Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In a restaurant.

Shi Boyong sat on the main seat, while Shi Qianduo and Shen Kaiqi sat on two opposing sides. The remaining two seats were for Shen Liuchun and Shen Yuxue.

“I’m sorry, dad, I’m late. ” Shen Yuxue said apologetically after she sat down.

Shi Boyong did not have any intention of reproaching her, but instead said with concern, “You don’t look so good.”

“I’m a little tired from filming recently. ” Shen Yuxue touched her face and said, but she was actually angry because Shi Qianduo had stolen her role.

“Then you should rest well.” After Shi Boyong finished speaking, he looked at his younger daughter, “I heard you’re going to act?”

“Yes, dad, I’m going to become a star like big sister.” Shi Qianduo said with an innocent face.

“You’re just messing around!” Although Shi Boyong said this, he did not object. After all, he had never approved or opposed such things. As long as he could obtain results, his reputation would be maintained. Moreover, he would be more at ease if Shi Qianduo did not hold onto the company.

“She’s not messing around. I don’t know whose bed she’s in, but she’s already snatched big sister’s role as the female lead.” Shen Kaiqi’s voice was not loud, but it was directed at Shi Boyong.

“What’s going on?” Shi Boyong’s face fell.

Shi Qianduo was about to speak when Shen Yuxue interrupted, “Dad, Kaiqi doesn’t know anything. I’m acting in a show with my sister this time. Next month, we’ll be in the same crew, so we can look out for each other.”

“You’re here. Keep an eye on her and don’t let her get into trouble.” Shi Boyong nodded his head.

“Don’t worry, dad. I’ll take care of little sister. ” As Shen Yuxue spoke, she gave Shi Qianduo a comforting look.

Shi Qianduo immediately returned a grateful smile, but her hand that was holding her chopsticks slowly tightened. Shen Yuxue had always been like a caring sister, but after so many things had happened, Shi Qianduo was not stupid enough to think that Shen Yuxue was not aware of them! However, Shen Liuchun and her two daughters’ masks were too well-hidden, so she did not dare to let her guard down before they were removed.

“By the way, Boyong, it’s Kaiqi and her sister’s birthday tomorrow. Where’s Yuxue? She’s busy and can’t come back home, so I was thinking of making Kaiqi happy at home. After all, Kaiqi is getting married, and she needs to have her own social circle.” Shen Liuchun changed the topic.

“Sure, but we’ll do it in a low-key manner.” Shi Boyong warned.

“Don’t worry,” Shen Liuchun replied.

“Thanks, dad!” Shen Kaiqi said happily. Then, she looked at Shen liuchun.”Mom, I’ll give you the name list. Zisheng said that he’ll formally introduce me to his friends this time.”

“Zisheng’s friends are all political and business standouts. You’ll have to dress up well…” Shen Liuchun said with a smile.

During the meal, they were discussing this. Shi Qianduo ate quietly and greeted everyone after the meal before returning to her room.

The next day, Shen Kaiqi’s birthday party officially started!

Shi Qianduo got dressed and walked out of the room. She went down the stairs.

In the middle of the hall on the first floor, Tao Zisheng was confessing to Shen Kaiqi in a formal white suit.

“The first time I saw you, you were wearing a white dress, standing in the middle of the rose bushes, you looked more beautiful than the flowers. At that moment, I understood what it meant to be moved…”

At this moment, Shi Qianduo was standing on the stairs, her fingers curled up slightly. First time? So they had been together for a few years without any love, and Tao Zisheng was just playing with her?

Shi Qianduo felt like there was a thorn in her heart. Perhaps only the people you cared about could hurt you. She had never been humble in her feelings for you over the years. She still felt pain in her heart, but more than that, she was mocking herself. She was really blind.

“Qianduo!” Suddenly, an arm reached out from behind her. It was Zhou Ting.

“They’re a perfect match!” Zhou Ting looked in Tao Zisheng and Shen Kaiqi’s direction with disdain.

At that moment, Shen Kaiqi was moved to tears by Tao Zisheng’s affectionate confession.

“Don’t cry. My heart breaks when I see you cry. I swear that no matter what happens in the future, be it illness, pain, poverty, I will always be by your side, love you, and protect you until death separates us. ”

Shi Qianduo’s pink lips moved slightly as she spoke softly. As soon as she finished speaking, Tao Zisheng actually said the same thing to Shen Kaiqi, without missing a single word.

Zhou Ting looked at Shi Qianduo and exclaimed, “Have you learned mind-reading?”

“You changed your fiancée, but you didn’t even change your lines. Tsk, I was actually a little sad just now. I really… Fed myself to the dogs.” Shi Qianduo’s smile was bright and sarcastic.
