God of War Wolf Son-in-law

009 You! Get out!

The so-called banquet was actually more of a party!

As the representative of Xin Hai Bank, Zou Qianqian's social network was evidently formidable. The moment she stepped into the banquet hall, she became the center of attention. Many people came up to greet her, and she politely smiled and returned the greetings.

Meanwhile, most of these people cast curious glances at Ye Xin, their faces showing a strange expression.

The banquet hall wasn't very crowded, with only about thirty or forty people present. However, these thirty or forty people almost represented the entire top echelon of Jiangcheng's second-generation wealthy.

The banquet hall was filled with a dazzling array of top-notch food.

Glancing around, Ye Xin cleared his throat and said, "I hope it's okay if I grab some food?"

Zou Qianqian first paused, then smiled faintly and said, "Feel free."

"Very well," Ye Xin nodded. He took a plate, selected some food, and walked with Zou Qianqian to a seat, where he sat down and began to eat.

They seemed somewhat out of place amidst the ambiance of the banquet hall. Most of the people in the hall were mingling in groups of two or three, holding glasses of red wine and chatting, while Ye Xin was alone on their side, eating.

Zou Qianqian didn't feel embarrassed either. She grabbed a drink and sat beside Ye Xin.

At that moment, Han Shuo entered the banquet hall with Lin Qingxue and Chen Yi. Spotting Ye Xin sitting and eating from a distance, Chen Yi sneered, "Truly a country bumpkin. This kind of gathering is for people to socialize, explore potential collaborations, and expand their networks. Yet he's here eating."

"He's completely uncultured," Lin Qingxue said with disdain. "Probably his first time at the Marriott Hotel, never had the food here in his life, wants to give it a try!"

"Hmph, I'll show him what it means to lose face later," Chen Yi said, with a cold laugh. He walked to the side, picked up a glass of wine, and headed straight for Ye Xin and Zou Qianqian.

Arriving in front of Ye Xin, he looked at Ye Xin, who was eating with his head down, with a disdainful smile on his lips. Then he spoke loudly, "Manager Zou, is this guy next to you your boyfriend?"

Zou Qianqian had already mentioned it at the door, but now he brought it up again, and with such a loud voice, obviously intending to attract everyone's attention.

Sure enough, as his voice fell, many eyes in the banquet hall turned their gaze over.

Ye Xin raised his head calmly and glanced at Chen Yi.

Zou Qianqian smiled and said, "Yes, I'll introduce him to everyone. The person next to me is my boyfriend, Ye Xin."

A smirk flashed across Chen Yi's face as he said, "Ah, unexpectedly, the goddess in many people's hearts, the beautiful Ms. Zou from Xin Hai Bank, has actually been won over by this brother. I guess many brothers will be heartbroken. But looking at this brother's attire, he seems a bit out of place at this banquet."

Zou Qianqian frowned slightly. She looked at Ye Xin and found that his expression was quite calm.

In fact, Zou Qianqian was very curious about Ye Xin!

The first time she saw Ye Xin, he looked no different from a beggar. But it was such a person who actually owned a diamond card from Xin Hai Bank! That wasn't something you could have just by being rich.

Looking at Ye Xin's calm face and recalling his previous attire and actions, she speculated that Ye Xin was probably low-key and didn't like to draw attention to himself. She smiled slightly and said, "He's just an ordinary person."

Chen Yi laughed and said, "Too ordinary indeed. By the way, Manager Zou, are you trying to make us, your pursuers, give up by hiring someone online to pretend to be your boyfriend? This is quite an event presided over by Mr. Jiang, not something just anyone can casually attend!"

"Hey, speaking of you, kid," seeing Ye Xin still not saying anything, Chen Yi looked at Ye Xin and said, "From what I know, you used to work as a bricklayer on a construction site. Is hiring yourself out online your side job? How much can someone like you make by pretending to be someone else's boyfriend for a day?"

"Pfft!" At that moment, laughter broke out in the banquet hall.

Chen Yi looked at Ye Xin with a smirk, then said cheerfully, "Don't sulk, brother, say something."

Ye Xin picked up the plate from the table and stood up. Ignoring Chen Yi, he looked at Zou Qianqian and said, "Darling, it seems like there's a dog barking here. Can't even eat peacefully. Let's find another place, shall we?"

