Chapter 955: The Calm Before the Storm

For a week or two, City C showed an extraordinary calm. Everything seems so normal, but in this eventful season, too normal is more and more suspicious.

In this tranquil atmosphere, the tower ushered in an anniversary worth celebrating. Generally speaking, Jiang Jueli doesn't like to have such a grand anniversary celebration, although just the two names of Chenlou and Jiang Jueli have nothing to do with being low-key. But Jiang Jueli still hates this kind of scene where she needs to fake laughter with others.

But this year, unlike in the past, City C ushered in a lot of uninvited guests. As the most powerful local enterprise, Chenlou still needs to have some leading demeanor, otherwise it is easy to be suspicious.

Even if Jiang Jueli himself didn't care about this, the directors of Chenlou still couldn't bear to be considered to have lost their former majesty.

After careful planning, the anniversary celebration of Chenlou was very grand. Even Shen Shi sighed that he had been married to Jiang Jueli for many years, and he had never had such a grand scene.

Of course, the public anniversary celebration in the hotel is just to satisfy the curiosity of the public, and also to let the directors of the tower satisfy their sense of pride in front of ordinary people. But what can really show Jiang Jueli's strength is the small private banquet held in another villa under his own name.

Naturally, other people from Chenlou came to Zhang Luo for the anniversary, but for the private banquet, the protagonists were Jiang Jueli and Shen Shi.

When everyone stepped into the villa and saw all kinds of furnishings made of dazzling crystals, the guests couldn't help but sigh that the Jiang family is the Jiang family. Either you don't make a move, and as soon as you make a move, who else can compare to this magnanimous strength.

"Mr. Jiang, congratulations, Chenlou can have today's grand occasion, it is really beyond my reach." Some seniors not only praised them sincerely, but also said to Jiang Jueli with some regretful unconvincing. Although they sincerely admired Jiang Jueli's methods in the shopping mall for so many years, in their private hearts, they also felt that if Jiang Jueli was not lucky, he probably would not have achieved what he is today.

"I also want to thank you for your support to our Jue Li." Seeing that Jiang Jueli, who was holding on to the side, did not speak, without the slightest intention of being humble, Shen Shi resolved the embarrassment between the two sides in a timely manner.

When Jiang Jueli heard this, he just smiled slightly, and did not mean to echo it. He knew what these people were thinking, and it was not a blessing to him. But Jiang Jueli doesn't care at all, what does he want to do, does he still need to see if others care?

"Mr. Jiang is not only smooth sailing in his career, but even the insiders are so discerning, which really makes us admire and admire!" The man held his glass and praised sincerely. They all knew that Shen Shi was not from the shopping mall, but with such an eyesight, he must have an extraordinary ability to make a resolute person like Jiang Jueli turn into a soft finger.

Hearing this, Jiang Jueli's face softened a little. Others praised him, and in his opinion, he either wanted to pat himself on the back for cooperation, or waited for the next sentence to see his own joke. But when others praise Shen Shi, usually speaking, Jiang Jueli thinks that the other party is sincerely praising Shen Shi. Jiang Jueli looked at Shen Shi with soft eyes, as if all the people present were gone, and there were only the two of them in this space.

Shen Shi saw Jiang Jueli looking at him with such single-minded and silent affectionate eyes, he was a little ashamed, pinched his arm, and whispered: "It's all here!" But Shen Shi's strength was not great, Jiang Jueli didn't feel the pain at all, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became deeper and deeper.

This banquet, of course, includes Su Mo and his wife, Yuan Linkai and his wife, and Liu Chengjun and his wife. Su Mo, as the general manager of Xu's family, naturally received a lot of attention. Every time he saw other men, looking at Su Mo with coveted eyes, Tony was very crazy.

Shen Shi felt that Tony, who was so helpless and had no way to swallow his anger, was really cute and tight, and couldn't help laughing.

"Why, I can't see other people admiring Xiao Mo like this. Xiao Mo was originally a very good person, and it is normal for her to be appreciated. Shen Shi teased Tony, watching Tony's face get darker and darker, the more he wanted to tease him.

When a man, holding a glass of wine, wanted to come to Su Mo to salute him, Tony's endurance was at its limit. He rushed to Su Mo's side with a strong stride, hugged Su Mo's waist with a smile, and glanced at the man's surprised eyes.

"Wife, the child is hungry, you should go back to feeding." Tony raised his eyebrows at the man who hadn't come back to his senses with a smug look, and left the scene with his arms around Su Mo's waist.

