BXBX NOVEL Chapter 191: family gathering
Winter is here, and the first snow reminded Murong Chen that it's time to hold a family gathering.
Every winter, Murong's family will hold a family gathering as usual, and many people will be invited to participate, which can be regarded as the grandest banquet of the year.
After Murong Qiao received the news, he asked for leave from the school, and when he flew home, he saw that his elder brother Murong Chen was already at home.
Some changes have taken place in the home, and a lot of decorations have been added to many places as a banquet venue, which is slightly gorgeous and solemn without losing the sense of warmth.
"I'm back, Qiao Qiao." Murong Chen stretched out his arms to hug his sister.
Different from what he usually wears at home, Murong Chen chose a dark blue and black suit this time. The tailoring fit and trimmed his figure, it can be said that Murong Chen's president temperament has been improved to a higher level, and it complements his calm demeanor. The kind that young daughters yearn for.
It is worth mentioning that the cufflinks on his wrist today are still the pair of sapphires given by Murong Qiao.
The slightly shimmering cufflinks complement Murong Chen's calmness, adding a touch of elegance to him.
"The banquet will be held in the front hall later, I'm sorry I can't talk with you more, I'm going to the front to say hello to everyone." Murong Chen slightly frowned, expressing apology to his sister.
The usual banquet would not be this lively, but this year was different. After learning that the daughter of the Murong family had returned, many interested people arrived at the banquet early.
Even many people who have a good relationship with the Murong family have already begun to plan how to marry this Murong daughter to obtain immeasurable commercial value.
Now that Murong Chen is the head of the family, he must go out to socialize.
"Okay, then I'll go find my brother later." Murong Qiao nodded sensiblely.
She bid farewell to Murong Chen and went to the second floor, and began to dress up under the guidance of the makeup artist.
This was also the first time she showed up at the official banquet of Murong's family, and Murong Qiao felt a little nervous.
"Miss Murong, don't be nervous. This gathering is family-oriented, so it's okay to relax." Even the makeup artist saw Murong Qiao's nervousness and comforted her softly.
The feeling of the light makeup brush sweeping across her face made her feel a little itchy, and Murong Qiao's mood remained the same.
"Besides, I heard that Miss Murong's cousin is coming back this time." The makeup artist joked with a smile.
Family gatherings like Murong's have been going on for several years, and the makeup artist who is now dressing up Murong Qiao has also held this job for several years, so he is very familiar with this place.
Auntie?
Such a strange and blood-related title made Murong Qiao's attention suddenly diverted, and doubts arose in his heart.
But soon, Murong Qiao knew who her cousin was.
The time turned to the beginning of the banquet. While Murong Chen was greeting the guests in the front hall, he saw a woman in a black haute couture dress slowly walking in from the front hall door.
Elegant and elegant, with an aura that ordinary people dare not talk to, it makes people feel timid just by looking at it.
"She's here this time? Didn't she say she's on a concert tour?"
"I didn't expect to see her this time. It's really a surprise."
"But I heard that this one is especially hard to mess with..."
The surrounding voices were all related to her, but the protagonist who was the center of the topic didn't care at all, walking all the way in front of Murong Chen with high-profile and ostentatious steps.
"Aunt Gong." Murong Chen greeted her with a smile.
Gong Banyan took off the sunglasses on his face impatiently, "What's your name, aunt? It's so nice to call you sister."
Auntie or something, she looks old and dead.
Murong Chen has long been accustomed to her critical tone, and when she sees that the other party dislikes his title, he just raises his eyebrows. He has a good temper and doesn't look like a vigorous and resolute president in the mall.
"Thank you for speaking for Xian Yu before." Murong Chen thanked earnestly.
The song queen who helped Xian Yu clarify the plagiarism last time was none other than Gong Banyan.
Seeing that he still pays attention to etiquette, Gong Banyan shook the wine glass in his hand boredly.
No matter how many years have passed, Murong Chen's composure since he was a child has been well maintained in him, making it difficult for Gong Banyan to tease others.
boring.
"Okay, the polite words are exempted, what about the little girl?" Gong Banyan said emphatically.
She came this time to see Murong Qiao. Gong Banyan was also curious about whether it was the blood of the Murong family.
In terms of seniority, Gong Banyan and Murong Qiao can also be called relatives. Gong Banyan is the daughter of Murong Qiao's grandfather's sister. Since she realized her talent in singing, she has shined in the entertainment industry. Now she has become a generation After the song, he is sought after by others.
Another point is that Gong Banyan has been extremely favored since she was a child, and she is the only child in the family. She has always been independent, and she is not even married yet.
It's a pity that many people don't want to provoke Gong Banyan even if they talk to Murong Chen, the CEO who can see through people's hearts. Most of the reasons for this are due to her aggressive personality.
"Come down later, Aunt Gong, don't scare her." Murong Chen told helplessly.
Facing this elder with a unique personality, even Murong Chen can't do anything about it, Gong Banyan always has an aura that is not afraid of anyone, which can make anyone who meets her shy away consciously.
It's the baby's fault, Gong Banyan thought.
"Okay." She nodded without hesitation, then turned and walked into the crowd.
Murong Qiao also just got dressed at the moment, and came out of the dressing room wearing a fairy dress with a thin pink body.
Her skin is very good, so after a moment of hesitation, the makeup artist still felt that just a light makeup is enough, her hair is tied back softly and a little lazy, and only a small crown dotted on the top of her head is enough to look noble and delicate.
Murong Qiao went down the side stairs on the second floor, and both his attire and appearance attracted the attention of many people.
She's been seen before, so many people know her.
"Is she Murong Qiao?" Youdao female voice sounded from the right.
Murong Qiao followed the prestige, and saw a proud girl standing there, shaking a red wine glass with a high expression, looking at her with undisguised scrutiny, which made people uncomfortable.
"It doesn't look as good-looking as the legend..." She muttered, but everyone around could hear it clearly.
It was Xu Yang, the young lady of the Xu family who was speaking. The ancestors of the Xu family had an in-law relationship with the Murong family and later developed well, so they always took advantage of this relationship. Xu Yang is even more self-righteous representative.
To sum it up, it's very annoying.
Murong Qiao glanced at her, took a little note of her appearance, turned around and went to find Murong Chen.
But there were too many people in the front hall, Murong Qiao looked for a long time and didn't see his elder brother, but accidentally bumped into a beautiful woman.
"Sorry, ma'am." Murong Qiao apologized embarrassedly.
She was just looking around in a daze, and forgot to look at the road for a while, and she didn't expect to bump into someone.
Gong Banyan, who was hit, looked at Murong Qiao with great interest, and recognized Murong Qiao at a glance.
"Nothing, are you looking for someone?" Out of fun, Gong Banyan didn't admit his identity immediately.
She pretended to be friendly and asked Murong Qiao from top to bottom with a look in her eyes.
I have to say that the very similar faces of Murong Qiao and Murong Yan gave Gong Banyan a good impression, especially when seeing Murong Qiao standing obediently, Gong Banyan subconsciously felt love.
