After one song, the ten women's faces had become very pale, and their blood had almost disappeared. The Jiang clan's people asked the ten women to leave quickly. As for where they went, Lu An did not know.
The performance continued, and so did the exchange. Lu An picked up a cup of blood wine from the table and drank it. His gaze swept across the audience again, and finally stopped at the upper level. It had been a long time since the banquet began. He realized that among the four children of the clan leader, the eldest miss Jiang Xiao was the most popular. She had the most people taking the initiative to greet her. However, after being in the Jiang clan for so long, he had heard many rumors. Everyone said that the clan leader would pass the position of young master to the second son, Jiang Tian. After all, Jiang Tian was the eldest son and the strongest, so it was reasonable. Why did everyone not curry favor with Jiang Tian, but went to Jiang Xiao's side?
Lu An could not think of a reason, so he asked Wang Wei casually, "Why are there so many people around Jiang Xiao?"
Wang Wei was startled. She naturally knew what Chu Xing was asking. She had been living in the fourth son's palace, so she naturally heard more rumors than Lu An. She said softly, "I heard that the eldest miss has fallen in love with a young master from a top clan. Moreover, this young master's status in the clan is not low. It is said that he is also the son of the clan leader, but I don't know if he is the young master. However, if the two of them really get married and the eldest miss marries into a top clan, not to mention these people, even the entire Jiang clan will have to rely on the eldest miss to gain benefits. "
Lu An came to a realization when he heard this. He had indeed not thought of this aspect. He looked at Jiang Xiao again. This woman could form a connection with a top clan in the Spirit Race. If he could get close to this woman …
To be honest, Lu An had indeed begun to think about whether he could get close to this woman. However, getting close to a woman was completely different from getting close to a man. There was no psychological burden to get close to a man, and it was purely a mission. However, getting close to a woman required a lot of scruples. After all, men and women should not touch each other … Even if it was not a problem in the Spirit Race's civilization, it was a huge obstacle for Lu An, who adhered to the Sengoku civilization.
Because of this, Lu An could only think about it briefly and quickly gave up. However, at this moment, a figure suddenly stood up in the upper level area and directly looked in the direction of the person cooperating with him.
Lu An's brows furrowed when he saw this person. More importantly, this person quickly saw Lu An, and completely focused on Lu An.
Then, the man immediately left his table and walked quickly to Jiang Xiao. He waved his hands excitedly and said something. In the end, he even pointed in Lu An's direction. When Jiang Xiao heard the man's words, she actually stood up from her seat. Her tall and slender figure straightened as she looked in the direction the man was pointing.
Jiang Xiao's gaze was fixed on Lu Jiang Jiang Xiao..
Wang Wei, who was beside Lu An, also noticed Jiang Xiao's gaze. She was clearly stunned, and when she saw the person beside Jiang Xiao, her heart tightened. She quickly turned to Lu An, wanting to say something, but she realized that Lu An was already looking in Jiang Xiao's direction.
Before Wang Wei could say anything, she saw Jiang Xiao and the person moving together. Under everyone's gaze, they walked towards Lu An!
Jiang Xiao was the main focus of the banquet. Jiang Xiao's movement immediately attracted everyone's attention. Even the upper levels of the Kang Clan and the head of the Kang Clan, Jiang Huai, were the same! After all, Jiang Xiao had never left her seat since the banquet started. It had always been others who went to look for her. Everyone wanted to know who Jiang Xiao was looking for and who she was going to see if she left her seat!
The atmosphere in the banquet hall immediately became quiet. Even the music performance on the stage became abrupt. The performers didn't even know if they should continue performing. However, no one shouted for them to stop, so they could only brace themselves and perform.
Step by step, Jiang Xiao passed between the tables. She had a tall and slender figure, long and slender legs that were not skinny. Although Jiang Xiao's appearance was not top-notch, her figure was ridiculously good. Because of her figure, time seemed very slow. When she finally stopped, everyone took a deep breath and immediately looked at the two people at the table in front of them!
It was a pair of man and woman that they had never seen before in the area of the collaborator. And in Jiang Xiao's eyes, there was no woman, only a man!
It was Wang Wei and Lu An!
Wang Wei hurriedly stood up and said to Jiang Xiao, "Greetings to Eldest Miss!"
At the same time, Wang Wei anxiously looked at Chu Xing who was still sitting. She stared hard at Lu An and signaled him to stand up!
Lu An also wanted to stand up, but he wasn't as anxious as Wang Wei. After standing up, he cupped his hands and said to Jiang Xiao, "Eldest Miss."
