Chapter 98 98. Bloody murder caused by apology

The sixtieth birthday party of Mr. Gu was very successful. Many people came to the scene and at least thirty tables were set up. It seems that Gu Wenli and Wen Qin put a lot of thought into this birthday banquet.

However, Qiao Zhenzhen was a little puzzled. Didn't they say that all the relatives of Mr. Gu were separated and lost contact? How come there were still so many people? Didn't Gu Wenli and his family invite everyone they knew? This... they have good relationships.

This was actually Wen Qin's idea. She was the one who advocated a grand party. I don't know if it was to collect donations, but she invited everyone who had a slight relationship with their family. She also spent a lot of time to find out the whereabouts of Mr. Gu's former students. As long as they could be contacted, they were invited.

To this end, Wen Qin even spent thirty yuan to buy a new piece of fabric and made a new cheongsam, but she didn't expect that she was ridiculed by Qiao Zhenzhen before she could show it off.

In this era when the per capita income is only in the double digits, thirty yuan of fabric is really not bad, and most people can only wear clothes worth more than ten yuan.

Wen Qin, who was originally ready to show off, lost her mood in an instant.

Before going out to the restaurant, Wen Qin seriously considered whether to go back to the house and change into a more expensive dress, but if she changed and was seen by Qiao Zhenzhen, wouldn't she think she was guilty? How could this be possible!

Finally, Wen Qin went out wearing her new cheongsam, but she was not in the good mood she had early in the morning. It was all because of that country girl Qiao Zhenzhen. Wen Qin wondered if she and Qiao Zhenzhen were not compatible, otherwise why would she be in a bad mood every time she saw Qiao Zhenzhen.

Yun Shu was in an even worse mood, because Xia Ming had just warned her not to be hostile to Qiao Zhenzhen, and even advised her to go with him to apologize to Qiao Zhenzhen after dinner.

"Apologize? I apologize to her?" Yun Shu simply doubted whether she had heard it wrongly. It was Qiao Zhenzhen who had mocked and insulted her before, and Qiao Zhenzhen should have apologized to her.

Xia Ming was very dissatisfied with Yun Shu's reaction, frowning and saying, "Yun Shu, you have always been well-educated and sensible, why are you so ignorant now?"

Yun Shu: I am ignorant?

Until the end of the banquet, Xia Ming saw Qiao Zhenzhen and her husband had already walked out of the restaurant and were about to leave, so he hurriedly pulled Yun Shu and strode after them.

"Hello, Comrade Qiao Zhenzhen, my name is Xia Ming, my father is the current director of the Organization Department, and Yun Shu had a misunderstanding with you at Gu's home before, so I brought her here to apologize to you." Xia Ming stood in front of Qiao Zhenzhen and Song Jin, like a polite gentleman.

However, Yun Shu stood beside him, and her smile was uglier than crying, and Qiao Zhenzhen felt embarrassed for her.

Qiao Zhenzhen and Song Jin were waiting for Zhao Dagang at the door of the restaurant. He had just gone to the bathroom, and then saw Xia Ming coming with Yun Shu.

Qiao Zhenzhen thought that Xia Ming's self-introduction was quite "interesting", and he also focused on introducing his father's position, as if he was afraid that others didn't know who his father was.

Qiao Zhenzhen complained in her heart but didn't respond. Song Jin glanced at Xia Ming and felt a little unhappy, because Qiao Zhenzhen didn't tell him what happened in Gu's hometown. If others hadn't taken the initiative to come to the door, he wouldn't know what misunderstanding had occurred between his wife and Yun Shu.
