The main thing is to make money, and the rest is just a matter of convenience.

Chapter 368 The reception banquet

On the way, Hua Jingxing told Hua Yan about the situation in Shengjing, but did not mention the frustrating things.

Hua Jingxing drove the car directly to the Xilai Hotel. Before the car stopped, he saw a group of people rushing out of the hotel.

Huarong got down from Shengfang's arms and ran towards Huayan with her short legs.

"Sister, Guoer misses you so much."

"Haha! Sister misses Guo'er too."

Hua Yan picked up Hua Rong and kissed her on her little face.

Huarong gave Huayan a kiss.

In the crowd, Hua Yan saw Taiji at a glance.

At this time, Taiji was staring at Hua Yan intently. He also wanted to come over and hug Hua Yan and kiss her on the face.

Hua Yan sent a message to Taiji: "Brother, I finally see you. I give you a kiss from afar."

After saying that, Hua Yan really pursed her lips.

Taiji looked at Hua Yan shyly, not knowing where to look.

No one else noticed the interaction between Hua Yan and Taiji. They all looked at Hua Yan expectantly, hoping that she could see them.

Haitao and Chaiyuan shouted in unison: "Jiuer! I miss you so much."

After saying this, the two of them looked at each other. There was no hostility, but rather a feeling of mutual admiration.

Hua Yan held Hua Rong in her arms and walked in front of everyone. She actually saw Liu Fengzhi in the crowd.

Seeing Liu Fengzhi's changeable face, Hua Yan's good mood all the way disappeared.

Looking back at Hua Jingxing, his eyes were full of helplessness.

Hua Yan acted as if she didn't see Liu Fengzhi and handed Hua Rong to Hua Jingxing. She hugged Chu Xiu first, then old man Fulu, Hai Yitian and Sheng Fang, and finally her Boy Scout. Taiji was the last one and was the one who hugged the longest.

"Yan'er, I miss you."

Taiji spoke softly in Huayan's ear.

"Brother, I miss you too."

Hua Yan hugged Taiji, her tone filled with endless longing.

Sheng Fang was very happy to see that Hua Yan and Tai Ji’s relationship was the same as other children.

However, she also discovered the problem, that is, Hua Yan hugged everyone except Liu Fengzhi.

She wanted to remind Hua Yan, but when she thought that Chu Xiu and the others were there, it was not her turn to remind them, so she did not do anything annoying.

Hua Yan turned around and took Hua Rong from Hua Jingxing's arms and prepared to walk into the hotel. No one reminded Hua Yan of the existence of her mother Liu Fengzhi.

Only then did Sheng Fang realize that Hua Yan and Liu Fengzhi seemed to have some irreconcilable conflict.

Liu Fengzhi looked at Hua Yan hatefully, with a look of displeasure and viciousness in her eyes.

Hua Yan didn't have time to deal with her. Just looking at her was annoying enough, and she didn't want to be upset anymore.

A group of children surrounded Hua Yan and asked her all kinds of questions, and the adults couldn't come forward.

"Jiu'er, the welcoming banquet is ready for you. The imperial chef prepared it especially for you today."

Fulu said with a smile.

"Grandpa Fu, we're not going to do business anymore. You can do it exclusively for me. It's meal time now, so you won't be affected."

Hua Yan was happy to see Fu Lu looking energetic.

"Haha! No one is more important than our Jiuer. I said I would close the shop today to welcome you back, but your dad said he would not agree to it and that you would be angry."

Fu Lu looked at Hua Jingxing with dissatisfaction.

"Grandpa Fu, I won't be angry, but I will feel bad about the money."

Hua Yan deliberately acted like a money-grubber and even pretended to twist money with her hands.

"Haha! You little money-grubber, even more money-grubber than your uncle Fufeng."

When Fulu mentioned his son, although his tone was full of disdain, the smile on his face could not deceive anyone.

Hua Yan took Fu Lu's arm and helped the old man walk inside.

"Uncle Fu, who has a grudge against money? What's wrong with being a money-grubber? At least they won't waste money."

Hua Yan looked like she had a lot of ideas.

"Haha! That's nonsense. Good! You are right."

Fulu reached out and rubbed the top of Hua Yan's head lovingly.

