Chapter 771: 303 joins the club, shocking friends from all directions_4

Uncle Wen also turned his attention to the grandmother.

“This is my childhood friend, Bai Lian.” Wen Zhixia glanced at Wen Zhiwei.

Wen Zhiwei took a closer look at Bai Lian, felt that the name sounded somewhat familiar, but did not give it much thought, as Wen Zhixia grew up in Beicheng, a childhood friend would also be from Beicheng.

Jiangjing had not heard much of the “Bai Family.”

She tilted her head to continue speaking with Lai Chen, not paying attention to Bai Lian.

Today, many guests arrived early at the Wen Family, and they would be uniformly arranged nearby later.

As one of the main figures of the event, Wen Zhixia was supposed to host the guests together with the grandmother and Uncle Wen, but in practice, Bai Lian had been standing with her in the living room for half an hour while most of the high-status management personnel were received by the grandmother and Uncle Wen.

Most of the younger people were talking to Wen Zhiwei and Lai Chen.

“I heard you concluded a deal with Miss Ming last time?”

“Deal is an overstatement, but you know Ming Family has recently collaborated with Zhongxing, right? I just tried to invest a bit of capital, I can’t compare with them,” Wen Zhiwei modestly said, “It’s my cousin who is really amazing, he recently connected with the manager of Little Grape private equity.”

Little Grape private equity, in just six months, had become the leading private equity in the Jiangjing area.

It seems that each person behind the management team had significant backgrounds.

“Zhiwei, do you know the inside story? Will the people from Jiangjing’s business alliance also come tomorrow?”

The Wen Family and Yue Family were also members of Jiangjing’s business alliance, and it was certain that members would attend the engagement.

“Yes,” said Wen Zhiwei, “My uncle even invited Chairman Liao, though I don’t know if he will grace the event with his presence.”

There were various receptions at the end of the year, and at such times, it’s not easy for them to invite Chairman Liao.

A group of people gathered and chatted excitedly.

Wen Zhixia was used to being marginalized by these people; occasionally she would join the conversation with Uncle Wen about business, but mostly she turned her head and talked to Bai Lian.

She passed Bai Lian a stack of exquisite pastries, “They’re not as sophisticated as what you’re used to eating, my family’s chefs are going to be annoyed to death by me.”

She had discovered last time that Bai Lian liked these delicacies, so the Xu Family brought her a box.

Bai Lian’s visit had been in Wen Zhixia’s preparation plans for a while.

Bai Lian sat beside Wen Zhixia, stretching out her hand to pick up a plum blossom-shaped crystal pastry, “It’s delicious.”

She lowered her eyes and ate two pieces methodically.

Wen Zhixia rested her chin on her hand and watched her eat.

The elderly Mrs. Wen was receiving the older generation, while from the corner of her eye she saw Wen Zhixia and Bai Lian being neglected by a group of young people, she turned her head and whispered something to the butler.

The butler nodded, walked over, and smilingly said to Wen Zhixia, “Miss, why don’t you take Miss Bai out to play? The grandmother said there’s no need for you here.”

Wen Zhixia didn’t mind being there alone, but she could not bear to let Bai Lian sit like a prisoner, so seeing the grandmother willing to let her go, she didn’t insist, “Alright, I’ll just notify Uncle Wen and the others.”

The butler led Bai Lian out first, “Miss Bai, please forgive us, the grandmother really doesn’t have time today.”

“It’s alright,” Bai Lian withdrew a snow-white silk handkerchief from her pocket, slowly wiped her hands, her eyes and brows drooping lazily, and she said unhurriedly, “Has she always been like this at home?”

Both being smart, the butler understood what she was asking, “Miss hasn’t grown up in Jiangjing, so it’s indeed difficult for her to fit into the circle. But rest assured, Miss now owns 10% of the company’s shares, and the shareholders are very optimistic about her. Second Master also values her greatly.”

Bai Lian did not speak. She followed the butler to the greenhouse, taking out her phone from her pocket.

She didn’t actually do much.

Just reached out to the butler for an invitation.

“You want an invitation?” The butler did not know what Bai Lian was up to, but still, as told, brought her an invitation, the engagement banquet of the Wen Family and the Yue Family.

Bai Lian took it and placed it on the table in the greenhouse.

She didn’t do much, just posted a moment on social media.

Miss Bai, who had never posted a moment before, swept through Jiangjing with a single update.
