Being a Lady of an Influential Family

Chapter 235: Birthday Banquet (3rd watch)

At seven o'clock in the evening, people from the Hong Gang knocked on the door and respectfully invited the two of them to attend the birthday banquet downstairs.

Leng Sa was somewhat interested in this, but Fu Fengcheng was obviously interested. In the end, Xia Wei'an was only allowed to accompany Leng Sa to the banquet, while he still rested in the room.

Hong Gang didn't dare to say anything more about this, after all, a large part of tonight's guests came for the auction later on, and people on the road were not interested in Hong Tianci and Hong Gang.

It is true that several rich and powerful bigwigs chose to stay in their rooms to rest and did not intend to celebrate the birthday of an old gangster, let alone have any dealings with these people on the road.

Hong Tianci himself obviously understood this truth, and he explained in advance that he would not let the members of the Hong Gang offend these big bosses at will.

And compared to those big shots who came from afar, Fu Dashao, the local snake in Yongcheng, is naturally not someone they can offend. Therefore, the people who came to invite him just respectfully asked Leng Sha to go on, without showing any displeasure at all.

Leng Sa and Xia Wei'an went downstairs with the guides, glanced at the guides in front and lowered their voices: "What else do you want to do?"

Xia Wei'an was not as eloquent as Xu Shaoming, and said in a very regular way: "Young Madam is worrying too much, Young Master just doesn't like this kind of occasion."

"..." I believe you are a ghost.

The huge banquet hall on the second floor of the banquet was decorated magnificently and festively, which was different from the last time I attended the banquet of the chamber of commerce. This time it was a purely traditional banquet. Hundreds of tables were neatly arranged in the whole hall. Hong Tianci was chatting with the people around him in front of the big table at the front of the hall. He was still glowing red, obviously in a good mood.

Seeing Leng Sa coming in, Hong Tianci immediately apologized to the people around him and came up to him.

He didn't see Fu Fengcheng, nor did he show any displeasure and said with a smile, "Young Madam, please take a seat." He directly led Leng Sa to the front table.

Leng Sa took a look at the guests at that table, it was obvious that they hadn't arrived yet, except for a few Daoist bosses whom he had met in Baiye Mountain Villa before, there were also a few unknown people who were obviously not Daoists.

Both Shang Feiyun and Long Baoyun haven't arrived yet, so the place is naturally reserved for them. Seeing Hong Tianci leading Leng Sa over, everyone looked a little surprised.

If Leng Sa came with First Young Master Fu, it would be no problem to sit at the main table. But Mr. Fu didn't come, only Mrs. Fu was alone, which was not only inappropriate but also embarrassing.

What did you ask a group of old men to talk to the young lady of the Fu family? Even if there is Shang Feiyun, can Shang Feiyun be an ordinary woman? Didn't you see that even the fourth young master of the Fu family took the second seat?

Leng Sa followed Hong Tianci to the front, and saw Chen Wan sitting not far from the other side without any surprise. Waving at Chen Wan with a smile, Leng Sa stopped and said with a smile, "Old Hong, I'm young and inexperienced, so I won't join in the fun."

Hong Tianci smiled and said, "How can this be done? Let the governor and the young master know that we have neglected the young lady. It's not easy for me to explain to the governor and the young master."

After hearing this, the people next to him couldn't help but look at Leng Sa again. I became a little curious about the position of the young lady of the Fu family in the Fu family.

Leng Sa secretly scolded Hong Tianci for an old thing in his heart, but Feng Danyun smiled softly on his face, "Old Hong is joking, if I take advantage of my status at a young age, my father will blame me I don’t know how serious it is. There are friends I know over there, so I’ll just sit there.”

Chen Wan is a well-known wealthy businessman in Anxia, ​​so the seat arranged for her would not be bad even if she wasn't the main table.

Seeing that Leng Sa was so persistent, Hong Tianci naturally couldn't force it, so he had to send Leng Sa to Chen Wan's side and exchanged a few pleasantries before returning to the main seat.

"Young Master Fu didn't come?" Seeing Hong Tianci leave, Chen Wancai approached Leng Sa and asked in a low voice.

Leng Sa said: "Come here, rest upstairs."

Chen Wan nodded, her eyes fell on Xia Wei'an who was sitting next to Leng Sa, and she asked with great interest, "Who is this little brother?"

Seeing her teasing expression, Leng Sa felt a little helpless, "Sister Chen, don't bully him, this is Adjutant Xia." Xia Wei'an didn't wear a uniform today, but wore a suit and plain glasses. The handsome face with a little lack of expression has the taste of a business elite.

Leng Sa still knows some of Chen Wan's personal hobbies, but she doesn't feel bad about it. After all, men can hug left and right, who stipulates that women can't do it? As long as it's your wish, no one has anything to say.

