This was the first time Guan Yue saw such a thick-skinned and shameless person. Her good upbringing made her hold back her displeasure. She just replied, “Mr. Su, you should talk to Xixi. I can’t make this decision.”
Xixi had clearly told Guan Yue and her teacher to ignore the Su family if they met them. They did not need to pay any attention to them or change their attitude towards them because of her.
Su Yi smiled a little awkwardly and nodded. He feigned confidence as he said, “Okay, I’ll talk to Xixi.”
If he could talk that girl into having dinner with them, would he still need to beg Guan Yue like this?
‘This snob didn’t even give me face? Wait till Xixi comes back to us and we’ll see if you still dared to be so condescending to me!’
‘When that happened, Shu Baiyu still had to go through me first if she wanted to take Xixi in as her apprentice. Then, I would definitely give them a hard time crushing their pride.’
Su Ruowan just wanted to disappear. She especially could not stand seeing Su Yi’s kiss-*ss face. In the past, Su Yi was not even so attentive to her. His attitude towards Shen Xi now was so desperate like a lapdog.
Shen Xi ignored Su Yi, but he still desperately chased after her, wagging his tail and begging for her acceptance, which was such a disgrace to the Su family.
Su Muxuan’s heart was also sour and indignant. He could not stand his father’s behavior, but he dared not raise any objections.
He had always respected his father until Shen Xi’s identity was revealed. After seeing his father’s attitude towards Shen Xi, Su Muxuan became resentful, angry, and frustrated, which finally turned into disappointment and hatred.
No matter what Shen Xi did, Su Yi would be tolerant of her and would persist in getting her back. Su Yi even humbled himself to beg her and wanted to take her home at all costs.
What about them? No matter how much they did, they were nothing to their father.
Especially after Su Yi decided to take Shen Xi back, every time he opened his mouth was about Xixi. He would defend her and even forbade them to say a word against her. It was as if Shen Xi would come back with him if they did all that.
Shen Xi’s performance was the highlight of the show.
There was another dance after her, but it was tasteless compared to “Flower Fairy”.
The audience was still shaken by “Flower Fairy” and did not even pay attention to the last dance. It was not until the dancer left the stage that the audience returned to their senses and noticed that the show ended.
“Hey, wait!” Su Ruowan called out to Fu Qingxuan when he got up.
Fu Qingxuan only thought about Shen Xi at this moment. He just wanted to go home and wait for her. Anyhow, he could not be seen here because Shen Xi would just mock him to no end.
Su Ruowan watched the teenager leave and chased after him, but he just disappeared in front of her. Since there were too many people, she could no longer find him. She clenched her fists and consoled herself.
She had a strong feeling that they were destined to meet again.
Li Jingran looked at Su Ruowan as if her soul had been taken away and went to her side. She asked, “Who is he?”
Su Ruowan lied, “I don’t know.”
She would never reveal his identity before she succeeded. After she successfully got a hold of him, then she would reveal his identity so that her family would be impressed with her.
“Jingran,” Su Yi came over. “Why don’t you guys come with me backstage to look for Xixi? We haven’t eaten together as a family in a long time. Since it’s almost the New Year, we can bring her home for reunion dinner[1].”
Li Jingran’s expression changed slightly. Even though she was reluctant, she nodded and said, “Okay.”
If she knew this would happen, she would not have come. Li Jingran originally wanted to see Shu Baiyu make a fool of herself. Instead of getting a good show, she only felt exasperated.

‘Shen Xi, this brat, must have been my enemy in our past lives! Out of all people, this brat picked on me and provoked me!’
“I’m not going. You guys can go ahead,” Su Muxuan threw a tantrum and grunted before he walked away.
Su Ruowan pulled him back. “Big brother, don’t do this. Come with us to look for Lil Sis. Dad’s right, the family should be complete for the New Year.”
“If you don’t go today, then don’t bother coming home again.” Su Yi looked at Su Muxuan and gave him an ultimatum.
In the end, Su Muxuan did not have the guts to leave and followed along bitterly to look for Shen Xi.
In the theater, the audience filed out in order.
Fu Qingxuan had just stepped foot out of the hall when he was tugged by his clothes. He turned around and saw the barefaced girl looking at him sardonically.
Shen Xi smiled and said, “You came after all!”
Fu Qingxuan was convinced and even deceived himself that she would not recognize him, so he calmly lowered his voice and replied, “Miss, I think you got the wrong person.”
Shen Xi’s lips hooked up slightly as she lifted her hand to remove his sunglasses. She even trailed her voice. “Is that so?”
Not far away.
The man in the wheelchair looked at Fu Qingxuan with cold and sharp eyes. Gloom overshadowed his originally clear and affectionate gaze, which made him look extremely dangerous and aloof.
Kun Lun pushed the wheelchair and could feel the pressure from the hell rising. He felt suffocated and broke out in cold sweat as he turned to look at the couple who were monkeying around not far from them.
In the crowd, the young man was dressed too strangely and the girl was too vibrant and beautiful. When the two of them were together, they were very eye-catching.
The girl pulled the boy’s arm and was unwilling to let go of him. She clung to him and wanted to jump on him to mess with him, but the boy pushed her away.
Just as the girl was about to fall, the guy got nervous and quickly went forward to grab her slender waist.
The girl then swiftly removed his sunglasses, which revealed the guy’s beautiful androgynous face.
This scene was extremely beautiful and harmonious. The girl’s cheeky and soulful smile and the boy’s helpless and doting eyes were like a perfect painting that came to life.
The wheelchair-bound man’s eyes just became darker and colder. They were like a cold, gloomy night that completely swallowed everything. His sickly pale hand covered his heart as he suppressed a light cough.
Not far away, the couple just looked at each other with contempt.
“Fu Qingxuan,” Shen Xi giggled and pinched his face. “You still wanna fool me? Don’t you know that I have fiery-eyes golden-gaze[2]?”
Fu Qingxuan let go of her in disgust and grabbed her pigtail. “Oh, so you’re a monkey.”
Shen Xi was so happy and eager for praise that her eyes shone like stars. “How was my dance?”
Fu Qingxuan did not want to stroke her ego, so he said, “It’s average.”
“You…” Shen Xi only managed to say one word when a familiar figure suddenly swept past the corner of her eye. She turned around in a panic and looked for that person as she muttered, “Brother.”
[1] A Chinese tradition whereby the whole family would gather for a meal during Chinese New Year Eve to signify family cohesiveness
[2] referring to the Monkey King in Chinese folklore, where fiery-eyes golden-gaze allowed him to identify evil no matter what form it takes
