Thinking about it over and over, they couldn’t figure it out, but it gave everyone an opportunity.

Thus, after the news that Shen Zhou was going to hold a grand birthday banquet at Yunmeng Villa, the whole Jiangzhou’s heart was stirred.

The young talents and new rich of Jiangzhou, all together, were nothing compared to the legend of Shen Zhou.

With an unrivaled net worth, gentle elegance, clean self-discipline, filial piety and kindness, the unparalleled good man who combined all the advantages was once sought after by many young ladies in Jiangzhou. However, as the years passed, Mrs. Shen’s position remained vacant.

Liu Yaxin of the Liu family, who had sealed the demon for Shen Zhou, had also given up and recently married a small security guard, becoming the talk of the town in Manjiangzhou for half a month.

Shen Zhou, who is now thirty-six years old, is still single. Those young ladies who once had fantasies gradually extinguished their thoughts on him and proceeded with their relationships and marriages.

But this time, Shen Zhou changed his style and held a grand birthday banquet, and the sensitive people had already smelled an unusual atmosphere.Visitt novelbin(.)co/m for the latest updates

If something abnormal happens, there must be a demon. Maybe Shen Zhou has changed his mind and wants to choose an ideal partner through this banquet.

Now Jiangzhou became lively. The beauty salons were full of people, and the young ladies were preparing for the upcoming birthday banquet.

Speaking of Shen Zhou’s big budget, almost everyone in Jiangzhou, big and small, with connections or not, had received invitations.

Looking at the invitation brought to him by Uncle Wen, Zhu Wentao was stunned for a moment.

“This is... Shen Zhou’s invitation?”

Uncle Wen replied, “Yes, sir. September 20th, Yunmeng Villa, Elder Theodore Shelby celebrates his seventy-first birthday.”

Why is he suddenly having such a big celebration now?

Zhu Wentao thought it was a bit strange. “Which families in Jiangzhou have received invitations?”

Uncle Wen replied, “Almost all the reputable families have received them. This time Mr. Shen is going to make a big deal. I heard that he has even invited a theatrical troupe. Elder Shelby loves to listen to the opera, and it seems that they are going to sing a three-day-long opera. I don’t know what the purpose is.” Uncle Wen was also puzzled.

Zhu Xiangxiang’s mouth slightly turned up, she whispered, “Ming Jing looks nothing like you, mom, and grandma. She’s too beautiful. If it weren’t for the DNA paternity test, I would really suspect she’s not mom’s biological child. Of course, Ming Jing couldn’t possibly bribe a private detective to forge the paternity test...”

Zhu Wentao’s face suddenly darkened. That’s right. How could he not think of that?

All this time, the strange feeling in his heart finally found a reasonable explanation. Ming Jing’s appearance indeed had no resemblance to any of the Zhu family members. He had never thought about it before, but today Zhu Xiangxiang pointed it out, and he suddenly became alert to a possibility.

The more he investigated, the more suspicious it became. He even became convinced of it in his heart.

To a businessman who is only after profit, what is kinship, especially an unraised daughter? It’s not as reliable as the interests at hand.

Zhu Wentao hurriedly went upstairs. He needed to think carefully about this matter.

Watching Zhu Wentao’s hurried departure, Zhu Xiangxiang’s lips curled slightly.

If anyone in the Zhu family hated Ming Jing the most, it must be Zhu Wentao now.

Ming Jing snatched his company, causing his prestige to be swept away, and the once so proud Zhu Wentao couldn’t possibly tolerate it.

People’s hearts are like a net, the more you pull, the bigger the holes get.

People only believe what they want to believe, and Zhu Wentao is more willing to believe that one percent chance. Human nature tells her that Zhu Wentao will turn that one percent into one hundred percent.

By doing so, she could sit back and reap the benefits.

“Master Xiao, Shen Zhou’s invitation.” Ye Jian respectfully handed it over.

Ran Tengxiao opened it, glanced at it, and raised his eyebrows with a smile.

“Shen Zhou is interesting. People like him, orthodox businessmen, are never willing to have any connection with our Ran family. But now he has sent me an invitation, he wants to announce it to everyone.”

“Announce what?” Ye Jian asked curiously.

Ran Tengxiao narrowed his eyes, “We’ll know soon.”

What person or matter could it be that is worthy of the old fox, Shen Zhou, to go to such great lengths?
