Questions were thrown one after another, but Lu Junming didn't answer any of them. He just smiled and waved to everyone to stop. When the crowd finally quieted down, he looked at everyone and smiled: "We will arrange a special time for everyone to ask questions later, but not now, we have to wait a while. If everyone is willing to wait patiently, I will give answers to all your questions in a while, OK?"
After hearing what he said, everyone nodded and left consciously. Lu Junming looked at Kang Yafei beside him and said, "Let's go and say hello to our friends!"
Kang Yafei nodded and followed him forward. People kept coming up to chat with Lu Junming. Kang Yafei felt a little bored following them, so she subconsciously looked for Director Yang in the crowd. She saw Director Yang walking towards the two of them with a glass of red wine.
"Director Yang, thank you for coming to the Lu Group's cocktail party!" Lu Junming took the red wine from the waiter next to him and clinked his glasses with Director Yang.
"Jun Ming, you're too polite. Feifei, you look very beautiful tonight!" Director Yang looked at Kang Yafei and smiled kindly.
"Thank you, Director! I didn't expect to see you here!" Kang Yafei smiled embarrassedly. With Director Yang around, she felt a little more comforted.
"I know Jun Ming's eldest brother well, so I had to come and take a look!"
The three of them exchanged a few pleasantries, and Lu Junming took Kang Yafei to greet the others. Before they took a few steps, they saw Lu Junming's good friend Chu Haolin and a beautiful girl walking over with a smile. Looking at the two people in front of him, a complicated look flashed in his eyes, and then disappeared in an instant.
"Brother Junming, you look so handsome today!" The girl who was holding Chu Haolin's arm suddenly ran over, held Lu Junming's other arm, and greeted him happily.
"Your brother Junming has always been handsome, okay?" Lu Junming smiled and joked with the girls around him. Judging from their expressions, he should be someone they are familiar with.
"Hello, Mr. Chu!" Kang Yafei greeted Chu Haolin with a smile, her expression a little awkward.
"Fei Fei, you look so beautiful tonight!" Chu Haolin couldn't help but sigh.
"Brother, you just said I'm pretty!" The girl on one side pouted, looked at Kang Yafei on the other side, looked up at Lu Junming and asked, "Brother Junming, who do you think is prettier between the two of us?"
"Of course you are beautiful! Feiyan is always the most beautiful!" Lu Junming replied with a smile. When he looked at Chu Feiyan, there was a bit of doting in his eyes.
"Then why don't you ask me to be your female companion tonight?" Chu Feiyan asked unhappily with a pout. She has always liked Brother Jun Ming, and she felt very unhappy every time she saw a woman around him.
"Fei Yan!" Chu Haolin glanced at his sister and smiled at Kang Yafei: "My sister has always liked to joke with Jun Ming since she was a child, don't mind it!"
Kang Yafei smiled and shook her head. She didn't dislike the cute and pretty Chu Feiyan next to her at all. Judging from the way Lu Junming looked at her, he probably regarded her as his sister.
As they were talking, there was a commotion at the entrance. Kang Yafei followed everyone's gaze and saw Lu Junming's elder brother, Lu Zifeng, walking in with an old man in his seventies or eighties. Lu Zifeng's icy face had a little more smile on it. From his expression, you can see how important this old man next to him is.
As soon as the two appeared, many people came forward to greet the old man enthusiastically. It can be seen that although he is over 70 years old, his influence in this social circle cannot be underestimated. Everyone who greeted him had a look of admiration and respect. Kang Yafei couldn't help wondering, who is this old man? But the next second, Lu Junming gave her the answer.
"Let's go, let's go say hello to grandpa!" Lu Junming pulled out his arm, put his hand on Kang Yafei's waist, and walked with her towards the direction of their eldest brother and grandfather.
"He is your grandfather?" This really surprised her, but when she thought about it, it made sense. This cocktail party tonight was hosted by the Lu family, so it was not surprising that Lu Junming's grandfather appeared here.
"Yes! He is the founder of the Lu Group. He was a very famous person back then! Even now, no one dares to look down on him." Lu Junming answered with a smile, a proud expression on his face.
Lu Junming's words made Kang Yafei more curious about this old man Lu. She couldn't help but wonder, since the cold-faced Third Young Master was one of the Lu brothers, then as the founder of the group, did Old Man Lu know about it
A path was cleared through the crowd, and Lu Junming brought Kang Yafei to Mr. Lu: "Grandpa, didn't you say you wouldn't come today?"
"This is Yafei, right?" Old Master Lu ignored his grandson and instead fixed his gaze on Kang Yafei who was standing next to him, with a friendly smile on his face.
"Hello, Grandpa!" Kang Yafei greeted him hurriedly and politely. Although the old man was over 70 years old, he looked very strong, and his yellow eyes were still bright.
