Chapter 124 - Stars Twinkling Around the Moon
Ling Fei had just heard Ling Huang say that Lu Xuan would definitely be here today. She never expected that in the blink of an eye, she would actually see him right here.
She had been worried about Lu Xuan before, as she knew of the Holy Dragon Corporation’s reputation. They were making aggressive moves and were clearly coming for Lu Xuan’s head, so she was terrified that he would be in danger.
How would she know that Lu Xuan actually seemed not to care at all, putting on a thoughtless appearance?
However, before she could call out, she saw Lu Xuan put a finger to his lips in a gesture of silence. Ling Fei immediately understood that Lu Xuan still did not want to be discovered.
This was even though he was happily gulping down food while seated boldly at the table.
Even then, nobody seemed to notice him. Even the people right next to him did not see him, as though he had cast a spell of invisibility.
Even her own father had not noticed Lu Xuan nearby when he had scanned the surroundings earlier.
However, before she could walk over there, she saw a burgundy-colored figure heading briskly towards the table.
The moment he appeared, all eyes present were focused on him!
The Song family’s Song Shijie!
In an instant, everyone realized who this young man was.
“He’s Song Shijie? As expected, he’s outstanding!”
Many people could see how exceptional Song Shijie was, and many of the famous and influential people of Min Province went forward to surround him. They served as a foil to him, like stars twinkling around a moon.
There was no mistaking it. This man was the real host of this banquet.
From the Holy Dragon Corporation, the scion of the Song family, Song Shijie!
Song Shijie paid no heed to the compliments the important people of Min Province were showering him with, instead announcing, “Ladies and gentlemen, I am Song Shijie. Some of you should know me, some of you do not. It is my first time returning to this country to work for the Corporation, so it’s normal if you don’t know me. However, from this day onwards, I think you should all get to know me!
“Starting today, the Holy Dragon Corporation is going to make inroads into Min Province. We’ve invited everyone here today in hopes that you can bear witness to this. However, that is not my only reason for inviting everyone here today!”
