cal stones, swirling in the air, were about to solidify… but suddenly, as if out of control, they plummeted downwards.As for Violet… she shuddered violently and fainted.What's going on!"The twelve-win..."Mr. Tang, Ms. Ji, Master Fang, hello to all of you! Thank you very much for giving the Huaibei Chamber of Commerce face by attending tonight's banquet." 。Before Chen Xiangwen could finish his words, a voice came from behind. 。In formal attire, Gu Rong smiled and led a group of core members from the Chamber of Commerce forward. 。Upon seeing Yu Ruobing and Chen Xiangwen, Gu Rong was taken aback and asked, "Do you know Master Fang"
Chen Xiangwen's eyes flickered slightly, and Yu Ruobing, standing beside him, said, "I've met him before" >>> 。"
Oh" 。Gu Rong didn't say anything, he turned his head and stretched out his hand towards Tang Mingde. 。Tang Mingde squeezed out a smile and shook hands with Gu Rong. 。After shaking hands with Tang Mingde, Gu Rong turned to Fang Yu beside him and also extended his hand. 。
Fang Yu looked at Gu Rong and made no move to reach out. 。Gu Rong wore a fake, saccharine smile, but the malice lurking in his eyes didn't escape Fang Yu's gaze. 。Since he wasn't sincere, Fang Yu naturally didn't need to give him face. 。"Haha... I was presumptuous. Someone as accomplished as Master Fang, how could we commoners be worthy of shaking your hand" Gu Rong laughed out loud, his words dripping with sarcasm. 。
The surrounding chamber members burst into laughter, thinking they could hide their anger with smiles. 。Come in, the dishes are all served. 。Gu Rong extended his hand and gestured. 。Things had come to this, and Fang Yu didn't show any intention of leaving. Everyone else could only follow Gu Rong into Nandu Restaurant. 。The dining table in the hall was larger than a typical conference table, laden with over a dozen dishes, each visually appealing and fragrant. 。It wasn't a wasted trip tonight. 。Fan Yu thought to himself, and sat down directly. 。Originally, Lin Batten wanted to sit beside Fang Yu, but he was pulled on his clothes by Tang Xiaorou. 。Mr. Lin, may I sit here You sit over there. 。Tang Xiaorou's face flushed slightly, and she pleaded softly. 。Lin Batian looked at Tang Xiaorou, then glanced at Fang Yu, a knowing smile appeared on his face, and said: "No problem" 。Then, Fang Yu sat with Ji Rumei on his left and Tang Xiaorou on his right. 。At the entire dinner table, over twenty core members from the Huaibei Merchant Guild were present, while on the Jiangnan Merchant Guild's side, only Tang Mingde and Ji Ruimei represented them. 。Yu Ruobing sat next to Tang Mingde, her face not looking good. 。She and Chen Xiangwen came here to repay Fang Yu's life-saving grace from last time. 。
As things stand now, they can't take Fang Yu away. 。
"Since things have come to this, there's no need for Mr. Fang to leave." 。With Mr. Fang's strength, plus me, dealing with a single Yi Duanliu shouldn't be a problem. 。Chen Xiangwen leaned close to Yu Ruobing's ear and whispered. 。"But your opponents are not just easily defeated streams..." Yu Ruobing said with some concern. 。"Rest assured, even if you don't trust my abilities, you have to believe in Mr. Fang's... everything will be fine." 。Chen Xiangwen said. 。Mr. Tang, our Huaibei Chamber of Commerce made some mistakes before. We formally apologize to you today, and we hope Mr. Tang will be magnanimous and forgive us for this transgression... I'll drink this cup as atonement first. 。Across from him, Gu Rong stood up first, holding his wine cup. He tilted his head back and drank the wine in one gulp. 。Tang Mingde already knew the purpose of Gu Rong's dinner tonight, and he had no mood to drink at all. 。But now Fang Yu hasn't expressed himself, and he doesn't want to directly tear up his face. 。He had no choice but to get up, pick up the glass in front of him, and take a drink. 。"Haha... Mr. Tang, after this drink, we'll be best friends." 。"Gu Rong laughed loudly" 。"Miss Ji, this one's for you!" Gug Rong filled the cup with wine and looked at Ji Ruimei beside Tang Mingde. 。Ji Rumei's beautiful eyebrows were slightly furrowed, but she still got up and took a sip. 。"Now these people's outward appearances are really quite elaborate, aren't they" 。"Lin Baitai transmitted his voice to Fang Yu," 。The best is yet to come. 。"Fang Yu said" 。After toasting Ji Rumei, Gu Rong turned his gaze to Fang Yu. 。At this time, Fang Yu had already started eating with chopsticks, completely ignoring Gu Rong. 。A trace of gloom flashed across Gu Rong's eyes, and he returned to his seat. 。He is still behaving so timidly because Master Yiduanliu hasn't arrived at Nandu Restaurant yet. 。As soon as Yi Da Shi arrives, he won't give any of these people face!
