“21st” was a very familiar name, but the person who said it was quite unfamiliar.

Xing Jiuan looked at the man walking toward her, and the doubt in her eyes was obvious.

Lu Zhichen had a smile on his face. He looked different from how he used to look to the outside world. Instead, he looked exceptionally gentle.

“Long time no see.” Lu Zhichen approached Xing Jiuan but stopped a distance away from her.

Xing Jiuan had seen Lu Zhichen a few times in her previous life. Huo Chulan, the third daughter of the Huo family, liked this man so much that she couldn’t help herself. Although she felt that this affection was a little unusual, she thought that she was just overthinking.

However, Lu Zhichen did not seem to like Huo Chulan. In her previous life, there wasn’t much of an outcome between them even when she had passed away.

However, how did he know that affectionate name that her master and senior brothers and sisters used to address her?

They should not know each other.

Lu Mingxi was about to say something when he suddenly realized that Mu Qing’s expression was a little ugly.

With Qin Ge holding her arm, Xing Jiuan looked up at Lu Zhichen and did not speak.

“I…”

Mu Qing walked over and pulled Xing Jiuan to his side.

Lu Zhichen stopped before he could say anything.

“President Lu, we still have something on, so we won’t keep you company.” After Mu Qing said that, he left with Xing Jiuan.

Ever since Xing Jiuan returned to being nineteen years old, her reaction seemed to have slowed down. At this moment, she was led away by Mu Qing with a confused expression.

Lu Mingxi and the others followed hurriedly.

The people around them were still celebrating. Lu Zhichen watched Xing Jiuan and the rest leave. His lips curled up slightly. Even though Mu Qing had treated him like this, he was still in a good mood.

“We… have plenty of time.”

“Senior Brother, that person just now…” Xing Jiuan only remembered to ask after walking for a while.

Mu Qing recalled what had happened previously and looked a little unhappy.
