Chapter 724: Chapter 307: He’s so saucy!

Mr. Gu was somewhat frantic, "Ha! Am I that bad?"

He looked fiercely imposing, but unfortunately, neither of the two women in front of him was afraid.

"Am I not bad?"

Wang Lezhi glanced at him sideways and sneered, "Then why don’t you get me a ’horse-faced’ skirt just like the treasure’s?"

Mr. Gu instantly felt as if his head was as big as a bucket, "Didn’t I find out for you this afternoon? Our Jinling Brocade Institute makes them, you can have as many as you want when we go back..."

"I don’t want them!"

Wang Lezhi folded her arms, turned her head in a huff, playing the classic ’you can’t appease me’ card.

"I want it now! Or by tomorrow at the latest! If you can’t persuade the darling to lend me her dress, I’ll take her back to my mother’s house this evening, and we can reconcile after the New Year!"

Planning to return to her mother’s house again?

Gu Tongshu felt a surge of anger – Wang Lezhi, how many times have you threatened me with this? Today...

Well, forget it, today is not a good day to get angry.

It’s just a set of clothes, borrowing it shouldn’t be a big deal, right?

Gu Tongshu subconsciously turned his head to glance at his darling daughter, but before he could open his mouth, he was immediately warned by her menacing glare – Dare to suggest it and see what happens?

Those clear, large eyes seemed to hide wind blades and frost swords, frightening.

Mr. Gu didn’t hesitate for half a second and followed his conscience.

Then he turned his head again, hoping to negotiate further with his wife, but just as he turned, Wang Lezhi had a large tear hanging at the corner of her eye, looking down at her feet with a pitiful self-pity.

With a smack, Gu Tongshu slapped his forehead.

Does it hurt? No.

Is it shocking? Definitely, his brain might as well be turned to mush...

Coincidentally, at that moment, his mother came over with his mother-in-law, Cheng Lihua, laughing heartily, waving at them from seven or eight meters away.

The impressive Mr. Gu was so anxious that his scalp was numb, nearly exploding.

He hurriedly begged in a low voice, "Darling, you have to give me some time to think of a solution, right? There are so many people here, how about some face? I promise I’ll do my best for you!"

"Really?"

Wang Lezhi immediately broke into a smile, cunning as a fox who had caught a chicken.

Gu Jiuyue rolled her eyes on the side, quickly patching things up: "Anyway, you two better not conspire against me!"

"We won’t, we won’t!"

Wang Lezhi stepped forward, hugging her treasure and cheerily promised, then immediately turned to Gu Tongshu with a suggestion right in front of her, "Go and see if you can persuade Su, whether we’ll both be satisfied depends on your intelligence~~~"

"Ah?!"

Gu Tongshu’s eyes widened in horror, a wave of hot blood burst in his head, shattering all his inhibitions.

Good Lord, on a day like this I’ve to beg him?

Do you have any idea of the humiliation I feel?

But just then, a warm greeting from his mother came from three meters away, "Little princess, baby!"

Mr. Gu’s face changed instantly, "Deal! If I can’t handle that brat, I’ll turn in my head! But you’ve got to hold off the guillotine, don’t behead me ahead of time!"

Truly, not even daredevil commandos were as resolute and courageous as him.

"Mr. Shu is awesome! Looking forward to your good news~~~"

Wang Lezhi smiled contentedly, leading Gu toward the two old ladies.

"Phew..."

Old Gu let out a heavy sigh of relief, then casually scanned the room to make sure nobody dared to come close, maintaining his image, then confidently straightened his collar once more.

Without the irresistible forces, Mr. Gu was still the boss, and Mr. Shu was still the master!

But it wasn’t long before he started worrying again – Su Huai, that Puppy, with a heart as black as his hand, sly as a dog, if he were to show up barehanded, wouldn’t it be asking for trouble?

He needed to find a pretext, an excuse...

Of course, it was impossible in the short term, the upcoming scene would keep him busy.

"Next, we invite our Mr. Gu to say a few words!"

Zuo Zongcai was still dutifully following the agenda, having no choice, inviting so many guests yet the guest of honor slipped away after a word; as the father, he had to make some stance.

Gu Tongshu gathered his thoughts, beaming as he headed for the stage, the picture of ebullient joy.

Su Huai wanted to hear none of his nonsense, made a break for it, and returned to the side hall.

Today’s birthday banquet was held in the hotel’s largest banquet hall, the Tang Dynasty, which was originally a single large hall and had been divided into three sections: a semi-theater-style main stage in the center, an adult dining hall on the right side, and a VIP room for class reunions on the left.

It was known as a VIP room because it was decorated like a KTV, with a small stage in the front, followed by a viewing and resting area with plenty of sofas.

In the middle was the cold food area, strictly self-serve.

The rear section had two rows of long dining tables, with the middle adorned with flowers, providing seating on both sides.

Overall, it lacked privacy but offered freedom, quite in line with Su Huai’s tastes.

When he entered from the side, the room was still empty, so he lazily circled around, checking the seating.

Two long tables could seat 48 people total; on the walls at either side of the middle section, small partitions surrounded by green plants provided seating, along with the sofas at the front, easily accommodating 80 people.

Good, more than sufficient.

And since the banquet hall was separated by a theater, it wasn’t easy to go back and forth between the two areas, so he was expecting a peaceful meal.

At that moment, Su Huai heard a click behind him, the side door connecting to the theater opened, and a noisy, enthusiastic discussion was getting closer, so he promptly struck a cool pose.

Holding up a glass of champagne, he casually leaned on the edge of the table, right hand with a glass, left hand in his pocket, facing sidelong towards the door...
