Chapter 162: Birthday Banquet

The Dragon Group is a secret group of the military, and those who can enter the group are the elite of the military. At the beginning, Mu Yuanhao also had the opportunity to enter the dragon group, but the route planned for him by the Mu family did not include the dragon group, so Mu Yuanhao could only give up this opportunity.

Hearing that Xu Zhengshan was a member of the Dragon Group, a disdainful smile flashed quickly at the corner of Huayang's mouth. Not to mention the members of the dragon group, even the members of the god group who are higher than the dragon group are also obedient in front of him, and they don't know what Xu Zhengshan is arrogant.

"But didn't the members of the Dragon Group say that it was difficult to ask for leave, why was Xu Zhengshan able to come back this time?" Ye Fatzi heard Su Tai's words, his eyes condensed slightly, and he asked with a little strangeness in his tone.

Corresponding to the fact that the Dragon Group still has so many resources and exercises, the Dragon Group has very strict rules, endless cultivation every day, and all kinds of regulations, and ordinary people can't see the members of the Dragon Group at all except for performing tasks.

"Maybe I'm taking a leave of absence to visit my family. Besides, if the Xu family really wants Xu Zhengshan to come back, then the dragon group will also have to give the Xu family this face. Su Tai shook his head and said he didn't know, but he casually said two possible speculations.

Although the Xu family's power in the army is not very large, they have a backstage in the capital, so they can naturally talk to the military bosses, just let the dragon group let Xu Zhengshan take a few days off, which is not a big deal.

Just when a few people were discussing, all the invited guests had already come, and seeing that the dried fruit cold dishes had come up, the people who had been in groups of three or five immediately returned to their positions, and it didn't take long for the old man Mu in Tang clothes to walk out.

"Thank you for coming over today to celebrate the old man's birthday, I have nothing to say here, this glass of wine is for everyone. Old Man Mu asked Mu Yide to pour himself a glass of wine, and stood in the center and said loudly to the people around him.

The people who can go to the main table today are all well-known real power figures in the capital, and when they saw Old Man Mu toasting, they also hurriedly raised their wine glasses in return. After all, the people who can be present today are all friends of the Mu family, of course, they have to hold the old man Lu.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, when it was time to officially present the birthday gift, the representative of the Ye family stood up first, and said to the old man with a smile: "Today is the seventieth birthday of Old Man Mu, and I wish you every year and today." ”

The birthday gift of the Ye family is a picture of the pine crane with a history of hundreds of years, this painting is not only a good omen, but also very elegant, the old man is very happy to see the painting, nodded again and again and said yes, and then let Uncle Qiang put it away.

The Liu family is followed by the Su family, the Li family... As long as there are famous families in the capital, they have given valuable gifts. This is still the old man's repeated request to keep a low profile to achieve what he is now, otherwise the threshold of the Mu family would have to be stepped on today.

After these outsiders have finished offering, it is the turn of the people of the Mu family, and the first birthday gift is Mu Yuanhai, who took out a palm-sized Maitreya Buddha and handed it to Old Man Mu and said: "I wish Grandpa a smile and a good life." ”

Although he said that he was his grandfather, Mu Yuanhai still put a lot of thought into it when he picked a birthday gift. It can't be too extravagant, it can't be too stingy, and it can't let Mu Yuanqing's people compare with the past, so this gift is quite difficult to choose.

After Mu Yuanhai finished offering, Mu Yuanqing and the others each stepped forward to offer gifts, but although the gifts were very valuable, they were a little worse than Mu Yuanhai's, and in the end, it was the turn of the wheel, and only Mu Weiwei and Huayang were left without gifts.

"You haven't told me before, there is such a show!" Huayang saw that the people in front of him had finished offering, his brows furrowed slightly, if he couldn't get a decent gift, it would be a shame.

"Do I need to tell you this? I'm ready. Mu Weiwei glanced at Huayang, then took out a palm-sized box and shook it in front of Huayang, obviously she had already prepared a congratulatory gift for the old man.

Seeing that Mu Yuanhao finished dedicating, Mu Weiwei pulled Huayang to the front of the old man. When the people around saw Huayang coming, a strange look flashed in their eyes, and everyone knew that Miss Weiwei, the most precious girl in the Mu family, was married to Huayang.

"Grandpa, this is the birthday gift that Huayang and I picked out for you, a complete ink ingot, you can use it when you write in the future. Mu Weiwei pulled Huayang to walk in front of Old Man Mu and opened the box with a smile.