Especially Fang Yu!
"Not even an ounce of respect for me You'll only die a more miserable death later!" Gu Rong thought to himself. 。"Fang Yu, you didn't go to class again this Wednesday!" Tang Xiaorou whispered to Fang Yu at the dinner table. 。。"Fang Yu said," 。The "Head Witch" who's going to replace you in class already said, "You'll be fired soon..." Tang Xiaorou said. 。"Retrenched" Fang Yu was taken aback, but then he thought about it, perhaps being retrenched wouldn't be a bad thing either. 。He's having a hard time keeping up with his weekly classes lately because he has too much going on. 。"Yesterday, another girl asked me where I went" 。"Tang Xiaorou let out a soft snort from her nose and said," 。"Who" Fang Yu asked. 。Song Liuge 。"Tang Xiaorou frowned and said" 。"Song Liuge" This witch goddess sect saintess, ever since the last time he saved her in the countryside, she had disappeared. 。"What did she want from me" Fang Yu asked. 。"How do I know She just said that and walked away." 。"Tang Xiaorou said" 。
Fang Yu stopped talking and ate his food in big mouthfuls. 。
The atmosphere at the dinner table, from the initial warmth to the later strange and cold silence. 。After a few words with Tang Mingde, Gu Rong stopped talking. 。After hearing what Yu Ruobing and Chen Xiangwen had to say, Tang Mingde and Ji Rumei felt a little uneasy. 。Knowing this was a Hongmen Banquet, who would have the mood to chat and laugh As for Gu Rong, he didn't deliberately try to find a topic either. 。Anyway, after tonight, this group of people will disappear!
As for the other members of the Huaibei Chamber of Commerce at the dinner table, they all had the same idea, mostly in silence. 。With each party harboring their own thoughts, the entire dinner table became unusually quiet. 。A table full of dishes, but only a few people were eating. Fang Yu and Lin Batian were the only ones who were really enjoying themselves. 。"You've been fasting for so long, do these foods still taste good" Fang Yu asked. 。"It's because I haven't eaten in so long, everything tastes especially good now." 。"Lin Batten replied," 。The way these two were devouring their food really took the other people around them aback. 。Although they had never met Lin Baitian, they only saw him as a bodyguard and didn't take him seriously. 。Tang Xiaorou, sitting beside Fang Yu, kept putting vegetables onto his plate. 。The reason was that she saw Ji Ru Mei clip a dish for Fang Yu, and then she couldn't stop. 。
Fang Yu was dealing with the lobster when Tang Xiaorou had already filled his rice bowl with dishes for him. 。"It seems Master Fang is very hungry, please eat freely, and I'll have the waiter bring you more if you need it." 。Gu Rong laughed, his eyes twinkling with mischief. 。"Okay, then let's get a few more servings of this lobster." 。"Fang Yu said" 。No problem 。Gu Rong clapped his hands, and a waiter immediately walked over. 。"To fulfill Master Fang's request, please send a few more lobsters over." 。"Gu Rong said" 。Okay, Mr. Gu > 。The waiter bowed and then backed out. 。
A condemned person always has a good meal before their execution. 。"Eat as much as you can while you still have the chance! "
Gu Rong looked at Fang Yu, narrowed his eyes and smiled. 。As time went on, the atmosphere at the dinner table grew increasingly cold. 。Tang Mingde glanced at his watch. It was 7:20 pm. 。Tang Mingde turned his head to look at Fang Yu. He saw that Fang Yu and Lin Batian, each with a large lobster in their hands, were still burying their heads and eating <
> 。Although he trusted Fang Yu's abilities, the feeling of waiting for danger to arrive still made him very uneasy. 。If possible, he would rather leave here immediately. 。Gu Rong leaned back in his chair, looking at the people across from him. His patience was wearing thin. 。Didn't I tell Master Yi the time How come it's not here yet! Gu Rong kept looking at his watch, anxious. 。"You seem quite anxious. Is anyone else missing" Fang Yu wiped his hands with a hot towel and looked at Gu Rong opposite him, asking. 。Gu Rong's face changed slightly, and he chuckled dryly: "Well, because I'm busy with work all the time, I developed this habit of looking at my watch." 。"Oh, I see. I thought you were waiting for someone." 。"Fang Yu said" 。
Gu Rong's face twitched slightly. 。At that moment, footsteps sounded from the back door. 。Master Yi has arrived!
Gu Rong excitedly stood up. 。Soon, an old man in a gray robe walked out from behind the curtain and strode straight towards the dining table. 。nnot be considered weak,” said Tiānjī Dào Rén. 。"Hmm, so you two are actually quite strong" Fang Yu said in surprise. 。I'm not that strong, but he... He's at the third level of Tianji, a sixth-level...
