Even, in order to cooperate with the Yan family, he let his daughter get close to the Yan family and become best friends with the eldest lady of the Yan family, but although she is a best friend on the surface, only he knows in his heart that his daughter is just a dog next to the eldest lady of the Yan family, and even a dog that helps her bite people and help her do bad things.

But now, the Yan family is about to decline like himself, but Lao Xiao is not happy in his heart, because he used to rely on the Yan family in business, and now if the Yan family loses, his Xiao family will naturally not be happy.

"Mr. Gu, take me to thank your father, thank him for the old man who still remembers me, if I have time another day, I will definitely visit in person."

Originally, seeing that Mr. Xiao nodded to Gu Mingyuan, Yan Qingruo felt a little spicy, but it turned out that Mr. Xiao was really able to bear it, no, it should be really capable, and he actually called Mr. Gu, who was of the same generation as himself, "old man"?

"Then I'm looking forward to Uncle Xiao's arrival." Gu Mingyuan smiled, patted Mr. Xiao's shoulder, and then returned to his seat.

Yan Qingruo can understand it now, she has always heard that the domestic wine table culture is broad and profound, and now she knows that there are so many doors hidden in it, so that Yan Qingruo didn't react for a while.

At first, she thought that Gu Mingyuan went to respect Mr. Xiao's wine, but out of morality, because although his emotional intelligence was very low, he was kind in his heart and straightforward personality, so he couldn't see that Mr. Xiao was in an embarrassing predicament, so he wanted to take action to ease the atmosphere.

But until just now, Gu Mingyuan mentioned his father, and this old Mr. Xiao planned to visit the Gu family because he heard his father's two words of concern, and combined with Gu Mingyuan's demeanor and eyes just now, it was clear that he was secretly hooking up with Mr. Xiao, that's right, it's a tie!

Yan Qingruo now knew that she really underestimated Gu Mingyuan before, originally she thought that it would be difficult for a low-emotional businessman like him to survive in the shopping mall, but she didn't expect that he not only survived, but also made the Gu family's business bigger and bigger, and even had a tendency to replace his father as the first head of the Gu family. Now she knows how powerful Gu Mingyuan is, it turns out that his low EQ is intermittent, and his business sense of smell is beyond the reach of many people here, especially when he smells business opportunities, his EQ will increase by itself, so high that Yan Qingruo is dumbfounded.

"There is no current offspring, it is really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, come to Uncle Yan, I will toast you." At this time, Yan Zhengqing, who had been sitting next to Yan Qingruo and had been silent, suddenly raised his wine glass to Gu Mingyuan, and it was rare to put down the shelf of the elders and take the initiative to toast him.

No matter what, this Yan Zhengqing is also the father of Gu Mingyuan's dream lover, he was really flattered, and he was so frightened that he immediately bounced up from his seat, and his hand that raised the wine glass trembled a little.

"That Uncle Yan, you are really late in life, I should give you a toast, how can you take the initiative to toast me?"

Saying that, Gu Mingyuan walked down directly from his position, walked around a big circle to Yan Zhengqing's side, and then raised his wine glass and said to Yan Zhengqing: "Uncle Yan, although there is not much intersection between our two families in business, I have long admired your name. ”

Gu Mingyuan and Yan Zhengqing seemed to get acquainted with each other very quickly, Yan Qingruo had to admire, sure enough, how easy it was to make friends at the wine table.

At this time, Chu Mu and the father and daughter of the Li family came out together, and when Li Aili came out, she had a smug glow on her face, while Li Jianhao looked confident.

Seeing this posture, Yan Zhengqing's face, which had just drunk with Gu Mingyuan, immediately turned pale.

"How's your talk?"

Yan Qingruo heard Mrs. Li ask Li Jianhao in a whisper, but Li Jianhao didn't answer her, just looked at her with disgust and said, "Women, what do you care?" ”

Then Mrs. Li had no choice but to turn her face away, perhaps to alleviate the embarrassment, and stretched out her chopsticks to Li Jianhao to clip a dish with chopsticks and put it in Li Jianhao's bowl.

Hehe, the emotional Li family is actually a straight man at the helm? Yan Qingruo thought to herself, and felt that it made sense that Li Jianhao was a straight man, after all, the Li family was known as black and white, if the men of the Li family didn't have a little manhood, how could they be big brothers? Even Li Aili usually looks like a ruffian, looking at the entire Li family, it seems that only this Mrs. Li seems to be more knowledgeable.

"Mr. Chu, I don't know if I can talk to you alone?" Yan Zhengqing, who couldn't hold his breath, wiped the sweat from the corners of his forehead, stretched his head past Yan Qingruo, and cast a pleading glance at Chu Mu.

Chu Mu's eyes drifted over Yan Qingruo's face as if he were nothing, and then looked at Yan Zheng and nodded lightly and said, "Well, you can." ”

"Yo, Mr. Yan, it's really an ant on a hot pot, didn't you see that Mr. Chu had just finished chatting with my father, and he was having a dry mouth and wanted to drink a bowl of soup?"

