Chapter 497: Chapter 497
Elder Liu and Zhuge Yu had just finished their conversation when there was a knock on the door. “Come in.” Elder Liu heard the knock on the door and said without even blinking.
It was Fatty who came in. He was holding something that both Elder Liu and Zhuge Yu found very familiar. “Whose invitation is this? Didn’t I tell you all to reject all these invitations? Just say that Sir’s health isn’t good.” Zhuge Yu looked at Fatty with an expression that said, “Why are you so dumb?” .
Fatty was also very aggrieved. Speaking of which, he didn’t want to come in either. He wanted to reject all of them at once. However, the two’s imposing manner was too strong and he was completely suppressed. He said weakly, “I didn’t want to bring it in either. However, this is the Qu family’s invitation. The one who is invited is the Little Miss. They said that it’s the Qu family’s fifth grandson’s 20th birthday banquet. They invited the Little Miss to attend.”
“Qu family?” When Zhuge Yu heard about the Qu family, his brows furrowed.
“yes.” Fatty looked at Zhuge Yu, whose expression was getting uglier and uglier, and nodded stiffly.
!!
“That’s interesting. Fatty, bring the invitation card over. Let me see.” On the other side, Elder Liu put down the chess piece in his hand and gestured for Fatty to bring the invitation card over.
Zhuge Yu saw his boss’s actions and did not understand what he was thinking.
Elder Liu raised his hand and gestured for Zhuge Yu not to speak. He picked up the invitation, flipped it open, and glanced at it and said to Fatty, “Fatty, send this invitation to the Little Miss. If she wants to go, then let her go. If she doesn’t want to go, then send it straight back to the Qu family.”
Elder Liu handed the decision to Chen Meng’er.
“Yes, Sir.” Fatty was a little confused about the atmosphere in the study room. He took the invitation again and looked at his boss, then looked at Zhuge Yu. Finally, he rubbed his forehead, closed the door, and left.
The moment Fatty left, zhuge Yu could not help but ask, “Sir, what are your plans? This birthday banquet is obvious. The Qu family’s intention is fishy. Look, which grandson in the Qu family is turning 20 years old?”
“Zhuge, don’t be agitated. If you can think of it, how could I not? The Qu family is anxious. They could not find a breakthrough, so they came up with this idea. I gave this decision to Meng’er because I have my own plans. Zhuge, don’t look at Meng’er as a kid. She has a big plan. She knows it better than us old fellows. I saw what Elder Qu did. Meng’er is calmer than me. She probably knows more than us, so it’s better for her to decide this on her own.” Elder Liu a.n.a.lyzed for Zhuge Yu.
“But…” Zhuge Yu was still worried,
“No buts. If Meng’er doesn’t want to go, no one will force her. If she’s willing to go, it’s time for us to let her go. Think about it, at such a young age, she can sneak into the j.a.panese military base alone. Will she let herself be at a disadvantage?” Elder Liu’s words were full of pa.s.sion, Zhuge Yu, who was listening to Elder Liu’s words, could not help but smile in his heart. When he had found out that their Little Miss had gone to the j.a.panese military base alone, he was so worried that he did not sleep for several nights and almost flew there. “Don’t worry, if Meng’er is willing to go, why would I let her go to the Qu family alone? I will go with her.”
In the end, Elder Liu was just saying it nicely, but in his heart, he was still worried about Chen Meng’er. In his heart, Chen Meng’er would always be a child.
“But, Sir, do you think that Little Miss will agree to attend the Qu family’s birthday banquet?” Zhuge Yu asked. “After all, from the beginning, Little Miss has expressed her rejection of such banquets.”
“Yes, about that, I can’t answer you. It depends on how much Meng’er knows in her heart.” Elder Liu touched his chin and answered.
Fatty held the Qu family’s invitation card in his hand and rushed to look for Chen Meng’er. Chen Meng’er and Skinny were just a.n.a.lyzing who was beside Yuan Jianqing and using him as a tool. They a.n.a.lyzed and a.n.a.lyzed and found that none of Yuan Jianqing’s friends were good people. This result gave Chen Meng’er and Skinny a headache. They couldn’t identify the target at once.
Chen Meng’er and Skinny were discussing the opportunity to further investigate Yuan Jianqing’s friends. Chen Meng’er believed that there was another person among them and he was not what he appeared to be.
“Little Miss.” Fatty held the Qu family’s invitation card in his hand and walked in, interrupting Chen Meng’er’s conversation with Skinny.
“d.a.m.n Fatty, What’s wrong with you? Can’t you see that Little Miss and I are busy with business?” Skinny who was interrupted in his train of thought angrily opened fire at Fatty.
Fatty was yelled at. He felt wronged in his heart. That small gaze of his looked at Skinny accusingly. Fatty’s expression made Chen Meng’er laugh. The anger in her heart that had just been interrupted vanished into thin air. “Uncle Fatty, why are you looking for me? What is that thing in your hand?”
“Oh, this is an invitation card from the Qu family. It’s for you, Little Miss. They said that they’re inviting you to attend the 20th birthday of Elder Qu’s grandson.” Fatty hurriedly pa.s.sed this hot potato to Chen Meng’e. He had been reprimanded quite a few times today because of this invitation card.
“An invitation card from the Qu family?” Chen Meng’er took the invitation card Fatty handed over and opened it.
“Qu family? Since when did the Qu family have the mood to hold a birthday banquet for their own grandchildren? I remember that even the eldest grandson of the Qu family didn’t have a birthday banquet,” Skinny said with some puzzlement.
“Oh? Is that so?” Chen Meng’er was originally considering whether she should go to the Qu family’s birthday banquet. Now that she heard Skinny’s words, she immediately made up her mind. She would definitely go to the Qu family’s birthday banquet. She really wanted to see what the Qu family was up to and what they were doing. “Alright then, I’ll accept the invitation. Uncle Fatty, tell Grandpa later that I’ll accept the Qu family’s invitation.” Actually, more than that, Chen Meng’er suddenly wanted to see her parents from her previous life.
