He walked to the window and looked out, his eyes revealing determination: "We must find this person as soon as possible, otherwise the Wei family will never have peace."
Wei Che pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned around with a glint in his eyes: "Let's hold a banquet and invite everyone. At the banquet, everyone will let down their guard, and perhaps we can see who has ulterior motives and find out who reported us."
Su Huaiyue's eyes lit up, and a look of surprise appeared on her face: "This is a good idea! We can use the opportunity of the banquet to carefully observe everyone's words and deeds.
Those with ill intentions might reveal their true colors at the banquet."
She narrowed her eyes slightly and began to think about the details of the banquet in her mind: "However, we have to plan it carefully so that this banquet does not seem deliberate and can achieve our goal."
Wei Che nodded and continued, "We can invite the Lu family, Jing Zhiwan, and the exiles we visited before. These people are more or less related to this matter. Their performance at the banquet may be the key to our finding the truth."
There was confidence in his eyes, as if he had seen hope of finding out who was behind the incident.
Su Huaiyue thought for a moment and said, "We can also arrange some activities at the banquet to make everyone relax and less defensive. For example, play some games, prepare some prizes, and make the atmosphere relaxed and happy. This way, everyone will be more likely to reveal their true thoughts and intentions."
The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and her eyes were full of anticipation.
Wei Che smiled slightly: "Sister-in-law, your idea is very good. We can prepare some new products of Meiyan Pavilion as prizes, which can attract everyone's interest and promote our business."
There was a glint of cunning in his eyes, and he was full of confidence in this banquet.
The two began to discuss the specific arrangements of the banquet in detail, from the list of invited guests to the process and activities of the banquet, leaving no detail untouched.
They also discussed how to cleverly observe everyone's reactions at the banquet, how to guide the topic, and how to expose the flaws of those with ulterior motives.
Su Huaiyue suddenly thought of a question: "Wei Che, if the whistleblower is really among the people we invited, he will definitely be on guard. How can we make him let down his guard?"
She frowned slightly, a hint of worry in her eyes.
Wei Che pondered for a moment and said, "We can first act as if we've let down our guard, so they think we don't suspect anyone. Then, during the banquet, we can observe quietly. Also, we must be careful to maintain good relationships with everyone and not let them discover our true intentions."
His eyes were calm and composed, and he seemed to have a strategy to deal with the situation.
Su Huaiyue nodded gently: "You are right. We must remain unchanged in the face of all changes and let them reveal their true intentions."
There was a glimmer of determination in her eyes, and she was full of anticipation for the banquet.
After a detailed discussion, Su Huaiyue and Wei Che finally made plans for the banquet.
They believe that this banquet will be a key step in their journey to find out the truth.
However, they also know that this is full of unknowns and challenges, and they must be cautious in order to find opportunities for survival in this crisis.
Soon, the invitation letter to Meiyan Pavilion was sent from the Wei family to all the customers closest to the store, including the Lu family, the three exiles who had visited before, and Jing Zhiwan.
In the Lu family study, the second-in-command was so angry that his face turned red, veins bulged on his forehead, and his eyes were as big as copper bells, as if they were about to spit fire.
He paced back and forth in his study, waving his arms and cursing non-stop, "That greedy county magistrate is such a fox! Even with such clear evidence, he still released the man. He must have accepted bribes from the Wei family! Isn't this clearly favoring them? We put in so much effort and prepared so much, and he just messed it up!"
He became more and more excited as he spoke, and suddenly he slammed his fist on the table, causing the pens and ink on the table to jump. Some of the ink in the inkstone splashed out, leaving an ugly stain on the table.
Lu Jin sat on a chair beside him with an elegant posture and a calm expression.
She simply glanced at the second-in-command, her tone calm but with unquestionable authority: "Watch your words."
There was a hint of displeasure in her eyes, as if she was annoyed by the second-in-command's gaffe.
Lu Jin gently shook the invitation in his hand and looked at the second-in-command: "What do you think of the Wei family holding a banquet?"
The second-in-command snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "Humph, they must be trying to use this opportunity to clear themselves. I really don't know how the county magistrate was fooled by them."
Lu Jin narrowed his eyes slightly, a sneer curling up at the corner of his mouth: "The Wei family is not that simple. They must have some tricks up their sleeve to escape this disaster. This banquet may be hiding something mysterious."
The second-in-command frowned and asked doubtfully, "Madam, should we still go? Maybe it will be a trap."
Lu Jin shook his head slightly, a calculating look flashing in his eyes. "Why not? The more they want to clear their suspicion, the more we have to disrupt the situation. This banquet is our chance."
The second-in-command's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "Madam, do you have any plans? Tell us quickly."
Lu Jin sneered and said slowly, "The best way is to arrange some people at the banquet to do something. Fabricating evidence is what our Lu family is best at."
Upon hearing this, the second-in-command smiled sinisterly: "Madam must have some idea in her mind. I can't wait to see the Wei family go to jail!"
