Su Jiayin was annoyed.
‘I told him not to come.
How could he be so shameless as to show up anyway?’
“Damn it!” Su Bingtian’s face darkened when he saw Xiao Changge.
“Changge, what are you doing here?” Wang Mei asked, a little surprised.
“I’m here for the banquet,” Xiao Changge explained.
“Don’t tell me you’re here for my grandfather’s birthday banquet,” Su Jiayin said sarcastically.
“Jiayin!”
Wang Mei shot Su Jiayin a look before turning to Xiao Changge with a smile.
“Changge, since you’re here, why don’t you come in with us?”
Xiao Changge shook his head.
“Aunt Mei, I’m going to the top floor.”
The top floor?
The three of them froze.
They knew perfectly well what banquet was being held on the top floor today, as their own event was in the same building, Tianxiang Pavilion.
“My, aren’t you something.
If I recall correctly, the Asura War God of the Dragon Country is hosting a banquet on the top floor today.
Even the Su family isn’t qualified to attend.
And you are?”
Su Bingtian laughed.
‘This guy must be dreaming.
Him, attend the Asura War God’s banquet?’
Even if the Su family exhausted all their resources, they wouldn’t be qualified to attend.
“Mom, look at him…” Su Jiayin fumed.
‘A braggart like him is supposed to be worthy of me?’
Wang Mei felt a little awkward.
Clearly, she didn’t believe Xiao Changge was qualified to attend the Asura War God’s banquet either.
That banquet was the most exclusive event ever held in the East Sea.
Only the truly elite families of the East Sea were qualified to attend.
“Maybe…
Changge really is qualified,” Wang Mei said, defending him.
She was only saying it to help him save face.
“Hmph!”
Su Bingtian snorted coldly, not bothering to say anything else.
“By the way, Aunt Mei, since today is Master Su’s banquet, I happen to have a Tianshan snow lotus here.” Xiao Changge handed the snow lotus, a gift from Asura, to Wang Mei.
“Thank you.
This Tianshan snow lotus looks very valuable,” Wang Mei said with a smile.
“It’s nothing special.
Just a thousand-year-old specimen,” Xiao Changge said casually.
“What?”
Su Bingtian, standing nearby, was shocked.
“Did you say this is a thousand-year-old Tianshan snow lotus?”
“That’s right.” Xiao Changge nodded.
“What a joke!”
Su Bingtian said disdainfully, “A thousand-year-old Tianshan snow lotus is a true treasure of heaven and earth.
It’s something money can’t buy.
Such priceless natural treasures are usually in the hands of the imperial family.
Who do you think you are to get your hands on one?”
“Asura gave it to me,” Xiao Changge stated.
What an outrageous claim.
And who was Asura?
He was the Peak War God of the Dragon Country!
Su Bingtian was so angry he was speechless.
He could only look at Wang Mei, his expression clearly saying, ‘This is the idiot you insisted on taking in?’
“So, you’re saying you know Asura?” Su Jiayin asked.
“That’s right.”
“Do you see those two security guards at the elevator to the top floor?
You can’t get up there today without an invitation.
Since you know Asura, why don’t you go on up?”
Su Jiayin crossed her arms, ready to watch Xiao Changge make a fool of himself.
“Changge was just joking,” Wang Mei explained.
“Mom, does he look like he’s joking to you?” Su Jiayin huffed.
Xiao Changge didn’t say another word and walked straight toward the elevators.
“Please present your invitation!”
The two security guards blocked Xiao Changge’s path.
“I don’t have an invitation,” Xiao Changge said, shaking his head.
“No entry without an invitation!” the two guards said sternly.
The top floor was hosting a supremely exclusive banquet, so of course they couldn’t just let anyone in.
“How pathetic,” Su Bingtian and Su Jiayin sneered, watching the spectacle.
Wang Mei sighed, a wave of disappointment washing over her.
‘He’s nothing like that old man from all those years ago,’ she thought.
‘Not even close.’
And this entire scene was witnessed by Ye Xiaoyun, who had just walked in.
