Canary [Rebirth]

Chapter 42 Birthday Banquet

Huai City.

After the heat of the day dissipated, around eight o'clock, the guests arrived at the entrance of the hotel one after another.

Today is Lu Chengguo's birthday dinner.He has always been very face-saving, so this kind of face-related matter is naturally a special event, and the decorations, food, and snacks in the banquet are all luxurious and exquisite.

People come and go, and their clothes are fragrant and their temples are shadowed.

In Lu Yu's absence, everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Chengguo, circling around him like stars surrounding the moon.Lu Chengguo took a few sips of wine and thought with satisfaction that it would be good if Lu Yu wasn't here.If he was here, there would be many people around him, wouldn't it steal his limelight.

So, no matter what, Lu Yu couldn't be liked by him.

Lu Cheng had two lovers in the country. Although he didn't have a formal license, the hostess was indispensable for such an occasion, so he brought one out.Her name is Xiao Menghui, and she is Lu Xiu's mother. Normally, Lu Hui's mother, Zhang Xue, should have come out to deal with this kind of occasion, but who made Lu Hui not like Lu Chengguo recently, and was sent abroad, and Zhang Xue also left out in the cold.

She is a well-maintained woman, in her 40s, she looks like she is only in her early thirties, with a smile on her face, entertaining guests.Xiao Menghui frowned, most of the people who came this time were a couple with a young and beautiful girl, some were her own daughters, some were relatives' children, in short, they were all about the same age as Lu Yu.

Xiao Menghui took a glass of wine to hide the cold smile on her lips, walked up to Lu Xiu's side, and stepped on him.

Lu Xiu is the most unpromising of the three sons of the Lu family. He was inferior to Lu Hui when he was young, and was given up very early. Marry a wife seriously.People from the same family background as the Lu family looked down on Lu Xiu's ability and virtue, but Lu Chengguo looked down on those whose family was too far away. He was afraid of losing face, so he delayed until now.

Lu Xiu was drunk, stared at a beautiful lady not far away, and muttered, "Mom, what are you doing?"

Xiao Menghui became angry when she saw her son's appearance, "Look at the current situation, your father is going to find a wife for Lu Yu to marry, if he gets married, what will happen to you?"

Lu Xiu said: "Then what can I do? I can still beat Lu Yu. You see, the boss has been kicked out of the country. I don't want to go abroad."

Xiao Menghui hates iron but not steel. "Now is a good opportunity. Today, all the unmarried ladies from famous and respectable families in Huaicheng are here. You can find someone with a good family background to have a proper chat and a relationship. In the end, you will be unmarried and pregnant. So what if you agree, when the time comes when your daughter gets married, why don't you help me grab it with Lu Yu."

Lu Xiu thought for a while in a daze, and thought it was a good idea. He turned his eyes around, fixed on a few beautiful girls, and asked, "Among these, which one do you think is better?"

Before Xiao Menghui had time to point out the one she liked, she saw Lu Chengguo waved her hand, and a girl walked over there holding her mother's hand.

The girl's surname was Zhou, and her name was Zhou Ning. She was the only child of the Zhou family. She was beautiful and had just returned from studying in the United States.The property of the Zhou family is not rich, but it has always been a scholarly family and well educated.Zhou Ning's parents doted on her very much, and they couldn't find a suitable partner after thousands of choices. They had suffered because of lack of power, and they didn't want their daughter to choose someone in their circle to marry again. came here.

Lu Chengguo, a girl named Zhou Ning, was quite satisfied.After all, he just wanted to find a marriage partner for Lu Yu who could be tied to Huai City, not for a marriage. Gentle, beautiful, careful and considerate are the most important things.If the Zhou family is also powerful and Lu Yu's bargaining chip is increased, he will be worried instead.

Zhou Ning spoke softly, a little shy when responding to Lu Chengguo's words.

As for Lu Yu, she met several times at other banquets.Lu Yu is young and handsome, with outstanding abilities, but looking at the surface, which girl would not be tempted?

Not far away, Lu Jingyuan was hiding behind the crowd and eating fruit.Because she hadn't been accompanied by her mother since she was a child, she couldn't get along with her surroundings, and she never went to the usual banquets.This time, it was Lu Chengguo's birthday, so I had to come.

Lu Jingyuan is timid, but she is not stupid. With this posture, everyone knows what's going on.She thought for a while, recalling the way Lu Yu smiled at her last time, she still couldn't help but find out the phone number in Lu Yu's company, and called, but unfortunately she couldn't get Lu Yu's phone number.

Then there is no way.

Lu Jingyuan had no choice but to give up her thoughts.She thought, someone like the third brother would definitely not just listen to his father's mercy.

On the other side, Lu Yu was busy with work, and didn't even ask if the gift he gave was in line with Lu Chengguo's wishes.Even now, because a video conference hadn't finished yet, so there was no way to go back, so he called ahead of time and asked Pei Xiangque to eat something to pad his stomach.

After visiting Pei Xiangque's mother last time, Lu Yu didn't waste any time and took Pei Xiangque back to Ningjin the next day.After coming back, it was completely different. Pei Xiangque was his little sparrow.

He only owes it to himself.

Holding the mobile phone, Lu Yu was satisfied to hear Pei Xiangque, who was talking on the other side with a radiant look, and even his face softened a lot.

Although the executive at the other end of the video couldn't hear the sound, Lu Yu's appearance could always be seen.Seeing the gentle face of the boss, they opened the private chat tool with a heart in mind, and sent each other a "hehe" that only the other party could understand.

After the video conference was over, one of them sent another sentence with a bit of sadness, "But Mr. Lu's birthday today, it is said that there is a large-scale blind date dinner, I am really worried for the boss. I am single at an older age, and I finally fell in love. You have to cover it up, love without the blessing of your parents will not be happy!"

"...It's the first time I know that you play so much."

Lu Yu probably didn't know that this was one of the disadvantages of the managers becoming younger.

After the meeting, Lu Yu picked up his suit jacket and got into the car without putting it on.The driver did not drive back towards the community, but took a long detour and went to a cake shop.

At this time, the rush hour for getting off work had passed, the road was smooth, and the car quickly drove under the community.

The light was on in the room, and it came out from the window, and there was a person waiting for him inside.

Lu Yu took out the key and opened the door. When he looked up, he saw Pei Xiangque dozing off on the table. Because of the sound of opening the door, he suddenly lowered his head and almost knocked his chin on the glass tabletop. Fortunately, he supported it with one hand. up.

Pei Xiangque was dazed and rubbed his eyes, but he didn't see clearly yet, he just spoke instinctively, "Is Uncle Lu back?"

Lu Yu came closer and touched the back of his head, "Well, I'm back. What did you eat?"

The sweets and snacks from last time were all confiscated, and now all I buy are some salty crackers and the like.

"I ate a bag of biscuits." Pei Xiangque pointed to the bag of biscuits on the table, and smiled obediently, "Brush your teeth after eating."

Lu Yu raised the object in his hand, "So good? It's time to reward the little sparrow."
