Time quickly moved to the next day.
The day of Zhao Guangcai's banquet.
Qingfeng Tower is now surrounded by police tape.
Although Zhao Guangcai did not make any requests, his subordinates had already made clear arrangements for the banquet.
Qingfenglou is not a star-rated hotel, but a private restaurant that brings together local specialty dishes.
The decor is also very unique, with most of the items inside being antiques, giving it a very high-class feel.
Moreover, they don't serve just anyone. Ordinary people who want to eat here have to become members and pass an approval process.
Therefore, this place is particularly suitable for important officials to conduct business receptions and hold regular banquets.
It's stylish enough, and it doesn't exceed the limit.
Today, Zhao Guangcai invited mostly his former students and associates, as well as some business owners with whom he has good personal relationships.
However, many bigwigs who were not invited also came after hearing the news, wanting to befriend Zhao Guangcai and give him gifts.
However, these people were not qualified to enter Qingfeng Tower and were waiting outside the door.
From around 8 a.m. until after 9 a.m., a large crowd gathered outside the door, but most of them stood obediently outside, as if being punished, and no one dared to make a loud noise.
Among them were Liu Hongtao and his son, as well as Wang Jinlian.
Liu Hongtao originally did not intend to let Wang Jinlian come, but Wang Jinlian insisted on coming to broaden her horizons.
A woman like her would never miss an opportunity to climb the social ladder.
I'm really lucky; all the men I've dated are rich second-generation heirs.
Let's not even talk about Yuan Ye; she was blind to his abilities. But the Jin and Liu families were the ones who genuinely helped her achieve her triple jump.
Although she is now Liu's prospective daughter-in-law, she is not content with that. Perhaps she will take advantage of today's occasion to leap into the air and complete a quadruple jump.
She kept searching through the crowd, not letting any of the young second-generation or old men slip by, and kept asking Liu Peng, who was standing next to her, about their identities.
Liu Peng didn't think too much about it and patiently introduced it to her in a low voice.
But in reality, the Liu family is already quite powerful. There are very few families present that are more powerful than the Liu family.
After all, it's impossible for the bigwigs of top-tier families to stand outside as punishment; those who came have basically already been invited inside by Leader Zhao.
Before long, Wang Jinlian felt bored, and her legs were sore and swollen.
"Oh dear, when can we go in? My legs are numb!" Wang Jinlian couldn't help but complain.
Liu Hongtao's expression changed. "You idiot, keep your voice down. What kind of occasion is this? Do you think you have the right to complain?"
In Wang Jinlian's eyes, the new father-in-law was quite dignified, and she immediately shut her mouth in fright.
Liu Peng, however, comforted them, saying, "It's okay to stand for a while! The banquet has already started. Once my second uncle has a moment to introduce us to Leader Zhao, we can go in!"
Liu Peng's second maternal uncle, Shao Junjie, was Zhao Guangcai's secretary. After working hard in the secretariat for five years, he was finally promoted by Zhao Guangcai to become the deputy mayor's secretary.
Shao Junjie will be in charge of all matters, big and small, for today's banquet.
Wang Jinlian pursed her lips, but didn't know what to say, so she had to keep quiet.
Just then, a young couple walked in from outside, hand in hand.
It was none other than Mr. and Mrs. Lin Yu, who had promised Liang Qingxia yesterday that they would attend the banquet here.
Lin Yu and Lu Xueqing stayed at the new company's apartment last night. After getting up this morning, they tidied up and rushed over to the banquet.
I thought it was a private banquet, but I didn't expect so many people to come.
"The one surnamed Lin?" Wang Jinlian's eyes immediately reddened when she saw Lin Yu. What a small world!
They actually delivered themselves to our doorstep?
My second uncle is Zhao's secretary, such a high-ranking official, wouldn't it be easy for him to get you?
Upon thinking of this, Wang Jinlian immediately walked towards Lin Yu.
"Hey! You stop right there! Who let you in?"
Wang Jinlian pointed at Lin Yu and shouted, "You're just an ordinary citizen, is this a place for you to come to?"
The noise was so loud that the people around naturally heard it and turned to look.
Liu Hongtao and his son were chatting with someone when they were startled.
Liu Hongtao scolded his son, "Why didn't you keep an eye on her? Aren't you afraid of making a fool of yourself?"
Liu Peng looked embarrassed. "Dad, I didn't notice either, but what's this kid doing here?"
Liu Peng narrowed his eyes slightly.
Liu Hongtao glanced at Lin Yu and sneered, "I guess he's here for the Blue Book Project too!"
"Dad, how about I take a few people and chase him away!" Liu Peng snorted, still holding a grudge against Lin Yu for slapping him yesterday.
Liu Hongtao frowned. "Forget it, after all, he knows Zhao Lin!"
"What's there to be afraid of? After today, we're all under Leader Zhao's command. Zhao Lin is nothing!" Liu Peng said dismissively.
He then added, "If he really came for the Blue Book project, then he's our competitor, and we can't let him stay!"
Liu Hongtao thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "Okay, just take a few bodyguards and drive him away. Don't make any big moves, or it won't be good if we alert Leader Zhao!"
"Dad, don't be afraid, we still have Uncle!"
Liu Peng sneered and walked towards Lin Yu.
At this moment, Lin Yu couldn't help but frown.
I never expected to run into this jinx here. My world is so narrow.
"Honey, who is this?!" Lu Xueqing frowned, feeling that this woman was very impolite.
Wang Jinlian sneered, "Who am I? Heh! Judging from your attire, you must be a rich young lady, right? But I have to tell you about your husband. He's just a gigolo, and he has some shady dealings with the Yuan family, especially that Yuan Fang. Maybe the two of them have already been having an affair. Don't be fooled by him!"
These were all fabrications by Wang Jinlian, but in her eyes, Lin Yu was indeed a gigolo. Even if the richest man, Zhao, bowed to Lin Yu, she believed it was only because of the Yuan family. Therefore, she didn't mind stirring things up in front of Lu Xueqing.
However, Lu Xueqing already had some misunderstandings about Yuan Fang, so hearing this naturally stirred her emotions, and she subconsciously looked at Lin Yu.
Lin Yu's face darkened. "What the hell are you spouting? Are you looking for death?"
If it weren't for Wang Jinlian's pregnancy, he wouldn't have let this woman off so easily. He never expected her to be so suicidal this time, insisting on running into him.
Staring at Lin Yu with murderous eyes, Wang Jinlian felt guilty and quickly took two steps back, but still gritted her teeth and said, "What, you're not convinced? You're just a gigolo, bewitching Miss Yuan. Yuan Fang even broke off her engagement with the Lou family for you. What else are you but a gigolo!"
Wow!
The crowd immediately started discussing it.
Some of the bigwigs present had heard about the matter between the Yuan and Lou families. Although they didn't know the specifics, the result was that the marriage agreement between the Yuan and Lou families did not come to fruition.
I never expected it would be related to this young man?
