C173 A strange banquet

Furthermore, this time there was another special person, not only Han Yuqi and Bai Youya, Qin Lang had also returned. He would also be participating in this time's gathering, and moreover, as a special guest, these people who were already in an uproar suddenly joined together, and there must have been some huge benefit factor. These factors are like syrup full of a strong sweet taste, constantly attracting those who want a share of the business ant.

Xu Mengyun took out a list of participants. This list was sent over along with the invitation card, but Qin Lang, who had already disappeared for a few months, had actually chosen to return at the same time as Bai Youya. It was truly something that people couldn't help but be wary of.

"Qin Lang? Could it be a duplicate name? " When Ouyang Jue saw these two words, he quickly searched through the industry elites in his mind to see if there was anyone who was unlucky enough to have the same name as this man. The grudge between him and the Bai Family was not something that could be explained with a few words.

To Bai Youya, we are the true culprit behind the destruction of her property. In order to deal with us, she can cooperate with anyone she wants, not to mention that Qin Lang had helped her eliminate Bai Tianlong and the other successors of the Bai Family.

Right now, she and Ouyang Jue were completely on the same side. No matter what intentions Bai Youya and Han Yuqi had when they came back this time, they were both going to deal with the two of them.

Xu Mengyun did not know if she should thank the two of them, and allowed her to stay at Madame Ouyang's seat for a while longer. But the location of the banquet was the engagement point between Ouyang Jue and Xu Mengyun, and Han Yuqi had chosen that place not only because the hotel was the best hotel in the city, but also because he was afraid that he would take revenge on her, he must have come back to retrieve everything that he had lost.

"They really know how to join in on the fun. However, it's good for everyone to come back. It just so happens that we can deal with them together."

Ouyang Jue had wanted to face Qin Lang for a long time, but it was a pity that he had never revealed himself. This kind of villain existed in the circle of the Wealthy Class and would cause trouble sooner or later. Instead, he would use this opportunity to get rid of them. The first person he had to deal with was Han Yuqi, and only by cutting off their funding source would he be able to prevent this small group from continuing to expand.

"However... What about Cai'er's side? Don't tell me I have to find someone to tie her up in her room? "

Ouyang Jue knew that he could no longer hide this matter, with Han Yuqi causing such a huge commotion, the media would definitely receive the news and report about it. At that time, it would not be difficult for Ning Caier to see him, he could only stop him to stall for time. Especially after seeing Ning Caier's escaping skills, no matter how many people he sent to watch her, she would always have the chance to run out of the room.

"I will bring Ning Caier along, since she is also on the invitation list."

Xu Mengyun pointed to the last name on the list, which was actually Ning Caier. Her career had just started, and she was not considered a top person in the business world. Han Yuqi's actions clearly showed that she did not have any good intentions, how could Xu Mengyun allow them to meet in this kind of situation, and at that time, who knew how that man would use Ning Caier.

Ouyang Jue's fidgety expression made him look like a parent who knew that his daughter had been in love for a long time, but the more he suppressed things like love, the more it would rebound, not to mention that in Xu Mengyun's opinion, rather than letting them meet in private, it would be safer if they could stay in front of everyone.

The facts proved that Xu Mengyun's guess was not wrong. When she invited Ning Caier to go with her, she had already prepared clothes for the banquet and was walking around her room excitedly. It was just that the future star of the design world looked like Cinderella preparing to go to a ball.

After quarreling with Ouyang Jue, Ning Caier moved into the dilapidated rented house by herself, in order to save the most money. She could quickly pay Ouyang Jue back, and the people who lived here were mostly students who had just graduated and lived in the city, so Xu Mengyun's luxurious car was especially conspicuous outside the entrance of the courtyard, causing almost everyone in the courtyard to come over to watch.

They couldn't figure out Ning Caier's identity. Since she had such a rich friend, why would she stay with them in this place? Looking at the clothes Xu Mengyun was wearing, they knew that they might not even be able to buy one of her shirts with a year's worth of income.

"Boss Xu, I knew he would come back to find me, I've always believed in Yu Qi, I know he can do it."

When Ning Caier received the invitation card, she treated it as a treasure. She had always believed in Han Yuqi's abilities, and now that he had finally returned, it wasn't in vain that she had waited for him for so long. She took out the few simple accessories that she had and matched them up, hoping to appear in her best condition in front of Han Yuqi.

Looking at Ning Caier who was in high spirits, Xu Mengyun could not bear to pour cold water on her, the reason why Han Yuqi sent her the invitation was most likely to humiliate her, if she was dressed splendidly, it would be alright, at least she could fight to a standstill with Han Yuqi, but if she were to wear such a normal dress, even if did not say anything, she would have already lost a round.

