After sorting out the courseware she would need for tomorrow, Xu Yihuan grabbed her right hand just as she was about to go home from get off work.
"Shu Shu, are you okay tonight?"
Xu Yihuan was her college classmate and roommate. After graduation, the two stayed at the school to teach together, and their relationship was considered close.
"It's nothing, what's wrong?"
"It's like this, Shu Shu. I have a blind date tonight, but my aunt gave me an invitation yesterday and asked me to attend the banquet on her behalf, but I really can't spare the time. Can you go there for me?"
Xu Yihuan's parents worked in an advertising company and were relatively well-known in Kyoto. Xu's mother was a well-planned person. As soon as Xu Yihuan graduated from college, she arranged various blind dates for her, hoping that she would find a rich husband while she was young and beautiful. Squeeze into high society.
Xu Yihuan has been a good girl since she was a child, so she obeys her parents' words.
"Yi Huan, I've never been to a banquet. I can't do it." Song Shishu waved her hand and refused without thinking.
The people attending the banquet were all upper-class people, but she was just a working-class person. It would be a shame for her to go there.
"Shu Shu, I really can't find anyone else, can you just help me?" Xu Yihuan took her arm and started acting coquettishly.
"This banquet is attended by company bosses discussing cooperation. Just go over and help me go through the motions. Please..."
Xu Yihuan was the best at using both soft and hard tactics, so Song Shishu had no choice but to agree.
"Then it's agreed, I'll go through the formalities and leave."
Hearing her promise, Xu Yihuan was extremely excited: "Don't worry, Shu Shu, just go through the formalities and stay until the banquet starts and then you can leave."
"When I have a rest this week, I'll treat you to dinner to express my sincere gratitude."
Hearing this, Song Shishu smiled lightly and said nothing, raised his hand to take the invitation she handed over before leaving.
Back when she was in college, Xu Yihuan helped her a lot. Even if she didn't want to go anymore, she would still go because of the love she had before.
The banquet was held at the Kyoto Hotel. After coming out of school, Song Shishu took a taxi there.
It was already seven o'clock in the evening when we arrived.
When Song Shishu got out of the taxi, he saw many women wearing evening dresses, elegant and beautiful walking into the banquet hall.
She came in a hurry, wearing a simple white T-shirt and jeans. Because the weather was too hot, her long hair was tied up.
Her appearance was obviously out of place here, and it attracted many people to watch.
But Song Shishu didn't care at all. She just wanted to go in and have a formality and then leave.
After checking the invitation, she walked in.
This was the first time Song Shishu came to the Kyoto Hotel. Looking at the banquet hall where people were drinking and drinking, she couldn't help feeling a little emotional. It was indeed a famous seven-star hotel in Kyoto. It was so luxurious!
After walking around the banquet hall, she took the dessert and sat on a chair in the corner to taste it slowly.
For her, this kind of banquet has no other benefits besides eating good food.
But one thing to say, the desserts here do taste much better than outside!
Adhering to the good habit of not wasting anything, Song Shishu took a lot of delicious food. She finally came to the big hotel, so naturally she wanted to eat to her heart's content!
Soon, the banquet officially started, and Song Shishu was full.
Just as she was about to run away, a familiar voice came to her ears from far away: "Aunt Shushu, wait a moment."
Song Shishu paused and turned around to see Qin Huaixi walking towards him.
Qin Huaixi is Xu Yihuan's cousin. He is in the same university as her and only one class below her.
At that time, he often gave Xu Yihuan things, so the two of them became familiar with each other.
"Huaixi, why are you here?" Song Shishu asked in surprise.
Qin Huaixi stood still in front of her and Wen Run explained: "I have nothing to do at home. I received the invitation and wanted to come over and have a look. I didn't expect to meet you here."
When he talked about the latter part, a blush appeared on his face.
Song Shishu didn't notice anything strange about him. She tucked the strands of hair behind her ears and said with a smile, "I'm here for your cousin to go through the motions. She has a blind date today and she can't make it."
She originally wanted to leave, but Qin Huaixi kept asking her about work matters, so she sat down and talked with him.
The two of them were chatting and laughing, which was very lively.
While Song Shishu was listening with great interest, the originally noisy banquet hall suddenly became quiet, and many people hurried forward to watch.
Seeing this, there was a trace of curiosity in her eyes.
"Huai Xi, who is here? Why is it so grand?"
Song Shishu looked at the excitement, but only saw a group of dark people. To make these people so excited must be a big deal!
"It's the eldest young master of the Fu family. He went abroad for further study two years ago. Now that he's back, the scene will naturally be bigger. Today's banquet is also specially prepared." Qin Huaixi explained with a gentle face.
The Qin family is considered a wealthy family in Kyoto, so it is not unusual to know these things.
Song Shishu was not interested in the affairs of the upper class, so he naturally had no idea who the young master of the Fu family was.
But... the eldest son of the Fu family has the same surname as her nominal husband.
Yo ho.
What a coincidence.
Fu Jingzhan walked into the banquet hall in a black suit. His angular handsome face seemed gentle, but it contained a sharp chill.
The guests watching the excitement around him couldn't help but trembled at the aura around him.
As expected of the Crown Prince of the Fu family, this momentum is quite impressive!
Fu Jingzhan hates attending banquets, but during the two years since he was in coma, the Fu family has told the outside world that he went abroad for further study. Now that he wants to return to Kyoto and establish his authority, he must show up.
The organizer of this banquet is grandma's old friend, and the guests are all seasoned people who hang out in shopping malls, so it is perfect for him to come here for a formality.
"Mr. Fu, it's been a long time no see."
"Mr. Fu, you have worked hard to study abroad for two years..."
Fu Jingzhan was surrounded by CEOs from various companies, and he only nodded slightly in response to their overtures.
Surrounded by everyone, he sat in the seat prepared by the organizer and waited quietly for the banquet to end.
At this time, Song Shishu also felt bored, so he was going to go home and rest.
"Huai Xi, I have to go to work tomorrow, so I'm going home first. We'll talk next time when we have a chance." She stood up and picked up the handbag she had put aside at the right time.
Although Qin Huaixi felt reluctant to let go, he could not force her to stay.
"Okay, then Aunt Shushu, I'll take you out. It's getting late now and I don't worry."
Song Shishu Wan couldn't refuse, so she had no choice but to agree: "Okay, thank you."
Fu Jingzhan was closing his eyes to rest, but his assistant Cheng Mo suddenly came to his ear and said respectfully: "Mr. Fu, I see Madam."
He is Fu Jingzhan's confidant and the only one who knows about his private affairs.
As soon as these words came out, Fu Jingzhan opened his eyes and followed Cheng Mo's gaze.
