Li Muchen already knew her likes and enjoyed preparing little surprises for her in daily life.
So when she got the dress, Lu Sheng didn’t think too much, and after taking a bath, she put on the dress.
To match the dress, she applied simple makeup and wore the pearl earrings that Li Muchen had given her before, then she left the room.
At this moment, the living room outside had already become lively, with Han Jing and Lan Yu having arrived and chatting with Lu Youming and Lu Youye.
On the sofa sat Lu Qianrou and a girl, whispering something quietly.
Lu Sheng glanced over, and the girl seemed to be the so-called internet celebrity, Yao Xuantong, probably invited by Lu Qianrou.
But when Lu Qianrou saw her, the look in her eyes was not the usual hostility, but rather a gleaming excitement, almost like she couldn’t hide it.
Lu Sheng frowned slightly, not knowing what Lu Qianrou was up to this time or what scheme she might be plotting.
But she didn’t want to bother guessing her thoughts.
As Lu Sheng appeared among the crowd, Lan Yu and the others immediately showed undisguised amazement upon seeing her.
Lu Sheng usually wore school uniforms and only casual T-shirts and shorts on days off; she rarely dressed up deliberately.
But now, the girl had her black hair up, with slightly curled bangs hanging beside her temples, and her face looked even smaller framed by the pearl earrings.
The square-neck strapped long dress accentuated her delicate shoulders and collarbones, revealing her fair and slender neck and perfectly outlined her slim waist.
Although wearing only light makeup, her delicate facial features made her look eye-catching despite the apparent casualness.
"My God, Shengbao you look so beautiful tonight!" Lan Yu couldn’t help approaching her and immediately corrected herself, "No, you are always stunning, but this dress really suits you!"
Lu Sheng indeed suited red, obviously Lu Youming and Lu Youye thought so too.
However, when Lu Siyan came downstairs and saw Lu Sheng, he noticeably paused looking at her dress.
"...What’s wrong, second brother?" Lu Sheng looked down at herself, puzzled, "Is there something on me?"
Lu Siyan seemed to be reminded of something, and his elegant eyebrows slightly furrowed. However, just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Lu Ziye who had just come downstairs.
"My darling sister, casually dressed up and already shining like a star ready for debut," Lu Ziye saw Lu Sheng, smiled, and playfully ruffled her hair.
Tonight, Lu Ziye wore a thin white knitted shirt with casual trousers, his hair slightly messy, and the blue diamond earring in his right ear sparkling, dazzling even in his casual attire.
Seeing Lu Ziye’s reaction, Lu Siyan’s furrowed brow finally relaxed.
When Lu Sheng asked him again what was wrong, he finally replied, "Nothing much, just thought of something."
Lu Siyan’s voice remained cool, looking over at Lu Jingyan who was making a phone call in the great hall, then turned to Lu Sheng, "Has Mr. Li not arrived yet?"
Speaking of Li Muchen, Lu Sheng also found it strange.
Considering how much Li Muchen valued tonight’s gathering, he should have arrived earlier than others.
Lu Sheng subconsciously reached for her phone, only to remember she hadn’t taken it out from the room.
