Chapter 857 Great Benefactor
Knock knock.
There was a knock on the door.
Feng Nanxi hid the computer in the middle drawer of the dressing table before saying, "Please come in."
The person who came in was Zhao Yaru, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Pei family. She was in charge of today's engagement banquet. When she saw that Feng Nanxi was the only one in the room, she asked, "Where is the makeup artist? Your makeup isn't finished yet, and the guests are about to arrive. Why is your dress still undone?"
Zhao Yaru has complicated feelings towards Feng Nanxi.
A future sister-in-law who is a dozen years younger than her.
"I wanted to be alone so I let them go."
Zhao Yaru advised, "If you are engaged to Pei Gan, you can't be so willful. Every move you make represents the reputation of the Pei family. You must be careful and meticulous in what you do outside, and don't bring shame to the Pei family."
Feng Nanxi looked at her devoted expression and said, "We're just engaged, I didn't sell them to the Pei family. Besides, an engagement can be cancelled, so how can I represent the Pei family?"
What she hated most in her life was self-sacrificing women, just like her own mother.
"How can you say that? Our Pei family is a big family, outside..."
"Didn't you say that time is almost up? If you keep talking, it will be delayed." Feng Nanxi was a little annoyed and didn't want to listen to her talk too much nonsense.
Zhao Yaru was not in a good mood after being criticized like this.
She was so busy that she had to clean up the mess everywhere. Her mother-in-law was not a pushover either. She didn't know what she would do to Qiao Xi today.
She said impatiently, "Then hurry up and go downstairs with Pei Gan at seven o'clock."
"Um."
Feng Nanxi stared at herself in the mirror with heavy makeup, feeling a little dissatisfied.
Once again, I feel that money is not easy to make!
…
It's almost seven o'clock.
The parking lot at Shisanwan Wharf is already full of luxury cars, and most of the guests have arrived.
Zhao Yaru and Pei Zheng stood at the door to welcome the guests, and Feng Nanxi's father Feng Mingde also came over.
Relying on the fact that he was the father-in-law of the Pei family, he greeted passing guests with a somewhat flattering smile on his face, and also wanted to take the opportunity to get close to the Pei family's network.
"Congratulations, President Pei!"
"We originally thought we could become in-laws with President Pei, but we didn't expect you to find a wife for your brother without even saying a word. This is quite surprising."
Pei Zheng is a man who won't release his eagle until he sees the rabbit. It is really amazing that he went to the Feng family.
Could it be that the Feng family has some background that they don’t know about?
Pei Zheng said with a polite smile: "Agan chose it himself, and we agree with it."
"Yes, yes. My daughter is beautiful and lively. Master Pei has good taste." Feng Mingde grabbed the guest's hand and said, "Let's celebrate! Let's sit inside..."
The guests who came in were made a little embarrassed by him, but Feng Mingde acted as if he didn't notice and continued to greet them in a flattering manner.
Pei Zheng's face was a little dark.
Zhao Yaru knew that he felt embarrassed, so she looked at Feng Mingde and said, "Uncle Feng, why don't you go in and rest for a while? How can you be the one entertaining the guests?"
Feng Mingde seemed not to understand her hint. He waved his hand and said, "We are all family. There is no need to be polite. I will ask Yunchuan to come and help with the reception. I also want to help with my sister's wedding."
Zhao Yaru was at a loss for words and didn't know what to do.
The Feng family is so shameless, can we really get along with each other in the future?
If the Feng family doesn’t have the rumored gold mine, wouldn’t all this trouble be in vain?
She glanced at Feng Mingde with some dissatisfaction, and felt angry when she saw his smiling face.
He glanced towards the banquet hall again and saw the charming woman, which made him even angrier.
How could she not guess the reason why her husband called that witch back home.
Someone on the deck shouted, "Master Zhong is here!"
"The eldest or the second young master?"
"Of course it's the eldest young master. He has a very good relationship with President Pei. It's natural for him to come and show his support at such an important occasion."
When Zhao Yaru heard that Zhong Lingxiao was coming, she put on a proper smile. But before she and Pei Zheng could step forward, a figure rushed over.
"Young Master Zhong! Hello, hello!"
Feng Mingde grabbed Zhong Lingxiao's hand and shook it twice, saying with emotion: "It's been many years since we last met, and I didn't expect you to have grown so big! The last time I saw you, you were still wearing open-crotch pants. Our two families are destined to be together! Your old man is very clever, and my old man was angered to death by him. I heard that the old man is in the hospital. Is he dying?"
Who comes up to ask if anyone's elders are dead?
Feng Mingde is not afraid of offending people.
Zhong Lingxiao pulled his hand back unceremoniously, looking down on Feng Mingde. "The Zhong and Feng families don't have much of a relationship. I came here today to congratulate the Pei family. Please respect yourself. My old man is in good health and will recover sooner or later."
Although he really wanted the old man to die quickly, he still had to save face in front of outsiders.
He looked at Pei Zheng unceremoniously and said, "Boss Pei, this marriage is not very smart of yours."
Pei Zheng disliked Zhong Lingxiao's arrogance and foolishness, but since they were all in the same boat, he could only tolerate it. He said, "Young people are free to fall in love, and I can only support them. Young Master Zhong, please come in and be at your ease. Yaru, please invite Young Master Zhong in."
"Mr. Zhong, please."
Zhong Lingxiao snorted coldly at Feng Mingde and walked in.
Feng Mingde didn't care. After doing so many things that were not appreciated, he became thick-skinned. Now that Zhong Lingxiao was gone, he moved on to the next target.
Pei Zheng disliked him from the bottom of his heart.
"Mr. Huo! Madam Huo!"
Feng Mingde shouted loudly and ran over again, "Great benefactor!"
When Pei Zheng saw it, his face turned pale.
He actually tried to please the Huo family. He was trying to trample on the face of the Pei family.
"Mrs. Huo, thank you so much for saving my son. My son is safe now. The doctor said if we had waited any longer, his leg would have been lost. You are our family's benefactor. When will you come home for a simple meal?"
He doesn't avoid suspicion at all, as if he doesn't know the grudge between the Pei family and the Huo family at all, and he wants to curry favor with everyone!
Pei Zheng was furious when he saw this!
Qiao Xi was also surprised.
But she said politely, "It's my duty to help. If it were anyone else, I would have saved them too."
Feng Mingde gave a thumbs up and said, "Dr. Qiao, you are so kind-hearted. I admire people like you. Please do me a favor and let me treat your whole family to a good meal someday."
Qiao Xi smiled and did not accept it.
She was a little confused as to why the Feng family suddenly tried to please her. Last time, Feng Nanxi brought a gift and said she wanted to thank her.
Pei Zheng felt extremely embarrassed watching from the side.
As relatives of the Pei family, the Feng family actually tried to please the bitch Qiao Xi.
He found an excuse to trick Feng Mingde into the banquet hall. Feng Mingde was reluctant to leave, but eventually he left.
Only then did Pei Zheng look at the Huo family. It was a big scene.
