Once the hair clip was wrapped, Lu Mian took it and casually shoved the black card into her pants pocket.

She wandered out of the mall with a sloppy air.

Xinhua Bookstore was opposite the mall.

She paused, crossed the road slowly, and walked in.

Lu Mian liked to read all kinds of books for leisure. Every time she passed by a bookstore, she would always go in and take a look regardless if it was a big bookstore or a small magazine house.

However, she was also very picky when it came to books. She would search one by one and it would be hard to find a novel that she liked.

She left empty-handed again.

Fu Man and Lu Xinnuan left the mall at the same time, carrying a few shopping bags in their hands as they stood next to the car.

Fu Man felt apologetic when she saw that Lu Mian had returned. “Mianmian, I’ll bring you out again next time. It’s more urgent for your sister because she has to go to the Su family tomorrow…”

Lu Mian smiled. “No need.”

She got into the back seat automatically and sat frivolously, covering the hair clip box with her body. It blocked Lu Xinnuan’s prying eyes from the box.

…

Since it was a weekend the next day, Lu Xinnuan changed into a small dress early. By noon, she had applied light makeup.

“Nuannuan, get ready quickly. Your uncle and aunt will be here soon…”

The second family was taking Lu Xinnuan to the Su family’s private banquet today. It was also a reception party for Old Mr. Su.

As they were talking, they could hear the footsteps of Lu Xingtang and Fei Jinlan coming from the living room.

Lu Xingtang was well-maintained and handsome at the age of forty-eight. Although he had been immersed in the business industry for years, he still maintained a good physique and appearance.

Fei Jinlan came from a famous family too. She carried herself with elegance and dignity. One could tell with one glance that she was a noble mistress of a great family.