Inside the box is a black ink ingot, which is printed with four seal characters of wealth and auspiciousness with gold powder, judging from the color, this ink ingot is indeed a bit old, if it is true, there is no need for Mu Yuanhai's jade Buddha to be cheap.

"I really didn't expect Hua Qiang that you still have some research on Gu Mo, we haven't heard of it before. This won't be picked out by Miss Mu herself, and then counted as the two of you, right?" Lin Wan, who was sitting in the distance, suddenly asked.

Although today is at Old Man Mu's birthday banquet, Lin Wan grasped the timing very well, and opening his mouth now will only make people feel that he is suspicious rather than deliberately provoking, at least he can be above board.

"I just know a little bit, when I came across this piece of ink with Weiwei in an antique store, I thought that my grandfather usually likes to write, and then I bought it, which can be regarded as a coincidence. Huayang replied calmly, as if he really bought this piece of ink.

Lin Wan looked at Huayang carefully for a while, nodded with a smile, originally he thought that as long as he asked, Huayang would definitely have nothing to say, and then it would be useless for Mu Weiwei to say anything, and the face he lost in the black swan would be recovered.

I didn't expect Huayang to answer this question and answer it so fluently. In this way, Lin Wan's question made Huayang show his face again. Although Lin Wan was unwilling, she couldn't ask anymore.

Old Man Mu accepted the gift with a smile, and then raised his glass and drank with everyone, and half an hour later, the banquet dispersed. Mu Weiwei was pulled into the side hall by Lin Mingge, and specially called Huayang together.

Coming to the side hall, Mu Weiwei took out a bottle of Romanée Conti from the wine cabinet, poured three glasses and asked Liu Mingge with a smile, "Mingge, you are in such a hurry to pull us over, is there anything important to say?"

Just now, Mu Yuanhai said that he wanted to go to the back to play golf with everyone, but Liu Mingge said that his stomach hurt a little and he wanted to take a break, so he pulled Mu Weiwei and Huayang over together, saying that they would let the two of them take care of themselves.

However, Mu Weiwei has known Liu Mingge for so long, and when she saw her eyes, she immediately understood that she was in trouble, so she agreed to follow Mu Weiwei's words, and after taking her to the side hall, she went straight to the point.

"Didn't Huayang say before, let me put Liu Songyan under my nose to observe? I followed his method, and sure enough, I found something. Liu Mingge took the wine glass and whispered to Mu Weiwei and Huayang.

Hearing Liu Mingge's words, Huayang's eyes lit up, when she was in the black swan, she gave Liu Mingge an idea, and asked her to help her find out the news by the way. Now it's paying off.

"What did you find?Did Liu Songyan start to attack your people?" Mu Weiwei sat next to Liu Mingge with a wine glass, looked at her and asked with concern. Liu Mingge is her good friend, and Mu Weiwei naturally cares about her affairs.

Huayang was very calm, he just sat quietly on the side, waiting for Mu Weiwei to ask. If Liu Mingge couldn't wait to ask as soon as he opened his mouth just now, then it would definitely make people wonder why he was so interested in Liu Songyan's news.

"No, after Liu Songyan was released by me, he specially recruited four people into the research room through the personnel department to form a special research team, and gathered all day long to study something. Liu Mingge said with some doubts.

Liu Songyan's behavior made Liu Mingge very puzzled, originally she thought that Liu Songyan was a chess piece for Liu Cheng's faction to share her rights, but she didn't expect Liu Songyan to form her own faction after entering the research room, and she didn't attack Liu Mingge's people at all.

"Then have you figured out what Liu Songyan is researching? Do they want to pass some patents to pinch the lifeblood of the research laboratory and Liu's Pharmaceutical in one fell swoop?" Mu Weiwei's eyes rolled and asked tentatively.

Liu's Pharmaceutical is now the biggest name among Liu Ming's singers, as long as she has this card, then she has the confidence to argue with the old people in the family. So she has always been very sensitive to Liu Chengyi's actions, but she didn't expect Liu Songyan's behavior to be so abnormal.

If Liu Songyan came to the research room, it was really just for research, and there was no messy mind, Liu Mingge would definitely not believe it. Because Liu Songyan was not the material for this industry in the first place, he must have ulterior motives when he went to the research room.

Liu Mingge pondered Mu Weiwei's words carefully, shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be possible, Liu's Pharmaceutical now has four drug patents in hand, and there are several more in research, and it is impossible for him to grasp the lifeblood of Liu's Pharmaceutical through patents." ”
