After abandoning his wife and children, Bo Xilai coaxed and begged her to reconcile.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Bo Sinian standing at the door, with his outstanding features and noble temperament, and next to him was his huge personal accessory - Song Zhaoyun.

The moment Song Zhaoyun saw Song Jinye, the elegant expression on his face crumbled for a second, and he tightened his grip on Bo Sinian's hand.

Bo Sinian glanced down at her, a hint of helplessness and indulgence in his eyes, and gently patted her hand.

Then his gaze swept lightly over Song Jinye, casting her a deep, unfathomable darkness, as if blaming her for being there.

Jiang Yiran glared at Zhou Chu, who also came in through the door. Why did you invite this spoilsport in?

Zhou Chu looked bewildered. "I didn't know you would bring Song Jin along."

Zhou Yao, unaware of their complicated history, cheerfully arranged for them to take their seats, "I heard that Brother Sinian and Sister Zhaoyun's wedding date has been set, congratulations!"

Song Zhaoyun sat down next to Bo Sinian, gently rubbing his forearm with her fingertips. Her eyes were slightly upturned, with a hint of hidden pride in her smile. "Thank you for your kind words. We are preparing to hold our wedding on the island. We will definitely invite you to the wedding banquet."

Jiang Yiran secretly rolled her eyes at her; this show-off was clearly provoking Song Jinye.

It was known that Bo Sinian and Song Jin had secretly married back then and had not held a wedding ceremony.

They've already started publicizing their divorce so openly, even though there are still more than six months left in the divorce proceedings.

She glanced at Song Jinye discreetly, and only felt relieved when she saw that Song Jinye showed no sign of distress.

A sense of respect for Song Jin welled up in my heart—no wonder she was her sister, she could take things on and let them go!

Actually, Song Zhaoyun came here to support his cousin Xu Xiaoxi.

Xu Xiaoxi has had a crush on Zhou Yao for a long time and has decided to confess her feelings to him tonight.

Bo Sinian happened to have a dinner party next door, so Zhou Chu dragged him over with him.

Encouraged by Song Zhaoyun's gaze, Xu Xiaoxi stood in front of Zhou Yao, her cheeks slightly flushed, her eyes darting around yet determined.

Holding the birthday gift she had prepared for him, she mustered her courage and said, "Ah Yao, happy birthday! These cufflinks are a gift from me; I hope you like them."

She paused, then added, "I've liked you for a long time."

Zhou Yao was caught off guard by her sudden confession, but his friends, one by one, came over to join in the fun.

"Wow, these cufflinks are so exquisite! They're definitely designer pieces!"

"The antique-style cufflinks are inlaid with warm and beautiful jade and engraved with auspicious blessing patterns, showing understated luxury! Miss Xu has put so much thought into this."

"One is engraved with a ruyi (auspicious) pattern, and the other with a longevity and fortune pattern, both conveying blessings of peace, joy, and smooth sailing. The attention to detail is remarkable..."

Song Jin felt increasingly uneasy as she listened. How could this be so similar to the pair of cufflinks she had specially designed for Bo Sinian and put on a second-hand platform for sale a couple of days ago?

She looked up to confirm, but unexpectedly met Bo Sinian's dark and deep eyes. His thin lips were pressed into a cold, hard line, as if he were about to smile but couldn't.

Song Jin's heart skipped a beat, and she guiltily looked away.

Bo Sinian casually reached out and picked up the pair of cufflinks, examining them for a moment. "These cufflinks are quite unique. Where did you buy them? How much did they cost?"

As soon as he asked that question, several pairs of eyes in the private room turned to him simultaneously—it was indeed a rather presumptuous question.

Song Zhaoyun was somewhat surprised, as it was rare for Bo Sinian to take a liking to something. She said softly, "You like it? I'll buy it for you."

Bo Sinian did not answer, but looked at Xu Xiaoxi, waiting for her reply.

When Xu Xiaoxi saw that Bo Sinian had approved her gift, her face lit up with surprise and her eyebrows and eyes couldn't help but lift up.

