Chapter 1152 The Hao Family Banquet
Hao Mengyan happily shared the news with Lu Xi. Her face was full of joy as she spoke. Her excitement could be heard even through the phone. "Also, there is another good news. He said he would hold a grand banquet to tell the world about this news. The time for the banquet has been set, and the venue is at the Diyun Hotel. He called Grandpa Fu personally and asked to use the largest banquet hall in the hotel."
Lu Xi listened carefully, and when Hao Mengyan finished speaking, she responded with a sneer, "This is just to cause trouble for the Fu family. To put it bluntly, it's a provocation."
Hao Mengyan curled her lips, "Well, he also specifically mentioned what happened yesterday, telling Mr. Fu not to get angry, and that this uproar will eventually pass. In fact, according to my grandfather's personality, he should be more arrogant. This is already quite restrained."
Lu Xi's eyes darkened, and her tone became more profound, "Well, it will indeed pass, because it will be the Hao family's turn soon."
Hao Mengyan was stunned for a moment, feeling a little strange in her heart, because that was her home after all, and now she was joining forces with outsiders to deal with her own family.
But Hao Mengyan was also very clear that if it weren't for her, Lu Xi would be even more ruthless, and the entire Hao family would be destroyed.
Immediately adjusting her state, Hao Mengyan asked seriously: "What should we do next?"
Lu Xi said, "Since he wants to hold a big banquet, let him do it. Also, before you do that, you and Rong Jin have something else to do, which is very important."
"What's the matter?" Hao Mengyan was stunned for a moment, and her expression immediately became serious. She knew that Lu Xi was definitely not joking.
After listening to Lu Xi's words, Hao Mengyan nodded heavily, "Okay, don't worry, I will remember it."
**
On that day, the news that the Hao family was going to hold a banquet at the Diyun Hotel shocked the entire Internet.
In order to cause a sensation, Hao Teng also spread rumors, revealing that he would announce his abdication at the banquet and hand over power to a new helmsman.
After three days of fermentation, the matter had become known to almost everyone, so on the day of the banquet, major media outlets gathered and internet celebrity bloggers from various platforms were also invited to attend the banquet.
Hao Teng's goal is to thoroughly expand the influence.
He also invited Fu Zongze, Shen Yuntian, Pei Jingting, Jin Guofeng, Ji Hongzhuo and others, and even Wei Zheng and Qin Zhengyuan were invited. It can be said that many business leaders gathered there.
Seeing Fu Zongze, Pei Jingting, and Jin Guofeng coming in together, Hao Teng immediately stepped forward with a smile, "Old Fu, I really didn't expect you to come."
Fu Zongze smiled, "The change of ownership of the Hao family is such a big event, of course I have to join in the fun."
The two words "change of ownership" were deliberately emphasized, causing Hao Teng's face to change slightly. Fu Zongze, this old man, what change of ownership? That's his grandson!
With a cold snort, Hao Teng continued to taunt, "No matter what, I am still very grateful. Such a big thing happened to the Fu family, which is enough for you to be overwhelmed, but you still have to come to the Hao family's wedding. I actually feel a little sorry."
His voice was loud enough for people around him to hear, and some people began to whisper.
"Are you talking about what happened the day before yesterday? It seems that a truck driver named Chen Jianghe almost jumped off the Fu Building?"
"That's what happened. I heard there were quite a lot of people around, but I don't know the details."
Hearing their discussion, Hao Teng couldn't help but sigh, "Don't make blind guesses, the person is fine, he was rescued by the kid from Nanzhou.
"Alas, it was originally a good thing, but unfortunately, due to some misunderstanding, Chen Jianghe's wife mistakenly thought he was dead, so she immediately sent him to the emergency room, but he couldn't be saved and died on the same day.
"Chen Jianghe's daughter, Chen Jiani, was furious and accused Fu Nanzhou of raping her in the office, and even played the entire video in the live broadcast room.
"This matter has caused a lot of uproar, but I think it's all nonsense. From what I can see in the video, it's clear that he didn't really do anything to her, so how can it be called rape? Moreover, even if something really happened, Nanzhou was unconscious at the time. It's obvious that he was drugged. It's not his fault."
It sounded indignant, as if he was explaining for Fu Nanzhou, but in fact he was just adding fuel to the fire.
He thought these people would laugh at the Fu family together, but unexpectedly, everyone around him looked at each other, as if they had just heard the news.
"What Chen Jiani? When did this happen?" Pei Jingting was stunned. "Old Fu, is this true?"
Jin Guofeng snorted coldly, "Bullshit! I don't believe a word you say. Hao Teng, you did this on purpose, didn't you? I heard that you are going to resign today. Are you planning to change your career path and become a screenwriter?"
Jin Xiuxiu glared at Hao Teng. "You are so shameless at your age, yet you are spreading rumors about the younger generation!"
Hao Teng was stunned for a moment. What did that mean? Why did it feel like these people weren't pretending?
But it is not surprising even if they don’t know. These people are all old folks in their seventies and eighties. They probably don’t surf the Internet normally, so it is normal that they don’t know the news on the Internet.
But this is related to the top wealthy families in Beijing after all. No matter how ignorant you are, you should know such big news.
unless……
Seeing Fu Nanzhou and Lu Xi coming in with the child in their arms, Hao Teng instantly understood that it was to save face for them.
But, he made such a big fuss today just to embarrass the Fu and Shen families, how could he just let it go?
"Nanzhou, I didn't expect you to come too. It seems like you and your wife haven't been affected at all. As your grandfather's good friend, Grandpa Hao is really pleased."
Hao Teng had a hypocritical smile on his face.
Fu Nanzhou chuckled, his expression somewhat perfunctory, "Thank you for your concern, Master Hao. We are in harmony as husband and wife, and we don't have any conflicts."
"That's right. Husbands and wives should share the joys and sorrows, but they should not quarrel when encountering problems. Don't be misled by the messy news on the Internet. I still believe in Nanzhou's character. As for Chen Jiani, she is just spreading rumors. Do you understand?"
Lu Xi curled the corners of her mouth, "You are right."
She didn't say anything else after that, as if avoiding the topic, but the couple held hands and didn't seem to be affected.
The more Hao Teng thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Such a big thing happened to the Fu family, why did everyone act as if nothing had happened? They were so calm and could attend the banquet as if nothing had happened. Were they really not afraid of being embarrassed?
Thinking back to Chen Jiani’s live broadcast yesterday, why does it seem like no one knows about this?
Is there something fishy going on here?
After a brief greeting, Hao Teng asked someone to call Chen Jiani, "Come to the Diyun Hotel immediately."
Since everyone has to pretend to be harmonious, he will break it. Chen Jiani's self-exposure live broadcast must have left an impression on many people. If he appears here at this time, it will definitely cause quite a stir.
Of course, before that, he still had to finish his business first. The Hao family's happy event in front would highlight the Fu family's embarrassment later.
"Sit down, everyone." Hao Teng asked everyone to sit down. When the time was almost up, he walked onto the stage with the help of his bodyguards. "I have something very important to announce today."
For a moment, the noisy banquet hall suddenly became quiet.
