So the old man and the young man avoided the crowd, hid in this corner, and quietly began to show off the cake, then the nuts, and then the juice.

Zhou Muchuan happened to see this scene when he turned the corner.

She was very absorbed in eating. She sat there very well-behavedly, biting the cake attentively. She had a satisfied smile on her face and spoke to the old lady beside her from time to time. She looked simple and relaxed.

He hadn't seen Xu Yansang like this for a long time. His impression seemed to be that she had only shown this expression in front of him before marriage. After marriage, she became taciturn and smiled reluctantly every day, which made him more and more bored.

Zhou Muchuan couldn't explain how he felt in his heart. It was as if he was washed by a cup of warm water, which gave him an indescribable warmth.

Just then, a cheerful voice came from not far away, "Yan Sang!"

Then two figures walked towards Xu Yansang.

Xu Yansang turned around and saw them, the smile on her face became even brighter, and she stood up to greet them.

She is like a flower that has bloomed to its most beautiful form. It seems that since her divorce, she has smiled more and more. She has become serious and relaxed in front of her friends, at work, and in life.

Zhou Muchuan didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit that Xu Yansang seemed to be in much better condition after the divorce.

Her smile, her relaxation, her enjoyment and satisfaction were not what she had experienced in their two-year marriage.

Did those two years of marriage make her so unhappy?

Zhou Muchuan didn't know why, but he felt a little annoyed. He glanced coldly at Xu Yansang who was chatting and laughing with her friend, then turned around and left without any reluctance.

When Xu Yansang saw Zhao Zhao and Chen Ranxing in this situation, it was like seeing her relatives. She pulled them to sit next to Grandma Fu, handed them a small cake and said, "Eat something first while there are not many people around."

She knew her two bad friends very well and knew that they definitely had not eaten anything when they got up in the morning.

When Chen Ranxing and Zhao Zhao saw Grandma Fu, they suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. They took the cake very obediently and ate it bite by bite. They didn't dare to make jokes anymore.

Grandma Fu said with a smile, "Eat more, eat more, don't be hungry."

Chen Ranxing and Zhao Zhao immediately went to get the cakes, quickened their pace, and stuffed them into their mouths in big mouthfuls.

Seeing this, Grandma Fu hurriedly said, "Eat slowly, don't choke. Oh, you young people, you didn't know how to take care of your stomach when you were young, you will suffer when you are old!"

Chen Ranxing and Zhao Zhao immediately put down the cakes again and swallowed the cream cakes in their mouths with distorted expressions.

I cried. Why didn’t I check the situation and was pulled over by Yansang?

They should have thought of it earlier. What kind of identity does Yan Sang have to be able to come in with an invitation? It must have been brought in by Grandma Fu!

They actually bumped into her like idiots... Woo woo woo, Grandma Fu is so scary, they don’t want to make the date!

Grandma Fu was still smiling. She served them both juice without any airs and said lovingly, "Drink some water to clear your throat. It's very uncomfortable to choke."

As a veteran who has lived for several decades, how could Grandma Fu not notice that Zhao Zhao and Chen Ranxing were being reserved in front of her.

But on the one hand, she felt that they were Yansang's friends. She respected Yansang, so naturally she had to respect her friends. On the other hand, she thought that they were afraid of her because they didn't understand her. If they got to know her more, they would understand each other.

Since Yansang has become her granddaughter-in-law, of course she has to love her granddaughter-in-law and take good care of the two children.

With Grandma Fu's friendly attitude, Chen Ranxing and Zhao Zhao finally relaxed a little. It really couldn't be blamed on them for being useless. The mysterious identity of the Fu family would not be feared by anyone.

If you accidentally make the boss unhappy, I'm afraid the whole family will have to pay the price.

They have to be trembling with fear!

But Grandma Fu was so approachable that even though Chen Ranxing and Zhao Zhao tried their best to keep their distance, they soon became close friends.

After a while, Xu Yansang's colleagues from the company also came over. These people didn't know Grandma Fu at all, so when they saw such a delicate old lady, they felt longing and envy. For a moment, this little corner was full of laughter and play, and it seemed quite lively.

Qin Sisi arrived late just before the banquet was about to begin. She dressed herself up very carefully today. The dress she wore was Xiangjia's high-end couture dress from last year. Her hair was curled into flaxen waves, she had a simple hairstyle, and wore an exquisite crown.

When she appeared at the door, many people were already looking at her and exclaiming in amazement.

