Chapter 402 Banquet
A middle-aged man in a neatly ironed black suit, with a smile on his face, was trying to get close to the receptionist at the gate.
"I'm an old classmate of Mr. Gu's grandson. I've come here to show my respect. If you let me in to say hello, I'll definitely benefit you! And I promise to be out the next day without any delay!"
"Sorry, you are not allowed to enter without an invitation."
"Oh no, you are so unreasonable!"
"Sorry, no entry without an invitation!"
"I really am..."
Before the middle-aged man could finish his words, he was immediately covered with his mouth and dragged away by several armed soldiers who surrounded him.
The reception staff have encountered too many people like this in the past two days, and the soldiers are familiar with dealing with them.
But I just can't stand the fools coming one after another.
At this time, the middle-aged man was dragged away in public, and those people on the periphery who were ready to make a move with the same purpose shrank their necks and took a break to think.
Zhuang Moxing frowned slightly as he watched all this. Why was this birthday banquet held so ostentatiously?
Liu Yu glanced at his expression and understood what he was afraid of.
But how could Mr. Gu, who holds a high position, keep a low profile? Even if he himself didn't want to do it, various forces would use his name to organize it.
Rather than letting others mess around with it, it’s better to take charge of it yourself.
Power has always been the most difficult thing to master.
Liu Yu immediately took Lingbao's hand in one hand and held his hand in the other and headed straight towards the lively place, not giving him a chance to regret.
When she and Zhuang Moxing agreed to live in seclusion in the future, she knew that she would gradually drift apart from those companions who had experienced life and death with her.
Let’s consider this birthday party as a farewell.
As Zhuang Moxing was being pulled by Liu Yu, the slight annoyance between his brows gradually dissipated. The warmth from his arm soothed his heart, and the four of them went straight to the courtyard.
Apart from their stunning looks, the other three Liu Yu were dressed just like ordinary people today, everyday and nothing special.
Passing by so many people in fancy evening gowns and hand-tailored suits, they seemed out of place.
Many people who were not on the invitation list glared at the backs of Liu Yu and the others with mockery.
I secretly thought that if she wanted to climb up the social ladder, she wouldn’t need to dress up at all. Even Cinderella had to wear the dress and crystal shoes given by her godmother to get to the top!
However, the receptionist at the door noticed Liu Yu and the other three at a glance. His eyes swept across the familiar faces of Liu Yu and Zhuang Moxing, and his pupils suddenly trembled!
The invitation list in his hand suddenly dropped to the ground in shock!
This unusual behavior attracted many people's attention, but his eyes quickly regained their composure.
He bent down and quickly picked up the list, then hurried forward with a slight bow. Just as he was about to say something, he was stopped by Liu Yu's finger against his lips.
His half-open mouth suddenly froze, and he quickly welcomed the person in with his trembling hands, suppressing his excited heart.
This series of unusual and strange actions was naturally caught by those who always wanted to sneak into the party, and immediately some brave people rushed forward to ask questions.
"Why didn't those people show their invitations? You're blatantly abusing your power for personal gain. It's unfair!"
The receptionist in a suit and tie ignored the noisy protests, but looked at Liu Yu and the other three with reverent eyes as they successfully entered the courtyard.
Then he turned around and quickly returned to his previous extremely calm and professional attitude, continuing to deal with the troublesome "freeloaders" outside the door.
Liu Yu and his companions, dressed in low-key casual clothes, were led into the second courtyard of the quadrangle by a well-trained receptionist. As soon as they entered, they were dazzled by the people toasting and chatting inside.
Xing'er opened her eyes wide, looking at the sister in the glowing evening dress, and then at the handsome brother holding a crystal red wine glass.
If someone else looked like this, it would be like Granny Liu making a fool of herself in the Grand View Garden.
But when it comes to Xing'er, who looks like a little doll, it looks cute and adorable.
