Su Sheng looked at him like he was a stranger before taking back her gaze and raising the pearl in her hands even higher.
She bowed coquettishly to Lou Qufeng, âOfficial, this is eldest missâ birthday gift to you. This servant represents eldest miss to wish on you fortune like the Eastern sea, to live as long as the Southern mountains.â
Lou Qufengâs heart was about to melt from how soft and coquettish her tone was in half a moment, was actually dazed before regaining his senses.
He coughed to hide his loss of composure before accepting the pearl, âGood! Very good! Indeed, Qingwuâs very considerate, very considerate!â
His eyes fell on Su Sheng and he didnât even notice that heâd nearly accidentally gripped her white hands instead of the pearl.
However, the second madam Ruan Zhen whose face was dark and sinister didnât, and she pinched him before he came back to his senses again, awkwardly laughing, âAnd you are?â
Su Sheng covered her lips as she laughed, âServant girl is Su Wanâer, Iâm eldest missâ servant girl.â
âGood! Good!â It was like Lou Qufeng couldnât say anything else.
He could only stare dazedly at the beauty in front of him as he swallowed a few times.
Was she the real present that Lou Qingwu was giving to him for his birthday?
Good! Very good!
But his birthday present was suddenly blocked off by a tall figure.
Lou Qufeng dazedly blinked, âMu, Mu young official, what is it?â
Mu Yunqingâs face was deathly pale as he deeply sucked in a breath to make himself calm down.
However, his voice was still incredibly hoa.r.s.e, âLeft prime minister, young official still has some business and will leave first.â
âAh, good, good âŠ.
Mu Yunqing then turned around and darkened his handsome face as he swept up the girl behind him who was still smiling alluringly.
Everyone sucked in a breath and Lou Qufeng became even more dumbstruck.
This, what was happening? âMu young official, what are you doingâ
Mu Yunqing embraced Su Sheng but didnât turn around, he only slightly turned his head, âThis person, young official will first take. Iâll explain another day to the eldest miss.â
When he finished speaking, he didnât even turn around before leaving.
However, if you looked closely, you could see that his whole body was slightly trembling which gave off a certain sense of wildness and unease.
Mu Yunqing just took away the person like that which made Lou Qufeng open and close his mouth a few times, unable to speak before his face flashed anger.
What was up with him? To actually take his birthday gift like that, that was too âŠ
This was his birthday banquet after all, so it wouldnât be too good for him to start a fight with Mu Yunqing just like that.
After all, he had the Li family behind his back, wait, no, that old wily fox Li Miao definitely wouldnât let his daughter suffer any losses so he definitely would bring that girl back to him.
Thinking it through, Lou Qufeng then let his guests continue.
However, after seeing that show-stopping dance and hearing that alluring voice, the rest of the performances were like drinking plain water, they were dull and tasteless in comparison.
Li Jingsheng furrowed his brows deeply, what was Mu Yunqing thinking?
If this spread out, how could his Li residence have any face?
He actually dared to just embrace a dancer girl in front of the other court officials like that?
But thinking about that beautiful voice as well as that thin white waist, Li Jingsheng felt the fire in his body that had just been pressed down, suddenly leap up again.
He ferociously downed more wine but the fire couldnât be surpressed any more.
He reached into his bosom for the piece of paper and rubbed it before his heart moved a bit.
He lifted up his head and looked deeply in Lou Lianxinâs direction before swaying as he stood up, walking towards the rear courtyard.
EVeryone still hadnât recovered from Su Sheng so no one noticed Li Jingsheng soundlessly leaving.
At the same time, Lou Qingwu was notified of Su Sheng being embraced and taken away by Mu Yunqing.
So she decided to head towards the banquet, but she only took two steps before ten or so black-clothed people suddenly appeared in front of her.
They struck the back of her head and Lou Qingwu froze before fainting.

Cliffhanger. Su Sheng and Lou Qingwu were both s.n.a.t.c.hed ha.
