At the banquet scene, Chen Qingming quickly regretted his decision.

Why stay in the lobby? In such a mixed place, their group was like rare protected animals, and soon attracted onlookers.

Chen Ruoshi's birthday banquet venue is divided into two parts: inside and outside. The inner floor is located in the inner hall. The core members of the Shen family, such as the two deputy city lords, Chen Ruoshi's biological sons, and other powerful Shencheng bosses are all in the inner hall. In addition, the envoys of the Holy Sect and representatives of several important families and sects are also in the inner hall.

The invitation quota that was previously competed for by the Outer Court was the inner hall quota. Only by entering the inner hall can you truly have the opportunity to face the city lord Chen Ruoshi.

There were hundreds of banquets outside, and the value of the food was immediately worse. The level of wine and food was second. The key was that Chen Ruoshi himself would not come in person to entertain guests in the lobby outside. He would only send representatives or drive his clones to say a few polite words and thank everyone for their faces to the banquet. But in fact, those who are familiar with Chen Ruoshi know that for him, he actually doesn't care whether the guests in the lobby would like to appreciate the faces or not.

Most of the guests in the lobby were just marginal figures who had a relationship with the Shen family, or representatives of lighter family sects. Although Chen Ruoshi didn't care about them, they cared about Chen Ruoshi very much. As long as he could leave a little impression on him, it might mean endless benefits.

Although it is not very likely to see Chen Ruoshi in the lobby, as long as there is a front-line possibility, it is worth fighting for it. The arrival of Chen Qingming and his group gave the people in the lobby a chance to fight for. Now even the old man who bought vegetables in the city knows that the Chen and Li families are going to re-establish diplomatic relations, and the key figure is the granddaughter of the city lord! Then as long as it can leave an impression on Chen Qingming, it is no different from directly pleasing the city lord!

So, Chen Qingming and his group stood in the lobby for less than 5 minutes, and the guests around gathered like hungry beasts.

Although most people have friendly and even flattering smiles on their faces, and their words are extremely gorgeous. As soon as they open their mouths, they praise Chen Qingming so that there are few in the sky and on the ground, but as the person involved, Chen Qingming only felt chills all over his body when he heard it.

As a normal person, Chen Qingming certainly doesn't want others to belittle himself out of thin air, such as mild mental retardation and secondary sexual incompleteness. Such words are heartbreaking. But on the other hand, excessive praise can also cause girls to be unhappy, after all, people have shame. What's more, these praises really have no sincerity, and it sounds like insulting Chen Qingming's limited IQ.

"Oh, are you the granddaughter of Lord Shen? I've been so happy for a long time. I'm the owner of the xx sect. I'm good at farming farming and farming. The grains and livestock produced are the best around Shencheng, regardless of quantity or quality. High-end ingredients are even more famous all over the world. In 2015, we signed an exclusive supply agreement with the top restaurants in Liantian City. In addition, we are also engaged in the manufacturing and development of agricultural tools and equipment. After years of slept with firewood and tasted gall, we have now accumulated a considerable technical accumulation! We are preparing to develop a brand new agricultural reclamation pioneering technology to turn water into oil. Once successful, countless wastelands in the border fields of Xiangzhou will become fertile farmland! It is more likely to solve the energy problem in the whole world. However, this epoch-making technology research cost is too high, and the capital chain of Bumen is becoming increasingly tight, and we need external funds to support it. I don't know..."

This series of advertisements and begging words were like flowing clouds and water. Chen Qingming was stunned. He saw the fat sect leader who specialized in farming and recuperation, bowing his knees and blinking his eyes to plead. The squirming appearance of fat on his face was several times more disgusting than Li Xinyu. However, before the fat sect leader could continue to pose, he was pushed away by the people next to him.

A middle-aged poor scholar with a gray beard squeezed over, tidying up his clothes while tidying up his messy clothes, and putting on a kind smile and saying.

"Qingming, Qingming, do you still remember me? I am Chen Da, your Uncle Da! Don't you remember me? I saw you when you were young! Look at your eyebrows and eyes, exactly the same as when you were young! But at that time I didn't expect you to be so graceful and graceful. It's really a girl who has grown up... Long time no see, Uncle Da has nothing else to give you, this calligraphy and painting was my inspiration last week, I gave it to you. I just hope you don't think of your Uncle Da's poor skills. In fact, I had the opportunity to achieve higher achievements in calligraphy and painting, but due to my lack of vision and lack of knowledge, calligraphy and painting have always fallen into a stalemate. Some time ago, the family organized a group of people. Public officials went to Jinyu City for inspection. I wanted to follow him, but they insisted that my rank was not enough and I was not allowed to participate. This is really a disgrace! How can I see the level of the rank of the art matter? ... Qingming, I have reported this matter many times and the people above, but it has no result. They are all vulgar people and do not understand the beauty of art, but you are different. Therefore, Uncle Da hopes that you can say a few more beautiful words in the ears of the city lord and help me with this little favor. In short, everything is all for you! After the matter is done, I will draw 10 private portraits for you for free! With such a good appearance and figure, if you don’t leave a few private paintings, it will be a big loss in your life!”