But remembering that she bought it secondhand, her gaze flickered, and she clenched her fingers, forcing a smile as she said, "Brother-in-law, you like this style too? It seems to be a custom-made one; I had to ask someone to get it for me. Let me ask around and see if they have any similar styles."

Bo Sinian put the cufflinks back, his tone ambiguous, "No need."

He belatedly realized that he had interrupted Xu Xiaoxi's confession, "Sorry, please continue."

Xu Xiaoxi looked at Zhou Yao shyly again, her eyes bright yet flustered, her expression tense and cautious.

Zhou Yao glanced at Song Jinye casually, but only for a brief moment before looking away. He then rejected the girl in front of him, saying, "I'm sorry, I've always considered you a friend."

When cutting the cake, he gave Song Jinye the most exquisite piece, his clear eyes filled with undisguised flattery, "Sister Ye, this cake has 100% positive reviews, would you like to try it?"

Song Jin also stood up and took the cake, her eyes sparkling with a soft light, her voice clear and soothing, "Thank you!"

She politely took a bite and praised, "The flavor is rich and layered, slightly sweet but not cloying, it's delicious."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yao couldn't help but smile, his face, brimming with youthful spirit, blossoming with intense interest. "I'm glad you like it."

Jiang Yiran had something to say to Zhou Chu, so she gave her seat to Zhou Yao.

She patted Zhou Yao on the shoulder and said, "Take good care of my sister for me."

No one knows what Song Jin said, but Zhou Yao stared at her with an astonishingly bright dark eye, clearly becoming her fanboy.

Upon seeing this, Xu Xiaoxi's sweet smile froze, her hands hanging at her sides clenched tightly, and her eyes were filled with intense jealousy and resentment.

That bitch! She fought with my cousin for Bo Sinian back then, and now she's trying to steal Zhou Yao from her. She's shameless.

Her gaze, sharp as a needle, fell upon Song Jinye, and she slowly said, "Song Jinye, I heard that you recently went on a blind date and fell for President Li, who has been divorced three times. Why don't you bring him along to introduce him to everyone? It would be nice to have some fun together."

Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at Song Jinye, their gazes filled with a mixture of sighs, amusement, and surprise.

Zhou Yao's joy froze, the light in his eyes dimmed slightly, and he kindly reminded her in a slightly trembling voice, "That President Li seems to have a history of domestic violence. Sister Ye, you should find out more about him."

Song Jin nodded slightly. "Thank you."

Then she lazily raised her eyebrows at Xu Xiaoxi, a nonchalant smile playing on her lips, her expression aloof and composed. "Heared? You think you understand me based on other people's opinions? Is your head just for growing taller?"

"You!" Being mocked in front of her crush, Xu Xiaoxi was both ashamed and angry. "How dare you do it but not admit it? Do you dare say you didn't go on a blind date with President Li?"

Song Jin glanced at Song Zhaoyun and sighed inwardly. They could have lived peacefully together, but he had to resort to underhanded tactics.

Then don't blame her for being impolite.

"I did go on a blind date with President Li, and I also went on a blind date with the young master of the Chen family..." Song Jin said calmly and frankly.

Everyone was astonished.

Xu Xiaoxi never expected her to actually admit it, even revealing that she had gone on a blind date with the mentally challenged man from the Chen family. It was a classic case of protesting too much. What normal, decent girl would go on a blind date with a mentally challenged man?

A hint of triumph lingered on her young, unpredictable face as she waited to see everyone look at Song Jin with disdain and contempt.

Song Jin smiled faintly, her smile pure and gentle, like a spring breeze brushing across a hillside, bright and serene.

"I can't refuse the arrangements made by Madam Song."

Upon hearing this, Song Zhaoyun's expression immediately changed. "What nonsense are you spouting!"

Everyone was still skeptical, wondering why Old Madam Song would arrange for someone like that to go on a blind date with Song Jinye.

But seeing how excited Song Zhaoyun was, it seemed like it was for real.

It was rumored in the early years that Song Jin was also an illegitimate child, and that Madam Song did not acknowledge this granddaughter at all.

It's understandable that Madam Song hated the mother and daughter, but never cared about them.

But now it's obvious they're trying to drag Song Jin into the fire pit too, which is rather malicious.
