After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, it was Lin Feng’s turn to give a speech. Holding the script prepared by Zhu Xiuyue, he read out those welcoming words with a smile, in a very steady manner, and then announced the start of the lunch banquet.
Amidst the cheering, all the guests who arrived with regular invitations moved to dine at the Xinhai International Building’s hotel nearby, while those ordinary folks who ca to watch the ceremony, Zhu Xiuyue arranged for a total of ten temporary buffet halls on the first, second, and third floors to host them for free.
anwhile, Lin Feng and the distinguished guests he personally invited were naturally dining in the VIP banquet hall on the fifth floor of the Longfeng Martial Hall.
The banquet hall on the fifth floor was the most lavishly decorated one in the entire Longfeng Martial Hall. Although not very large, only about 200 square ters, every corner of the restaurant was ticulously arranged. Beautiful lights, soft warm light, grand round tables, and exquisite Chinese tableware ensured that those dining here would feel completely at ease, enjoying a sense of ho warmth and subtle comfort hidden in every detail.
This Chinese banquet hall existed in Ning Fuxun’s original plan. When Lin Feng first saw this sowhat abrupt banquet hall in the martial hall, he was stunned, wondering what a martial hall needed such a large banquet hall for... Now, looking at the guests in the banquet hall, Lin Feng understood that facing those top-tier mbers, even if the banquet hall was used only once to et a sudden request, its existence was justified...
Certainly, soone with a hidden identity attending the opening ceremony, like Cao Tiannan, shouldn’t have to squeeze into the crowded hotel banquet along with the ordinary guests!
Lin Zhonghua, Cao Tiannan, Bai Yuanshan, Xu Yishan, Tang Zhendong, Long Shaotian... these guests of a certain age sat together, accompanied by Lin Feng, while Yan Su, Long Xiaoyun, and the girls like Xu Jing and Xue Qingyi sat on the other side of the banquet hall, hosted by Zhu Xiuyue...
"Lin Feng, this kid... is really quite free-spirited! Nothing like you!" Cao Tiannan glanced at the stunning beauties at the opposite table, showed a peculiar smile, and couldn’t help but whisper in Lin Zhonghua’s ear.
"Cao Tiannan... are you envious or jealous?" Lin Zhonghua extended his chopsticks and snorted discontentedly, "You probably wish everyone were like , losing your girlfriend to you, that would make you very happy, wouldn’t it?!"
"Hey, hey... that’s not fair!" Cao Tiannan shook his head with a bitter smile, a bit helpless as he spoke to Lin Zhonghua, "Don’t be too sensitive, I didn’t an it that way..."
"You’d better not an it, or I won’t be polite to you!" Lin Zhonghua also glanced at the neighboring table and indeed found, as Cao Tiannan said, that the beauties at that table were strikingly beautiful, and they were all secretly glancing at Lin Feng.
Lin Zhonghua felt satisfied, thinking that Lin Feng really earned so respect for himself...
Among the two tables of people present, most were familiar with Lin Feng and knew of his exceptional abilities. Only Tang Zhendong was truly shocked at this mont!
"Ning Fuxun, Cao Tiannan, Xu Yishan, Bai Yuanshan, Long Shaotian, these are all distinguished figures in both worlds of Jiangzhou. How did they all connect with Lin Feng?" Tang Zhendong couldn’t understand how a young man like Lin Feng could have such significant connections, as for Lin Feng’s father, Lin Zhonghua, because he hadn’t revealed his identity, Tang Zhendong saw him as an ordinary middle-aged military man, nothing noteworthy.
Initially, Tang Zhendong thought Lin Feng must have relied on so connections to earn face from these big figures, but when he noticed that every guest present was not only polite to Lin Feng but also eagerly toasting and apologizing to him, like Bai Yuanshan and Long Shaotian, it was baffling!
It should be known that if Lin Feng only relied on special relationships to invite these big figures, logically, these people would only give face to the connections behind him, not treat Lin Feng with such esteem, like now, being courteous and even taking the initiative to toast and apologize.
Under these circumstances, there is only one possibility...
And that is these people respect Lin Feng for who he truly is!
Upon thinking this, Tang Zhendong’s expression slightly changed. He really couldn’t figure out what Lin Feng had that made these big figures bow their heads?
"Dad, let introduce you to Uncle Tang, Tang Zhendong, Tang Rou’s father..."
At this mont, Lin Feng suddenly raised his glass and gestured to introduce Tang Zhendong to Lin Zhonghua.
Initially a little bored, Lin Zhonghua’s eyes lit up upon hearing Lin Feng suddenly introduce Tang Zhendong. In his heart, Tang Rou was already considered the Lin’s prospective daughter-in-law, so Tang Rou’s father would be a future in-law, right?!
Thinking this way, Tang Zhendong, who originally didn’t stand out physically in Lin Zhonghua’s eyes, suddenly appeared much taller.
"Uncle Tang, this is my dad, Lin Zhonghua." Lin Feng showed no bias, also introducing Lin Zhonghua’s na to Tang Zhendong and then leaned towards Tang Zhendong’s ear to briefly introduce Lin Zhonghua’s position.
Hearing Lin Feng ntion that Lin Zhonghua was the commander of Jiangzhou City’s military sub-district, Tang Zhendong’s eyes brightened. He thought he finally found the reason!
So that explains it, no wonder these people hold Lin Feng in such respect. It’s because they are wary of Lin Feng’s father’s identity! Perhaps the last ti Ling Aiguo didn’t retaliate against Lin Feng was also due to Lin Feng’s identity issue! That’s why this kid is so impressive, because he has a powerful father...
No wonder Tang Zhendong would think this way. He’s a businessman and knows that power and interests are always inseparable. He himself has spent money to buy quite a few backings in the venue, so he thought most of the businessn present wanted to bribe Lin Zhonghua...
Upon thinking like this, most of Tang Zhendong’s doubts were resolved, and he regained his usual confidence.
"Lin Feng... haha, you kid really know how to keep a secret, such a big thing, and you kept it from for so long..." Knowing Lin Zhonghua’s identity, Tang Zhendong instinctively laughed awkwardly at Lin Feng, forcing a smile.
From the mont Tang Zhendong knew Lin Feng’s identity, he instinctively put on his professional mask towards him and beca polite.
Lin Zhonghua knew Lin Feng just introduced his identity to Tang Zhendong, and he understood that Tang Zhendong’s attitude might beco a bit distant because of this revelation. However, Lin Zhonghua was accustod to sincerity in dealing with people. Apart from the routine secrecy required, he didn’t like to hide his identity and, moreover, considered Tang Zhendong a "future in-law." If he didn’t clarify his identity now, it might be more hurtful if revealed later.
