The reason why this banquet is important is that it is not just a banquet. After the luncheon, there will be a small competition, which can be regarded as an assessment of the new generation of children.
The car went up along the mountain road with seven turns and eight turns. Ji Qinghuai leaned on the co-driver, his head was almost dizzy, and he couldn't help complaining: "I have to go through mountains and rivers to attend a banquet. The venue is chosen in such a remote place."
Qin Lang kept an eye on the road ahead, and said, "A big man is coming today."
"Huh?" Ji Qinghuai became interested when he heard the words, "Who wants to come?"
"do not know."
Ji Qinghuai blinked, looked away, and turned to look out the window.
The surrounding scenery flashed before his eyes one by one, Ji Qinghuai looked at it for a while, and suddenly thought, since the people present this time are all people with backgrounds, will Xie Yan come
Ji Qinghuai yawned, the journey was so boring that he was sleepy, and when Ji Qinghuai was drowsy, they finally arrived at their destination.
Qin Lang and Ji Qinghuai got out of the car one after another, and a security guard came up to welcome him. Qin Lang handed him the car keys and entered the venue with Ji Qinghuai.
The protagonist of today's coming-of-age ceremony is Cheng Keming. His father, Cheng Bairui, is old and has a son. He loves this son very much. Even if there are no other arrangements in the afternoon, this coming-of-age ceremony will never be neglected.
When Ji Qinghuai and Qin Lang entered, Ji Xianzhi had already arrived before them and was chatting with Cheng Bairui. Ji Qinghuai and Qin Lang walked over and greeted the elders one by one.
Cheng Bairui was in a very good mood today, with a smile all over his face. He looked at Ji Qinghuai and Qin Lang and nodded, and boasted: "The children have grown up, are sensible and promising, and you can rest easy."
Ji Xianzhi glanced at Cheng Bairui and couldn't agree with this statement.
"You've been too busy socializing and confused yourself? What kind words are you talking to me here?" Ji Xianzhi looked at the two sons who were talking and laughing with other guests, and shook the wine glass in his hand lightly, "Qin Lang has always been very polite. To save people trouble, let's forget about Ji Qinghuai, and there are still few troubles?"
"Come on, you're dissatisfied." Cheng Bairui smiled and clinked wine glasses with Ji Qinghuai, "I see that Qinghuai is pretty good, his temper doesn't follow you, but he is more likable than you."
Ji Xianzhi was unhappy when he heard this, raised his eyebrows, "I'm not attractive, what do you want me to do?"
Ji Xianzhi said and put down the wine glass in his hand, "I'm not waiting."
Cheng Bairui laughed, "Don't, you're leaving now, who will I turn to for the next Xiaobi?"
"Whoever wants to suppress whoever is willing to suppress."
"That can't be done." Cheng Bairui held Ji Xianzhi, and laughed and scolded: "You old guy, you are so old, you still can't play your temper at all times, and you are not afraid of being laughed at."
"It's still my fault." Ji Xianzhi replied, looked at Cheng Bairui and smiled, and then said seriously: "That guy is here, I have to go see him."
Cheng Bairui didn't dare to stop Ji Xianzhi when he heard the words, so he quickly released him and let Ji Xianzhi go.
On the other side of the venue, after dealing with the elders, Ji Qinghuai pretended to walk around the hall aimlessly. There were quite a few people invited today. After wandering around, Ji Qinghuai found that the patriarchs of the rich families who usually don't show up often also They are all here, but there is no Xie Yan in the crowd.
Qin Lang said that Xie Yan is his boss, so Xie Yan must also be an important figure in the Yaozu. It is impossible not to receive the invitation. Ji Qinghuai can think of the reason why Xie Yan is not here. Xie Yan doesn't like excitement, so he didn't come to participate in today's event. For banquets, stay quiet at home.
Ji Qinghuai was a little disappointed.
If you don't want to join in the fun, just watch me more, it's not like I won't let you watch.
