1285 Charity Banquet
The Xia family is going to disappear. What's the use of keeping an heir? We've already offended the Luo family. Who will still do business with our Xia family in the future? Xia Mengyan, you're selfish and only care about yourself. Without the Xia family, who do you think you are?! Xia Cheng pointed at Xia Mengyan and cursed.
Ai Sumei, who was at the side, was still unconvinced. She muttered in a low voice, It's not Mengyan's fault. It's all Qiao Xi's fault.
Xia Cheng choked on his words and almost fainted. The foundation that he had worked so hard for his entire life was ruined just like that. The Xia family's reputation was ruined, and they were despised by everyone because of Xia Mengyan, Xia Yunlou, and Ai Sumei.
The taste of blood rose in his throat, and his chest felt stuffy. His vision darkened, and he fainted.
On the other hand, Qiao Xi had just left New City Mall when she saw a tall man standing there. At this moment, Shen Yu had already taken off his human skin mask and stood in the crowd, looking especially dazzling. Many fans noticed Shen Yu and hurriedly went up to ask for his autograph. He smiled gently and signed autographs for every fan.
This was the first time many fans had seen Shen Yu in person. They were extremely excited. Are you here to participate in a variety show?
Shen Yu smiled and replied, It's just a small event, not a recording.
The fans asked in surprise, Are you attending the opening ceremony of the New City Mall?
Qiao Xi was hiding in a corner when she heard Shen Yu pretend to be puzzled and say, What's New City Mall? I've never heard of it! I'm here to attend a private gathering. I hope you guys won't tell anyone about seeing me here.
His tone was sincere and gentle. The fans present nodded crazily in agreement. No one would have thought that this gentle-looking Best Actor was pretending to be a member of the Luo family in New City Mall just now!
The fans held their autographs and said goodbye to Shen Yu excitedly. Shen Yu said softly to his manager, It's about time. We should go to the gathering.
The manager looked at Shen Yu in confusion, then his eyes were filled with admiration. As expected of the Best Actor! His acting skills were natural!
Shen Yu revealed an indifferent smile. As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Qiao Xi's figure. He quickly walked over and asked softly, How is it? Are you satisfied?
Qiao Xi nodded.
Shen Yu looked up in the direction of the New City Mall. Why are you out so soon? Xia Cheng didn't stop you from leaving? Shouldn't he be looking for you to settle scores?
Qiao Xi replied casually, They're all so anxious that they don't have the mood to care about me! When I came out, I think I heard that Chairman Xia fainted. The Xia family should be in chaos now.
The smile on Shen Yu's face widened.
Longwan Residential.
After Qiao Xi returned home, she took out her phone. As expected, as soon as she went online, she saw the news about the incident at New City Mall. At this moment, the Xia family's reputation had been ruined. Coupled with the fact that they had offended the Luo family, they were in grave danger.
The netizens stood up and criticized the Xia family for their crimes. Some of their competitors also scolded them online. However, Xia Cheng hadn't fainted, so he couldn't do anything about it.
Now that Xia Cheng was unconscious and the Xia family had lost their decision-maker, it seemed that they were already in a state of disunity.
The next day.
Qiao Xi was resting at home when Song Shiyu and the servants walked up to her with a few gowns. Madam, the He family is holding a charity banquet tonight and invited you and the president. These are the gowns prepared for you.
She put down the book in her hand and raised her eyes slightly. She casually pointed at a simple gown and frowned. Why is He Weinian suddenly holding a charity banquet?
Actually, He Weinian holds a charity banquet almost every year, but the timing is not fixed. He has invited many guests, and all the famous people in Li City will attend.
Qiao Xi sneered. When the He family was in Li City, they were considered a middle-level wealthy family. Now that they're back after so many years, how did they manage to invite so many people to the charity banquet?
Song Shiyu's lips curled into a mocking smile. Because He Weinian has a good reputation! He's very popular in Li City now! Although the He family's business isn't as good as before, he donates at least 100 million yuan every year. This isn't a small sum for the He family.
Qiao Xi said thoughtfully, Could it be that he just wants a good reputation, so
It's not that simple. Song Shiyu's expression was subtle as he raised his eyebrows and said, Do you really think they'll take out such a large sum of money to donate? Then what will the He family use to spend? Actually, that money has never left the He family.
