Chapter 73: Meeting Again at the Banquet

The researchers on the island are busy every day, but they have smiles on their faces that even AK can't suppress.

Chi Jiujiu stayed here for five days.

Grandpa called and told her to go back to the manor as there was some happy event.

I was thinking about going back to see the research status of Handan Liquid by Lu Qing, and to inspect on-site the renovation of the newly purchased pharmaceutical factory to see how it was going.

She brought Fat Fox, Qin Jiu and three others with her early on Saturday morning.

Fly back to the manor.

The helicopter landed at the Gong family manor.

Chi Jiujiu walked in front holding Fat Fox. When she arrived at the door of the villa, she saw Gong Hong waiting for her on the lawn.

After entering the house and sitting down.

Chi Jiujiu raised her little face and asked Gong Hong with a smile, "Grandpa, what's the good news that you asked me to come back for?"

Gong Hong took a sip of the hot tea in his hand and said, "Let's go back to the old house tonight. Grandpa will hold a family reunion banquet for you. I asked Xiaolong and the others to prepare for it for a week."

"what?"

Chi Jiujiu was a little surprised. Her grandfather had mentioned this matter before, but she was too busy and almost forgot about it.

Chi Jiujiu, "Grandpa, why bother with all this?"

Gong Hong had a kind look on his face, "Jiujiu has been in Nancheng for so long, and Grandpa never took you to meet people. Apart from your Grandpa Hua and Grandpa Xie, there are a few other old friends of Grandpa that you haven't met yet!

There are also young talents in the upper class circles, you can get to know them better.

If you don’t like it, you can just make friends.”

Chi Jiujiu sighed slightly in her heart, "Okay, Grandpa, since you have arranged everything, let's do as you say."

"I'll let Xiaolong take you to get your hair done later. Grandpa has already had the dress delivered."

Chi Jiujiu responded obediently, "Grandpa, I'm sorry to bother you. Is there enough spiritual fruit tea? I'll make some more for you later, as well as ginseng and other things. I'll put two boxes of spiritual fruits and medicinal plants in the warehouse later. It's not easy to preserve too many at once."

Gong Hong grinned and said, "If it's enough, just put it in your storage ring. Grandpa will come to you if it's not enough."

After saying that, the old man took out a booklet and gave it to Chi Jiujiu.

On the left side of the booklet are photos of the characters.

On the right is a brief introduction of the character.

Gong Hong, "This is the list of people who will be attending the banquet tonight. Jiujiu, take a look at it first and recognize the people in advance."

Chi Jiujiu picked up the booklet, put it in her hand and quickly flipped through it, combining the characters and information. Within ten minutes, she wrote them down one by one.

Just in the booklet.

A handsome man caught her attention.

She looked up and asked Gong Hong, "Grandpa, this Meng Yudong is actually the third young master of the Nancheng Meng family?"

Gong Hong became interested, "Jiujiu knows him?"

Chi Jiujiu, "I met him once at a hot pot restaurant when I went out to pick out a New Year's gift for my grandfather before the New Year."

Gong Hong, "Oh, this kid has outstanding academic performance among the younger generation in South City. He is likely to become the heir of the Meng family."

Chi Jiujiu listened.

No longer following this person.

On Saturday morning, she went out with Brother Long to get her hair done.

In the afternoon, after returning to the manor and changing into a suitable dress, I went to the old house of the Gong family with my grandfather.

Gong Hong transferred all his assets to her name, but after Chi Jiujiu moved into the manor, she was always busy and never visited the old house.

Gong Hong himself often stays in the manor because the scenery here is better.

This family reunion banquet.

It was held in a grand manner.

Just put it in a house in the old city of the ancient capital.

As soon as Chi Jiujiu got off the car, she saw two big stone lions placed in front of the courtyard gate, looking majestic and domineering. She looked up and saw four big seal characters on the door plaque, which looked like "Gong Family Residence".

cough.

It’s her fault that this little girl is uneducated.

The only thing I can recognize is the seal script.

This is a courtyard with three entrances.

Walking into the quaint old house, she looked at everything inside.

The place is cleaned regularly, so it doesn't look shabby. On the contrary, because the banquet is held here, there are many red paper lanterns inside, making it look very festive.

Chef Zhang and other chefs are already preparing the banquet.

The richest man in South City held a banquet and invited all the well-known figures. Safety issues at the banquet came first.

Qin Jiu and the other three stayed by Chi Jiujiu's side closely.

Brother Long brought a group of bodyguards to protect Gong Hong's safety.

Brother Xu was responsible for commanding two teams, patrolling inside and outside the house respectively.

The time came to six o'clock in the evening.

The guests came to the old house of the Gong family carrying gifts, and luxury cars were parked nearby.

Some paparazzi from the entertainment industry saw this and wanted to step forward to take some pictures, but they were dragged away for a long distance by the bodyguard team led by Brother Xu.

Chi Jiujiu sat in the front yard to welcome the guests.

"Grandpa Hua, you are here. You look so energetic!"

Huasheng was wearing a white robe at this time, giving him the look of an immortal old doctor.

Not just Washington.

For some reason, the guests who just came in were all dressed in ancient style.

Men can either wear Tang suits or long black coats.

Most ladies wear Hanfu.

Few guests were seen wearing modern clothing.

Is it to cater to the scenery of the old house?

Her outfit today was also a Tang-style Hanfu with a chest-length skirt. Her hair was combed into a bun by a costume stylist, and a flower ornament was placed between her eyebrows.

After completing the overall look, she was amazed by herself.

Hua Sheng looked at Chi Jiujiu in ancient costume, stroked his long white beard and commented, "Jiujiu girl looks very elegant today, like a rich lady from ancient times, haha."

The guests behind came one after another.

Chi Jiujiu greeted everyone with a smile, while Butler He and a bodyguard stood by, registering and placing the gifts brought by the guests.

"Welcome Grandpa Li, please come in."

"Welcome Grandpa Zhang, please come in."

After welcoming the guests for half an hour, Chi Jiujiu was surprised for a second when she saw a pair of familiar peach blossom eyes. "Welcome Master Meng, Young Master Meng, please come in."

The owner of the pair of peach blossom eyes that look so affectionate on dogs changed into a black Tang suit today.

The slightly long shawl on the man's head covered part of his forehead, reducing the ruffian look on his face. His eyebrows were sharp, his nose was narrow and high, and his lips were petal-shaped, neither thin nor thick.

The whole person looks.

A little more elegant.

He has a good-looking face, but unfortunately he is too familiar.

When Meng Yudong saw Chi Jiujiu, he was stunned for two seconds, and then a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Jiujiu, so you are the eldest daughter of the Gong family. It was so hard for me to find you."

Chi Jiujiu, "Haha, I didn't expect you to be the third young master of the Meng family."

"Miss Gong knows my son?" The head of the Meng family also interjected at this time, with a bright smile on his face.

Chi Jiujiu, "We met once."

Meng Yudong suddenly came close to Chi Jiujiu. When they were five centimeters apart, his gaze lingered on the woman's face for a few seconds. "Jiujiu looks really good today. However, we have met more than once. We have met——"

"Xiaodong is gone, don't delay Miss Gong."

Before Meng Yudong could finish his words, the head of the Meng family dragged Meng Yudong away.

Chi Jiujiu smiled.

Continue to welcome the next guests.

By seven o'clock in the evening, all the people who received the invitations had arrived.
