“To be honest, I don’t want to give her anything, but 1 have to. I’ve wasted another sum of money. Let’s see if I can get close to my idol, Lu Yunxiao later! If 1 really can’t, I can go to Wang Jiangbei.”

Liu Xiaoyan was furious.

“Zhenzhen, who do you like?”

“I… I like people like Xu Yuning,” Xie Zhenzhen said slowly. She liked infatuated men very much. When she heard about Xu Yuning, she started to have feelings for him.

“Then let’s go! We’ll go out and try our luck.” The two of them said and left. They didn’t expect there to be someone behind the door and heard what they said clearly.

Seeing that the two of them had left, Jiang Youyi hurriedly pushed Lu Yunxiao away and kept a distance between them.

“Um… one of them seems to be your die-hard fan,” Jiang Youyi said immediately to ease the awkwardness.

Lu Yunxiao didn’t answer her. Instead, he asked, “Today is Li Tianxin’s coming-of-age ceremony. Did you prepare a gift?”

“What do you think?” Jiang Youyi asked.

“I don’t think you’re such a meticulous person.” Lu Yunxiao smiled.

Jiang Youyi was about to retort when her phone rang. She took a look and saw that it was Xu Pingping.

“Sister Youyi, come back quickly! Everyone is giving gifts now. It will be bad for you if they don’t see you.”

“I’ll go over now,” Jiang Youyi said and hung up. Just as she was about to leave, Lu Yunxiao pulled her over.

“Why are you pulling me?” Jiang Youyi frowned in confusion.

“If you didn’t prepare a gift, I’ll help you.” Lu Yunxiao enunciated each word sincerely.

“This banquet seems to be targeted at me. Everywhere is a trap. It’s no different from a Hongmen Banquet. Not only do 1 have to close the trap, but I also have to give gifts? I’m afraid I’m not in good spirits. However, you’re right. If I don’t give anything, perhaps Mrs. Li will take revenge on me.”

Jiang Youyi was also very helpless.

“Then you…” Lu Yunxiao smiled slightly.

“Why don’t I give you to Miss Li and let her play?”

“Jiang Youyi!” Lu Yunxiao was almost angered to death by her. He really wanted to pinch her face.

“Hahaha… I was just joking.” Jiang Youyi felt that she had tricked Lu Yunxiao. She was so happy.

Then, the two of them left the fire escape and walked separately. No one realized that they had just been together. When they arrived at the banquet hall, they realized that everyone was in the middle. Jiang Youyi walked over.

She looked at Li Tianxin. After cutting the cake tower, the lights suddenly gathered on her. She was wearing a gown with silver sequins. When the lights shone on her, she looked very dazzling.

Bai Bing slowly walked to her side, holding a scroll in her hand. “Tianxin, this is for you. 1 wish you a happy coming-of-age ceremony and a happy day.”

Li Tianxin smiled faintly and took the scroll. Then, she unfolded it and showed it to everyone. The people here were all socialites and young masters. There were naturally many knowledgeable people. “Isn’t this the work of a modern painter, Mr. Lin?”

“This painting of mountains and rivers breaking through the dawn is simply too spiritual.”

“Miss Bai is really amazing! How did she even get this?”

Hearing everyone’s praise, Mrs. Li, who was standing beside Li Tianxin, nodded in satisfaction. The dawn of the mountains and rivers was very meaningful, indicating that it was like the sun in the sky. Li Tianxin’s father was Secretary Li, an official. Naturally, he liked paintings with such a meaningful meaning.

Officials looked like materialists, but in fact, they were very superstitious.

Bai Bing gave this painting not only to please Li Tianxin, but also to Secretary Li. She had put in a lot of effort. Xie Zhenzhen then walked up to Li Tianxin. “Tianxin, 1 know you like pink. This is a limited edition Hermes bag. It’s pink. You’ll definitely like it.”

“Thank you, Sister Zhenzhen!” Li Tianxin smiled and accepted the gift.

Xu Pingping also walked forward and took a heavy box from Xu Yuning. “This is a violin I customized overseas. I know you like to play the violin. I hope your violin skills will get better and better. Your name is engraved on it. This violin belongs to you.”

“Thank you, Sister Pingping. This gift is so expensive.” Li Tianxin knew that it must be very expensive to order a violin overseas. She opened the box and took out the violin. She caressed it. It felt so good.

If not for the fact that the banquet time was tight, she would have played a song now to experience the feeling of a custom-made violin.

After that, Xu Yuning gave her a longevity peach made of gold. This kind of thing was definitely not something a girl would like. It was obvious that he had taken the opportunity to give it to her father..
