Chapter 200 The Mysterious Man in the Study (1)
After the training.
"Sister Ci, there is a very special party at the Xue family tonight. Do you want to go with us?" Lu Xing invited Chu Ci.
"I'm going back to bed."
"This party is very special. Although it's held at the Xue family's house, it's actually a welcoming banquet for the president of Haisheng Group. Many people wanted invitations to this party but couldn't get one."
If Lu Xing hadn't said anything, the Chu family wouldn't have received the invitation.
"I'm going back to bed."
"There were all kinds of delicious food at the party. I heard that Mrs. Xue invited several Michelin three-star chefs to come to their home. The food was top-notch, and some of it usually requires reservations several months in advance."
"I don't seem to be very sleepy today."
"Yes, yes, it's better to sleep a little later tonight. My brother will drive over to pick us up later, and you can still sleep in the car for a while."
After Lu Xing finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something and knocked his head in self-blame.
How could he forget that Sister Ci is also his brother's goddess! How could he let his brother come to pick them up!
Wouldn't that mean four people would have to ride in one car again?
Thinking of the embarrassing scene when the four of them had dinner together last time, Lu Xing's scalp started to tingle.
In the evening, Lu Zhe arrived at the school gate early to wait for his younger brothers to finish school.
But when the time came, only my younger brother Lu Xing was there.
After Lu Xing got in the car, Lu Zhe looked at him.
Lu Xing felt guilty: "Brother, don't wait, it's just me."
"Isn't she going?" Lu Zhe asked. He thought she would go for the delicious food, so he asked his brother to invite her.
"She's going," Lu Xing said, "but she just left with my classmate Lin Nuo."
Lu Xing also thought that tonight would be an awkward scene of four people riding in one car.
Unexpectedly, Lin Nuo took Chu Ci away early.
He didn't even know that Lin Nuo actually drove to school by himself today.
Lu Xing looked up at Lu Zhe, and sure enough, he saw a look of disappointment on his brother's face.
Lu Xing felt helpless, thinking that his brother was going to suffer a broken heart!
But he had no choice. Chu Ci and Lin Nuo were already superior, and he couldn't help his brother anymore.
I still hope that my brother can get over the shadow of heartbreak as soon as possible!

The banquet was held at the Xue family.
Those invited were the most powerful and wealthy families in Tonghai City.
Lu Xing did not fool Chu Ci. There were indeed a lot of delicious food at the scene, many of which were difficult to find at other times.
Chu Ci cares about the food, but the others present today are more concerned about whether the president of Haisheng Group will show up.
Everyone was drinking and chatting while waiting for the mysterious president to appear.
But because no one has seen the real person, no one is sure whether the other party is already there.
In the study at the end of the second floor, warm lights illuminate the entire room.
Unlike the hustle and bustle downstairs, it is very quiet here.
Sitting at the desk in the study was a man, dressed meticulously in a tailor-made suit.
The monitor in front of me shows the surveillance footage of the banquet hall downstairs.
The man's face was calm and steady, his eyes were deep.
Suddenly, a figure appeared on the screen and the man's expression changed slightly.
The man looked at the figure and frowned slightly, as if he remembered something.
I followed the man and pressed the button next to him: "Go downstairs and bring someone up."
Chu Ci is enjoying the food at this moment.
Chu Ci ate very gracefully, neither hurried nor slow.
Food is meant to be enjoyed; swallowing it whole will ruin its flavor.
