Chapter Ninety-Six: The Banquet
This inauguration ceremony was even more complicated than Wang Yang imagined, and after reading the manuscript, under the watchful eyes of the people below, he was immediately taken to another place, where reporters and flashing lights poured towards him without stopping.

Fortunately, all the questions were answered by someone on his behalf, and he just had to sit there motionless and make an honest statue. After dealing with a group of tricky reporters, Wang Yang thought that he could finally rest for a while, but at this moment, Long Jiu walked over with a smile.
"Mingyu. Hearing him call himself like this, Wang Yang was still a little unaccustomed to it, but in front of everyone's eyes, he could only pretend to be natural and respond.
"Uncle Nine. ”
"Let's call Brother Jiu, so that I look younger. Long Jiu obviously didn't want to be the same generation as the old man Zhang Changlong, in fact, he did look like he was only in his early thirties. With his fine stubble and a somewhat ruffian smile, ordinary little girls can't resist his charm.
"Brother Jiu. ”
"There's a banquet for you to attend in a moment. Long Jiu put his arm around his shoulder, with a kind expression on his face that was close to his junior.
"Can I not go?" Wang Yang said with a bitter face.
"This is not good, today is your big day, the bigwigs from all walks of life will be present, you can't help but give them face. ”
"They are going for Zhang Mingyu. Wang Yang protested quietly.
Long Jiu slapped him hard, continued to maintain a smiling expression on his face, and then leaned in front of him and whispered, "You are Zhang Mingyu now!"
"Uncle Zhang, how is he?" Wang Yang had a trace of helplessness on his face, as if he was a little noncommittal about what he said. Then another topic was raised.
"It's your father!" Long Jiu corrected again.
"Okay, how is he doing now?" Wang Yang felt that his request was a little too serious.
"It's not good, the news from the hospital is that various organs in his body are failing, and the toxins that those people injected him with seem to have caused permanent damage to his brain. "Long Jiu looked a little sad, and it was indeed sad that his old friend had become what he was now," the doctor said, perhaps he only had three months left. ”
"Before I left, I wanted to see him. Hearing the bad news of the other party, Wang Yang also felt a sense of melancholy in his heart, although he was used to seeing life and death in the hospital on weekdays, but suddenly a person he knew was about to pass away, which still touched him a little.
"Of course. Long Jiu patted him on the shoulder and turned to reveal a resolute face. Not far away, someone was extending his hand to him.
"It's almost time, let's go, I specially arranged a small show for you tonight, I'm sure you'll like it." Long Jiu turned to him and said, the corners of his mouth hooked into a mysterious smile.
"Oh. Wang Yang looked around, as if he didn't pay attention to the little show he said, he thought that his identity would be questioned by many people, but today's situation was surprisingly smooth, and the only thing that could be explained was that Long Jiu had cleaned up all these guys who might be unfavorable to him. Thinking of the disappearances, self-surrenders and suicides that have been on the TV news in the past three days, Wang Yang felt a chill in his heart.
"What's wrong?" Long Jiu asked out loud as he turned sideways, looked at him with an unnatural expression.
"Nothing. I'm just a little worried about Wendy, she's home alone, and I promised her that I'll go back early. Wang Yang calmed down the mixed emotions in his heart and said to him calmly.
"Ha, what's this, I'll send someone to pick her up in a moment. ”
"Well, it's still not necessary, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of her at the banquet, rather than letting her stay in the middle of a group of boring adults, it's better to let her stay at home at ease. Wang Yang subconsciously didn't want Wendy to have too much contact with the people here, "I'll give her a call." ”
With that, he took out his phone, walked to a quiet corner, and dialed the girl's number.
"Uncle, why don't you come back, I'm going to be bored to death!" As soon as the phone was connected, the girl's anxious voice came from there.
"Wendy, I may have to be late to get back. Wang Yang tried to keep his voice as soft as possible.
"Why? You promised me to come back soon!" Wang Yang's departure made the girl's heart empty, and after experiencing such a terrible thing, she faintly regarded him as a dependent.
"Hmm... I'll try to get as soon as possible, go back and bring you a gift, what do you want?" Wang Yang said.
"I don't want any gifts, it's good if you come back early, I'm scared to stay alone in this house. Wendy's pitiful voice came from the microphone, Wang Yang was a little unbearable, but he really couldn't leave here, he could only agree, and decided to go back after a while of the banquet.
"That girl is your girlfriend?" Long Jiu saw him come back, and his face immediately showed an ambiguous expression.
"It's not. Wang Yang smiled, his eyes full of calmness.
"I don't think you like that one, haha, let's go, Brother Nine will open your eyes tonight. ”
The two left through the back door of the building, because there were still some reporters who did not give up guarding the front door, and in order to avoid being harassed by the cameras, Long Jiu sent someone to park the car behind.
The venue of the banquet was arranged in a private club, and when Wang Yang and the others arrived, there were already all kinds of luxury cars parked outside, and in front of the club, you could see some gentlemen and celebrities in high society.
Wang Yang is the protagonist of tonight, and as soon as he appeared, he immediately attracted countless pairs of eyes around him. After getting out of the car, he stepped on the red carpet on the ground with some embarrassment, and Long Jiu next to him tapped his shoulder, smiled and said to him in ventriloquism: "Naturally, there are many people paying attention to you tonight, if they find out that you are an impostor, you will be finished." ”
"Didn't you kill all those people?" Wang Yang looked at him with his eyes, and also said in ventriloquism.
"These people have nothing to do with us Long Heng, how can I kill them? ”
“。。 So far, Wang Yang can only bite the bullet. He restrained his expression slightly, so that his cheeks, which had become a little stiff, returned to nature, but the nervousness made him still have no smile on his face, but it unexpectedly gave people a haughty and indifferent image.
Entering the clubhouse, the huge banquet hall was already full of people, and after seeing Wang Yang, this group of brightly dressed upper-class people approached one after another, and faintly surrounded him in the center like the stars holding the moon.
