When he saw Cheng Su.
Even though Zhou Yili was still angry at her daughter, she suppressed it forcefully. She didn't want to pass on the negative energy to Cheng Su.
She revealed a friendly smile and walked up to Cheng Su. Then, her cold gaze swept across the women around her.
"If you want to find a man, get out! Any Tom, Dick, or Harry could be let in!”
Zhou Yili said coldly. An invisible aura spread out, and the people around them kept quiet out of fear.
Very quickly.
A few of their elders came out to plead for mercy and mediate the tense situation. At the same time, they apologized to Cheng Su.
Zhou Yili didn't want to make a big deal out of it. She wanted to save her daughter some face, so she could only let out a low grunt.
"Auntie!"
Cheng Su said softly. She quickly stood up and pretended to be rescued, deliberately heaving a sigh of relief.
Zhou Yili's heart ached as she held onto Qi Su's hand.
He was alone, but he had to face a group of tigers, leopards, and wolves. He was probably very nervous.
"It's okay, Su…Auntie was busy just now, so she came late. Did they take advantage of you?”
Zhou Yili asked with concern.
At the same time, she felt even more resentful towards the irresponsible Zhou Shaoqiong.
"No, I haven't."
Cheng Su said softly and shook her head.
Zhou Yili heaved a sigh of relief. She grabbed Cheng Su's hand and led him to the front row.
"You even brought a gift for Shao Qiong?"
When she saw the gift box in Cheng Su's hand, she exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, I made the cake myself, but it looks very ugly…"
Zhou Yili smiled. She took the gift box and glanced at the cake. The crooked handwriting on it made her smile.
"Xiao Su, don't belittle yourself. It's a small gift, but it's a big deal. When it's auntie's birthday, can you make auntie a cake too?”
She turned her head and whispered into Cheng Su's ear. Her eyes were very gentle.
"Yes."
Cheng Su nodded, her face innocent and obedient.
When the guests on both sides saw Zhou Yili being so kind to a young man and her actions were extremely intimate, they immediately whispered to each other and secretly guessed Cheng Su's identity.
He walked to the front row.
Zhou Yili called over a waiter.
"Bring a chair over and prepare some cutlery…"
The waiter nodded in agreement.
Under Zhou Yili's arrangement, Cheng Su sat beside her and leaned very close to her.
"Xiao Su, greet all the uncles and aunties.”
Zhou Yili stood up and introduced Cheng Su to the others.
Her actions had clearly told everyone that she was Cheng Su's future son-in-law.
Whether it was the Zhou family's relatives or business partners, they all smiled at Cheng Su.
They could tell that this child was probably from an ordinary background. He seemed very restrained in the face of a big scene, and a hint of nervousness hung on his face.
"Hello, Uncle and Auntie."
Cheng Su greeted politely. With his god-level acting skills activated, his every move showed that he was extremely obedient, and his good impression of him increased greatly.
About three minutes later.
Zhou Shaoqiong walked down leisurely. In an instant, her eyes met Cheng Su's, and she immediately looked away.
She wanted to wait until the birthday party officially started before entering the living room.
However, when she heard that Cheng Su was being pestered by a group of women, she felt uncomfortable and walked down without hesitation.
There were two types of guests present.
A group of ordinary guests sat in the back seats.
Another type of important guest sat in the front row.
Only important guests could personally deliver the gifts to Zhou Shaoqiong.
As for the ordinary guests sitting at the back, there would be special staff to collect their gifts.
…………
In the banquet hall.
The party was about to begin.
Cheng Su was intrigued. She sat beside Zhou Yili and watched the dozens of guests with smiles on their faces. They solemnly held their gifts and walked in front of Zhou Shaoqiong.
He was prepared to be the last to go on stage and did not intend to compete with these guests for the order.
Zhou Shaoqiong glanced at Cheng Su from the corner of her eye, her beautiful eyes sweeping over the gift box in his hand.
She didn't know what Cheng Su's gift was, but she guessed that he was living on a tight budget and wouldn't be able to bring out such a big gift.
At this moment.
A middle-aged woman walked over and held Zhou Shaoqiong's palm.
"Niece Zhou, happy birthday. I know you have a lot of cars, but I don't know what to give you. I'll give you a limited edition sports car.”
Cheng Su listened from the side and couldn't help but secretly curse. Giving a limited edition sports car was really not a big deal.
Zhou Shaoqiong was very polite. He took the sports car keys with both hands and placed them in a special gift box.
"Thank you, Auntie."
…………
Not long after.
Dozens of guests and friends had finished giving gifts, and none of them was worth less than a million yuan. It was a good example of the term 'wealthy.'
When it was Cheng Su's turn.
Everyone was strangely silent.
Zhou Shaoqiong pursed her lips and allowed Cheng Su to hold the gift as she stood in front of her.
"Shao Qiong, I…wish you a happy birthday.”
Cheng Su pretended to be extremely embarrassed. She handed the gift box to her with a red face, and her arms seemed to be trembling slightly.
However…
Zhou Shaoqiong slowly took the gift box, but did not put it into the gift box like before.
At this moment, everyone put down their chopsticks and frowned as they looked at the scene in front of them strangely.
