Chapter 39: Carrying It Out (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the blink of an eye, half a month had pa.s.sed.

It was time for Lu Qinzheng’s birthday.

Lu Manman had a peaceful period of time, which was strange.

Since Wen Yun was busy with his work as he was striving for the promotion, they hadn’t met up much. As for Mo Yuanxiu, he wasn’t the type that would take the initiative to meet up with her. She couldn’t understand why she had chosen to partner up with this guy for her plans.

She felt that what she had done was a really bold move.

In the morning.

Lu Manman and her mom went to the mall to pick a dress and prepare their makeup. They even got a present, even though the real gift was to let Lu Xuanran enter the company.

And a painting by Tao Kuanzhi.

It was painful for Lu Manman to give this away.

If it had been in her previous life, she wouldn’t have given this to Lu Qinzheng, but since this was her second life, such material possession wasn’t important to her anymore!

Of course, she wouldn’t give this to him in front of everyone. If she did that, he wouldn’t accept it, and he might even scold her in front of everyone. Accepting it would stain his reputation. Hence, she had sent it to him last night. Since he hadn’t sent it back to her, it was obvious that he had accepted the painting as a gift.

Lu Manman and her mom both changed into a gorgeous gown. They collected the Golden Buddha that was reserved by them. Lu Manman also got a black pipe before heading downstairs to join her dad to head to the Lu Family’s home garden.

There weren’t many people in the garden, as not everyone had arrived. They were busy setting up the living room. When Lu Manman and her family returned, they started to receive the guests.

Around 4 pm, guests from the four families arrived. The Gu Family was the earliest, but Gu Xin wasn’t with them. She was coming with Di Yi. Next was the Wen Family. Wen Yun stood next to Lu Manman to receive the guests. The Di Family was next. Jiang Yiyao, Gu Xin, Di Yi, and Di An came, with just Di Yi’s parents absent.

Di An was a quiet person.

He had gone overseas when he had been 18 to learn about photography. He had gained a small gathering overseas, and even earned several international awards. Sometimes, you might even see him appearing in the newspaper.

The last to arrive was the Mo Family.

Mo Yuanxiu came with his parents.

His parents were humble folks, unlike their child. He didn’t care about anyone. Even though Lu Manman was welcoming at the gates, he entered without greeting her.

Wen Yun looked at him, and said, “Still as c.o.c.ky as ever.”

Lu Manman nodded.

Still way better than you, a liar.

The four big families and the largest aristocratic family were gathered here.

This was a rare sight, and was a big deal in Wen City. Because the media wouldn’t dare to report on this, the place was still a private event.

In the center of the huge Lu Family’s house’s living room were two huge round tables. The tablecloths were lined with gold, and everything looked grand. Delicacies filled the table. The guests were seated around it, and they were wishing Lu Qinzheng a happy birthday.

Before they could start eating, there was a segment for the guests to present their gifts and give their birthday greetings.

It started with Lu Zishan’s generation.

Lu Zishan’s gift was a golden buddha.

Lu Zichuan presented a gift as well. It was a traditional painting. Even though it wasn’t an antique, it was well-painted, and looked picturesque.
