Chapter 310: 304 Daily Life: Hua Di and Jojo's Wedding Banquet, Tan Meili: Former colleagues, please call me Councilor Tan!
A new day, the morning light revealed, and the prosperous city of Hong Kong gradually awakened from the noise of last night.
On both sides of the street, newspapers were prominently displayed at newspaper stands.
"Performing Arts World Mobilization, Selfless Gala Raises 130 Million in Donations!" — "Oriental Daily"
"Happy Valley Love Overflowing, Jackie Chan Does 10 Somersaults to Raise Charity Money, Gambling King's License Plate Auction Adds Color!" — "The Sun"
"Selfless Gala, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu Generously Donates 30 Million, Mr. He Matches 34 Million!" — "Sing Pao"
"Breaking a Big Stone on the Chest Appears at the Selfless Gala! Andy Lau Transforms into a 'Strongman'!"
"Stunt Driving Over Human Wall, Thrilling and Shocking the Whole Scene! Off-Key Prince Appears Unexpectedly!"
Citizens stopped one after another.
"Boss, give me a copy..."
"Boss..."
In the breakfast shop, steaming porridge, noodles, and rice emitted an alluring fragrance. Diners sat together, chatting while eating, and the topic naturally couldn't be separated from last night's gala.
The TV hanging on the wall was playing TVB or ATV news, all reporting on yesterday's gala:
"Last night, the charity event Selfless Gala came to a successful conclusion. It not only gathered the brilliant starlight of the performing arts world, but also condensed the love and strength of countless citizens."
"We saw Mr. Andy Lau's feat of 'breaking a big stone on the chest', the thrilling performance of stunt driving over a human wall, and Mr. Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's generous donation of 30 million HKD..."
On the bus, passengers were either holding newspapers or discussing.
In the subway, the crowd was surging, but even so, it couldn't stop people's enthusiasm for discussing the gala.
……
……
Five-Star Group Building.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu bit into a fried dough stick, drank soy milk, and walked into the building, followed by his secretary Fang Ting.
"Boss!" *n
"Brother Zu!" *n
Employees and brothers shouted one after another.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu nodded: "Good morning, everyone!"
Fang Ting pressed the elevator, waiting.
Xiao Fu, who was following behind, took a turn and went to the gym to lift weights, then went to find Ah Bu and the others to fight.
Coming to the office, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu heard the desk phone of secretary Fang Ting ringing.
Fang Ting answered.
"Hello... Mr. Ni? Inviting the boss to dinner tomorrow?"
Fang Ting looked at Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu knew that this Republican Party member Ni Ming must be trying to lobby him for votes again.
On September 1st, the public announcement and campaign speeches for legislative councilors would begin, and there was still a month left.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu took the phone from Fang Ting's hand: "Sorry, Mr. Ni, I'm invited to a wedding banquet tomorrow and don't have time to go to dinner."
Ni Ming: "Mr. Guan, then the day after tomorrow?"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu smiled: "Dinner must be for discussing things... but, Mr. Ni, I've had dinner with you twice, and neither time have you satisfied me. This time, have you prepared something that can satisfy me?"
Ni Ming was full of confidence: "By then, Mr. Guan will definitely be satisfied!"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Really? Then I'm looking forward to it! Three days, August 1st, in the evening."
Ni Ming: "No problem."
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu chuckled and hung up the phone.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu said to Fang Ting: "Hua Di and Jojo are getting married tomorrow, send invitations to all the police officers I usually contact..."
Fang Ting: "Including Commissioner Huang, Commissioner Lei Meng, Chief Superintendent Situ, and the others?"
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu nodded: "Invite them all... by the way, invite Chan Ka-kui from West Kowloon and his girlfriend too..."
Fang Ting nodded: "Okay."
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu thought for a while, then made a call to Mao Xiang Yang: "Brother Mao, Hua Di is getting married tomorrow, do you have time to come over for a drink?"
Mao Xiang Yang agreed without hesitation: "Of course I have time, hahaha~~"
After hanging up the phone, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu thought for a while and said to Fang Ting: "Invite the leaders of the Guangdong medical team over too."
For Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, this was not just a wedding banquet, but a gathering to connect feelings.
……
……
"Didn't you say you know Zhou Xingxing and Cao Dahua?"
Ah Mei had a "you lied to me" expression.
She had already watched "Fight Back to School" three times, and every time she watched it, she found it so funny, so she liked all three leads very much.
After all, she was an ordinary woman, and at this moment she had a feeling of chasing stars.
Chan Ka-kui looked bitter: "I do know them, but they've been too busy lately, doing roadshows every day, and even went to do charity performances."
Ah Mei: "..."
Just as she was about to say something, Chan Ka-kui's phone rang.
"Hello? Mr. Guan's secretary?"
"Wedding banquet? Inviting me and Ah Mei to go? Okay, okay, hahaha~~ Thank you!"
