A guy who became successful by selling successful studies once said that a millionaire's friends were all millionaires, and a multimillionaire's friends were all multimillionaires. Fang Yan felt that this sentence was bullshit.
For example, he had a billion strings of coins on his waist, and he was a very rich person. Ruan Qian, this pretty boy, probably wouldn't even have a million even if he searched his entire body. The others also didn't have that much money, but this didn't affect the deep friendship between them at all.
However, Fang Yan still clearly felt that there were circles between people. At this moment, at this place, the people who gathered together in groups of three to five formed small circles. These circles were closely connected, and there was me in you, and you in me.
What was worse was that Fang Yan didn't belong to any of these circles.
Well, if this circle had to be defined, it could only be: Swallow Dock Teen Idol Group.
They all came from Swallow Dock, a great and glorious yet low-key place.
Many people present didn't even know that there would be such a small village on the map, and that there would be such a tribe.
The only comforting thing was that the Heavenly Queen, Summer, was always by their side. Even if countless people took the initiative to greet and toast her, there were even more people who tried to pull her into other circles to prevent her from getting too close to Fang Yan and offending the men of the General Family.
However, Summer was like a beautiful ginkgo tree, unperturbed by the wind and unafraid of the thunder. She stretched out her beautiful branches and deeply rooted herself in the soil where Fang Yan was.
In Ye Fengsheng's words, this girl was really a real man!
Summer was the most dazzling star tonight, and her every move was the focus of everyone's attention. Because of Summer's existence, Fang Yan and the others were always under the illumination of a ten-million-watt light bulb.
General Xing naturally discovered Summer's existence, and someone had already reported her provocative behavior to him.
"Why don't I go have a drink with her?" Li Guo Qiang squinted his eyes as he sized up Summer and said aloud.
General Xing waved his hand and said, "This kind of thing can't be forced. It's not a big deal to socialize with friends — "
Li Guo Qiang stopped talking and started to chat with the people around him.
This was indeed a high-standard charity banquet. Countless celebrities and celebrities had gathered here. Ma Tian, who had just become the richest man in Hua Xia because his e-commerce website was listed in the United States, Pan Shitou, the real estate magnate, the chairman of Hua Tian Entertainment, and some business and entertainment celebrities that Fang Yan found familiar but couldn't name.
Bruce Lee also came.
Bruce Lee was older than Fang Yan and the others. During the summer vacation, Bruce Lee brought his girlfriend back to Swallow Dock to play. Fang Yan, Ye Fengsheng and the others even had a water fight naked in Shihezi. They didn't have much in common and didn't have many opportunities to interact with each other. However, they were all children who grew up in Swallow Dock, so at least they were familiar with each other.
Bruce Lee came with his friends. There were three middle-aged men about his age. They were talking and laughing behind him. They seemed to be having a good time. However, the one walking in front of them was a young man who was much younger than them. This young man looked to be about the same age as Fang Yan and the others.
Fang Yan and Bruce Lee stood up to greet him. This was the proper etiquette. Bruce Lee had a square face and thick eyebrows. He looked very dignified. He looked at Li Xiaotian and asked, "Your breath reeks of alcohol. You didn't drive, did you?"
"Not much. Less than two pounds per person." Bruce Lee smiled and said, "I didn't dare to drive. I got a driver to send us here."
Bruce Lee nodded and turned to look at Fang Yan. He said with a smile, "I heard you broke through again?"
"I don't know if it's good or bad," Fang Yan said in distress. "There's no one to lead the way. I can only find my own way."
"It's always a good thing," Bruce Lee said with a smile. "But there's a balance between work and rest. Let's have fun tonight — if you need anything, just come to me. As your big brother, I have to take care of you in Yanjing City. I don't want to hear your gossip when I get back. "
"Thank you. I'll definitely trouble Brother Xiaolong if there's anything." Fang Yan thanked Bruce Lee for taking care of them.
"Bruce Lee, are these your friends?" The young man who came with Bruce Lee stared at Fang Yan and the others and asked curiously.
"Young Master Qin, they're the children of my neighbors. They're my younger brothers." Bruce Lee originally didn't want to introduce Fang Yan and the others to his friends. They weren't in the same circle anyway. There was no point in introducing them. But since Young Master Qin took the initiative to ask, he had to stand up and introduce them.
Bruce Lee pointed at Li Xiaotian and said, "My younger brother, Li Xiaotian. Xiaotian, this is Qin Shaofeng — you can call him Young Master Qin too. "
"Hello, Young Master Qin." Li Xiaotian smiled and greeted Qin Shaofeng. He could tell that his brother cared a lot about Qin Shaofeng's attitude.
Qin Shaofeng nodded. They got to know each other.
Bruce Lee pointed at Fang Yan and said, "Fang Yan, Fang as in square and upright, Yan as in Yanhuang — he's a teacher in Huacheng."
