone to search for it and get it for you.”

After this round of flattery, Old Master Luo looked at Luo Yiyi with admiration..
