The banquet began. Everyone toasted each other, chatted, and laughed. It was very lively.
Wang Teng did not know many people, so he sat in his seat and tasted the food. Occasionally, he would take a sip of wine. He was happy to be at ease.
Beautiful music came to his ears. The guqin master was playing the guqin. Attribute bubbles popped out from his fingertips.
[Guqin Skills * 10]
[Guqin Skills * 8]
…
"Even guqin skills have attributes!" Wang Teng picked it up with interest.
[Guqin Master]: 36/100 (Basic)
There was another profession in the secondary profession column.
"What's this for? I don't play the guqin." Wang Teng did not know whether to laugh or cry. He just picked it up out of curiosity. He did not expect there to be another profession.
"Forget it. I've already picked it up."
There were several guqin masters playing in the banquet. Since they were invited by the Wang Residence, they were naturally skilled. There were many attribute bubbles around them.
Wang Teng saw that there was an additional profession, so he picked it up again.
[Guqin Master]: 535/1000 (Advanced)
Compared to Runes, the Guqin Dao was much easier to improve. In just a short while, he had reached the level of an Advanced Guqin Master.
…
Su Lingxuan was eating happily at the side. She was a perfect example of the nature of a glutton.
She did not care about what was going on outside. She just ate and ate.
When she saw Wang Teng drinking, she was a little greedy and wanted to pour a cup for herself.
Just as her little hand reached for the wine jug, it was slapped.
"Slap!"
With a crisp sound, Su Lingxuan hurriedly retracted her hand. She saw that the back of her hand was red. It hurt so much that she kept sucking in cold air.
"Why did you hit me?" Su Lingxuan said angrily.
"You're just a child. Why are you drinking?" Wang Teng said.
"If you can drink, why can't I? You're only a few years older than me." Su Lingxuan felt inexplicably guilty, but she was still unconvinced.
"Firstly, I'm your Senior Brother. There's an ancient saying that an elder brother is like a father. A Senior Brother is also an elder brother. From this, it can be seen that I can be your father. Naturally, I have to take care of you! Secondly, a few years older is still older. If you don't agree, you have to ask your biological father why he didn't give birth to you a few years earlier. "Wang Teng said calmly.
Su Lingxuan was confused by his words about an elder brother being like a father. Her eyes were bewildered and her pretty face was stupefied. It took her a long time to come back to her senses. She was furious. "Bah, bah, bah! Wang Teng, you have bad intentions. You actually want to be my father."

This silly roe deer!
Wang Teng coughed dryly and said, "Cough, cough, I was just explaining a causal relationship to you. I don't want to be your father."
Su Lingxuan still wanted to defend himself.
"Stop!" Wang Teng hurriedly stopped her and said, "Hurry up and eat. If you don't eat, the others will finish eating."
Su Lingxuan suddenly quivered. She no longer cared about arguing with Wang Teng. She ate heartily and complained, "It's all your fault. You want to be my father for no reason. You're such a bad person!"
"Can you stop talking about this?" Wang Teng was speechless. He only said it once, but Su Lingxuan brought it up again and again. Was she afraid that others didn't know?
She didn't notice that many people around them were looking at them. Their gazes moved back and forth between him and Su Lingxuan. Their expressions were very strange.
Many of the people present were big shots with high martial arts cultivation. Their hearing was very strong. Although the conversation between the two wasn't loud, it still fell into their ears.
Principal Yang, who was sitting opposite them, said happily, "Göring, your two disciples are very interesting!"
Gorlin felt gloomy, but he said, "My disciple is naïve and innocent. Her nature is pure."
"Haha." Principal Yang laughed.
Wang Teng saw that the two of them were going against each other. He wondered if his teacher and Principal Yang had a grudge against each other.
Li Rongxue sat beside Lord Yang. When she saw Wang Teng, a hint of gloominess flashed across her face.
"You know President Göring's new disciple?" Lord Yang asked softly. He could tell from the slight change on Li Rongxue's face that something was wrong.
"Yes." Li Rongxue nodded. She didn't hide anything. She used voice transmission to tell him everything that happened when she killed the Cockscomb Jade Scale Python.
Lord Yang frowned. "The Yao family is getting more and more arrogant."
He glanced at a certain seat below. The Yao family had a high status in Yang City. Naturally, they were here today.
Therefore, he also used voice transmission to say these words.
"I think the Yao family has ulterior motives. Otherwise, they wouldn't have done this," Li Rongxue replied.
"It doesn't matter if they have ulterior motives. Since they dared to use such a method, we can't let them off easily. I'll send someone to investigate. If they really have ulterior motives, we can gather evidence," Lord Yang said.
Li Rongxue nodded. She hesitated for a moment before she told Lord Yang about how she tried to trick Wang Teng and asked him for help.
"You!" Lord Yang shook his head and tapped Li Rongxue's head with his finger.
Then, he looked at Wang Teng and called out, "Little Brother Wang Teng!"
"Your Highness!" Wang Teng was surprised when he heard the voice. He didn't know why Lord Yang called him. He couldn't help but look up.
"I've heard from Rongxue about what happened between the two of you. She was in the wrong this time. I apologize on her behalf. Here's a toast to you." Lord Yang drank the wine in his cup. He was very straightforward.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Lord Yang actually apologized to Wang Teng?
Although they were completely confused at this moment, they had no idea what was going on.
But, who was Lord Yang? Why did he apologize to Wang Teng personally?
According to Lord Yang, this apology was because something happened between the princess and Wang Teng. It seemed like they knew each other for a long time!
"You're exaggerating. It's just a small misunderstanding." Wang Teng stood up and replied.
"Sit, sit. Since it's a misunderstanding, it's better to talk it out." Lord Yang smiled and raised his cup again. "However, I still have to toast to you. As for the reason, you and I know very well. I won't say it out loud."
After he finished speaking, he drank another cup of wine. His appetite was so big that it made people gasp in admiration.
The people around them felt uncomfortable when they saw the two of them talking in riddles. However, since Lord Yang didn't say anything, they naturally couldn't ask.
"Brother Wang, I was in the wrong previously. I hope you don't take it to heart. We're still friends." Li Rongxue stood up and said.
"Princess, you don't have to take it to heart." Wang Teng smiled bitterly.
Lord Yang and the princess were willing to put down their pride and apologize in front of so many people. It was obvious that they were sincere. If he still didn't let it go, he would seem petty.
At this moment, the gazes of the young talents looking at Wang Teng changed.
Something fishy!
There was definitely something fishy between the princess and Wang Teng!
The two of them didn't look like they were enemies at all. Instead, many things seemed to have happened between them. They looked like … enemies!
Everyone was jealous!
Su Lingxuan pushed Wang Teng. "Hey, how did you know each other?"
"Do you want to know?" Wang Teng glanced at her from the corner of his eyes.
"Yes, yes." Su Lingxuan nodded furiously. She was very curious.
"I'm not telling you!" Wang Teng chuckled.
Su Lingxuan was speechless.
