Chapter 1329 The Banquet Begins
On Friday, in the waters near Qinhuangdao, a huge cruise ship stopped at the Deepwater Bay. The afterglow of the setting sun cast a long reflection on the blue sea, and the waves created dense water ripples.
The pier was cleared of all tourists at two o'clock in the afternoon. It was no longer crowded and lively during the tourist season, but rather a little lonely and deserted.
Nearing dusk, luxury cars drove in from a distance and stopped at the pier. Rich businessmen and socialites dressed in bright and beautiful clothes got out of the cars and walked towards the cruise ship with elegant steps.
The Lu family did not take long to prepare for the banquet, but the number of people invited was unusually large! According to common sense, this kind of entertainment banquet that requires going out to sea will mostly only invite relatives and friends with very good relationships to avoid any accidents. But the Lu family did the opposite! It is obviously only a second-tier family, but this time it sent a post to all the first- and second-tier families? Even to the giant Ji family, an invitation letter was sent.
The worst thing is that many rumors are spreading - will the Ji family really come to this cruise banquet?
Many people don't believe it at all. Let's not talk about the fact that the Lu family has nothing that the Ji family would like. Just the newlywed wife of Mr. Ji, Bai Qi, has had countless grudges with Lu Xinran, both openly and secretly? ! It is said that the Internet has no memory, but the dispute between Bai and Lu has been a hot topic, and the heat has not completely dissipated until now. How can the Ji family suddenly put aside their grudges and come to the Lu family's banquet?
Everyone dared not believe it easily, but in the final analysis, coming to the banquet did not have any bad effects on their family. If the Ji family did not come, they would just think of it as going out for fun; if someone from the Ji family really came, wouldn't it be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, the invited families still sent representatives to attend.
The cruise banquet was scheduled to officially start at 7 o'clock on Friday night. In a city near the sea, the night always comes later than other places. At this moment, the sun was setting, and more and more luxury cars were coming one after another. The Lu family sent many people to stand at the end of the pier to welcome the distinguished guests to board the ship. The scene of coming and going suddenly became much more lively.
The sky was getting darker and darker. The light tower at the pier rang seven times, and the originally scheduled banquet was about to begin. As the host, Lu Ming did not entertain the guests in the hall, but stood at the bow of the cruise ship, his eyes quietly fixed on a certain place.
"Da Da Da."
There was a regular sound of footsteps behind him. Lu Ming did not even turn his head and said directly: "Miss Han, it is a very bad thing to disturb others' thinking."
Han Qingyu was wearing an exquisite black dress, which was well cut to reveal her exquisite waist. With a pair of ten-centimeter high heels, she walked all the way from the hall and attracted countless people's attention. Who knew that she was so beautiful, but Lu Ming did not even turn his head, which was really embarrassing.
Although she only had Ji Ye in her heart, she was a little swollen after passing through countless envious eyes. Seeing Lu Ming's reaction, he couldn't help but sneer: "What? Are you worried that the Ji family won't come tonight?"
Lu Ming's hand was on the railing, with a faint smile on the corner of his lips: "It's not me who set up the trap, the one who should be worried is you, right?"
"I haven't seen you for a few days, and you've become more eloquent?!" Han Qingyu was a little surprised why Lu Ming suddenly started to confront her? Previously, the entire Lu family obeyed her words, fearing that something would go wrong, but now...
