The winter sun is shining brightly, and the Jinhe Hall of the five-star Chaoyang Hotel in the city center is bustling.
"Well, be good, listen to Grandma Li. Mommy will come back and bring you something delicious, okay?" In the bathroom, Lu Man lowered her voice and coaxed her son into the phone.
Outside the toilet cubicle, someone sneered disapprovingly. Lu Man raised his eyes and looked at the milky white toilet door, pursed his lips, and said into the phone: "Okay, Mommy is going to do something. Remember to be obedient."
Oh." After she said this, she gave him a kiss with a bang.
Coming out of the toilet cubicle, a tall, slender woman wearing a black and white waitress suit was applying lipstick with her back to her. When she saw her through the mirror, she rolled her eyes with disdain.
This is a colleague with whom she has always been at odds, named He Lingling
Lu Man didn't look away, turned on the faucet next to her, washed her hands, took out the paper towel and dried them, then opened the door and walked out.
The moment the door closed, she heard He Lingling let out a sigh, and the words "Who are you putting money in front of?" floated over.
Lu Man paused, her eyes slightly cold, but she didn't look back to seek bad luck. She had said what she should have said and shown her kindness when she should have, but the other party didn't appreciate it. There was nothing she could do, and there was no need to care about it. There was no need.
Go put your hot face on someone else's cold ass
Be stupid, once is enough!
Lu Man raised the corners of her lips in a sarcastic manner, thinking of her son's milky sounds on the phone just now, she couldn't help but soften her face, and felt a trace of guilt in her heart.
She really couldn't attend the anniversary of her son's school today. Although Enen understood, his eyes could not stop being disappointed. As early as when she went out, she asked her landlord, Grandma Li, to pick up her son from school and take care of him at her house.
Now I have time to give him a call
It can be seen that my son is very happy today. Although it is a pity that she did not go to the kindergarten's anniversary, you can still tell from his tone that he is very happy.
She is a failing mother!
Lu Man sighed in his heart and felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
Just thinking of her son's young face, she quickly cheered up, secretly clenched her fists and said "Come on," and then walked to the banquet hall.
Jinhe Hall, the lights are bright at this time, the people are loud, the clothes and temples are shadowed
On the occasion of the golden wedding anniversary of Ye Ci, a well-known philanthropist in the city, and his wife, the banquet was held quite grandly. Ye Ci and his wife have always been very popular and had a wide circle of friends. All the guests invited were powerful celebrities in the society.
Lu Man had seen many such banquets and participated in many. Now looking at the scene of people drinking and drinking, she couldn't help but feel a little dazed, as if she had seen the scene where she held her father's hand and chatted with other uncles many years ago.
Thinking of his father who died young, Lu Man's face felt sad again.
"Xiao Man, why are you so dazed? The guests all have opinions."
While he was lost in thought, Lu Man's elbow was bumped by his colleague Ma Mei, who lowered his voice to remind him
Lu Man was startled, and she saw an important lady in front of her looking at her displeased. She quickly showed a suitable and flattering smile and handed over a pastry in her hand.
"Be careful, the old godmother is staring hard." When Ma Mei saw the lady walking away, she pursed her lips in a certain direction again.
Lu Man looked in her direction and saw one of the female assistant managers of the catering department, glancing over here with a warning.
Lu Man's heart trembled, she stuck out her tongue, stood up straight in front of the long dining table
The job she was assigned was to provide meals to the guests. The snacks were located in the northwest corner, where they faced the most customers, so they were stared at very closely.
The music in the banquet hall was flowing, as the hosts, Mr. and Mrs. Ye, were milling about the whole place. The guests were chatting in small groups. The men were talking about business, while the women were talking about which famous brand had launched a new product, or who was talking about it.
There was another mistress, and as for the ladies and gentlemen, they were secretly casting flirtatious glances.
This kind of high-class banquet is actually a kind of blind date in disguise. Young men and women meet each other. If they are open to each other, they will probably have sex with each other for a while. If their life is more dissolute, they will leave the banquet hall and go to the guest room upstairs.
"Look, another couple has left." Ma Mei bit her ear again and nudged her mouth in the direction of the back door.
Lu Man looked over and saw a woman wearing a black dress and heavy makeup walking towards the back door. A man in a suit and leather shoes first glanced around and saw that no one was paying attention. He put down his wine glass and followed her eagerly.
They were the two people who had made passionate eye contact just now. I'm afraid they looked at each other.
Lu Man smiled slightly, picked up a piece of black forest cake and handed it to a guest before saying: "I think you will only pay attention to this."
Ma Mei curled her lips and handed the fruit on her hand to the guests with a smile, and then said: "Hey, this is not the only thing about rich families. You just came here and you don't know that I have been in Chaoyang for two years. This kind of banquet can't be seen."
Too many, these young ladies who look noble and elegant are so rotten on the inside, you can’t even imagine how rotten they are.”
Lu Man smiled without saying a word and lowered his eyes.
How could she not know? Back then, she had seen too much. Several wealthy young men she knew well were probably related to a famous lady.
Everyone knows that wealthy families are corrupt.
"Let me tell you, I met her in the bathroom one time." Seeing that the managers didn't pay attention to them, Ma Mei couldn't help but whisper in Lu Man's ear: "Oh, that woman screamed so loudly. I was
It’s strange, why was the bathroom marked “under cleaning” when it wasn’t cleaning time? I couldn’t hold it in anymore so I rushed in. Who knew this was the case?”
Lu Man's pretty face turned red when she heard that, she couldn't help but spat at her, and whispered: "Stop talking."
Seeing her blushing, Ma Mei couldn't help but bumped her teasingly: "Oh, you are already a mother, but you still blush after listening to naughty words."
"You also said that the old godmother is looking at you again."
Ma Mei shrank her neck and then closed her mouth, but her eyes were still full of teasing.
Lu Man shook his head. Ma Mei had a carefree temper and was relatively close to her. She just kept her mouth shut and could say anything. This was not the first time Lu Man heard her say such nasty things.
While they were laughing, there was a sudden commotion in front of them. The two of them looked over at the same time, and their eyes fell on the pair of well-matched beauties who appeared at the door of the banquet hall.
Seeing the pair of men and women, Lu Man's pupils shrank suddenly, and when he loosened his grip, the snack clip in his hand fell down.
