Chapter 189: The Filter of Love

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Li Mei couldn’t help but burst out laughing when she saw Jiang Hai’s unhappy expression. She patted her husband gently and said, “You’re jealous of a junior? Can’t I objectively describe the Zou family? But in my heart, when I look at you, I automatically add a filter of love. You’re the strongest and the most good-looking. Isn’t it said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder?! You’re the beauty to me!”

When Jiang Hai heard Li Mei’s words, he was instantly coaxed into panic.

Since Si Cheng met Jiang An that day, he had left Jingdu City. It was not that he wanted to leave, but he had spent too much time in Jingdu City. The Si Corporation was about to fall into chaos, forcing him to leave.

Soon, it was the day of the banquet. Three-quarters of the upper-cla.s.s people in Jingdu City came.

The three brothers of the Jiang family also rushed back to support their sister.

After Jiang Hai introduced Jiang An’s ident.i.ty on stage, he, Li Mei, and Jiang An greeted the families they often interacted with in private. This highlighted the importance the Jiang family placed on their youngest daughter. It was also to allow Jiang An to integrate into this circle faster.

Halfway through the banquet, Mother Ning, the housekeeper in charge of the banquet schedule, appeared calm on the surface, but in fact, she ran quickly to Li Mei’s side. “Madam, Madam Zou and Madam Zou are here.”

Li Mei widened her eyes and turned to look at Mother Ning in surprise. Mother Ning nodded slightly to confirm her news.

Before Li Mei could react, two figures appeared at the door.

An old lady was wearing an old-fas.h.i.+oned cheongsam. Her white hair was combed back meticulously. Her age was quite old, but her posture was upright. She did not seem old at all. Instead, she looked like an awe-inspiring old feudal lord in an ancient painting. Although she was smiling, the heroic spirit between her eyebrows could not be ignored.

Beside her was a beautiful woman who looked to be in her forties. Her hair was tied up and she was wearing a gorgeous long dress. She was covered in jewelry and looked beautiful.

“That’s Mrs. Zou, right?”

“Yes, it’s her. The one beside her seems to be Madam Zou! It’s been a long time since Madam Zou attended the banquet. Oh my G.o.d, the Jiang family actually invited the Zou family?!”

“After Master Jiang pa.s.sed away, didn’t they say that the two families didn’t interact much? Today, the Jiang family made such a big scene, but the Zou family didn’t appear. 1 thought the rumors were true.”

“All! The man behind is Zou Bai, right? He actually came too!”

Many people in the venue whispered to each other. Li Mei and Jiang Hai quickly walked forward with Jiang An.

When Jiang An saw Zou Bai, she was stunned. Indeed, from her few encounters with Zou Bai, she could tell that he was definitely not an ordinary rich person. However, from the words and tone of others, as well as her parents’ actions, she could tell that the Zou family was more powerful than she had imagined.

When Li Mei approached, she smiled and said loudly, “What a rare guest! Madam Zou, Wen Li, long time no see.”

Madam Zou smiled and teased, “It’s been a long time. I almost thought you had forgotten about me.”

Li Mei quickly responded, “Hey, you’re killing me. I can forget anyone, but I can’t forget you. Please take a seat.”

Although Zou Bai had a high status in the business world, when it came to personal relations.h.i.+ps, seniority was important. He looked at Li Mei and Jiang Hai and took the initiative to greet them. “Uncle Jiang, Auntie Li.”

Li Mei and Jiang Hai smiled and acknowledged him. “It’s been a few years since we last met. Zou Bai has become more mature.”

Wen Li teased, “What do you mean mature? He’s just old. The young hunks of the past have almost become old cured meat.”

The veins on Zou Bai’s forehead twitched. In the end, he regained his expressionless face.

Wen Li was Zou Bai’s mother. She could joke about her son, but the others were afraid of Zou Bai’s ident.i.ty and methods. Even Li Mei and Jiang Hai, who could be considered as elders, did not dare to accept such a joke.

Wen Li didn’t really want anyone to tease her son. She turned to Madam Zou and said, “Mom, let’s sit over there. Everyone feels a little uncomfortable standing here.”

Because the Zou Family was present, the others wanted to curry favor with them, but they were afraid of angering Zou Bai. After all, Zou Bai was famous in the industry for not liking to socialize.

The elders walked in front. Jiang An and Zou Bai, the two juniors, were a step behind. Zou Yi and Zou Er followed behind Zou Bai like door guardians.

Jiang An secretly glanced at Zou Bai.

Zou Bai briefly glanced over and caught Jiang An’s small action..
