Ling Changhong was shocked! Very shocked! Incredibly shocked!!!

Their group had allocated a whopping five million for a set of fashion design blueprints, using all their heart power to establish various connections, and it was only then that they had obtained a blueprint from Cui Dafu.

That wasn't all; when Cui Dafu came to inspect their group, they could only serve him with the utmost care as if they were attending to a grandfather or ancestor, dreading the slightest dissatisfaction that might ruin this rare opportunity!

And now, the person they valued so much was pleasingly facing a guy who looked like a common laborer!

Moreover, this was someone whom he himself had previously despised and disregarded!

Especially when he thought about how he had wanted the other party to come work in his company's logistics department, Ling Changhong felt his cheeks burn with painful embarrassment.

It was a slap in the face, and one he had to accept!

But the shock was just beginning!

When he heard one set of footsteps after another, he turned to look and saw figures that took his breath away entering the hall!

"That's Zhao... young master Zhao Tian from the Zhao Family!"

"Fang Qingxue, the appointed heir of the Fang Family!"

"Mayor Zhao Yuankui is here too!"

"Look! Who are those twins behind? It seems... it seems like the Red Rose from the Rose Bar and the police bureau's criminal investigation captain, Bai Furong!"

"And there! Who are those two familiar-looking elders?"

"Damn! That's the old master of the Zhao Family and the helmsman of the Fang Family, Fang Defu!!!"

...

At this moment, everyone inside the hall was flabbergasted. Each of these figures entering one by one commanded significant influence in Jiangnan City!

Especially Old Zhao and Fang Defu—who were figures at the elder level capable of making the whole Jiangnan tremble with a single stomp of their foot!

And now, they had come together, an utterly unimaginable scenario under normal circumstances!

The banquet hall they were in was the worst one in Blue Club, and even so, none of them would otherwise be qualified to enter such a place. If it weren't for Ling Changhong's father having a membership card, their school reunion could not have been held here.

Standing there, amongst the least significant patrons of Blue Club, they were suddenly witnessing one important figure after another entering their hall, which made them overwhelmingly excited!

Any one of these dignitaries, if they could establish a connection, would surely propel them to new heights!

"What... what should we do? Should we go up and offer a toast? These are all important figures, people we usually never see!"

"I want to as well; if I could establish a connection now, my company would surely move up a notch immediately!"

"Wait a bit! We don't know the situation yet, and rashly approaching them, if it caused displeasure, that would be bad!"

...

These people were all eager to act, with some already picking up fine red wine and glasses, ready to rush up and offer a toast at any moment.

It wasn't just them, Ling Changhong and Yan Li felt the same way. Although their Changhong Group was considered a large company in the eyes of ordinary people, compared to the figures now present, they were nothing more than children playing house, not worth mentioning!

They had not even the qualification to catch these people's extra glance!

Ling Changhong's face flushed with excitement. This hall was booked using his father's membership card, and among everyone present, he had the highest status. In his view, these important figures were surely coming for him.

With that in mind, Ling Changhong quickly straightened his clothes and hurried forward to greet them.

However, to everyone's surprise, something happened!

These big figures, as if they hadn't seen Ling Changhong, walked straight past him and then all headed towards a corner of the room.

"Huh? Went to see Mr. Cui? Could it be that they came for Mr. Cui?"

"That's not right! Mr. Cui is an overseas Chinese, he shouldn't have any connections with these important figures!"

"If it's not Changhong, then it must be Mr. Cui! Who else could make all these prominent people come together?"

...

At this moment, everyone in the hall was full of curiosity, their eyes fixed on these important figures. But when they heard a phrase, everyone was instantly stupefied.

"Ye Feng, you're here! Why didn't you tell me!"

Fang Qingxue's eyes were fixed on Ye Feng, her excited face flushed with happiness. If not for the Zhao Family's butler, Uncle Fu, spotting him, she wouldn't have known that Ye Feng had also come to the Blue Club.

"Qingxue, is your birthday party being held here?" Ye Feng was equally surprised to run into them at this moment.

"This place belongs to the Fang Family, so naturally, we would hold Qingxue's birthday party here!"

Before Fang Qingxue could say anything, Elder Fang Defu from the Fang Family behind her said with a smile:

"Young fellow, I haven't had the chance to thank you yet, helping this old man recover his life!"

The 'old man' Elder Fang Defu referred to was naturally Elder Zhao, whose body was still somewhat weak at this moment, but his spirit was strong; his smile as bright as a blooming chrysanthemum, full of gratitude as he looked at Ye Feng:

"Ye Feng! Thank you for pulling this old bag of bones back from Yama Palace! I hope you don't take to heart what happened at the hospital last time!"

What Elder Zhao was referring to was, of course, the time when Ye Feng first went to treat him and ended up being questioned instead.

Elder Fang Defu and Elder Zhao's extremely cordial attitudes astonished the rest of the crowd in the hall—they were at a loss!

What were they seeing? These big shots had actually come looking for Ye Feng! Not only that, each of them was respectful towards him, their demeanor kind, almost like they were dealing with their own juniors. If this got out, it would probably shake the entire Jiangnan City!

"Impossible! This can't be happening!!!"

Yan Li's face was filled with disbelief, her eyes fixed intently on Ye Feng.

She couldn't understand how a guy who looked like a common worker could know so many important people! Moreover, they were all treating him with great respect and kindliness, practically as if they were interacting with a junior of their own.

The most infuriating part was that this guy was Xu Ningxue's boyfriend!

Yan Li had thought she could completely overshadow Xu Ningxue, but now, because of Ye Feng, the situation had turned on its head!

Considering the current situation, just a word from Ye Feng would suffice, and not only her but even the Changhong Group could crumble instantly!

The shock wasn't limited to Yan Li alone; others in the crowd were just as astounded, like Wei Hai, Han Miaomiao's boyfriend!

The last time he met Ye Feng, he also thought the guy was just a country bumpkin, even harboring inappropriate thoughts towards Xu Ningxue and trying to bribe Ye Feng to help him with his plans.

And now, Wei Hai wished he could slap himself twice!

If Ye Feng still held a grudge over what happened last time, then both his company and he himself might be finished!

Thinking this, the color drained from Wei Hai's face in an instant.

However, the shocking events were far from over. Suddenly, Red Rose, dressed in fiery red, bounced over to Ye Feng, wrapped one arm around his, and laughingly said:

"Brother-in-law, you're being naughty! Sneaking out for a date behind Bai Furong's back!"

...

Brother-in-law?

Upon hearing this term, everyone felt a wave of dizziness. Red Rose was the boss of the Rose Bar in Shallow Bay. How did Ye Feng become her brother-in-law too!!!
