Chapter 145 The rumors are true
After hearing this, Guo Yingying still clenched her fists, but ultimately did not vent her inner anger.
Unusually, he didn't say a word, but just turned and left silently.
But she had secretly made up her mind: one day, she would let these people know how powerful she was!
On the straight road outside the Yu family manor, two figures were sitting in the same car and moving forward quickly.
The car windows were closed and only the occasional sound of tires rubbing against the ground could be heard.
On the way, Su Yuan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly turned around and asked, "Last time you said Young Master Yu wasn't home, so is he really not coming back for the old man's birthday celebration today?"
Her expression was full of confusion, and her eyes were shining with a seek for answers.
Situ Yefeng shook his head and replied with a somewhat helpless look, "As far as I know, the relationship between the grandfather and grandson has always been very tense."
His words were filled with sighs, and it was obviously an indisputable fact.
"So, this rumor is true?"
Su Yuan asked, with disbelief written all over her face.
However, Situ Yefeng was very cautious about this question and shook his head, saying, "Who knows? These are just rumors circulating outside. But after so many years, Master Yu never specially rushed home to attend family gatherings such as festivals. Sometimes, just having the opportunity to go back and visit is enough for him to feel satisfied."
After hearing this, Su Yuan couldn't help but sigh, "He's really strong mentally. He doesn't care what others think of him at all."
She spoke slowly, as if savoring the meaning behind each word.
Upon hearing this comment, Situ Yefeng immediately corrected him: "Please, in our circle, who dares to openly discuss Young Master Yu's affairs?"
"That's true. So, regarding today's banquet, should our strategy be to try to please Master Yu, or would it be better to maintain a neutral attitude?"
Finally, Su Yuan raised a more pragmatic question and turned to Situ Yefeng for specific advice.
"The best policy is not to offend either side."
After saying this, he revealed a bitter smile.
Feeling the helplessness deep in the heart of the man next to her, Su Yuan could only sigh helplessly.
Indeed, it is already difficult to survive in the cracks, and you have to be careful at all times and act according to other people's wishes.
For a moment, the car became extremely quiet, and the atmosphere seemed to be frozen, making people feel a little depressed.
It was not until the parking attendant came forward and politely reminded them that they had arrived at their destination that the two people seemed to have just woken up from a dream.
Today's birthday party was completely different from the grand style of the past. It was actually held on a lawn in the manor.
Situ Yefeng calmly took two glasses of blood-red wine from the neatly dressed waiter, and handed one of them to Su Yuan, who was also dressed exquisitely.
"Don't ask me yet. I find it quite fresh and unexpected."
Although the old man of the Yu family is almost eighty years old, he is still full of energy. It is simply unbelievable?
Su Yuan casually looked around the venue and asked in a soft and gentle voice, "Has the gift we prepared been delivered to the designated location?"
After receiving the other party's affirmative nod, Su Yuan felt relieved.
She smiled and said, "Since there aren't any omissions in basic etiquette, there's no need to worry too much about other miscellaneous matters for now, right?"
It would be better to take this opportunity to find out if there are any potential business cooperation opportunities.
After all, Su Yuan has always been a very realistic person. He knows that he cannot make a living in the long run by selling antiques alone. Apart from the small factory that can be called a real industry, he has almost no other source of income.
I still have some unused funds on hand, and I'm going to see if I can find a safe place to invest the money. Although I don't dare to expect to make a fortune in a short period of time, I also hope to get a certain amount of profit steadily.
Seeing that his female companion was thinking almost entirely about money and interests, even Situ Yefeng, who was usually gentle and sophisticated, felt speechless.
He had no choice but to point towards the northwest and reminded:
"We can stay there for a while, but you must always be alert to any potentially hostile faces around you. After all, I'm your only reliable companion here today."
The implication is that unless there are any emergencies or troubles, the Situ family, as friends and partners, will certainly do their utmost to provide protection and support.
After hearing this, Su Yuan just nodded slightly to show her understanding and acceptance, and then walked slowly towards the crowd gathering area with the cup in her hand.
However, what was strange was that she did not immediately go forward to chat and socialize with other guests, but stood quietly where she was, and began to carefully analyze and observe the various changes in the current situation in the venue.
However, she never expected that her silent contemplation would become another pleasing sight to many onlookers.
A rich kid who looked lazy and frivolous walked up to him with a smug smile on his face.
Even though today is Mr. Yu’s birthday, he still didn’t dare to be too presumptuous, after all, there were many elders and important figures present.
His eyes quickly fell on Su Yuan.
"Miss, you seem quite lonely standing here alone."
He pretended not to notice the red wine in Su Yuan's hand, and stubbornly handed over his glass of brightly colored cocktail, hoping to attract her attention.
Not far away, several second-generations from wealthy families gathered together in a small circle, betting on something with great interest.
"How many moves do you think He Shao can take on her?"
One of them asked, a sly glint in his eyes.
"I'll bet on three moves."
Another person immediately responded and said confidently.
"So fast!"
The person next to him was obviously a little surprised, but there was a hint of ridicule in his tone.
After saying this, the young men smiled knowingly, as if they were full of anticipation for what was about to happen.
Just when Su Yuan was still in a daze, she suddenly found someone blocking her way.
Looking at the man in front of her standing there with an enthusiastic look on his face, she subconsciously raised the wine glass in her hand, nodded politely, and then wanted to turn around and leave.
The rich boy reached out to stop her. This action made Su Yuan feel a little unhappy. She frowned slightly and looked at him in confusion.
"Miss," he said, "My name is He Ming, and I'm the director of Hexuan Group. Would you mind meeting me?"
Although he was not the one with the greatest inheritance rights in the family, he still received a lot of resources and support from the family because he was obedient and well-behaved.
