White Moonlight and Mosquito Blood
Chapter 8 Birthday Banquet
The Xiao family mansion was built in the middle of the mountain, with the mountain on its back and the sea facing the sea. Standing on the balcony, it happened to be looking at the bustling night view of Victoria Harbour.
As soon as Xiao Yutong hung up the phone, she heard the French window being pushed open behind her.
"Xiao Yu, it's cold at night. It's just right for a cold. Don't stand on the balcony to blow the air." Xiao Shaojie came out of the room, took off his suit and put it on Xiao Yutong.
"Brother." Xiao Yutong called out obediently.
"It's rare to come back. Go into the house and talk to mom more. It's more important for you to be with her alone than our family." Xiao Shaojie rubbed the tip of Xiao Yutong's slightly long hair.
"It's not that exaggerated." Xiao Yutong smiled and gathered up his elder brother's coat, it was indeed a bit cold.
"Go home and have a look if you have nothing to do. Mom scolded me so many times for investing in Feng Yu for you. I'm afraid you'll forget about her because you're busy with business." Xiao Shaojie sighed helplessly.
"Okay, okay, the investor's request is the imperial decree! You must go all out!" Xiao Yutong gave Xiao Shaojie a military salute pretending to be.
"Little uncle, grandma is looking for you." A 4- or 5-year-old girl poked her head out of the floor-to-ceiling window and waved to Xiao Yutong.
"Okay, Dandan will accompany uncle to find grandma!" Xiao Yutong went up to meet the little girl and hugged her up.
The little girl turned to Xiao Shaojie for help, "Daddy, save me!"
Xiao Yutong ran into the house with quick strides. Apart from him, the only person in the family who could distract Mrs. Xiao's attention was little girl Xiao Yidan. Ever since he was born, he has attracted the attention of everyone, and he is the existence that gathers the aura of all the protagonists in one body.
It's not Xiao Yutong's style to let such a useful little helper go to waste.
Seeing that his younger brother was still like a child, Xiao Shaojie shook his head dumbfounded.
"Dandan went to make light rain again?" Lin Xiaoxiao came out of the kitchen with a fruit plate and asked Xiao Shaojie with a smile when she heard Tongtong and Xiaoyu yelling.
"Xiao Yu is so grown up, and he's still making trouble with Dandan, no matter how big or small." Xiao Shaojie curled his lips.
"Don't be like a little old man for a day, the fourth brother is very good like this, very energetic, unlike you, old-fashioned." Lin Xiaoxiao covered her mouth and laughed.
Seeing his wife being amused, Xiao Shaojie felt more at ease, and took the plate from Lin Xiaoxiao's hand, "Yes, yes, what my wife said is right."
Zhu Xinya's 58th birthday banquet was arranged on the top floor of the Lido Hotel, the largest five-star hotel banquet hall in Hong Kong City.The banquet hall is surrounded by floor-to-ceiling glass, with a 3-story overhead floor. The crystal chandeliers are said to be custom-made from Europe. Each crystal ball shines with dazzling brilliance. You can tell it's worth a lot at first glance.
The waiters are well-dressed, walking among the guests with a tray in one hand, and their appearance and temperament are both excellent.Pulling out any one is no worse than a starlet on TV.
The banquet officially started at 7 o'clock, and just after 6 o'clock, the guests who participated had already arrived. They were either rich or expensive, and there were a few officials who usually never participated in business activities also stood at the venue a little cautiously. The corner of the room was surrounded by a group of bigwigs from the business world chatting.
In addition to the political and business circles, there are many celebrities in the philanthropic circle. Mrs. Xiao has never participated in the management of her own business, but she has always been committed to charity for children. She has supported the basic education of thousands of young people and established a special charity. Donated to no less than [-] Hope Schools for the Children's Support Education Foundation in impoverished mountainous areas.He is a well-respected philanthropist in the socialite circle of Hong Kong City.
When Duan Hongbo brought Secretary Qin into the venue, he had a deeper understanding of the overall strength of the Xiao family.
Although Duan Hongbo didn't know many people in Hong Kong City, he met many leading figures in various fields at the venue, and businessmen came and went to some extent to be able to build relationships. As soon as they entered the venue, there were several companies. The executives came over to say hello, and the scene was quite harmonious.
