Chapter 1328: Chapter 1024: Plague God
“Alright, but be careful. Try to get a private room and avoid conflicts. Especially avoid any disputes with people from the Birthplace and Star Ring City.”
Su Mo advised quietly.
“Don’t worry, we’re just going to have fun, not to cause trouble. Boss, you’re overthinking this.”
Sun Duoxiang replied confidently.
….
Black and White Limit Fortress·D12 District.
Late Wind Restaurant.
The entire large restaurant was booked, with a total of two hundred tables set.
At the front, there was a music stage with a special light music band invited to perform.
Soft lighting shone on the stage, and the clear and lodious music echoed.
At this mont, guests were entering with laughter and chatter.
A closer look revealed not only so high-ranking officers but also the figures of major capital giants from the Federation.
For example, in the Z district, almost all the mbers of the Five Dragon Heads Family were present.
The entire banquet hall was extraordinarily lively!
“Old Li!”
“Haha, Mr. Zhang, long ti no see. You’ve co to the fortress too?”
“Of course, I’ve co up. It’s a rare opportunity to go to Ceres, how could I not go?”
“Exactly, life is all about seizing these rare chances!”
“Let’s have a good drink today.”
“No problem.”
…
Su Mo and Qian Chengxue walked into the banquet hall arm in arm. The large hall was already almost halfway seated.
“Where should we sit?”
Su Mo was montarily at a loss.
Because the Fifth Legion was newly ford, Su Mo was really not familiar with most of the NCOs.
If it were the First Expeditionary Corps, the situation might have been different, with groups of people surrounding him.
Of course, Su Mo could sit at the main table and dine with Commander Tia. But as soon as this thought ca to mind, Su Mo quickly dismissed it.
Commander Tia, Su Mo always felt was not to be trifled with and was trouble, and he had no interest in getting close.
In fact, if it were possible, Su Mo wouldn’t really want to attend this dinner at all.
However, considering she had been kind to him, back in the Birthplace, when they were being chased by the Monster.
She was the one who used the Star Destroyer·Phantom Flower to launch an attack to save them, so he still had to give her face.
At this mont, Qian Chengxue surveyed the venue, her eyes brightened slightly, and she quietly said to Su Mo, “Su Mo, how about we sit at the table with the Lin Family? We can sit with Father and Mother.”
“Uh, how did they get to the fortress as well?”
Su Mo followed Qian Chengxue’s gaze to the right front area of the hall, where Lin Yaotian, Xiao Xun, Lin Hai, and others were gathered, looking very lively.
“Well, I knew Father was at the fortress, but I didn’t expect Mother to co along too.”
Qian Chengxue explained.
“Alright, let’s go over.”
Su Mo nodded and took Qian Chengxue’s hand, walking over to the table where the Lin Family was gathered.
The Lin Family table was a standard large round table for thirty people.
Lin Yaotian and Xiao Xun sat in the main seats, with Lin Yaotian’s elder brother Lin Zhou and other siblings and so of the younger generation beside them.
“I tell you, Third Brother, you didn’t have to lead the team personally for this trip. I could have managed it, are you still not confident in ?”
Lin Zhou said with a false smile.
Lin Yaotian didn’t embarrass Lin Zhou too much, just replied coldly.
“It’s not that I don’t trust you, it’s just better to do it myself.”
“Heh.”
Lin Zhou sneered and said no more. After all, Lin Yaotian’s position as clan leader was very stable. Last ti, when he pushed for sending supplies to the front lines, he gained recognition from the Federation.
Moreover, afterwards, when the Federation received the supplies returned from the front lines, they gave substantial support to the Lin Family. So, Lin Yaotian’s prestige in the family was exceptionally high, direct conflict wouldn’t yield good results.
“Ah, today is a good day. It’s rare for Commander Tia to invite our family, let’s not talk business.”
“Let’s eat.”
…
The other siblings present persuaded one another.
At this ti, Su Mo and Qian Chengxue walked over, and Lin Hai was the first to notice, exclaiming with delight.
“Qian Chengxue, Su Mo….”
For a mont, everyone at the table looked up.
Xiao Xun saw Su Mo, and her normally cold expression suddenly showed a hint of excitent.
Lin Yaotian was also quite pleased to see Qian Chengxue and Su Mo.
Lin Xiaoyu’s eyes lit up even more.
“Father, Mother.”
Su Mo and Qian Chengxue greeted in unison.
“Sit down, share a al with us.”
Lin Yaotian promptly invited Su Mo and Qian Chengxue to sit down.
However, while so were pleased, others were not. Lin Zhou and the other siblings present adopted unnatural expressions upon seeing Su Mo. So even seed like they wanted to say sothing but didn’t dare speak up.
“Alright.”
Su Mo and Qian Chengxue sat down without noticing anything strange.
Lin Hai was very pleased and started talking to Su Mo.
“It’s been a while, how have you been lately?”
“Pretty good, how about you?”
Su Mo replied with a smile.
“Sa as always, dealing with trivial matters, busy to death every day.”
Lin Hai said in a good mood.
Then Lin Xiaoyu leaned over, staring at Su Mo, and complained, “You promised to take on so exciting adventures, but you always bail on .”
“Uh, next ti…”
Su Mo’s smile froze, not knowing what to say.
Just then, Lin Zhou, who was sitting next to Lin Yaotian, suddenly stood up.
Lin Yaotian turned to look at his elder brother and asked, “Big brother, where are you going?”
Lin Zhou coughed lightly and then, pretending nonchalance, said, “Oh, I just rembered, I made plans to have a drink with General Sun Xiang, so I won’t sit here.”
Having said that, Lin Zhou was about to leave.
At that mont, Lin Family elders in attendance imdiately stood up and said, “Brother Lin Zhou, I’ll join you, we also want to get acquainted with General Sun Xiang.”
“I’ll co too, introduce .”
…
In an instant, four or five Lin Family elders left the table.
At this point, several of Lin Hai’s cousins also stood up, with very awkward expressions, and said to Lin Yaotian, “Clan Leader, I have a few friends coming over, I’m going to entertain them.”
“Yes, my friends are calling too.”
…
The originally bustling table imdiately emptied out by more than half.
It was indeed true what they say, good news travels fast, but bad news travels even faster.
After a few younger generations walked out, they whispered, “Let’s get out of here, how did that Plague God show up.”
“I must be seeing things, he’s in debt for ten trillion, and if he marries Qian Chengxue, the Lin Family won’t have to pay it back, right?”
“Pay it back? Not a chance, even selling the Lin Family wouldn’t cover it. That’s enough to buy 100 Star Destroyers! Can you even imagine that?”
“But if it’s not paid, I heard that Star Ring City would hold co-liability!”
“Sigh~ so better stay away, best pretend not to know him.”
