Before dawn the next day, the entire Huo family began to be lively.

The splendid villa building is full of lights, bright red lanterns are hung, and the walls are covered with the word "longevity", and the Huo family is even more busy, people with high status are busy entertaining guests, and those with low status are busy dealing with chores, bustling, so noisy that Li Changjing can't even sleep well.

Near noon, Liu Qingtan came to him and said that the banquet would start at about three o'clock in the afternoon, do you want to go together?

Li Changjing thought about it and felt that this kind of thing should not be missed, Mrs. Huo's eightieth birthday, there must be a lot of big people who came to congratulate her, and it is also a good thing to go not only to eat, but also to increase knowledge.

Seeing that Li Changjing agreed, Liu Qingtan immediately went to prepare a suit for him, saying that it was rented, and he could return it after the banquet, so Li Changjing was willing to wear it.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Liu Qingtan took Li Changjing to Acacia Residence, Miss Huo Qingrou Huo had already changed into a purple long-sleeved dress, which cleverly covered all the rashes on her body, she was extremely beautiful, after painting light makeup, and then dyed Lancôme pink lipstick, she looked weak and a little charming, indescribably moving.

Liu Qingtan also changed into a rare banquet cheongsam, white, just above the knee, stepping on the same milk-white high heels underneath, revealing only a greasy white calf that seemed to be able to pinch out the water, standing with Miss Huo, it was actually equal, like two sisters with great good looks.

Fortunately, Li Changjing is not bad, he is a little thinner, but he is no longer lame, he wears a suit, and then Liu Qingtan helps blow out a Korean-style three-seven-point broken hair, and when he laughs, he shows his dusty snow-white teeth, except for the sunshine or sunshine, compared with any handsome guy, he is not lagging behind.

The venue of the banquet was a reception hall, which was very spacious, and dozens of wine tables covered with gold-rimmed satin were already filled with a wide variety of dishes.

There were a lot of people who came to congratulate, I am afraid that there are no less than two hundred, men, women and children, all of them are uniformly dressed, which is obviously the reason why they have heard of Mrs. Huo's quirks.

Li Changjing silently followed behind Huo Qingrou, ignoring the things around him, the biggest reason why he came here was to eat, as for seeing any big people, it was just an excuse to persuade himself.

However, Huo Qingrou was unexpectedly popular, and there were a lot of eyes cast at her along the way, and people kept coming up to say hello during the period, Huo Qingrou responded with a smile one by one, treating people without leakage, neither enthusiastic nor cold, and the proportions were just right, if he hadn't learned etiquette, he had often been in and out of such occasions before, and it was already commonplace.

After everyone sat down, looking at it, the entire hall was basically full of people, the Huo family should not be particular about the position, everyone was seated according to the first come, first served, such as the Xu family where Xu Huaitian was, because they came in the latest, so they sat at the last table, but Li Changjing and Huo Qingrou were together, stained with light, and sat in the front row.

Not long after, there was a young woman wearing a red cheongsam, who walked up to the front desk and recited a large number of lines in a soft and sweet voice.

At the same table as Li Changjing, in addition to Huo Qingrou and Liu Qingtan, there were four or five people, two of whom were boys of the same age as Li Changjing, and they were also called Huo Qingrou's sister, who should be the Huo family of the same generation as her.

After a while, Huo Qingrou suddenly left her seat without warning, and Li Changjing thought she was going to the toilet, but she didn't care.

It wasn't until about five o'clock in the afternoon that the emcee on the stage shouted with a microphone: "The auspicious time has arrived, and I invite Mrs. Huo, the birthday star, to take a seat." ”

Soon a white-haired old man appeared outside the door, supported by a man and a woman, Li Changjing knew both, it was the second master Huo who had a two-sided relationship, and Huo Qingrou, who had just left his seat.

Li Changjing looked at the old man carefully, thinking that this was Mrs. Huo, looking at the poor body, even if she was supported by someone, she was still faltering, and her face was a little sickly pale with wrinkles and age spots, but her expression was very kind, and she smiled friendly to everyone.

After Mrs. Huo came to the front table, the birthday banquet officially began, and the surroundings immediately became lively, the guests came forward to congratulate and send the gifts they had prepared.

Li Changjing didn't understand the rules of these rich people, and was thinking about whether to give a gift, Liu Qingtan stopped him and said: "We are with Miss, she will prepare the gift, let's just stay honest." ”

Li Changjing is also happy like this, he doesn't have to do anything, just wait for the meal to start, isn't it beautiful.

Mrs. Huo was already old, just sitting on the chair, all foreign affairs were handed over to Huo Qingrou and that Huo Erye, after the guests gave gifts, the meal began, Li Changjing was already hungry, so he was not polite, and feasted.