"This is Zhu Zidan —"
"Wait, wait, wait." Qin Shaofeng, who had snow-white skin and delicate features, waved his hand and said. He stared at Fang Yan and said, "Fang Yan? Huacheng's teacher — Fang Yan? "
Fang Yan looked at him warily and didn't answer his question.
He thought, where did this brat jump out from? Let's hear what he has to say first. If he's my enemy, I'll point at General Xing and say he's Fang Yan. If he's my admirer and also point at General Xing and say he's Fang Yan, then they might start fighting. How nice.
Bruce Lee looked at Fang Yan in surprise and thought, how did this brat get so famous? Even Young Master Qin knows his name and background?
"You're looking for Fang Yan?" Ye Fengsheng also stared at Qin Shaofeng cautiously and asked. Fang Yan had too many enemies. As his brothers, they had to be on guard to not get ambushed.
"I'm not looking for him. But I've heard of him. "Qin Shaofeng laughed and said," Awesome. Awesome person. In Yan Jing City, General Ling was as arrogant as the King of Heaven, not putting anyone in his eyes. But when he went to Huacheng, a layer of skin was scraped off his face — it's said that the guy who scraped off his face was called Fang Yan, a teacher in Huacheng. Brother, don't tell me that Fang Yan is you? "
Fang Yan felt very conflicted. When faced with honor, should he accept it or reject it?
"That's him." Ye Fengsheng said proudly, "He's that Fang Yan."
To Ye Fengsheng, his brother's honor was his honor.
He was very proud now.
"Hahahaha, it's really you —" Qin Shaofeng laughed.
As he laughed, his face darkened and said, "I see General Xing. Alright, let's not stand with this guy, lest those petty people from the Jiang family bear a grudge —"
Then, he turned around and walked toward where General Xing was standing.
As soon as Qin Shaofeng left, the middle-aged people who were chatting with Bruce Lee also left.
A hint of panic flashed in Bruce Lee's eyes. He looked at Fang Yan and asked, "Do you have a conflict with Jiang Junling?"
"Something unpleasant happened," Fang Yan said frankly. This kind of thing couldn't be hidden even if he wanted to. He just couldn't understand. The conflict between him and Jiang Junling was very hidden. Only those people in Huacheng knew about it. How did it spread to Yanjing?
Fang Yan wouldn't believe that there wasn't a murderer behind the scenes. But, which family did this?
If he and Jiang Junling had a conflict, who would benefit the most?
The Jiang family? Their family was the most likely.
After all, the four families of Huacheng, the Liu family and the Gu family had formed an alliance with him because of the Rubik's Cube technology. Only the Jiang family's ambition didn't die. They actually held onto the thigh of the Jiang family, and the two families seemed to be connected by marriage.
However, if this news was really released by the Jiang family … Weren't they afraid of offending Jiang Junling, the most promising person in the Jiang family?
Among these rumors, Jiang Junling's reputation was the most severely damaged. He had incurred a lot of hatred because of these rumors, but he had also established a lot of prestige.
Ordinary people wouldn't dare to provoke a man who even Jiang Junling bullied to the point of crying, right?
Fang Yan looked at Bruce Lee and said, "Brother Xiaolong, I'm really sorry to have caused you trouble —"
Bruce Lee was different from Ye Fengsheng and Li Xiaotian. Ye Fengsheng and Li Xiaotian were idle in Swallow Dock. They had food and drink, so they didn't need to flatter anyone or please anyone.
However, Bruce Lee was the business representative of the Li family. He needed connections, a circle, someone to help him speak, someone to help him raise money, and someone to help him clear up connections. All roads lead to Rome. If someone closed the gates of Rome, you wouldn't be able to enter the city even if you had ten thousand roads.
His friends, who had called him brothers just now, immediately turned and left when they heard that Fang Yan and Jiang Junling had a conflict.
This was profit, this was reality.
Bruce Lee sighed softly and said, "This has nothing to do with you."
A middle-aged man couldn't bear to see him like this. He turned and walked to Bruce Lee and said, "Xiaolong, we are businessmen — we have to take care of our fellow countrymen, but we also have to take care of the big picture. Let's go and sit with Young Master Jiang. You can say that you don't know anything. This matter has nothing to do with you anyway. "
Bruce Lee hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Hou, thank you for the reminder. However, these are my younger brothers. I can't abandon them — "
The man sighed and turned to leave.
Qin Shaofeng pointed at Bruce Lee and laughed, saying, "Bruce Lee, don't be reckless. That kid is a troublemaker. Do you know how deep the conflict between him and Jiang Junling is? Do you think it can be resolved by saying sorry and setting up a banquet? Childish. "
"Qin Shaofeng, who has a conflict with my brother again?" A woman's dissatisfied voice came over.
Another group of young people in bright clothes came over, led by Jiang Junling who wore glasses and had a gentle smile on his face.
The smile on Fang Yan's face was like a dried chrysanthemum. Tonight's banquet was really getting more and more lively.
