"Hey, why are you alone? Where's Yan?"
Ding Ning's hair was messy, and his eyes were bloodshot, but he was extremely excited. With a bright smile on his face, he walked down from the second floor. Seeing that Yang Ting was alone, he asked in surprise, "What's wrong?
"You're finally done."
Yang Ting stood up and said with some bitterness. Then she replied with grievance, "Xiao Yan received a call from home early in the morning, asking her to attend someone's engagement party. You were busy, so she didn't tell you."
"Oh."
Ding Ning didn't take it seriously and stretched himself. Then he thought of something and suddenly became stiff. He hurriedly asked, "Engagement party? What's the date today? "
"The 18th. What's wrong?"
Yang Ting looked at the date on the mobile phone and answered in confusion.
"Damn it, I hope I'm still in time."
Ding Ning's face changed dramatically. Seeing it was already 11: 40, he didn't have time to wash up. He just said, "Stay here and don't go anywhere." Then he hurriedly rushed to the bedroom on the second floor.
Yang Ting was puzzled and didn't know what happened to Ding Ning. After a while, she hurriedly went upstairs, only to find that there was no trace of Ding Ning in the room. Only a strange six-pointed star-like thing was still emitting faint fluctuations.
"What is this? Where is he? "
Yang Ting was confused. She didn't expect that the six-pointed star-like thing could make a living person disappear. She looked for Ding Ning everywhere, but unfortunately, she couldn't find him. If she hadn't seen the magic of Ding Ning, she almost couldn't help but call the police.
"Brother."
In front of the gate of Fairsky, Zhao Zilong saw that it was almost time. When he was about to turn around and go in, he suddenly heard a clear female voice.
Turning his head to look at the young girl who was travel-worn, Zhao Zilong showed a touch of affection on his face. "Chenxi, why are you back? Don't you have classes? "
"Brother, it's a big day. How can I not come back?"
Zhao Chenxi happily took Zhao Zilong's arm and said coquettishly, "Besides, it's Saturday today. It won't affect the class."
"Hehe, dad doesn't know you're back. Hurry up and go in."
Zhao Zilong took Zhao Chenxi's luggage in his hand and quietly got rid of her arm.
Zhao Chenxi did not know. She had always thought that he was her brother, but he knew very well that they were not related by blood.
In the past, Zhao Chenxi was still young, and it was okay for her to act more intimately. But now she was a big girl. If she still maintained such intimate behavior, her father would be very unhappy.
Zhao Chenxi did not notice Zhao Zilong's subtle distancing action. She stared at Zhao Zilong with her beautiful eyes and said in a sweet and innocent voice, "Brother, you seem to have become much darker."
"Hehe, soldiers are exposed to the sun and rain all day long. How could they not be tanned?"
Zhao Zilong said with a smile as he walked into the hotel.
Zhao Chenxi tilted her head and looked at Zhao Zilong up and down. She giggled and said, "Brother, you used to be handsome, but you looked like a gigolo. Now that your skin is a little darker, you look more manly."
Zhao Zilong could not help laughing. He rubbed Zhao Chenxi's head affectionately and joked, "Little girl, now you know how to be a man. Are you in love?"
Zhao Chenxi blushed and pouted. "Brother, you only know how to bully me. I am not in love."
A tall and straight figure involuntarily appeared in her heart, and a touch of disappointment flashed through her eyes. "Does he know that Shen Muqing is going to be engaged to my brother?"
"That's only a matter of time. When you meet a boy you like, you must tell me immediately. I will help you check him out. It's not that easy to chase after my sister." Zhao Zilong said with a frown.
Zhao Zilong did not notice her strangeness and said proudly.
Zhao Chenxi wrinkled her nose and made a mischievous grimace, but she felt a little guilty in her heart. She was worried about her gains and losses. "He is so excellent. If he really becomes my boyfriend, I think my brother will not object, even if he is my brother, right?"
"Chenxi, why are you back?"
Zhao Tianya was greeting the guests with a smile. Suddenly, he saw his baby daughter come in with Zhao Zilong. With a touch of affection flashing through his eyes, he quickly stepped forward and pretended to blame her unhappily.
"Dad, how can I not come back on such a big day as my brother's engagement?"
Zhao Chenxi took Zhao Tianya's arm with a smile, stuck out her tongue, and said coquettishly.
"Oh, you, it is just an engagement, not a marriage. Besides, you are a student now, and you should focus on your studies. What if you delay your studies?"
Zhao Tianya blamed her in a low voice, but he did not hide the love on his face at all. He did not seem to be blaming her at all.
"Dad, I am not a child. Can you not nag all day like when I was a child?"
Zhao Tianya, the master of the Zhao Family, had always been known for being cold and harsh outside, but in front of his baby daughter, Zhao Chenxi, he had no temper at all. After being complained by her discontentedly, he could only shake his head with a bitter smile and say nothing.
"Dad, it's almost time. I'll go to see if Muqing is ready."
Zhao Zilong looked at this warm scene with a smile, walked over, and said softly.
"Well, go ahead."
Zhao Tianya said noncommittally, and all his attention was on his baby daughter.
Although Zhao Zilong was excellent and he had high hopes for him, he was not his biological son after all.
In his heart, Zhao Chenxi was his only daughter, and Zhao Zilong was just a successor whom he raised up.
Everything was for the development of the Zhao Family, and also for the power of the family to always be in the hands of his own bloodline.
Zhao Zilong bowed slightly, nodded to the nearby guests with a smile, and then turned to leave. His demeanor and etiquette were impeccable, which made the guests who secretly watched them envious.
