"I don't know about that, but it's better to be happy than gloomy!" Jin Xianglin said without looking up from the newspaper.
After pondering for a moment, Xiao Jingru didn't think too much into it. It was common for young girls to alternate between being happy and sad every few days; there wasn't anything worth getting overly concerned about. With this thought in mind, she continued watching TV while Jin Xianglin kept reading the newspaper.
Now that Jin Xianglin's company had professional teams managing it, his life became more leisurely. At his level of success, social engagements were significantly reduced, allowing him to spend a lot of time at home.
Xiao Yu returned to the villa and made himself some food before sitting cross-legged on the floor in meditation. He didn't give Xiaozhu's matter much thought; as long as he stayed true to his heart, what could shake him
"Xiao Yu! Xiao Yu!"
The next afternoon, while Xiao Yu was seeing patients at Wan Sheng Hall, Wei Jun’s voice suddenly rang out from outside.
After a moment, Wei Jun appeared in the room. He was dressed in an impeccable suit with his hair neatly styled and shiny. Seeing the well-groomed Wei Jun, Xiao Yu couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Jun, are you going on a date Why are you so formally dressed"
"Don't say that or my wife will skin me alive!" After hearing Xiao Yu's words, Wei Jun turned to glance outside before saying.
"What’s wrong Did your wife come too Why didn’t she come in then"
Seeing Wei Jun look towards the outside, Xiao Yu followed his gaze and noticed Wei Jun's car parked there with Jiang Ling seemingly seated inside. He asked Wei Jun about it.
"She’s here, just in the car! I came to tell you something then leave; she didn’t come down!" Wei Jun said as he averted his gaze.
"Xiao Yu, come on. Change into some clothes and join us at an evening banquet today! It's quite rare for such a reception to be held for the公子李家的公子今晚商會舉辦了一個宴會歡迎他,魏軍的父親是商會中的人,所以魏軍不但自己能去,就是帶兩個人也無所謂。於是他就想到了蕭煜,想帶著蕭煜見識一下。
"軍哥,我不去了,今天晚上肖總家的那個丫頭讓我陪她參加個什麼晚宴!"
Xiao Yu heard Wei Jun's words and said with a long face.
"Oh...... Hehe........" Upon hearing Xiao Yu, Wei Jun revealed an odd smile, looking at Xiao Yu with a mocking gaze, as if he understood something that only men would know.
"Don't misunderstand me. I just couldn't keep refusing her, and after accompanying her to the banquet today, she said she wouldn’t pester me anymore!"
Seeing Wei Jun's lecherous grin, Xiao Yu explained helplessly. Although he knew that Wei Jun was joking around, he still didn't want to be misunderstood.
"Haha........ Okay, okay, no need to explain, I know you well enough."
Wei Jun laughed loudly when he saw Xiao Yu seriously explaining the situation. He said to Xiao Yu:
Xiao Yu looked at Wei Jun laughing without restraint and shook his head helplessly. He then told Wei Jun, "Do you believe that I will go out right now and tell my嫂子 about some things from school"
"No way! Little brother... Ancestor, I'm wrong, okay" As soon as Wei Jun heard Xiao Yu's words, the smug smile on his face turned into a bitter one. He pleaded with Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu watched in dismay at how Wei Jun’s expression changed so quickly and shook his head helplessly. The speed of Wei Jun's facial transformation was almost as quick as that of Sichuan Opera actors.
"Alright, alright, let's go! Otherwise my嫂子 will be waiting impatiently!" Xiao Yu glanced inside the car at Jiang Ling and said to Wei Jun.
"Ouch, right. I need to leave, we're going for a meal or else we'll have to go hungry tonight!"
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Wei Jun also looked into the car and saw Jiang Ling looking over. He quickly said to Xiao Yu:
"Um........ Aren't banquets usually served with food" Xiao Yu was momentarily stunned when he heard that Wei Jun wanted to go for a meal.
"Haha, Xiao Yu, I forgot to tell you: during banquets, people only eat symbolically. Nobody will overeat there because bad table manners are embarrassing. Therefore, most people usually have their fill at home before going out! You're going to the banquet too, so why don't you grab something to eat first"
Wei Jun laughed loudly upon hearing Xiao Yu's question and explained it to him.
Hearing Wei Jun’s explanation, Xiao Yu was stunned. He hadn’t thought of this before.
In fact, it's not Xiao Yu’s fault. Due to family reasons, he has never participated in such gatherings of tycoons and is unaware of the various rules involved. Wei Jun had invited him a few times before, but because Xiao Yu disliked the atmosphere there, he had never attended.
"Alright, Xiao Yu, I'll take my leave now. I’ll come find you another day!"
Wei Jun said to Xiao Yu and then walked towards his car. Xiao Yu followed Wei Jun over to his car and joked with Jiang Ling inside the vehicle, saying, "Sister-in-law, you’ve passed by without entering."
