White and soft light shines from the diamond chandelier on the ceiling. The restaurant is very quiet, only the sound of tableware can be heard, and the maids are constantly serving exquisite dishes.
Cheng Li and Chongming stood quietly next to the round table, looking respectfully at the family of five in front of them. They had served the Ai Bolun family for more than 50 years.
When Michelle was ten years old, the two of them worked here as domestic helpers. They were well aware of all the big and small things in the family, but at this time both of them could see it.
It can be clearly seen on the round table.
Michelle sat upright on the chair and ate her meal leisurely. She slept for a while and took a bath, and most of her fatigue had been eliminated.
Mitchell looked around. Michelle on the right still showed a cold look. Miguel, the second brother on the left, looked a little deep. Even the third sister Milu, who was usually talkative, was also expressionless at this time.
He stopped talking, and his father Charles sat opposite him.
The atmosphere was a bit solemn. It was not at all like the atmosphere a family should have when having a meal. They were so close and within reach, but in Mitchell's view, the family was getting further and further away. He had not spoken to his father for a long time.
I said something to myself, although I have a better relationship with the eldest sister next to me, she is busy with work in the administrative department and may not see her even once a month.
The same goes for Mitchell and his second brother and third sister. Ever since they started taking care of the family business, they have basically spent less time together and more time away from each other. Moreover, they have no common topics with them and often cannot talk to each other.
Apart from attending some banquets with them, I rarely get together in private.
"Sister, do you have any suitable candidates? Can you introduce me to them?"
Mitchell couldn't stand it anymore and spoke with a smile first. Charles glanced at Mitchell.
"When will you grow up? If you come back home and work properly, you can have as many partners as you want. I will help you arrange it!"
"It's so boring. I'm the type who needs to make eye contact on the street, see her in the crowd, and then chase her to get her phone number. Don't be old-fashioned, dad, I will never go on a blind date."
Charles frowned, and Millau laughed.
"With your cynical and flirtatious look, who would like you? Brother, there are quite a lot of beauties in our company. Why don't you come over and work for a while? Maybe..."
Mitchell raised his hand and waved.
"Third sister, I have attended many gatherings with you before, within your company. I don't like the girls in your company very much. I think about the beauties all day long. What are the good things about beauties? Their IQ and
Internally, what is it about me that is worthy of those wealthy husbands? Right, besides, I really hate people who don’t know themselves."
"Isn't that what you are?"
Miguel interrupted, Michelle still didn't speak, and the other four people's eyes drifted to Michelle from time to time.
"Sister, would you like to go to a party with me when you have time? Tomorrow night, maybe you can find the right man. I think it's time for you to think about men."
"unnecessary!"
Three words came out of Michelle's mouth coldly. Michelle wiped her lips, put the tableware neatly, and stacked the dishes together. A maid behind her hurriedly came over to clean up, and another maid brought a cup of black tea.
.
The atmosphere at the table immediately fell into a tense state again. Mitchell frowned, and the topic he finally raised was cut off by the third sister's inappropriate words. He glared at Mi Luer.
Charles sighed, finally unable to hold himself any longer, but at this moment Michelle stood up.
"Sorry, I want to take a rest."
After saying this, Michelle bowed, turned around and walked out of the restaurant indifferently. Cheng Li hurriedly followed.
"What are you doing, Third Sister? You're talking about a banquet or a wedding partner. Don't you know the situation of the eldest sister?"
Mirul sighed.
"I have never seen a woman who is stronger than my eldest sister. She is so cold and cold. No man can like her!"
"Indeed, if anyone gets along with the eldest sister, I'm afraid it will be a headache. The whole process will be awkward and silent."
Mitchell sighed.
"What are you going to do? The eldest sister refuses to let go."
Charles sighed and stood up, when Chongming stood up.
"Master, I think the eldest lady looks very tired today. Maybe she is still thinking about it. I think we should wait a little longer."
Charles sat down and put his hand on his forehead.