Just as he was thinking, a voice came from Ji Qinghuai's side, "Who is Young Master Ji looking for?"
Ji Qinghuai could tell who the voice was, looked sideways, and saw Su Yuhe.
"Looking for someone I like."
The wine glass tilted, and the two goblets collided with each other, making a slight sound.
Ji Qinghuai smiled slightly, raised his head and drank the little red wine left in the glass in one gulp.
Su Yuhe also took a sip, "He's not here, you might as well..."
Before the next words could be said, there was a "bang" in the ears of the two of them, and it was the sound of the cup falling to the ground.
The people around followed the prestige, and Ji Qinghuai and Su Yuhe also cast their gazes there, and saw Qin Lang standing face to face with a strange young man in front of them, Qin Lang's clothes were stained with wine.
The young man looked at Qin Lang arrogantly, "I'm sorry."
There is no sincerity in the words.
Seeing this, Cheng Bairui came over and said to Qin Lang: "Maybe I bumped into it accidentally, Xiao Lang, don't worry, I'll let someone take you to change clothes."
This was an accident, and Qin Lang didn't intend to care about anything, and replied: "Okay."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Qin Lang turned around, he heard the young man muttering: "It's really unlucky to meet him."
Qin Lang paused.
Ji Qinghuai's face suddenly turned cold.
Qin Lang's original body was a black cat, and everyone present basically knew it, but among the demon clan, black cats have always been the most unpopular race, because for thousands of years, there has been a "black cat society" in the world. bring ominous", and about this point, many people didn't change it until Qin Lang took over the Eastern District.
It is precisely because he is a black cat that he was abandoned by his biological parents when he was a child. This is the pain point of Qin Lang's life.
Cheng Bairui didn't know well, when he saw Ji Qinghuai's face, he secretly thought badly, Ji's family members were protective, Ji Qinghuai especially cared about this younger brother, he didn't want to beat him up.
Today is his son's coming-of-age ceremony, and that one is also sitting upstairs, so he must not let anyone make a fuss in the venue,
Cheng Bairui hurriedly smoothed things over, "Master Weisheng is still young and ignorant, you two shouldn't take it seriously."
Hearing that the young man in front of him was from Weisheng's family, Qin Lang turned around. He was about to speak when suddenly someone poured a glass of red wine on Weishenglin's face.
Su Yuhe looked at his empty hands, feeling a little helpless.
Ji Qinghuai held an empty cup, smiled, and said insincerely: "Sorry, my hands are slippery."
Qin Lang looked at Ji Qinghuai, and Ji Qinghuai stretched out his hand to pull him behind him, and squeezed his wrist more firmly before letting go.
Qin Lang knew it was not appropriate to make trouble today, so he didn't speak again.
But Wei Shenglin, who was splashed with red wine all over his face, didn't know what to do. He stared at Ji Qinghuai and said angrily, "Are you looking for death?"
Cheng Bairui can't wait for someone to throw Wei Shenglin out.
Shut up now.
Ji Qinghuai's face was cold, the obedience and meekness when facing the elders before was a ghost, "Have you ever tried the feeling of being beaten and crying for your mother?"
Hearing this, Cheng Bairui hurriedly stood between Ji Qinghuai and Wei Shenglin, fearing that Ji Qinghuai would strike directly in the next second.
Cheng Bairui thinks that Ji Qinghuai is not bad, but he grew up watching Ji Qinghuai, he knows exactly what kind of temper Ji Qinghuai has, although he didn't inherit Ji Xianzhi's stubbornness and sternness, but just by getting angry, no one can stop him For one thing, there is no doubt that Ji Qinghuai has his own son.
But the visitors are guests, and it is not easy for Cheng Bairui to use his status as an elder to force them down. Ji Xianzhi and others are not here now, and those present are all juniors, and there is no one who can intimidate them. If Ji Qinghuai and Wei Shenglin really fight Well, it's a small shame, it would be too bad to alarm that person and blame him.
