“Let bygones be bygones! Forget it!” Mr. Hou reluctantly forgave Zhang Changjiu. Seeing that Mr. Hou’s attitude was relaxed, Zhang Changjiu heaved a long sigh of relief. Zhang Changjiu was a little smug as he said, “Brother-in-law, you don’t know how much effort I spent to help you get this bottle of good wine. The people from the Hou family’s inner clan are all more unscrupulous than the other. It’s impossible for them to be willing to buy you such a good gift!” A voice suddenly came from outside, “I want to see who’s spouting nonsense here. It’s just a bottle of wine, but they actually dare to slander our Hou family’s inner clan!” The person who spoke was none other than Hou Cheng, who strode in with his grandfather, Hou Gui, his father, Hou Qiang, and his mother, Gu Yao. Behind them, there were more than ten Ye family members. They came here today with only one goal, and that was to cozy up to Jian Xing’er.

Of course, if he wanted to get close to Jian Xing’er, he had to please Hou Junlai’s family first, especially Hou Junlai! Before coming, they had already discussed that no matter what, Hou Junlai had to help them put in a good word for Jian Xing’er. Also, Mr. Hou was the protagonist today, so they couldn’t forget him. “Hehe!” Zhang Changjiu sneered and swept his gaze across the Hou family members coldly. “The bottle of baijiu that 1 gave him is old and worth hundreds of thousands of yuan. What about you? What gift did you bring for my brother-in-law? Why don’t you take it out and show it to everyone?” Hou Cheng replied, “Fine! How dare you show off that lousy bottle of wine!” With that, Hou Cheng whispered to the bodyguards behind him, and the two bodyguards immediately carried the box of baijiu in from the courtyard. The two bodyguards carefully opened the wooden box, which contained six bottles of cellar high-grade red wine. Each bottle of red wine was worth more than 100,000, so six bottles were worth at least a million. Zhang Changjiu’s baijiu paled in comparison.

Zhang Changjiu couldn’t hold it in anymore. When Mr. Hou saw the million yuan worth of red wine in the box, he couldn’t sit still anymore. He had never drunk such expensive wine before! He didn’t show it on his face, but he was feeling smug inside. However, this was just the beginning. Hou Qiang, Gu Yao, and even the members of the Hou family had sent expensive gifts. Even the head of the Hou family, Hou Gui, had personally sent gifts to Mr. Hou. As Mrs. Hou and Hou Xiaoyu watched from the side, they grinned from ear to ear. They weren’t happy about these priceless gifts, but his matter was enough to show how much the Hou family valued their family. This made them feel very proud. There was probably no one in the Hou family who was more glamorous than them.

After the initial excitement, Mrs. Hou and Hou Xiaoyu didn’t forget to greet everyone, and Mr. Hou also entertained the guests. The entire villa’s hall was filled with people. Hou Gui asked, “Junlai and Jian Xing’er aren’t here yet?” Mrs. Hou said with a smile, “Junlai is catching up on his sleep. He stayed up all night in the company yesterday and only came back early this morning! Jian Xing’er will probably be here soon. She personally promised to come over to attend Junlai’s father’s birthday party yesterday. Don’t be anxious. She’ll probably be here soon.” Mrs. Hou knew very well that if not for Jian Xing’er, these people wouldn’t have appeared in their villa to celebrate Mr. Hou’s birthday. “Xiaoyu, call your sister-in-law and ask her when she’s coming over. The elders are waiting for her!” Mrs. Hou nodded and walked into the courtyard. At this moment, a beautiful figure appeared in front of everyone. It was none other than Jian Xing’er, who everyone had been waiting for.

Seeing that Jian Xing’er had arrived, Hou Gui and Zhang Changjiu, who were originally sitting on the sofa, immediately stood up and went forward to greet Jian Xing’er. The others also immediately surrounded her. The birthday star, Mr. Hou, was ignored. As Jian Xing’er answered everyone’s questions, she looked for Hou Cheng. She only had one goal for coming today, and that was to kill Hou Cheng. Jian Xing’er had met Hou Cheng before, so she quickly found Hou Cheng in the crowd. Hou Cheng saw that Jian Xing’er had been staring at him, so he hurriedly went forward to greet her and said with a smile, “Sister-in-law, long time no see. We must catch up later. We can’t return until we’re drunk!” However, Jian Xing’er ignored him, making him feel a little embarrassed..
