The day I lived with the nanny

Chapter 193 The Princess' Banquet

"Go, go, stop daydreaming, this invitation should be given to me, maybe I can meet a favorite prince charming at the banquet." Yin Meijian finished the quarrel with Lin Jie and rushed over to intervene after hearing Bai Yu's words .

"Okay, stop making noise." I said to everyone, and then they quieted down, staring at me blankly.I looked at them very seriously and said: "The fact that I received the chairman's invitation this time is only known within our department. If it gets out, it may not have a good impact on me. It is inevitable that some people will make irresponsible remarks, so I I hope you will keep it a secret from me."

In fact, I just wanted them to keep it secret for me when I said these things, because I didn’t want Wen Jing to know about my participation in Xu Li’s birthday party, so I planned to find an excuse to prevaricate Wen Jing’s going to Xu Li’s birthday party, if I go to the party Wen Jing's news about the matter spread to Wen Jing's ears, and I'm afraid it will not end well in the future.

After a short silence for a few seconds, everyone nodded and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely keep the secret for you, but you will really be promoted in the future, just don't forget everyone."

I spent the whole day in anxiety and uneasiness. Going to Xu Li's birthday party without telling Wen Jing always feels like cheating. Maybe I should tell Wen Jing about my going to Xu Li's birthday party. After all This is not a shameful thing, but thinking that if it caused Wen Jing's displeasure, she decided that one more thing is worse than one less thing, and she gave up this idea.

I didn't dare to take that hot gold invitation home. Although Wen Jing didn't have the habit of looking through my things, I still put that invitation together with the music box I was going to give to Xu Li and locked it in the locker. In the drawer of my desk.

When we got home in the evening, Wen Yong was rather excited. He told us at the dining table what happened on his first day at work, and he talked more about their captain Zhao Jian. His words were full of admiration. Wen Jing is an enthusiastic listener, and occasionally asks a question.

And I sat on the side without saying a word, looking a little dull, eating the food bite by bite, Wen Jing seemed to have already discovered my mistake, when Wen Yong got up and went to the kitchen to serve the meal, Wen Jing asked in a low voice: "Yixuan, what's the matter with you? Why are you so depressed today?"

"Oh, is there? No, I have nothing to do." I don't know why my ability to pretend is so weak, so that Wen Jing can easily notice that something is wrong with me.

"Hehe, you said it's okay, look where your eyebrows are drawn." Wen Jing smiled at me and pointed to my eyebrows.

"It's really all right, just a little uncomfortable." I frantically perfunctory, then lowered my head and stuffed food into my mouth, trying to hide my uneasiness.

Wen Jing didn't say much, but told me with concern: "Then go to bed early after eating, maybe you are too tired these two days."

"Well, okay." After I finished speaking, I put the unfinished meal in my hand on the table, then turned and went back to my room.Lying on the bed, I tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep, and my mind was in chaos.

The next day I still woke up in this state, and went to work in a daze.

In the evening, when I was about to leave work, I picked up the phone and called Wen Jing, telling me that there was a client who needed to be received in the evening, so that she would not have to wait for me for dinner.

Wen Jing was not suspicious, but just told me to drink less and come back early at night.

I hung up the phone, and then took out Xu Li's invitation card and the exquisite music box from the drawer, then hurried out of the company and walked to the place where Xu Li held her birthday party.

The birthday party of the children of every large family will inevitably be held as a very huge banquet, which is also a feast for the host and partners of each banquet. Although it is a birthday party, it is actually a social party for them. Because each partner can get to know more relationships at this banquet.

Xu Li's banquet is naturally no exception. Xu Ran will definitely invite many celebrities and his partners to participate in this grand banquet. Just judging by the venue of the birthday banquet, Xu Ran has worked hard. He set the venue On a luxury cruise ship in the Huangpu River on the Bund.

The name of this luxury cruise ship is the Selene. It is said that it is a cruise ship used by the British royal family. It will be decommissioned after one year. According to the royal regulations, the cruise ship is not used outside the service period. I don’t know what kind of relationship Xu Xuran used. Got the right to use this cruise ship tonight.

The Selene is 205.7 meters long, 26.78 meters wide, and has a registered tonnage of 43128 tons. The luxury and sophistication of the Selene is unprecedented.The ship is equipped with an indoor swimming pool, gym, hammam, library, lifts and a squash court.The first-class public lounge is decorated with fine wood panelling, high-end furniture and other high-end decorations, and every effort has been made to provide a level of service that has never been seen before.

I don't know how much it costs to rent this cruise ship for one night, but Xu Ran is not short of so much money. To use this ship not only needs money, but also his own face.

Such a behemoth is docked at the pier, and it can be seen from a distance. At this time, the road leading to the pier is already full of traffic, but the vehicles passing by are all luxury cars, obviously all guests attending Xu Li's birthday party .I let the car rental far away and survived, and then slowly walked towards the pier with the music box, which was not worth mentioning but was packaged in a relatively delicate way.

Luxurious cars kept rushing past me. It seems that there are not a few people who came to Xu Li's birthday party today, and I am just one of them. Perhaps, I should be the most humble one among them.

I slowly approached the pier. The sea breeze was a bit cool tonight, and it kept blowing on my face. At this time, the guests standing at the pier waiting to board the boat were waiting in line to be checked by the security personnel.

I came to the end of the crowd, stood there waiting for the inspection, looked up at the tall cruise ship, and felt that although the cruise ship was luxurious, it was like a strong fortress, trapping Xu Li firmly inside .

The flow of people gradually disappeared, and when I got closer, I found that the person in charge of unannounced visits and inspections turned out to be Zhao Jian, the captain of the security team of Escher Company.