At this moment, Su Yuhe who was at the side said, "Uncle Cheng, the luncheon is ready, let's all sit down."
Seeing someone helping out, Cheng Bairui hurriedly followed Su Yuhe's words and said: "Yes, you must be hungry after traveling a long way, let's sit down."
Most people went to the banquet hall wisely, only a few stayed to watch the excitement, Su Yuhe turned sideways, and said to Ji Qinghuai and Qin Lang: "You two, please."
Qin Lang also persuaded: "Brother, let's go."
Ji Qinghuai turned around indifferently, raised his foot to leave, and just as he took a step, Wei Shenglin ran up to him and blocked their way.
"Aren't you very arrogant just now? If you have the guts, don't go, we will fight one-on-one."
Su Yuhe: "..."
Cheng Bairui hated iron but steel, and wanted to beat Wei Shenglin together with Ji Qinghuai.
Wei Shenglin looked smug, "Ji Qinghuai, how much do you think you are favored at home, your father would rather let a evil take over the Eastern District than cultivate you, you... ah..."
Ji Qinghuai punched Wei Shenglin to the ground, but Qin Lang didn't want to pull him back.
Su Yuhe stepped aside.
Cheng Bairui asked Su Yuhe for help with his eyes, and Su Yuhe spread his hands.
There is nothing I can do to help.
Cheng Bairui: "..."
The friend next to Wei Shenglin helped him up, Wei Shenglin touched his face, glanced at his fingers, pushed his friend away, and shouted angrily: "Ji Qinghuai! If I don't hit you today, you will kneel down and beg for mercy." ,so I… "
"Presumptuous!" A shout suddenly came from everyone's ears.
Qin Lang looked up, his pupils sank.
Weisheng Minghong.
And next to Weisheng Minghong, stood Ji Xianzhi.
Wei Shenglin walked over, the previous arrogant arrogance weakened in an instant, he covered his face and complained, "Father, Ji Qinghuai made the first move, I just..."
Weisheng Minghong glanced at Weishenglin, and Weishenglin immediately shut up.
Weisheng Minghong looked at Cheng Bairui, and apologized: "It's because I am not strict in teaching my son, and I have caused trouble for my brother."
Cheng Bairui heaved a sigh of relief and waved his hands, "The juniors are just joking around, it doesn't matter."
Weisheng Minghong looked at Ji Xianzhi again.
Ji Xianzhi smiled, "The juniors are fighting, winning or losing depends on their own ability, don't worry about it."
Weisheng Minghong smiled and said nothing more.
So far the conflict has subsided.
Later, someone came to announce the opening of the luncheon. Qin Lang changed his clothes and went to the banquet hall with everyone. Ji Qinghuai followed behind Ji Xian without any expression on his face.
When he was about to enter the hall, Qin Lang grabbed Ji Qinghuai, and the two of them stopped outside the door.
After everyone else went in, Qin Lang said, "Brother..."
"Brother what?" Qin Lang just said a word, Ji Qinghuai interrupted him, "I know that I am your brother, you still use these things to anger me."
Qin Lang was stunned.
What he wanted to say, Ji Qinghuai actually knew.
Ji Qinghuai sighed softly, "You don't have to care about what other people say. I just want to be comfortable and don't want to take on the burden. If you are willing to help me lift this burden, I won't even have time to thank you. It's not like someone can provoke you with a word or two. I beat him because he owed it."
After finishing speaking, Ji Qinghuai patted Qin Lang on the shoulder, and said: "Little cutie, most of the time you can be safe if you don't want to cause trouble. If someone bullies you, you don't have to bear it. If you can't quarrel with someone, I will help you quarrel." , If you can't fight, I will fight for you, no matter when, don't wrong yourself, you know?"
Qin Lang looked at Ji Qinghuai for a long time, then he nodded.
"Um."
