CHAPTER 83: CHAPTER 83: OUR ZHI ZHI JUST ENJOYS

Lu Xingzhi had just spoken when Helian Xi couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

She knew that her third sister-in-law was being completely serious while cracking a joke.

Although she was seriously speaking to others, her words were inadvertently sarcastic.

Shen Xinzhu initially didn’t understand the meaning behind Lu Xingzhi’s words and why these people were laughing, but later she figured it out.

No luck like hers?

Is she saying her fortune isn’t good, and she can only rely on herself?

"Miss Lu really knows how to joke," Shen Xinzhu told herself to remain calm and simply said this flatly.

She saw the complete set of diamond jewelry Lu Xingzhi was wearing and became even more jealous.

How could she possibly afford these tens of millions worth of items, if not given by Huo Jincheng?

Lu Xingzhi: "..."

Joking around, is not her thing!

Huo Jincheng walked up to Lu Xingzhi, with indulgent eyes that everyone could see.

"Miss Shen, my Zhi Zhi is young, but as long as I’m around, her luck will only get better. My Zhi Zhi doesn’t need to rush through life; she just needs to enjoy it comfortably."

Huo Jincheng gently patted Lu Xingzhi’s head and said softly, "In the future, I’ll hire someone to design dresses for you!"

Lu Xingzhi looked down at her clothes, "Is it not pretty? I think it looks nice!"

"You’re the one who’s pretty," Huo Jincheng replied meaningfully.

Shen Xinzhu really found the scene before her to be an eyesore; what did Lu Xingzhi do to deserve such pampering from Huo Jincheng?

What Shen Xinzhu didn’t know was that when Lu Xingzhi appeared in this dress, people really wanted to buy the same one, thinking the dress was too beautiful, dreamlike, and ethereal.

Seeing Lu Xingzhi and then when Shen Xinzhu wore it, she felt it fit quite well and looked quite tasteful. It’s just that the desire to buy it lessened a bit.

Shen Xinzhu wasn’t ugly; her looks were above average, and she had a pretty decent temperament and a good figure.

However, standing next to Lu Xingzhi now, she was really hard to look at.

A beauty that initially appeared quite pleasing, but standing beside Lu Xingzhi, seemed to pale in comparison.

"No comparison, no harm done!" Qin Shihuai was gracefully wandering with a wine glass in the banquet hall but almost spat out his drink when he saw Shen Xinzhu walking toward Lu Xingzhi.

He said to Mo Jinyan beside him, "Why would she want to embarrass herself?"

"How should I know? Go ask her," Mo Jinyan responded, elegantly swirling his wine glass, glancing over with a smile in his eyes.

Shen Xinzhu indeed seemed a little miserable.

The other day, she dressed to the nines, while Lu Xingzhi casually showed up with a bare face and still completely outshone her.

And today, it’s even more apparent.

"Knowing that she can’t win, still going to self-inflict humiliation. But, Little Zhi Liao’s words were really powerful. Few words, each hit the nail on the head." Qin Shihuai quite liked chatting with Lu Xingzhi, as she was very interesting.

Shen Xinzhu looked at Huo Jincheng’s eyes and felt hurt, yet Huo Jincheng’s gaze stayed entirely on Lu Xingzhi.

Absolutely nothing for her.

She wanted to say something but then heard someone speaking on stage.

"Very honored to have everyone here to attend my daughter’s coming-of-age ceremony..."

After Zhou Yunxiang’s opening remarks, today’s leading lady Zou Qianqian also made her entrance.

Zou Qianqian was about the same height as Helian Xi and wore a pink princess puff dress with a small crown on her head.
