Hidden Dragon City.
At this time, in a hotel with a very festive decoration.
Fang Yubai and Meng Lingbing, dressed in their best, were standing in the hall, welcoming the guests who came to the banquet.
The screen behind the two of them was replaced by a huge wedding photo.
In addition, there are countless various flowers and arches decorated at the entrance of the hotel.
You can vaguely see words hanging in many places: Congratulations to the groom Fang Yubai and the bride Meng Lingbing on their wedding.
Obviously, this was the wedding banquet of Fang Yubai and Meng Lingbing.
In addition to the two of them, the elders of the Fang family also showed up from time to time to welcome guests.
At this time, Fang Yubai's father and Fang Lingjue were met by a middle-aged man in his fifties and a young man in his early thirties.
"I am flattered that Minister Xu has come to visit me. I am flattered..."
Mr. Fang's face was all smiles.
The middle-aged man called Minister Xu also talked to Fang's father with a smile on his face and gave gifts to the newlyweds.
The young man in his thirties greeted Fang Lingjue, "Master."
Fang Ling nodded.
The young man was none other than one of his disciples, Xu Huan.
Xu Huan greeted Fang Lingjue and then came to Fang Yubai, smiling and said, "Congratulations. By the way, do you need any help?"
"No, just go in and sit down first. I'll come back to have a couple of drinks with you later."
Fang Yubai said this and asked someone to lead the young man in.
"That's fine."
The young man responded, said something to Fang Lingjue, and went up to the second floor hall.
A group of three men who also came to the wedding banquet looked at the middle-aged man who was greeted by Fang's father and whispered: "That man... seems to be Minister Xu from the Procuratorate?"
"What Minister Xu? I'm afraid he will be called Director Xu soon. His rank was raised half a year ago. He is now a Level 4 senior official in Taibai. He is a high-ranking minister. When Deputy Director Luo retires next year, he will be able to take his place."
"This important person is here? When did the Fang family have such a relationship?"
"It should be related to Ling Jue, but I don't know what it is specifically."
Several people were chatting with each other, looking at Mr. Fang with some envy as he chatted and laughed with Minister Xu.
What is this called!
This is called connections.
At this time, someone seemed to say something in Fang Lingjue's ear, and he hurried to the door of the hotel.
Soon, a car that was not luxurious but had a license plate that everyone with a little fame in Canglong City would recognize stopped at the entrance of the hotel.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Qingyue, the president of the association who was second only to the three giants of Canglong and was in charge of all matters big and small in the Canglong martial arts world, got out of the car.
His arrival once again caused quite a stir among the crowd.
If Minister Xu has to wait another year before taking over the position of deputy director of the Procuratorate, and no one knows whether there will be any changes during this year, then Jiang Qingyue is the real power figure.
One word can determine the future of a martial arts school or a martial artist.
A single thought can create a millionaire or even a billionaire.
"President Jiang, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to attend my nephew's wedding."
Fang Lingjue said with a smile.
"Haha, Director Fang has sent me an invitation. I can't refuse this favor."
Jiang Qingyue also had a smile on her face.
At the same time, he stepped forward and gave his blessings to the two newlyweds.
Just as Jiang Qingyue arrived, another heavyweight figure came.
It was Tian Feiyu who had attended the Five Elements Sect banquet before.
The two of them walked together and went up to the second floor accompanied by Fang Lingjue.
As soon as they entered the banquet hall, many guests who had arrived early stood up and came forward to greet them one by one.
Jiang Qingyue and Tian Feiyang also responded one by one.
When some members of the Meng family saw this scene, they couldn't help but feel secretly frightened.
Although the Meng family is relatively small in Canglong City, each of the several branches has assets worth tens of millions. Adding together, it is a family business with assets of tens of millions or even nearly 100 million.
But with assets worth tens of millions, he can only be considered a rich kid at best, and is far from being the so-called powerful and wealthy.
Although there were people in their family who were involved in politics, the highest position they held was only the seventh level of Taibai public office, and he was the director of the Earthquake Office of Qingshui Yamen.
Compared with the previous Minister Xu, the current Chairman Jiang, and Mayor Tian, this status is far inferior to that of the previous Minister Xu, and the current Chairman Jiang and Mayor Tian.
"Xiao Bing is marrying into a good family."
"This Fang family seems to be inconspicuous in Canglong City, but I didn't expect that they have such a wide network of connections."
"I'm afraid the Third Brother's branch is about to rise. You should remember to visit Third Uncle's house more often in the future."
The Meng family members were whispering to each other.
Some people even instructed their younger generations to keep the two sides close.
Especially some people who are about the same age as Meng Lingbing, their eyes are full of envy after hearing what their elders said.
Just when most of the guests in the banquet hall had arrived, Shanhu, who was helping to usher in the guests, suddenly ran to Fang Lingjue, who was sitting next to Jiang Qingyue, and whispered, "Master... Li Pin... Li Wusheng is here."
"Li Yin? Shouldn't he go to Longmen Pavilion for further studies?"
Fang Lingjue was stunned.
Then he realized something and stood up suddenly: "Quick, take me downstairs to greet her."
