As everyone knows, the Jiang family and the Gu family have never gotten along well.
In the same occasion, even if they get together, the two families will always secretly try to determine who is better.
However, this situation has improved after Jiang Xuxu helped solve the problem of Gu Jinrong's daughter being affected by the resentment of the cat spirit last time.
It’s just that outsiders don’t know these details.
"Xinran was supposed to come over today, but she had a stomachache before leaving, so she was delayed a little."
Given Gu Jinrong's identity, there is no need to explain these specifically.
However, he came here today for Jiang Xuxu's sake, and he had heard about some of the situations inside when he entered the garden just now, so he naturally did not hesitate to say a few more words and also expressed his attitude to all the guests.
After Chu Beihe and Gu Jinrong expressed their opinions one after another, the guests cooperated very well and went downstairs to rest under the guidance of the staff.
As the protagonist, Jiang Xuxu naturally needs to change into a new dress.
Fortunately, for such a banquet, no one would prepare only one set of clothes, and Jiang Xuxu soon changed into another look.
When she and other guests came out after resting, the messy scene had been rearranged.
It was the time when the night lights came on, and all kinds of colorful lights were lit up in the amusement park, creating a completely different dream scene from the daytime.
When the dinner officially began, the guests seemed to have forgotten the previous "little accident" and soon immersed themselves in the joyful atmosphere of the banquet.
Many guests were looking at the main table from afar, where Chu Beihe, Jiang Huai and Gu Jinrong were talking at the same table, their eyes full of envy.
These three people can be said to be the three most outstanding young people in Hai City.
They represent the backbone of the younger generation in Hai City's top wealthy circles.
Except for Chu Beihe, the young head of the family who has already taken office, the other two are the intended heirs of their respective families.
They are the envy of the second generation of each family, but also their nightmare.
"Ever since the Great Demon King ascended the throne, I haven't seen these three people together for a long time."
A second generation whispered to the person next to him,
"After meeting the three of them, my parents will scold me again when I go back."
"That's right." The person next to him echoed in a low voice, "My eldest brother is already very competitive. The pressure at home is already so great, and now the external pressure is even greater..."
"Why……"
Several people sighed together, and some couldn't help but start gossiping.
"Are you saying that Young Master Chu and Jiang Xuxu are engaged? Didn't they say before that they were just dating?"
"Didn't the Great Devil just say that Jiang Xuxu is his fiancée? How could that be false?"
One person said, and then looked at the person who just gossiped.
"How dare you question the Great Demon King's words... You are finished."
"…How could I have any doubts?! Don't accuse me of anything. I was clearly shocked! My old man said a few days ago that the two families might get married, but who knew that they would actually get engaged quietly…"
"If you ask me, the best one is Jiang Xuxu."
Someone said with emotion, "She returned to the Jiang family less than half a year ago, and she conquered the big devil. She brought together the three major families at a birthday party!"
"Ha, it would be exciting if the Bai family came today."
The four major families in Hai City, Chu, Jiang, Bai and Gu.
The four companies control almost the entire economic lifeline of the south.
But everyone knows that the four families never appear in public unless on important occasions, and it is almost impossible to get all four families together for a small banquet like this one.
Of course, the second generation can only think about it.
But sometimes, maybe what you think really comes true.
When the dinner was in the second half, a staff member came in, leading a woman in a white suit.
The woman was about thirty years old, with a capable and neat temperament, like the aura of a strong woman. At first glance, she didn't seem to be here for a birthday party, but more like she was here for a meeting.
The second generation were the first to see the newcomers, and they were all stunned as if they had seen a ghost.
"Bai...Sister Bai..."
A man pointed in the direction of the woman, trembling, and was so shocked that he was almost speechless.
Not only were the younger ones shocked, but even the older guests could not help but show surprise.
The Bai family, someone really came!
Bai Yanqing is a well-known strong woman among the younger generation in the circle, and is also currently half the helmsman of the Bai family.
The reason why it is said half is because Bai Yanqing controls half of the Bai family's enterprises, and the remaining half, because the head of the Bai family favors boys over girls, even though Bai Yanqing is so outstanding that he makes other men in the Bai family look like scum, Bai's father has held on to it and refused to let go.
Mr. Bai refuses to acknowledge his daughter's excellence.
But most people in the circle have already tacitly accepted that Bai Yanqing will be the next head of the Bai family.
Inheriting the Bai family is only a matter of time.
I originally thought that the gathering of three of the four major families tonight was already a big deal, but who would have thought that Bai Yanqing, this workaholic woman, would come in person.
You know, even if it was the birthday of Jiang Huai, the legitimate heir, this person just asked someone to send a gift and that was it.
But today I came here specifically for Jiang Xuxu.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Jiang Xuxu again.
I want to know where the eldest daughter of the Jiang family got the power from. She has been back for less than half a year, but she has already conquered the heirs of the other three families?
I'm afraid this is not a curse?
As today's protagonist, Jiang Xuxu was actually a little confused.
Mainly, she didn't know this person.
To be precise, she had almost no contact with the Bai family.
Although Bai Shuqin often said in the past that the Bai family was her cousin family, but as far as Jiang Xuxu knew, the relationship between the Bai family and Bai Shuqin's family was as distant as it could be, and they didn't even know Bai Shuqin at all.
Therefore, Jiang Xuxu and the Bai family are really not familiar with each other.
Jiang Xuxu didn't know Bai Yanqing, but the latter came straight to her after entering the door. There was no extra nonsense when they met, and he said directly,
"I came here today because someone asked me to give Miss Jiang a birthday present."
As she spoke, she handed over the gift in her hand, with a cold and beautiful look, which gave off a sense of alienation.
"Happy birthday."
Bai Yanqing's tone was very understated, but it was enough to make the guests present gasp.
Who has such a big face?
Can we even ask the eldest daughter of the Bai family to come and deliver the gift in person?
This is even more rare than Bai Yanqing himself coming to the birthday party on behalf of the Bai family.
Jiang Xuxu looked at the gift handed to her, but did not reach out to take it immediately. She asked her,
"Can I ask who entrusted you with this?"
Bai Yanqing's eyes swept across Jiang Xuxu's serious and solemn features, and he became slightly more interested, but his words were still vague.
"Anyway, it's not my old man."
As she spoke, she glanced around and suddenly met the dark eyes of Chu Beihe beside her.
Bai Yanqing's heart skipped a beat. He cursed inwardly, but it was not good to continue fooling the little girl. He lowered his voice and said,
"I'm a friend."
She paused and added, "His last name is Wen."
Jiang Xuxu's eyes trembled slightly, and he asked almost subconsciously,
"Female?"
Bai Yanqing glanced at her and said, "A man."
Jiang Xuxu: ...
Sure enough, it’s not the master.
