After the poor daughter was exposed: bigwigs from all walks of life went crazy

According to common sense, business figures like Song Geng and Luo Yu could not even attend the dinner party hosted by Rong Xiuyun and the leadership team of Nanhe Province.

But Luo Yu was too thick-skinned. As soon as the performance was over, she dragged her son Song Huaizhi and tried every means to get in front of Rong Xiuyun.

"Teacher Rong, I have heard of your great name for a long time, and today I am finally lucky enough to meet you."

Luo Yu showed a flattering smile on his face and quickly pulled the impatient Song Huaizhi to his side.

Rong Xiuyun glanced at the two of them indifferently. She was well-known in the circle for her aloof and arrogant temper. Except for her husband and the students she liked, she would never show any enthusiasm, let alone such a shameless person who fawned on others.

Several provincial leaders who were originally standing next to Rong Xiuyun and talking looked at Luo Yu with dissatisfaction, wondering where this tactless guy came from, trying to curry favor with people without considering the occasion.

Seeing that she ignored him, Luo Yu's smile froze. After feeling the unfriendly gazes around him, he quickly explained, "This is my son Song Huaizhi, and he is also one of the heirs identified by the old man of the Song family in Beijing."

As Luo Yu expected, everyone stopped in their tracks after hearing the words "Song Family of the Capital" and looked at Song Huaizhi next to her in surprise.

Those who have reached the current leadership positions here are all shrewd people, and they are well aware of the pyramid structure of the domestic circle.

The Song family in Beijing not only represents the status of the head of the four families, but also the leading representative in high-tech fields such as energy exploration and mining, as well as the Institute of Mathematics of the Academia Sinica. The most important thing is that the old man of the Song family now holds a position in the army, which is incredible...

His identity as the heir to the Song family in Beijing was enough to earn him the respect of all of them.

After glancing around and noticing that the gazes around him had changed from dissatisfaction and doubt to surprise and shock, Song Huaizhi raised his chin slightly with pride.

Rong Xiuyun's expression changed slightly. The news that the old man of the Song family had recognized a new heir had indeed spread in their circle a long time ago. Unexpectedly, they would encounter it in Zheng City.

So Rong Xiuyun looked at the two of them seriously and thought that Old Man Song was really getting worse and worse over the years. Why did he choose such a person?

In her opinion, he was far inferior to Song Yun. Although the former was not a good person and had formed a supercar club, at least he was very careful in what he said and did in front of their elders, and his appearance was impeccable, so he could be presentable no matter what.

It's a pity that she and Lao Xue are DINKs, and they won't have a granddaughter to take care of them when they get old. Otherwise, she would really like to have Song Yun as her grandson-in-law.

Noticing the looks from Rong Xiuyun and Xue Bo, Song Huaizhi finally realized what was happening and slowly said hello, "Hello, Teacher Rong."

"Is there anything wrong?" Rong Xiuyun asked after nodding slightly.

"It's a coincidence that we both live in Zheng City, so I wanted to treat you to a meal." Seeing that his son's identity worked, Luo Yu spoke more confidently.

Upon hearing the voice, Rong Xiuyun waved her hand and walked out of the studio with Xue Bo and several other provincial leaders beside her.

"The provincial party secretary is organizing a party tonight. You can all come to Yuchu Restaurant."

Just when Luo Yu was confused, the young assistant following behind Rong Xiuyun came forward and whispered instructions.

Song Geng, who had just squeezed through the crowd, suddenly brightened up when he heard these words.

That was Lu Yongfeng, the provincial party secretary! Since he opened a branch in Zhengzhou, he has been trying to find ways to get in touch with the people above him.

If I can become familiar with him at this dinner party today, I will be able to have a say in Zheng City circles in the future.

So Song Geng and his wife suppressed their excitement and rushed to Yuchu Restaurant.

There were a total of twenty seats at the round table. Rong Xiuyun sat at the main seat, with Xue Bo and Lu Yongfeng sitting on either side.

Also present were Chu Chang, the provincial procuratorate's chief prosecutor, and the top two leaders of other bureaus.

As soon as Song Huaizhi sat down, he noticed a gaze. He looked up and made direct eye contact with Lu Bai, who was sitting next to Lu Yongfeng.

In the past, Song Huaizhi had never had much personal experience of the saying that officials suppress businessmen.

But until today, when he saw his father, Song Geng, who was quite influential in the Beijing business circle, groveling and pouring wine to toast him, and sprinkling out flattery as if it were free, he felt quite uncomfortable.

"Secretary Lu is really a good parent. He became a student of Teacher Xue when he was just in high school. I heard that he was recommended as a physics student. He is really good at both academics and hobbies."

"Chief Prosecutor Chu, I also watched your daughter's hosting today. She was no less impressive than those professional hosts..."

The self-esteem that Song Huaizhi had just built up because of his status as the heir of the Song family was shattered in an instant.

Shamefully, all of this was seen by his love rival Lu Bai.

Because this dinner was held in the name of a teacher appreciation banquet, Lu Bai, Xue Bo's disciple, also attended.

What puzzled everyone was why they didn’t see the girl singing on the stage?

Lu Bai looked at the empty seat reserved beside him, secretly expecting her to appear.

"That kid probably won't come tonight." Xue Bo said with a laugh after taking a look at Lu Bai's eager look.

Everyone nodded when they heard this and stopped asking questions. Lu Yongfeng looked at his son calmly.

On Lu Bai's birthday, he had seen the girl once at home. Through some details, Lu Yongfeng guessed that Shen Shu's family background was definitely not simple.

Thinking of Rong Xiuyun's admiring look towards Shen Shu during the performance, Lu Yongfeng took the initiative to praise her: "I've seen that kid before, and his manner of speaking is calm and steady, which doesn't seem to be the case at his age."

When the topic of Shen Shu came up, Luo Yu became excited. She was usually respected and praised in the wives' circle, but today she suddenly became a marginal figure with no say, so she kept looking for an opportunity to speak and show off.

"In Beijing, our two families were neighbors before. Xiao Shu and Huai Zhi were childhood sweethearts. Alas, if something hadn't happened to the Shen family..."

When he heard the words "childhood sweetheart", Lu Bai's eyes flickered slightly.

As Luo Yu spoke, he pretended to be sentimental and regretful. His hesitant words immediately aroused the curiosity of many people present.

Rong Xiuyun looked at Luo Yu expressionlessly, wondering in her heart whether Shen Shu would agree to become his disciple this time.

Seeing Rong Xiuyun's nonchalant look, Luo Yu's eyes suddenly turned. He thought that Shen Shu had not yet officially become his disciple, and that she was not present tonight, so it was very likely that Rong Xiuyun did not choose her.

Luo Yu originally came from a business background and had never paid much attention to vocal music, so she had no idea how talented Shen Shu was. But she was very clear about one thing: Rong Xiuyun had been looking for a successor for many years...

If she could step up and completely mess up the apprenticeship plan and recommend a better student, she would not only satisfy Rong Xiuyun's wishes, but also be able to show off in front of everyone.