Liu Fengzhi, who was following behind, had a sinister look on his face and looked very puzzled.

She just didn't understand what was so likable about Hua Yan. She couldn't see it at all.

Apart from talking back to her, she would isolate her. She was fed up with this girl.

When she arrived here yesterday, what she heard most was that everyone would talk about Hua Yan no matter what.

Sheng Fang walked behind Liu Fengzhi, wanting to say something but having no suitable topic, so she just followed the crowd somewhat awkwardly.

Chu Xiu already knew Liu Fengzhi's character and didn't bother to pay attention to her. If she went too far, she might even be mocked.

So, in order to avoid getting into trouble, Chu Xiu simply stayed away from Liu Fengzhi. When he saw Sheng Fang next to Liu Fengzhi, he didn't even come over.

Hua Yan sat next to Fu Lu, Hua Jingxing sat next to Hua Yan, and Sheng Fang pushed Liu Fengzhi to sit next to Hua Jingxing.

Then everyone found a seat to sit down. There were too many people, so the adults and children sat separately.

Taiji looked at Hua Yan eagerly, unable to move forward.

Haitao and Chai Yuan also have the same feeling as Taiji.

Hua Jiao and Hua Rong also sat at the children's table, but Hua Rong refused to do anything and insisted on looking for Hua Yan.

"Sister, sister!"

Huarong rubbed her little butt off the chair and walked over swayingly.

Hua Yan immediately stood up and picked up Hua Rong.

"Guo'er, do you want to eat here?"

"Yeah! I want to eat with my sister."

Huarong nodded and put her little hands tightly around Huayan's neck.

"Guo'er, godmother will hold you, so that your sister can eat well."

Seeing that Liu Fengzhi didn't react at all, Sheng Fang had to speak up.

Hua Rong glanced at Sheng Fang and extended her hand to Sheng Fang.

"Our Guo'er is obedient. Come, tell me what you like to eat and I'll give it to you."

Sheng Fang fed Hua Rong patiently.

Hua Jingxing glanced at Liu Fengzhi from the corner of his eye. Haha! She didn't react at all.

Hua Jingxing didn't know why Liu Fengzhi suddenly came here. She didn't tell him, and he didn't ask.

Hua Yan can talk to everyone except Liu Fengzhi.

Halfway through the meal, Hua Yan went to the Boy Scouts' table.

They didn't talk about anything, just about what Hua Yan saw and heard outside.

When leaving the party, Hua Yan said goodbye to the adults and left with the Boy Scouts following closely behind.

After returning home, Hua Yan began to hold a meeting.

"Does everyone have any problems with their studies recently?"

Hua Yan held Hua Rong and sat on the sofa, looking at the children around them.

"Jiu'er, Teacher Zhang said that you and Taiji are going to skip a grade, and he suggested that I give it a try as well."

Haitao suppressed his inner excitement and reported his situation.

"Okay! That's a good thing."

Hua Yan really didn't expect Haitao to progress so quickly.

"Jiuer, our head teacher also told me this, but I didn't agree. I want to hear your opinion."

Hua Jiao sat next to Hua Yan and looked at her calmly.

"Sister, of course I agree. How confident are you?"

Hua Yan looked at Hua Jiao and Hai Tao.

"I'm sure I can succeed."

Haitao said a little shyly.

“I am also confident that I can succeed.”

Hua Jiao looked at Hua Yan with certainty.

"Okay! Then we will skip a grade together. But the others don't need to worry. You must study hard and not rush for success."

Hua Yan is worried that other people may be under psychological pressure.

"Jiu'er, we are not in a hurry. We are now among the top students in the class. If we work harder, we can skip a grade."

Liang Xin said with a smile.

She had never felt this proud before, but now she was full of confidence.

"Okay! Skipping grades is not the goal. Our goal is to learn all the knowledge thoroughly."

Hua Yan looked at those energetic faces and felt that in a few years, they would be the main force of her business empire.

"We know that. Taiji tells us this all the time."

Although Chai Yuan is the big brother, he now follows Taiji's lead.

Because Taiji is not only their cultural teacher, but also a guiding light in their lives.

Now when everyone has a problem, they will unconsciously seek Taiji's advice.
