Du Zhao, who was behind, was also shocked just now. If this old man collapsed in the Du family, it would be troublesome. He could not help but look at his wife. “Be careful.”
Zhao Xin patted her chest. “Who knew that his endurance would be so poor?”
“It’s all thanks to Auntie Zhao this time. Otherwise, it would have been troublesome.”
“Auntie Zhao, I’ll add another 200 yuan to your salary every month, ” Zhao Xin said as she looked at Auntie Zhao.
“Thank you, Madam.” Auntie Zhao smiled happily. “I’ll go stew the fish.”
The atmosphere in the Cui family was not good.
Cui Peng did not dare to look for Du Zhao for fear of being beaten up. He did not expect his father to be scolded. He wanted to say that he would not go at most, but when he thought of the company’s monthly report, he could not bring himself to say it. If this continued, he would not even be able to support the sisters.
“I didn’t expect those despicable people from the Du family to be…” Gu Meizhi’s face turned ferocious. “They’re actually so heartless.”
“Isn’t it all Peng’s fault?” Cui Zhanyi glared at his son. “You…”
“What does it have to do with him?” Gu Meizhi was still protecting her son unreasonably. “You’re not loyal. How can he not take after you?”
Cui Zhanyi touched his nose and didn’t dare to speak anymore.
“Now is not the time to talk about this. We have to think of a way to go to the cocktail party.” Gu Meizhi knocked on the table. “Seriously, what’s wrong with Du Juan? It’s not even a big deal. Why did she have to get a divorce…” As she spoke, she couldn’t help but poke her son’s head again. “You too.
Why can’t you even hold on to a woman? Can’t you be more careful?”
Cui Peng did not dare to refute and could only let his mother scold him.
“But what can we do?” Cui Zhanyi heaved a sigh.
“If the Du family doesn’t bring us, isn’t there someone else?” Gu Meizhi’s expression darkened as she looked at Cui Zhanyi viciously.
“Who are you talking about?” Cui Zhanyi got goosebumps under her gaze.
“Sui Yuan.”
Cui Zhanyi stiffened. “But she…”
“A few days ago, I sent someone to investigate. Coincidentally, I found out.” Gu Meizhi smiled. “I didn’t expect her to be so lucky. The rich young master she married back then is the current second young master of the Shen family, Shen Guozhong.”
“The Shen family?” Cui Peng’s eyes lit up. “The Shen family that appears on television?”
Gu Meizhi nodded. “Shen Guofu, who often appears on television, is Shen Guozhong’s biological brother.”
Cui Peng gasped.
“The eldest son of the Shen family is in politics, while the second son is in business. The Shen family’s real estate is developing very well now, and the CEO is Sui Yuan’s eldest son, Shen Chengzeng.”
“Mom, do you mean that the Shen family will definitely receive the invitation?”
“I think so.” Gu Meizhi nodded. “So, we can get the Shen family to bring you to the cocktail party when the time comes.”
“But will they be willing?” Cui Peng was still a little worried.
“That depends on our effort.” Gu Meizhi glanced at Cui Zhanyi and picked up the phone. “I’ll make a call now. Or, husband, will you make the call?” As she spoke, she even raised the phone at Cui Zhanyi.
“Go ahead.” Cui Zhanyi waved his hand with a dark face.
Gu Meizhi snorted coldly and quickly dialed a number. After a few rings, it was picked up. “Hello, this is the Shen family. Who are you looking for?”
“Hello, I’m looking for the old madam.”
“May I ask who you are?”
“An old friend..”
