The housekeeper helped Old Man Mu to sit down in his position, and then turned to leave, the first row is the position of the representatives of each group arranged, as well as the people who want to speak on the stage, such as Qiao Airuo and others, so the entourage brought by the bigwigs here can only sit at the back of the venue.

"Don't stand, sit down." Old Man Mu saw that Qiao Airuo and the others were still standing, and greeted with a smile.

They also don't squirm and sit back in their places.

As soon as Fan Vera was about to sit down, Xiao Lian came over and said a few words in her ear, and then said sorry to a few of them and left the table temporarily.

Old Man Mu belongs to the person with the highest qualifications and status among all the guests tonight, so his seat is in the middle of the opposite side of the stage, and Ji Zhiyi, as the heir of the Ji Group, is on the right hand side of Old Man Mu, and then to the right is Qiao Airuo and Fan Vera's seats.

On the other side, there are representatives of other groups, some of whom have already come, and Old Man Mu is greeting everywhere he goes.

Old Man Mu looked at Qiao Airuo, whether it was her demeanor or clothes, she was generous and decent in all aspects, and remembered her vigorous and resolute methods in the mall, and she really liked it in her heart, but it was a pity, if only Mu Ling'er was half as good as her.

I don't know why, every time he sees her, he always has a familiar feeling, but it's a pity that such a good child belongs to someone else's family.

"Mr. Qiao, we meet again." Old Man Mu said with a smile.

Old Man Mu was so polite, which made Qiao Airuo a little embarrassed, and she responded with a smile: "Old Mr. Mu, you still call me Ai Ruo." ”

"It's fine, Aarho." Old Man Mu is as kind as flowing: "Then don't see outside, follow this kid Zhiyi, call me Grandpa Mu." ”

"Okay, Grandpa Mu." Qiao Airuo didn't prevaricate much, although she felt a little strange when she saw Old Man Mu for the first time, but she still liked this kind old man very much.

Old Man Mu smiled and narrowed his eyebrows: "How is your grandfather, Mr. Xia, doing recently?" ”

The whole world knows that Qiao Airuo is the granddaughter of Mr. Xia.

"It's good, my grandfather has been exercising diligently recently, and I feel a lot more energetic than before." Qiao Airuo replied that she had gone to Gangcheng to have dinner with Xia Daoyuan two days ago, and she asked again, "Does Grandpa Mu know my grandfather?" ”

Old Man Mu nodded: "Old Mr. Xia's prestige is outside, how can I not know?" It's just that Old Man Xia's personality is more quiet, so I haven't had a chance to get to know him. ”

But in fact, because the Mu family's background is still involved in the underworld, there are some gray area transactions, Xia Daoyuan is a representative of the literati, he doesn't like businessmen who are full of copper smell and have no sense of social responsibility, and he doesn't like underworld people who make ill-gotten gains.

Therefore, Old Man Mu can be said to have no chance to get acquainted with Xia Daoyuan at all, because Xia Daoyuan doesn't like it.

Qiao Airuo didn't know this, but she knew that her grandfather really didn't like to make new friends very much, especially when he suddenly changed in those years, his personality became more withdrawn, so it was normal for Old Man Mu not to know him, but now Old Man Xia's personality is becoming more and more cheerful, like a child, and he doesn't exclude socializing, she smiled and said: "If I have the opportunity, I can introduce you to each other." ”

"Hahahaha, that relationship is good, your grandfather is really blessed, having such an excellent granddaughter as you." Old Man Mu smiled very happily, and the smile on his face was completely a love for a junior.

"Grandpa Mu, I'm going to be embarrassed if you say that again." Jo Airuo said a little embarrassed.

"That's it, Grandpa Mu, look at our Sister Qiaoqiao's face is going to be red." Ji Zhiyi was caught in the middle and answered teasingly.

Old Man Mu laughed heartily, as if he was unhappy and counted Ji Zhiyi: "You are naughty." ”

When Mu Ling'er followed Mu Heng over with a well-behaved face, she saw such a picture, Qiao Airuo and Old Man Mu were chatting very happily, and people who didn't know thought that the two of them were their own ancestors and grandchildren.

It was the first time she had seen Jo Airo in person, and sure enough, as she thought, she didn't like this woman.

"What's wrong, Ling'er?" Jiang Yun saw Mu Ling'er stop and asked.

Mu Heng also turned his head to look at her, and the concern in his eyes was not false at all. Seeing this, the waiter who led the way on the side also waited quietly with his hands down.

Mu Ling'er came back to her senses, shook her head, and said with a smile: "It's okay, my foot hurt a little just now." ”

"Then hurry up and sit down." Jiang Yun took her hand and took her away, and Mu Heng saw that she was really fine, so he motioned to the waiter to continue to lead the way.

Their position was in the back row of Old Man Mu, just Mu Heng was sitting behind Old Man Mu, Jiang Yun was sitting behind Ji Zhiyi, and Mu Ling'er was sitting behind Qiao Airuo.

"Dad." Mu Heng sat down and greeted Old Man Mu.

