Chapter 43: Eating melon progress 43%

◎Birthday Banquet, Peacock Flies Southeast◎

After hearing the master's call, rooms 2, 4, and 7 left first, followed by rooms 3, 5, and 6.

The third room turned around and glanced at Su Lan, "For some reason, I'm a little concerned about this Miss Gu."

The fifth room quickly nodded in agreement, "Me too..."

Room Six looked at Room Five in surprise, wondering how she had finally gotten the point. Then she heard Room Five say, "I think her dress today is quite nice. I wonder which couture brand it is from. I'd like to have one made for me, but I wonder if it's expensive."

Third room: "..."

Sixth room: "..."

Summer insects cannot talk about ice.

Room Six came over and patted Room Three's hand. "It's okay, everything's been arranged. Let's wait and see."

Su Lan and Jin Wanning walked at the end. Looking at the full house of guests, they deliberately found a more secluded seat to watch the show.

There was a stage at the end of the red carpet, and a thinly dressed male singer was performing on it.

After the song ended, the host warmly invited today's protagonist Bloomberg to come on stage.

Bloomberg, dressed in a black suit, with gray hair and leaning on a Huanghuali cane, walked slowly up and gave a leadership speech, thanking all the guests.

Investors, partners, artists, and some media friends were present, and they were all very supportive. The applause said it all.

The projection screen next to him slowly descended, and Su Lan's eyes lit up.

On the screen, the great achievements of Coconut Video and the ten upcoming blockbusters were played.

The sound effects are shocking, the visuals are impactful, and the trailer clips are the best, it's all wonderful.

After saying "This year's revenue will reach 10 billion, and we will create another glorious era", Bloomberg was greeted with everyone's attention and applause.

"I have another important announcement today. My son Peng Rui has returned home. I hope everyone will continue to support me."

Peng Rui came on stage with a slightly chubby head, wearing black-framed glasses, and smiling like a worthless fool.

He even glanced in the crowd and saw Su Lan's direction, with an arrogant look on his face that said "you can't reach her".

However, I didn't expect that someone in the audience had already quietly made an effort.

"This is the second young master Peng Rui. How come I haven't heard of the Peng family having a second young master before?"

"This is the illegitimate child that Old Peng brought back, and he's registered it under the name of his deceased wife. It wasn't long since Old Madam Peng passed away, and he married a 20-year-old new wife and acknowledged a 33-year-old illegitimate child. If his wife knew, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to hold him in her coffin."

"My son used to go to the same school as Peng Rui. Peng Rui was a notorious problem teenager. He was a bully in school, bullying his classmates every few days, stealing their money, things, and girlfriends, and getting into fights."

"Not only that, I heard that Peng Rui is still with his sister-in-law!"

"Is there such a thing?"

"Tell me more..."

"I heard that Peng Rui had been hooking up with my sister-in-law since he was fifteen or sixteen."

"Not only that, I also heard that they dared to do anything when Peng Hua was at home."

"Is this true?"

As rumors began to spread, Peng Rui didn't hear them. He continued to strike various poses on the stage, asking media friends to take photos, and then editing a press release and posting it online.

He is just waiting for the identity to be announced and the stock price of Kangaroo Live to rise sharply tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Peng Rui couldn't help laughing.

Suddenly, the eldest son Peng Hua rushed onto the stage and knocked Peng Rui to the ground with one punch.

Peng Rui's glasses were crooked and both nostrils were bleeding...

Everyone:!!!

"Wow, with this punch, doesn't it confirm that Peng Rui and his sister-in-law are having an affair?"

"Haha, your circle is really messy."

Su Lan's voice sounded from a distance.

[Tsk tsk, if Peng Hua knew that Peng Rui had been having an affair with his sister-in-law since he was fifteen, and that he was also Peng Shuqin's biological father, would he be so angry that he would vomit blood?]

The waiter passed by and heard Su Lan's thoughts. She was so surprised that she couldn't help but listen to the melon alone, so she wanted to find someone to share it with.

