Regardless of what her former colleagues thought, Xiang Xiaoyuan was in a very good mood.

The counterattack just now was very beautiful, and the slap to the face was also very satisfying. She had forgotten to retract her hand that was placed on Lu Wanggui’s arm.

The Spring Banquet Bar was a members-only bar, so Xiang Xiaoyuan was already prepared to be stopped. She was also prepared to communicate with the security guards and say that they were here to pick up the child.

Who would have thought that before they reached the door, a man in formal attire walked up with a smile on his face. “Hello, are you Ceo Lu? I’m the manager of Spring Banquet. My surname is Zhou. Just now, CEO Zhu called me and said that you would be coming.”

Lu Wanggui nodded. “Sorry to bother you.”

Manager Zhou often interacted with all kinds of people. When he saw Xiao Yuan holding Lu Wanggui’s arm, he immediately realized Xiang Xiaoyuan’s identity, he smiled and said, “I’ve asked someone to reserve a private room upstairs for you and your wife. Let’s go up and see which one you like.”

“No need. We’re here to look for someone. We won’t stay long.”

Manager Zhou quickly led the way. “Okay. If there’s anything you need help with, just let me know, CEO Lu.”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The colleagues not far away saw this scene and immediately lost their composure. They didn’t know Lu Wanggui, but they knew manager Zhou! This man was extremely arrogant. When he spoke to them, his nose was up in the air. He looked down on others, but in front of Xiang Xiaoyuan’s husband, he was as obedient as a dog.

The Spring Banquet Bar was famous. Zhao Kai and the others had long wanted to come and take a look, but they were short on money. If not for the boss being generous and Zhao Kai’s financial support, they would not have come to this place to hold a celebration party.

And there was a small incident at this celebration party. They did not know that the Spring Banquet was members-only, so they were blocked outside the door. Manager Zhou happened to pass by and heard the security guard say that they were not members. He waved his hand as if he was shooing away flies. “If you’re not a member, hurry up and leave. Don’t block the door.”

At that time, the scene was awkward. If Zhao Kai did not have a relative who happened to be a member of this bar, they would have lost a lot of face!

Comparing the scene of them entering the bar and Xiang Xiaoyuan’s husband’s treatment, someone could not help but ask, “What exactly does Xiaoyuan’s husband do?”

Lu Wanggui was not in the same circle as them. He was also very low-key. He did not appear in financial newspapers or accept television interviews. It was normal for ordinary people not to recognize him.

Although they could not recognize Lu Wanggui’s identity, they were sure that he was either rich or noble!

When he realized this, Zhao Kai’s expression did not look good. The others looked at each other at the same time. Their expressions were self-explanatory. Zhao Kai thought that he had struck it rich. He could stomp on Xiang Xiaoyuan and make her regret rejecting him. Who would have thought that instead of smacking her in the face, he would be smacked in the face by someone else.

What was this?

...

In the bar, Xiang Xiaoyuan finally realized that she was still holding onto Lu Wanggui’s arm! She quietly let go. In order not to make her movement too deliberate, she even found a topic to talk about. “Who is CEO Zhu that Manager Zhou is talking about?”

“A friend. He owns the Spring Banquet.”

Before he came over, he contacted Assistant Gao. It was probably because Assistant Gao had communicated with the other side.

“Is that so?” Xiang Xiaoyuan patted her chest. “When I came here, I was worried that we wouldn’t be able to enter.”

Lu Wanggui was amused by her action. “No.”

Manager Zhou overheard their conversation and couldn’t help but smile. CEO Lu’s new wife was quite interesting. She probably wasn’t from the industry. She looked simple and innocent, and she was also beautiful, no wonder she caught CEO Lu’s eye.

“CEO Lu, is the person you’re looking for in a booth or a private room? Do you know the exact location?” Manager Zhou saw that the two of them didn’t have a specific target after they entered. They had been wandering around the bar. So he quickly said, “The seating arrangement at the Spring Banquet is not very regular. People who enter for the first time often can’t find their seats.”

Lu Wanggui: “... the exact location?”

After a pause, he looked at Xiang Xiaoyuan.

Xiang Xiaoyuan reacted quickly and continued, “It’s a boy. He’s not even eighteen years old yet. He’s very tall. I estimate that he’s about 1.83 meters tall. He’s also very handsome. He’s very eye-catching in the crowd.”

She tried hard to recall all of Lu Bei’s characteristics. “Also, he shouldn’t have come alone, but I’m not sure how many people.”

Manager Zhou: “...”

How was he supposed to find him?

“CEO Lu, please wait for a moment with Madam. I’ll get someone to check.”

Lu Wanggui nodded.

After Manager Zhou left, Xiang Xiaoyuan stood beside Lu Wanggui and looked around curiously. The bar in the book was no different from the bar in her real life.

The light was very dim, and occasionally there was a flash of light.. The music was deafening.
