Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce

Chapter 130: Birthday Banquet

Two days later, Mrs. Li’s birthday banquet was hosted as scheduled.

Qiao An didn’t received an invitation from the Li family. She found it absurd that on the one hand, the Li family was holding her back from getting a divorce, but on the other hand, they were emotionally cutting her off.

After all, they were businessmen. Businessmen valued profits over separation.

Old Madam Li’s banquet was held at the affiliated clubhouse of the Li family’s villa. Early in the morning, many business and political celebrities came to attend the birthday banquet. There were all kinds of luxury cars parked outside the clubhouse. Successful men held the arms of wealthy ladies who were dressed well, as well as young ladies and handsome young masters. The birthday banquet was decorated very grandly.

The old lady’s sons and daughters-in-law stood outside the clubhouse with smiles on their faces to welcome the guests. Only the fourth son, Li Xiaoran, had not arrived yet.

The third branch was very unhappy with Li Xiaoran’s attitude. “We’re all sons. Why is Fourth Brother allowed to be late?”

The master of the third branch, Li Tingfeng, rolled his eyes at his wife. The third wife didn’t take the bait and said, “What did I say wrong? He’s the son of the old lady. Why is he late?”

First Madam had a dignified and virtuous smile, but her smile was filled with mockery towards Third Madam.

It was a rare opportunity to receive guests at the door and meet business partners with benefits. However, Third Madam despised this rare opportunity.

Moreover, everyone knew that Li Xiaoran was not the old lady’s biological son. His feelings for the Li family were weak. This was something which tugged at the old man’s heart. However, Third Madam deliberately poked at Li Xiaoran’s shortcomings at this critical moment. Wasn’t she exposing the old man’s embarrassing matter?

The Second Madam was not as patient as the First Madam. She reminded Li Tingfeng bluntly, “Third Brother, you have to control your wife’s mouth. Don’t she know that trouble comes from the mouth?”

Li Tingfeng did not like his wife to begin with, so he immediately echoed Second Sister-in-law’s words. “Second Sister-in-law is right.”

She turned around and reprimanded Third Madam in a low voice with a dark expression. “If you don’t know how to speak, don’t open your mouth. No one will think you’re mute.”

......

The Third Madam was like a clown who had been fooled and mocked by them. She was angry and indignant. “What did I say wrong? Fourth Brother is disrespectful. How can he be late today?”

At this moment, Li Zecheng, who was standing at the side absent-mindedly, agreed with Third Madam and said, “He’s a poor doctor. He must be embarrassed to attend such a gathering of the wealthy. He’s hiding.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a Rolls-Royce driving over slowly.

Everyone present was immediately dumbfounded. Not only was this car extremely expensive, but the key was that it was limited worldwide. Very few people could obtain the qualifications.

They were either rich or noble.

Everyone looked at the luxury car. At this moment, the passenger door opened and Li Xiaoran walked out.

He wore very comfortable casual clothes and had unruly black hair. Because of his flowing comma bangs, he looked gentle and harmless.

Third Madam was very unhappy when she saw Li Xiaoran. She could not help but criticize Li Xiaoran. “Fourth Brother, did you get a new car? It seems that you’ve earned money recently.”

Li Xiaoran explained indifferently, “Oh, this car isn’t mine.”

Li Zecheng immediately added insult to injury. “That’s true. It would not be appropriate to drive your lousy car here.”

The mother and son both despised Li Xiaoran for being poor. Li Xiaoran was also a big talker and would not stop until he won. He immediately retorted domineeringly, “Li Zecheng, you drive a luxury car and live in a luxurious house, but what’s the use of that? You probably only have 25 cents lying in your account every day. You’re just lying to those vain women who are greedy for money.”

These words made Li Zecheng and his woman, Wei Xin, unable to retaliate.

Third Madam stood up for her son and said in a strange tone, “Fourth Brother, you said that my Zecheng is poor. Isn’t this the pot calling the kettle black? Who doesn’t know that Fourth Brother is still living in a rented house and driving a cheap car! I advise Fourth Brother not to live in a slum and dream.”

Li Zecheng felt that his mother had helped him win back a city. He smiled smugly.

At this moment, the driver’s door of the Rolls-Royce opened and Huo Zhou walked out elegantly.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

One had to know that the Huo family was the richest family in the capital. Huo Zhou, this rich second-generation heir, had a net worth of hundreds of billions. It was not something a billion-dollar profligate like Li Zecheng could compare to.

The Huo family and the Li family were rivals in the medical field. The two families rarely interacted. Moreover, Huo Zhou had always been arrogant and never bothered to attend such a private banquet.

Why did he deign to come to the Li family banquet?

Moreover… he actually chauffeured Li Xiaoran?

Third Madam nudged Li Zecheng’s elbow and quickly said, “Son, why aren’t you welcoming President Huo?” Then she reminded Li Zecheng in a very low voice, “If you’re on the list, you’ll be able to turn the tables.”

Li Zecheng walked towards Huo Zhou with a smile. “President Huo, this way please.”

Not only him, but even his father and uncles also welcomed Huo Zhou with smiles.

Huo Zhou rejected their kindness. “You don’t have to greet me. Xiaoran can accompany me.”

The uncles of the Li family and Li Zecheng revealed disappointed and stunned expressions.

In their hearts, they felt that Li Xiaoran was unworthy of Huo Zhou’s favor.

Huo Zhou whispered to Li Xiaoran, “Xiaoran, your brothers really didn’t know what’s good for them. In my opinion, the Li family’s fortunes has come to an end.”

Li Xiaoran looked around for Qiao An. He answered casually, “That depends on whether the Huo Corporation is willing to give them a way out.”

Huo Zhou smiled and said, “The Huo family’s pharmaceutical company is all yours. Whether you want to give them a way out or not is up to you.”

Li Xiaoran did not see Qiao An, so he entered the clubhouse with Huo Zhou. At this moment, the number of guests was decreasing. Li Zecheng and his uncle followed Huo Zhou into the clubhouse.

The atmosphere in the clubhouse was lively.

The old lady sat in front. Perhaps because she was in high spirits, the old lady was overjoyed today. There was a mountain of gifts in front of her.

Li Xiaoran and Huo Zhou walked side by side and looked at each other. They took out their gift cards at the same time and handed them to the old lady. “Please accept it.”

The old lady looked shocked when she saw the two cards.

It was understandable that Huo Zhou gave her expensive jewelry worth millions, but Li Xiaoran also gave her expensive jewelry. Its value was not lower than Huo Zhou’s. The old lady did not understand. Where did he get so much money?

If he had the money to give gifts, why was he living in a rented apartment?