Jiang Qingyue and Tian Feiyu, who were standing by, heard this and immediately asked, "Li Pin? Is it Lord Li who has arrived?"
"Yes, it's him."
Fang Lingjue nodded: "I thought he had already gone to Longmen Pavilion for further studies. Although I sent him an invitation, I guess he wouldn't come... I didn't expect..."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go together. Let's go together."
Jiang Qingyue and Tian Feiyu said at the same time.
Fang Lingjue felt something was wrong when looking at the two guests, but Jiang Qingyue was already impatient and started walking, so he had no choice but to follow them.
This scene caused a lot of discussion among the crowd.
Everyone was asking, "Who's here? Even Chairman Jiang and Mayor HT actually stood up and went downstairs to greet them? Is it Mayor Wang? Or Speaker Zhang?"
“I don’t know, but he’s definitely a big shot.”
"I just heard that it seems to be Li Pin, Li Wusheng..."
"Li Wusheng!? You don't mean to tell me that it's the Li Wusheng, the Li Pin who won first place in the world's number one martial arts competition two months ago?"
"How is it possible? What kind of person is Li Wusheng? He was canonized as a powerful viscount by His Majesty and has his own fiefdom. Mayor Wang and Chairman Zhang are far inferior to him! How can the Fang family invite such a big person?"
"I heard a rumor that Li Wusheng and Fang Yubai were classmates when they were young. I don't know if it's true or not, but if this rumor is true, then Li Wusheng coming to attend Xiaobai's wedding... is entirely possible!"
"If it's really Li Wusheng... then it's awesome! If I could take a picture and post it, my Moments would go viral!"
"Why post on Moments? Post a cool video! Li Wusheng has never made a public appearance since the World's No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament. This is his first time! The video is well shot. He will gain hundreds of thousands of fans in a matter of minutes!"
The discussion in the field suddenly became noisy when the name "Li Pin" was mentioned.
Everyone had anticipation and excitement in their expressions, and their eyes were constantly looking towards the door.
…
At the hotel entrance.
Li Pin was talking to Fang Yubai.
At this moment, Fang Yubai was both surprised and happy: "I thought you had already gone to Longmen Pavilion... I was afraid of disturbing your practice..."
"We've been roommates for three years, so why wouldn't I come when you get married?"
Li Yin said with a smile.
The reason why he didn't inform Fang Yubai in advance...
I just listened to Xiang Tianxing's words.
Whereabouts kept confidential.
Beside Fang Yubai, Meng Lingbing looked at Li Pin with excitement.
The current Li Yin is completely different from the one before the World No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament.
Not to mention his lofty status, his martial saint-level cultivation alone has already far surpassed their class.
She opened her mouth and tried to say something several times, but the words just wouldn't come out.
It was Li Yin who took the initiative to ask: "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Seeing him take the initiative to speak, Meng Lingbing was a little embarrassed to speak: "Or... you can be our witness."
"Best Witness?"
Li Yin was startled, then waved his hand: "The witness is usually a respected elder. We are of the same generation, so it is not appropriate."
Meng Lingbing heard this and said quickly: "I'm sorry, it's me who was careless..."
"I'm just not suitable to be a witness, but..."
Li Yin looked at Fang Yubai and said, "If you are still short of a best man, I can do it part-time."
Fang Yubai's eyes suddenly widened.
Let Li Pin...
Best man when he got married!
He could hardly imagine the impact that would occur if this news got out.
If it were posted on the Internet, it would definitely set off a storm in the entire Taibai Internet community.
"Are you serious?"
"certainly."
Li Yin nodded: "If you need it."
"Li Wusheng."
At this time, there was a shout from the stairs.
Soon after, Fang Lingjue, Jiang Qingyue, Tian Feiyu and a large group of people rushed over.
"If I had known you would come, I should have gone to Jiangzhou to pick you up in advance."
Fang Lingjue said with a smile.
"No need to be so formal."
Li Yin said.
"The whole of Canglong City warmly welcomes Li Wusheng."
"Hello, Li... Li Wusheng. I'm Xiaotian. I wonder if you still remember me."
Jiang Qingyue and Tian Feiyu hurried forward to greet them and extended their hands.
Li Yin nodded to the two of them and shook hands with them.
The two sides exchanged greetings for a moment, and Father Fang also hurriedly said: "Li Wusheng, please go upstairs and take a seat..."
Then he said to Fang Yubai who was still standing at the reception desk: "Okay, go up with Li Wusheng."
He will arrange for someone to entertain the remaining guests.
Fang Yubai hesitated for a moment, but still took Meng Lingbing with him and went upstairs with Li Pin.
"Go and do your thing. You are the protagonists today."
Li Yin stopped Fang Yubai who was following him and said, "If you really want to accompany us, we can chat after the wedding."
"Okay then."
Fang Yubai nodded: "Uncle, I'll leave Li Wusheng in your care."
"rest assured."
Fang Lingjue nodded.
At that moment, he, Jiang Qingyue, Tian Feiyu, and Fang's father led Li Pin to the banquet hall.
