Sheng Jiu also heard their discussion. These people’s voices were not soft, and with her good hearing, she could naturally hear them clearly. So, Chu Ling’er had gone crazy? It seemed that Shen Xiuwen had found someone to pretend to be a ghost. The person who had killed the original owner of the body was already considered lucky for her to have just gone crazy.

Just as Sheng Jiu was thinking, a soft figure rushed over and hugged her. “Sheng Jiu, I’m so happy that you can come to my celebration party!”

“Miss Shen, let go of me first.” Sheng Jiu pushed her away subconsciously. He was afraid that Shen Miaomiao would bump into her chest. If that happened, she would be finished.

“What Miss Shen? Just call me Miaomiao, or Sister Miaomiao. I’m a year older than you.” Shen Miaomiao let go of Sheng Jiu and puffed up her cheeks, pretending to be angry.

“Congratulations on winning the piano competition. This is a gift for you.” Sheng Jiu quickly handed the gift box in her hand to Shen Miaomiao.

“Thank you for your gift, Sheng Jiu. You’re even more handsome than the last time I saw you! Your hair has grown longer, and you seem to have grown a little taller too. Compared to the gift you gave me, I want you to be my boyfriend more. Do you want to…” Shen Miaomiao hugged Sheng Jiu’s arm and said with a smile. Unfortunately, before she could finish speaking, Shen Xiuwen walked over from the side and said coldly, “Shen Miaomiao, it’s your turn to start the show.”

“Fourth Brother, I just want to talk to Sheng Jiu.” Shen Miaomiao pouted, obviously unwilling to leave her side.

“Are you going to stand everyone up at your celebration party?”

“I know, I know. Sheng Jiu, I’m going to the opening performance. Do you want to come with me? You don’t have to do anything. Just stay by my side.” Shen Miaomiao smiled sweetly at Sheng Jiu and seriously invited her to perform with her. Sheng Jiu was handsome and beautiful. The scene of the two of them sitting together must be very beautiful!

Sheng Jiu naturally noticed that Shen Miaomiao was looking forward to it. She was the main character today. Would she be sad if she rejected her directly? Just as she was hesitating, Shen Xiuwen’s cold voice rang out. “Sheng Jiu, don’t you know how to reject something you don’t want? Are you that stupid?” Shen Xiuwen really could not stand Sheng Jiu’s hesitation. Her face was clearly filled with unwillingness, but she could not say no. She did not look like a man at all. If she did not want to do it, she should not do it.

“Fourth Brother, don’t say that about Sheng Jiu. He’s not stupid!” Of course, Shen Miaomiao was speaking up for Sheng Jiu.

“Miaomiao, I won’t go with you.” Sheng Jiu chose to refuse. She really did not want to perform with Shen Miaomiao and be noticed by so many people.

Fortunately, Shen Miaomiao did not insist. “Alright, Sheng Jiu, wait for me obediently. I’ll come to you after playing two songs.” Then, she looked at Shen Xiuwen. “Fourth Brother, I’m going to the opening performance. Help me keep an eye on Sheng Jiu. Don’t let any other vixens take him away!”

After Shen Miaomiao left, Shen Xiuwen looked around and found that many girls were secretly sizing up Sheng Jiu. Some even winked at her. Shen Xiuwen laughed. “I didn’t expect you to be so popular.” Were fools so popular in girls’ hearts these days? Did they think that fools were brainless and easy to fool into bed? But looking at Sheng Jiu’s lack of masculinity, could such a man really do it in bed?

“Sheng Jiu, what kind of woman do you like?” Shen Xiuwen suddenly asked.

“I want juice.” Sheng Jiu chose not to answer such a meaningless question. She didn’t like any woman. She only liked tall, long-legged, and handsome men!

“He Sijun, take Little Fool to drink juice and keep an eye on him.” Shen Xiuwen called He Sijun over to accompany Sheng Jiu before walking to the side to make a call.

“Little Fool, your face is too popular. What kind of aesthetic standards do girls have these days? Do they like girly little fools?” He Sijun teased as he led Sheng Jiu away. Sheng Jiu ignored him and walked towards the drinks area.

He Sijun said, “Hey, Little Fool, don’t walk so fast.”

Sheng Jiu looked at He Sijun in disdain. “It’s your own fault for walking too slowly.”

“Little fool, how dare you despise my 1.8-meter-long legs!” After He Sijun drank two glasses of fruit juice with Sheng Jiu, he wanted him to drink with her. However, Sheng Jiu rejected him without hesitation. At that moment, a beautiful woman came to drink with him. Taking this opportunity, He Sijun abandoned Sheng Jiu and went to drink with her.
