Chapter 9 Dragon In The Clouds, Mud On The Ground
- The lively engagement banquet suddenly fell into complete silence.
- Especially when the Liu family saw the expensive betrothal gifts adorned with red embroidery placed in front of them, they were completely stunned!
- Dong Peng stumbled, his legs trembling.
- Every name mentioned by the gift presenter was a prominent figure from his grandfather's generation. The Dong family was nothing compared to these influential individuals.
- He was terrified!
- Only Liu Shanhe remained calm, but his old face couldn't hide his excitement. Half of the influential figures in Zhonghai City had stepped into the Liu family's threshold. The Liu family was about to rise to prominence!
- "Hurry, quickly arrange seats for Mr. Lin and President Liu..."
- Liu Shanhe didn't dare to be negligent and personally greeted them with a cane.
- "Liu Lao, no need to rush, we will leave soon."
- The one speaking was Lin Mobei from the Zhonghai Strategic Energy Group. Normally reserved and serious, he unexpectedly showed politeness to Liu Shanhe.
- Liu Shanhe was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Mr. Lin, may I ask who is this General Shen and which of my daughters has caught his eye?"
- Hua.
- As soon as this question was asked, the young girls of the Liu family blushed, and each one looked excitedly at Lin Mobei. Some even picked up their cosmetic cases to touch up their appearance.
- "I'm sorry, we are only responsible for delivering the gifts. We don't know anything else."
- After Lin Mobei finished speaking, he hurriedly left with the group of influential figures, leaving no information behind. They hadn't even seen the legendary War God Xuan Yuan; they were only instructed to deliver the betrothal gifts.
- They didn't want to say too much and make themselves uncomfortable.
- However.
- Just as everyone was puzzled, Shen Lian suddenly spoke.
- "These old folks are quite sensible. Although these betrothal gifts fall short of my expectations, they still have good intentions."
- Hahaha.
- "Shen Lian, you must have gone crazy. Are you saying that you sent these betrothal gifts?" Liu Qianqian burst into laughter.
- "Yes, and this is not all. The most important one is still on its way."
- Shen Lian glanced at his watch, estimating the time.
- As soon as he said this, the Liu family burst into even louder laughter. Even Liu Ruoxing felt that Shen Lian was being unreasonable.
- "Shen Lian, have you had enough of this nonsense!"
- Liu Ruoxing's face turned pale with anger, disappointment evident in her eyes.
- Liu Qianqian also sarcastically said, "What an arrogant person. It seems necessary to verify with the prison whether this guy really escaped from there!"
- "I'll call and ask later. He even dares to claim the betrothal gift from this important figure. I wonder what else he wouldn't dare to do!"
- Liu Junfei said as he was about to take out his phone.
- "Ruoqing, I didn't lie to you. I indeed asked them to send the betrothal gift. The person they referred to as Shen Shuai is me."
- Shen Lian didn't want to make Liu Ruoqing sad, so he quickly explained.
- "Lunatic!"
- "Shen Lian, you're insane! Do you know who this imposter Shen Shuai is?"
- At this moment, Dong Peng, who had been silent, suddenly trembled and shouted, startling everyone including Liu Shanhe.
- "Son-in-law, do you know this Shen Shuai?"
- Dong Peng seemed to have thought of something terrifying, his lips trembling. "Last night, my father's friend who works in the municipal building told me that the Zhonghai Airport was suddenly sealed for five hours. They claimed that there were 80,000 ground troops and a hundred fighter jets escorting in the air."
- "The head of the municipal building had already left several hours in advance and kept busy until dawn."
- Hiss.
- Everyone in the Liu family gasped in shock.
- "Then who is this person? With such a huge lineup, could he be from the capital?"
- "Not a person, according to that friend, he is a symbol of a powerful figure!" Dong Peng lowered his voice and said with a serious expression, "If this is true, then this symbol of a powerful figure should belong to this Shen Shuai, known as the Xuan Yuan War God!"
- Boom.
- The Liu family exploded.
- Liu Shanhe also staggered a few steps, and even the wrinkles on his face couldn't help but tremble. This Liu family was not only going to rise to prominence, but it was going to produce a phoenix!
- A national commander, the Xuan Yuan War God!
- Everyone's faces were filled with uncontrollable excitement as they looked at the row of betrothal gifts on the ground, their eyes burning with fire.
- "Son-in-law, is this true?"
- "My father's friend is an assistant to a high-ranking official, so it's almost certain," Dong Peng took a deep breath and then disdainfully looked at Shen Lian.
- "Both surnamed Shen, some people are like dragons in the sky, while others are just worthless mud that can't even stick to the wall!"
