Chapter 337: When the Birthday Banquet Begins (1)
Zheng Yanan was the youngest child of the Zheng family. Because she was the youngest, everyone at home spoiled her, which also allowed her to develop the arrogant temperament of those petite young ladies.
And the Zheng family’s old man knew that tonight’s birthday banquet was Elder Liu’s tenth birthday banquet for his granddaughter. He thought about it and asked his sons and daughters-in-law to bring the younger ones with them.
It was Zheng Yannan’s first time attending such a luxurious party with her parents. She came down from the front door of Victoria and looked at the magnificent decorations. She said to her parents with some envy, “Dad, Mom, why didn’t you hold a birthday party for me on my tenth birthday?”
Zheng Yannan was a little envious of the girl who was celebrating her birthday today.
Zheng Yanan’s words made her parents’ faces look awkward. Although the Zheng family was one of the top aristocratic families in S City, their family background was not ordinary. However, they were also part of the Zheng family. These juniors relied on their salaries and the stratification that the family gave each year. Compared to ordinary people, they were definitely incomparable. However, compared to Elder Liu, their little bit of money was nothing. Moreover, the Victoria hotel was out of their range.
“Nan Nan, you are a big girl now. When you speak and do things, you should pay attention to propriety. Especially when you go in later, don’t talk too much, okay?” Huang Yujuan looked at her husband’s gloomy face. She was afraid that her husband would be angry at her daughter, she quickly came out to smooth things over.
Zheng Yuan’s face looked a little better after listening to his wife’s words. However, he still looked at his daughter, Zheng Yannan, with a serious expression, he exhorted, “Nan Nan, I don’t care how much you hate me when you’re at home or at school. But today, you had better control your temper. The people who came today are all quite influential. If you offend them, I think you should know the consequences.”
“Dad.” Zheng Yannan was shocked by her father’s serious look. “Mom.” Zheng Yannan looked at her mother for help.
Huang Yujuan’s heart ached for her daughter. She put her arm around her daughter’s shoulder, she patted and comforted her. “Alright, Yuan, you’re scaring Nan Nan. It’s getting late. Let’s go in. I saw my brother and sister-in-law go in just now.”
Zheng Yuan’s family walked in with the invitation card. After her father’s stern exhortation, Zheng Yannan was envious, jealous, and a little resentful towards the main character of today’s birthday party. She felt that… it was all because of the other party’s lousy birthday party that her father was so fierce to her.
When Chen Meng’er was led into the banquet hall by Skinny, surrounded by Chen Haoguo, Chen Haoxuan, and the others, Elder Liu, Zhuge Yu, Fatty, Ah Biao, Chen Ping, and Liu Juan, who were laughing and chatting with the people around them… after apologizing to the people in front of them, they all lifted their feet and walked in the direction of Chen Meng’er.
Chen Meng’er walked into the banquet hall and looked at the bustling people in the hall. She felt a headache as she reached out to rub her temples. Then, she said to Skinny beside her, “Uncle Skinny, we should be in the wrong place, right?”