She is like a pure fairy who has accidentally entered the human world, so beautiful.

When Qin Sisi entered the room, she looked at Wu Zhendong, then shyly looked away and walked in pretending not to know him.

Wu Zhendong suddenly became distracted and didn't dare let his father next to him see it, so he quickly lowered his head to cover it.

But who is Wu Xuejiu? To be able to reach this level in politics, he must have a ruthless eye for people. He saw through Qin Sisi's thoughts at a glance, frowned, and asked Wu Zhendong, "Is this the woman who was photographed being intimate with you?"

Wu Zhendong said quickly, "Dad, she was implicated by me..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Wu Xuejiu's stern voice, "Do you want to listen to what nonsense you are talking about? Who do you think you are? A love-struck idiot? You can tell at a glance that woman is very scheming. Stay away from her from now on!"

Wu Zhendong was very reluctant. Sisi was so kind and innocent, how could her father understand her goodness?

But he didn't dare to contradict his father, so he responded reluctantly.

Wu Xuejiu got angry just looking at his appearance, what a useless thing!

On the other side, Qin Sisi walked into the banquet, looking like a socialite from upper class society, and moved gracefully and beautifully towards the center of the banquet.

The noble old lady must be in the most eye-catching place among the crowd, and perhaps she is now surrounded by people who are trying to please her.

But it doesn't matter, she believes that with her abilities, she will definitely be able to squeeze to the front and be noticed by the old lady.

As long as she could catch the old lady's eye and acted well, she would definitely like her.

Maybe he would even adopt her as his granddaughter on the spot.

The more Qin Sisi thought about it, the more excited she became. She was almost driven crazy these days. Ever since she and Wu Zhendong were photographed, her status in the Zhou family has been neither good nor bad.

Zhao Jiali mocked her for being fickle every day. At first, Zhou Ruotang spoke up for her, but later, she didn't know whether she really believed Zhao Jiali or what, and she didn't say a word for her at all, causing her to be scolded by Zhao Jiali every time.

As for Zhou Muchuan, he said he was busy with company matters and hadn't been home for two or three days. God knows if he was really busy or just disliked her!

She was shameless and finally got Wu Zhendong to help her get an invitation letter. Today was her day to turn things around. As long as she could take down the old lady, all problems would be solved.

She will become the Qin Sisi who is the center of attention again. Why would Xu Yansang compete with her for Zhou Muchuan?

Qin Sisi walked towards the center of the crowd step by step with a dreamy smile on her face.

She was dressed too formally today and attracted a lot of attention. Zhou Ruotang and Xia Yuyan who were not far away also noticed this scene.

"Why is Sister Sisi here?" Zhou Ruotang frowned.

She received two invitations in total, one for her brother, who came with her mother, and the other for her, who came with Xia Yuyan.

How did Qin Sisi get in without an invitation? What was she doing here?

Zhou Ruotang was a little unhappy, but he still held his temper, strode over, and called Qin Sisi, "Sister-in-law, why are you here?"

When they heard the word "sister-in-law", the young talents who had surrounded Qin Sisi immediately retreated. Qin Sisi secretly blamed Zhou Ruotang in her heart, but had a gentle smile on her face.

"Ruotang, you are here too? My former roommate invited me here. She said she was at a party and had nothing to do, so she asked me to come and keep her company."

At this point, Qin Sisi shrugged and said helplessly, "It's a pity that she was dazzled by the handsome guy as soon as she entered the door. I don't know where she has gone now."

This was an excuse Qin Sisi had thought of a long time ago. She would definitely not escape the Zhou family's sight when she came here, and she couldn't let the Zhou family find out what she was thinking, so she had thought of an excuse long ago.

Zhou Ruotang looked at her doubtfully, "Your roommate? You have such an amazing roommate?"

It’s not that she looks down on Qin Sisi, it’s just that Qin Sisi’s family conditions are not good, how can she be friends with the rich second generation?

Qin Sisi was not angry at being looked down upon by Zhou Ruotang. She smiled and said, "Well, we had a good relationship before. We lived in the same dormitory together. She is also a very nice person. I will introduce her to you some other day."

Zhou Ruotang heard this and reluctantly dispelled his doubts, and asked again, "So where were you planning to go just now?"

Qin Sisi did not hide anything and pointed to the center of the crowd, "I heard there is a distinguished guest over there, I want to go over and see some of his experiences!"

