Chapter 1188: Grand Banquet

Xia Weibao glanced at the game in her hand; there were still twenty accounts left to play. Honestly, she’d rather play the game.

But her mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and husband were all attending the gala, the whole family was going, so how could she not go.

Moreover, Zhong Wanshu hadn’t appeared in public for over a decade, and everyone assumed she was dead. Now she’s suddenly reappearing, what if someone picked on her?

She needed to go and protect the beauty.

So Xia Weibao nodded, "Alright then, let’s go and have some fun."

Anyway, she had control of the accounts, she could play the game anytime.

Lu Hualiang shook his head helplessly.

Lu Corporation was involved in numerous industries and had a lot of spokespersons. They would select a few representative ones to attend; so many actresses were hoping for this opportunity, yet she just said she was going to have fun.

Well, since his is hers, saying she’s going to have fun is reasonable.

Recently, Lu Corporation has been unstable, its stock almost hit the limit down, and the entire company was in a state of panic. The president, who was the core figure, had no responses at all.

Many were worried whether the company would go bankrupt or if they’d face an unemployment crisis.

Lu Corporation had such good benefits, they definitely didn’t want to lose this job.

Amidst these circumstances, the year-end gala was upon them. Everyone thought with the company’s situation, it wouldn’t be held.

Even if it happened, it would be small.

Yet they didn’t expect Lu Hualiang to order it to be grand!

This left everyone bewildered.

This was the first order the big boss had given since the company was hit. It wasn’t to save the company, but to host a grand year-end gala?

Though puzzled, since the order from above was given, they naturally didn’t dare to question it and started preparing for the event.

In fact, Yang Liu had already begun organizing it a week ago.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and the Lu Corporation’s year-end gala day arrived.

The venue was set at the largest hotel under Lu Corporation, also the largest hotel in Imperial City.

No one knew what Lu Hualiang intended. In the past, Lu Corporation’s year-end gala would book one floor and invite employees from the main company and heads from major subsidiaries to attend.

This time, the entire Imperial City Hotel was shut down for use as the banquet venue, inviting notable figures from various industries to join.

Its scale was even grander than Old Chief Fang’s last birthday banquet.

Everyone was scratching their heads, not understanding what Lu Hualiang intended.

But even if puzzled, they were still excited about the Lu Corporation’s year-end gala.

Huaxia’s largest group’s year-end gala, they couldn’t even get an invitation in the past, yet this time it’s open to everyone. If they could seize this opportunity to connect with Lu Corporation...

Although Lu Corporation seemed to be in a slump now, they all understood it was temporary. Hadn’t they noticed Lu Hualiang hadn’t made a move yet?

Among those invited were the Yan Family, but the tension between the Yan Family and the Lu Family was quite high recently, so it’s estimated they wouldn’t attend.

On the day, everyone was discussing this unprecedentedly grand gala, some debating what dress to wear, and even more speculating about the gala’s intent.

Only Xia Weibao knew that Lu Hualiang was welcoming Zhong Wanshu’s recovery and return.

Even though Lu Hualiang didn’t say it out loud, she knew he was someone who valued family greatly, whether it was Zhong Wanshu or Lu Huashan.

Well, not really, with Zhong Wanshu for sure, but as for Lu Huashan, that was debatable.
