Eternal Painter Swordsman
72. The Birthday of Wu Ying II

Wu Tang looked like a man who was in his 50s, just like Huang Lixin and there were scars on his wrists and the corners of his eyes. His gaze looked sharp and his facial line was firm and hard.

This showed that this Wu Tang was not a person who would be easy to deal with if he were really their enemy.

A person like Wu Tang was a cold-hearted person, possessed of a strong will as well as ambitious, would not stop until his goal was achieved.

"Mr Huang came here himself, it is my fault for not coming to greet you ourselves, however we were friends in youth. " Tu Tang said kindly.

"Mr Wu praised me too much, after lingering for a long time at home. Can I even be compared to Master Wu ? My daughter has her own predicament so coming in late and having Miss Wu's birthday party hampered, it's my fault for not educating my daughter well. " Reply Huang Lixin politely.

"What are you talking about ? Just coming here is a good thing ! It was a pity that Ming Xiu was gone, if he could get together again it would be so good. " Wu Tang looked regretful over what befell his best friend.

Huang Lixin had indeed mentioned that the three of them, Wu Tang , had indeed mentioned , Huang Lixin and Ming Xiu were close friends while still in the Imperial Academy but over time and since they inherited their respective families and had children.

They started to meet less and Wu Tang became more busy with her married life, this was also what made their relationship a bit tenuous and awkward.

Huang Lixin was left to sit down and Huang Xinxin advanced forward while holding the gift she had prepared for Wu Ying.

"I have great admiration for the graceful and beautiful Miss Wu, if I could have a tenth of Miss Wu's talent then I would definitely be very grateful. I heard that Miss Wu likes Guqin then I ordered someone to make it special for Miss Wu. " Say Huang Xinxin softly.

"Miss Huang has praised me too highly, this gift I will take good care of. Miss Huang has the bravery equivalent of a hundred people. Dare to go forward and defend the truth, I fear that I don't even dare to be juxtaposed with Miss Huang. " Reply Wu Ying humbly and hold her hand.

Huang Xinxin smiled sweetly and looked around then looked at the corner and realized that there was Zhou Man here. It's good if the man doesn't mess up, otherwise he'll hit him.

"Wu Tang, you trained your daughter well. Even making my daughter very impressed with her, she is beautiful and has above-average courtesy. He will definitely get a good husband. " Say Huang Lixin.

"Ha ha ha, you also educate your daughter well. I heard that Miss Huang went to the battlefield as long as I went to the border and delivered food supplies, afraid that indeed my daughter is not worth comparing. " Reply Wu Tang.

"Don't insinuate like that, it's an embarrassing act for a girl. She is a girl but every day acts like a young man, it really makes me dizzy. " Say Huang Lixin.

"Miss Huang has a free soul, it is what many noble girls dream of. It's really rare, I'm even envious. " Said Wu Ying.

"Miss Wu, please don't envy me. In the future, I want to be friends with you. Please don't reject me. " Huang Xinxin replied with her sweet smile.

"Of course, being able to be Miss Huang's friend is a great blessing to me. " Said Wu Ying.

But it's okay, whether it's really an idiot or not, whether it's all based on the decisions of these fools. The party went well, it was a pity that there were two people who did not come to the event even though they had received an invitation. Wu Ying also regretted the absence of these two esteemed people.

Those were two people who were easy to guess, the first one was Jiu Rui and the second one was Ming Yue.

It was strange that Jiu Rui did not come, he usually came to the event of a big noble event like this especially this was the Wu Family who had a great deal of influence in the Capital.

While the others, Ming Yue, had very definitely not come. Even the Palace event alone he was lazy to come, especially to be friendly with others.

Suddenly there was a servant who entered with a letter in his hand and whispered to Wu Tang then Wu Tang nodded his head.

The servant opened the letter and read out the contents then realized that it was a letter from the Crown Prince to Wu Ying.

"Miss Wu , happy birthday, it's my fault for not being able to come to your place and celebrate your birthday. It's all because I'm in bad shape. Please understand me, Miss Wu. " Say the waiter.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is in a bad condition, please convey my concern. Please don't think about the show and focus on restoring your health, " Wu Ying said with an anxious face.

Huang Xinxin this time could see Wu Ying's face clearly and brightly, it was only visible once that he was feeling worried. It seemed, the feelings he had for Jiu Rui included being sincere.

Huang Xinxin felt strange from noticing that Jiu Rui was not feeling well while before it was still fine. It's so weird, he's gonna come to see the kid.

Although he initially felt hate for Jiu Rui but at this moment he realized that in this life, Jiu Rui had hardly done anything wrong and always tried his best for her, let him return the favor by comforting him.

Huang Xinxin had already disappointed Jiu Rui a lot in this life for the sake of her selfish desires, but she did not regret just feeling guilty for Jiu Rui who was a pity to be trapped in this game.

The course of the event went as it should have been then when the event was about to be finished, Xia Mei walked out and picked up a present for Wu Ying from inside her horse carriage.

"Thank you for the gift, Miss Xia. I thank the Young Master and Miss who have come here specifically to celebrate my birthday, this is my honor. " Said Wu Ying while bowing his head to the person who has come to his show.
