Just after coming down the mountain, the beautiful CEO took me to register

Chapter 370: Stars and Peace

"Someone recommended me to the Du family, but they didn't come to me... If they came to me for help, with my kind heart, how could I just stand by and watch them die?"

Lin Fan said seriously.

"Yes, Brother Lin is the most merciful."

Shen Wei had a strange expression on his face, but he was muttering in his heart.

"Brother Lin's kindness is comparable to that of the giant Buddha on the mountain."

"Screw you."

Lin Fan scolded with a smile, then put away his smile.

The banquet began, and Lin Fan and Shen Wei ate with gusto. If it weren't for the special occasion, they might have laughed out loud.

"I have to say, the Du family's dishes are indeed delicious."

Lin Fan commented while eating.

"really."

Shen Wei nodded in agreement.

"Brother Lin, try this one, it tastes very good."

"Really? Let me try it."

Lin Fan said as he picked up a piece to taste and nodded with satisfaction.

The people at the same table looked at Lin Fan and Shen Wei, feeling a little confused.

In situations like this, don't people just go through the motions and leave?

Why are the two of them eating so wholeheartedly?

Also, who is this person next to Shen Wei? He looks so strange.

"Nephew Shen, are you here alone today? Your father isn't here with you?"

A middle-aged man asked.

"He couldn't come because of something, so he asked me to come and say goodbye to Mr. Du on his behalf."

Shen Wei's attitude was quite decent. After all, the people sitting at the same table were all heavyweights, including the gentleman who was of the same generation as his father. Although he did not belong to the top ten prestigious families, he was also the leader of a prominent family.

"Oh, I wonder who this friend is?"

The middle-aged man asked casually, just to start a conversation.

"Oh, this is my brother."

Shen Wei answered briefly.

"Brother?"

The middle-aged man was slightly surprised. It was indeed rare for someone to be addressed as such by Master Shen. Could he also be a member of the Shen family? But wasn't Shen Wei an only child? Could he be his father's child outside? However, if he was an illegitimate child, how could he be so close to Shen Wei?

"Come on, everyone, try these dishes. They're delicious. Stop chatting and start eating."

Shen Wei clearly didn't want to engage in further conversation, so he simply focused on enjoying the food. Because Lin Fan was present, he also shared in the joy of the feast. If Lin Fan hadn't been there, Shen Wei would probably have just tasted a little, just for show.

"..."

Seeing Shen Wei like this, the middle-aged man didn't want to continue asking questions.

Not long after, people from the Du family came to toast.

"I apologize for the poor hospitality, please forgive me..."

The head of the Du family spoke politely with a sad face.

"I understand. Who would still be in the mood to eat at a time like this today..."

When the middle-aged man said this, he glanced at Lin Fan and Shen Wei who were eating heartily, and was speechless for a moment.

Not in the mood to eat?

These two people seemed to be enjoying their meal!

The Du family's head also noticed the two of them and wondered: I'd heard Shen Wei was laughing happily here before, could they be here to cause trouble? But while the Du and Shen families weren't close, they weren't antagonistic either. Would the Shen family just send Shen Wei to cause trouble?

"Nephew Shen...is the food to your liking?"

The head of the Du family asked tentatively.

"Ah, very good."

Shen Wei nodded and said, "Next time there is a banquet like this, remember to invite me. I want to come."

"..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience fell silent. Even Lin Fan looked up at Shen Wei, wondering how he could say such a thing.

So inappropriate!

Isn't this the same as saying directly, please invite me to the next funeral of your Du family!

"No, that's not what I meant. I meant... other banquets, yes, other banquets."

Shen Wei noticed something was wrong and added hastily, watching the Du family's head of household's expression grow increasingly gloomy.

"Ah."

The head of the Du family managed to calm down and nodded.

After he finished speaking, he left without staying for long.

"That's really not what I meant."

Shen Wei seemed a little helpless.

"I know. There's nothing wrong with wanting to eat. Come on, keep eating."

Lin Fan comforted.

"Uh-huh."

Shen Wei nodded in response and continued to eat.

"..."

The people around looked at each other, thinking that the actions of these two people were even more exaggerated than causing trouble.

After walking around the venue, the brothers of the Du family left the banquet.

Obviously, after the banquet began, they had more important things to do - decide on the new leader of the family.

Not only the brothers, but also some elders of the Du family left one after another.

After all, selecting a new head of the family is a big deal and cannot be taken lightly.

There are many conflicts of interest involved, and the whole process is destined to be turbulent.

Lin Fan looked around and made a plan in his mind.

Up to now, he has not found the murderer and can only continue the investigation along the lines of Zhao Anmin.

See who can profit from it.

Even if the eldest brother of the Du family becomes the head of the family, there will still be suspicion.

Shen Wei mentioned before that the most likely person is the eldest brother of the Du family, but others cannot be ruled out.

Unless Mr. Du had clearly designated an heir during his lifetime, there would inevitably be a struggle.

Faced with huge family fortunes and power, even brothers or fathers and sons may become enemies!

"Brother Fan, who do you think it could be?"

Shen Wei, who had already eaten and drunk his fill, asked softly while drinking tea.

"That's hard to say. We'll know in a moment."

Lin Fan shook his head.

"Whoever is elected as the head of the family will be suspected."

"Stimulate."

Shen Wei smiled.

"I can eat and drink well and watch a big show. This trip is worth it."

"Haha, you are the only son in three generations, you should be content."

Lin Fan looked at Shen Wei and said.

"In the future, no one will compete with you for the Shen family."

"The Shen family? I'm not interested. My dream is to build a star and bring peace to the people."

Shen Wei shook his head.

"Let my father worry about it. I don't want to care."

"Ancheng is really too small."

Lin Fan nodded.

“It’s also good to set your sights a little further.”

"Right? Brother Fan, I will follow you from now on."

"Why follow me? I'm just the vice president of Zhao's company. I don't have much ability."

When Lin Fan said this, he remembered something.

"By the way, do you know Situ Nan?"

"I know him. We have a good relationship. He went abroad before. A few days ago, the old man of the Situ family was unwell, so he came back."

"Oh, did you see him?"

"Haha, he went to Zhao's company yesterday and brought flowers."

"Well, he does care about Zhao Ziqing." Shen Wei was slightly stunned.

"Brother Fan, is he okay?"

"Of course. Can I really do anything to him?"

"Well... at least he wasn't hurt, right?"

"How is that possible? The Zhao family and ours have a pretty good relationship. I'm not someone who doesn't know the difference between important and unimportant things. But I warned him that if he continues to bother Zhao Ziqing, his legs will be in danger."

"Is that so? This guy is quite reasonable. I'll find an opportunity someday so we can get together."

"Forget it, I've been busy lately."

"Okay, then I'll go and remind him not to have any more thoughts about Zhao Ziqing."

"No need, he has restrained himself a lot now."
