Cat asked Jiu Yunchi for help, something she had planned long ago. In her opinion, Jiu Yunchi's intelligence and emotional intelligence were not limited to his work ability.
And as it turns out, this is indeed the case.
Jiu Yunchi assigned someone to Maomao: Lin Yu.
Although he was Jiu Yunchi's assistant, he also handled Jiu family affairs on a part-time basis.
That's actually a euphemism. The Jiu family doesn't have that many trivial matters to deal with. He mainly deals with... the troubles caused by Jiu Xintian, which have been going on for several years. So, Lin Yu, as the assistant, can be considered half a housekeeper for the Jiu family.
However, his business had been suspended for a long time after the cat appeared, and now it has been restarted.
Lin Yu's arrangements were very official and professional. He asked Maomao for the list of banquet guests, inquired about her specific requirements, and then took care of the rest.
Chen Doudou entered a very strange state. Apart from cooking, she would hide in a corner with a handwritten recipe and study it, looking like she was about to go crazy at any moment...
The servants were worried and wondered if they should take Chen Doudou to the hospital, but their young lady said not to worry about it!
Before they knew it, it was time for the banquet.
Chen Doudou finally came up with the menu! She nervously went to prepare it.
The cat remained unmoved; she had already prepared everything and, after breakfast, went to the study to read.
At 5 p.m., Jiu Yunchi and Jiu Yebai returned one after the other.
It's really strange. It was just a banquet, yet the entire Jiu family was filled with an unusual atmosphere!
Jiu Yunchi changed his clothes specially. Although it was still a suit, the exquisitely embroidered roses on the sleeves added just the right amount of casualness. If he were on a runway, he would be the most stylish male model!
The banquet was mainly held on the grass.
The sun was setting in the west, and it was a cool time of day.
The cat is curled up in a single sofa, holding a glass of juice in its hand—daydreaming.
Jiu Yebai suddenly leaned over and said, "Jiu Maomao, I have a competition soon, will you come with me?"
The cat blinked. "Are you three years old? Do you need an adult to accompany you?"
Jiu Yebai said, "I'm going all the way to Y country to participate in the competition. You should at least support me, right? Otherwise, I'll be so lonely."
The cat didn't agree immediately, but said, "Let's talk about it another time."
Jiu Yebai said, "Haven't you been pretty free lately? With the contract termination imminent, we can take the opportunity to go on a trip."
However, no sooner had he finished speaking than a less-than-serious voice chimed in, "Where are we going to have fun? That's my specialty, wanna come along?"
Jiu Yebai suddenly turned around! Looking at Song Ci walking towards him, he angrily demanded, "Why are you in my house?"
Song Ci rolled her eyes at him, "How can you talk to a guest like that? Of course I'm here to attend the banquet."
As she spoke, Song Ci ran up to the cat, immediately put on a sweet smile, and handed over a small box. "Sister, this is a gift for you. It's been a long time. You've become even more beautiful."
The cat looked at the person in front of it and pouted, "You've become even more glib."
Jiu Yebai retorted, "They should be even more shameless! Song Ci, who sent you here?"
Jiu Yebai could have invited a few friends, but after thinking it over, he realized that none of his friends were very reliable, especially since he had such a beautiful cat at home. He was even less willing to let those hormonally challenged fools come.
I deliberately avoided Song Ci at school today! I drove straight home after school, but Song Ci still showed up!
Song Ci looked at Jiu Yebai reproachfully, "This is not being a good brother to you. There was a banquet at home and you didn't even tell me! You're being too formal with us. Besides, can't I come and see my sister?"
"If I hadn't run into Lanfeng, I would have missed such a big event today!"
Jiu Yebai turned around instantly and saw that Lan Feng had arrived and was talking to his older brother.
Song Ci often frequented Feifan Entertainment, so it was entirely possible that she would run into Lan Feng.
The night was long and silent.
Song Ci looked around with great interest, opened his arms to embrace the excellent air, and said, "Jiu Yebai, it wasn't like this when I came to your house last time. Now it's so... romantic, isn't it?"
Forgive him, he really couldn't think of any suitable words, like growing vegetables or raising fish...
Suddenly, he grabbed a glass of watermelon juice from the side, took a sip, and his eyes lit up! Then he gulped it all down, and switched to a lychee glass, savoring it slowly.
"It really is different!" he said. He always remembered that the food at the Jiuye Bai family's house was especially delicious!
Moreover, today's banquet must be unique, with no expensive wines or drinks, only a dozen kinds of fruit juices! And each exquisite dessert is made like a work of art.
Song Ci tried one, and then couldn't stop, tasting each one along the long table.
Jiu Yebai leaned against the table, propped his long legs up, and chuckled, "You look like you're here to freeload. Is the Song family starving you?"
Song Ci pretended not to understand that this was a sarcastic remark, and nodded with a smile, "Yes, yes, yes! So, how about you do some good deeds? Treat me to a few more meals."
Jiu Yebai said, "That's wishful thinking."
Just then, the cat suddenly stood up and walked towards the entrance.
Song Ci straightened up, slowly chewing a piece of pastry, and raised her eyebrows. "Jiu Yebai, your family has invited a very important guest today."
Jiu Yebai remained silent.
He also looked over there. Several elderly people came in together, each followed by a bodyguard. One of the bodyguards was slightly different... Although they were in civilian clothes, they all had short hair, stood at attention, and kept their eyes straight ahead. As soon as they came in, they went to the side to stand guard.
So, Professor Gu really did come!
At Peking University, he is a professor; in Beijing, he is the patriarch and head of the Gu family. Although he has been retired for many years, he has spent his life in the military and knows how to navigate life with grace. Now, the younger generation of the Gu family is also managing the family well.
The Gu family is the most low-key of the five major families, yet it is also the most impossible to ignore.
Then came Madam Mu, who sat in a wheelchair wearing a cheongsam. Although she was in her eighties, she looked at least twenty years younger and still possessed dazzling elegance.
The head of the Ye family, dressed in a long gown and cloth shoes, always had a smile on his face and was full of energy. He looked like a cheerful old man, and probably a spirited young man in his youth.
These three were all invited by the cat; however, besides these three, there was one more person!
He was also an old man, wearing a long robe, but he had long hair, which was carefully tied back with a cloth rope. Compared to Professor Gu and Old Man Ye, this old man, well... he was a handsome old man!
Old Man Ye wore a long gown, which was rather down-to-earth, while this old man, also wearing a long gown, exuded an air of nobility! Though old, he was very elegant.
What's more, while others' hair is graying, his waist-length hair remains as black as ink.
