Best Son-in-law

Ding Hongsheng couldn't just watch Gu Shao ask Chang Xuan to get up and give up his seat to Chu Mu, so he quickly asked his daughter to get up and stand aside first.

Among the people present, Ding Hongsheng couldn't afford to offend anyone, so he could only offend his daughter.

But Ding Yanan was also very sensible and quickly stood up to make room for Chu Mu to sit.

"Uncle Chu, please sit here with me. I just want to take a look at the scenery outside. You guys are so beautiful." When Ding Yanan faced a big shot like Chu Mu, she spoke and acted very appropriately, with a hint of a lady. style.

"No, Mr. Chu, you can sit in my seat, and I will sit in Yanan's seat." Ding Hongsheng couldn't let Chu Mu sit in his daughter's original seat.

His original intention was to let Chu Mu come over and sit in his seat, while he sat in Ding Yanan's seat.

"Mr. Ding, Miss Ding, Mr. Gu, you are too polite. No need to be polite. From now on, we will be acquaintances. I will just sit here." Chu Mu had no intention of letting them move, and he had no intention of coming here. Too involved in this matter.

His original intention was just to make peace, and if that didn't make sense, let the two families arrange to fight.

At most he can act as a mediator, and he can't talk too much.

Chu Mu is a smart man.

He has no interest in getting involved in this matter.

And if these two families were to confront each other, he would have to avoid them.

So Chu Mu chose to sit in the lowest seat. On the one hand, he could show his position, which was a neutral and conciliatory position. He wanted peace and would not help either of the two families.

On the other hand, he also wants to maintain his modest attitude.

"What's wrong with this? Mr. Chu, just sit here with me. Come here." At this time, Ding Hongsheng stood up and was about to invite Chu Mu.

But Chu Mu just waved his hand: "Mr. Ding, you're welcome. I'll just sit here. I may have some things to deal with later."

Chu Mu politely rejected Ding Hongsheng.

When Ding Hongsheng saw this, he didn't say anything more and just nodded: "Okay, Mr. Chu, you can just sit here."

"Miss Ding is really a lady. She is so beautiful. She must have many admirers, right?" Chu Mu praised Ding Yanan with a smile.

"No way, my little girl cannot afford to be such a lady." Ding Yanan showed an uncharacteristically shy attitude when facing Chu Mu. Ding Hongsheng quickly stood in front of Ding Yanan and said humbly.

So, Chu Mu and the others complimented each other at the wine table.

After the compliments, they started chatting casually about dishes and other topics.

I didn’t directly talk about today’s theme.

The Gu family remained calm, and Ding Hongsheng didn't want to take the initiative to mention it. He was happy to pretend to be stupid.

Chu Mu glanced at the other two people on the table. The only ones he didn't recognize now were Mr. Wang next to Mr. Gu and Li Fan next to Ding Hongsheng.

He knew Chang Xuan. He often went to the Huaisui area to do some cooperative trade, and had some dealings with Mr. Gu and Chang Xuan.

However, Chu Mu probably guessed that the person sitting next to Chang Xuan might be Mr. Wang, the master specially invited by Mr. Gu to suppress Ding Hongsheng.

So when toasting, Chu Mu took the initiative to raise his glass and said to Mr. Wang: "Is this Mr. Wang?"

"Yes, yes, this is Mr. Wang." Mr. Gu narrowed his eyes and smiled.

"Come, Mr. Wang, let me propose a toast to you. This reputation is not as good as meeting, and meeting is worse than meeting. When I saw Mr. Wang, he seemed to have an extraordinary bearing. He definitely did not look like an ordinary person." Chu Mu then toasted to Mr. Wang with a glass of wine.

Mr. Wang laughed and said politely: "Mr. Chu, you're welcome."

When Mr. Wang saw Chu Mu coming in, he also realized that Chu Mu was not an ordinary person, but maybe an expert.

Because Chu Mu's temples are prominent, he is obviously a practicing practitioner, and it may not be a hobby, he may be a professional.

After serving Mr. Wang a glass of wine, Chu Mu turned the glass to Ding Hongsheng. He looked straight at Li Fan, but felt a little puzzled in his heart. He didn't know Li Fan's identity, but he didn't dare to act rashly. , offending an expert like Li Fan.

Li Fan sat next to Ding Yanan. It was obvious that Ding Hongsheng had hired him to protect his daughter. Given the importance Ding Hongsheng attached to his daughter, the person in front of him was definitely not a simple character, otherwise he would not have been entrusted with such an important task by Ding Hongsheng, so Chu Mu immediately put away all his contempt and looked at Li Fan solemnly.

He had stayed in Yannan for a long time, but he had never seen or even heard of a number one figure like Li Fan.

This made him feel really strange.

The Li Fan in front of him felt like a country boy, and his clothes also gave off the smell of the country.

If he hadn't seen him here, Chu Mu would have thought that he came from the countryside and came to the city. But since he is sitting here, it means that this person has an extraordinary status and is definitely not as simple as he seems on the surface.

Moreover, Chu Mu felt that Li Fan might be a real master. He showed the demeanor of a master who lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests.

Therefore, Chu Mu immediately picked up the wine glass and asked Li Fan to toast: "Who is this?"

There were only a few people sitting on the table, and those who could sit on this table would definitely have a place for Chu Mu to toast, so he was unambiguous.

It's just that he is a little strange, why no one introduces him?

It’s okay if Mr. Gu doesn’t introduce him. Why doesn’t Ding Hongsheng introduce him? Is he hiding his clumsiness?

In fact, Ding Hongsheng had his own reasons for not introducing Li Fan. At this time, Mr. Liu already disliked Li Fan and looked down on him. He didn't want to provoke a dispute, so he simply avoided introducing him.

As expected, when Chu Mu asked about Li Fan, Mr. Liu became a little unhappy.

He was very proud, and he couldn't bear to see Li Fan sitting with him. He felt that this lowered his status. How could it not be humiliating for a person of his status to sit with a country bumpkin?

Therefore, Mr. Liu was very impatient. When he saw Chu Mu taking the initiative to ask, he became even more impatient. He waved his hand directly and said with some disdain: "Is this a big shot? A big shot from the countryside."

Seeing Mr. Liu take the initiative to introduce himself, Chu Mu became even more solemn. He had just noticed that Mr. Liu's eyes were higher than his head and no one could look down on him.

I'm afraid he doesn't even look down on Young Master Gu, let alone others.

The characters that he can introduce on his own initiative will definitely not be simple.

"It turns out he is a reclusive master from the outside world. I am disrespectful and disrespectful." At this time, Chu Mu stood up and wanted to toast Li Fan.

When Li Fan saw this, he quickly stood up without any disrespect.

But at this time, Mr. Liu sarcastically said: "What kind of outsider is he?"