"It's obviously a very simple question. As long as she asks, she doesn't need to go to Section Chief Niya in person. Locke has already agreed to intercede for us. I really don't know what has happened to her over the years?
It’s like being possessed.”
Seeing his father lowering his head helplessly, Mitchell recalled that his eldest sister once told him something. Jean, the section chief of Section 13, only said a few words, but the eldest sister's words were full of awe.
of.
The eldest sister didn't say anything at that time. She just said that there were people who were more passionate than her. They had never rested for 50 years and were always working. They secretly solved too many problems for the city. One person shouldered everything, but never
Have any complaints.
This sounded unimaginable to Mitchell, but he just smiled at the time and always thought it was impossible. He still remembered that his eldest sister had just said that when she was transferred to the General Affairs Department.
Over the years, Mitchell has seen his eldest sister come home from the General Affairs Department very late, countless times. However, following the almost hostile quarrel with her father, the eldest sister never came home again.
Later, the eldest sister became the secretary-general. The secretary-general, who was recognized by 13 section chiefs, married a woman from the executive section. That’s when the news started to spread.
Looking at the three relatives in front of him, Mitchell was convinced that they could not speak, because the eldest sister's temper was best known to the family. If the eldest sister was really offended, they might start quarreling again. This is not what the whole family wants to see.
.
At this time, Michelle returned to the bedroom where she had lived for 30 years. All the furnishings in it were intact, except for a white carved dresser, a comfortable large bed, a white and blue striped quilt, and white walls.
Yes, there is also a small cabinet, a small round table and a chair. On the round table is a pot of spherical cactus.
This was my mother's favorite plant during her lifetime. It was thorny but extremely strong. Her mother often told Michelle that this plant could survive tenaciously even in places with very little water.
There was a knock on the door of the room, and Michelle said come in.
After Cheng Li walked in, she bowed and came to Michelle's side. At this time, Michelle had already brought up the light and shadow panel and started to read the documents.
"Isn't there any room for maneuver? Miss."
Michelle did not answer, but continued to look at the light and shadow screen, scanning the documents with cold eyes. After Cheng Li was reserved for a while, she bowed and left the room.
Didi didi
Michelle looked at the 0000 number and picked up.
"Your Excellency, Manager, is there something wrong?"
"I'm sorry for disturbing your rest, Michelle. I just want to inform you that the girl is fine. I will keep an eye on her later. You should have a good rest tonight and spend more time with your family!"
Michelle hummed.
"By the way, I will go to Section Chief Xue Wang's house at 10 o'clock. The section chiefs will also go there. We will have an informal meeting, which can be regarded as a dinner party. The work has been handed over to the directors and secretaries. Your dad
Didn’t they say anything to you over there?”
"No!"
"Haha, that's right. Have a good rest, or just take this opportunity to take a few days off. You haven't been home for many years."
Michelle directly rejected Locke's proposal.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Manager, there are still too many things to deal with. You are the same. You haven't been home for a long time. Is that okay?"
After a while, Locke hung up the phone. Michelle continued to look at some documents on the light and shadow screen, frowning slightly.

6:40
"Sorry, ladies, I came here today to wait for a lady and invite her on a date!"
Jean bowed to the women in front of him. Many women still wanted to drag Jean to the banquet. But seeing that there was no chance, they could only leave with a smile. Jean bowed to many people.
wave.
“It’s so stressful!”
Ran Zai felt like this every time he was with Jean. He was curled up next to a tree trunk, squatting and playing a percussion game. He was obviously not bad looking, but when he was with Jean, women would choose
Sex ignores oneself.
At this time, many people walked through First Avenue. A large number of businessmen looked at Jean. Some came over to say hello and extended invitations, but Jean refused them all.
Tonight is the Angus family's first dinner in 30 years. The bosses of the middle and lower-level small and medium-sized enterprises with problems are all invited to attend. They need to sign a cooperation investment agreement. Many people look happy, some celebrities, and members of the family.
People were also invited and everyone was very excited.