She turned around and told her colleague, but it was overheard by someone else.

Soon, the discussion reached the ears of the parties involved.

Peng Hua was so angry that he went crazy!

He only has one precious daughter, Peng Shuqin, and she is actually Peng Rui's child?

His daughter is already an adult, so doesn't that mean he's been cheating on her for almost twenty years?!

Peng Hua beat Peng Rui violently, and no one else could stop him.

In the end, it was Bloomberg who spoke up: "Enough! Keep family matters behind closed doors and don't let people laugh at you."

Everyone looked at each other.

I'm dying of laughter. I'm done laughing.

Soon, new rumors emerged.

"That's amazing! Peng Rui was born to Peng Lao Si's concubine, so he's an illegitimate child."

"No, Peng Rui was actually picked up by the fourth concubine from the school toilet."

"School toilet??"

"Yeah, Peng Rui's biological mother is a high school student. Oh my god, what's going on?"

"Oh my god, Peng Bo is actually Peng Rui's biological father!!!"

"The fourth concubine thought she had picked up this child randomly, but she didn't expect it was all arranged by Peng Bo. Peng Bo defiled a high school student. The girl gave birth to the child directly in the school, and was terrified. She left the child in the toilet. Peng Hua didn't show up, so he sent someone to guide the fourth concubine to pick it up."

“This melon is so explosive!”

"High school student? This is a crime, right? Why didn't you go to jail?"

"It's been delayed until now, and I'm afraid the statute of limitations has already passed..."

On the stage, Bloomberg didn't expect that the fire would burn himself. The fourth room looked at him as if they wanted to eat him.

Peng Bo coughed and put on a masterly air, "Pay attention to the occasion."

The fourth room tightly grasped the corner of her clothes, not daring to express her anger.

Su Lan was curious, [How do you know so much gossip? ]

Jin Wanning thought: It’s all because of you.

Jin Wanning said, "This circle is very small, with only so many people. If there's any gossip about someone, it spreads very quickly. Who doesn't like to eat melons, right?"

Su Lan felt that there was some truth in it and glanced at the eyes of the concubines of the Peng family.

[It turns out that the rumor was deliberately spread by the third wife. She caught Peng Rui and his sister-in-law having an affair.]

What the Third House didn't know was that the Second House had specifically led her to discover this scene.

[Hey, isn't the Second House in league with the Fourth House? Why is he backstabbing the Fourth House?]

Oh my, it turns out the second wife also secretly gave birth to a son, and he's an entertainer. The second wife seems to be very low-key and keeps it a secret. She discovered early on that there was something fishy about Peng Rui's identity and had a paternity test done. It turned out to be Peng Bo's child, and she's been wanting to get rid of him as soon as possible.

These voices were heard by people, passed on from one person to another, and finally reached the ears of the parties involved.

"It's you!" The fourth room looked at the third room, completely disregarding her image, and grabbed her hair.

The third room grabbed the second room's leg and said, "You are not a good person either!"

The second, third and fourth rooms wrestled with each other, knocking over the champagne tower and spilling the champagne all over the floor.

Peng Bo was furious. "What a disgrace! Drag him away!"

Jin Wanging was quite pleased with the scene.

Bloomberg is patriarchal and treats her mother so badly, so it seems he has so many illegitimate children.

Fight, tear, and destroy everything.

Bloomberg saw that his birthday party was ruined by his concubines, so he quickly ordered Ren Ze to shut the media up.

On the other side, Su Lan looked around the crowd, looking for Gu Yanzhi.

It was clearly Gu Yanzhi who brought her here. The dinner was already half over, where was he?

Su Lan said hello to Jin Wanning and went to find Gu Yanzhi.

·

At this moment, on the third floor of Four Seasons Villa.

Gu Yanzhi was in Bloomberg's study, searching everywhere for evidence.

But after searching around, I still couldn't find it.

Is there a secret compartment?