"Brother Bo." Lu Zhaohui waved to Duan Hongbo from a distance.
Duan Hongbo smiled back at him. "Thank you, Zhaohui."
"You're welcome, it's rare that you come to my place usefully." Lu Zhaohui kept his posture in front of Duan Hongbo just right.
Judging by his background and social status, Duan Hongbo's circle of Lu Chaohui is absolutely out of reach. It is a rare opportunity to catch the eyes of this big guy, so he must perform well.
Lu Zhaohui took Duan Hongbo around the venue, and introduced Duan Hongbo to several prominent figures in the Hong Kong city.Duan Hongbo was also happy and relaxed, and followed Lu Zhaohui around the venue to say hello.
After a while, there was a commotion at the door. Duan Hongbo raised his eyes and looked over. A middle-aged couple in grand attire came in from the front door arm in arm, followed by a young couple in their 20s and 30s. With a 4 year old girl.
"Mr. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao are here." Duan Hongbo heard people around talking in low voices.
"Following is Xiao Dong's eldest son's family. Xiao Shaojie is in charge of the high-end hotel business. His wife Lin Xiaoxiao is the eldest lady of "Linhong Transport". The two are alumni. They have been married for 7 or 8 years. They are a model couple. His daughter." Lu Zhaohui briefly explained Xiao's basic situation to Duan Hongbo. "Dong Xiao has not cared about the specific business in the past two years. Xiao's hotel business is basically controlled by the boss of the Xiao family, the second brother Xiao Shaoming is assisted, and the third brother Xiao Shaohui takes over the catering business."
"En." Duan Hongbo nodded. He vaguely remembered that Secretary Qin told him yesterday that the Xiao family had four sons, so he didn't ask much after thinking about it.
Xiao Dong is about 180 tall. For a person in his 60s, his figure is fairly well-proportioned. It can be seen that he must have been a handsome guy when he was young. He was wearing a dark suit and had a smile on his mouth. Harmonious yet majestic.
Mrs. Xiao came from a famous family and was an only daughter. Her husband who married after she became an adult was also a wealthy man who loved her very much. Although she already had 4 sons, she lived a happy life and treated her very preferentially. She was wearing a dark red dress The cheongsam, with her hair elegantly coiled up, looks like she is in her 40s at most, not at all like a grandma.
After the protagonist arrived, the atmosphere became quite lively, and many people turned their attention to the Xiao family.
"Brother Bo, take a break first, I'll go over and say hello to Brother Xiao." Of course Lu Zhaohui knew the purpose of Duan Hongbo's coming to this banquet, and he had to be slick when it came to matchmaking.
Duan Hongbo thought that Lu Zhaohui would not be able to come back in a while, so he threw Secretary Qin at the venue, and retreated outside the banquet hall to get some air. He tossed and turned and couldn't sleep last night. Hong Bo wanted to smoke a cigarette in the smoking room outside the venue.
The protagonist just arrived at the venue, and there were not many people outside the venue. The Xiao family was rich and powerful, and there were 3 smoking rooms outside the banquet hall, and a few people stood here and there chatting.
Duan Hongbo walked to the innermost room, which was empty and empty. There was a chair next to the window, with its back facing the door, which was in line with Duan Hongbo's wishes.
He lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and was about to close his eyes and rest for a while.
"Be good, don't run around, go to my room and sleep for a while if you feel bored." The door was pushed open, and two people walked in.
Duan Hongbo turned his head to look over, he was stunned for a moment, he never expected to see Xiao Shaojie and Nick here.
"Okay, okay, go get busy." Xiao Yutong pouted impatiently.
Xiao Shaojie came to rub his hair habitually again, Xiao Yutong put his head on Xiao Shaojie's shoulder, not letting him touch it.
Xiao Shaojie patted Xiao Yutong's arm helplessly, turned and left.
As soon as Xiao Yutong hung up the phone, she heard the French window being pushed open behind her.
"Xiao Yu, it's cold at night. It's just right for a cold. Don't stand on the balcony to blow the air." Xiao Shaojie came out of the room, took off his suit and put it on Xiao Yutong.
