Chapter 151 Emerald Diamond Laurel Bracelet
For a moment, the hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Although those who could come to the banquet did not necessarily have prominent family backgrounds, they had certain say in various circles in Yunwu City.
These people were able to climb to their current positions not entirely because of their families, but all of them were smart people.
Xu Shanglou said that he wanted to celebrate his wife's sister's birthday, and no one dared to take it lightly. They all treated it very seriously as a banquet of the highest standard.
Only Lao Wei, who was probably dazzled by the beauty, actually brought a third child here in a dignified manner and bumped into Xu Zhongkai.
"Mr. Xu, please take a seat." Someone had already begun to invite him respectfully.
Xu Zhongkai glanced at Ruan Mingying, who was sitting at the main table, and said nothing.
So a group of smart people desperately winked at the mother and daughter of the Ruan family.
Mingzhuo put down his chopsticks and sighed.
This person was already here, but he didn't know what he was doing standing there. "Uncle Xu, come and sit down."
Her tone was too casual, as if she was saying, "Hey, old man, find a place to sit down and don't stand there to get in the way." This shocked the group of people.
However, when Ruan Mingying stood up to greet them, the others were even more shocked.
Ruan Mingying: "Mr. Xu, I didn't know you were coming today. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality."
Xu Zhongkai: "...What did you call me?"
"Mr. Xu." Ruan Mingying was stunned for a moment. What's wrong with this title?
Before coming, Xu Zhongkai told Qi Lianan that he was only here to celebrate Mingzhuo's birthday and definitely didn't mean to make Ruan Mingying proud.
If Ruan Mingying shamelessly clings to them by calling them father-in-law or father, they will just put down their gifts and leave, and never send a bad signal to the outside world.
He wants everyone to know that he acknowledges her identity as his daughter-in-law only for the sake of his eldest son.
It is definitely not that he recognizes Ruan Mingying as a person. After all, she is far from his standard for choosing a daughter-in-law, and he is still very dissatisfied!
But now she doesn't call him father-in-law or father, and she doesn't even call him Uncle Xu. She calls him Mr. Xu politely and distantly! He
should be happy that this woman finally has self-awareness, but why is she so upset in her heart!
He cast his gaze on Ruan's mother next to him, and nodded with a frown on his face to greet her.
Mother Ruan smiled: "Please sit over here, Mr. Xu."
Xu Zhongkai: "..."
Even Ruan Mingxuan followed her mother and elder sister's way of addressing him, calling him Mr. Xu.
For the first time, Xu Zhongkai felt that this title was harsh. After looking around, it was still the little girl next to him who was well-behaved and cute, calling him Uncle Xu!
Listen, how intimate this title is, and it instantly shortened the distance.
Xu Zhongkai looked at Mingzhuo, and couldn't help but look kinder: "Uncle Xu has prepared a gift for you, see if you like it."
Qi Lianan was about to open the box, but Mingzhuo held it down and said casually: "No need to look at it, I like it."
Xu Zhongkai's eyebrows were all filled with smiles: "As long as you like it, as long as you like it!"
He was very satisfied with Mingzhuo now. Look, he is smart and has profound magic skills, and he loves his uncle so much!
She had completely forgotten how he had criticized the young girl for being impolite.
Ming Zhuo took the box. She didn't know what was in the box, but it was obvious that someone couldn't stand it and was about to be sucked in.
She casually added a restriction to the box.
The man who was originally floating around and about to fall into the box suddenly sobered up and looked at Ming Zhuo for two seconds with embarrassment.
"Haha, this is all an accident." He maintained an awkward but polite smile and floated away calmly.
On the other side, Special Assistant Wang led his people over. He stayed in Yunwu City this time and did not follow Xu Shanglou to Xiang City.
"This is Assistant He from Xiang City." He introduced.
Assistant He went to Qinghuiju in the afternoon, and then followed Ruan Mingying and the others. They already knew each other.
Assistant He said, "Boss went to a private auction last night and bought this emerald diamond laurel bracelet. I hope you like it."
The laurel leaf bracelet is very unique, inlaid with diamonds, and surprisingly matches the main emerald.
This design looks both rich and crystal clear, not dull, very fashionable, and very suitable for young people.
... It would be better if there was no man floating on it.
The man was even more embarrassed, "This is also an accident!"
He wanted to float out quickly, but found that his soul was getting weaker and weaker, and he felt a little tired.
He wondered in surprise, how could he still feel tired in the soul state? Wow, a new knowledge point has been added.
Mingzhuo closed the box and also covered the man in.
Assistant He was unaware of this and was very happy to have completed his mission. He could also attend Miss San's birthday party with pay.
Ming Zhuo asked him to remember to take the souvenir when he left. Assistant He said he understood and that he stayed on purpose, probably just for this so-called "souvenir".
After the party was over, everyone was ready to go home.
Ming Zhuo suddenly asked, "Mr. Gu, can I take your car back?"
Gu Xu nodded, "Sure."
The car was halfway on the road and He Wangyao was about to fall asleep when she suddenly heard Gu Xu's voice.
"What's wrong? Has something happened again?"
He Wangyao opened his eyes and stared at Mingzhuo, "Ah, are you going to catch a ghost? Where is the ghost?"
He looked around, so nervous that he almost got goosebumps.
Mingzhuo opened the exquisite sandalwood box and waved his hand, "Come out."
He Wangyao was so frightened that he almost screamed, there really is a ghost!
Shenghun said unhappily: "What's that expression on your face? Am I that scary?"
He touched his face and thought to himself that Mingming is handsome, elegant and charming.
Mingzhuo: "He is not a ghost, he just has a soul that has left his body. It happens that you have also had a soul that has left your body. I think you two should have a lot in common and can exchange feelings and experiences."
Did the soul leave the body? Gu Xu glanced inside the carriage, but he still couldn't see anything.
"I remember that if the soul leaves the body for more than seven days, it can never be saved." Gu Xu pondered.
Ming Zhuo looked down at his phone, "There is such a saying, if the soul leaves the body for more than seven days, even the Golden Immortal can't save it."
She was texting, and Li Wenhe was also asking her what happened.
The eldest disciple had a sharp intuition, and Ming Zhuo guessed that he had seen the clues.
After thinking about it, she simply created a WeChat group, added a few people to the group, and explained it briefly.
The living soul heard the conversation between the two and panicked: "You can see me, you are a master, right? Can you send me back?"
Ming Zhuo: "Sure, but who are you, what is your name, where is your body?"
The living soul was confused. He tried to recall and found that he had lost a lot of memory in his mind.
He vaguely remembered that he was a very popular star with many fans, but what was his name... he couldn't remember it.
Ming Zhuo sighed. She had some doubts before, and it turned out to be the case.
He Wangyao: "Aren't you the popular top star Yang Juntong? It was on the hot search yesterday, saying that you were dead, and the company denied the rumor that you were just tired."
He felt sympathetic. Sure enough, some gossip might not be groundless.
Ming Zhuo suddenly remembered: "Oh, it's him!"
He heard his younger brothers mention it this morning.