Old Man Mu was still chatting with Qiao Airuo and Ji Zhiyi, when he heard the voice, he turned around and responded to Mu Heng: "Well, sit down quickly when you come in." ”

"Okay Dad." Mu Heng said and was about to sit down, but when he saw Qiao Airuo who turned his head to look, his pupils contracted suddenly, and he was stunned in place.

How could this young woman feel so familiar, and let him panic for no reason.

Qiao Airuo knew that this was the current president of the Mu Group, Mu Heng, that is, the son of the old man Mu, smiled, but it was a little strange to see him staring at himself, but he didn't show half a point on his face, stood up, faced him, and stretched out his hand generously: "Hello Mr. Mu, I am Qiao Airuo of QK Group." ”

Jiang Yun found out that her husband was abnormal, a little strange, and hurriedly reached out and pulled his clothes behind his back, Mu Heng reacted and grabbed her hand: "Hello Mr. Qiao." ”

With an impeccable smile, Qiao Airuo let go of her hand after two seconds, and then said with a smile: "This is Mrs. Mu and Miss Mu?" ”

"Yes, hello Joe." After all, Jiang Yun was from a famous family, and he had seen a lot of the world, so he smiled generously, and then stretched out his hand and shook hands with Qiao Airuo.

They had actually seen Qiao Airuo at Old Madam Su's banquet before, but Qiao Airuo hadn't seen them, and it was the first time that they had such close contact.

Jiang Yun smiled and said, "Mr. Qiao is really young and promising." ”

"Thank you, Mrs. Mu, for the compliment, Ai Ruo is ashamed." Although this is a fact, Jiang Yun's original intention is just flattery, if Qiao Ai can't hear this, I'm afraid that he has been blind for so many years of experience in the shopping mall.

She smiled and asked, "I don't know which beauty salon Mrs. Mu frequents?" This skin is really well maintained. ”

When Qiao Airuo said this, the expression on her face was very sincere, making people feel that she was not flattering at all, but sincere.

Jiang Yun really smiled and said, "Hahaha, Mr. Qiao, you are really good at talking." ”

The lights in the venue suddenly dimmed, Qiao Airuo let go of Jiang Yun's hand, and politely motioned for them to sit down first with his palm upward: "It seems that it is about to start, let's all sit down first." ”

She smiled and nodded at Mu Ling'er, which was considered a greeting, Mu Ling'er gave her a roll of her eyes, and then took the lead in sitting down in her place.

Old Man Mu kept looking at a few of them, how could he not see Mu Ling'er's reaction just now? His displeased brow furrowed slightly.

Seeing this, Jiang Yun was a little embarrassed, and when he saw Old Man Mu's reaction, he became even more nervous, and immediately smiled and said, "Okay, let's all sit down." ”

Although Qiao Airuo didn't know where Mu Linger's hostility came from, how could she be affected by such a trivial matter? She smiled and sat back in her place.

Ji Zhiyi leaned into her ear and whispered, "Don't pay attention to her, this Mu Ling'er has been spoiled since she was a child, and she is very ignorant." ”

"I don't mind, I just feel like this little girl is hostile to me." Qiao Airuo really didn't mind, she had seen a lot of cold faces, how could she be with a little girl?

"That's it......" Ji Zhiyi touched his chin and thought about it: "I guess she's jealous of your beauty." He babbled, seemingly the conclusion of a reasonable analysis.

Qiao Airuo's hand pushed him, and he smiled a little helplessly: "It's not serious." ”

Ji Zhiyi spread his hands, he felt that his analysis was reasonable.

Jiang Yun took Mu Ling'er's hand here and whispered, "What's the matter with you, why did you suddenly lose your temper just now, didn't you see your grandfather's brows furrowed?" ”

Mu Ling'er looked at Qiao Airuo's back, her eyes seemed to be quenched with poison, and she didn't answer.

"You restrain yourself and be careful not to expose your emotions." Jiang Yun reminded her.

"Got it." Mu Linger said unwillingly.

Jiang Yun put his mind at ease, turned his head but found that Mu Heng's expression was not quite right, leaned over and asked him, "Husband, what's wrong with you?" ”

Mu Heng came back to his senses and responded: "It's nothing, I'm thinking about the contract I just told Mr. Wang." ”

"Oh." Jiang Yun nodded, then turned his head and looked back at the stage, the host had already come up to warm up, and tonight's 40th anniversary party officially began.

Qiao Airuo's speech was behind Chairman Ji, and not long after the host came to the stage, he was called away by the assistant next to Chairman Ji.

When Fan Vera returned to her seat, Qiao Airuo was no longer visible, and she asked Ji Zhiyi, "Where is our Qiaoqiao?" ”

"I've gone backstage, and when my old man finishes speaking, I'll go to Sister Qiaoqiao to speak." Ji Zhiyi replied.

Fan Vera nodded, then leaned her arm on the armrest, and said with a smile: "Yo, I didn't expect our season candidates to know the process so well?" ”

"I ......" Ji Zhiyi was speechless for a while, when Jack sent him the process of this event, he was very arrogant and said that he wouldn't read it, but after Jack left, he still watched it again.

At the same time, he is doing psychological construction in his heart, and Ji's Group also has a part of his mother's strength, he just doesn't want to see his mother's hard work in vain.
