Qin Chaoyue was not unaware of the movements here.

From afar, Lin Sheng could be seen actively seeking out her younger brother. Before she could even approach, Yan Huaishu and Shen Wenyu, the uncle and nephew, went up to him, and Lin Sheng ended up slinking away...

This family is still up to no good.

Who gave them that confidence and courage?

Even Lin Sheng could see through it at a glance, so the mastermind behind it all couldn't escape Qin Chaoyue's eyes.

She could even see a few people hiding among the glamorous crowd, their expressions furtive and clearly not fitting in.

It was naturally arranged by the other party.

Qin Chaoyue did not drive them away, but instead summoned her attendants...

When the reporter who had disguised himself to enter the venue was found, he was still startled.

He had just vaguely noticed that the person in charge of the Qin family seemed to have glanced in their direction.

His presence here today is partly due to receiving money, and partly because he wants to create a major news story.

You have to understand, in their line of work, traffic equals money! It's everything!!

Even after his attendant whispered a few words in his ear, the middle-aged reporter was still dazed: "Are you sure that person really said that?"

The attendant nodded.

The reporter rubbed the miniature camera in his pocket; he had just used it to record everything here.

"Tell Miss Qin to rest assured, I...I will do it!"

When the servant returned to report that the matter was completed, Qin Chaoyue simply dismissed him without saying another word.

Meanwhile, Qin Mianxing bid farewell to the uncle and nephew and returned to find his sister.

The boy probed indirectly, "A guy named Lin Sheng just came over and said that our two families used to be together, and he even gave me a watch..."

Qin Chaoyue glanced down at it and asked, "Did you take it off your hand on the spot?"

Qin Mianxing: "Mm."

"Keep it; you can sell it later."

Qin Chaoyue said the same thing as Yan Huaishu had said earlier, while the boy kept a close eye on his sister's expression.

"He also said you two knew each other when you were little..."

Qin Chaoyue interrupted, "We're not familiar with each other. We're too different. We can't play together."

Never thought.

Just a moment ago, Qin Mianxing was cautiously probing, but now, her heart suddenly settled down, as if she had breathed a sigh of relief.

He was muttering something under his breath: "I knew it, I knew it... Brother Shen is just trying to scare people!"

Qin Chaoyue leaned closer to listen: "Hmm?"

Xingxing suddenly became serious: "Sis! Just keep your original standards, it's fine... no, it's excellent! Super excellent! No need to change!!"

The siblings were exactly alike, their thoughts were all convoluted and complicated. For example, the younger brother suddenly went crazy, and even his older sister, Qin Chaoyue, couldn't react.

However, to avoid bringing trouble to Qin Mianxing's face again later, Qin Chaoyue still gave her a word of advice.

"Ignore him, that guy..."

He's a lousy person too.

But the boy seemed to have thought of something, and before she could finish speaking, the little prince, dressed in his finest attire, suddenly became serious and solemn.

"I will!!"

Qin Chaoyue: ?

Forget it.

Let him go.

"Brother Ye, Brother Ye—"

Seeing that Qin Mianxing finally had a moment to spare, Cheng Ze approached her again, but then he suddenly paused.

"Should I call him Brother Xing now?"

He couldn't stand watching anymore, and inexplicably performed well, earning praise from several elders. His parents didn't give him any instructions.

Chengze wasn't very old to begin with. Everything was going smoothly at home, so he didn't need to climb up to anyone. As long as things didn't go wrong, he would grow up naturally.

However... after learning about Qin Mianxing's situation, Chengze's mother felt even more that the young man had a hard time and wanted her son to treat him well.

Cheng Ze: ? ? ? Isn't he doing well now?

However, Chengze thought of something else. Ye Ge's original name... oh, now it should be called his stage name. This "Ye" is not what he thought of as "wild", "wilderness", or "field". On the contrary, it may have contained some bad connotations from the beginning.

Just like what that woman said.

Cheng Ze's voice gradually faded away, but Qin Mianxing didn't seem to notice that he was seriously injured.

"Let's stick with the old name. Success."

Anyway, in the entertainment industry, he is still called "Jiang Lingye".

Cheng Ze immediately stopped hesitating and said, "Alright!"

Chengze then said, "By the way, Brother Ye, there's something I need you to come and take a look at..."

As Cheng Ze spoke, he tried to direct the view to the large floor-to-ceiling window on one side of his banquet hall.

Qin Mianxing subconsciously looked at her sister.

Qin Chaoyue raised an eyebrow. She noticed that Cheng Ze had been glancing at the time every now and then since he appeared.

Qin Chaoyue thought to herself.

It was revealed on a variety show that Xingxing's birthday was coming up soon, and Chengze, who was invited, also showed it off on Weibo recently—which is permitted in itself.

and so……

"Go."

Qin Chaoyue followed in his footsteps.

As the large hands of the clock struck eight, a line of text suddenly appeared on the giant screen in the shopping plaza not far away:

Happy 18th birthday, Jiang Lingye! May you be happy every day!

Qin Chaoyue turned his head.

The colorful light, though separated by several streets, seemed to leap into the boy's eyes from afar, adding a layer of dazzling firelight to his dark pupils.

At first it was just a little bit, but it slowly spread and burned into a vast expanse, until even the boy's usually somewhat pretentious lips curved into a cheerful smile.

Qin Chaoyue followed her younger brother and slowly smiled.

—These are the fans' most sincere blessings!

……

Lin Jialang, who had been anxiously waiting outside, finally saw his brother come out.

Upon meeting, Lin Jialang hurriedly stepped forward:

What exactly happened inside?

He had just seen the police arrive and take the Jiang couple away, while their only daughter looked disheveled and humiliated.

Lin Sheng, the CEO, had encountered setbacks at every turn during the banquet and was even forced to leave early, so his expression was naturally unpleasant. When he saw his younger brother again, his usual gentle demeanor as the eldest brother was gone.

"Xiao Lang, you hired those people, didn't you?"

Lin Jialang seemed dazed, unsure whether he was thinking of the glamorous woman inside or about his own affair being exposed, and he didn't respond for a moment.

Lin Sheng's gaze suddenly turned fierce:

"Regardless of the truth, from this moment on, this person has nothing to do with you! Remember that!!"
