If that doesn't work, then Ji Hongyu from the Ji family is much better than Lu Yu, right?
But Lu Yu..., it would be nice not to be a drag on the Tang family.
"That's enough for you!" Tang Mengying stared at everyone.
Although Lu Yu looked calm and unconcerned at this moment, Tang Mengying suddenly felt distressed for no reason.
The sarcastic words from the people around him were like a violent storm, hitting Lu Yu crazily.
Lu Yu, on the other hand, is like a small boat in a violent storm. Although it will not be knocked over by the strong wind and rain, it is still swaying constantly, which is heart-stopping.
Tang Mengying knew that Lu Yu endured all this because of her!
Seeing Tang Mengying getting angry, many people shut their mouths, but some people still kept talking.
"Everyone, please stop." Tang Qinglin said calmly, and the voices of everyone around him suddenly stopped.
"Putting everything else aside, I personally would also like to make Mr. Lu a friend."
"So, Mr. Lu just wants to stand by my side."
Tang Qinglin pondered for a moment, and then ended the topic with a final word.
Tang Shuhan looked at Lu Yu with a trace of resentment in his eyes, but he did not dare to go against Mr. Tang's wishes and had to remain silent.
"Old man, even if Lu Yu stands by your side, he can't claim to be Mengying's boyfriend." Tang Hongyu frowned slightly, but his tone was extremely firm.
And what he said was actually exactly what Lu Yu wanted.
Lu Yu was good at being Tang Mengying's shield in front of everyone in the Tang family, but he really didn't want to announce this identity to others.
"This..." Tang Qinglin also hesitated.
"Mr. Tang, I think this is okay." Lu Yu nodded lightly.
"Okay then!" Tang Qinglin said no more.
Tang Shuhan snorted coldly, thinking that you, Lu Yu, are somewhat self-aware.
"Mr. Tang, everything is ready. Guests have entered the manor outside." The butler walked over quickly and reported to Tang Qinglin.
"Okay! Come with me to greet the guests!"
Tang Qinglin waved his hand and led the crowd forward again.
Lu Yu and Tang Mengying naturally followed each other, one on the left and the other on the right.
…
On a high platform in the manor, Tang Qinglin sat on an imperial chair, facing the door leisurely.
Except for Lu Yu and Tang Mengying, who were on both sides, everyone in the Tang family stood behind them.
The whole family welcomes the guests together, which can be regarded as giving enough face to the guests today.
Not long after, cars began to arrive outside the manor.
One after another, there are dozens of luxury cars costing tens of millions.
"Jiangnan Taixiang Company came here to visit the Tang family. I wish the Tang family a prosperous business and good health to Mr. Tang."
"Jiangnan Shunya Group came here to visit the Tang family. I wish the Tang family's enterprise all the best and Mr. Tang's happiness, longevity and health!"
"Jiangnan Haohui Enterprise, I came here to visit..."
"Jiangnan Zhao family..."
For a time, the Tang family manor became lively, and it was like a bustling crowd.
Countless companies, large and small, from Jiangnan City came to visit.
And many people came here specifically for Mr. Tang.
Mr. Tang was a highly respected and humble man with extensive connections in Jiangnan City. On such a day, naturally many people came to support him.
These people all held exquisite gifts in their hands and placed them on the gift table at the door.
"Welcome everyone, thank you for giving me this face." Tang Qinglin smiled heartily and held his hands in front of everyone.
"Mr. Tang is so polite. We are deeply honored to come to visit the Tang family!"
"Yes, we are deeply honored!"
All the business giants in Jiangnan City treated Mr. Tang politely.
"Okay! Everyone, please take a seat and rest for a while. When I finish the reception, we will officially start the banquet." Tang Qinglin laughed.
Everyone took care of themselves and quickly found a seat and sat down.
At this time, they have to seize the opportunity.
After all, this gathering is equivalent to a corporate exchange meeting in Jiangnan City.
Here, people who are usually rare to see will also appear.
Maybe with just a few words, a big deal worth millions can be negotiated right here.
When these people passed by the Tang family, they also said hello to the Tang family.
When they saw Lu Yu, those people were a little surprised. After all, Lu Yu was a stranger.
But being able to stand beside Mr. Tang is definitely not an ordinary person!
Not knowing Lu Yu's details and identity, they didn't dare to talk casually, so they nodded and sat down.
Tang Shuhan and everyone sneered, so many guests were all prominent figures in Jiangnan City.
But Lu Yu didn’t know anyone, so he still dared to stand at the front without feeling ashamed of himself?
"Are some people just not self-aware and standing in front of them like light bulbs?"
"Who says it's not the case? None of these people are big bosses in Jiangnan City. He may know them, but they don't know him!"
Everyone's tone was contemptuous, their words were disdainful, and their faces were full of meaning.
Lu Yu, however, had no time to pay attention to them at this time, and felt a little uneasy.
"Um, Mengying?" Lu Yu whispered.
Tang Mengying was stunned, and quickly walked around from behind Mr. Tang and came to Lu Yu's side.
"What's wrong?" Tang Mengying lowered her voice and asked quietly next to Lu Yu.
At this time, everyone in Tang Qinglin was busy greeting the guests and had no time to pay attention to the two of them.
"Who is coming to this party today from Jiangnan City?" Lu Yu frowned slightly.
"There are many of them. Some are business partners of our Tang family, some have some friendship with my grandfather, and some just want to come here to make more connections."
"My grandfather naturally welcomes these people." Tang Mengying explained to Lu Yu in a low voice.
Lu Yu felt even more uneasy after hearing this, and quickly lowered her voice and asked: "The Ji family, aren't you coming over?"
This is what makes Lu Yu uneasy.
On this occasion, he regarded himself as Tang Mengying's boyfriend in the Tang family. If someone from the Ji family enterprise saw him, Lu Yu wouldn't be able to escape even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
Although Mr. Tang did not explain Lu Yu's identity to the guests, it was hard not to think too much when Lu Yu was standing here with Tang Mengying!
Tang Mengying was stunned when she heard this. She immediately understood what Lu Yu was thinking and couldn't help but want to laugh.
"No, no, no, don't worry, the Ji family will definitely not come over." Tang Mengying replied with an extremely confident tone.
Since Mr. Ji passed away, the contacts between the Tang family and the Ji family have gradually decreased.
Later, after Ji Leshan became the chairman of Ji Family Enterprises, Mr. Tang Qinglin didn't like Ji Leshan's character and directly broke off contact with him.
Moreover, there is no cooperation between the Tang family and the Ji family, and there is no intersection between the two. It is impossible for the Ji family to send anyone here.
"Are you sure?" Lu Yu was still a little uneasy. After all, it was about his relationship with Ji Ningxue, and he didn't dare to do anything wrong.
"Sure! Don't worry. I know everything about the company. The day before yesterday, I was at the company to look at the recent business conditions. I didn't have any cooperation with the Ji family at all." Tang Mengying comforted Lu Yu.
"Well, that's good." Lu Yu felt relieved, nodded and said no more.
Tang Mengying did not return to her seat, but stood next to Lu Yu, welcoming the guests along with Mr. Tang.
"The Qian family from Jiangnan came to visit and wish Mr. Tang good health in Fujian!"
There was another shout, and seven or eight people came outside the manor.
All the guests who had already taken their seats were a little surprised.
Even the Qian family came to the banquet. It seems that Mr. Tang’s reputation is indeed quite good!
The Jiangnan Qian family can be considered a second-rate family. They are very low-key and don't like to appear in public, and they rarely participate in such occasions.