"Hurry up and pack up, I don't want to be late."

From start to end, Xu Mengyun stood at Ning Caier's house and did not have the intention to sit down. Although it was very clean here, the furniture was still a little broken, and even the bed was made from a lot of wooden planks.

Xu Mengyun had interacted with the slums before when she was doing charity, but this was the first time she was actually standing in a place like this, and the shock that she felt was beyond imagination. She did not understand why Ning Caier came here specifically to suffer through this, could it be that using the Ouyang Family's money was her so-called dignity? However, for the people living here to even have a problem of being fed, how could such a life have any dignity to speak of?

Xu Mengyun felt that Ning Caier was wasting her ability and resources. If other people had her current chance, they would definitely want it more than anything, and not continuously pushing this opportunity away for the sake of this so-called dignity. She wanted to advise Ning Caier otherwise, but she felt that there was no need for it. What she had seen tonight might be even more effective than words she had said before.

"Boss Xu, can I do this?"

Ning Caier hesitated for a long time before she finally combed her hair into a normal bun. On her head was a hair clip decorated with pearls, but that was not a real pearl, but rather an ornament bought at a roadside store. Although this ornament would light up under the light of the lamp, it was definitely not a pearl's luster, but a miserable white light.

"I think I'll just put these on properly for today's occasion." Xu Mengyun had asked Ouyang Jue to bring a few pieces of jewelry, in hopes that sshe would be able to wear them to today's banquet. However, when Ning Caier saw the words "Tianxiong Jewelry", he knew that it wasn't Xu Mengyun's idea, but that it was something else.

"Miss Xu, I feel that this way of dressing is very good. I am just a child from a commoner family that should maintain the appearance of a commoner family." Ning Caier returned the box of jewelry to Xu Mengyun. She didn't want Han Yuqi to feel like she was receiving his help during this period of time, she wanted to see Han Yuqi in her most primitive and pure state.

"Suit yourself, as long as you don't regret it." Xu Mengyun let out a heavy sigh. She looked at the decently dressed Ning Caier, and felt that today's banquet was truly a big problem, Ning Caier, dressed like this, would definitely be ridiculed, and now she only hoped that Ouyang Jue could restrain himself, and not fight against him during the banquet.

Ning Caier and Xu Mengyun arrived at the venue punctually, although it was not her first time here, her mood was completely different. From the moment she entered the hotel, she had been looking around, hoping to see Han Yuqi. As the owner of this banquet, he should have been standing at the entrance to welcome her, but in reality, only the security guards were checking the invitation letters at the entrance.

Ning Caier could not help but be a little disappointed, but she braced herself and followed Xu Mengyun towards the big gate. Today, she was dressed in a pure and charming outfit, so if she walked on the street, it would definitely attract the attention of many men.

But in this brilliant golden hall, Ning Caier's dressing was out of place compared to the precious jeweled environment around them. In the flash of a diamond, her cotton dress was simply too out of place, to the point that the security guards at the entrance thought that she was Xu Mengyun's assistant.

"I'm sorry, Miss Xu, you are not allowed to bring an assistant into this banquet."

The security guard turned around and looked at Ning Caier, his eyes immediately turning ice cold. This place always respected others at the beginning, but with Ning Caier's ordinary clothes, if she hadn't followed Xu Mengyun, they would have thought she was some random person who had sneaked in from the outside.

"I have an invitation." Ning Caier saw that the security guard had misunderstood and quickly took out her invitation card. She didn't mind the security's expression at all, she only wanted to quickly enter so that she could see Han Yuqi again.

"So it's Miss Ning. I'm sorry, please come in." They had heard that Ning Caier had achieved very good results abroad. She had returned home in glory this time, but how could such a budding designer make herself look so miserable? The clothes she was wearing could not even compare to the staff here.

However, this banquet didn't have any mandatory regulations regarding clothing, so they could only let them go. However, they couldn't help but exchange glances. Tonight's banquet was akin to meeting an enemy, and they didn't know if it would implicate innocent security personnel like them.

"Meng Yun, Cai'er, you guys are here."

Ouyang Jue rushed to the banquet hall early in the morning. He had already decided that he would guard by Ning Caier's side tonight no matter what, and he would absolutely not give Han Yuqi the chance to talk to her alone. It was just that he was surprised that she was dressed like this, he immediately looked at Xu Mengyun, but under the current situation, even the young miss Xu could only shake his head helplessly.

It was not a good thing for Xu Mengyun to be too stubborn in the business world and not understand how to follow the flow. The reason why Xu Mengyun was able to maintain her unique style was because she had the huge family background of the Xu Family, but Ning Caier, this kind of girl who did not even have a family background, could only be a laughing stock for everyone if she wanted to act alone.
