Chapter 260: Threats
Bai Su nodded affirmatively, "That's it, my father helped us get two invitations, and I'll take you in." ”
"Because of my father, I know quite a few third- and fourth-grade refiners, maybe I can introduce you to them below. ”
"Well, that's a good idea. Lin Yuan said with a smile.
Seeing that Lin Yuan agreed, Bai Su was also full of smiles and said, "You see that your sister is still quite capable!"
Lin Yuan responded with a smile, thinking in his heart that since Cheng Hai and Taishou have a good relationship now, then this banquet will definitely be attended, and it is just right to find him, so he will not have to find someone to inquire about his residence.
......
That night, the Ximing Mansion was too guarded.
The Taishou Mansion is called King's Landing Mountain, and it is a towering building, and on its top floor, there is a banquet hall that can see the whole city.
Lin Yuan followed Bai Su and came to the banquet hall after passing the security check of the Taishou Mansion.
"Lin Yuan, there are big people everywhere here, you and I must pay attention. ”
Bai Su was wearing a dress and said to Lin Yuan a little nervously.
Lin Yuan nodded, and leaned out his divine sense to sense all corners of the banquet hall, looking for Cheng Hai's traces.
Soon, everything around is in plain sight.
"I heard that Master Cheng is also coming to today's banquet?"
"Of course, Master Cheng will definitely come, and Taishou personally came to invite him. ”
"It's amazing, I heard that Master Cheng was originally only a second-grade refiner, but I didn't expect to become a sixth-grade refiner, this kind of opportunity is really enviable!"
"That's not right, Master Cheng was already a second-grade refiner twenty years ago, isn't it normal for him to make a breakthrough in one fell swoop in the past twenty years?"
"Not necessarily, I have heard others say that Master Cheng seems to have fallen under a certain powerful sect in order to achieve today's achievements. ”
"Why are you bothering about this, anyway, Master Cheng is now a dragon among people, and I heard that he is even expected to be a seventh-grade refiner. ”
"What? Seventh-grade refiner? That's a third-grade refiner, enough to gain a foothold in the imperial capital. ”
"That's not it, Master Cheng stayed in this small Ximing Mansion, he was originally Qu Cai, according to his current strength, even in the national capital of our Zhou Kingdom, he can be ranked. ”
"Yes, I also wonder why he stayed in Ximing Mansion, I heard that the head of our Zhou State Refinery Alliance personally invited him to the national capital, but he didn't go. ”
"Whatever, Master Cheng should be happy to stay in Ximing Mansion, otherwise with your and my identities, how could we have the opportunity to meet with the Sixth Rank Refiner?"
"That's right, although today is Taishou's daughter's birthday, in fact, most people are running for Master Cheng. ”
“......”
Hearing this, Lin Yuan was speechless for a while, he didn't expect Cheng Hai to mix so well now.
But it's also a good thing, the better he mixes, the more he helps.
Thinking of this, he continued to search his surroundings.
And just when he was busy looking for Cheng Hai, someone in a private room in the banquet hall was also observing him.
"Lin Yuan ......"
One of the four girls slowly spat out these two words, and her gaze stayed on Lin Yuan in the hall below.
"Sister Yahui, have you seen an acquaintance?"
Another girl with a noble temperament and dressed in full costume asked.
"Barely count. Ji Yahui retracted her gaze and said, "Sister Xue Yao, today is your birthday, so let's not talk about those disappointing things." ”
Seeing Ji Yahui's expression, Xue Yao almost guessed that there was some grudge between the two, so she smiled sweetly and didn't say anything more.
At this time, one of the four girls was still looking at Lin Yuan blankly.
This scene quickly attracted the attention of Xue Yao and Ji Yahui, and the girl next to the girl hurriedly tugged at her sleeve and said, "Qingqing, what are you still looking at him? ”
Hearing this, Xue Yao and Ji Yahui were both slightly stunned, and Xue Yao asked, "Ruyue, Qingqing also knows that person?"
As soon as the words fell, she could no longer suppress the curiosity in her heart, and followed Cheng Qingqing's gaze to Lin Yuan.
Yun Ruyue explained: "When I was in Jianyang City before, Lin Yuan chased Qingqing, but in the end, it naturally didn't work out. ”
Xue Yao retracted her gaze and said with a smile: "Qingqing is so beautiful, and she has such a powerful father, naturally she can't be friends with ordinary people casually." ”
Ji Yahui also said disdainfully: "That's right, how can a toad be worthy of eating swan meat." ”
"Ordinary man, toad?"
Cheng Qingqing muttered to himself in an inaudible voice.
Cheng Hai had already explained the truth to her, the reason why he became a six-grade refiner and had everything today was because of Lin Yuan.
How can such a person be an ordinary man?
At this time, Yun Ruyue stretched out her hand and straightened her over, and said, "Qingqing, don't worry about this kind of person anymore, you will find a proud son like Gu Hao as a boyfriend in the future." ”
Hearing this, Xue Yao chuckled and said: "That's it, I really envy Sister Yahui at this point, Gu Hao is now a man of the hour, the most potential person among the younger generation of our Ximing Mansion." ”
The topic quickly shifted to Gu Hao and Ji Yahui, and there was laughter and laughter in the private room.
......
Inside the ballroom.
As the time for the dinner approached, there were more and more people, except for those who were really upper-class people in Ximing Mansion, most of them gathered in the banquet hall at this time, chatting in twos and threes.
Lin Yuan couldn't detect any trace of Cheng Hai, so he gave up and waited for the banquet to officially start before meeting him.
The two stood by a floor-to-ceiling window in the banquet hall, admiring the night of the capital.
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind the two of them.
"Hmph, I knew you were coming. ”
Hearing this, the smile on Bai Su's face instantly converged, and he turned around and said, "Ye Qiuling, what do you want?"
Lin Yuan also turned around slowly, and found Ye Qiuling and a young man standing together, both of them with a hint of arrogance in their eyes.
"Fang Yushu?!"
After seeing the man beside Ye Qiuling clearly, Bai Su said with some astonishment.
Seeing this, Ye Qiuling proudly introduced: "Yushu is now my boyfriend, are you surprised?"
The young man's eyes were full of arrogance, and he had a faint smile on his face, but he did not speak.
Seeing that the other party did not deny it, Bai Su's expression tightened.
Ye Qiuling said even more proudly: "Bai Su, I said, no matter what you want to do, I can make you unable to do it." ”
Bai Su was silent, as if he was intimidated by the other party's words.
Ye Qiuling was very satisfied with her performance, so she turned her head to look at Lin Yuan and said, "By the way, I have one more thing to inform you, from now on, all the refining masters of Ximing Mansion will not cooperate with you, and all Lingbao Pavilions in Ximing Mansion will refuse you entry." ”
Lin Yuan replied lightly: "Do you think you can do it?"
Seeing this, Fang Yushu sneered and said in a condescending tone: "I said she could do it, and she could do it." ”
