"Head of the Shi family, Shi Gongyuan!"
The moment he saw the middle-aged man appear, Meng Wu felt a little relieved.
After all, according to her father, although this guy acted unscrupulously in secret, he was very concerned with face in front of others.
It is impossible for such a small thing to affect his image in front of everyone.
Sure enough, after understanding the situation at the scene, Shi Gongyuan immediately glared coldly at Shi Lang and others.
"Didn't I ask you to be responsible for the safety of the banquet? What are you doing with people here now?"
Shi Lang heard this, but his face showed some indifference.
With their Shi family's current status, who would dare to come and tease the tiger's beard without fear of death?
But he didn't dare to really refute, he just lowered his head and said nothing.
Growing up, he was most afraid of his father.
Although he considers himself ruthless, he pales in comparison to his father.
And when Shi Gongyuan saw his ostrich look, anger rose in his heart.
Especially the heavy makeup on his face made the corners of his eyes twitch slightly.
If he hadn't been the only son, he would have simply slapped him to death.
Sometimes he doubted whether this thing was his own.
It's okay if he doesn't have a city government or a strategy. Now he can't even win a woman.
If you are still embarrassed in front of so many people, how can you trust Lineage to this thing in the future?
Shi Lang also saw the anger in his father's eyes and knew that he was not popular in his heart, so he lowered his head in disbelief.
But he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him. Instead, he felt that his father was too old-fashioned.
If he becomes the head of the family, he will definitely change the atmosphere of the entire family!
Fortunately, Shi Gongyuan doesn't have the ability to read minds. Otherwise, he would have killed this guy with one palm and started practicing the trumpet again.
But even so, he didn't like it no matter how he looked at it, so he simply yelled angrily, "Get away, don't embarrass me here."
Shi Lang's face changed slightly. Although he was a little unwilling, under the persuasion of others, he walked down the slope and walked aside.
But his eyes were still staring at Ling Yun. Judging from the coldness in his eyes, it was obvious that he did not intend to let him go easily.
Shi Gongyuan naturally knew the virtues of his son. He glanced at Ling Yun and found that he was a young boy whom he didn't recognize. He didn't bother to pay more attention at the moment.
He just looked at Meng Wu with a smile, "Niece Meng, didn't your father come over today?"
Meng Wu naturally heard the probing meaning in his mouth, and he shook his head slightly and replied calmly.
"Master Shi, my father caught the cold yesterday, so it is inconvenient to be here today."
"Please don't be offended, Master Shi."
Shi Gongyuan Hearing this, the smile on his face did not diminish at all, but an unknown cold light flashed deep in his eyes.
Wind chill? This statement can probably deceive a three-year-old child.
As a Spirit Conduit Realm strong man, he has been protected from cold and heat for a long time, so how can he be infected by a mere wind and cold?
It seems that the old guy Meng Family is still holding on to the idea of lucky and intends to continue to delay.
Shi Gongyuan couldn't help but sneer in his heart, want to be a wallflower?
Then he would have to force him no matter what.
Then he pretended to have a "regretful" expression, "That's such a pity. I originally wanted to have a good relationship with Brother Meng from the previous generation."
"It seems that this opportunity can only wait until next time."
Meng Wu Although he was disdainful when he heard this, he still couldn't help but say a few polite words when he remembered his father's explanation before going out.
His father expressed regret that he could not come in person this time.
Shi Gongyuan immediately laughed and waved his hand to indicate it was okay.
"Although today is the birthday party for an old guy like me, the leading role must be left to young people like you!"
"Young man, why don't you come over here and have a good exchange of feelings with Miss Meng."
"No matter what, we will be considered a family in the future."
Shi Lang looked happy when he heard this, and immediately walked over.
Although Meng Wu also noticed the strangeness in the other party's words, he didn't think too much about it.
Looking at Shi Lang, who was posing next to him like a monkey in floral clothes, a trace of disgust flashed through his heart.
But in front of Shi Gongyuan, I also resisted the urge to have a bad mouth.
But he didn't give the other party a good look. After saying a few words, he turned away directly, leaving only the back of his head.
At this moment, Shi Lang also felt a little unhappy. For so many years, no matter what he wanted, he could get it easily.
But this woman alone made him feel a little frustrated for the first time.
Had his father not given him a stern warning against using those methods.
He had already given this arrogant woman a taste of his power!
But right now, he has no choice.
Seeing his son's useless appearance, Shi Gongyuan couldn't bear to look any further.
He immediately coughed and started to say.
"Niece Meng, it's almost time now, and the banquet should officially begin."
"Your father usually speaks the opening words. Since he didn't come today, my niece will have to do the hard work this time."
Meng Wu couldn't help but be slightly stunned. Looking at the kind smile on Shi Gongyuan's face, he didn't know whether this was true or not.
But after thinking about it for a while, I didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so I agreed casually at the moment.
Then he turned to look at the "dumb" Ling Yun, and said in a threatening manner, "Just sit here and don't move around, or else, be careful of those guys catching you!"
"Don't worry, I'll take you out of here after I take care of this."
After saying this, she didn't wait for his response. She avoided Shi Lang who came up to her in disgust and stepped onto the high platform.
Shi Gongyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and followed him.
But in the dark, a strange smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.
But what he didn't know was that this scene happened to be watched by Ling Yun in the corner.
However, he had no intention of stopping or taking action. He casually picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth leisurely.
His eyes glanced around the deserted corner, with a hint of a good show on his face.
It looks like things are going to be lively here tonight.
The two maids on the side suddenly looked dissatisfied when they saw the inexplicable smile on his face.
In order to protect him, his own lady even did not hesitate to offend the Shi family.
But the good thing about him was that not only did he have no intention of helping the young lady, but he was still eating and drinking here heartlessly.
Fortunately, my lady ordered them to protect this guy from being captured by the Shi family.
If I had known this earlier, I might as well have asked the Shi family to take this guy away!
