Chapter 85: Why Should She Be Invited?

“Haha, you’ve been laying the groundwork for so long. In the end, you’re afraid that Yuning and Jiang Youyi will get back together, right?” Mrs. Xu sneered as she sized up the woman in front of her.

Zhang Meng smiled faintly and shook her head. She took the initiative to get up and refill Mrs. Xu’s tea. “I’ve never been worried about them reconciling. On the other hand, you should consider yourself, Madam.”

“For myself? What are you trying to say?” Mrs. Xu was a little vigilant.

“Ever since you appeared on the show, Jiang Youyi must hate you to the core now. When she goes to the banquet and sees Yuning, it’s inevitable that she will add fuel to the fire and say bad things about you in front of Yuning. Yuning was already angry with you because of this matter. If Jiang Youyi deliberately sows discord at this time, I’m afraid your relationship, which has just eased, will be at a stalemate again. What do you think?”

Hearing this, Mrs. Xu’s eyes gradually darkened. This woman was right. His son still couldn’t forget Jiang Youyi and hoped that the girl would reconcile with him. Ever since she appeared on the show, she had indeed completely offended Jiang Youyi. When they met at the banquet, Jiang Youyi only needed to shed a few tears and complain, then her son would definitely be angry when he returned.

“Then what do you think we should do? Do you want me to stop Yuning from attending?” Actually, before Zhang Meng found her, Mrs. Xu was very supportive of Xu Yuning attending the banquet. After all, that was Secretary Li’s daughter’s coming-of-age ceremony. At that time, the girls attending the banquet would definitely be from some top wealthy families.

If Xu Yuning could get to know a girl of equal social status at the banquet and develop his career, wouldn’t he naturally throw Jiang Youyi behind his head? However, she never thought that Jiang Youyi would be able to get an invitation. What right did she have?

The Jiang family was just an upstart without any cultural heritage. In the entire Ocean City, there were definitely many families like them. She had never taken the Jiang family seriously, so she did not expect Mrs. Li to invite Jiang Youyi.

“I have an idea that might help you.”

“Tell me, what idea?” Then, Zhang Meng got up and walked to Mrs. Xu’s side. She bent down and whispered into her ear for a while. Mrs. Xu frowned slightly. “Are you sure this method will work?”

“Madam, if you don’t want Jiang Youyi to sow discord between you and Yuning, why don’t you listen to my method and try your best? If you don’t take action first, Jiang Youyi will be a villain who sows discord between you and Yuning sooner or later.”

Mrs. Xu picked up her cup and drank the tea in one gulp, deep in thought.

On the other side, Du Meihong drove a black BMW to a secret club in the suburbs of Ocean City.

“Aunt Du.”

“Aunt Meihong, you’re here.”

“Where’s Little Bin?” Du Meihong took off the sunglasses that covered half of her face and carried the limited edition Hermes bag. She looked very impressive.

“Brother Bin is still resting. 1’11 go get him for you.”

“Why are you still sleeping at a time like this?” Du Meihong’s expression was a little ugly. She was clearly displeased. Soon, a young man walked down lazily from the five-story villa. He wasn’t young either. He looked to be at least 30 years old. His eyes were a little cloudy and there were wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

Although this man’s appearance was ordinary, he could be recognized at a glance in a crowd. He was fair, especially fair. He had single eyelids and a lot of white in his eyes. He had a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and thin lips. Anyone who saw him would think that he was a refined scum. He even had a black diamond earring on his right ear.

“Aunt, why are you here so early? Are you going to church for worship?” He thought that Du Meihong wanted him to accompany her to church.

The Du family had been Christian since the old lady’s generation. The entire family believed in Christianity. In Du Chengbin’s generation, he was the only son in the family and the only child. He was even valued and cared for by the entire family.

Actually, the Du family did not have much family background. It was just a demolition house in the countryside of Ocean City.

However, Du Meihong worked hard and relied on her own efforts to successfully marry Lu Guo’an. She flew up the social ladder and became a phoenix. There was a saying in their village that went well. When a person achieved the Dao, his chickens and dogs would soar to the sky. The Du family was an obvious example.

In the past few years, Du Meihong had already secretly used money to support her family and help her nephew buy more assets. There were more than ten houses bought in Ocean City.

Du Chengbin relied on his aunt’s financial support and Lu Guo’an’s name to open a few small loan companies and plastic surgery hospitals in Ocean City, as well as the secret club they were currently in.

Since the clubhouse was hidden in the suburbs, there was naturally something shameful here..