Although Liu Qingtan is only Huo Qingrou's secretary, there are also a lot of people who know her, many young sons and brothers come to chat with her, or leave contact information, or invite her to eat another day, Liu Qingtan is busy coping, she can't eat at all, she is inevitably a little impatient, and in the end, her attitude gradually colds, so the number of people looking for her begins to decrease.

I have to say that Mrs. Huo's cleanliness habit has reached a very serious level, not only the dishes and chopsticks used need to be washed with boiling water, but even Huo Qingrou and Huo Erye, who helped her pick up vegetables, also had to wear white gloves.

Li Changjing was a little bored, he didn't know anyone here, and Liu Qingtan, the only one who could talk, was also pestered by a bunch of men, so he made up his mind and slipped away after eating, anyway, he didn't have the heart to deal with these rich people, so he just went back to sleep.

However, it backfired, and only halfway through the meal, Li Changjing keenly noticed that on the table next door, there were a few eyes that often came here, he looked closely, and couldn't help but be taken aback, it was actually the four boys he met in the reception room that day, one of them still had gauze wrapped around his forehead, staring at him with extremely resentful eyes.

Li Changjing secretly said badly, hurriedly don't look over, pretending to concentrate on eating, but in less than two minutes, two people were already walking towards him, holding a glass of wine in their hands, and after coming to the side, he smiled and said: "This friend, I see that you are a little familiar, how about having a glass of wine together?" ”

Li Changjing said in his heart to drink your uncle's drink, took a sip of food, and sneered: "I'm sorry, I don't know how to drink." ”

The two sons immediately turned gloomy, raised their voices and said, "No, on Mrs. Huo's birthday, friend, you don't give face?" ”

Li Changjing was secretly annoyed for a while, and said that it was Mrs. Huo's birthday, giving you a face? But many people around him have already turned their eyes over, looking like watching a play, Li Changjing was worried about making things bigger, so he still poured a glass of wine, clinked glasses with those two people, and was bored.

Li Changjing didn't know how to drink at all, not to mention that this glass was still white wine, the spicy liquid poured into his throat, he almost threw up, he finally couldn't hold back, his face was already red to his neck, he was dizzy, and his steps were a little vain.

The two of them smiled maliciously and introduced themselves: "Friend, we are the Wang family, my name is Wang Kang, his name is Wang Qing, I see that you are quite right, let's go over there and sit down?" Tonight is a happy day, how about not having two more drinks. ”

"My name is Li Changjing." Li Changjing snorted and said, "I can't drink enough, so I won't drink it, I'm sorry." ”

The two people glanced at each other and laughed, one of them handed over a glass of wine and said with a smile: "It's okay, since Brother Li doesn't give face, then we won't be reluctant, but this last glass of wine is a farewell wine, and I hope Brother Li will not shirk it." ”

Li Changjing just wanted to send these two people away as soon as possible, and he didn't think much about it, he took the glass of wine and drank it, who knew that after the wine entered his mouth, he found that his throat was itchy, as if something was crawling, and then a strong smell rushed straight to his nose, and he realized that the glass of wine was put into a worm, and a strong feeling of nausea began to rise from the bottom of his heart, and his stomach turned over the river, and he vomited with a bang.

The sudden change caught everyone by surprise.

So many people around were eating with relish, but suddenly they saw someone vomiting, and the green, yellow, and white filth on the ground exuded a sour smell, which made everyone lose their appetite.

The most serious thing is that Mrs. Huo was sitting not far from the side, the scene of Li Changjing vomiting happened to be seen by her, Mrs. Huo sighed, her eyes widened, and she looked at the young man who was at a loss, her old face was pale, she looked surprised and incredulous, she fell on the chair weakly, stretched out her finger and pointed at Li Changjing, and was speechless for a long time.

All the people of the Huo family were frightened, after a commotion, five or six people immediately came up to surround Li Changjing, intending to catch him as soon as possible, and a few nannies were busy cleaning up the vomit on the ground, and Mrs. Huo over there, I don't know if she had a heart attack, her face was already a little blue, Huo Qingrou was anxiously pinching her, Huo Erye was calling for an ambulance on the surface, but from time to time he would look at Li Changjing, with a meaningful face.

A good banquet turned into a pot of porridge in an instant.

Someone next to him gloated: "Who is this kid from?" Do you dare to vomit in front of Mrs. Huo and look for death? ”

"Mrs. Huo has held a birthday banquet for twenty years, and no one dares to do this, he is really lucky to have won the jackpot."

There are also some people who are expressing their sympathy and sighing: "Alas, young people just have no scruples, can't they hold back if they want to vomit?" Even if you can't help it, you should run to a hidden place to vomit, it's too far, and it's okay under the table! ”

"I don't know what happened to Mrs. Huo, she's so old, don't do anything."

The surrounding guests exchanged their heads and ears, making Li Changjing's heart sink to the bottom. At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind:

It's dead.
