Qin Sitong was a Dijing native, after all, so she had heard some rumors about Sheng Yang and his friends.
They were members of the four great families, so their every move was always under scrutiny.
No matter what they did, someone was always there to post gossip about it right away.
"They’re all from Dijing, and you are too, so you’ve probably heard their names somewhere before.
Don’t worry about it if you can’t remember. We’re here to have fun, so don’t overthink things."
Yun Zijin didn’t think it was right to tell Qin Sitong the truth about Sheng Yang and the others’ identities, so she just brushed it off with a vague excuse.
Fortunately, Qin Sitong wasn’t the type to press the issue. Since Yun Zijin said so, she didn’t ask any more questions.
"Come on, everyone! A toast to my bar’s grand opening!"
Seeing that Yun Zijin had arrived, Sheng Yang stood up, raised his glass, and got everyone to toast together.
"Cheers!"
Su Mengyao was the first to respond, though the drink in her hand was just a low-alcohol fruit wine.
Yun Zijin also picked up the fruit wine in front of her and raised it for the toast.
Qin Sitong didn’t know what was going on, but she followed Yun Zijin’s lead and raised her glass of juice.
"Congratulations on the opening! Cheers!"
Li Yue Xuan and the others, wanting to show Sheng Yang respect, all raised their glasses in response and downed their drinks in one go.
"We’re all friends here. Pour your own drinks, grab your own food. If you want something that’s not here, just ask a server and order it yourself.
If you want to sing, just pick your own songs. I’m not going to play host for every little thing."
After the toast, Sheng Yang sat back down, grabbed some snacks from the table, and started eating.
"Siting, do you want to sing? Let’s go pick some songs!"
Su Mengyao, worried that Qin Sitong might feel awkward, proactively went over to talk to her.
They were the only three girls there, and since Qin Sitong was a new friend Yun Zijin had brought along, Su Mengyao felt it was her duty as the oldest of the three to look after the two younger ones, Yun Zijin and Qin Sitong.
However, she wasn’t worried about Yun Zijin, so she focused all her attention on Qin Sitong.
"You guys go ahead and pick first. I... I’ll just watch for now."
Qin Sitong was a bit reserved. She felt like this was someone else’s party, and it would be rude for her to rush to pick a song.
"You’re not feeling shy, are you? Don’t worry about the details. The guys are all busy playing games and drinking. We can just do our own thing."
Right after the group toast, Sheng Yang and the other guys had started a card game.
The boys had ordered a case of champagne and were now in high spirits, showing no intention of singing at all.
"That’s right, we’ll do our own thing. Don’t worry about them."
’It wouldn’t matter even if we got drunk. We could just call Lu Yunque and the others and have them arrange for someone to come pick us up.’
’Worst case, Yun Zijin’s bodyguard is here. Nothing bad will happen.’
"Then let’s pick one together."
Seeing that Sheng Yang and his friends really weren’t going to sing, Qin Sitong finally relaxed and started picking songs with Yun Zijin and Su Mengyao.
The three girls got together and quickly queued up a bunch of songs they all liked.
Inside the private room, the boys and girls seemed to be in two different worlds, clearly divided yet strangely harmonious.
"KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK!! KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK!!"
Just as everyone was absorbed in their fun, an anxious knock came from outside the door.