What kind of trouble will happen when the two go home, Shen Shi is not very sure. But eating this kind of dry vinegar on this occasion, Shen Shi knew that Su Mo would definitely not be able to spare Tony when he went back. But from another aspect, it can also be seen that in Tony's eyes, Su Mo is indeed a shining woman. It is precisely because he knows Su Mo's charm that Tony is so anxious. Shen Shi secretly glanced at Jiang Jueli, in Jiang Jueli's eyes, he was the same, was he a person with a thousand rays?

Jiang Jueli noticed that Shen Shi was staring at him sideways in a daze, and from her eyes, Jiang Jueli could know what she was thinking. Jiang Jueli bowed down, attached to Shen Shi's ear, and whispered in a tone that only the two of them could hear: "In my heart, you will always be the most beautiful and charming!" ”

Before the words were finished, Shen Shi's face turned red.

Not far away, looking at Jiang Jueli and Shen Shi's appearance, Xu Zhong still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. On such an occasion, of course Jiang Jueli would not invite herself. But Jiang Jueli didn't invite, it didn't mean that he couldn't come in. He just wanted to see what kind of situation Chenlou was in recently, and wanted to see how Jiang Jueli, who had always been unobtrusive, held a high-profile anniversary celebration and private banquet.

As soon as he walked into this banquet, Xu Zhong saw a very intimate scene between Shen Shi and Jiang Jueli. In front of everyone, they are so affectionate, you can imagine how sweet the life of the two is in private. Thinking of himself, at this time, he was still alone, and compared to them, he really seemed a little sad. Xu Zhong clenched his fists tightly, didn't stay in the banquet any longer, and turned to leave.

At the moment when Xu Zhong left and disappeared by the door, He Huan noticed Xu Zhong's back. Although Xu Zhong had covered it up, He Huan had followed him for many years and was already familiar with everything about him.

"Lin Kai, I'm afraid the person who disappeared at the door just now is Xu Zhong!" He Huan pulled the sleeve of Yuan Linkai, who was pulling, and said with great certainty.

"What?" Yuan Linkai immediately turned around and wanted to take a look. But Xu Zhong has already disappeared, and there is no trace of him for a long time.

"You can't be mistaken! This is Jiang Jueli's private banquet, how dare he show up. Yuan Linkai asked He Huan suspiciously, not that he didn't believe He Huan, but he didn't believe that Xu Zhong had such courage.

"No, it won't! I know Xu Zhong too well, even if he deliberately disguised himself, I can still be sure that that person is him. He Huan said affirmatively, without a trace of hesitation.

Seeing that He Huan was so sure, Yuan Linkai knew that this must be true, but he couldn't figure it out, if Xu Zhong really came, how could he just appear and disappear all of a sudden. With his idea of quick success, I'm afraid he won't give up if he doesn't make some trouble here.

"Jiang Jueli, just now Huanhuan saw Xu Zhong appear in this venue." Yuan Linkai came to Jiang Jueli's side and whispered to him.

Hearing this, Jiang Jueli immediately frowned. Although it was not difficult for Xu Zhong to come, he didn't understand like Yuan Linkai why Xu Zhong came and left without even saying a word. No matter how bad it is, he has to squeeze himself two sentences, so that his heart will be comfortable.

"It seems that the tranquility of City C is really coming to an end recently." Jiang Jueli said in a heavy tone, looking at Yuan Linkai, there was some tacit understanding between the two men. This period of tranquility, they all perceived something unusual. The more it doesn't show anything at this time, the more it shows that the calm of the present is the calm before the storm.

"I think he's probably just here to make himself more determined. Just Maybe...... He saw Shen Shi's intimacy with you, and was stimulated, so he just came in and left. But the more this happens, the more crazy their actions will be. After all, He Huan knew Xu Zhong better, and he pointed things to the point in one sentence.

Shen Shi heard He Huan's words, could Xu Zhong still be stimulated because of himself? She always thought that Xu Zhong had no meaning for herself, after all, she was quite ruthless to him.

"It seems that we have to be more cautious in the future, otherwise when he suddenly goes crazy, I'm afraid we will be caught off guard." Yuan Linkai said lightly, without glancing at Shen Shi.

The banquet went smoothly, and there was not the slightest accident, not even the accident that Jiang Jueli expected. This kind of calm seems to be more and more abnormal, which makes Jiang Jueli very worried about the situation after that. Although a Xu Zhong is not to be feared, what kind of strength Uncle Liu behind Xu Zhong has, Jiang Jueli can't find out the depths. The more unknown it is, the more terrifying it becomes.

After the banquet, after Jiang Jueli and Yuan Linkai discussed, they tightened the management of Chenlou and the Lin family. On the one hand, they must eliminate a wider range of commercial spies as soon as possible, and on the other hand, they must also strengthen the existing people's hearts. Otherwise, even if the existing spies are cleared, Xu Zhong may be exploited into other loopholes.