Li Aili, who was serving Chu Mu soup, took a bowl of soup in her hand and approached Chu Mu, but her eyes were staring at Yan Zhengqing viciously, and her words were full of sarcasm.

"That'...... Don't worry, Mr. Chu, you drink soup first, rest and let's talk. Yan Zhengqing had no choice but to soften his tone for the time being, after all, what Li Aili said made some sense, but he was too impatient. Thinking about it, he wiped his forehead with the handkerchief in front of him.

Chu Mu glanced at the chicken soup in front of him, and a trace of cold light appeared in his eyes, according to Yan Qingruo's understanding of Chu Mu. What he hates the most is probably that someone will interfere with his decision, and now, Li Ali has clearly crossed the line.

Chu Mu's brows frowned slightly, and after a moment, he took the chicken soup that Li Aili had been holding in his hand, with an expectant look in his eyes, waiting for him to pick up, and just as Li Aili was smiling, Chu Mu went to put the chicken soup that Li Aili gave him directly in front of Yan Qingruo in the envious eyes of everyone.

"Ruoruo, you helped me drink."

Immediately, in Yan Qingruo's shocked gaze, he raised his head and said to Yan Zhengqing, "Mr. Yan, please." ”

Yan Zhengqing only felt flattered, he never thought that Chu Mu would directly dial Li Aili's face in front of everyone, especially the Li family, and carry out such a direct ambiguous behavior towards his daughter, in Yan Zhengqing's eyes, all of Chu Mu's actions are not simple actions based on mood, but have a certain deep meaning, he thinks that this is a hint that the Chu family wants to give the Yan family a chance.

"Please, please, Mr. Chu, please." Yan Zhengqing stood up flattered, and hurriedly bowed his head to Chu Mu and invited him, when Chu Mu straightened his clothes and walked in front, Yan Zhengqing turned around and said to Yan Qingruo proudly: "Qingruo, remember to drink the soup that Mr. Chu gave you, don't let down the hard work of your Uncle Li's family." ”

After Yan Zhengqing finished speaking, he glanced contemptuously at Li Jianhao, who was sitting precariously, before turning around and chasing Chu Mu away.

Yan Qingruo here fell into a boundless embarrassing atmosphere for a while, she never expected that Chu Mu would actually ...... Will give her this damn chicken soup. She had already drunk two big bowls before, not to mention, the key was that now Li Aili's vision was enough to kill her, and this damn delicious chicken soup suddenly became arsenic/cream that made Yan Qingruo sit still, and she didn't know how to be good.

Alas, Chu Mu, don't you know that it's illegal to ask someone to drink arsenic/frost casually? Yan Qingruo muttered quietly in her heart.

"The relationship between Miss Yan and Mr. Chu is really good, and they are really envious of the people in the entire Dajiang City." Mrs. Xiao, who was sitting diagonally opposite, giggled.

Yan Qingruo stared at that Mrs. Xiao fiercely, not thinking that the lesson she had just given her was not enough to make her close that mean mouth, and now that she saw the vacancy, she hurriedly came to sow discord.

However, her provocation this time was not endured by everyone like last time, she was a fire primer, and she happened to meet Li Ailie, a barrel of explosives that was ready to explode at any time, so the scene on the wine table became a little uncontrollable for a while.

"Hmph, I think it's because some people don't have the shame to make up for others, the whole family is like this, it's disgusting." Li Aili said coldly on the side.

At this time, there was a vacant seat between Yan Qingruo and Li Aili after Chu Mu left, and Yan Qingruo could smell the smell of gunpowder on her body and the vicious gaze in her eyes through the air.

Even though Li Aili's words just now seemed very vicious, Yan Qingruo chose not to bother with her, according to Li Aili's temper, Yan Qingruo didn't want to go head-to-head with this brainless but extremely impulsive person, because she could predict the result of the confrontation, which would be the headline of Jiang Cheng tomorrow:

The daughters of the Li family and the Yan family in Jiangcheng fought for the sake of men in the Chamber of Commerce.

But if Yan Qing didn't talk, it didn't mean that no one else talked, I saw that Mrs. Xiao continued to cover her mouth and smile, and then leaned forward with extremely curious eyes and said, "I don't know who Miss Li is talking about, I didn't expect that there would be such a character in our Jiangcheng, it's really interesting." ”

"Who else could it be? Who should know in their own hearts. Li Aili's eyes deliberately swept over Yan Qingruo's body, and she snorted coldly, her tone full of uncontrollable contempt.

"Alas, this is not necessarily, people who have done bad things in these years don't think they are bad people, especially those shameless and unscrupulous people, and they even claim that they are for love and freedom."

Li Aili's fists were clenched tightly in anger by Mrs. Xiao's few words, and she almost gritted her teeth and said, "Then let's see if Heaven can tolerate her!" ”
