128 Didn’t He Tell You?
Lu Zhi and Shen Yunci took this opportunity to go home.
They were heading back to prepare a birthday surprise for Lu Ning.
The day Lu Ning would be discharged from the hospital happened to fall on her birthday; it was her first birthday since she came to the house, so Shen Yunci wanted to make the celebration one to remember.
She had wanted to book a restaurant, but after taking everything else into consideration this idea fell through; she could only organize the party at home, though at least the family could celebrate happily together.
However, they had to set it up properly.
Shen Yunci bought a lot of balloons; last night, Lu Jingzhi had blown them until his cheeks were almost swollen.
The two of them had just walked into the neighborhood when someone called out to them.
“Hey, hey! Old Lu! Your delivery!”
An old man ran out of the delivery room and handed them a courier envelope.
“Thank you, sir.”
“Is Little Ning better? How long will it be until she’s back?”
The old man could not help but ask.
“She’ll be back soon, in a couple more days.”
“That’s good.”
After saying goodbye, the two of them opened the envelope as they walked home.
“What is it?”
Shen Yunci craned her head curiously to look.
Lu Zhi took the letter out from the envelope—it was an exquisitely decorated invitation.
“An invitation? Who’s getting married? I never heard any news like that.”
They opened the invitation card.
After taking a glance, Shen Yunci snatched it and tossed it into the nearby trash can.
It was an invitation to Lù Yue’an’s birthday party.
“She actually has the cheek to send an invitation back home!”
Lu Zhi patted her. “It’s fine, we won’t be going; don’t get mad. We still have to set up the surprise party for Ning’ning.”
Shen Yunci took a deep breath and said nothing more.
“Remember to call Qing’er and tell him to celebrate his sister’s birthday at home. If he dares not to come or he goes to the Lù family, I’ll cut ties with him!”
Lu Zhi smiled helplessly. “Qing’er understands these. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely tell him.”
——————
On Lù Yue’an’s side, the banquet hall had been beautifully decorated, and almost all the celebrities and elites of A City were invited.
This banquet was destined to be a grand affair.
The entirety of A City’s upper echelons were in an uproar.
After all, the matter regarding the fake daughter of the Lù family had created a stir, and even became the go-to after-dinner topic for many.
Now that the real young lady was back, they would have to hold a proper banquet to introduce her to everyone, lest they did not know who the real young lady of the Lù family was.
This could be construed as directly shoving Lu Ning all the way to the bottom of the pit publicly. However, at that time, who would still remember someone like Lu Ning? After all, the Lù family only had Lù Yue’an now.
The Lin family was also very happy that their youngest son had returned.
Lin Yi had just returned and did not know about what happened over at the Lù family.
He had been back for two days and had yet to leave the house.
And today, he was suddenly asked to try on some clothes.
“I asked someone to make these clothes according to your previous measurements, so I don’t know if they’ll fit you. Try them on.”
Zhao Junli handed the clothes over for Lin Yi to try them on.
Lin Yi was playing a game on his phone.
Hearing this, he simply glanced up and did not move, continuing to play his game.
“Why should I wear this?”
Zhao Junli was displeased with his attitude; she walked over and pinched his ear. “You have to go to the Lù family’s banquet in two days.”
Lin Yi sighed in exasperation. “I’m not going. What’s there for me to go to? I’ll definitely attend the wedding, okay?”
Zhao Junli looked at him. “You insolent child! Hurry up! It’s your first time meeting her, so how can we not go! Hurry up and give it a try!”
She tugged his ear.
Lin Yi was forced to stand up. “Bah, get lost! What ‘first meeting’? It’s not like I haven’t seen her before.”
Zhao Junli was silent for a moment as she looked at him. “Didn’t your father tell you?”
