There were about 20 to 30 disciples of rising and veteran factions present, as well as Miao He, who was from a top faction.
If they all exchanged contact details with her, her network would expand significantly. This would also help her perform better as Black’s exclusive reporter and team reporter.
“Okay! Give me all of your phone numbers. Since you didn’t attack me, none of you owe me anything. I only hope that in the future, you’ll share information with me when I ask.”
Tian Ningning waved her Class 2 Star Web reporter pass around to show them that she was a Star Web reporter.
All of them looked at her with gratitude and felt that she was their savior.
They excitedly exchanged phone numbers with Tian Ningning and decided that they would do their best to repay Tian Ningning’s mercy when she called them in the future.
Previously, Lin Yuan looked impressed by Tian Ningning. But now, he felt that she was just as good at establishing connections as Listen was.
She could turn her enemies or a chance encounter into a resource she could use to further herself on Star Web in the future.
After Tian Ningning was done getting everyone’s numbers, Lin Yuan noticed that Manager Cai had yet to eat the eel meat.
Lin Yuan looked at Miao He and said, “Since they’re holding this meal for you, you should take responsibility for the conflict.”
Miao He’s heart skipped a beat. He had assumed that he had crossed the obstacle and did not expect the Moon Empress’ disciple to target him again.
Miao He’s hatred for Zheng Kaiyuan reached a peak. He felt that if Zheng Kaiyuan had not added that additional jibe, he would not have been targeted by Lin Yuan again.
Lin Yuan’s status was almost akin to a prince.
Hence, Miao He dared not bear any resentment toward Lin Yuan, not even a hint of it. Instead, he directed all his negative emotions at Zheng Kaiyuan.
Miao He anxiously bowed and said, “Lord Lin Yuan, all I did was receive and respond to an invitation. I never expected such an incident to take place. If you want me to shoulder the responsibility, I shall take on all of it. I can also pensate Miss Tian handsomely.”
Lin Yuan nodded and said, “You can discuss this with Tian Ningning privately. You can judge the situation yourself and pensate the Spirit Food Pavilion accordingly.”
Lin Yuan glanced at Manager Cai before adding, “I trust that you’ll be able to handle the matter properly.”
Miao He immediately realized what Lin Yuan meant and replied, “Don’t worry. I will make sure these people eat what they deserve. They won’t let your good intentions or the famous 300 dishes of Kitchen Fragrance Palace go to waste. Leave everything to me.”
Lin Yuan led Tian Ningning to the counter and settled the bill before leaving the Spirit Food Pavilion.
While they headed to the mansion, Tian Ningning stared at Lin Yuan. It seemed that she had many questions to ask him but did not know how to broach the topic.
“If you have any questions, just ask them. Don’t keep them to yourself. Speak your mind without holding anything back.”
Tian Ningning immediately let go of her concerns and said, “Can you tell me why so many young disciples of veteran and top factions were attacking Black on your behalf?”
Lin Yuan’s eyebrow twitched.
He had expected this question from Tian Ningning, and this question was also one that he had prepared an answer for during their meeting.
“It’s because they found out who my Master is at the Guard Ye Banquet.”
Tian Ningning immediately became curious.
Not even Class 5 Star Web reporters had the authority to attend and conduct interviews at the Guard Ye Banquet.
Thus, the Guard Ye Banquet was a mystery to Tian Ningning.
However, Tian Ningning knew that one had to be at least the main young disciple of a top faction to have the authority to attend the Guard Ye Banquet.
Tian Ningning had long guessed that either Black or Lin Yuan had a special status.
It was clear from his feys because even the most talented person that could prehend Willpower Runes would not have a Silver/Fantasy healing-type fey.
However, Tian Ningning could not figure out, or rather she did not dare to imagine, what status Lin Yuan’s Master had to allow him to bee the envy of direct descendants of top factions.
At that moment, Tian Ningning thought of the person who had spoken up to resolve the situation on Star Web.
At the time, Tian Ningning had assumed that Long Tao had used his connection to ask the Young Liege of Midnight Palace for help.
But now, it seemed that Lin Yuan and the Young Liege of Midnight Palace were actually acquainted.
Tian Ningning asked half-jokingly, “Haha, your Master can’t be the Moon Empress, right?”
The moment the words left her lips, Tian Ningning heard how ludicrous she sounded.
Even if she had no ill-intent, how could she talk about the Moon Empress in a joking manner?
Before Tian Ningning could cover up for her slip of the tongue, Lin Yuan nodded and smiled brightly.
Lin Yuan’s smile shot through Tian Ningning’s heart, and she suddenly felt that Lin Yuan’s face was more powerful than his actual abilities.
He nodded and said, “Yes, my Master is the Moon Empress.”
Tian Ningning almost slipped off Blackie.
For the rest of the journey, she remained silent and dazed as she absorbed the bombshell Lin Yuan had just dropped on her.
She wondered if she was dreaming.
How was it possible that she had accidentally bee the Moon Empress’ disciple’s exclusive reporter?
Her head snapped up as she fixed her eyes on Lin Yuan.
After today’s interaction, Black became even more real to her.
It turned out that the low-profile hero that had used a sea of flowers to save Millstone Town actually had such an incredible status.
