Chapter 120: The Banquet
Just like the scene where Mu Rong and Luo Longling met this eldest lady for the first time, Liu Zhiqing just saw Mu Rong holding the cat in her hand, and she consciously thought that Mu Rong and Luo Longling were abusing animals.
By the way, Mu Rong wondered at that time that the cat was in his hands, why did Liu Zhiqing's fire be directed at Luo Longling? Thinking like this, Mu Rong looked at Luo Longling, who was beside him.
Luo Longling is also from a famous family, so she naturally knows that she can't be rude at this birthday dinner, so she deliberately took Mu Rong to the exchange in the morning to buy a set of dresses to wear at the banquet. The purple-pink dress wraps Luo Longling's bumpy figure, which is elegant and atmospheric in color and will not steal the limelight from the protagonist of the banquet.
Luo Longling is a very aggressive type of beauty, with only light makeup on her face, but she is already brilliant enough. In comparison, although Mu Rong's facial features are good, he lacks such an amazing feeling when combined. However, it is precisely because Mu Rong's appearance is not aggressive that it is usually easy for people to have a sense of trust, and Luo Longling... Think about Liu Zhiqing putting the pot on her head without asking.
Luo Longling was very concerned about the situation in the base after awakening the ability, and knew that there would be a lot of powerful abilities at tonight's banquet, and she began to look forward to it last night. But Luo Longling, who was originally immersed in excitement, felt that a gaze had been cast on her for a long time, so she looked at Mu Rong who was sitting beside her.
"Xiaorong, is there anything on my face?" Luo Longling unconsciously touched her cheek, regretting in her heart that she didn't bring a small mirror with her to see what was going on on her face, so that Mu Rong could look at her with such a pitying look, could it be that someone with an ability scratched her face, or the kind that couldn't be cured.
Seeing Luo Longling's increasingly uneasy expression, Mu Rong immediately restrained his eyes, brushed Luo Longling's broken hair deliberately left in front of his forehead, and replied casually: "It's nothing, it's just that your hair was blown by the wind." ”
“... We were in the car. Luo Longling retorted in a low voice, Mu Rong's excuse was too insincere.
"Oh, Bai Yiwen, did you secretly use the ability just now?" Mu Rong's face was not red, his heart was not beating, and he threw the pot to Mu Rong.
Bai Yiwen finally knew what it was called - people were sitting in the car, and the pot came from behind.
Everyone didn't continue to ask any more, but let Mu Rong be so confused.
Although Mu Rong and the others rented in the outer city, it was a better location in the outer city, not too far from where Liu Lao lived, so their drive did not take too much time.
After arriving at the place where Liu Lao lived, everyone got out of the car and saw Lu Li as soon as they entered the door.
"Mr. Gu, Miss Mu, you are here." As soon as Lu Li saw Gu He'an, he immediately greeted him, this Mr. Gu has an ancestral secret recipe that can solve the mutated animal virus, he can't neglect this God of Wealth. Since he showed the medicine to Liu Lao after he came back two days ago, Liu Lao seemed to appreciate him even more.
"Mr. Lu, long time no see." Gu He'an greeted Lu Li politely.
Although the captain of the five-person mercenary team is Mu Rong, this transaction was facilitated by Gu He'an, and on the way back to C City, Mu Rong made it clear to Gu He'an, as long as it involves Liu Lao and the pill, Gu He'an will be responsible for himself, don't want to put the responsibility on her.
After some politeness, Lu Li naturally wanted to stay to receive other VIPs, and the five of them were invited to the dining room to sit down. The people sent by Lu Li yesterday said that tonight's banquet was just a small banquet, and there were not too many people, Mu Rong and they originally thought that it was just a modest statement, but now it seems that although the dinner party is definitely magnificent, the number of people participating is really small.
The so-called hall of the banquet is the dining room of Liu's hometown, I don't know if it has been specially rebuilt, but the dining room on the first floor has three tables for ten people to sit around, but it is more than enough. Looking at the dining room in front of them, Mu Rong and his party suddenly felt a little embarrassed, it seemed that there were only thirty people invited by Liu Lao, and there were five of them in their group, accounting for one-sixth of the audience, and they really had never seen the world.
"Mr. Gu, please sit down at will, and I'll go to receive the other guests first." The person who led the way brought the five people into the dining room to complete the task, and naturally there would be someone inside to entertain the group.
"Let's go inside." Mu Rong grabbed Luo Longling's hand and walked in together.
The three men in the back also walked in, fortunately, they were worried that their dress was too grand and added to the laughing stock, now it seems that although it is only a small banquet, everyone has taken great pains to dress themselves, compared to them, they are already very simple and low-key.
"Mr. Gu!" Huang Yuze's voice suddenly rang out.
Mu Rong looked in the direction of the voice, but saw an extremely funny scene. Huang Yuze's arms seemed to be wrapped around an octopus, tightly wrapped around a pair of white and tender arms, and the owner of those arms was even more eager to stick himself to Huang Yuze's body, but because of the public, she was still very "reserved" and did not do so. And Huang Yuze's previous serious doll face was already covered with redness, and he seemed to be very unable to adapt to this kind of intimate contact, and shouted for help Gu He'an.
Gu He'an obviously didn't expect to meet Huang Yuze here, thinking of his plan to deliberately sell two pills to two people with completely different identities, it looks really stupid now.
Mu Rong felt amused and looked at the woman who was pestering Huang Yuze, but found that it was Gao Lingyun who sneered at her and Gu He'an at the auction yesterday. This woman's name and background were still made up by Gu He'an as if he were cramming Gu Murong at noon today, on the grounds that Mu Rong, as the captain of the mercenary team, did not know that the power stratification of the C City base would have an adverse impact on the mercenary team.
Gao Lingyun is currently a young lady in City C, but it is not her father who is powerful, but her uncle. Gao Lingyun's father and uncle seem to have started from the underworld, and Gao Lingyun's father became a victim because of some conflicts of interest, which indirectly laid the foundation for her uncle's whitewashing. After Gao Lingyun's father died, her uncle, perhaps out of pity or guilt, took care of Gao Lingyun very much, and treated her with the same specifications as his own children, even after the end of the world.
Because my uncle's family had accumulated a lot of materials and had the ability to accumulate before, they quickly became famous in the C City base, and even Gao Lingyun enjoyed the life of Miss Qianjin's class.