"You are Chu Xing?" Jiang Xiao looked at Lu An and raised her eyebrows.
"Yes." Lu An put down his hands and said.
Although the banquet hall was big, it was only a hundred feet. The music on the stage was clearly much softer. It even stopped after being signaled. Everyone in the banquet hall heard Jiang Xiao's words clearly. It was obvious that Jiang Xiao walked over only for this man. Everyone's eyes were naturally focused on this man!
His appearance was ordinary and his temperament was average. Other than the scar on his face, there was nothing special about him. Almost everyone didn't know why Jiang Xiao found this man, but … there was a portion of people who knew.
Wang Wei, Lu An, Fourth Young Master … and everyone from Fourth Young Master knew why. Because the person standing beside Jiang Xiao was none other than Jiang Ping's daughter, Jiang Xin!
"Aunt! It's him! " Jiang Xin raised her finger and pointed at Lu An's nose. She was so angry that her face turned red as she said, "It's him who bullied me!"
Jiang Xiao and Jiang Ping were biological siblings, so Jiang Xiao was naturally Jiang Xin's aunt. Jiang Xin didn't have any feelings for her younger brother, Jiang Ping, but she had watched Jiang Xin grow up and liked Jiang Xin very much. Jiang Xin also liked Jiang Xiao very much and tried to please Jiang Xiao since she was young. As long as her parents punished her, she would look for her aunt to stand up for her, so many things were left unsettled. In other words, Jiang Xiao also played a large part in Jiang Xin being spoiled to this extent.
Jiang Xin's words were very loud. There was no need to listen carefully. Everyone in the banquet hall heard it clearly! Everyone immediately frowned. After all, an outsider dared to bully a member of the Jiangs. Moreover, she was Fourth Young Master's daughter. No one could tolerate such a thing! Because of this, everyone looked at Lu An with eyes filled with hostility and even killing intent!
After all, not everyone in the banquet hall knew Jiang Xin's personality. Only a few people knew her personality. They instinctively chose to believe Jiang Xin and their own family. They didn't need to find out the truth or listen to Lu An's explanation.
Wang Wei didn't have the right to speak for Lu An when facing Jiang Xiao. However, she looked at Lu An anxiously, hoping that Lu An could quickly explain.
Lu An didn't explain immediately. Instead, he turned to look in the direction of the higher-ups in the distance. He looked at … Jiang Ping.
Jiang Ping had personally said that he wouldn't let his daughter cause any trouble for him. This time, it meant that Jiang Ping had failed. Jiang Ping had the obligation to fulfill his promise and help him out. He didn't have to ask for it himself.
Jiang Ping naturally noticed Lu An's gaze and knew what Lu An wanted him to do. In fact, it wasn't appropriate for him to step in at this time. After all, his big sister's temper wasn't very good. He couldn't argue with her and was even raised by her. Otherwise, he wouldn't be suppressed by her in terms of educating his daughter. However, Lu An was someone he valued very much. Therefore, he took a deep breath, stood up, and strode towards Lu An.
Jiang Xiao naturally knew that Jiang Ping was walking over. Jiang Ping quickly arrived before Jiang Xiao and Chaos. He smiled and said to Jiang Xiao, "Big Sister, this is just a misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding?" Jiang Xiao looked at her brother and said, "What Jiang Xin said to me just now wasn't as simple as a misunderstanding. He hit and scolded Jiang Xin. Isn't that true?"
Hit and scolded?
Hearing these words, the Jiang clansmen in the field frowned even more. Not to mention the Jiang family members, even the people who were cooperating with them looked at Lu An with a serious expression.
"He did make a move, but it wasn't considered hitting or scolding." Jiang Ping felt helpless and said to his sister, "You know Xinxin's personality. Many things are just misunderstandings."
"Tsk!" Jiang Xiao's gaze became very dissatisfied and she said, "You said that he really did make a move. Xinxin's your daughter. Why don't you feel sorry for her at all? Why do you want me, her aunt, to stand up for her?"
With that, Jiang Xiao directly ignored Jiang Ping and looked at Lu An in front of her.
"Speak." Jiang Xiao's voice instantly became very cold. She looked at Lu An with her slender eyes and said, "How do you want to solve this?"
"…"
Lu An frowned and said indifferently without any respect, "You're the one who came to find me. Why are you asking me how to solve this?"
As soon as he said that, everyone gasped and looked at this man in shock!
