After all, even if they were magnanimous, they could not stop others from thinking about it. If Shangguan LAN ers reputation was affected because of this, it would really cause endless trouble.

As Xu lingchong said, the first floor was full of guests. Everyone was trying to hide their presence, but Lin Yi could still feel that they were all extraordinary.

Especially those who had the right to sit on the main seat-every single one of them had their breath taken away, as if they were G.o.ds. Standing in front of them, Lin Yi felt like he was looking up at a mountain.

There were quite a few faces Lin Yi had seen before, like the third elder Xu Yuanzheng of the skyward Pavilion, the fourth elder Zhao Hongbo of the GreenCloud Pavilion, and the bald elder who was in charge of the back mountain Hall. Even Gongyang Jie, whom hed met before, was among them.

Lin Yi even saw an old acquaintance-Hong Zhong from the Hong Chamber of Commerce.

This was out of Lin Yis expectations, but it made sense after thinking about it. Hong Zhong was the full representative of the Hong Chamber of Commerce on the North Island, so it was natural for him to get close to the higher-ups of the three pavilions.

Regardless of his ident.i.ty or status, he was not inferior to the elders of the three great pavilions. Naturally, he had the right to occupy the main seat.

However, although Lin Yi was considered an acquaintance, it was under the ident.i.ty of Lin er. Now that Lin Yi had appeared in his true form, Hong Zhong might not be able to recognize him.

With the appearance of Shangguan LAN er, all the people who had been chatting instantly focused their eyes on the main character of todays birthday banquet. They all smiled and looked a little amazed.

As the protagonist, Shangguan LAN er was dressed the same as usual. She did not deliberately dress up or dress up. However, even so, it was still difficult to hide her natural beauty. In the dreamy atmosphere deliberately created by the audience, she was like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world, dazzling everyone.

However, while everyones eyes were focused on Shangguan LAN er, there were still quite a few people who noticed Lin Yi who came down with her. After a short pause, they started whispering to each other.

Other than Xu lingchong and the people from Southern Heaven Gate who were familiar with Lin Yi, no one else knew anything about him. Seeing him suddenly appear with miss Shangguan, of course, there were all kinds of suspicions and discussions.

At this time, Shangguan Tianhua, who was sitting in the main seat in the middle, waved at Shangguan LAN er in a half-pampering and half-criticizing manner, and said,Little LAN er, hurry up and say h.e.l.lo to all the grandpas and uncles. Youve gained a lot of face today by making so many elders wait for you.

Little Junior Brother, find a place to sit down first. Ill come find you later! Shangguan LAN er turned her head and whispered to Lin Yi, before running over with her little Curly Bear.

Xu lingchong, who was watching this scene from a distance, couldnt help but burn with anger again. With the first impression he had, he now felt that Shangguan LAN er and Lin Yi were secretly flirting with each other, and it was unbearable.

To think that this young master thought that this little girl was pure and cute, Holy and inviolable. I didnt expect her to be such a womanly s.l.u.t with a unique taste. Im f * cking blind! Xu lingchong fiercely spat on the ground, a bold plan quietly forming in his mind.

No matter what considerations he had, he could not let Shangguan LAN er escape from his palm. Absolutely not. For this, even if he had to resort to unscrupulous means, he was willing to take a little risk!

At this moment, the hall was filled with a happy and harmonious scene. Among the many big shots present, even if they had irreconcilable grudges with each other, they could not show even the slightest bit of it at this time. At least, in front of the public, they had to force a smile for the time being. After all, they had to give face to the Super big Shot, Shangguan Tianhua.

Apart from gathering all the big shots at the birthday banquet to make small talk and build up friends.h.i.+ps, there was also an indispensable highlight according to the usual practice. Today, under Xu lingchongs arrangement, was no exception. Everyone would present their gifts to Shangguan LAN er, the main character of the birthday banquet.

According to their status and strength, everyone present sent birthday gifts to Shangguan LAN er in turn. This was not only to express their feelings, but also a great opportunity to show their respective abilities.

It was inevitable that the birthday banquet would eventually be reduced to a compet.i.tion for people. Whoever brought out the rarer and more precious gift would represent the more powerful person. In the future, the status in the hearts of many big shots would naturally be higher. As for those slightly unpresentable and ordinary gifts, they were simply not worthy of being brought out. Even if they were brought out, it would only be embarra.s.sing.

This time, under Xu lingchongs deliberate arrangement, not only did the guests have to present the gifts in front of everyone, but they had also rented three appraisal experts from the major Chambers of Commerce to evaluate each gift in public. It was called the birthday appreciation conference.

As a result, the compet.i.tive atmosphere in the venue was much thicker than before. After listening to Xu lingchongs announcement, the expressions on everyones faces were either happy or sad. It was really wonderful.

The top figures of the North Island were all gathered together. This kind of opportunity was extremely rare. Everyone wanted to stand out on this kind of occasion and leave a deep impression on many important figures. No one wanted to lose face at this time. Once they left behind a stingy evaluation, they would complain endlessly.

If they had known that there would be such a segment, everyone present would have spared no effort to present the best treasures. It would be worth it no matter how much they spent to leave a good impression on the big shots.

It was a pity that when Xu lingchong sent them the invitation letters, she had tampered with the process and treated them differently. Those who were close to the Xu family received the invitation letters at the same time, while those who were not close to the Xu family or even had bad relations with them were completely unaware of this.

They might even be misled into thinking that this birthday party was just a formality and that there was no need to prepare any expensive gifts.

Therefore, those who received the reminder would be able to show their faces, while those who were deliberately misled would be in real tragedy. They could only wait for themselves to become the laughingstock of the audience in anxiety.

The entire process was under Xu lingchongs control. The members of the Xu family had all won the lottery, while those who opposed the Xu family could only brace themselves and accept the disdainful looks from the audience.
