C75 Straight to the Point

"You guys send Momo back to rest first. I still have something to discuss with Yem Sheng alone." Sheng Guilan waved her hand and Yem Momo was almost forcefully sent back to the room.

At first she was a little unwilling, "Mom, if there is anything you cannot say in front of me, I am not an outsider! Why must you chase me back!"

Sheng Guilan did not lose her temper and just looked at her indifferently, "Momo, do you still remember what I told you back then?"

Yem Momo stomped her feet and snorted but did not continue to pester and turned around to leave in a hurry.

The night wind was clear and cold but Yem Sheng blocked the door and did not have the intention to let Sheng Guilan in to speak.

Sheng Guilan was somewhat angry with Yem Sheng's actions but she pursed her lips and did not say anything.

"Thank you aunty for helping me out just now. It is late at night and it is not convenient for me to let aunty in to talk. The wind is strong outside so it is better to go back and rest to avoid catching a cold."

Although she had reached some kind of agreement with Sheng Guilan previously, Yem Sheng would not use Lih Shaochen's authority to make things difficult for the Yem family. Sheng Guilan would not touch Mrs Chan either, but their attitudes towards each other. It would only get worse and worse, and not become harmonious. Even if Sheng Guilan repeatedly expressed her goodwill, Yem Sheng would not appreciate it.

Yem Sheng's expression was cold. What happened during the day was enough to hurt her mind. Now, she really did not have the energy to deal with anyone. She was preparing to close the door. Sheng Guilan put her hand on the door, "Don't be in a hurry to chase them away. I just came to tell you something. Finish talking and leave. It will not delay you much."

"What is it?" Sheng Guilan came to look for him on her own accord. What good things could there be?

Sheng Guilan suddenly smiled and the shiny gemstone earrings slightly shook. The light was dazzling and her red lips moved slightly, "Yem Sheng, my good niece. Auntie knows because of the past. You are very prejudiced against our Yem family, but you must believe it. We have always regarded you as a part of the Yem family. In the past, you were... In the future. "

She wanted to hold Yem Sheng's hand and pat it to prove how sincere her words were.

Just as Sheng Guilan moved, Yem Sheng nimbly moved to the side to avoid her hand.

"You are talking to me, just get straight to the point. What exactly do you want to say?"

Sheng Guilan saw that Yem Sheng did not appreciate it and her originally smiling face instantly stiffened. But it was only for a moment and her tone eased up a lot. "Yem Sheng, it will be your birthday next week. It has been so many years, but I have never held a birthday banquet for you. The Yem family owes you for this. So this year... We need to do a big and special task to make up for all our previous regrets in one go. "

Her birthday banquet will be held in a week?

Yem Sheng was stunned. How many years had it been since her parents passed away? No one remembered her birthday ever again. And... She didn't even want to remember this day! This was a cursed, not a good day! She would never remember this day!

"Thank you, Auntie, for your good intentions. I appreciate it. I haven't had a birthday for so many years, so I won't miss this year."

Sheng Guilan shook her head and sighed, "Why do you have to be so stubborn, child? After so many lessons, you still can't remember a single thing. I came to talk to you about this matter, not to discuss it with you. I am here to inform you in advance. This birthday banquet, you celebrate, everyone is happy together. Even if you don't want to, it's not up to you!"

" Sheng Guilan! Don't go too far! You know better than me why I don't want to celebrate this birthday! "

"I advise you to behave yourself. No matter how useless I am, I will still be your aunt. You don't have the right to shout at me and call me by my name. " Sheng Guilan's willowy eyebrows wrinkled. Clearly, she was very dissatisfied with Yem Sheng's tone.

"It's your birthday. If you like it, then go. I will not attend." Yem Sheng took two steps back and prepared to close the door behind her.

"Okay, you can choose not to attend." Sheng Guilan blocked the door and her overbearing manner was not inferior to Yem Momo's. "You will be in charge of inviting Lih Shaochen over. It doesn't matter if you join or not."

Yem Sheng finally understood that the so-called birthday banquet was to compensate her. It was just a pretense. The real purpose was to welcome Lih Shaochen! He appeared in Yem family. Only then would Yem Momo have a better chance of getting his attention. As for whether Yem Sheng would attend the birthday banquet or not, it was not the main point.

"Alright, I can promise you, but you must also promise me one condition."

When Sheng Guilan heard that Yem Sheng wanted to raise a condition, she did not feel at ease and asked, "What do you want me to agree to? If it is a condition that is too excessive, I might not agree to it."

"Of course it will not be something that will make it difficult for you. You want to create an opportunity for Yem Momo, Lih Shaochen. I can give you a line, but you also have to let me see the person I want to see. Otherwise, I won't agree to this matter of yours. " Yem Sheng said as she looked at Sheng Guilan's expression. She discovered that her tightly furrowed brows had relaxed. When she completely relaxed, Yem Sheng also secretly let out a sigh of relief in her heart. It seemed that Mrs Chan was not in danger for the time being in her hands. Otherwise, Sheng Guilan would not have such an expression.

Sheng Guilan had already understood who Yem Sheng was referring to. "I did not expect that you would still be so loyal. But for an old servant who took care of you since young, you are actually willing to let Lih Shaochen out."

"Then do you agree or not?"

"Deal. It is just to let you take a look. What is there to be troubled about."

"Alright. Then I won't be sending you off." Yem Sheng closed the door and Sheng Guilan did not even have the time to finish her words.

"What an uncultured b * tch!" Sheng Guilan's stomach was full of anger. If it was not for the fact that she wanted to create an opportunity for Yem Momo to get along with Lih Shaochen, she would not be willing to have such a good conversation with Yem Sheng for so long and end up in a bad mood.

Sheng Guilan brought the people and left. The surrounding scenery was covered with a layer of hazy and cold moonlight and it was dreamlike and beautiful. "When the time comes, you will be the one to look good and see who laughs last."

Thirteen years ago, Yem family was happily making dumplings. Yem Sheng had never tried making dumplings with her own hands before and felt that it was novel and fun.

Father Yan took the camera and recorded her 12th birthday by the side. He laughed loudly, "Little Peanut, look at the camera."

Crack. Her face was covered with flour and her embarrassing look was taken. Yem Sheng angrily chased after Father Yan, "Quickly delete the photo! Today I am the birthday star, my biggest!"

Mother Yan brought over fragrant dumplings. Yem Sheng remembered to eat and forget to make a fuss. In the end, this matter was left unresolved.

The dumplings were fragrant and slippery. They were so delicious that they almost bit her tongue. Yem Sheng clamoured that she wanted another bowl.

Mama Yan said, "You are twelve years old this year. You can only eat twelve dumplings."

Yem Sheng had a look of regret, "Ah, that Mrs Chan has to eat dozens of dumplings for her birthday..."

The few of them were amused by her and laughed loudly.

That year, December 27th, was Yem Sheng's birthday and also Yem Sheng's parents' death anniversary.
