Chapter 428: Guessing Madam Jun
Because it was a family banquet, only a few especially trustworthy friends were invited. Including the Jun family, there were less than ten people.
Everyone sat around the table and raised their gla.s.ses to congratulate Old Master Jun on his birthday. Old Master waved his hand happily.
“It’s a small family banquet today. Everyone who came today are the ones we trust the most. This old man has lived for seventy years. Now, I am truly successful. Let me introduce everyone. This is my granddaughter-in-law. This news is not public yet, but let me introduce her to everyone today.”
Jun s.h.i.+ling and Xia Wanyuan stood up and toasted the elders.
The elders present were all extremely important people. Everyone understood what Old Master Jun meant and returned a gift bag. This was considered officially acknowledging Xia Wanyuan’s status in the Jun family.
After dinner, the old master was playing chess with his friends. Jun s.h.i.+ling accompanied Xia Wanyuan for a walk in the garden to digest their food.
“Jun s.h.i.+ling, do you believe in people’s previous lives?” Xia Wanyuan suddenly asked.
Jun s.h.i.+ling paused and turned to look at Xia Wanyuan. “Yes.”
Xia Wanyuan had originally thought that someone like Jun s.h.i.+ling, who believed in materialism, would not believe these words about previous and current lives. Who would have thought that Jun s.h.i.+ling’s eyes were especially firm? In Jun s.h.i.+ling’s deep gaze, Xia Wanyuan did not know what to say next.
Jun s.h.i.+ling gripped Xia Wanyuan’s hand tightly and pushed her hair back. “As long as you say it, I’ll believe you.”
Xia Wanyuan opened her mouth to say something. Not far away, Xiao Bao was looking for his parents with a cake.
Hearing Xiao Bao’s voice, Xia Wanyuan bit her lip. “Let’s go over first.”
“Mm.” Jun s.h.i.+ling looked deeply at Xia Wanyuan and did not say anything.
The family banquet was relaxed and comfortable. Everyone chatted and laughed, and the day pa.s.sed.
“Alright, don’t send me off. You guys should rest early too. The banquet tomorrow night is tiring. Ah Ling, adjust yourself well.” The old master waved at Jun s.h.i.+ling and Xia Wanyuan.
He did not like to hold such a grand birthday celebration, but in his position, sometimes he had to do things he did not want.
After a lot of publicity by the media, everyone knew about Old Master Jun’s seventieth birthday.
Such large banquets had never been really for food. Many people wanted to use this opportunity to build connections with the Jun Corporation, so many people went to attend the banquet.
Even some big shot celebrities in the entertainment industry wanted to join in the fun.
After all, in an environment where capital was everything in the entertainment industry, if one could gain the favor of the Jun Corporation, it could be said that they had latched onto a golden thigh.
To the ma.s.ses in the entertainment industry, it was not important how many rich and powerful people had gone. They did not care how many resources and power were exchanged.
What they were most concerned about was that on such an important occasion like Old Master Jun’s seventieth birthday, Jun s.h.i.+ling, who was the top ideal husband in the world, should be appearing this time!
However, to everyone’s surprise, there were no reports about Madam Jun s.h.i.+ling. Instead, the little successor of the Jun family, that cute little dumpling, appeared in Old Master Jun’s arms.
At this moment, the netizens were tempted.
The rich had an illegitimate child, the mother had been abandoned, lovers had children, and all sorts of guesses appeared.
There was even an article about Jun s.h.i.+ling, who was actually incapable and could only use test tubes to nurture infants through technology.
The various forces in Beijing were also watching. They did not see the mistress of the Jun family appear. The hearts of the socialites in Beijing, who had died, began to grow again.
A group of socialites: Madam Jun’s position is too tempting. What’s wrong with being a stepmother? I love being a stepmother.
