Signing In At The Civil Affairs Bureau, I Was Rewarded With A Gorgeous Wife

Chapter 172: Chapter 172: Doesn't the Wu Family Even Care for a Meal?

Song Yun slowly stopped when he heard this, and he looked up at Wu Jianzhong with a strange expression.

Although I know you, little brother, are trying to cozy up to me, does the conversation have to be this awkward?

"Just go and get some to try out yourself," he said.

Upon hearing Song Yun's words, Wu Jianzhong nodded and bowed as he filled a plate to the brim.

The most eye-catching item on the plate was an enormous chicken. Originally, the whole chicken was meant to be cooked in a pottery jar for soup on-site, but now Wu Jianzhong had taken it, and one could only imagine how the others felt looking at the now empty chicken soup.

"Delicious!"

Wu Jianzhong tore off a chicken leg and took a big bite, praising as he said, "I didn't expect them to splurge so much on ingredients today!"

With no shame, Wu Jianzhong joined Song Yun and another person, burying his head in his food. At first, Wu Jianzhong was cautious, since, after all, who really indulges in eating and drinking at an upper-class banquet? But then he thought, if the richest man in Magic Capital can be so down-to-earth, eating a meal together with him is indeed an honor!

You commoners will never understand me, Old Wu!

As a somewhat famous success in Magic Capital, Wu Jianzhong was now unceremoniously holding an entire chicken and tearing it apart. Some of his allies looked at him with perplexity. Had Old Wu gone bankrupt?

But seeing how much Wu Jianzhong was enjoying the food, they found themselves involuntarily swallowing their saliva. Was the food really that good?

Thus, some began to pick up plates and chose a few items they liked.

Suddenly, half of the people at the venue were eating heartily, and the others, although they felt like joining in, couldn't let go of their upper-class pride and could only grind their teeth and curse in their hearts.

Ye Qingqing and Chi Lu finished chatting and walked out of the makeup room. As soon as they entered the main hall, they saw a group of people eating and drinking like there was no tomorrow.

Ye Qingqing found Song Yun among these people and walked towards her husband with a smile.

Chi Lu, whether at home or abroad, often attended upper-class banquets but had never seen a scene like today's, where people were desperately grabbing the host's food, as if trying to eat their way to reclaiming the money they'd gifted.

"What are all of you doing?"

Wu Qingbo came in with a grim expression, sneezing with fury. Last night, a bunch of his freewheeling friends had thrown a bachelor party for the groom-to-be. The thought of the soft waists of a dozen women from the night before made Wu Qingbo itch inside.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than Huang Baoding flipped the table over and attacked the two bodyguards who were beating up Wu Jianzhong.

In just one minute, before people could even understand what was happening, they saw the two bodyguards slamming into a wall and fainting on the ground.

Seeing this scene, everyone at the venue covered their mouths in surprise. Was this a slap in the face to the Wu family? Definitely!

"You, you, you! Vulgarian!"

Wu Qingbo retreated two steps without changing his expression. When he saw Ye Qingqing clinging to Song Yun's arm, acting spoiled, he turned incredulously to look at his fiancée, Chi Lu.

"Lu Lu! Is this the help you've found? Who gave you the courage to disrupt the marriage between our two families!"

Wu Qingbo's eyes were filled with raging fury, as if he wanted to tear Chi Lu apart. No matter whether today's engagement banquet could go smoothly or not, the Wu family had become a big joke in the whole Magic Capital!

"Wu Qingbo, do you not realize that my engagement to you was only a marriage alliance? Did you really believe any woman would willingly marry you after what you've done?"

Chi Lu said coldly as she shook her head, "Stop deluding yourself. Even if the Chi Family abandons me, I don't want to spend my life in confusion with you!"

Chi Lu's words pierced Wu Qingbo's chest like a sharp sword; he had never expected Chi Lu, who appeared so gentle and charming, to say such piercing words when she rebelled!

"Chi Lu, today you will marry, whether you want to or not!"

A woman dressed gaudily in high heels walked in, her seductive appearance attracting many men who wanted to get to know her better, and then conquer her!

"Yu Fei, who do you think you are! Nothing but a vase my father brought home to adorn the place!"

Chi Lu, having suppressed her feelings for so many years, finally let them all out today.

"You! Unfilial daughter! No matter what, I am your mother!"

Yu Fei, clutching her chest and gasping for air, shouted, "Wait until I go back and tell Old Chi to punish you with family law!"

"Heh, just a stepmother, and you really think you're the master of the Chi Family?"

As soon as Chi Lu said this, the way people around them looked at Yu Fei changed; no wonder, that woman only seemed a few years older than Chi Lu, it turns out Old Chi went for beauty when he remarried!