Chen Wan herself was bullied when she was a young daughter-in-law. It was rare that she had a peaceful mind and did not take revenge on other men just because she was wronged back then. The reason why Sa was able to talk to her.

But Xia Wei'an was different. The two adjutants beside First Young Master Fu, both Xu Shaoming and Xia Wei'an, looked good. But compared with Xu Shaoming, who came from a good background, Xia Wei'an's character is not very rounded because he really struggled from the bottom.

If it was Xu Shaoming who was molested by Chen Wan, he might just pass it off as a joke, but if it was Xia Wei'an, he might just do it directly or secretly find an opportunity to clean you up.

Chen Wan raised her eyebrows slightly, and nodded to show that she understood, "It turned out to be Adjutant Xia, it's a pleasure to meet you." The one who can say that Adjutant Xia is still with Leng Sa is naturally the confidant of Young Master Fu, and they are all in the army. An elite, Chen Wan is not so ignorant and boring as to tease such a person.

Xia Wei'an nodded calmly, "Hello, Ms. Chen."

Chen Wan also ignored Xia Wei'an, and turned to talk to Leng Sa, "What's the matter with that Fourth Young Master of your family?"

Leng Sa was a little puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Chen Wan took her chin and nodded on the other side, and said in a low voice: "The girl next to him looks strange, she doesn't look like a member of the Fu family, right? Miss Zheng's family is pregnant now, it's really cool for him to bring such a girl out. Is the Zheng family vegetarian?"

Gong Sihe didn't look like an ordinary girl, even standing beside Fu Yucheng, she was graceful and not weak at all. Such a woman would naturally not be a lover or concubine, what would the Zheng family think when Fu Yucheng brought her out for a social gathering?

"The fourth younger brother and sister are inconvenient, so why don't you bring someone to entertain you?" Of course, both of them knew that the reason was pure nonsense. How could the fourth young master of the Fu family need any female relatives to attend such a birthday banquet? Even if it is really necessary, the third miss of the Fu family is still in Yongcheng.

But Leng Sa couldn't do anything about it, she didn't know which muscle of Fu Yucheng brought Gong Sihe out. Originally, she thought that Gong Sihe was here for Fu Fengcheng, but now it seems that she is simply overthinking.

Miss Gong didn't like Fu Fengcheng at all.

"What's the background of that Miss Gong?" Chen Wan asked curiously.

Leng Sa said: "He is Zhang Ruoxu's student, and I heard that he has a good family background."

Zhang Ruoxu is naturally An Xia's celebrity, after all, which powerful person is not afraid of getting sick? But if it's just Zhang Ruoxu's student, it doesn't seem to be a great status. Zhang Ruoxu has taught in the medical school for more than ten years, and it can be said that there are many students with peaches and plums all over the world.

Xia Wei'an, who was sitting next to her, said: "Miss Gong's father is a professor in the History Department of Beijing National University, her elder brother is the deputy director of the Ministry of Communications, and her aunt is the daughter-in-law of Dong Hui, the deputy director of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce."

Chen Wan was a little surprised, "After a scholarly family and an official, why did she go to study medicine?"

Xia Wei'an said: "I heard that Zhang Ruoxu has a good relationship with Miss Gong's family."

Leng Sa rolled her eyes, that guy Fu Yucheng must know Gong Sihe's background and wants to step on two boats, right? Does he have that IQ?

What's more, Gong Sihe's back sounds awesome, but it's actually as full of water as Leng Sa, the daughter of the emperor's master.

At present, Anxia is not a completely unified country in essence. The deputy director of the Ministry of Communications and the deputy director of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce sound tall, but in fact, only the one-acre three-point land that the cabinet center can control can really make a difference. Son. For example, there are other traffic bureaus in the six southern provinces, but the problem is... this traffic bureau doesn't listen to the command of the Ministry of Communications in the capital city, and it doesn't even have an affiliation relationship.

In this respect, Gong Sihe's value is not as high as Zheng Ying's, at least the Zheng family is in control of the finances of the six southern provinces.

Gossiping with Chen Wan without a word, and soon the birthday banquet began.

Shang Feiyun and Long Baoyun seemed to be arriving later than the other on purpose, they both stepped in a little bit, and happened to run into each other at the door.

Leng Sa sat on the seat and watched the two people fighting back and forth with great interest. Although she couldn't hear what they said, just looking at the tense atmosphere between the two, Leng Sa felt that even if the two suddenly pulled out their guns and shot at each other, she wouldn't be surprised.

Fortunately, the two still wanted to give Hong Tianci some face, and finally walked to the main table and sat down under Hong Tianci's persuasion.

Shang Feiyun was always cold and fierce in front of outsiders, and Long Baoyun was as lazy and casual as usual, no matter how Leng Sa looked at it, he didn't think that these two people would have any good results.

