The adopted daughter of the Mu Family could actually step over the Mu Family’s biological daughter and hold a grand birthday party at the Mu
Family’s old residence, so many people remembered the name Mu Ning.
Night gradually fell. When Wen Xi and the others arrived at the Mu Family’s old residence, they surrounded Mu Ning, who was on the second floor.
Mu Ning enjoyed the flattery.
The last time at the Huo Family’s birthday banquet, she had left dejectedly. This time, she had regained her dignity.
Mu Ning looked around and at the guests downstairs. Her originally happy face became even happier.
As expected, the two seniors Mu Kun and Sun Yun could control the situation
The current head of the Wen Family, Wen Cheng, came with his wife and heir, Wen Xi and Wen Ying. There was also the second branch of the Wen Family, Wen Shuo, and Wei Xing with their daughter, Wen Zhi.
It was within her expectations that Lu Xiao and Lu Yue from the Lu family would come. She heard that Lu Zheng was still imprisoned, so Meng Shu naturally would not appear-
Lu Jin and her husband were Lu Yan’s parents. Lu Yan was on good terms with Lin Yin, so she naturally wouldn’t come here.
Lu Ming and Lin Yin had always been on good terms. Even though she had heard that the two of them had become much colder recently, with Lu Ming’s personality, it was normal for him not to come. Old Master Lu and Mu Kun were not on good terms, so he would not come either.
The Yue Family’s brothers, Yue Xi and Yue Nan, were all here. There was also the generation beneath them. Everyone who could come was here. Yue Chi, Yue Ning, and even Yue Han were here.
The people from the third branch of the Wei family came, but Ning Sheng from the second branch of the Wei Family was close to Lin Yin. Mu Ning smiled coldly. It seemed like the people from the second branch of the Wei Family were not on her side.
Yue Shan was the one who personally brought Huo Huai, Huo Ge, and Huo Bing to the Huo Family. This surprised Mu Ning.
She still remembered how much Yue Shan despised her and favored Lin Yin at the Huo Family’s banquet last time.
Unexpectedly, Yue Shan was just a fence sitter. She knew that her birthday banquet was organized by her grandparents, so she abandoned Lin Yin and came to her banquet.
Other than Gong Ze and Gong Han, almost everyone from the Gong Family was here. Even Old Master Gong and his wife were here.
The situation of the Hou Family and the Gong Family was not much different. Other than the younger Hou Zong who did not come, the two branches of the Hou Family, including the heir, Hou Min, also came.
If the eight great families were like this, there was no need to mention the small families below.
When they knew that almost everyone from the Eight Great Families came to the Mu Family’s old residence, those small families had smartly followed suit.
Yue Ning looked at the people below and smiled. “Mu Ning, you’re still the one who’s respected. It’s just your 19th birthday, but you could actually lure those big shots who don’t show their faces all year round. This Lin Yin is probably going to be embarra.s.sed, right?”
Gong Yue echoed, “That’s right. When I came over just now, I specially went to the Mu family’s villa. Guess what happened? It’s all the small families with no reputation. It seems like Ah Ning is more stable in the position of the eldest daughter of the Mu family. So what if Lin Yin is biological?”
Mu Ning said with a smile, “Don’t say that. Everyone came to my birthday banquet today because of my grandparents. I’m grateful that my grandparents dote on me. It’s just that I’m a little regretful that my parents didn’t come.”
“What’s there to regret? You don’t have to care about those parents who don’t care about you. Today, you’ll let them see that without the Mu family as their backing, even Lin Yin’s parents won’t be able to gain anything.” Lu Yue said.
Mu Ning’s eyes were gentle as she said, “Alright, let’s not talk about it. The banquet is about to start. I’m going to touch up my makeup now. See you later.” Everyone nodded and left, while Mu Ning called Lin Yin smugly.
When she heard the sound from the other end, Mu Ning’s voice immediately carried a hint of fear. “Sister, I called you to apologize. I thought that even if I held a birthday banquet with Sister, most of the families in the Capital would only choose to attend Sister’s birthday banquet. I didn’t expect them to come to me. I’m really sorry, Sister. I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Lin Yin listened to Mu Ning’s obvious bragging on the other end of the line and smiled disdainfully. “Congratulations.”
“Sister, you’re just saying that out of anger, right? Believe me, I really didn’t expect things to turn out like this. I think those people must have done it for Grandpa and Grandma’s sake, right? Mom and Dad are juniors after all. It’s normal for them to not be able to compete with Grandpa and Grandma, don’t you think so, Sister?” Mu Ning’s tone was extremely arrogant..