As his voice fell, the whole room fell silent.

And Chen Yi's face suddenly turned dark.

His gaze turned icy as he looked at Ye Xin and said, "You f*****g insulting me, bastard! A dumbass bricklayer like you dares to act tough with me."

"Bang!"

Just then, the door of the banquet hall was pushed open, and a girl helped an elderly man in his sixties walk into the banquet hall.

The moment they appeared, everyone's gaze turned towards them.

"Beautiful!" Many girls exclaimed in admiration.

Yes, the girl at the door was very beautiful!

She was nearly 1.7 meters tall, had a perfect figure, and an angelic face. The moment she appeared at the venue, she instantly became the center of attention!

Ye Xin couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

This girl, in terms of appearance and temperament, is almost on par with Zhe Qiu Yu.

"That man is Jiangcheng's richest man, Jiang Zhennan, and the woman is his daughter, Jiang Wanwan," Zou Qianqian explained to Ye Xin beside her.

"Actually him?" Ye Xin was secretly amazed. He actually knew Jiang Zhennan.

Zou Qianqian looked at Ye Xin in surprise and asked, "You know him?"

"I have some impression," Ye Xin smiled and said, "but we're not very familiar."

"It's quite lively here. Did I hear some unpleasantness at the door of the banquet hall just now?" Jiang Zhennan's mouth revealed a slightly kind smile. His gaze slowly swept over the young people present, but when his eyes fell on Ye Xin for a moment, his expression suddenly changed.

His gaze quickly returned to Ye Xin, and then his whole body trembled slightly.

Then, much to everyone's astonishment, he quickly walked towards Ye Xin.

He walked up to Ye Xin and knelt down in front of him, much to everyone's shock.

"Plop!"

The richest man in Jiangcheng, the influential figure who called the shots in Jiangcheng, knelt down in front of Ye Xin!

"It's you... We had a chance encounter before. After you saved me, you disappeared. I wanted to repay you but never had the chance. I didn't expect you to appear at the banquet I hosted. Three years ago, I heard that you were in Jiangcheng..." Jiang Zhennan's voice trembled.

But before he could finish speaking, Ye Xin interrupted him and said, "You've mistaken me for someone else."

The Night Watcher was a secret organization in the summer, unknown to ordinary people.

But when you reached a certain position, you would hear about it, and Jiang Zhennan and Ye Xin had once had a chance encounter.

Ye Xin had rescued him from the Blood Lotus. At that time, he had heard the names "Blood Lotus" and "Night Watcher." Later, he signed a confidentiality agreement and was not allowed to mention these things to anyone.

Ye Xin was worried that he would get too excited and accidentally reveal these things.

Jiang Zhennan, as Jiangcheng's richest man, was obviously very shrewd in observing people's words and expressions. He knew that Ye Xin didn't want to reveal anything.

He trembled slightly, wiped the tears from his face, and then stood up from the ground, saying, "Oh, I'm getting old, my eyesight is failing me. I actually mistook you for someone else."

Jiang Wanwan quickly helped him up. A hint of curiosity flickered in her beautiful eyes as she glanced at Ye Xin.

At this moment, Chen Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just now, when Jiang Zhennan knelt down, he was almost scared out of his wits.

Someone who could make Jiangcheng's richest man kneel down was definitely not someone he could afford to provoke.

Now that Jiang Zhennan said he had mistaken the person, he spoke up, "Exactly, Mr. Jiang, this guy is probably a boyfriend hired by Manager Zou, just a bricklayer at a construction site, came here to freeload. You must have mistaken the person. He's just trash!"

Jiang Zhennan wiped away his tears and then turned around, pointing at Chen Yi and then at the door, saying in an unquestionable tone, "You... Get out!"

"Ah!" Chen Yi was stunned.

"I heard you mumbling outside just now. Since this friend was brought by Manager Zou, he's a guest. I'm hosting this banquet for you young people to mingle, not for you to come here and cause trouble and humiliate people. So, get out!" Jiang Zhennan's tone was icy.

"This... this..." Chen Yi's face turned red all the way to his neck!

To be thrown out in front of everyone at such a gathering was truly... too embarrassing.

"I told you to leave, don't you understand?" Jiang Zhennan's tone became even colder.