"Distinguished guest? Could it be that old lady Fu?" Xia Yuyan suddenly interrupted and asked.

She was close to Wu Zhendong and knew more about Old Lady Fu's affairs. She heard that the capital was from abroad and was very powerful. As soon as it landed in North City, it quickly acquired many companies with its strong hands.

So when she heard the word distinguished guest, the first person she thought of was Old Madam Fu.

He immediately pulled Zhou Ruotang and said excitedly, "Ruotang, let's go over too!"

Qin Sisi was a little annoyed. If she had known they would follow her, she would not have mentioned Old Madam Fu. But now, with two more little followers, if she wanted to please Old Madam Fu, she would not be able to escape Zhou Ruotang's eyes.

Fortunately, Zhou Ruotang is stupid and should not be able to see her purpose.

Thinking of this, Qin Sisi felt relieved again.

Several people walked towards the center of the crowd, each with their own thoughts.

But I didn't expect that after I finally squeezed in, I only saw a musician playing the guitar.

Zhou Ruotang frowned and said unhappily, "There is no such thing as an old lady. Why would so many people guard a guy who plays guitar? You must be crazy!"

Xia Yuyan was also a little disappointed. "I guess they think he's handsome. What a bunch of ignorant people. Is this kind of stuff worth bothering with?"

Although Qin Sisi didn't say anything, she felt a little disappointed. She looked around but didn't find any place that looked like the old lady.

Hasn't that old lady entered yet?

Yes, it is possible. How could such an important guest come to the banquet early like ordinary people? He must be a heavyweight guest and appear at the most eye-catching time of the whole venue.

On the other side, Grandma Fu went to the bathroom and met Grandpa Wu when she came back.

Mr. Wu just turned seventy this year. He looked very energetic. When he saw Grandma Fu, he was a little excited and surprised. His voice was choked with sobs, and he called out respectfully, "Madam!"

If there were other people here at this moment, they would definitely be very shocked, because Mr. Wu is a well-known figure in North City, and there are not many people who can talk to him seriously. However, facing this old lady with gray hair, his attitude is humble.

Grandma Fu smiled and said, "Oh, Xiao Wuzi, I haven't seen you for so many years. You have aged a lot!"

Mr. Wu said embarrassedly, "Time and fate are not forgiving. Not everyone can be as stunning as you. How is Mr. Fu?"

Grandma Fu waved her hand and said, "She was buried three years ago!"

Mr. Wu was stunned, a little bit unbelievable, his eyes immediately turned red, he pressed his eyes hard to keep himself from losing composure, and asked in a trembling voice, "Did the old man suffer when he left?"

Beicheng only knew that the Wu family suddenly rose in his generation, went far in politics, and then gained a foothold, branched out, and now occupies a place.

But no one knew that before returning to North City, he was actually just a driver for the Fu family.

He picked up and dropped off Mr. Fu every day and occasionally received some guidance from the old man. Later, he returned to Beicheng with the strong support of Mr. Fu.

It can be said that without Mr. Fu, he would not be where he is today.

I thought I could see him again in my lifetime, but I didn't expect that my benefactor would leave so early.

Grandma Fu smiled and shook her head. "He didn't suffer. He passed away peacefully. I woke up after a nap and found that he was dead."

She had a very good relationship with her husband, and if she hadn't been concerned about the future life of her most beloved grandson, she would not have survived those two years.

But now she is not stupid anymore, she has such a good granddaughter-in-law, she has money and free time, she can live freely!

When Mr. Wu heard what Grandma Fu said, he breathed a sigh of relief and choked up, "That's good, that's good."

After a pause, he said attentively, "Madam, why don't you go upstairs to the private room to rest? I am very grateful that you are willing to come for this occasion today. I must not let you get tired!"

Grandma Fu waved her hand and declined, "No, no, I'm here with my child, I'll be leaving after playing for a while, and don't let everyone know, you know I like things to be simple."

Mr. Wu said quickly, "Okay, okay, I promise not to let the people below disturb you."

Watching Grandma Fu leave, Mr. Wu sighed softly and turned around to continue preparing for the birthday banquet.

Grandma Fu walked back to the corner, and Xu Yansang asked curiously, "Grandma, who are you talking to? You've been talking for so long, is it an old friend?"

Just now, Grandma Fu happened to block the figure of Grandpa Wu, and Xu Yansang did not see that the person chatting with Grandma Fu was the distinguished Grandpa Wu.