The Zhao Family had Zhao Tianya, the master with great talent and strategy, and the next generation had a qualified successor. With Zhao Zilong, the son of a unicorn, as the successor, the future of the Zhao Family could be foreseen, and it was only a matter of time before the Zhao Family entered the ranks of the aristocratic families.
People always had the psychology of comparison. While they envied the Zhao Family for having Zhao Zilong, they subconsciously thought of Bai Qing, the substitute master of the Bai Family, who was also a genius and had the power of the Bai Family at a young age. Subconsciously, they looked at the seat where Bai Qing was sitting.
But when they looked at the seat, they were shocked because they saw that the people who were sitting with Bai Qing at the moment were Gu Yongxuan, Wei Biaobiao, Lin Hu, Mosquito, Li Zhe, Yang Ge, and Lu Tingzhen …
They turned out to be the devil incarnate of the young generation of Andu. Both Gu Yongxuan and Wei Biaobiao were among the Eight Childes of Andu, and they were qualified to sit with Bai Qing.
Logically speaking, Lin Hu, Li Zhe, Lu Tingzhen, and the others seemed to have a lower status than the three of them, but the problem was that as the Supreme Beauty became the hottest luxury goods in the upper class of Andu, these Childes who had participated in the shares for fun at the beginning had now risen in status and were in the limelight for a while, and they were not inferior to the Eight Childes of Andu.
After all, the so-called Eight Childes of Andu were just Childes who were born in good families, had abilities, and were valued by others for their development potential.
Lin Hu and his companions used to be members of the Witch Gang. Although they were quite famous, they were purely a group of powerful Childes who hung around together, so people did not think highly of them at all.
But now it was different. They had invested in Zuihongyan and had their own serious careers, which were promising careers, so people had to look at them with new eyes.
Especially as Xiao Chunan returned to his old army, Zhao Zilong and Dai Zhefeng also joined the army one after another, and they gradually faded out of people's sight. Lin Hu and his companions faintly had the momentum to surpass the Eight Childes of Andu.
Some busybodies suggested whether they should re-rank the Eight Childes of Andu, and many people were quite interested in it. It was said that although the re-ranking had not been officially carried out, Lin Hu and his companions had faintly qualified to compete for the Eight Childes of Andu.
This was also the reason why Lin Hu and his companions sat with Bai Qing, which attracted everyone's attention. This was the combination of the old and the new of the Eight Childes of Andu.
The most important thing was that Bai Qing was the strongest competitor for the First Childe of Andu. Although he was young, as the substitute family master of the Bai Family, he did not have to give face to the Zhao Family at all, let alone attend Zhao Zilong's engagement party in person, but he came.
Perhaps some people thought that he was giving face to the Zhao Family, but more people looked playful, thinking that he came with the purpose of suppressing Zhao Zilong.
It should be noted that Zhao Zilong was the First Childe of Andu and the heir of the Zhao Family, but he was not as young as Bai Qing, who had become the substitute family master of a powerful family. Whether in terms of identity or status, the gap between Zhao Zilong and him was not small.
Even if Zhao Tianya abdicated now and gave the position of the family master to Zhao Zilong, he would still be a little inferior to Bai Qing, the family master of a powerful family.
After all, although the Zhao Family had the hope to be promoted to a powerful family, it was only a hope. It had not become a powerful family yet, and there was still a big gap between it and the Bai Family, an established family.
Therefore, now Bai Qing was fully qualified to despise Zhao Zilong, which made many people who were jealous of the Zhao Family secretly hope that the two most famous young masters of the new and the old of the First Childe of Andu could have a fierce collision, so that they could gloat.
"Childe Bai, why are you here? Don't tell me you're here to cause trouble? "
There were many people who had this idea, and even Gu Yongxuan had this suspicion, so he joked with a smile.
Wei Biaobiao and others also looked at Bai Qing curiously, waiting for his answer.
Although they were of the same age, Bai Qing's identity was still there. Even if the word "substitute" was still on his head, how could a dignified family master lower himself to come to Zhao Zhilong's engagement party in person? They did not believe that Bai Qing would be so kind.
Bai Qing smiled mysteriously. "I have no grievances with the Zhao Family, so how could I come to make trouble?"
"With your identity, you are flattering the Zhao Family!"
Wei Biaobiao said a little unhappily.
"Right, you are simply helping the evildoer do evil, and you are supporting the Zhao Family!"
Lin Hu also blamed him angrily. If he had not known that Bai Qing and Ding Ning were very close friends, he would have wanted to drive Bai Qing away immediately.
Li Zhe and others were not familiar with Bai Qing, but they obviously had the same idea, so they echoed him and nodded repeatedly.
They could not be blamed for being narrow-minded, but they really did not have a good impression of the Zhao Family. If the elders of their families had not asked them to act as representatives to go through the formalities, they would not have been willing to join in the fun.
Bai Qing smiled indifferently and said lightly, "I am here to watch the fun."
"Watch the fun? What fun? "
Hearing this, everyone's heart moved. They did not think that Bai Qing would be so bored as to really come to watch the fun of the "engagement".
"You will know in a while."
Bai Qing kept them guessing meaningfully.
Everyone gnashed their teeth and glared at him, wishing they could beat this guy who liked to keep them guessing.
But they were really not familiar with him. They only knew that he was Ding Ning's sworn brother, so they subconsciously felt close to him and spontaneously got together at the same table, but their relationship was far from the point where they could beat him and force him to tell the truth.
