Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Li Ran originally planned to ask Zhou Liu out the next day, but before she could implement her plan, she received a banquet invitation.
In the morning, this invitation was sent to all the families in A City’s business and political world. It was enough to show how grand this banquet was. 142.93.60.102
The host of this banquet was actually the Song family.
The Song family was a very low-profile family in A City. They didn’t attend any banquets and didn’t hold any banquets. The last banquet was held when Song Shi went abroad two years ago. From the time, the Song family probably held this banquet to congratulate Song Shi on her return to the country.
The Song family’s banquet couldn’t be underestimated. Other than the famous people in the business world, academics and politicians would also attend. It was enough to show how prominent the Song family was in upper society.
Shi Xiao crossed his arms on his knees as he said, “Without the support of the resources of a major family, this person wouldn’t have been able to play such a big game. 1 wonder which family did so much behind the scenes without us noticing.”
Yuan Shu packed her things and was about to leave when Shi Xiao suddenly said, “There’s an important meeting at the company on the day of the banquet, so 1 can’t be there on time.”
Yuan Shu said, “That’s quite good. If the mo of us don’t appear at the same time, it can confirm the rumors that we quarreled.”
Shi Xiao frowned. “But if you go first, you’ll definitely have to face everyone’s questioning and probing gazes. I’m afraid someone will make things difficult for you. I don’t want you to suffer.”
Yuan Shu said with a smile, “These difficulties are nothing. Didn’t 1 put up with it when you went missing in Africa? Didn’t 1 attend the banquets of the other families? Now, we’re just not attending at the same time and I’m arriving a little earlier than you. What’s so difficult about that?”
Shi Xiao thought about how times had changed. At that time, he did have the intention of using Yuan Shu, so he didn’t mind pushing her to the center of attention, but it was different now. He cherished Yuan Shu and didn’t want her to suffer all this alone.
For this banquet, the various families began to custom-made gowns. Usually, they would go to the Wang family or Xu Lang’s haute couture clothing shop, which was now the Down Ridge Clothes Workshop.
However, ever since Yushu Buyi’s first distribution, its fame had risen drastically. In addition, after the company found Shi Lu to shoot a set of advertisements and endorse Yushu Buyi, Yushu Buyi’s number of orders skyrocketed and its status rose. It became one of the top choices for wealthy families..