Gu Yanzhi turned on the building scanning function of the intelligence system and discovered the secret room behind the bookshelf.

He observed the cleanest place on the bookshelf, found the switch, and entered the secret room.

What caught my eye was a golden safe, about two meters high.

The safe has a golden combination lock with a four-digit combination.

Gu Yanzhi bent down and tried the password.

The intelligence system is also working at high speed, trying to crack the code.

Tried it a lot, but no success.

At this time, Gu Yanzhi heard someone coming at the door. He was too lazy to try and directly brought the password box into his consciousness space.

Someone exclaimed at the study door.

"We've been robbed!"

Peng Bo rushed over as soon as he received the news, "Where are they?"

"have no idea."

"What are we keeping you for? You're such a big man, and you're carrying a two-meter-high safe. You can disappear in an instant. Can you fly?"

At this time, Gu Yanzhi placed the password box in the consciousness space and handed it over to the intelligence system for processing.

Then, he came out of the consciousness space and appeared in Peng Rui's room on the second floor.

There are "tap tap" footsteps upstairs, everyone is catching a thief.

The thief Gu Yanzhi was not panicked at all. He went straight to Peng Rui's room and continued to search.

The second young master Peng Rui was not as good at hiding it as his father Peng Bo. The password box was right under the desk and could be seen at a glance.

Gu Yanzhi didn't even bother to try the password and just packed up the password box and took it away.

Bloomberg's men couldn't find the person on the third floor, so they started looking on the second floor.

Gu Yanzhi was not in a hurry and even released all the pets in Peng Bo's collection.

Soon Bloomberg was heard cursing, "My munias, my tits, my cockatiels, and my baby blue peacocks!"

The lawn downstairs was full of guests, and I saw a blue-green peacock flying down from the second floor, as well as various small birds.

Su Lan listened to what the animals said.

I didn’t expect Gu Yanzhi to be so kind and let these little cuties go.

Peng Bo was so angry that he jumped up and down, and his cursing could be heard on the lawn below. "Even if I have to turn the whole villa upside down, I will find this thief for me!"

Su Lan was worried that something might happen to Gu Yanzhi, so she pressed the alarm bell directly.

A few seconds later, Gu Yanzhi appeared in front of her and confirmed that there was no danger around. "Are you looking for me?"

"I just saw you disappear for a while."

【I’m afraid you’ll be caught.】

Gu Yanzhi's eyes softened, "Worried about me?"

"You're overthinking it. How can I go back without you?" Su Lan distanced herself from the matter.

It's late at night now. Even if I wanted to buy a plane ticket and transfer to the ferry back to Alpha Island, there probably aren't any tickets left.

Gu Yanzhi found that Su Lan’s thoughts and words were consistent, so he didn’t say anything.

Su Lan slowly raised her eyes and asked him, "Are you the thief they want to catch?"

Gu Yanzhi spread his hands with an innocent look, but he heard Su Lan's inner voice.

【I know, it's you.】

Gu Yanzhi saw that it was useless to lie to her, so he confessed directly, "It's me. What? Are you going to expose me?"

"Won't."

Su Lan's inner thoughts were revealed: [If you don't take action, I will naturally deal with him.]

Gu Yanzhi guessed that Su Lan probably knew that Gu Xi's death was related to Peng Bo, so he said, "It's getting late, let's go back first."

Su Lan refused, "Wait, there's something I haven't done yet."

Bloomberg cursed loudly upstairs, but after walking down the lawn, he acted as if nothing had happened and continued to let the host cue the process.

Host: "Now let's serve the cake. I wish General Peng all the best and a long life!"

Next, please watch the VCR of everyone’s birthday wishes to General Peng.

When the screen came down, many artists recorded a whole VCR to congratulate General Peng on his birthday.

Halfway through the video, the VCR suddenly jammed, and then a scene appeared that Bloomberg would never forget...

The author has something to say:

Su Lan: Qianqian activates the video playback function in your head...

43rd bow ~Good night~
