232 Meng Yu’s Purpose

Before the group could leave the banquet hall, they saw a handsome young man standing at the door and looking around calmly.

The people around him also looked at him curiously, trying to guess which family this imposing young man was from.

When he saw no familiar faces, Meng Yu’s brows furrowed slightly. He thought, ‘It seems that Guan Lei isn’t here. That’s good. I can settle matters with the Jiang couple first.’

Old Master Xiang, who had come to welcome the guests, saw Meng Yu and enthusiastically greeted him. He was a man of culture and status; it would not do for him to bow and bend the knee to just anyone.

Xiang Tian was completely different. As soon as he saw Meng Yu, a flattering smile seemed to weld onto his face, and flowery words of flattery constantly spewed forth from his lips, “President Meng, it’s the Xiang family’s fortune to have you here. President Meng, this way, please. We have reserved the seat of honor for you.”

Xiang Jun watched his son scraping and bowing and felt embarrassed. His expression soon grew serious, and he left after exchanging a few words.

Wang Yue echoed her husband’s flattering words with a few of her own. The two of them accompanied Meng Yu, one on the left and one on the right, as they entered the banquet hall together.

Meng Yu raised his right hand slightly, putting some distance between him and Xiang Tian, and said in a clear and cold voice, “I’m here today to settle some matters on my young master’s behalf. Mr. Xiang, please go ahead. I shall deal with the Guan family’s matters myself.”

Xiang Cheng was left dumbfounded. It was as he surmised. Meng Yu was the blade Guan Lei had chosen to use against him! Yet, Guan Lei was not the one who had been seriously injured back then; he was!

Xiang Cheng began to sweat profusely. At this moment, Jiang Lun and his wife, Xia Chun, arrived.

Meng Yu eyed Xia Chun, who was walking so leisurely, with some interest, and the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.

Xiang Cheng had thought Meng Yu would make things difficult for him, but when nothing happened after some time, he grew confused. Meng Yu was sipping from a glass of wine while holding a flute of champagne in his other hand. Once in a while, he would scan the crowds but do little else. In the end, Xiang Cheng allowed the stone weighing on his heart to rest.

Still, he could not continue wearing his present set of clothes. They were drenched in his sweat, and he quickly flagged a waiter, asking for directions so he could change into a fresh set of clothes.

When Xia Chun entered, she immediately noticed the young man with uncommon bearing. However, she did not pay much attention to him because she was unaware of Meng Yu’s identity.

Xia Chun knew most of the people in Rong City. If it were not someone she knew, she would not take the initiative to mingle with them.

Perhaps it was her imagination, but every so often, she thought she felt the young man’s gaze land on her. Xia Chun might have believed the young man fancied her if she were not the age that she was.

After a round of socializing, Xia Chun ended up by Wang Yue’s side. Softly, she asked, “Who’s that over there? Why haven’t I seen him before?”

“That’s President Meng of Li Industries,” Wang Yue quietly answered.

Xia Chun could not remember where she had heard of ‘Li Industries,’ but the organization’s name sounded familiar. “Which Li Industries?” She asked.

Xia Chun thought it might be some new company, but Wang Yue quickly dispelled that notion. “It’s the Li Industries under the Guan family in Hai City.”

Wang Yue’s revelation shocked Xia Chun. She might not have heard of Li Industries, but the same could not be said of the Guan Group.

“What’s the matter?” Xia Chun exclaimed in disbelief, “Has General Manager Xiang’s business expanded to Hai City? How did he manage to invite someone from the Guan family?”

Wang Yue’s worry turned into despondence. Her voice trembled as she spoke, “What business are you talking about? I don’t know what he’s doing here.”

Wang Yue thought that Meng Yu came because of the fight between Xiang Cheng and Young Master Guan.

However, Meng Yu had been around for a while, but he never brought up the incident, leaving Wang Yue unsure of his motives.

Xia Chun did not share Wang Yue’s concern. She studied Meng Yu’s delicate features, red lips, and white teeth. He was a fair-skinned boy that did not look too old. He would be a good match for Jiang Xue, and his background was much better than the Xiang family.

Meng Yu turned around and caught Xia Chun staring at him. A charming smile accented his lips, and he raised a glass in a toast to Xia Chun from afar.

Not only Xia Chun but Wang Yue was shocked by this gesture, and the latter could not keep the surprise and suspicion for the former from her steely gaze. Did the Jiang family have connections to President Meng?