Zhao Jian was taken aback when he saw me, maybe he didn't expect that I would come to Xu Li's birthday party, so he said to me with a smile: "Manager Wu is also here to attend Miss Xu's birthday party?"

"Yes, Captain Zhao is in charge of today's security?" I also smiled at Zhao Jian and said.

"Yes, Mr. Xu personally instructed me to ensure the safety of the banquet today. All the work has almost been prepared, and now we are waiting for the guests to board the ship." Zhao Jian stroked his cheeks boldly after speaking Hu ha laughed.

Although he was acting rough at this time, I knew that he must be a very careful person, otherwise Xu Ran would not have entrusted him with such a difficult task.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Wu, please show your invitation card, because guests who have not received the invitation letter for this banquet are not allowed to board the ship." Zhao Jian saw that I wanted to board the ship, and hurriedly stopped me , blocked in front of me.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Seeing that Zhao Jian stopped me, he hurriedly took out the invitation from his arms and handed it to Zhao Jian. He handed it back to me and said: "Okay, please get on the boat, please forgive my abruptness, because this is my job."

"Captain Zhao, you're welcome. This is your job. Of course I won't do this, so I don't have any dissatisfaction." After I put away the invitation, I said goodbye to Zhao Jian and walked up the tall cruise ship along the boarding ladder.

It is only when I am on the cruise ship that I feel how small I am. The huge deck is as big as a football field. There are already groups of guests standing on it. There are long tables around the deck. There are things and drinks for guests to take by themselves. In the center of the deck is a temporary circular stage, which is extremely luxuriously arranged. There are many flower decorations around the stage, which makes the stage even more beautiful. .

There are some natural communicators who are constantly shuttling through the crowd with wine glasses, giving out their business cards, and constantly greeting each other. I looked at my watch and it was half an hour before the birthday party started, so I came to After getting a glass of wine at the table, I walked to the edge of the deck and let the sea breeze blow me against the railing.

While I was constantly looking at the surrounding environment, a tall and handsome man came over, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, walked slowly to my side, and then said to me with a charming smile : "Hello, which company are you from?"

"Hi, I'm from Escher Company." I knew his purpose of approaching me, so I didn't want to talk to these communicators, but I still said it out of politeness.

"Oh, you belong to the Escher Company. It's not a problem to be able to work under Mr. Xu. I didn't expect you to be the CEO of the Escher Company at such a young age. I really admire you." After finishing speaking, the man took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to me, saying humbly, "This is my business card. I'm very glad to meet you here."

I took a look at the man’s business card, and it was densely written in English, because I’m not good at English, so I couldn’t understand it, but at the bottom of the card, his origin was marked in small Chinese, Tian Bo, general manager of Eric Network Co., Ltd.

"I'm sorry Mr. Tian, ​​I think you misunderstood me. I'm not the CEO of Escher Company. I'm just an ordinary employee in the advertising department." I introduced myself to Tian Bo with some embarrassment, and today Because I came to attend Xu Li's birthday party, I didn't bring my business card with me, and I didn't hand over my business card to Tian Bo.

Hearing my self-introduction, Tian Bo was obviously a little surprised. After a moment of silence, he smiled and said, "Even if you are just an ordinary employee, it is not easy to get an invitation to Ms. Xu's birthday party. It seems that you In Mr. Xu's mind, it still occupies a relatively important position."

I smiled wryly when I heard Tian Bo's words. I'm not very clear about my position in Xu Ran's mind, but I am very clear now that I have occupied a very important position in Xu Li's mind.

After seeing my wry smile, Tian Bo said suspiciously, "Could it be? You didn't come to the banquet, you were in charge of the banquet service?"

I was afraid that Tian Bo would cause even bigger misunderstandings because of my misunderstanding of my identity, so I hurriedly explained to Tian Bo: "It's not what you think, I was also invited to this Miss Xu Li's banquet, but my The identity is indeed an ordinary employee of Escher Company."

"Oh, that's right." After hearing my explanation, Tian Bo had obviously lost interest in me, and after exchanging pleasantries with me, he locked his target on a fat bald man who was more than ten meters away from us. body, and then walked towards him with a smile on his hand while holding the red wine.

While slowly tasting the red wine in my hand, I continued to look at the environment in front of me. In front of me, there was a tall staircase leading to the cabin on the second floor. At the end of the stairs was a large platform. The platform There are a few microphones on it, it seems that it should be used as a rostrum.

On the rostrum on the second floor, a man in a black suit and bow tie was silently reading a manuscript in his hand. He should be the host of today's banquet.Behind him is a tense staff coming and going to different places. They only have one task today, which is to satisfy all the guests who boarded the ship for the banquet.

After I slowly drank the red wine in my hand, I wanted to change the whiskey, but suddenly I saw the guests in front of me starting to make noise, even rushing towards the central staircase. I looked up to the end of the staircase, and saw Xu Although it has already appeared on the platform, it's just that Xu Li's shadow has not been seen yet.

At this time, the host wearing a bow tie came out, and the reader microphone said: "Everyone be quiet, now I announce that the birthday party of Miss Xu Li, the daughter of Mr. Xu Ran, the chairman of Escher Group Co., Ltd., is now beginning."

As soon as the host announced the start of the banquet, there was warm applause below, like overwhelming mountains and seas, ringing non-stop.

After the applause died down, the supporter continued: "First of all, I would like to invite Mr. Xu Ran, Chairman of Escher Group Co., Ltd., to speak. Welcome."

Then I thought of even more enthusiastic applause, and it seemed to last for a long time. I think if Xu Ran didn't speak, the applause would definitely last until tomorrow morning.
