Speaking of the Guan family and the Lu family, they do have a long history.
Guan Rui's parents were close friends of the Lu family, and several descendants of the Guan family were also related to the Lu family by marriage. Various relationships and cooperation overlapped, and the exchanges between them were very close. Even though the Guan family was abroad over the years, they did not lose contact.
After the Guan family returned to China, they heard that the two families had a rift because of some things, but after all, the deep friendship was there.
However, there were many people who coveted the position of mistress tonight and had considerable strength. Seeing that the Guan family had taken the lead, the others naturally could no longer hold back and sent their own children of about the same age to please the little prince. At the same time, they tried every means to show their faces in front of the two elders in order to get their own people to the position.
Other branches and collateral branches who have self-awareness and do not covet that position are seizing the opportunity tonight to make all kinds of connections.
You have to know that all those who can attend this event tonight are top-notch connections, especially the direct descendants of the Lu family and the major shareholders of the group. They are rarely seen in normal days. Who wouldn't want to try their best to squeeze into the core circle
Lu Tingxiao was surrounded by people toasting him, but in front of this young clan leader, no one dared to show off too much. Those of lower status just toasted him with a glass of wine and left.
Only those with a bit of dignity would dare to exchange a few cautious pleasantries and report on developments. Only direct descendants like Lu Chongyuan would dare to chat intimately with their nephew and bring up certain sensitive topics.
"Tingxiao, as the saying goes, you should get married first and then start a career. You should really consider marriage. Even if it's not for yourself, it's for the children at least!" Lu Chongyuan advised earnestly, and tentatively said, "I think Ziyao is a good girl! You have been childhood sweethearts and have similar personalities. You are a perfect match!"
It is obvious that Lu Chongyuan is from the Guan family.
The national energy project that Guan Zihao recently took over was in cooperation with the branch company that Lu Chongyuan was in charge of. Lu Chongyuan's sister-in-law was Guan Rui's wife, and the two families were brothers-in-law, so they would naturally speak for the Guan family.
He Jingshu, who was standing next to her, tilted her head to look at her daughter Lu Xinyan and asked, "Xinyan, why didn't your sister Ziyao come today?"
Lu Xinyan avoided the question and said, "Sister Ziyao didn't come? I didn't know..."
He Jingshu said angrily, "You and Ziyao have such a good relationship, how could you not know? Didn't I ask you to bring your sister Ziyao home more often? How come we haven't seen each other for a long time..."
"Mom, you're so annoying. I've told you I don't know. Anyway, I just don't know! Your daughter is a person who does big things now, and I'm busy!" Lu Xinyan stomped her feet and ran away.
After all, Ning Xi had saved her life, and her first successful business in her life was also because of Ning Xi. Even if she didn't know what was good for her, she couldn't help others steal Ning Xi's girl!
However, she has such a good relationship with Sister Ziyao, and her parents are on the side of the Guan family. Now she can only try to stay away from them and not help either side to avoid embarrassment in the future.
Everyone was talking in a lively atmosphere when suddenly someone walked in from the door.
Looking at the person coming, everyone showed a shy expression on their faces. The whole banquet hall was silent for a moment. After a while, everyone continued to chat. No one looked at the door again, as if they were deliberately ignoring and avoiding the person at the door.
