Shen Kun did not want to host a big banquet for his 50th birthday initially. However, he took the hints that Shen Yan wanted to help him hold a big celebration from their phone call.

He hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

For the past three years, his daughter had not accompanied him on his birthday. Now that she wanted to help him celebrate his birthday, he was obviously in favor of it.

Of course, Shen Kun also wanted to use this opportunity to let everyone know that Shen Yan was his daughter, and anyone who dared to bully his daughter would be going against the Shen family.

Although the father and daughter duo had different thoughts, their goals were the same. That was to celebrate Shen Kun’s 50th birthday grandly.

Shen Kun had been in the industry for so many years, and he naturally knew a lot of people, so he sent out the invitations.

Shen Yan returned to South City two days early. This was the place where she grew up. Also, she personally prepared all the details for Shen Kun’s birthday banquet.

Chen Nian helped Shen Yan with the preparations and was busy all day long.

The Shen family had always liked to keep a low profile, and this time Shen Kun’s banquet was the biggest event of the Shen family in the past ten years.

Shen Yan’s classmates from school never thought that she was actually the daughter of the Shen family of the hidden families. After hearing the news, they all rushed over in an attempt to get close to her.

However, Shen Yan was really too busy, so she left those people to Miss Na.

Not everyone could get an invitation to the Shen family’s banquet. First, it was sent to the people who were on good terms with the Shen family, and then the Shen family’s business partners.

When Miss Na was sending out the invitations, she asked Shen Yan if she wanted to give one to the Fu family.

Shen Yan despised their way of handling matters. Initially, she did not want to give the Fu family an invitation, but her rationality prevailed, so she politely asked Miss Na to send one.

The Shen family and the Fu family had collaborated together several times in the past. People in the circle would probably start conspiring again if an invitation was not sent to the Fu family.

Shen Yan felt that Old Master Fu must hate the Shen family gravely and would definitely never let anyone come over.

The banquet began, and Shen Yan was startled when Miss Na told her that Fu Hang was coming.

Shen Yan held back her thumping heart and calmed herself down. She thought that it would be fine if she just treated Fu Hang as a stranger.

Shen Yan was wearing a sky-blue evening gown, and she walked gracefully among the crowd. Her gaze inadvertently fell on the faces of the two men who had just entered.

They were none other than Fu Hang and Lu Yan.

Shen Yan gently shook her red wine glass and drank it slowly.

Chen Nian, who was wearing an orange evening gown, hovered closer to her and whispered, “Yanyan, there’s something strange.”

Shen Yan raised her eyebrows and looked at her curiously.

“Fu Hang and Lu Yan came here together.” Chen Nian muttered in a low voice, “I heard that they are staying at the same hotel. They came all the way here one after another. Lu Yan wanted to leave Fu Hang behind, but Fu Hang kept following closely behind.”

“I’ll go and take a look.” Although Shen Yan did not want to interact with those two people, she had no choice but to go over and greet them.

Her makeup was delicate, and she walked over with a glass of red wine in her hand. She smiled and greeted, “Welcome, President Fu and Mr Lu.”

When Fu Hang entered the banquet, his attention fell on Shen Yan. She had a smile on her face when greeting the guests politely the whole time.

What made him uncomfortable was that Shen Yan had coldness and indifference written under her eyes when she saw him. He knew deep down that she was still angry with him.

“Miss Shen, you look very beautiful today.” Lu Yan gently raised his glass and clinked it with hers.

“Thank you.” Shen Yan’s lips curled up slightly, but her smile did not reach her eyes.

Fu Hang glared at Lu Yan with dissatisfaction. Lu Yan was really good at pretending. He always managed to put on a guise of a good man in front of outsiders.

In fact, Lu Yan was not what he seemed to be!
