After the toilet incident at noon that day, under Liu Shangkun's intervention and the sentence that ended here, Xia Yun and Cui Ze'an can be said to have reached a tacit understanding with each other.

Cui Ze'an's temptation just now was also to confirm this matter!

Xia Yun will not go around publicizing the scandal of Cui Ze'an's incontinence, and Cui Ze'an will no longer use some unconventional violent means to deal with Xia Yun like he did in the toilet last time, let alone threaten Xia Yun's relatives and friends.

Otherwise, with the power of Cui Ze'an's family, he would be able to directly dispose of Xia Yun and even his family in a few minutes like last time, and on the other hand, the entire circle would be able to immediately know the pus that Cui Ze'an was scared of, and both would lose.

The so-called hemp rod beats the wolf, and both ends are afraid!

But both of them knew in their hearts that if they didn't use violent means, it didn't mean that Cui Ze'an would let Xia Yun go.

was seen by Xia Yun to be so embarrassed and embarrassed, with Cui Ze'an's domineering character, he could just forget it, that is the real sow can go up the tree.

After so many years in society, Xia Yun can still see at a glance the violent thinking mode of the second generation of red people like Cui Ze'an, who is simply against me, knowing that the other party will not simply let go of himself, and Xia Yun is too lazy to be false and wronged - why should he be so wronged himself, isn't the humiliation he suffered in the toilet at that time enough?

If you don't use violent means, then next, it is likely that you will attack several companies in his hands like Chen Lei did with Song Hui before!

Hearing Xia Yun ask, Wang Dong was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he spread his hands, "I'm not very good at these things, I think it's just some relevant departments taking a multi-pronged approach to trouble you or something...... But as long as you pay attention, don't be as careless as Song Hui, call me if there is anything, and in the short term, we can only see the move! ”

Xia Yun nodded silently. It's just that once again, there is a strong aggrieved and longing in my heart!

Power!

Status!

Relying on the care of others, after all, it is not as real and down-to-earth as what you have!

Since winning the billion jackpot, his life seems to be smooth, with Aunt Gu, Brother Zhao, Liu Caishen, Wang Xiaoer, and Jiang Peilan and other people, plus his billion assets, from machinery factories to security companies, from Nanyang Group to cosmetics companies, everything is going well, plus Wang Deyun, Zhao Tianhua and even Huo Qingguo who fell in their hands, he seems to be a character. It also breeds a lot of pride and complacency.

But this vague nouveau riche style of pride and complacency, in the toilet that day, he was slapped hard by Cui Ze'an's two bullets and a beating!

If Liu Shangkun hadn't happened to pass by and took this matter easily, he would have even been forced to eat his own vomit!

This huge contrast made Xia Yun finally calm down and take a serious look at himself!

After all, he is just a grassroots and has no corresponding strength. Relying on Aunt Gu's relationship, they may be able to scare those lower-level characters, but in the eyes of those high-ranking red second generations, they are just a blind jumping clown. Maybe for the sake of Aunt Gu and Li Zhongda's face, they don't care about themselves under normal circumstances, but if they really want to deal with themselves, they won't have too many scruples!

Even Liu Shangkun. For the sake of the second master's face, he helped himself, but Xia Yun could naturally see that he didn't take himself to heart. At most, it's just a little higher than passerby A, and I guess I can't even remember my name!

Better do it than wish it done!

……

Xia Yun didn't let others see the grievances in his heart, and the sentence he asked Wang Dong was just like a casual question, and he immediately changed the topic, and everyone didn't take it to heart.

Immediately, Xia Yun introduced Li Huai to Zheng Wei, Liao Xiaoming and Song Hui.

After listening to Xia Yun, the smiling young man in front of him was actually the son of the governor of a province, and the three of them were a little restrained, even the most Liao Xiaoming was no exception.

It is said that there are many dragons in the capital, and when I arrived in the capital, I realized that the Taoist officials were small, and they had a lot of backgrounds when they bumped into a person, and it really deserved its reputation!

Li Huai didn't put on the shelf of the governor's son, he greeted everyone with a smile, and laughed at himself a few words, like what compared to your Wang Dong, he is simply a scumbag, losing the face of the second generation of red and something, he has no bearing, but he quickly made Zheng Wei and them let go of their restraints, and they laughed.

After a while, there were still more than ten minutes from the opening time of the banquet written on the invitation, at six o'clock in the evening, but most of the guests had already come, and the originally empty courtyard gradually became full of people, and the whole table was full of thirty or so guests, greetings, greetings, talking and laughing, and it sounded into a one.

And in the obviously higher-grade side room, and even in the living room of the main house, you can also see the figure of Yu Yu through the window, and it is obvious that it is almost almost there.

Xia Yun's table was located in a corner near the entrance and exit of the courtyard, which was the worst and least noticeable position.

I don't know if it's because of this reason, until the banquet opens, no one sits at this table anymore, and there are only six of them who can sit at the table of ten people.

