the charity banquet organized by the xu family and led by xu ruhai began after a cold wave.

as the cold currents struck and the cold winds passed through, all things began to show signs of decline. only the xu clan was covered in red ribbons, a scene of joy, forming a sharp contrast with this cold and silent environment.

the xu family had never held such a grand event before. most of the people in the capital had never been to the xu family, and even duan linbai had only entered the xu family during the new year last year.

he was too mysterious and low-key.

the banquet was held at the xu family’s mansion, and everyone who received the invitation was dressed up.

those who were invited today were all outstanding people from all walks of life, famous and rich. it seemed that as long as they were invited, it was a kind of affirmation of their status.

however, the security of the xu family was strict and would carefully check the name and identity of the invitation. even if you paid for an invitation, you could not enter.

everyone knew in their hearts that although the banquet was called a charity event, it was actually a banquet for xu ruhai to declare the return of his sovereignty.

to hold it in the xu family was already considered as the host.

even if lord xu was in control of the clan, it was hard to say who was actually in charge.

xu ruhai was clearly taking this opportunity to seize power. if this dinner went well, even if he was not the heir of patriarch xu, his position as the person in power would not be shaken.

everyone knew in their hearts that they had some expectations for this banquet.

he didn’t know if master xu would swallow his anger and silently endure it, or if he would counterattack in real time and fight him as an equal.

the banquet was held in the hall behind the xu family’s house. this was originally used for meetings in the family. the space was spacious and could accommodate more than a hundred people. at this time, it was already full of colorful lights, champagne, wine, and beautiful clothes. it was a feast to the eyes.

at this time, on the second floor, xu yufei was letting the makeup artist do the final makeup and hair.

“miss, the jing family has arrived.”

“alright,” he said. xu yuanfei combed her hair and was about to go out when xu yao rushed in and almost hit her.

“why are you in such a rush?”

“sister, xu dong has been found!” xu yao’s face was full of excitement, and his entire person was exuding a different kind of spirit. ” as expected, eldest uncle is the best. ”

” i heard that he ran to the south and was caught again. he also said that this matter had nothing to do with you and that he made his own decision. ”

” when that bastard duan linbai comes later, we’ll drag xu dong and confront him. ”

“i want him to apologize to us in person.”

xu yao ran a little too fast, and his face was red. ” sister, why aren’t you excited at all? are you not happy?”

xu yuanfei just smiled. ” no, there are so many people out there now. you have to be careful with what you say and what you do. don’t be too hasty and impatient. it’s not good if people see you. ”

she reached out and helped him adjust his clothes.

“no matter what happens later, you have to remember to stand behind me.”

” why are you standing behind you? i can protect you. i don’t believe that duan linbai and the others can turn the world upside down in our family’s territory. ” xu yao snorted coldly.

at this time, as long as he thought of duan linbai and the jiang family’s second young master’s arrogant and despotic appearance at that time, his heart would be filled with anger. this anger had been held back for so many days, and he had finally found an outlet to vent it.

this time, he would definitely give them a hard slap in the face in public.

“no matter what happens, you have to stand on my side. trust me.”

“that’s for sure,”

in fact, they had been fighting since they were little. however, xu yuanfei had blocked jing hanchuan’s head when he turned it toward him. xu yao trusted his sister one hundred percent.

“why are you still here? the guests are all here.” it was xu shunqin who went upstairs.

he was dressed in a well-tailored black suit, which was exquisite and had a cold temperament. even if he didn’t say a word, there was a sharp aura in his eyes.

it was always hard to look at him directly.

“i’ll go down immediately.” xu yufei helped xu yao adjust his tie. ” let’s go downstairs. ”

when they arrived at the hall, they bumped into the jing family who were just about to enter the hall.

sheng aiyi had not seen xu yufei for a while and this made her very depressed.

she really wanted to beat that bastard jing hanchuan to death.

it was one thing to fall out with his friends, but why did he even give his own wife the cold shoulder? did he really plan to live the rest of his life alone?

” yuanfei … ” sheng aiyi waved at her.

“auntie.” xu yuanfei smiled politely. they had registered their marriage, but they had not held a ceremony yet, so they had not changed the way they addressed each other.
