Recently, there have been more and more banquets between wealthy families. Song's father and mother have been busy attending the banquets, so Song Qingmo naturally did not go. However, there was a banquet recently that he was quite interested in, and he went without saying goodbye. After all, it was a greeting between their generation, and it would be nice to find out about the development of those people.
Inside the hotel, a massive crystal chandelier hung above the vast space, shimmering with dappled light. All around, a variety of delicacies, desserts, and expensive red wine were laid out in a crisscross pattern, with waiters waiting with elegant demeanor. Song Qingmo looked at the banquet hall filled with wealthy young men and daughters, not recognizing any of them. He felt awkward. If he had known, he wouldn't have come so early.
Song Qingmo appeared respectable and composed on the outside, but inside he felt helpless and terrified. He didn't recognize any of the people around him, and this had forced him, a chatterbox at home, into a social anxiety disorder. Normally, he didn't meet many people, and others only knew him by name. But because of his unusual clothing, others simply assumed he was a young man from a reclusive family. They didn't like to be around people, so they didn't approach him.
Song Qingmo was also happy to be alone. Seeing that no one was talking to him, he slowly wandered around, secretly listening to other people's gossip, but he was still a little bored. If he had known earlier, he would have come after Mu Hengshi, maybe he would have seen the surprise of him and Wen Zhiling coming together. Many people brought their own female companions today, and he thought Mu Hengshi might bring Wen Zhiling here to see the world and interact with other wealthy families.
Song Qingmo had almost finished strolling around and it was not appropriate to continue strolling around, so he found a seat and started drinking a glass of juice. As a good boy, he did not drink alcohol. Although the red wine had a low alcohol content, he still understood the principle that minors were prohibited from drinking. Not to mention that this was a banquet for wealthy people full of intrigue. Even a smart man like Mu Hengshi had been drugged, so he didn't dare to touch the wine at the banquet.
Anyway, he will be the boss of the company in the future, and he is not afraid of being forced to drink by others, so it doesn’t matter if he can’t drink. Song Qingmo held his head high and thought proudly in his heart - being the big brother is good.
There was a commotion at the door, forcibly interrupting Song Qingmo's wild thoughts. He looked up and saw Xu Fengyi and Su Muxue coming in together.
He suppressed the shock in his eyes and quickly gathered his emotions. He stared at that place in silence.
Song Qingmo looked at this strange scene, "What's going on? Su Muxue is actually with Xu Fengyi, and they are holding hands. Could it be that Xu Fengyi and Su Muxue are having an affair?" He denied this idea in his mind, because he heard from others that Su Muxue's status in the Su family has plummeted since Su's father was arrested. Now that she is with Xu Fengyi, it is probably not a collusion, but she is forced to do so.
As expected, as soon as Xu Fengyi came in, he pulled Su Muxue's hand away and went to find his friends. Su Muxue bit her lip the whole time and said nothing. Xu Fengyi was still quite favored by his mother. Even after the Xu family kicked Xu's father out, Xu Fengyi was still taken back to the Liu family by his mother. Even though his grandfather's family didn't like this grandson, they loved Xu's mother and the Liu family. Due to Xu's mother's face, the Liu family still extended a helping hand to this grandson to make his life in the circle not too difficult. However, Su Muxue had become a pawn of the Su family. The favor she once had was gone, and she could only be used as a pawn by the Su family to please the Liu family.
The aristocratic circle is used to flattering the powerful and bullying the weak. It seems that Su Muxue will not have an easy time today.
Shortly after Xu Fengyi and the others arrived, Mu Hengshi also arrived at the banquet. Song Qingmo had been sitting there sullenly, watching the others, not bothering to pay attention to Xu Fengyi's glances. But when Mu Hengshi arrived, he sat up straight with a bright look, his eyes fixed on the back of Mu Hengshi. When he saw Wen Zhiling hadn't arrived, the light in his eyes dimmed again, and he continued to sit listlessly.
What's wrong with this guy? He's standing up for Wen Zhiling, and the whole school knows about it. This is something Mu Hengshi, who used to keep people at a distance, never did. Logically, Mu Hengshi should have brought him to this party. In Song Qingmo's eyes, if Mu Hengshi tacitly admitted who his boyfriend was, then it was almost certain.
Song Qingmo was a little disappointed when Wen Zhiling didn't show up after waiting for a long time. Wen Zhiling had wanted Mu Hengshi to bring him to the banquet, but Mu Hengshi just said "Don't have any bad intentions". So Wen Zhiling was sent to the banquet by Xu Feng, who disguised himself as a waiter.
When Wen Zhiling contacted Xu Fengyi to report on the progress, he secretly emphasized that Song Qingmo had saved him twice. He successfully heard Xu Fengyi's angry tone. After all, this blessing only Wen Zhiling could have.
Wen Zhiling didn't know why he knew that Xu Fengyi and Mu Heng both liked Song Qingmo, so he wanted to treat them equally. But he didn't expect Xu Fengyi to be so enraged that he actually wanted to attack Song Qingmo at the banquet and even let him come here to watch the show.
Wen Zhiling anxiously searched for Song Qingmo at the banquet, hoping to tip him off and quietly pass on the news. It was obvious that Song Qingmo's misfortune would be very beneficial to him, but he didn't want to. When Xu Fengyi proposed to attack Song Qingmo, he wanted to beat Xu Fengyi up and kill him. He wanted to tell Mu Hengshi about Xu Fengyi's plan at all costs, but Mu Hengshi was so smart that he would definitely notice it, and he would be exposed.
Mu Hengshi caused a stir the moment he entered the banquet, with many people flocking to chat with him. He answered questions fluently while staring at Song Qingmo.
Mu Heng closed the distance between him and Song Qingmo. At this time, many people had also come to Song Qingmo's side. Some of them had met Song Qingmo before and knew him. They enthusiastically introduced him to others, "This is Mr. Song, who is as famous as Mr. Mu - Song Qingmo."
As soon as these words were spoken, Song Qingmo saw shocked expressions on those people's faces. Song Qingmo was not surprised. After all, he had never attended any banquet since he grew up.
Those people came to the door, and Song Qingmo naturally exchanged a few pleasantries with them. After just getting some useful information, Song Qingmo stopped talking. Those people didn't want to bother Song Qingmo anymore and left. Mu Heng didn't say a word during the whole process, just quietly watching Song Qingmo and the others talk.
He deliberately brought people here because he wanted Song Qingmo to get to know those people better. He knew that if Song Qingmo didn't take the initiative to find him, he wouldn't take the initiative to find you. Although Song Qingmo was very capable, it would not be good to fight alone.
Seeing that Song Qingmo didn't want to bother with others anymore, he didn't make things difficult for him and quietly took those people away.