"I couldn’t enter because I was in formal wear, Xiao Yu, don’t blame me!" Sitting inside the car, Jiang Ling said, showing a bit of embarrassment when hearing what Xiao Yu had said.
"Wife, don’t listen to his nonsense. We won't enter now, but we’ll go over there tomorrow and eat them out!" Wei Jun quickly said to Jiang Ling. When he spoke, the way he behaved was extremely respectful, as if talking to a queen.
Xiao Yu knew that Wei Jun wasn't afraid of his wife, but rather loved her deeply. Although their relationship had some political marriage undertones, Jiang Ling’s upbringing was good; she didn’t have any spoiled rich girl attitudes, so they got along very well. According to Wei Jun, both families were already preparing for their wedding.
"Alright, Xiao Yu, we're leaving now. You should go eat something too!"
Wei Jun said this when getting into the car and then sped off after saying goodbye to Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu returned to Wan Sheng Hall and saw that there were no patients at the moment, so he told Xiao Hongyang briefly before finding a place to eat. He couldn’t starve himself all day!
Yuan Chao was supposed to come today but had some matters in Beijing to take care of first; he could only come over tomorrow.
The recruitment for cashiers and accountants that took place today received a few inquiries, yet due to not meeting the requirements, they hadn't made any formal arrangements.
While Xiao Yu was eating outside, his phone suddenly rang. He pulled out his phone and saw it was Jin Xiu Zhu’s call; he picked up.
"Hello, Xiu Zhu, what's the matter calling now" Glancing at the time on the wall of the restaurant, it wasn't even 4:30 PM yet; Xiao Yu couldn’t help but ask curiously.
“Well…… Well…… Brother Xiao Yu, tonight’s banquet has been canceled and moved to tomorrow evening. Let's go then!” Jin Xiu Zhu said on the phone.
Jin Xiu Zhu sounded somewhat down when speaking; she had gone through great efforts to convince Xiao Yu to accompany her at the banquet but was told that their family would be attending another banquet organized by the Deep Sea Chamber of Commerce tonight. She originally didn’t want to attend, since they were going to have a banquet themselves tonight.
However, just as she planned on telling Xiao Jing Ru this, the organizer called her and informed her that their evening banquet was canceled because they needed to participate in the welcome party for Mr. Li from Hong Kong Island; thus, it had been moved to tomorrow instead.
There was no other way, so she only called Xiao Yu to inform him that the banquet had been rescheduled for tomorrow.
Jin Xiu Zhu originally wanted Xiao Yu to accompany her to a banquet hosted by the Chamber of Commerce, but after thinking about it, she gave up. First of all, inviting Xiao Yu could not be known by Jin Xiang Lin and Xiao Jing Ru; if they found out, they would definitely stop her! Second, such banquets were rather dull, and the focus was on people from the Hong Kong Li family, while they merely served as guests.
The banquet they hosted themselves was different. In their circles, Jin Xiu Zhu was undoubtedly a princess-level existence, so it was better to show off at their own banquet.
"Oh......... Alright then, we'll talk about it tomorrow! If I'm free, I'll accompany you there!"
Upon hearing over the phone that Jin Xiu Zhu had canceled the banquet, Xiao Yu thought for a moment and said this to her.
Xiao Yu would fulfill his promises once he made them, and he also hoped to quickly put an end to her thoughts so that she wouldn't pester him, otherwise things would only become more chaotic.
"Alright, Brother Xiao Yu, I'll contact you tomorrow!" Jin Xiu Zhu said.
After hearing what she said, Xiao Yu hung up the call.
Xiao Yu looked at his half-eaten meal and helplessly shook his head. There was no other way; since he had already eaten halfway through it, he might as well continue eating! Although having dinner this early was a bit too soon.
"Eh........ Master, aren't you going to the banquet Why haven't you started preparing yet"
After finishing his meal and seeing that there was still some time before it got late, Xiao Yu returned to the clinic. As soon as he entered Wan Sheng Hall's main gate, Xiao Hong Yang saw him back again and asked in surprise.
"Yes, I'm not going. Tonight's banquet has been canceled and moved to tomorrow evening!" Xiao Yu replied to Xiao Hong Yang.
Wan Sheng Hall was no longer very busy; apart from a few people waiting for their prescriptions, there were only a handful of patients left.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Wan Sheng Hall closed on schedule.
Xiao Yu saw Xiao Hong Yang and Liu Erxi leave, then drove towards Dongyuan Villa.
"Ringing.........." Just as Xiao Yu was driving back home, his phone suddenly rang again.it had already reached adulthood; how long it lived before that, he could not know for certain. It basically grew to maturity right under his nose.He also understood the golden eagle's habits well: no...