Leng Sa was a little absent-minded during the whole birthday banquet, she was still thinking about how Shang Feiyun and Hong Tianci planned to mess with Long Boyun, when and where.

Could it be that they plan to poison the birthday party? Leng Sa thought about it in her heart, and by the way secretly imagined the appearance of Long Baoyun lying on the ground bleeding from his seven orifices.

Perhaps it was because she glanced over too frequently, but Long Baoyun turned around and raised an eyebrow at her, and even raised her glass in a good mood. Leng Sa turned her face away expressionlessly, not at all cold to the handsome face that looked back and smiled at Bai Meisheng. The image of Long Boyun bleeding from seven orifices has not been erased from her mind.

This scene was noticed by Shang Feiyun, so she naturally mocked Long Boyun unceremoniously, and Long Boyun lazily teased a few words that made Shang Feiyun's face turn pale with anger.

Well, the Dragon Sect Master's expression looks even worse than Young Master Fu's.

The birthday banquet gradually came to a climax, and the guests stepped forward to congratulate Hong Tianci one after another. Leng Sa felt a little bored and took the opportunity to go out to breathe.

In such a banquet hall with hundreds of people, it is inevitable that the air will not circulate after sitting for a long time. Seeing Leng Sa get up, Xia Wei'an naturally also got up.

After leaving the hall, the noise of the birthday banquet was locked inside the heavy gate, and only the sound could be faintly heard from inside.

Leng Sa stood by the railing of the corridor outside the door, looking at the quiet hall downstairs. The hall is still draped in red and colorful, filled with various flower baskets and red silk, and there are huge longevity characters as tall as a person hanging on the walls.

"Young Madam." Xia Wei'an walked to Leng Sa and said respectfully.

Leng Sa played with the fruit knife in her hand and asked, "Where did you guys go?"

Xia Wei'an said: "Young Master will naturally rest in the room."

Leng Sa tilted her head and looked at him with a smile, "If I go back now and Fu Fengcheng is not in the room, how about you running around the hotel three times naked?"

"..."

Seeing that Xia Wei'an couldn't hide his twitching emotions even with his stiff face, Leng Sa patted him on the shoulder with a good mood and smiled, "Just kidding, don't be so nervous, you see Xu Shaoming is not as serious as you."

"You made the young lady laugh." Xia Wei'an said.

Leng Sa sighed, "Forget it, I won't embarrass you. But... I think it's not just your family who are missing today, right? Xiao Yiran hasn't left yet, why didn't he come to see such a big commotion? I It’s getting a bit unaccustomed.”

Xia Wei'an said: "If you don't want to go back to the banquet, Young Madam, you might as well go to the fifth floor. There is a coffee shop over there, and it's pretty quiet."

"If you have something to do, don't worry about me, just go about your own business." Leng Sa said sincerely.

Xia Wei'an shook his head, "No, my task today is to follow the young lady and protect her safety."

"..." I want you to go, how can I go for a walk if you don't go?

Seeing his serious face, Leng Sa sighed helplessly and said, "Didn't your elders tell you? I don't need your protection."

Xia Wei'an shook his head, "Mrs. Hui, no."

"You will follow me wherever I go?" Leng Sa asked.

Xia Wei'an nodded, Leng Sa nodded, "Okay, come with me."

Xia Wei'an followed Leng Sa all the way upstairs with some doubts. After reaching the fourth floor, he opened a room and walked in directly.

Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng's lounge is also on the fourth floor, but Xia Wei'an clearly remembers that it's not this one. He didn't even know how the young lady opened the door without the key, and it seemed that there was no effort at all.

After entering the room, Leng Sa walked out the window and looked down, frowning with some dissatisfaction, "Let's go to the third floor."

Xia Wei'an was about to answer yes, when he saw that Leng Sa had opened the window and was about to climb up the window, and hurriedly said, "Young Madam, what are you doing?"

Leng Sa looked back at him, "Go downstairs."

"..." The stairs of the hotel did not break.

Leng Sa signaled him to come to the window, pointed to a small balcony on the third floor below them and said: "See that place? Let's go there."

"What to do?"

Leng Sa said: "I have studied the map of this hotel. If Hong Tianci doesn't plan to poison Long Boyun to death at the birthday banquet and alarm too many guests and cause panic, the small garden on the first floor behind the hotel is the most convenient place to do it." I just found out that after the birthday banquet, Gang Leader Hong invited Long Boyun to negotiate with the head of the chamber of commerce there. Let's go there, it's the best place to watch." It's also the best place to snipe.

"There should be people in there." Xia Wei'an is not an ordinary person, so he can understand this. If there are not people from the Hong Gang, they must be from the Longmen. In short, it cannot be empty.

And, young lady, when did you inquire about these news?

Leng Sa nodded and said, "That's right, so we're going to grab the territory. Take advantage of the favorable position first, and then we can decide whether to simply watch the show or choose whose side to stand on."
