t that the data was wrong. 。Hu Yang raised his chin and grinned, "However, if she really dares to go to the chairman and CEO to sign, the chairman and CEO will definitely question her work ability." 。...The wealth of the Z country, three parts belong to Shen, and four parts belong to Gu Lu.
Legend has it that the first head of the Shen family was a descendant of Shen You from the Yuan Dynasty to the early Ming Dynasty, who lived in secrecy and passed down the lineage to this day.
The Gu family is said to be a branch of the descendants of King Goujian of Yue. After passing down through generations, they migrated from the south to the north during wartime and have lived in seclusion ever since.
Only the Lu family, originating during the warlord era, made their fortune abroad and returned to their homeland. They donated all their assets to wholeheartedly support the first president of Z country, contributing to the nation's founding. Over these many years, they have developed discreetly, earning the right to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Shen and Gu families.
The head of the Lu family once saved the old master of the Shen family's life, which is why there are rumors of a marriage alliance between the Shen and Lu families.
Lu's family has always had a weak network of contacts, and they are trying to capitalize on the lively atmosphere of the Shen family.
This generation's head of the Lu family has only one son and one daughter.
The second daughter found a husband who came to their home. When she gave birth to her second daughter, she had complications and died from excessive bleeding.
The eldest son was accustomed to being alone, never marrying in his life. Yet, he had a son who came from nowhere.
This is the legendary Land family's third young master.
A mysterious man, whose fame precedes him, but who has never been seen.
He was born prematurely in early July and has been sickly since birth. He wasn't even taken back to the Lu family before being quietly sent away to be raised elsewhere.
Apart from the head of the Lu family, no one knows his whereabouts.
He seems to only exist in the mouths of people from the Lu family, yet not even the members of the Lu family have ever seen him.
Over time, there were even rumors that the three young masters of the Lu family were no longer alive. After all these years, the vast Lu family business had no one to inherit it.
The Lu family ranks third among the three major clans. This is partly because the Lu family does not have as deep a foundation as the other two, and partly because the Lu family has fewer descendants.
The disappearance of the Shen family's only daughter and the whereabouts of the Lu family's third son remain a mystery. As a result, the planned marriage alliance between the Shen and Lu families hangs in the balance. No one seems to care or bring it up.
Nobody expected that at the homecoming banquet for the Shen family's precious daughter, the mysterious Third Young Master of the Lu family would actually send a gift.
The gift was extraordinary, not inferior to anything that the Gu family had sent.
Before this, I was amazed that Su He was the daughter of the Shen family and also Gu family's cousin. This background was already amazing enough, but now there is a fiancee from the Lu family.
It's truly astonishing that one person could be connected to three powerful clans.
Only Shen Zhaolin and Gu Qingcheng had ugly faces.
Though it's unknown to outsiders, both the Shen and Gu families are aware that on the coming-of-age ceremony for the eldest son of the Lu family, he publicly declared his dislike for women. This angered the head of the Lu family so much that he almost disowned him.
Whether Lu Jia San Shao's existence is a smokescreen or self-deception by the Lu family, perhaps only the head of the Lu family knows for sure.
And Su He is his and Gu Qingcheng's biological daughter, carrying the blood of both the Shen family and the Gu family.
If Su He hadn't gone missing, Shen Zhao Lin would have called off the engagement long ago.
Unexpectedly, now that Su He has just returned, the three young masters of the Lu family who have disappeared for many years have reappeared.
Shen Zhao Lin and Gu Qing Cheng looked at each other, unable to help but suspect that the person who sent the gift in the name of the Third Young Master Lu was arranged by those in the Shen family who wanted to deal with Shen Zhao Lin.
But these gifts were not ordinarily expensive. How could the Shen family afford to spend so much to plot against them
Or, does Lu really want to make this marriage happen
The woman who came from the Lu family to deliver gifts left quickly. However, Gu's bodyguard stayed behind, looming menacingly around Gu Qingcheng and Su He.
Wherever they go, they follow.
It's obvious to everyone that this is the family protecting their two daughters.
Originally, the banquet was peaceful, but now it felt somewhat strange.
Neither Shen Zhaolin nor Gu Qingcheng had expected that the Gu family would not only come to give gifts, but also bring bodyguards.
They had made preparations in advance.
If anyone from the Shen family took advantage of this situation to cause trouble, Shen Zhaolin would take care of them. It would be a grand welcome gift back to the Shen family.
Now Gu Jiaming is blatantly protecting Gu Qingcheng and Su He, clearly showing his support for them. There's also the gift from Lu Sanshao. If it was really from the Lu family, then its meaning becomes even more unclear.
No matter how much those from the Shen family might want to make a move, they'd better think twice.
As expected.
Half an hour later.
A dozen well-trained female publicists carried gift boxes and approached, saying: "On behalf of the head of the Shen family, welcome Miss home."
When all the guests saw Gu's and Lu's gifts, then saw Shen's well-ordered stationery set and calligraphy and painting antiques, they couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
After all, she was the jewel of the Shen family. The gifts from her own family were inferior to those from her future in-laws and fiancé's family. One couldn't tell if it was the Shen family being stingy or if they didn't truly value their precious daughter as much as rumored.
Su He didn't really care about these gifts.
Several gifts her brothers and parents had given her previously, she hadn't even bothered to open, let alone wear or use.
Gu Jia sent a bodyguard as a gift, which served to show their stance and protect both her and Gu Qingcheng's safety. It also signaled for Gu Qingcheng to return home first and meet them.
Three birds with one stone, nothing wrong with that.
Lu Sanshao's gift was quite meaningful, all exquisite jewelry, still sent by a young woman.
This gift, with its hint of provocation, is probably not just about the alcohol. It's likely a warning disguised as a present.
It seems that Lu Family's third young master isn't very satisfied with this marriage.
This gift from the Shen family is a blatant slap in the face.
Not only was it incredibly late, but the gift was so underwhelming that Su He suspected they had bought it after seeing the presents from the Gu and Lu families.
However, this at least shows that the Shen family is still wary of the Gu and Lu families.
Su He was there, and the Gu family bodyguard had been standing by his side all along, which made the atmosphere a bit strange.
He made up an excuse to greet the important guest and leave first. As soon as Su He turned upstairs, he heard a commotion at the door again.
All the guests were stunned. As they turned around, they saw a tall, handsome man with golden hair and blue eyes being escorted by a group of elites. Someone recognized his identity, and whispers of excitement spread through the crowd.
It is rumored that Long Mao, the heir of the last imperial family, has been thriving abroad.
As soon as Long Mao entered the banquet hall, his pair of affectionate blue eyes immediately locked onto Su He.
She wore a pale pink silk gown, with a rose that looked almost real at the shoulder. Her complexion was fair and her lips red, making her even more beautiful.
Compared to the last time we parted, there seems to be something more in her eyes.
It's just like a sapling breaking through the soil, after being washed by the rain and dew, it is finally no longer timid.
What about when you grow up!
Long Mo's red lips curled up slightly, and across the crowd, she blew a kiss to Su He.
Su He twitched the corner of her eye and pretended not to see.
However, most of the people surrounding Long Mao were unfamiliar faces. There was one person, though, that Su He recognized - it was the former vice president of Baian Group.
Su He's mind raced, an idea springing to mind.
Long Mo had already strode towards her, his long legs carrying him quickly. He leaned in softly and said, "Su He, it's been a long time, we meet again!"henxi, who was locked in a standoff with the man in black. Just as she was about to speak up for help and buy some time, Huo Chenxi suddenly moved."Let her go!"Under the urging of the men in black, Hu...
