"Thank me, kid! This is great news! Brother Dong has agreed to come! He happens to be free next Sunday. Prepare a few bottles of good wine, preferably Moutai, and take this opportunity to have a few drinks with him. Last time, you promised to investigate the tomb robbers outside the city. Have you figured it out yet?"
Gu Mingfeng was instantly excited. "Is this true? Why would he agree to come? Then I..."
"Don't panic, just improve the standard of the banquet. I'll be there that day to help you."
Gu Wei originally called Jiang Bin just to give it a try, but he didn't realize that Xing Haodong was right next to him. He barely had to say anything and Xing Haodong agreed.
Gu Mingfeng was overjoyed, "Okay, I will definitely prepare everything!"
Because of this good news, most of his worries disappeared immediately. His mind worked rapidly and he came up with a good idea.
"Ruoxi, why don't we just rent the cafeteria in the compound? There are also private rooms there, right? Let's rent them all! My cousin is bringing guests, so we can set up the main table in the private rooms. As for Jiang Mingxin, let's put her in the lobby outside and sit with your classmates."
Bai Ruoxi looked at him in surprise, "Sit with my classmates?"
"Yes, we are all the same age, so it's perfect for us to sit together." Gu Mingfeng's mind was now completely focused on pleasing Xing Haodong, and everything else was forgotten. "Just tell your classmates to take care of her."
His plan was to lead Xing Haodong and Gu Wei directly to the main table as soon as they arrived to prevent them from meeting Mingxin.
If they asked, she would try to get away with it by saying she was drunk or had soiled her clothes and went back to her room.
So what should Bai Ruoxi do? Gu Mingfeng hadn't figured it out yet.
There was still a full week until the birthday party, and he felt that he could definitely come up with a solution that would satisfy both parties.
However, things did not develop as he imagined.
Just when the birthday party was almost ready, Gu Wei called him again.
"Mingfeng, I almost forgot to remind you that Brother Dong said he wouldn't sit at the same table with Director Bai and the other leaders. He came here in a private capacity and will just sit with people of his generation. Don't make any mistakes!"
"Also, hurry up and go to the department store and buy Mingxin a nice dress. The one she wore last time was awful. All the men in our Gu family are willing to spend money on their wives, so why are you so stingy when it comes to you? You can't embarrass the Gu family in front of our distinguished guests."
