In the banquet hall.
The huge crystal chandelier on the ceiling reflected a dazzling light. The long dining table was covered with a snow-white tablecloth and filled with various desserts. White champagne was piled high, and waiters in black work clothes stood in every corner.
Guests arrived one after another. Jin Weitai, the host, stood at the door of the banquet hall to welcome them, and greeted each guest who came in with a smile.
As time passed, the status of the guests who came in became higher and higher. As soon as they entered the banquet hall, they were surrounded by small and medium-sized entrepreneurs who had been waiting for a long time.
As Mr. Fang and Mrs. Fang arrived at the door of the banquet hall, Jin Weitai came to greet them.
"Oh my! What a rare guest! Isn't this Mr. Fang?"
His voice was so loud that everyone around looked over, and all kinds of ambiguous glances swept between the two of them.
It was strange. Aren't these two sworn enemies? The Jin family had just snatched an important cooperation from Wanchuan, so why was Fang Mao rushing over to congratulate them?
Fang Mao's face stiffened slightly. Madam Fang pinched him quietly and reminded him in a low voice: "Xiangyang is still behind."
"Dad, Mom."
As soon as she finished speaking, a joyful voice came from behind.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and saw Xiangfang Yang coming in with a handsome man in his arms. The two of them were very close, arm in arm, shoulder to shoulder.
"Chengzhou is here." Fang Mao's plump face was full of smiles. "Xiangyang, you too, you didn't even tell us you were coming over. Come and say hello to Mr. Jin."
Xiang Fangyang walked forward with Zheng Chengzhou on his arm and said with a smile, "Hello, Mr. Jin."
Jin Weitai narrowed his eyes and said cheerfully, "It's been a few years since we last met. Xiangyang has grown so big already?"
He turned his gaze to Zheng Chengzhou and asked, "What is this?"
"My boyfriend." Xiang Yang shook Zheng Chengzhou's arm, and he rubbed his head.
Hearing this, everyone around showed surprised expressions.
The Zheng family and the Fang family, when did they become relatives?
Immediately, people who knew the situation rushed forward and surrounded the Fang family members.
"Mr. Zheng is so handsome and imposing. The two of them are really a perfect match!"
"That's right, with the two powerful companies joining forces, we will definitely reach new heights in the future. Don't forget our brothers when the time comes..."
Fang Mao couldn't stop smiling at the compliments: "Of course, of course!"
When some people praise something, naturally there will be others who will look down on it.
In the corner, a gloomy-looking man stared at Xiang Yang and his companions with bloodshot eyes.
Jin Weitai glanced at Fang Mao sarcastically and continued to wait in front of the door, as if their excitement had nothing to do with him.
"Hey, who is Mr. Jin still waiting for?" someone asked in a low voice.
"I heard someone from the Mu family is coming, it seems to be that person..."
"It's just a rumor." The man expressed his disbelief. "It's been a long time since President Mu appeared in public. It's more likely that the one who came was that tyrant Mu Qiu."
Seeing that he didn't believe it, the person who answered shrugged and said, "Just wait and see, believe it or not."
At this time, a waiter ran in quickly from outside and whispered something into Jin Weitai's ear. The smile on his face deepened and he hurried out.
As soon as he raised his foot, Zhu Yuanqing and Mu Honghui had already entered the door.
Suddenly, the banquet hall became quiet.
The originally noisy crowd all widened their eyes at the same time and looked towards the gate.
"He's really here..." someone murmured.
Among the crowd, only Fang Mao's face turned ashen.
"Mr. Mu's visit really brings honor to our humble place!" Jin Weitai laughed.
"Mr. Jin." Mu Honghui nodded.
He was wearing a formal black suit with silver-gray patterns embroidered on the cuffs and collar. On his chest was a silver-black diagonal tie tied in a beautiful Windsor knot, and on his nose was a pair of silver-framed glasses.
Everyone's attention was attracted by the newcomer. After being surprised, they consciously and covertly looked at Mu Honghui's wheelchair, and then glanced at his legs covered with a blanket.
In just a few seconds, this place became the focus of the entire banquet hall.
Zhu Yuanqing stood behind Mu Honghui, took a few steps forward, subtly blocking those ambiguous gazes, and said with a smile: "Boss Jin, why don't we go in and talk?"
When he was silent, no one noticed that there was another person here. Now that he opened his mouth, he attracted most of the attention.
The man was wearing a well-made suit, looking simple and clean. Under his smooth and full forehead were a pair of naturally sharp eyebrows. The tails of his eyes were naturally upturned, with a natural smile in them.
What? Now appearance is also a factor in recruitment?
This man is so conspicuous among the middle-aged men. Why didn't anyone notice him just now?
The others were just surprised by Zhu Yuanqing's appearance, but Jin Weitai paused.
Isn't this Mr. Xu?!
He was briefly distracted, but when he met Zhu Yuanqing's slightly warning gaze, he quickly came back to his senses.
"Come on, please come in." Jin Weitai slapped his head to cover up his previous gaffe.
Mu Honghui looked at Jin Weitai with deep, ambiguous eyes and allowed himself to be pushed into the banquet hall.
Listening to the steady footsteps behind him, Mu Honghui thought that his assistant seemed to have some little secret with someone else.
Different from the previous situation where Fang Mao and others were rushed forward, besides Zhu Yuanqing and Jin Weitai, there were only one or two bosses who had dealt with Mu Honghui before. The rest of the people kept a distance and just kept glancing over there with their peripheral vision.
It is well known that Mu Honghui dislikes strangers. Moreover, although he appears gentle and polite in his gestures, his temper is not very good. Now he has a limp. These people are afraid that they will accidentally violate some taboo and be targeted by this living devil.
