Because Lu's mother was going to the Gu family's banquet, Zhao Minyao went to the Lu family in advance to pick her up.
When I arrived at Lu's house, I found that Lu's mother had not even put on makeup.
Zhao Minyao frowned subconsciously: "We are about to leave, why haven't you put on makeup yet?"
It takes nearly two hours to drive from Haicheng to Linjiang City.
Time is very tight and there is no time to put on makeup.
Mother Lu clenched her fingers, raised her eyes and smiled at Zhao Minyao: "I put on light makeup, but it's just not obvious."
Zhao Minyao looked at Mother Lu carefully for a while and frowned: "Her face is too pale, and the dark circles under her eyes are heavy. She looks like an angry little daughter-in-law, with no energy at all."
As she said that, she opened her handbag and took out an eyeliner: "I'll put some eyeliner on you to make you look more energetic."
"Forget it." Mother Lu refused, "That's fine. I'm not the protagonist. No one will pay attention to me."
Saying that, he hurriedly walked out.
She was there to gain sympathy, so how could she be so energetic?
——
The banquet took place in a villa on the outskirts of Gujia City, Linjiang City.
When the Zhao family arrived, there were already many guests.
Zhao Yuanhai quickly pushed Mr. Zhao to greet the shopping mall bosses.
On the way here, Mother Lu kept her eyes lowered and her mood was low.
It was only when I arrived at the Gu family that I felt somewhat energetic.
Holding her handbag tightly in her hand, her eyes kept wandering around the crowd, as if looking for something.
Unfortunately, there was no trace of Lu Xixin at all.
Zhao Minyao, who had been paying attention to Lu's mother, was a little strange at this moment. Isn't Xixin Gu's granddaughter? How could she not be present at such a big banquet held by the Gu family?
Even Gu Qinghui and others from the Gu family's side are helping to greet the guests.
Bai Zhi and Lin Jingtian personally greeted every guest present, but Lu Xixin was nowhere to be seen.
And, even stranger is.
This banquet was not as high-level as imagined. None of the big shots in the capital came. Not only that, but some aristocratic families a little further away didn't come either.
how so?
Zhao Minyao frowned.
Lu Xixin didn't come this time, so she didn't pay much attention to Mother Lu, but went to Mr. Zhao.
"Dad," she whispered, "not many people are here."
It’s not that not many people came, but it didn’t meet the expectations.
Not even the Pang family came.
The Gu family is kind to the Pang family.
Mr. Zhao also felt that something was wrong, but he didn't say anything. He just whispered: "Just wait and see what happens."
As soon as he finished speaking, a familiar chubby figure came up to him: "Mr. Zhao, are you here too?"
Tan Maoshi glanced at the wheelchair under Mr. Zhao, and said in a teasing tone: "You really give face to the Gu family."
It's all like this, and you still have to go through all the trouble from Huanhai City.
Isn't it for the Gu family's medical skills?
What a pity, what a pity, the man with superb medical skills is lying on the hospital bed now, and the remaining Angelica dahurica and Lin Jingtian cannot cure his disease.
Tan Maoshi's tone was wrong, and there was a hidden meaning in his words.
Zhao Minyao raised her eyes and said in a probing tone: "Mr. Tan, doesn't he also give the Gu family face?"
"I'm different." Tan Maoshi shook his head, and then his expression suddenly changed, his sharp eyes were like a wolf: "I have big things to do."
Tan Maoshi's Maoshi Pharmaceuticals and Kangtai Pharmaceuticals have always been in an arm-wrestling competitive relationship. Ten years ago, they even steadily dominated Kangtai Pharmaceuticals.
Ever since that old boy Gu Kangtai came up with the Great Return Pill seven years ago with the support of the Gu family, Maoshi Pharmaceutical has no longer been his opponent.
Over the years, that old boy Gu Kangtai has been dominating him, and Tan Maoshi has had enough!
This time, we must kill him!
As if he had foreseen the good times in the future, Tan Maoshi couldn't control it, laughed twice, stepped forward and held Mr. Zhao's hand: "You are so lucky, you didn't come in vain, there will be a big show to start soon, you can always
You have to take a good look."
After that, he left with a smile.
Mr. Zhao, father and daughter Zhao Minyao were left looking at Tan Maoshi's back, confused.