When Chen Da said this, he finally couldn't stop the surging of the people behind him and was pushed away. On the opposite side, Li Chaolu pinched a wrinkled calligraphy and painting with a confused look on his face, and then threw it into the trash can aside with disgust.

"There are some mental retarded people here? Even if you don't recognize people, you are so embarrassed to ask others for help!" After a pause, he turned around curiously and asked Li Wanqing.

"Sister Wanqing, do you know what that private portrait is?"

Li Wanqing said meaningfully: "I know a little bit, and I'll draw it for you when I go back."

"Hey, okay, thank you." Li Chaolu smiled simply.

After a long time of farce, Chen Qingming finally couldn't help but reach out to call the attendant: "Take us upstairs quickly."

The waiter was shocked: "Ah?! But, the positions of several people have been arranged, and the private room upstairs is only for Mr. Wang Jiu and Li Xinyu..."

"We will pass the banquet. Now we just want to go upstairs to take shelter. OK, stop talking nonsense, and lead the way!" Chen Qingming was really harassed and a little angry. There was an aunt who had just come out of some village and wanted to introduce her son to her!

If I want to stay in the lobby again, the girl is afraid that she will not be able to help but set the sword blade storm.

Chen Qingming glared with a stern look, and the waiter wanted to persuade him, but suddenly felt cold and nodded involuntarily.

Then he led the way in front and muttered in his heart. The granddaughter of the city lord is indeed different. He was still half a step away from the realm of the true essence, but his glaring eyes made him unable to bear it in the middle stage of the Yun Yong Realm...

However, the above did not say that he would take Miss Qingming upstairs. He was so self-righteous, and I don’t know if he would be punished...

Uneasy, the waiter finally brought the group to the box prepared by Chen Jinghai for Wang Jiu and Li Xinyu.

As soon as I pushed the door, everyone could smell a refreshing fragrance.

"Wow, it tastes so fragrant." Chen Qingming only felt shocked, and the depressed mood accumulated by being harassed by the crowd disappeared.

"Wow, the taste is so fragrant." Li Xinyu was also shocked, and only felt that every pore on his body was so comfortable that he couldn't tell. He couldn't help but show his obsessive and intoxicated look, and then...

"Okay, let's give it to you, go out." Li Chaolu stuffed the incense burner on the cabinet into Li Xinyu's arms, and then pushed it out of the door.

Li Xinyu wanted to cry without tears, but holding the incense burner, he felt floating all over and had no thoughts of being sad at all.

After eliminating Li Xinyu's interference, the people in the box were finally able to say something seriously.

"The atmosphere today is really deadly." Li Chaolu was the first to complain, "It's like inspecting a refugee camp. What's going on with the Shen family? I just ignored it a month ago, but today I'm all the stars supporting the moon."

"Of course, it's because the city lord's attitude has changed. Now, when you go out to buy a snack, you can meet 7 Shencheng people who are talking about Chen and Li's re-establishment of diplomatic relations. "Li Wanqing shrugged and smiled at Chen Qingming, "Congratulations, after working hard, I finally see the blue sky."

Chen Qingming's face didn't have a happier look: "I always feel that things are very strange. Whether it is the city lord's sudden change in attitude or this birthday party, it makes people feel something is wrong."

Li Wanqing also realized that Chen Qingming's expression was indeed very wrong from the beginning of entering the door.

"If you feel uncomfortable... just go back first. To be honest, I don't feel very good either." Li Wanqing said frankly.

Chen Qingming shook his head: "No, I have come to this point, I will not look back. This is... my mother's last wish."

Li Wanqing frowned: "Your mother? Didn't she break off relations with the family in person?"

Chen Qingming said, "I just realized that from the beginning of entering the door, I felt that every grass and tree here seemed familiar, especially the scenery after passing the lobby, as if I had been here many times before..."

As soon as these words were said, the atmosphere suddenly became a little terrifying, because as we all know, Chen Qingming was born and raised in Qingyun, and never returned to Shencheng a half-step...

Li Chaolu reacted the most and her body began to tremble: "This, Sister Qingming, you are not being overwhelmed by something, right?"

"...No." Chen Qingming shook his head, "I haven't really been here. It's the story my mother told me when I was very young. There is always a place like this in it. Every grass and tree inside is exactly the same as what I just saw. When I was a child, I felt that the yard my mother described was so beautiful, but I just discovered that it turned out to be where she grew up."

"Actually, she must have wanted to return to Shencheng, but she didn't have this opportunity until she died."
