The banquet was held in the Zhai family's hotel. It is said that Mr. Zhai made his fortune from this hotel. He originally just rented a small restaurant and accumulated his original assets by relying on his cooking skills.
After Mr. Zhai became rich, he bought the property rights of the building where the hotel was located at that time, demolished it and rebuilt it into the current luxury hotel. With the development over the years, it is also considered one of the top luxury hotels in Jiangzhou.
The Zhai family held a very grand birthday party for Mr. Zhai’s 80th birthday. A red carpet was laid in front of the hotel, with beautiful receptionists standing on both sides of the carpet. There was also a sign-in board and a gift money station.
All the guests coming and going were stars and celebrities, dressed in fancy clothes. Those who didn't know would think they had walked into some wrong ceremony.
Cheng Yuesheng took Qin Heque's arm, and the two followed Mr. Qin into the hotel.
Old Master Qin simply ignored the sign-in area and took Butler Feng to give the gift first.
As soon as the Qin family members appeared at the birthday party, they attracted a lot of attention. Wherever they went, people would secretly glance at them and whisper to each other from time to time.
In particular, many young women's eyes fell on Qin Heque and Cheng Yuesheng.
Many people repeatedly observed the two of them. Cheng Yuesheng felt like she was being watched with suspicion, and she unconsciously tightened her grip on Qin Heque's hand and moved closer to him.
Cheng Yuesheng finally understood why noble ladies in the Middle Ages always brought fans when attending banquets. After all, this way they could talk about other people's gossip without being seen by others.
"Don't be afraid." Qin Heque patted her hand, his voice full of reassuring strength.
"Grandpa and I are here, no one would be so blind."
The birthday party was held in the banquet hall, and it was said that the Zhai family set up eighty tables.
The arrival of Old Master Qin and Qin Heque quickly attracted the attention of everyone present.
"Mr. Qin, I didn't expect you to come. I thought Old Man Zhai was just bragging!"
Old Master Qin retired after handing over the Zhilan Group to Qin Heque. Since then, he has rarely appeared in public. The reason he gave was that he was too busy and tired at work before, and now that he is retired, he doesn't want to socialize with messy people. He wants to enjoy his retirement life leisurely alone.
"It's been a long time since I last saw you, Old Fu. You look quite energetic." Old Master Qin looked up and down at the person who was talking to him. The other person was not young either, and he was an old acquaintance of his.
"You have to be more energetic. I'm not as lucky as you. If I had a grandson as good as Aque, I would have retired and enjoyed life like you." Old Master Fu got angry when he thought of those unimproving guys in his family.
"Who wouldn't envy Old Qin for having such a wonderful grandson like Ah Que? If my grandsons were half as smart as Ah Que, I'd be thankful." Another person said. He looked at Qin Heque, then at Cheng Yuesheng, who was being held by Qin Heque, and asked, "Is this Ah Que's girlfriend?"
"Long time no see, Mr. Fu, Mr. Zhao, this is my girlfriend Cheng Yuesheng." Qin Heque introduced.
Cheng Yuesheng also greeted: "Hello."
The two old men looked at Cheng Yuesheng for a while.
"Mr. Qin is lucky. A Que has chosen a good girlfriend. She looks pure and upright." Mr. Fu said with envy.
"Of course not. A Que has good taste. The girl looks good." Old Master Zhao felt that Cheng Yuesheng was much better than those little stars and internet celebrities that his family had found.
"Shengsheng is indeed a good girl." Old Master Qin looked proud.
Several old men were reminiscing about the past, and Qin Heque was also chatting quietly with Cheng Yuesheng.
"Mr. Zhao, Mr. Fu and my grandfather are old acquaintances. They did business together in their early years. They are both shareholders of the group. Now the Zhao family mainly deals in home appliances, and the Fu family does import and export furniture business." Qin Heque whispered to Cheng Yuesheng.
Cheng Yuesheng nodded as he listened.
"Are you thirsty? Would you like some juice?" Qin Heque asked. He noticed that Cheng Yuesheng had just glanced at the neatly arranged drink table not far away.
"good."
Qin Heque immediately asked the waiter to bring drinks, and ordered juice for Cheng Yuesheng and champagne for himself.
Cheng Yuesheng looked at the champagne in his hand with a bit of jealousy in her eyes. She hadn't had an alcoholic drink for a long time.
The desire in her eyes was too obvious to ignore.
"Want to drink?" Qin Heque waved the champagne in front of her.
Cheng Yuesheng didn't answer, but his eyes followed the champagne.
He handed the champagne to Cheng Yuesheng. Cheng Yuesheng could already smell the rich floral and fruity aroma of the champagne. She raised her eyes and looked straight at Qin Heque.
"You want me to drink?" Cheng Yuesheng tilted her head. She didn't think Qin Heque would really let her drink.
"You can have a sip." The champagne was not strong enough, and Qin Heque thought he could let her taste it.
Cheng Yuesheng looked at him suspiciously, hesitated for a moment, and reached out to take the wine glass.
When his hand was about to touch the wine glass, Qin Heque immediately withdrew it.
Cheng Yuesheng's cheeks puffed up, and she knew that this man was teasing her. Why didn't she realize that he was so mean before?
"You lied to me." Cheng Yuesheng accused, looking pitiful.
"I'm not lying to you. You can take a small sip, but you can't drink it all by yourself." Qin Heque was afraid to give her the wine glass. If she didn't know how to control herself, she would drink half of it.
"Then how can I drink it?" Cheng Yuesheng glared at him.
Qin Heque smiled.
Cheng Yuesheng always felt that his smile was a bit malicious.
"Use my hand and I'll feed you." He said openly.
Cheng Yuesheng's eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief, "You feed me?"
"Well, do you want a drink?" He extended the wine glass again and put it close to Cheng Yuesheng's rosy lips.
