Chapter 376 Chi Feng Regrets His Actions
On the seventh day of the first lunar month, Chi Mingchu turned 18.
The Chi family has been having a hard time during this period, so they are taking this opportunity to build good relationships with people in the circle. Before the coming-of-age ceremony began, Chi Feng personally wrote many invitation letters and sent out all that could be sent out.
Alas, thinking back to the time when the Chi family was so prosperous, I wonder how many people tried to flatter them and build relationships with them.
Today…
Chi Feng was extremely sad. At his daughter's welcoming party, people in the circle tried their best to get in, regardless of whether they had an invitation or not. But when it came to the coming-of-age ceremony, he was worried that no one would come, which would be embarrassing.
It's really sad.
"It's already this late, why are there so few people here?" Xia Shuyu and Chi Feng were at the door early to greet the guests. The banquet was about to begin, but only a few people in the circle showed up.
I originally thought that at least one third of them would come.
Such a big venue, so many drinks and snacks...
How embarrassing.
Xia Shuyu regretted it very much. Maybe it would have been better if the family had gathered together to celebrate her coming-of-age ceremony in early Ming Dynasty.
I sent out so many invitations, but few were willing to come. How can I face people in the future?
"Wait a little longer." Chi Feng stood there for a long time with a dark face, but the door was still deserted. He gradually realized that the Chi family had a terrible reputation in the circle.
And all this was caused by Sheng Beibei.
Damn it, if I had known I shouldn’t have adopted Sheng Beibei. I didn’t get any benefit at all, and instead she was harmed so miserably!
Even though he cursed in his heart, Chi Feng couldn't help but think of another possibility. If he had been nicer to Sheng Beibei in the past few years, would he have been connected with the Gu and Sheng families by now?
Even if he lied and claimed to be Sheng Beibei's biological father and took her home, if he really treated her as his own daughter...
If the Chi family could make good friends with the Gu and Sheng families, they would definitely be able to move to a higher level instead of becoming a pariah.
Regret and hatred.
He knew that Shuyu didn't like Sheng Beibei, so he should pay more attention to her.
At least communicate well with Shuyu, ask her not to scold Sheng Beibei all the time, not to punish Sheng Beibei by not letting her eat often, and to take Sheng Beibei to see a doctor in time. If you can't give her tens of thousands of living expenses every month, a few hundred or a few thousand yuan should be ok, right?
The Chi family had never been short of this little money before.
And Ming Chu, ah, he knew that the child was unwilling to accept it, but her disappearance had nothing to do with Sheng Beibei after all, and bullying her was really a bit too much.
As early as when he learned that Mingchu was slandering Sheng Beibei online, he should have found a way to persuade Mingchu to let go of her hatred for Sheng Beibei. Otherwise, Mingchu wouldn't be criticized like this now.
His Mingchu was pitiful enough. He stayed in an orphanage for more than ten years and finally came back. Alas.
Chi Feng was already a bit bald, and his poor hair was almost falling out due to worry. What would happen to this child Mingchu in the future? Will the Ji family still carry out the child marriage? The Ji and Chi families are not considered to be a good match.
As the time for the banquet drew closer, Xia Shuyu became so anxious that she began to sweat.
Xia Shuyu pulled the dazed Chi Feng and asked in a low voice: "What should we do now? We can't just hold the coming-of-age ceremony like this?" If her Mingchu went downstairs and only saw a few scattered guests, how sad would she be?
It would be fine if it was a family dinner, but that’s not the key point.
Chi Feng also felt that this was not appropriate. After thinking for a moment, he came up with a solution that could barely be considered a solution.
"I asked all the employees in the company to come here."
The Chi family hasn't gone bankrupt, and they still have employees. They should be happy to come over to eat, drink and have fun if we reimburse their travel expenses. What can I do if I don’t want to? The boss has spoken, so let’s just treat it as a company dinner.
After receiving the news, the employees of Chi's company rushed over one after another.
The banquet finally did not become dull.
