I am a big shot, a real daughter, I don’t care!

Looking at the scene of their affectionate whispers, the others exchanged glances.

Lu Qi's gaze met his son's for a moment, and there was a dark and calculated look in the eyes of both father and son.

Shen Ying noticed the ulterior motives of each family and glanced sideways at Mr. Xie.

Lu Xing lowered his head and said, "You and Mr. Xie will go first later."

Shen Ying nodded without objection.

"Grandpa," Lu Yu stood up and came over to toast, then whispered in Old Lu's ear, "I met a friend from Independent Continent some time ago. He has a place in the field of scientific research. I want to meet you and discuss some cooperation with our Lu family."

Lu Yu's voice was not loud, and due to the low voices of people around him, only the people next to him could hear some of the sound.

Shen Ying heard it clearly.

When Mr. Lu heard this, he was stunned for a moment and looked towards Lu Xing, saying, "Grandpa doesn't object to you making friends, but you still have to be careful about being deceived."

"Grandpa should have heard of the Xie family from the Independent Continent," Lu Yu said in a low voice, "His teacher is Academician Xie."

Mr. Lu had naturally heard of the Xie family from the Independent Continent, who held absolute authority in the field of scientific research.

But Lu Yu actually had secret dealings with such a person behind his back. It was either because he was very capable or because the other party saw other values in Lu Yu.

From Mr. Lu's perspective, it should be the latter.

Only Lu Yu felt that it was mutually beneficial.

"Since they are your friends, just call them over." Mr. Lu had his own considerations.

It doesn't hurt to meet him.

It would also be good for Lu Xing to see who the other party is.

Qi Xiao's arrival made several official leaders frown.

This guy looks handsome, but what happened to his injury?

Qi Xiao recovered somewhat after treatment, but the external injuries still affected his image, especially the bruises of varying sizes on his face.

Shen Ying was waiting for him.

If she hadn't found out that Qi Xiao was planning to do something with Mr. Lu's banquet, she wouldn't have come just based on what Mr. Lu said.

Lu Xing's cold eyes swept over and he picked up some of Shen Ying's favorite dishes, as if he didn't take Qi Xiao seriously. He glanced at his phone and said to Shen Ying, "My people are ready."

"Let grandpa go first," Shen Ying paused, "We must ensure grandpa's safety."

Lu Xing was stunned for a moment, then his heart softened, and his eyes softened a lot, "You want to come with me? Are you worried about me?"

"..." Shen Ying gave him a playful look, "Second Master Lu, don't think too much."

Before Lu Xing could even put on a smile, it wilted again.

"Shen Ying," Madam Lu, who was sitting at the next table, turned around and called out to her, smiling. "I see you've almost finished your meal. I didn't get to talk to you last time at the restaurant. How about we sit over there and chat for a while? The sisters at home all want to get to know you!"

The several daughters of the Lu family who were sitting at the same table with the eldest young master's wife all cast curious glances at Shen Ying. Some looked at him carefully, while others suppressed their contempt and disdain.

In short, no sight was friendly.

Logically speaking, being able to get closer to my sisters at home is a good opportunity.

But Shen Ying didn't like dealing with this kind of situation, nor did she need to agree with these rich ladies and wives: "I'm not full."

He rejected Madam Lu with just a few simple words.

The gentle smile on Madam Lu's face was a little stiff, and she smiled and said, "It's okay, we can wait for you."

"Okay, then you guys go wait over there."

Whether she wants to go or not is her own business.

Madam Lu and the daughters of the Lu family thought that Shen Ying would not dare to lie to them, and they also felt that Shen Ying really wanted to get close to them.

After all, among so many people present, there was no telling how many wealthy wives and daughters were lining up to interact with the women of the Lu family.

The women of the Lu family always have an air of superiority.

Lu Xing glanced back and asked, "Are you going?"

Shen Ying did not respond, but looked at Qi Xiao who was approaching. He was chatting and laughing with Mr. Lu, and was suddenly surrounded by Lu Qi and his men.

I wonder how many people are interested in the name of the Xie family of Independent Continent.

"I heard that the young Dr. Xie died of poison gas. I wonder if this is true or not?" Lu Zhan said bluntly.

The voice was light, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.

Xie Ying's reputation was even greater than Xie Dan's at one point in time!

Lu Xing frowned his beautiful eyebrows.

Lu Zhan chose this time to ask such a sensitive question, intending to ruin the old man's banquet.

As soon as Lu Zhan spoke, the others fell silent, some even starting to watch the show.

Lu Yu gritted his teeth and forced a smile: "Brother, today is Grandpa's birthday, let's not talk about these topics."

"Mr. Qi started talking about scientific research. I just happened to think of this influential matter. Since it is inconvenient to talk about it, let's celebrate grandpa's birthday today. Don't bring up any business topics that will ruin the atmosphere of the birthday party." Lu Zhan said slowly.

Hearing this, Lu Yu gritted his teeth, and the smile on his face disappeared. "Discussing scientific research is different from discussing the deceased. Isn't it a great joy for us to promote friendly exchanges between Country Z and the Independent Continent?"

The younger generations were fighting secretly, while the elders were watching quietly.

Occasionally add a word.

The atmosphere was so subtly stiff that it was brewing a low-pressure resentment.

Lu Xing had quietly asked someone to lead Mr. Xie away from the back. Mr. Xie used the excuse of going to the bathroom to leave the table, and Lu Xing's people immediately protected him from the scene.

The arguing among the people made Mr. Lu feel annoyed. "Okay, no need to argue anymore. If Mr. Qi doesn't mind, you can sit down and have dinner with everyone."

Qi Xiao smiled, "Then I will respectfully obey your command."

His evil gaze fell squarely on Shen Ying's side, and Shen Ying looked at him indifferently.

It seems that the things that happened in Country D never existed at all.

After Qi Xiao sat down at the next table, he narrowed his eyes and stared at Lu Shenying's profile, sneering in his heart.

This woman pretends to be serious.

However, thinking about this situation, Qi Xiao could understand why Shen Ying pretended not to know him.

The banquet is over.

Lu Xing held Shen Ying's hand and came to say goodbye to Mr. Lu. Although Mr. Lu was reluctant to let them go, he still asked them to be careful on the way back.

"Is the person gone?"

Dark corner.

Lu Zhan put out the cigarette in his hand and asked the person who was approaching in a cold voice.

"Yes, we're ready. However, it seems the Third Young Master is also about to take action."

"Don't worry, the three of us have all shown some superficial sense of cooperation," Lu Zhan said coldly, "The old man's hosting of this banquet can be regarded as a direct push towards the true death of Lu Xing and Shen Ying."

So stupid.

A hint of mockery flashed across Lu Zhan's cold eyes.

Those who heard this felt a little nervous.

Once the three forces have dealt with Lu Xing, it will be time for them to truly compete.

The capital city is going to be in turmoil again.

Lu Xing brought Shen Ying out and let her take another car, while he alone bore the pursuit from three parties.
