Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Watching Wei Shisheng’s actions, those present grew even more curious about Alfredo’s identity, initially suspecting he was from the Wei family, yet it was clear this man was not one of them.

“Cousin, let me take you to meet Old Mr. Ou; he has been waiting for you for a long time.”

Wei Shisheng led Alfredo away from the banquet hall. Mu Chengxi did not watch them leave but instead lowered his head to look at the little woman in his arms.

He was certain that Wen Xin’s body stiffened when that man appeared, and from the look in her eyes, it was clear she was very repulsed by him.

“Do you… know him?”

“Yes, I know him. He’s the Independent State’s chairman, Alfredo.”

Wen Xin didn’t want to hide his identity. Based on Mu Chengxi’s identity and status, he should not be a stranger to him.

Mu Chengxi looked at Wen Xin as if he wanted to say more, but she stopped him, pressing her finger to his lips and sighing softly.

“Let’s talk about his and Independent State’s matters later when we get back. It’s a bit complicated.”

Wen Xin looked up at Mu Chengxi, her eyes slightly reddened, and Mu Chengxi knew she was struggling to control her emotions.

Mu Chengxi raised his hand to embrace Wen Xin, his chin resting on her forehead, and softly responded, “Okay…”

The unique light mint scent from Mu Chengxi helped stabilize Wen Xin’s emotions. She gripped the sides of his clothing tightly, resting her head against his chest, and took a deep breath.

Alfredo and Wei Shisheng left the venue, and as they went upstairs, Alfredo discreetly withdrew his arm, his deep blue eyes flashing a dangerous light.

“Didn’t I tell you before? I don’t want others to know about our relationship..

Hearing Alfredo’s words, Wei Shisheng paused her steps, turning to face him with confusion in her deep blue eyes.

“Cousin, if I am a member of the Payten family in Independent State, why can’t our relationship be disclosed? Finding me, don’t you want to acknowledge me?”

Standing on the staircase, Wei Shisheng looked up at Alfredo, unable to understand why he sought her out yet kept their distance.

Hearing Wei Shisheng’s question, Alfredo bent down to her level, his lips curling slightly in a cold and distant tone.

“Your father is a Payten, but you are not. You’re merely his illegitimate daughter, not listed in the Payten family tree. If your father wants to see you, he must leave Independent State. You don’t have the right to enter the

Independent State.”

Previously, Alfredo hadn’t anticipated Wei Shisheng’s greed, so he hadn’t explained the rules of Independent State after revealing her identity, possibly leading her to misunderstand that she was the eldest daughter of the Payten family.

“Why didn’t you say so earlier?” Wei Shisheng looked at Alfredo, angry and embarrassed. Upon learning of her identity, she had envisioned a bright future for herself, but now, the man before her had declared it all a dream, an unacceptable reality. How could she accept this?

“I don’t care. Even if I have no right to enter Independent State, today I hope you can play along in a show with me as compensation for the Payten family’s years of neglect.”

Wei Shisheng’s gaze was resolute, seeing this as her only chance. If she couldn’t seize this moment to change Madame Mu’s opinion, her chances with Mu Chengxi would likely vanish forever.

Seeing how anxious Wei Shisheng was, Alfredo suddenly became interested in what she wanted to do. He raised an eyebrow.” Sure, only today.”

After speaking, Alfredo turned and headed upstairs. He had come to attend the birthday celebration, not to waste time with Wei Shisheng here. He had other matters to attend to, such as taking Wen Xin away.

Mu Chengxi, with Wen Xin, sat down on a sofa in the rest area. Ling Yichen, accompanied by Ling Xu’er, took a seat opposite them, while Liang Luoyu and Mu Bei sat down on another sofa. Everyone seemed lost in thought. fr(e)ewebn(o)vel

“Why would he suddenly come to the capital? And what’s his relationship with Wei Shisheng? Chengxi, have you heard anything?” Ling Yichen, unable to contain his curiosity any longer, asked.

“I don’t know about him, but I know a bit about Wei Shisheng’s identity. My grandfather brought Wei Shisheng home years ago, and she had a foreign surname, Payten.”

“Payten? Isn’t that Alfredo’s family? Your grandfather brought Wei Shisheng back from the Independent State?”

Ling Yichen’s voice carried a tone of surprise. He had never thought that Wei Shisheng would have such an identity. If that was the case, Wei Shisheng’s position in the capital was already established.

The connection between the Wei family and Independent State was not a secret in the capital. Although the Wei family’s influence in the capital was not as strong as the Mu family’s, they were the only family with connections to

Independent State, a partnership even the Mu family had never established.

It could also be said that the Mu family had always refused to cooperate with the Independent State.

Mu Chengxi mentioned, “It was only today, when I saw Wei Shisheng calling Alfredo ‘cousin,’ that I connected their relationship. I hadn’t thought much about it before.

Mu Chengxi’s gaze remained on Wen Xin, concerned about her state. Since Alfredo’s appearance, Wen Xin’s aura had become visibly more hostile. Now silent, it was unclear what she was thinking.

At that moment, Ou Zhengfeng entered the banquet hall with dignity, assisted by Ou Jinzhi. Accompanying them were Old Madam Mu, Old Master Wei, and several elders from notable families.

Among them, Alfredo, who had just left the venue, reappeared.

The presence of Alfredo among these distinguished individuals led everyone to immediately conclude that his status was significant, to be seated alongside such esteemed company.

As the birthday host, Ou Zhengfeng took the stage to offer some polite remarks before announcing the start of the banquet.

As the banquet began, the first order of business for all attendees was to present their birthday gifts and offer sincere wishes.

Midway through the banquet, Wei Shisheng, pulling Alfredo along, approached Mu Chengxi’s table to greet him.

“Chengxi, let me introduce you. This is my cousin, the chairman of

Independent State, Alfredo. I invited him to Old Mr. Ou’s banquet.”

After Wei Shisheng’s introduction, there was no immediate reaction from anyone at the table. Just as she was feeling awkward and at a loss, Liang Luoyu couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

“Miss Wei… oh, we should probably address you as Miss Payten now, right? What’s your relation to the Ou family? What gives you the right to invite Mr.

Alfredo to Old Mr.. Ou’s banquet?”