But that's fine, at least everyone is talking a lot more casually, and you don't have to worry about being uncomfortable with others.

Speaking of this location, there is also a benefit, that is, you can see all the guests coming in and out.

After chatting for a while, Wang Dong was idle and bored, acting as a temporary Jianghu Bai Xiaosheng, explaining to Xia Yun the identities and origins of some passing guests.

The people who came to attend Gu Ruotong and Gu Xiaolong's birthday banquet tonight were basically people from the Li and Gu families' own families or factions, and of course, there were some people from other families, such as the Liu family, the Wang family, the Xia family, the Cui family, the Zhao family, and so on.

Regardless of whether it is a line in politics or not, whether it is a fight to the death in private, harmony on the surface is still necessary, the Li and Gu families celebrate Gu Ruotong and Gu Xiaolong's birthday with such fanfare, let them recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors, and other families will naturally send people over to watch the ceremony and say goodbye.

These people, basically, were led directly from the corridor at the entrance of the courtyard to sit in the lobby or wing room, without passing through this courtyard.

And, the welcoming person. It's not that these young people are Yuan Shouzhuo, but they are replaced by middle-aged people of Li Zhongda, Gu Shaowen's generation, and even a few people who seem to be older, Xia Yun saw that Li Zhongda, Gu Xiaoying, and even Gu Shaowen and Gu Shaoyu all came forward to greet them in person, obviously they are real big shots!

What is the director of such and such a department, the general manager of such and such a central enterprise, the deputy minister of such and such a department, the minister of such and such a department, etc.

In addition to these big shots, some are much more casual, and groups of hip-hop and hip-hop come in together. It's all some young people of the younger generation who come to join in the fun or see the scene.

Like Cui Ze'an just now, and Li Huai, who was at the same table, all belong to this category of people.

Some of these people went to the wings, and some directly found a place to sit in the courtyard to add a bit of liveliness to the courtyard.

Of course, it was impossible for Wang Dong to know all the guests who came to the banquet, and he introduced them to Xia Yun. They are all some well-known characters, and as for some ordinary and low-level characters, he doesn't know a few.

Even so, though. It has also opened the eyes of Xia Yun, Zheng Wei, and Liao Xiaoming, looking at the characters that Xu Du usually only sees in TV news newspapers, appearing vividly in front of them, this feeling is for them grassroots. It's still quite shocking.

When the time reached six o'clock, the gate of the courtyard was closed, and Yuan Shouzhuo and a few other young people who were originally at the door greeted them. He also walked in, and sat down at an empty table in the courtyard, apparently no longer receiving guests.

It is also true that for a banquet like the Li Gu family, no matter who it is, it is generally not late.

Later, waiters dressed in white waiter costumes, like butterflies in flowers, carry plates back and forth between the tables.

It's time to serve!

……

To be honest, Gu Ruotong and Gu Xiaolong's birthday banquet was completely different from what Xia Yun imagined.

It's not that it's not lively enough, it's not that it's not high-grade enough, but it really has nothing to do with him at all.

It doesn't even have anything to do with all the guests in the courtyard.

Except at the beginning, Li Zhongda took Gu Ruotong and Gu Xiaolong to appear at the door of the hall and the courtyard from afar, and took the microphone to make a speech and thanks, and then the guests in the courtyard applauded politely, and then Li Zhongda took Gu Ruotong and Gu Xiaolong to pour a glass of liquid that I don't know if it was wine or a drink, and toasted to the guests in the courtyard, and then ......

And then there was none.

Gu Ruotong and Gu Xiaolong only had time to nod to Xia Yun in the corner of the courtyard from a distance, and they were taken back to the main hall by their father Li Zhongda.

Until the so-called birthday party came to an end, it never came out again.

Through the silhouette of the window, and the sudden uproar, Xia Yun could see that it was Li Zhongda with his sister and brother, table by table toast, from the hall to the wing, and then from the wingroom back to the hall.

But he never came out of the yard again.

Obviously, for the Li Gu family, the real guests tonight are those people in the house, these people in the courtyard, they are just an addition, and they don't need Li Zhongda to take care of them so politely.

The guests in the courtyard obviously also have that awareness, and they don't feel that there is anything to be neglected, they should eat and drink, laugh and scold, call friends, push cups and change lamps, and the liveliness is no less than that in the wings, or even better!

Only Xia Yun, holding a wine glass, looked at the figures toasting table by table in the window, a little stunned.

For the past twenty-three years, every year on Tongtong and Xiaolong's birthdays, he was the closest person to the two of them, and later, he handed it over to him, and even the birthday cake was made for them by himself......

By this year, he had become a completely inconsequential stranger, sitting in the most remote corner of the yard, watching his sister and brother surrounded by crowds from afar.

He became a complete outsider!

Xia Yun has never been so far away from Tongtong and Xiaolong like this year's birthday, and it seems that it has nothing to do with him.

The entire Gu family compound was bustling and noisy, but Xia Yun suddenly felt a little excited! (To be continued......)
