Only at this moment did everyone truly realize just how terrifying the Chu Group and Gu Group were.
If it weren't for the suppression of both sides through public opinion this time, even if all the other wealthy families combined, they probably wouldn't have been able to cause any setbacks to the Gu and Chu families.
While the entire internet was still in shock, Gu Jinhuai in the banquet hall finally prepared his next move.
Chapter 79 The Finale
At the banquet hall.
Chu Yu was both amused and exasperated by the enthusiastic fans crowding around him.
The scene gradually became chaotic, and the security captain rushed over.
The security captain, holding a walkie-talkie, sternly ordered his men, "Quickly maintain order at the scene and separate Miss Chu Yu!"
At a command, security guards began to forcibly control the guests who were still enthusiastically chasing after the stars.
Why are you touching me! Do you know who I am?
"I'm from the Song Family. Do you know how expensive these clothes I'm wearing are?!"
To be honest, many of the people invited to today's banquet are high-ranking officials and dignitaries from the Capital.
Under the threat of these wealthy women, the security guards began to hesitate.
After all, these people are people they really can't afford to offend.
At this moment, the security captain received timely instructions.
Gu Jinhuai's voice came through the earpiece, "Just bring Chu Yu out; I'll take responsibility for anything else that happens."
At that moment, even the security captain, a typical straight man, was somewhat taken aback by his handsomeness.
A man who says "You do your thing, and I'll take care of things if anything goes wrong" is just so incredibly cool!
The security captain nodded excitedly, "Yes, sir! I guarantee I'll complete the mission."
After answering, the security captain's expression instantly changed, and he looked seriously at his subordinate opposite him.
"Attention everyone, make sure Miss Chu Yu gets out safely. If anything else happens, President Gu handle it!"
These words instantly reassured the security guards, who regained their confidence.
"Stop pushing, everyone! Keep things in order!"
Under the security guards' firm stance, the guests, who were initially agitated, finally calmed down.
Some of the fans, regaining their senses, stepped back and began to make way for Chu Yu, who was surrounded in the middle.
"Stop pushing, everyone. Let your wife get out of here quickly."
"Yes, yes, yes, you guys will all crowd out the goddess in no time."
The security guards took the opportunity to pull some of the guests away, creating an opening for Chu Yu, who was heavily surrounded.
Finally, with the combined protection of fans and security guards, Chu Yu managed to walk out of the crowd successfully.
Chu Yu's slightly narrowed eyes revealed a hint of suspicion.
Although she didn't know what plans Gu Jinhuai had made today, if she still couldn't figure things out by now, she would truly be a fool.
Fang Lanzhi was just standing on the stage, has disappeared without a trace.
What's even more bizarre is that Xu Mengying also disappeared.
Under the refraction of the lights, the rhinestones adorning the chest of Chu Yu's evening gown shone brilliantly.
The strands of hair hanging down her forehead were slightly curled, revealing a touch of natural beauty.
At this moment, Chu Yu once again became the focus of attention.
The beam of light overhead moved in sync with her steps.
"Look, where did all these balloons come from?" someone exclaimed in surprise, noticing the new balloons on the second floor.
Many people's attention immediately shifted to that direction.
Chu Yu, trailing her skirt, also raised her eyes to look up at the second floor.
Suddenly, many colorful balloons appeared on the second floor, filling the originally solemn banquet hall with a romantic atmosphere.
Immediately afterwards, a tall and slender figure appeared at the corner of the second-floor staircase.
Gu Jinhuai stood there, holding a bouquet of blue roses, dressed in a suit and tie, exuding an innate air of nobility.
A gentle smile graced his handsome face, a stark contrast to his previous stern and ruthless demeanor.
All the female fans in the audience were completely smitten.
However, it was clear that Gu Jinhuai's attention was focused solely on Chu Yu, ignoring the discussions and stares of others.
The scene became noisy for a moment.
But soon everyone noticed Gu Jinhuai's focused gaze.
The female guests followed Gu Jinhuai's gaze and finally realized that Gu Jinhuai had been looking at Chu Yu the whole time.
Immediately, a romantic atmosphere spread throughout the entire venue.
Xu Mengying, who was hiding behind the scenes and quick-thinking, took the opportunity to turn on the banquet hall's sound system and play a gentle symphony.
Under the expectant gazes of everyone present, Gu Jinhuai, holding a bouquet of flowers, slowly descended the steps and walked towards Chu Yu step by step.
At the same time, Meng Fuyu, who was standing in the corner and ignored by everyone, suddenly had his phone ring.
Meng Fuyu's mood was extremely bad due to the events of the day.
Upon hearing the phone ring, his expression became even more irritated.
Meng Fuyu impatiently walked to the side to answer the phone.
A panicked voice came from the other end of the line, "Young Master, something bad has happened. It seems our company has been reported for tax issues. The tax bureau officials are already at the company to audit the accounts."
Meng Fuyu's heart skipped a beat.
It's important to understand that tax issues are a major hurdle for every company.
If no investigation is conducted normally, it's fine, but once a serious investigation is launched, almost no company can be completely innocent.
Why would the tax bureau suddenly target the Meng Family?
Meng Fuyu's face instantly turned ashen. He gritted his teeth and turned to look at Gu Jinhuai and Chu Yu, who had become the focus of the entire room.
It must have been Gu Jinhuai who did it!
"Young Master? Young Master?" The assistant's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone again.
Meng Fuyu snapped out of his daze, gripping his phone tightly. "I'm heading back to the company right now!"
After saying that, Meng Fuyu hung up the phone.
He quickly spotted Wen Zhixin in the crowd, stepped forward, and pulled her close. "Something's happened at the company. Come with me."
