Chapter 127 Zhang Dahua Attends the Banquet

Zhang Dahua was indeed very tired from traveling these days, so she washed up, ate something and went to sleep.

Tian Qi went to Wang Xingren's residence and told him that Zhang Hulan had sent someone to come and that they were currently resting at Wu's residence. He would bring someone back tomorrow to see Wang Xingren.

Wang Xingren asked, "How many people are here?"

Tian Qi replied: "Two people, one is Madam Zhang's niece, and the other is a servant."

Wang Xingren was surprised. "Mrs. Zhang's niece?"

Tian Qi nodded, "Yes."

Wang Xingren said happily, "Mrs. Zhang is so kind that she actually sent her niece here to personally guide her."

"Well, go back and tell Madam Zhang's niece that I'll be hosting a welcome party for her tonight at Tianhe Tower. Bring Madam Zhang's niece with you then."

"Yes, Master Wang!"

Tian Qi agreed and returned to Wu Mansion.

Zhang Dahua and her friends arrived in the capital in the afternoon, and after a short sleep, it was already evening.

Seeing Zhang Dahua coming out of the room, Tian Qi said, "Miss Zhang, Master Wang has prepared a banquet at Tianhe Tower to welcome you tonight. It's almost time now. I'll take you there right away."

Zhang Dahua knew that her aunt was working with a young man named Wang, and that he had specially held a banquet to welcome her. Zhang Dahua had to go, otherwise it would be rude.

……

When they arrived at Tianhe Tower, the waiter Ou was waiting at the door. When he saw Tian Qi leading Zhang Dahua over, he immediately led them into a private room in the restaurant.

Dong Jianyong did not enter the box. He just glanced around to see if there was anyone else in the box, and then stood guard at the door.

Wang Xingren was stunned when he saw that it was a young girl. Then he stood up to greet her, bowed and said with a smile, "Miss Zhang, you must have come all the way here. Thank you for your hard work! Please take a seat."

Zhang Dahua bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Wang, you are so polite."

After sitting down, Wang Xingren poured tea for Zhang Dahua and asked, "How is Madam Zhang?"

Zhang Dahua replied, "My aunt is fine. She has a lot of things to do and can't get away, so she asked me to come to the capital."

Wang Xingren and Zhang Dahua exchanged pleasantries while the waiter began serving the dishes. Soon, the table was filled with exquisite dishes.

Wang Xingren raised his glass and said, "This first toast is to welcome Miss Zhang to the capital."

Zhang Dahua apologized, "Sorry, Master Wang, I don't know how to drink."

Wang Xingren said, "It's okay, it's okay. Just drink tea instead of wine."

Zhang Dahua raised her teacup and clinked it with Wang Xingren's. "Thank you, Master Wang, for your hospitality!"

"Hey, Miss Zhang, you're so polite. You came all the way here to help, and I'm the one who should be thanking you."

Wang Xingren seemed very easygoing and enthusiastic. Zhang Dahua was a little nervous at first, but after talking with Wang Xingren for a while, she gradually got used to it.

Wang Xingren asked, "Miss Zhang, when will you go to teach the people in the workshop?"

"You can go tomorrow."

Wang Xingren said, "Okay, I'll go to the Wu residence tomorrow morning to pick up Miss Zhang."

Wang Xingren was chatting with Zhang Dahua about random topics. When several girls passed by the private room, one of them suddenly stopped.

The girl looked at Wang Xingren's servant and asked, "Is my cousin here?"

The servant replied, "Yes, my dear! The master is entertaining guests."

The girl listened carefully and heard a girl's voice. She frowned and asked, "Is it a girl?"

The servant nodded awkwardly, "Yes..."

The girl suddenly spoke loudly: "Cousin..."

In the private room, Wang Xingren heard the call, was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Li He?"

Li He pushed open the door of the box and walked in. When she saw Zhang Dahua sitting opposite Wang Xingren, her face looked ugly for a moment, but then it changed immediately.

Li He smiled and asked, "Cousin, who is this girl?"

Wang Xingren replied, "He's my guest, he came from Ding'an Prefecture."

Li He curled her lips in her heart, "So it was brought from the countryside."

"Why is my cousin here?"

Li He said, "I've invited some friends to dinner. Since there are only two of us here, let's go together."

Li He didn't wait for Wang Xingren to refuse, and waved to the door, "Come in, my cousin is here, you guys are lucky today."

Several young girls outside the door filed in one after another. After entering the box, they all bowed to Wang Xingren and said, "Greetings, Master Wang!"

Wang Xingren had no choice but to let Li He and the others sit down.

Li He asked the waiter to bring the food and drinks she had ordered, then sat down next to Wang Xingren and said with a smile, "Cousin, you're really busy these days. I've asked you out several times but you've always said you didn't have time. You have to drink with me today."

Wang Xingren said, "Don't drink too much. I have important things to do tomorrow."

"Busy with your braised meat again?" Li He seemed a little unhappy. "Cousin, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you should focus on your studies. Are you really planning to be a businessman in the future?"

Wang Xingren hated being nagged about his studies, so he said, "Alright, if you keep telling me who's studying, I'm leaving now."

Li He was angry, but did not dare to show it in front of Wang Xingren.

The waiter brought more food and wine, and Li He invited her sisters to eat.

Li He picked up some food for Wang Xingren and said, "Cousin, this is your favorite Songhua fish."

Wang Xingren said, "Eat quickly, I'm full."

Li He acted coquettishly, "Oh, I picked it up for my cousin and he ate it!"

The girl next to her giggled and said, "Hehe, Miss Li and Master Wang have such a good relationship!"

Li He said proudly, "My cousin and I grew up together, so of course we have a good relationship!"

A young girl enviously said, "If I had a cousin like Mr. Wang, I would wake up laughing in my dreams!"

The atmosphere at the dinner table was very lively, except for Zhang Dahua who was sitting alone.

She noticed that the lady surnamed Li glanced at her, intentionally or unintentionally. The other ladies also looked at her intentionally or unintentionally. Those glances made her feel uncomfortable and confused.

Zhang Dahua wanted to say goodbye, but that would be impolite, so she had to sit there awkwardly.

Dong Jianyong saw it all. After a while, he knocked on the door and said, "Miss, we should go back. My wife told us not to stay out too late."

"Oh, okay!" Zhang Dahua understood that Dong Jianyong was trying to help her out, so she immediately stood up and said to Wang Xingren, "Thank you for your hospitality tonight, Mr. Wang. I'll take my leave now."

Wang Xingren stood up and said, "Then I'll take Miss Zhang back."

Zhang Dahua waved her hands quickly, "No, no, I can go back by myself."

Wang Xingren saw that Zhang Dahua had servants and that someone from the Wu residence was also with her, so he didn't force her. He said, "Then I'll go to the Wu residence to pick up Miss Zhang tomorrow morning."

Zhang Dahua nodded, then left Tianhe Building with Dong Jianyong.

Looking at Zhang Dahua's leaving back, there was a flame in Li He's eyes.

The other girls were also very curious about Zhang Dahua's identity.