Chan Ka-kui hung up the phone happily and said to Ah Mei:
"Ah Mei, Mr. Guan invited us to go to the Longmen Restaurant in Wan Chai tomorrow to attend a wedding banquet... The one getting married is Liu Fuhua (Hua Di), the principal of Dade Middle School under the Five-Star Group."
"By then, Zhou Xingxing, Cao Dahua, and the others will definitely attend."
Ah Mei excitedly pounced on Chan Ka-kui: "Wow, Ka-kui, you're amazing! Mua~~~"
Chan Ka-kui was silly happy.
……
Xiao Fu was inviting his girlfriend Qi Qi to attend Jojo's wedding tomorrow.
"Brother Zu said he wanted me to bring you to meet everyone..."
"Ah?"
Xiao Fu decided: "Then it's settled, tomorrow night at Longmen Restaurant."
Qi Qi was vaguely looking forward to it: "Okay."
At this time,
Crocodile Lao drilled out from the side, giggling: "Can I participate?"
For someone slippery like him, he naturally couldn't wait to join such an occasion to get to know more people.
Xiao Fu nodded: "Okay."
……
A certain hotel,
Leung Siu-yau, her father, and her younger brother were eating with her uncle Leung Chung-hing's family.
Leung Chung-hing was relatively wealthy, so he was the kind of person who often showed off and looked down on Leung Siu-yau's family.
This made Leung Siu-yau develop a tough-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside personality.
And at this meal, Leung Chung-hing started showing off again, saying how much money he made, that he had nowhere to spend it, and then said that Leung Siu-yau's job didn't make much money, and that she might as well find a man to marry, stay at home and raise children...
It made Leung Siu-yau and Leung Siu-kong feel sick, while her father sat weakly and gently on the side, without refuting.
Ring-ring-ring~~~
After Leung Siu-yau answered the phone, she was immediately beaming.
After hanging up the phone,
Leung Siu-yau glanced at her uncle Leung Chung-hing and said with a smile to her father:
"Dad, an important person from the Five-Star Group is getting married tomorrow. My boss, Mr. Guan, called personally and said he invited you to go together..."
"Really?"
Her father was pleasantly surprised.
Mr. Guan, that was a big shot. This fundraising made all of Hong Kong see his powerful organizational ability; more than 800,000 people donated, which was simply terrifying.
And he himself directly donated 400 million!
Her father couldn't believe it: "He invited me personally?"
Leung Siu-yau nodded: "That's right, that was his call just now."
Her father laughed happily: "Good, good, good, Mr. Guan invited me personally, I naturally have to go."
Leung Siu-kong shouted from the side: "Sister, I want to go too." Leung Chung-hing on the side had a distorted face at this moment.
Although he could be considered... a billionaire, he was too far behind Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu in terms of strength.
Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu and the Five-Star Group were big shots and behemoths to him!
Now, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu actually invited her father to attend the banquet personally.
Terrible!
Big brother successfully showed off!
Uncomfortable!
……
……
Independent Commission Against Corruption.
Luk Chi-lim was sitting at his desk, sorting out some information.
At this time, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu called.
"Luk Sir~~~"
!.
"Mr. Guan, why are you so free to call?"
"Do you have time tomorrow? A brother of mine is getting married, come over for a drink..."
"Okay, I'll take a leave tomorrow and go over."
Ever since they reached a consensus on the Tan Meili matter, the relationship between Luk Chi-lim and Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu had improved quite a bit.
After hanging up the phone, Luk Chi-lim found his superior, Yu Hongsheng.
A bit of bluffing... no, it was reporting!
"Yu Sir, didn't the higher-ups ask us to keep an eye on this Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu? I heard that Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu has a brother getting married tomorrow, and many high-level police officers will definitely go... I want to take a few brothers to see and understand Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's interpersonal relationships."
Yu Hongsheng nodded: "Good!"
Luk Chi-lim: "But they need red envelopes for the wedding..."
Yu Hongsheng: "Go to finance and get 666 HKD per person..."
Luk Chi-lim: "Yes!"
……
……
A new day, night fell, and the lights came on.
Wan Chai,
Longmen Restaurant,
This was a large restaurant, decorated festively, with red lanterns hanging high, colorful ribbons fluttering, a scene of great liveliness.
In the parking lot, cars drove in one after another.
Guests came here one after another.
The entire Longmen Restaurant was booked by Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, just to celebrate the wedding of Hua Di and Jojo.
At the entrance, Hua Di was in a crisp suit, handsome and dashing, while Jojo was in a white wedding dress.
Jojo's parents stood on the side with full smiles, welcoming the blessings of every guest.
Hua Di's parents died early, so Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu naturally took on the role of "parent", standing at the door with Jojo's parents to welcome the guests.
This wasn't the first time he had appeared in such a capacity; last time at Ah Wah and Ah Nga's wedding, he also participated as the elder brother of the groom.
Chan Ka-kui brought Ah Mei and walked over with the crowd.
"Groom and bride, congratulations!"
"Wish you a hundred years of harmony and eternal union!"
