Pfft~~Luo Chao suddenly found this situation becoming interesting. The dramatic developnt almost made him spit out the sip of red wine he had just drunk, and he quickly dabbed it with a napkin, holding back laughter, murmuring to himself.
Damn, what's this? A group of romantic rivals coming to demonstrate?
He was not wrong at all. Other than Hua Liunian, who was his apprentice, everyone including Cai Yuwen could now be considered his romantic rival, because he was currently playing the role of Qin Feifei's boyfriend. The second common point was that they were all heirs of wealthy or powerful families. Moreover, amusingly, all these people had once been severely taught a lesson for courting Tang Yan, suffering no small humiliation.
At this mont, Luo Chao suddenly felt sanctified. Because whether the romantic rivals could gather for a mahjong ga would depend on his performance today.
Our Special Soldier King, Dragon Team Captain, and possibly the last Cultivator on Earth, Luo Chao said... the pressure is huge.
Sitting comfortably in the corner, watching those guys from afar, he found it amusing. His eyes darted over to see Tang Yan running over anxiously, and he smiled, asking, "Honey, what's wrong? Watch your dress."
Tang Yan was also wearing a long evening gown today.
"Luo Chao~~ those few have also co, what should we do! They know about our relationship." Tang Yan sat nervously beside Luo Chao, her eyes fixed tightly on that side, speaking nervously.
"No worries!" Luo Chao comfortingly patted her small hand, with an irrepressible smile on his face, "Don't you find this situation incredibly interesting? Let's wait a while and seize the opportunity, and I'll step up."
"But... won't Xu Hua and Li Qiang expose us?" Tang Yan was still a bit worried. What was supposed to be a good event had beco a bit complicated with the arrival of these people.
If one of them leaked this, not only would it be disgraceful for Luo Chao and Tang Yan, but Qin Feifei would also be criticized, mistaken as a howrecker.
"It's alright, they wouldn't dare to speak recklessly." Luo Chao smiled and said.
While they were talking, Cai Yuwen had finished the introductions over there, and the group was exchanging pleasantries. Being guests, Qin Feifei invited them to sit at a table to chat.
"I say, sister-in-law, the place you've chosen is quite shabby! If I had known about this beforehand, I would have personally helped organize it properly, surely upgrading its standing."
The first to speak was Hu Pei, the wealthy second-generation. This guy couldn't change his arrogant nature wherever he went, only now slightly restrained, yet still had a slight air of flaunting wealth.
Upon hearing this, Cai Yuwen's face showed a slight smile, apparently quite satisfied with Hu Pei's address, and said with a smile, "I also wanted to make it grand for Feifei, but alas!" He shook his head, "Feifei is sowhat reserved, not wanting to intervene."
Hearing their echoing, insinuating words, Qin Feifei did not get angry, instead said with composure, "No need to trouble you, as the purpose was rely to invite so close friends, no need for extravagance."
"That's not the way to put it, Young Master Cai is one of the top notches in the Southwest, and coming to Liuhai, we must show so hospitality. It's sister-in-law's birthday, making it grand is only appropriate." Li Qiang interjected, subtly flattering Cai Yuwen, clearly looking to forge a good relationship.
"Li Qiang is right. Sister-in-law, it's really not right how you're handling this." Xu Hua chid in.
Cai Yuwen's smile grew wider, quite pleased with their performance. He invited these people mainly to showcase his social prowess to Qin Feifei and to have them support his agenda for the evening. Now it seed they were indeed very compliant.
The only one who didn't sit well with him was the gentleman from Yanjing, Master Hua, whom he didn't know well, only eting him incidentally while discussing the matter with Hu Pei. Upon hearing Hu Pei introduce him as having a considerable background, he decided to cultivate this acquaintance and invited him along.
However, since arriving, this person had been silent, frowning as if in deep thought, showing no intention of helping, which made the prideful Cai Yuwen feel slighted, looking at him with a slight hint of displeasure.
"Hehe, actually, I'm quite satisfied with how things are." Qin Feifei spoke, facing the four without losing ground, saying with dignity, "Also, I hope you don't associate so groundless titles with ."
"Oh, don't say groundless." Hu Pei pretended to be annoyed, asserting, "Miss Qin and Young Master Cai, childhood sweethearts, a perfect pair, marriage... that's just a matter of ti." He finished, bursting into laughter.
Li Qiang and Xu Hua also echoed in agreent with a smile.
These days, Hua Liunian, who had been pondering over the secrets taught by his master, was awakened by their laughter. Annoyed, he said, "Hey, what are you doing? Whether they get married is their business. What's it to you, ddling where you shouldn't, happy like you're getting married yourselves, mindless idiots."
Finally grasping the essence of pretending and face-slapping, he was interrupted by these people, naturally making Hua Liunian angry, and he applied Luo Chao's Ultimate Skill on them, fiercely ridiculing them.
Then, he smiled and nodded to the grateful Qin Feifei.
Facing Hua Liunian's verbal barrage, Hu Pei and the others felt extrely aggrieved being called mindless idiots. Such was their internal monologue, aren't we supposed to be on the sa team? Why does it sound like you're siding with her? Despite being frustrated, they dared not retaliate, as offending the Hua Family was beyond their capacity.
The most frustrated, of course, was Cai Yuwen, who had invited these people. His initial plan was good, but unexpectedly, a traitor arose among the ranks, truly infuriating.
Given the situation, he declined to argue with Hua Liunian, having many reservations. Forcing himself to remain calm, he said, "Feifei, you know that this ti I ca all the way from City H, hoping that you would accept my proposal. Moreover, I've already obtained the consent of your parents."
"Wha... what did you say?" Qin Feifei stared wide-eyed in disbelief, caught off guard by the sudden news.
How did things turn out this way? Her parents had always supported her in having a free marriage, how did they suddenly change their minds? She was in a daze, blurting out, "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible..."
