"They will pay great attention to privacy and sense of proportion."

"Besides, their diet is very simple, with only a few kinds of food. It is very convenient to prepare and does not require so much manpower."

These words could not convince Jin Hengsu who was ready to do something big. He had already made up his mind that he must use the banquet to make friends with the ambassador.

This is of great benefit to his career.

He just grabbed Ai Shutong's wrist and carried her towards the door.

Ai Shutong had no choice but to remain a bad guest with her eyes open.

Mary was in the room, looking at Ai Shutong, who had a look of social despair on her face, with a smile on her face.

"Dear Ai, I didn't know you had such deep feelings for me."

Thinking of what Jin Hengsu had just said in the lobby downstairs, Ai Shutong covered her face in shame and anger.

Mary: "Okay, okay, I won't bother you anymore. Don't take it to heart."

"Your father is your father, and you are you. I just know that you are my friend."

Ai Shutong held it in for a long time before finally saying, "Mary, I want to go to the bathroom."

Mary's room has a bathroom, which is very convenient.

Ai Shutong locked the door as soon as she entered.

Then he quickly swapped the gift box in his hand with the one in the space.

After a while she went out and said to Mary, "Dear Mary, I had forgotten that this is a present for you."

Mary took it happily, "Thank you Ai."

Ai Shutong: "Open it and see if you like it?"

Mary opened the box and saw an antique silver pocket watch. She smiled and thanked him again: "Thank you, Ai. I like it very much."

Ai Shutong knew that Mary would be satisfied. If she really gave her a Rolex watch, not only would Mary not accept it, but even if she accepted it, it would be returned after Sir John knew about it.

It was almost six o'clock when Mary took Ai Shutong downstairs.

In the empty hall, Alan was sitting in the corner with Jin Hengsu.

Jin Hengshu was talking with saliva flying everywhere, and Alan had a dead look on his face as if he had lost all hope in life.

He noticed Mary and Ai Shutong coming down.

He immediately raised his voice and said, "Ai, your father is here, please stay with him for a while, I have to go to the door to greet the guests."

Ai Shutong walked over and said to Jin Hengsu directly: "I'm so sorry, I promised Mary that I would go out with her to greet the guests, so I can't accompany you."

Jin Hengshu waved his hands hurriedly, "Since Miss Mary wants to use you, she thinks highly of you. Go quickly! Don't delay Miss Mary's work!"

Ai Shutong lowered her head and rolled her eyes secretly. What?!

If you look down on yourself, how can others look down on you!

As expected of the British ambassador's daughter, there were not only a lot of young boys and girls of the same age but also quite a few older ladies and gentlemen.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Sir John and his lady arrived in their best attire.

Sir John is not tall, about 1.7 meters, with good skin and a slightly plump figure.

Ai Shutong wanted to laugh when she saw him. He was far from the heroic ambassador image she had imagined. He looked more like a pastor.

He picked up the fork and the goblet and knocked them a few times. After the "ding ding ding" sound, the hall slowly became quiet.

"Ladies and gentlemen, good evening everyone!"

"Everyone is welcome to attend my daughter Mary's birthday party. She is eighteen years old today. I wish she will be as happy as she is today every day in the future."

"Everyone, don't be restrained and have fun. If you need anything, you can find my butler Ross!"

There was warm applause in the hall.

Ai Shutong clapped her hands until they turned red.

Because she was so excited, it was the shortest speech she had ever heard.

Little did she know that the principal of her previous school would take at least two hours to speak, and everyone would fall asleep every time.

Soon, a circle of people gathered around the ambassador. Jin Hengsu wanted to step forward and speak, but was always beaten to the punch by others.

Finally it was his turn. He only expressed a few words of admiration, and before he had the chance to talk about his own ambitions, the ambassador kindly stopped him.

The ambassador first expressed his gratitude for attending the banquet, then said that he had something else to do and needed to leave first. He asked Ross next to him to entertain him, and then left in a hurry.

The discouraged Jin Hengshu happened to meet Kong Xiangjie, the principal of Yuying Middle School.

Principal Kong held up a glass of red wine and started to greet him.

After a while, Jin Hengsu found out that several school directors were raising funds to expand the school, and Jin Hengsu generously contributed three thousand dollars.

Of course, his three sons will also start school in August this year.

The two of them were chatting happily, and for a moment, it seemed as if flowers were blooming in this corner, with a thriving atmosphere.

"Teacher Shen, aren't you coming?" Ai Shutong ate a piece of cake, patted the cake crumbs on her hands, and asked Alan casually.

Alan looked at his watch before replying, "It's past ten. Shen probably won't come. I forwarded the invitation on behalf of Mary. He said he would come if he was free, but not if he wasn't."

Ai Shutong said "Oh" in disappointment.

She originally wanted to talk to him about the follow-up plans and ask him to help fill in the omissions.

"Ai, come here quickly, I'll introduce someone to you."

Mary, who was not far away, waved to Ai Shutong.

Ai Shutong nodded to Allen and said, "I'm going to look for Mary."

Allen: "Go ahead, I want to go dancing too, you're as old-fashioned and boring as Shen!"

Ai Shutong rolled her eyes at him rudely, but he didn't mind and walked away laughing.

Mary grabbed Ai Shutong who was walking over and said, "This is Zheng, the second daughter of the Director of Health. She also attends Beiman Girls' High School."

Turning his head, he said, "Zheng, this is the daughter of the director of the Education Bureau, Ai. She just got admitted to Beiman Girls' High School this year. You must take good care of her when the time comes."

Only then did Ai Shutong realize that Mary had kindly found a senior schoolmate for her.

I want this senior to take care of me more.

She naturally accepted the offer and immediately extended her hand, "Hello, Miss Zheng, my name is Ai Shutong."

Miss Zheng reached out and held her hand, and said politely, "Hello, Miss Ai, my name is Zheng Ruyue."

The three of them started chatting around Beiman Girls' School.

Zheng Ruyue said politely: "The teachers and classmates in the school are easy to get along with. Don't worry, you will fit in with them soon."

Mary said proudly: "Zheng, you don't know, Ai ranked third in the exam this time."

Zheng Ruyue was stunned for a moment, then her expression became serious, "Congratulations, the top three students in each grade of our school will be exempted from tuition and accommodation fees."

Ai Shutong really didn't know that students could live on campus at Beiman Girls' High School, but she had already given her place to Kim Min-jeong. Although it was a pity, she did not regret it.

"The mother has a biological daughter who also took the entrance exam but failed."

"My mother asked me to give her the admission quota, and I have agreed."
