Cheng Xiao saw that these two men actually ignored her when she brought up the topic. Instead, they were asking Cheng Ling. This made her feel a little awkward and at a loss.

She continued the topic, “Yes, Sister is older than me by a month, so Sister’s 18th birthday is before mine.”

Cheng Xiao always liked to speak to them in a soft voice.

She felt that men should like delicate girls with such a soft voice. However, this sounded ear-piercing to Lu Qi, as It was not natural at all.

He looked at Cheng Xiao and said, “Miss Cheng, you always call Cheng Ling Sister. I wonder if you know when her birthday is?”

This really stumped Cheng Xiao. Who cared what day Cheng Ling’s birthday was?

But if she couldn’t answer, then wouldn’t the sisterhood that she had painstakingly fabricated in front of the two of them be destroyed?

She pretended to think for a moment and then said a date.

Lu Xiu was also interested to know. Cheng Xiao always spoke up for Cheng Ling, calling her Sister.

He looked at Cheng Ling. “Cheng Ling, is Miss Cheng’s date correct?”

Cheng Ling shook her head. This table was her home turf, so she would not be polite to Cheng Xiao.

Wouldn’t it be a loss not to bully the prey that was delivered to her door?

Cheng Xiao was not surprised at all. She was just making it up.

“I’m really sorry, Sister. As we don’t lavishly celebrate your birthday every time, we sometimes forget it. This year, for your 18th birthday, I will tell Dad and Mom to give you a birthday party.”

Cheng Xiao’s words seemed to be apologetic. But in fact, she was telling Lu Qi and Lu Xiu that Cheng Ling was not a favored person in their family.

No one even remembered her birthday.

Hearing Cheng Xiao’s words, Cheng Ling sneered.

“Holding a birthday party for me? Are you wishing me a happy birthday or cursing me to die early?”

“This… Sister, why would you say that? Of course, we are sincerely concerned for your well-being.”

“If it’s really so, your whole family should stay away from me. This way, I will be very grateful to you.”

Cheng Xiao did not expect Cheng Ling to be so bold.

She recalled the experience that Xie Wan had taught her. Men were most afraid of girls crying, especially when they cried and spoke aggrievedly. It would make men’s hearts ache and soften.

Thus, she became aggrieved again. Her acting skills were so good that she wanted Lu Xiu to give her an award.

“Sister, do you hate me very much? Why do you always treat me in such a way?”

Cheng Xiao’s words seemed to be directed at Cheng Ling, but in fact, she was saying it for Lu Xiu to hear. She hoped that Lu Xiu would say something to help her.

However, Xie Wan’s teaching was indeed wrong.

Lu Qi and Lu Xiu had worked hard since they were young, and they hated people who cried the most.

Therefore, they were very indifferent to Cheng Xiao’s crying and the two drops of tears that had been rolling in their eyes for a long time.

Cheng Ling just sneered and continued to drink the wine in her glass.

Lu Xiu couldn’t stand it anymore, so he said tactfully.

“Miss Cheng, I saw that your mother seemed to be looking for you just now. Do you want to go over and see what’s going on?”

Hearing Lu Xiu’s words, Cheng Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.

Cheng Ling’s frankness indeed made her unable to stay here any longer. She was looking for an excuse to leave quickly. Thus when she heard Lu Xiu say this, she put down her wine glass.

Of course, she still had one last trick up her sleeve.

“I seem to be a little dizzy after drinking a little red wine.”

She placed her hand on her forehead and rubbed it.

When she stood up, she lost her balance and was about to fall to the place where Lu Xiu was sitting.

The plot was about to succeed. Cheng Xiao’s lips were curling up, waiting for Lu Xiu to catch her. She didn’t expect Lu Xiu’s reaction to be so fast. He was still sitting, but he had already moved back with his chair.

Cheng Xiao had calculated the position, but now she fell straight to the ground.

This was very eye-catching. The surrounding guests all looked over.

Cheng Xiao quickly lowered her head and hid her embarrassed expression using her hair. She then stood up.

The guests all came forward to show concern to her. Lu Xiu had already stood up.

“Miss Cheng, I’m sorry. I saw something fall, so I subconsciously avoided it. Are you okay?”

Something? Was she a thing?!

Cheng Xiao hurriedly patted her dress and shook her head.

“I’m fine. I was the one who lost my footing just now.. It’s not Brother Xiu’s fault.”
