After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

Ye Ying'er skillfully hooked her arm around Gu Tianyou's right arm, a charming smile appearing on her face.

Lu Jiajia opened her mouth in shock.

She truly hadn't expected Gu Tianyou to come.

Before inviting Shen Yao, she made a special inquiry and found out that Gu Tianyou was still on a business trip out of town and wouldn't be back for a while.

Could it be that Gu Tianyou returned early to attend Ye Ying'er's birthday party?

Various speculations intertwined in Lu Jiajia's mind.

She suddenly turned her head to look at Shen Yao and found that Shen Yao had been looking at Gu Tianyou.

Lu Jiajia quickly grabbed Shen Yao's shoulders and turned her body around.

"Yaoyao, the party is boring, let's go!"

As she spoke, she pulled Shen Yao outside.

Shen Yao looked confused and bewildered. "Jiajia, didn't you say that after we came here, we were going to eat and drink to our hearts' content, and order several bottles of six-figure red wine to make Ye Ying'er bleed?"

Lu Jiajia waved her hand, "There's no need for that, it's too childish."

What she was really thinking was, "Ye Ying'er, you're lucky. Next time, I definitely won't let the chance to take advantage of you so easily."

"Hey, isn't this Jiajia? Are you leaving already?" Ye Ying'er, arm in arm with Gu Tianyou, smiled at Lu Jiajia.

As the hostess of the party, Lu Jiajia's words immediately drew the attention of everyone present.

Almost everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Jiajia and Shen Yao.

Lu Jiajia, displaying a rather manly spirit, shielded Shen Yao behind him.

"Yeah, your birthday party was so boring, so pointless, I'm leaving."

"We're already here, what's the rush? The second young master of the Bo family is coming too. Don't you want to see him?" Ye Ying'er smiled gently, but her eyes held a hint of teasing.

Upon hearing the words "the second young master of the Bo family," Lu Jiajia's face immediately darkened.

She lowered her eyes, as if she had thought of something, and her hand holding Shen Yao's trembled slightly.

Ye Ying'er stood not far away, watching her like this, and couldn't help but let out a soft snort.

Shen Yao sensed that something was wrong with Lu Jiajia and gripped her hand tightly. "Jiajia, don't be afraid, I'm here. If you really don't like staying here, we can leave, okay?"

Encouraged by her friend, Lu Jiajia raised her eyes and slowly shook her head. "Yaoyao, I want to see him."

Seeing the sadness almost overflowing in Lu Jiajia's eyes, Shen Yao was taken aback, but then nodded, "Then I'll stay with you."

Ye Ying'er's phoenix eyes flickered slightly as she saw Shen Yao. A playful glint appeared in her eyes. "Jiajia, your friend has a very elegant air about her. Could you introduce her to me?"

The man beside Ye Ying'er also seemed to unintentionally let his gaze fall on Shen Yao.

Tonight, Shen Yao wore a black high-necked, shimmering silk dress with a sleeveless design featuring cutouts at the shoulders, which accentuated her slender and tall figure. Paired with her long, flowing hair, she looked understated, elegant, and mysterious.

"What, you even want to lay a finger on my friend?" When Lu Jiajia saw the man's gaze on Shen Yao, her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly used her body to block Shen Yao.

Lu Jiajia is very tall, standing at 172 cm, which completely blocked Shen Yao from view.

Ye Ying'er's smile froze slightly, but only for a fraction of a second.

"Jiajia, so many years have passed, and you're still so stingy."

“Yes, so many years have passed, and Miss Ye still likes to covet other people’s things.” Lu Jiajia retaliated in kind.

Ye Ying'er's eyes, which were covered by colored contact lenses, narrowed slightly. Just as she was about to get angry, the man next to her suddenly spoke up.

"Jiajia, I want to get to know this friend of yours again."
