Chapter 161 Mrs. Chang Hosts a Banquet
The invitation is signed by Chang Xin's wife, Mrs. Chang. I met her once before, when she was trying to persuade the Fu family to cooperate.
It's clear that everything she does is based on Chang Xin's wishes. This time, she suddenly sent me an invitation to the Xu family's welcome banquet.
It seems Xu Hongye really intends to cooperate with the Fu family; otherwise, he wouldn't have had Madam Chang deliver this invitation. Is he afraid I won't go?
However, this invitation not only invited me, but also Ge Zeyu. I immediately thought of the conversation between Liu Mei and Bian Jiahui.
Although I didn't hear what they specifically discussed, it was clear that they wanted to harm Ge Zeyu.
"I'm afraid this banquet is aimed at us. On the surface, it's a welcome party for Xu Hongye, but in reality, it's meant to make things difficult for the two of us."
After I finished speaking, I turned to look at him, wondering what Ge Zeyu's opinion was.
He pondered for a few seconds, and after a while, he seemed to have made up his mind. "No matter what, we have to go to this banquet. Since everyone already knows that Xu Qing and I are cooperating, if I don't go, it will make people suspect that there is a problem with our cooperation."
"Moreover, Madam Chang actually invited you. After all, she is the wife of the second-in-command and has always been quite prestigious in the wives' circle. If you don't go, I'm afraid she might target you."
After saying that, Ge Zeyu chuckled again, took the invitation from my hand, glanced at it, and casually tossed it aside. "But don't worry, my mother should have received the invitation as well. With her protecting you, this Madam Chang won't dare to do anything."
Hearing him say that reassured me a lot. If Bian Jiahui wasn't crazy, she probably wouldn't have made a move at a banquet like this.
Trying to scheme against Ge Zeyu at such a banquet would only make Madam Chang lose face.
I didn't expect that Xu Hongye's welcome banquet, which was jointly hosted by the Chang and Xu families, would make it seem like they valued him very much.
After leaving the company, I returned to my mother's place. As soon as I entered, I saw several broken vases on the floor. She was sitting on the sofa next to me with her brows furrowed.
I walked around the broken glass and rushed over to ask her what was wrong.
"You don't need to satisfy me anymore. I already know about your father's situation. Several shareholders from various companies have called me today. These people used to think I was useless and never thought of contacting me. Now that their companies are in crisis, they want me to solve their problems."
Her tone carried a hint of impatience, as well as a sense of world-weariness and detachment. The company's shareholders had a long-standing relationship with my mother, and many of them had watched her grow up.
Calling my mom to solve this problem at this time is actually putting pressure on me. This project is a bottomless pit, and most companies simply don't have the financial resources to support it.
The Fu family has it, but their only condition is the company I own. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but say sarcastically, "I didn't realize before that they were so united."
My mother took my hand, patted it gently, and sighed softly, "Don't worry, Mom won't let you mortgage the company to the Fu family. The fact that they value your company so much only shows how valuable it is."
Seeing her sad face, I felt a little sorry for her. After all, the company was founded by my grandfather, and it was a great source of pride for my mother.
"Mom, you really..." Before I could finish my sentence, my mother seemed to have already guessed what I was going to say. She nodded at me and said firmly, "I've thought it through."
"Don't take out any of the financial products I gave you. Even if your father and I share the debt, we'll figure out a solution later."
I didn't expect my mom to be so adamant about this. She seems to be planning to drag it out until the end and share the debt with my dad, thus extricating me from the situation.
But I didn't want to see my mother suffer over this, so I told her my whole plan: "This matter hasn't come to this point yet. I heard that my father has borrowed a lot of money from loan sharks and is driven to the brink of desperation. If he wants to live, he'll have to divorce you. Then we can buy back my grandfather's company from him and kick him out completely."
I know this is not an easy thing to do, but once I'm pushed to a certain point, my dad will have to give in, even if he doesn't want to.
The Fu family only sees Bian Jiahui as a pawn, and judging from the current situation, Li Yaqin may not really like my father. Now that they have money, they can share the wealth, but once my father has a problem, the mother and daughter may kick him aside.
While chatting with my mom, I received some unexpected news: the Xu family's banquet this time not only invited people from the business circle, but also my mom.
Since my mom and dad's relationship ran into problems, my mom has gradually stopped paying attention to the wives' circle. Because the relationship that everyone used to envy has suddenly turned into a disgusting poison, my mom definitely doesn't have the mood to deal with those people's sarcasm.
She hasn't been active in the industry for so long that many people have gradually forgotten about her. I find it a bit strange that Mrs. Chang specially invited her this time.
I tentatively asked her for her thoughts and opinions, "Mom, are you going?"
"Since Madam Chang invited me, it wouldn't be right to refuse. I'll go with your Aunt Su Qing, and we can also get something done there."
My mother didn't tell me what I was going to do, but her attitude was exceptionally firm, so I didn't say anything to stop her.
On the day of the banquet, my mother and I got into Aunt Su Qing's car. As always, Aunt Su Qing praised Ge Zeyu and me, saying that we looked like a perfect match.
The car was stable. Aunt Su Qing stopped teasing us, her eyes flickered slightly, and she solemnly instructed Ge Zeyu, "There are many people attending the banquet today. You need to take good care of Wanwan. Otherwise, what if someone else snatches such a beautiful person away?"
Aunt Su Qing's words made me feel like she knew something inside.
At the entrance of the banquet hall, Mrs. Chang personally came out to greet Aunt Su Qing. "Mrs. Ge, we've been waiting for you! Mrs. Liu and the others were just asking me if you would do me the honor of attending today!"
"Since you invited me, of course I'll come." Aunt Su Qing said with a smile, then changed the subject, "Besides, Mrs. Chang has been enjoying great success lately, and I'm afraid that if I don't show my face, the ladies won't recognize me."
Aunt Su Qing's pointed remark instantly froze the smiles of all the ladies present.
