Chapter 264 To Invite or Not?

Today is a banquet hosted by the Fang family.

Mr. and Mrs. Fang returned from abroad to celebrate their successful acquisition of a major project overseas.

Even before the banquet officially began, the light flowing from the crystal chandelier had already illuminated the hall, which was already made exceptionally brilliant by the golden wall lamps, making it dazzling and colorful.

The air was filled with the subtle aromas of champagne and brandy, mingled with the expensive perfumes worn by the ladies.

Well-dressed guests, holding wine glasses, naturally formed several flowing circles.

Fang Yue saw Wei Yin and Yan Kui walk in and led the group towards the innermost room.

Many of the guests on the periphery recognized Wei Yin, and all their eyes were fixed on the arm that Yan Kui was holding onto his.

Several people who knew the inside story had already begun planning how to curry favor with this lady of the Wei family.

Unfortunately, the Fang family didn't give them a chance and led their people directly across the hall.

Lu Jingnan was sitting in the room when Wei Yin walked in. He smiled and said, "Brother Yin, here comes the promised red envelope!"

Wei Yin's warm palm enveloped Yan Kui's hand, forming a small fist, and he narrowed his eyes slightly: "Whenever you give a gift, this red envelope will be indispensable."

"I'll definitely give you a big gift then."

Lu Jingnan added, "Lu Jingbei will be here later too. This kid used to find these kinds of occasions boring, but now that he's working behind the scenes, he's become interested again."

The waiter next to him skillfully poured dark red wine into his glass. Wei Yin looked focused and lightly tapped his fingertips on the glass: "Very good."

Now that Yan Kui and Lu Jingbei are in a cooperative relationship, Wei Yin will provide him with certain conveniences.

This is why Lu Jingbei chose to cooperate with Yan Kui instead of other large companies.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Jingbei entered the room under the guidance of the waiter.

When Lu Jingnan saw that everyone had arrived, he said, "Everyone's here. Let's play cards!"

Wei Yin asked with a smile, "Want to play?"

"I've never played cards."

To be honest, Yan Kui used to be able to go shopping, travel, or daydream to kill time. When she attended banquets, she would just sit with her peers and discuss whose new products looked good.

"I'll teach you."

After saying that, Wei Yin led her to the table, then sat down next to her, placing his arm on the back of the chair behind Yan Kui with an absolute sense of possession: "Come on."

The people at the table were all familiar faces: Fang Yue, Lu Jingnan, and Lu Jingbei.

"Let's form a team, how do we divide the roles?" Lu Jingnan asked.

Lu Jingbei glanced at his cousin and said, "I'll be in a group with Yan Kui, and you'll be in a group with Fang Yue."

Fang Yue nodded readily and smiled at Lu Jingbei, "Your brother is just as good at cards as Brother Yin."

"I was hoping to win some of his money today."

Lu Jingnan said confidently, "Sure, let's see if you have the ability."

Yan Kui was indeed a complete beginner; she couldn't even understand the cards in the bridge deck.

Fortunately, Wei Yin was there to teach him step by step, and after winning a few rounds with his partner Lu Jingbei, he was able to experience a bit of the fun in it.

Fang Tiantian, carrying Yan Xiaotian, and Yan Sheng behind her, pushed open the door and entered.

After seeing the group playing cards, Yan Sheng obediently called out to the older brothers present.

Seeing that it wasn't interesting, he was about to take Yan Sheng out again.

Before leaving, she suddenly remembered the person she had seen in the lobby and said to Fang Yue, "Brother, I saw Sister Xitang outside just now. Should we invite her over?"

Upon hearing the words "Sister Xitang," Lu Jingnan's hand holding the cards trembled.

Everyone present, except Yan Sheng, turned their gazes to Lu Jingnan.

Fang Yue, as if enjoying a good show, said, "Whether or not to invite him is up to you, Brother Jingnan."