"Well, good! Good! Not bad!" Mr. Lu looked at Kang Yafei in front of him and nodded with satisfaction.
Seeing Mr. Lu's admiring expression towards Kang Yafei, someone next to him interrupted and flattered him: "It seems that the old man is very satisfied with this grandson's wife!"
Mr. Lu smiled heartily: "Yes, satisfied! Satisfied! If they can give me another great-grandson, I will be even more satisfied."
As soon as Mr. Lu finished speaking, everyone started laughing.
Kang Yafei blushed and smiled embarrassedly, but she couldn't help muttering in her heart: You're adding a great-grandson? The only thing I can give to your family is probably a pair of handcuffs!
Lu Zifeng stood aside, still without a smile on his cold face. He had been staring at Kang Yafei since she appeared in his sight. He didn't know if this woman was too good at disguising herself or if his suspicion of her was wrong. He didn't find any clues on Kang Yafei's face. But he was a calm person and would not give up anything just for this moment. As long as she became his brother's fiancée, he would have plenty of time!
It can be seen that Mr. Lu rarely appears in such public occasions. His appearance completely attracted everyone's attention. Many people ran over to say hello to him. From this, we can imagine how glorious Mr. Lu was back then. Kang Yafei followed Lu Junming and accompanied Mr. Lu all the way to the front hosting platform. Lu Junming helped his grandfather sit down, and he and his eldest brother stood on both sides of his grandfather.
The crowd gradually quieted down. Mr. Lu looked at the people in the audience. The reporters were ready to ask questions. Mr. Lu smiled and waved to everyone. Then he said slowly and forcefully: "First of all, thank you all for coming to our Lu's cocktail party. In the past period of time, everyone has some disputes about our Lu Group. I invited everyone here today just to clarify some things in person. I hope that there will be no more rumors in the future." When Mr. Lu said this, he nodded slightly to the police chief next to him: "Chief Yang, today I would like to trouble you to clarify the incident about methamphetamine to everyone!"
As soon as Mr. Lu finished speaking, Director Yang instantly became the focus of everyone's attention, and everyone's eyes were all looking over. At this time, Kang Yafei also understood why Director Yang came here. Director Yang nodded knowingly, walked slowly to the stage, and said to the people below: "I came here today to clarify one thing to everyone. The ice/drug incident that happened a few days ago was purely a false accusation. Someone deliberately wanted to discredit the Lu Group, so they came up with this idea. We have already investigated the matter, and the police station has also explained the situation to the public. Today I came here again to tell everyone that I hope there will be no similar rumors in the future. If there are people with ill intentions who spread this kind of news again, we will definitely hold him accountable for his legal responsibilities. Thank you everyone!"
As soon as Director Yang finished speaking, the reporters in the audience began to ask questions: "Mr. Lu, you just said that you would be satisfied if Miss Yu gave you another great-grandson. Does that mean you have tacitly acknowledged her relationship with President Lu?" The previous topic was too sensitive, so the reporter turned the topic to Lu Junming and Kang Yafei. As soon as his question came out, it aroused great interest among everyone.
"Yes! I am very satisfied with this granddaughter-in-law!" Grandpa Lu made no secret of his love for Kang Yafei, with a satisfied smile on his face.
"Excuse me, Mr. Lu, do you have any plans to let them get married?" Mr. Lu's words made everyone more interested in the two of them.
"Of course! Feifei, come here!" Old Master Lu waved at Kang Yafei, motioning her to come over to him.
Kang Yafei didn't expect Mr. Lu to do this. Facing the unanimous gazes from the audience, she pursed her lips and slowly walked to Mr. Lu: "Grandpa, what do you want?"
Mr. Lu smiled amiably, and someone beside him immediately presented a finely carved mahogany jewelry box. Mr. Lu raised his hand and opened the box with a click. The reporters in the audience were immediately attracted by the contents.
"This is a diamond necklace I bought at an auction more than ten years ago. I'm giving it to you today! It's a gift from your grandfather to you!" Grandpa Lu picked up the necklace gently and showed it to the reporters in the audience. Then he put it back into the box, closed the jewelry box, and handed it to Kang Yafei.
"Grandpa, this gift is too valuable. I can't accept it!" Kang Yafei didn't expect that Grandpa Lu would give her such a valuable gift, and she shook her head repeatedly.
"What? Do you think the gift I gave you is too light? Take it, kid. This is a gift from grandpa!" Old Master Lu looked at Kang Yafei, his voice slow and powerful, his words revealing an irresistible power and majesty.
"Thank you, Grandpa!" Facing so many media and guests attending the reception, if she insisted on refusing Mr. Lu, it would definitely be embarrassing. Kang Yafei reached out to take the jewelry box and nodded to express her gratitude to Mr. Lu. (To be continued)
