Furthermore, He Ziheng's tone was too arrogant. Chu Ling was a top celebrity now, how could he not know him?
Chu Ling's face turned awkward. It could be said that he was famous and had countless fans. However, when He Ziheng opened his mouth, it was as if he had never heard his name. Not only that, he was even speaking rudely, not giving him any face at all.
Chu Ling was angry, but he knew what kind of person He Ziheng was. He had to say in a low voice, "1 have heard Young Master He's great name for a long time, so I came to greet you. If I have been rude, please forgive me."
"Oh, I was wondering who you guys were. You're acting so familiar right from the start. You scared me," He Ziheng said. "You even said that I came to give you my blessings for your birthday. Do I know you guys?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm really sorry." Chu Ling looked embarrassed as he looked at Shi Xuexin reproachfully. How could she have been so reckless?
Shi Xuexin's face turned pale. "I'm really sorry, Young Master He."
"It's alright now." He Ziheng did not mind and waved his hand to indicate that it was fine. However, it was clear that he had no intention of interacting with Chu Ling. After saying this, he turned to leave.
The others naturally followed, about to leave. Ever since Shi Xuexin and Chu Ling had greeted him, He Ziheng had not looked at them seriously.
Shi Xuexin consoled Chu Ling. "Young Master He must be busy with something, so he doesn't have time to talk to us. It's alright. When they are done with their work later, we'll see if we'll get a chance to go up and say a few words."
"Mhm." Chu Ling regained some spirit.
He Ziheng turned around and asked Qiao Zhuoli, "Is Shi Jin's birthday party here? Don't send my birthday cake to the wrong place!"
"This way." Qiao Zhuoli nodded.
"That's good. If there's a mistake, I won't be able to keep my head."
Everyone laughed and walked in.
Shi Xuexin's mind went blank. Her already pale face turned even paler. Was He Ziheng here for Shi Jinqing's birthday?
Looking at the people around him, all of them were either rich or powerful. Everyone's status should be about the same as his. So many people had appeared at once, and they were all there to celebrate Shi Jin's birthday? Why were these people celebrating her birthday?
Let alone Shi Jin, even Gu Jingyuan might not be able to hire a top manager like Yao Jiahong.
She raised her head to look at Chu Ling. Chu Ling's face was also filled with surprise. He was even more shocked than Shi Xuexin. Neither understood why these people had appeared here together.
Which side did they belong to? Who had invited them?
Both of them had their own thoughts and were silent until a voice broke the silence. "Chu Ling!"
Chu Ling turned around and realized that his friend from the entertainment industry had arrived. He forced himself to cheer up and greeted Shi Xuexin. "Xuexin, my friends are here. This is the second surprise I have for you today."
It was two fresh meat male celebrities and two female celebrities. The four of them were considered famous in the entertainment industry. They had made great achievements in their respective fields and had a lot of fans.
If it were any other day, no, even if it had been that morning, Shi Xuexin would definitely have been so happy that she would have jumped up and gone to them to take pictures and ask for autographs.
However, when she thought about Shi Jin's party, not only were there popular singers, movie stars, various teachers, and even He Ziheng's entire group of friends, Shi Xuexin could not bring herself to jump up in excitement.
Any random from Shi Jin's party could beat everyone here, not to mention that she had so many friends.
Shi Xuexin received the guests politely. Chu Ling asked with a smile, "Are you surprised?" "Yes, I'm very happy. Brother Chu Ling, thank you so much for being so considerate and thoughtful towards me." Shi Xuexin did not want to dampen his spirits and maintained her cheerful attitude.
"Today is your birthday. I hope you can always be a happy little princess," Chu Ling said affectionately.
Shi Xuexin nodded her head gently as happiness slowly returned to her.

The moment He Ziheng entered, he walked over to Shi Jin, who was talking to someone. While she was talking, he leaned over and whispered, "Little sister-in-law, happy birthday!"
Shi Jin turned around and saw He Ziheng, Qiao Zhuoli, Pei Junyi, and Lan Tian.
Lan Tian tied her hair into a bun and ran over to Shi Jin's side obediently. "Sister Shi Jin, happy birthday. I'm so happy to be able to attend your birthday party."
"I'm glad you could come, too."
"Are you unhappy that we're here?" He Ziheng saw that Shi Jin liked to talk to Lan Tian and shouted in jealousy. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
"Welcome! I welcome you all!" Shi Jin said.
He Ziheng snorted. "Could you say it any more perfunctorily?"
Lan Tian made a face at him.
"It was amazing just now. As soon as we came in, someone stopped us and welcomed us to her birthday party. So weird," He Ziheng complained.
"That person was called Shi Xuexin, right?" Lan Tian asked.
He Ziheng asked, "Who is Shi Xuexin?"
He had been too lazy to find out about Shi Jin, so he knew very little about her relations.
"It's the one who got swapped with Sister Shi Jin as babies. The one who has been living in the Li family all this while. Later on, she returned to the Shi family and snatched Chu Ling away from the Jin Shi. She has the love of the Shis. Furthermore, she has been targeting Sister Shi Jin all the time!" Lan Tian liked to read gossip, so she was very familiar with this.
Especially after she reconciled with Shi Jin, she had read a lot about her. Now, she knew everything.
"F*ck!" He Ziheng was so angry that his fists balled. "No wonder I didn't like her just now. So that's what happened. If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have been so nice. I really regret leaving just now. Also, that scumbag Chu Ling was the one with the makeup just now!"
He finally remembered someone called Chu Ling. However, it was obvious that this was not a good thing for Chu Ling.
Shi Jin was amused to hear this. However, Chu Ling had the burden of being a top celebrity. Just like some female artistes, he would not go out without makeup.
His hairstyle and makeup had to be carefully handled by a stylist. Shi Jin had long forgotten what he was like underneath.
Shi Jin said, "Forget it. They are all unrelated. Don't take it to heart."
Her tone was nonchalant, and she seemed to have forgotten about the past. Her smile was calm, and she really did not seem to care.
He Ziheng suddenly said, "What kind of taste do you think that scumbag has? He actually took a fancy to that woman? Also, how could they be so shameless as to think that we're going to celebrate her birthday?"
Lan Tian said, "That's right. How can Chu Ling compare to Boss?"
Pei Junyi suddenly laughed dryly. "Have you all forgotten that Shi Xuexin did not fancy Boss in the past? Isn't she just lucky to be together with Chu Ling?"
