At eight in the morning, Xu Lin drove to his destination.
It was also a grand hotel.
Upon arriving at the destination, Xu Lin parked in the outside parking lot.
Then he walked up the steps not far off, and made his way to the hotel’s main entrance.
The entrance had tall revolving glass doors, with two doorn standing there.
Additionally, Xu Lin saw Ye Shengjun in a tailored suit.
Xu Lin also wore a suit today.
Having just talked over the phone in the car, Ye Shengjun was waiting at the door for him.
"Mr. Xu, long ti no see."
"Long ti no see!"
They greeted each other and shook hands.
Ye Shengjun said, "Let’s go inside first, it’s starting to get hot out here."
"Alright."
"By the way, there’s another person today. Last ti we had private dining with Mr. Jiang, do you still rember him?"
"I rember."
Of course, Xu Lin rembered. Jiang Mingyang was his convenient father-in-law.
Ye Shengjun chuckled, "Jiang happens to be in Jiangdu these days, and upon hearing he could et you, he wanted to co by as well."
"I hardly have such influence, right?"
"Mr. Xu, no need to undervalue yourself. In my eyes, you are a Dragon among n, an extraordinary person. Although I’ve lived half a lifeti, it’s the first ti I’ve encountered soone as impressive as you. It’s quite normal for Jiang Mingyang to want to et you."
Ye Shengjun insisted that Xu Lin was impressive, which was no small matter.
Xu Lin didn’t continue to be humble, "Alright, I’ll et him then."
"Mr. Xu, let’s head upstairs first."
"Alright."
The launch ceremony of "Dajing Dynasty" was held on the fifth floor, in a very large hall.
Upon entering, Xu Lin saw many veteran perforrs and powerful actors. As for the younger actors, Xu Lin didn’t recognize them.
Those who saw Xu Lin ca up proactively to shake hands with him.
This circle values social norms, and there’s a buzz that this extraordinary Mr. Xu is a man of great influence, and when he entered with a notable figure like Ye Shengjun, the rumors seed affird.
People were enthusiastic, worried that lacking enthusiasm might offend him, knowing that big figures enjoy flattering, and one wrong move might displease them.
Although people might overthink it.
After shaking hands with many, Xu Lin felt a bit drained.
"Mr. Xu is like the moon amid stars."
Ye Shengjun sighed beside him.
Xu Lin said, "The banquet is a bit tiring."
"Haha..." The other chuckled.
Ten minutes or so passed, and Jiang Mingyang arrived.
But Xu Lin’s convenient father-in-law didn’t co alone; he brought his other daughter, Jiang Lin, Rong Xiyi’s sister, wearing a formal, elegant gown.
"Mr. Xu, it’s been a while. Last ti we t!"
Jiang Mingyang extended his hand, and Xu Lin naturally extended his too, and they shook hands.
"Mr. Jiang seems spirited today!" Xu Lin smiled.
"Haha, not too bad."
Then, Jiang Mingyang introduced his daughter to Xu Lin, "This is my daughter, Jiang Lin, Lin with the Wang character."
"Hello Mr. Xu!"
Jiang Lin greeted proactively, with poise and confidence.
Xu Lin smiled, "Hello."
Judging by this gesture, if Xu Lin guessed correctly, Jiang Mingyang intended to introduce his daughter to him.
However, while Jiang Lin was indeed pretty, and considered a graceful beauty by ordinary standards, she fell short in Xu Lin’s eyes.
Xu Lin remained unperturbed.
If a girl is pretty and her life experiences clean, suitors would break down the door.
The sa applies to n; if a man has decent features and a good career, he would attract many suitors, leveraging even higher standards. But for soone like Xu Lin, being introduced to soone’s daughter is no longer significant, just commonplace.
Jiang Mingyang, experienced and astute, realized from Xu Lin’s reaction that the latter wasn’t impressed by his daughter.
Jiang Mingyang felt nothing about it; soone of Xu Lin’s caliber wouldn’t easily be matched by the average girl.
It implies that ordinary girls can’t handle such n.
Considering his daughter, Jiang Mingyang admitted, setting aside familial ties, she lacked noteworthy traits.
Pretty looks?
That’s not much at all.
Beauty, relative to the lower social strata, is a scarce resource, viewed as superior reproductive value to the common, yet as one ascends, intelligence, capability might outweigh re appearance in becoming a distinguished figure’s spouse.
In Jiang Mingyang’s eyes, Xu Lin was remarkable, surpassing his own children, evidently outstanding.
He once t a man slightly older, who appeared extraordinary and has beco a prominent figure at the Capital City’s core, a high official out of his league.
Xu Lin left a deeper impression on Jiang Mingyang than even that distinguished man.
Such individuals are called Dragons among n.
"I have arranged a gathering at Tianxiang Kingdom Color. Mr. Xu, Mr. Ye, are you interested in coming along this afternoon for a good ti?"
Jiang Mingyang smiled.
Ye Shengjun replied, "I’m fine with it; what about you, Mr. Xu?"
"I’m fine too," Xu Lin said calmly.
The launch ceremony soon began.
Similar to the previous procedures.
Jiang Mingyang was an outsider, mainly here to et Xu Lin this ti.
