Chapter 852: Control the Crowd
Other than An Rao, who was satisfied with eating under Bo Xiao’s care, everyone else felt a little tasteless at this banquet.
Especially the table of juniors where Xia Wanyuan was sitting at.
Old Madam Wei had just announced a while ago that she was going to transfer her power to the next generation at the end of the year. Now that she had so openly acknowledged Xia Wanyuan, it was impossible not to think about it.
Fortunately, Xia Wanyuan had just called her Grandma, so they were a little relieved.
Old Madam Wei had three daughters, and her eldest and second daughters all had their husbands marry in. Hence, Wei Yu, Wei Yang, and the other juniors called Old Madam Wei ‘Paternal Grandma’. They were the direct descendants of the Wei family.
And Xia Wanyuan, this maternal granddaughter, was ultimately separated by a layer.
After the banquet, Jun Shiling was about to leave.
“Zimu, Wanyuan, follow me to send CEO Jun off.” Old Madam Wei supported herself with her walking stick and stood up with Jun Shiling.
Wei Yu gritted her teeth as she watched from the side. Why shouldn’t I send him?!! Who does Xia Wanyuan think she is?!
Everyone had different thoughts. Jun Shiling had already walked out of the hall accompanied by Old Madam Wei.
“Old Madam Wei, do stop here.” After leaving the courtyard, Jun Shiling turned and nodded at Old Madam Wei.
“CEO Jun, take care. Thank you for giving me face today, CEO Jun.” It was a very glorious thing for Old Madam Wei to have Jun Shiling attend the banquet personally.
“You’re welcome.” Jun Shiling nodded slightly and glanced at Xia Wanyuan, who was standing beside the Old Madam, before looking at Yu Qian.
Yu Qian looked straight at Jun Shiling with a warm smile. Jun Shiling narrowed his eyes slightly.
Their gazes met for only a moment. Jun Shiling retracted his gaze and turned to get into the car.
Seeing Jun Shiling’s car gradually disappear, a dark light flashed across Yu Qian’s eyes.
“CEO Jun is really a very outstanding person.” Yu Qian looked at Xia Wanyuan. “Isn’t that right, Sister Wanyuan?”
Xia Wanyuan ignored him and stood beside Old Madam Wei. “Do you need me to send the guests out?”
Old Madam Wei looked at Xia Wanyuan, who was standing gracefully with a carefree aura, and an obvious smile appeared on her wrinkled face. “Okay, I’m tired too. I’ll go back and rest first. I’ll leave the matters inside to you and Zimu.”
The butler supported the Old Madam and left. Xia Wanyuan tidied up the jewelry on her wrist and walked into the hall.
After Xia Wanyuan came to the modern world, she did not like to participate in banquets. She found it noisy.
However, that did not mean that she was not good at socializing.
Be it in her previous life or current life, she had always been mediating in the whirlpool of power. The situation that she had learned in the Wei family a while ago and she also had been influenced by Jun Shiling for a long time.
Through the actions of the people present and the information they revealed, Xia Wanyuan could basically guess their identities as ordinary people.
Xia Wanyuan walked in the hall with a glass of wine and chatted with people from all walks of life.
At first, when everyone saw the granddaughter that the Wei family had just acknowledged come to propose a toast, they could not say that they looked down on her, but they did not take Xia Wanyuan seriously.
However, Xia Wanyuan’s ability to control the scene was too strong. When they spoke to her, even figures who had lived in the political world would easily be led to her rhythm.
When the banquet ended, everyone would actually come and bid farewell to Xia Wanyuan in unison.
As Yu Qian sent the guest out, he looked at the calm and smiling Xia Wanyuan beside him. His gaze changed, and it was unknown what he was thinking.
“Sister, you’re really amazing.” An Rao and Bo Xiao were about to leave too. An Rao looked at Xia Wanyuan with admiration. She had always known that Xia Wanyuan was very amazing, but every time she saw Xia Wanyuan control the entire scene with her own eyes, she would still exclaim in her heart.
“I brought you roasted lamb leg and sent it to your house,” Xia Wanyuan whispered.
“Love you Sister, I’ll go first.” Hearing that there was delicious food, An Rao was overjoyed and waved at Xia Wanyuan.
“Sister, Mr. Bo, take care.” An Lin had come over at some point and wanted to grab Yu Qian’s arm. Yu Qian raised his hand and waved at the servants, avoiding her actions.
An Rao looked at An Lin, who looked like she wanted to marry into a rich family, and was a little speechless. For the sake of Mother An, she wanted to remind her, but Bo Xiao pulled her away and did not even look at An Lin.
“Senior…” An Lin wanted to say that she wanted to send the guest away with Yu Qian, but she was interrupted by Yu Qian.
“You’re not feeling well. Go and rest by the side first.”
An Lin could only retreat to the side reluctantly and watch Xia Wanyuan and Yu Qian send all the guests out of the courtyard.
Yu Qian looked at the time. It was already midnight. “I’ll send you back.”
“There’s no need.” Xia Wanyuan looked up and saw a familiar car slowly driving over.
Yu Qian looked at the car in the distance and narrowed his eyes. The corners of his lips curled up imperceptibly. “Okay, you’ve worked hard. Rest well.”
Xia Wanyuan got into the car. However, for the first time, Jun Shiling’s gaze was still outside after she got into the car.
“This person is a little strange.” Jun Shiling frowned slightly. This Yu Qian actually made me feel a hint of danger. No one had ever made me feel this way.
