Chapter 752 Good Luck and Bad Luck

The old man of the Yu family's words were so serious that even Mr. Bai looked at him in surprise.

But this is not the most important thing.

The eldest daughter of the old man also spoke slowly: "I am deeply sorry that I was unable to attend Mr. Song's memorial service. I have to put official duties first. In my new term of office, I will keep an eye on you." Home. Don’t do anything wrong, don’t reach out.”

If the words of the old man of the Yu family were just a warning, then the words of the old man's eldest daughter were a threat.

Xiong Jinglue slowly turned around and looked at the old man of the Yu family and the old man's eldest daughter in disbelief. He didn't understand how he had ended up in such a situation today where everyone was shouting for beatings because he just used some tricks. .

Moreover, he didn't want to understand what the old man's eldest daughter meant.

New term? Could it be that she is going to work in Xixi? Otherwise, how could she keep an eye on the Xiong family when she was so far away?

Bai Prism was also slightly surprised and asked the middle-aged woman in a low voice, "Have you been transferred?"

"Well, there are senior officials in charge of the neighboring provinces."

The sound was not loud, but in such a quiet banquet hall, how could it be ignored by those who pricked their ears?

For a moment, everyone understood what this middle-aged woman meant.

Although she is only a senior official in charge, it is difficult to even step into the Standing Committee, but behind her is her father. Everyone may have different opinions on government affairs, but she just wants to keep an eye on the Xiong family, and there will never be anyone here. Compete with her about things.

Everyone looked at Xiong Jinglue with a little more sympathy, and many people looked at him with gloating. Everyone was laughing. At least in the next few years, the Xiong family will be in a difficult situation, even more difficult than when Song Ziyan was in power. .

Xiong Jinglue was also dumbfounded, and his cheeks, which were slapped bright red, also turned pale at this moment.

He couldn't understand that he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he knew that no matter what he said, it was useless. His behavior, which he knew was careful enough, could lead to such evil consequences.

But now, it was too late to regret anything. He could only force himself to swallow this bitter pill.

After walking out of the banquet hall door, Xiong Jinglue watched the door slowly close. He seemed to understand that for a long time in the future, his life would be like this door, tightly closed, and he was the only one who was rejected. people outside the door.

The Xiong family will definitely give up on him unconditionally in order to survive. All the humiliation he suffered here will probably be experienced again after he returns to the family, or even more, several times.

…

Shi Lei picked up a glass of wine, stood up, looked around and said, "I'm sorry, I was young and too impulsive, and did something that made everyone uncomfortable. This glass of wine is my apology to everyone."

After saying that, Shi Lei drank it all in one gulp.

Then, he poured another glass of wine, raised his hands respectfully above his head, and bowed deeply to Mr. Bai: "Old Bai, I'm really sorry for disturbing your birthday banquet and affecting your mood."

Bai Lao smiled and waved his hand, watching Shi Lei finish the glass of wine, and then said: "Although it is a bit ridiculous, young people will always act frivolously. The time and occasion may not be completely reasonable, but old man, I think what you did is quite beautiful. . After all, it is a bit aggressive, but the situation is pitiful. If something similar happens in the future, please communicate with the old man in private first. After all, I am old and my heart will inevitably be a little tight."

A few buts, a few turns, seemed to mean blaming Shi Lei, but most of them were unabashed protection.

Everyone could hear and see clearly.

Shi Lei nodded heavily and said, "Old Bai, I'm sorry."

Bai Lao smiled slightly and said no more.

Shi Lei poured a third glass of wine and said to the old man of the Yu family and the middle-aged woman: "Mr. Yu, eldest sister, thank you both." After that, the glass was still dry.

The old man of the Yu family laughed loudly, his heroic mood was beyond words, but like the middle-aged woman, he did not speak, but there was a little more appreciation in his eyes.

Mr. Bai stood up holding on to the edge of the table, and Chen Manniv quickly supported him.

"I am also eighty years old, and half of my body is buried in the loess. Since I mentioned Lao Song, most of you here probably didn't go to Lao Song's memorial service. Let's have a glass of water and wine to reminisce."

Mr. Bai said this, no one would sit there stupidly, so everyone in the entire banquet hall stood up and raised a glass of wine in their hands.

Apart from……

Song Miaomiao......

This crazy woman was really exhausted mentally and physically. She not only fell asleep drunk, but also fell asleep tired.

No matter what, the birthday banquet was still slightly affected. Bai Lao didn't have the energy to sit down all the time. After staying for a while, he left early.

Naturally, Chen Yaonv helped Bai Lao to leave, and Shi Lei also supported Song Miaomiao and left.

The old man of the Yu family and the middle-aged woman also said goodbye and left later.

In the banquet hall, only Bai Prism was left on the main table.

He began to walk around the table, and the atmosphere and rhythm of the birthday banquet finally returned to 70% or 80%. Everyone seemed to have temporarily forgotten the episode that had just happened, and returned to the intoxicating atmosphere of drinking and drinking.

…

Back in the apartment, Shi Lei arranged for Song Miaomiao to sleep, while he walked to the window and lit a cigarette, which was extremely rare.

During the smoke, Shi Lei received a call from Wei Xingyue.

He told Wei Xingyue what happened at the birthday banquet, and Wei Xingyue said with a smile: "That's how it should be, but I didn't expect that so many people would voice their support after you took action. Shi Lei, how lucky are you?"

Shi Lei said sadly: "I feel like I have bad luck."

"Um?"

"Look, after you and I met, something happened in your family. After Miaomiao got together with me, something happened in her family too..."

"Idiot, what does this have to do with you? Although I don't want anything to happen to my father, I have to admit that without the Yu family, there will be the Zhao family, the Li family, and the Sun family. My father often said back then that a safe life is the result of the good deeds of the previous life. Something happened, and he just hoped that we wouldn't have to be implicated. As for the Song family, the reason why they prepared to join forces with the Yu family at first, but then changed their original intention because of your intrusion, was simply because they saw what Old Mrs. Song might face after he left. Dramatic changes. It can only be said that God did not follow people's wishes, and the Song family was still a step too slow after all. This is God's will and has nothing to do with you."

Shi Lei took a deep breath from the cigarette, and light cyan smoke flowed out of the corner of his mouth. He looked back at Song Miaomiao who was sleeping soundly on the bed, sighed, and said: "Having said that, I always feel that it is my bad luck that has affected you all. .”

"It should be said that it's your good luck that helped us get through the most difficult stage. Okay, don't think about it. The water delivery guy vented his anger tonight, and it will probably be much better. You should also go to bed early. I'm done with my work these days. After that, go back to Wudong.”

Shi Lei nodded silently, hung up the phone, and continued to smoke the remaining half of a cigarette.

He didn't know how to smoke at all, and he choked so much that he almost woke up the sleeping Song Miaomiao.

Seeing Song Miaomiao turning over on the bed, Shi Lei quickly pinched his cigarette and waved the smoke out of the window.

It was already halfway through August, and Shi Lei had spent almost no money during this period except for returning the five million to Wei Qing's family.

I still have more than four million in credit, so it’s time to think about how to spend it.

Shi Lei is not too worried about the current expenses. Although the decoration of the villa is basically completed, furniture, home appliances and soft furnishings are also a big expense. He can definitely spend this month safely.

What Shi Lei is worried about is non-yield investment, and he still has no clue until now.