"Thank you~~~"
Not long after, Xiao Fu and Qi Qi, bringing Crocodile Lao, also arrived.
"Hua Di, wish you happiness and fulfillment, have a baby soon!"
"Thank you Brother Fu!"
Crocodile Lao was wearing a suit, shaking Hua Di's hand: "Congratulations to both of you, I'm Qi Qi's father."
Then he shook hands with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu: "Brother Zu."
Then he shook hands with Jojo's parents.
Not long after, Leung Siu-yau's family of three arrived; her father was wearing his carefully selected suit, and Leung Siu-kong was even more excited.
"Wish you eternal happiness!"
Subsequently, Huang Bingyao, Lei Meng, Zhang Wenyao, Situ Jie, Dai Sir, Chan Kwok-chung, and others... arrived one after another.
Not long after, Luk Chi-lim and his men also arrived, sending blessings to Hua Di and Jojo.
After Luk Chi-lim and the others entered the banquet hall, his men began to look around, searching for Tan Meili.
They were still worried about Tan Meili's situation, fearing her undercover identity would be discovered.
But they didn't know that their boss, Luk Chi-lim, was already arm-in-arm with Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, chatting and laughing.
However, they searched for a long time and couldn't find Tan Meili's shadow.
The guests took their seats one after another.
Half an hour later, the wedding officially began, basically the same process: wedding entry, father bringing Jojo in, handing her to the groom Hua Di.
Then it was Jojo's father's turn to speak.
He was extremely reluctant, his eyes red: "I only have one daughter, you are the treasure in my heart, the most precious existence in my life. From childhood to adulthood, I watched you grow up step by step, from toddling to now standing tall and graceful, every moment is still fresh in my memory..."
As he spoke, the father's eyes were already moist, but he held back and didn't let the tears fall.
"But Dad is very happy that you found a very good husband; he is a very excellent person, and I am very relieved to hand you over to him."
Then he put Jojo's hand on Hua Di.
At this time, it was Hua Di's turn to speak. He held the microphone and said emotionally:
"Just now, my father-in-law said that I am a very excellent person. In fact, I wasn't excellent before, I could even say I was rotten. Later, I met someone who changed my life... this person is my boss, Mr. Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu."
Hua Di recalled the past in his mind.
His father left early, his mother jumped off a building and committed suicide, he was raised by three prostitutes, had no goals in life, was just a gangster, only knew how to fight and kill, and cause trouble.
If he hadn't met Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, he probably would have died on the street that time.
After following Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu let him study, taught him responsibility, spent money to cultivate him, and later, his hard work and ability were recognized by Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, and finally he successfully became a principal and gained the recognition of Jojo's parents.
Hua Di felt he couldn't repay Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu's kindness in a lifetime.
Thinking about it, tears couldn't help but flow down.
"Taking the opportunity of getting married today, I want to thank Brother Zu for his cultivation and teaching, and thank my father-in-law and mother-in-law for their tolerance..."
"I swear, I will love Jojo well, she is my angel."
He bowed to Jojo's parents and Director Director Director Guan Zu Zu, then took Jojo's hand and kissed it.
Clatter-clatter~~~
Applause filled the audience.
Soon, all the processes were completed, and the table was already full of dishes: Wealthy Reunion Pot (abalone, sea cucumber, fish maw), Dragon and Phoenix Prosperity (lobster, chicken), steamed scallops with garlic and vermicelli, steamed star grouper...
Chan Ka-kui and Ah Mei successfully sat at the same table as Zhou Xingxing and Cao Dahua.
"My name is Chan Ka-kui, from the West Kowloon Regional Crime Unit, this is my girlfriend."
"Hello."
Ah Mei curiously asked Zhou Xingxing and Cao Dahua all sorts of questions.
Chan Ka-kui looked at Ah Mei like this and was a bit jealous: "…………"
Damn, I want to film a movie next time too.
Leung Siu-yau belonged to the core "family", and happened to be at the next table from Dai Sir.
Leung Siu-yau: "…………"
Dai Sir: "…………"
Dai Sir's heart: You probably haven't discovered it yet, right? It was me who deliberately sent you over to train!
Leung Siu-yau's heart: Sorry, Dai Sir, I am now Mr. Guan's person! Don't contact me in the future, I'm afraid Mr. Guan will misunderstand!
And on the other side, Luk Chi-lim didn't know if it was a coincidence or what, but Tan Meili was less than 2 meters away at the next table.
Luk Chi-lim and Tan Meili smiled at each other.
Luk Chi-lim's subordinate Ma Yaozu and others, heart: Envious to tears, family members, Ah Li has now become the person in charge of Mingxin Hospital and a giant of the Five-Star Group, envious to tears, if I had known, I would have signed up to be undercover last time!
Tan Meili was smug: Former colleagues... little nobodies, before when I was at the ICAC, you called me Ah Li and I didn't pick on you, now I'm the person in charge of Mingxin Hospital and a future Legislative Councilor, what should you call me?
