349: Chapter 350: Tang Family Dinner!
(Part 1) 349: Chapter 350: Tang Family Dinner!
(Part 1) The Tang Family, the foremost grand family of Xuanjing City.
The members of the Tang Family sweep across the business, industry, officialdom, and military sectors.
On the fifteenth of every month, there is always a banquet.
This time, the Tang Family’s banquet was set within their Shuiyue Liuli.
The so-called Shuiyue Liuli is one of the Tang Family’s restaurants, a wooden cottage restaurant established on a lake, its layout quite compact, yet the contents inside are surprisingly expensive, not something ordinary people can afford.
Only the upper echelons of society come here, which is to say, only those of status are eligible to dine here.
Now, by the artificial lake to the west of the capital, a string of wooden houses was built.
They weren’t constructed on land, but on boats instead, moving on the water, albeit only within a small area due to the hemp ropes binding them.
To reach Shuiyue Liuli, one must cross an artificial bridge made from wooden planks.
Since the Tang Family is hosting a banquet, they are not open for business today and will not have any other guests—only the Tang Family’s own members.
When the time comes, all the Tang relatives in Xuanjing City will come to join the banquet.
At this moment, outside the parking lot of Shuiyue Liuli.
Too many luxury cars were parked, Maseratis, Audis, Mercedesses, and Porsches—many of which were limited editions, along with several military vehicles.
People disembarked and greeted each other with pleasantries!
Then, they all walked together towards Shuiyue Liuli.
And by the wooden bridge, Tang Lin was waiting to receive the guests.
Upon seeing a figure in military attire approaching, he immediately greeted with a smile, “Uncle Ming, you’ve come quite early this time.
As a General, you must be incredibly busy with official duties.
Please, come in quickly!”
The man in military uniform smiled and said, “Xiaolin, I haven’t seen you for a month, and you seem to have grown even taller!”
“Uncle Ming, you’re joking again…”
“Aunt Guo, you’ve become even more beautiful in just a month!”
…
Tang Lin welcomed each person upon their arrival.
Receiving his own family members at the banquet was Tang Lin’s task for this evening, and it was a task he had volunteered for.
Because he was waiting for someone.
Waiting for Tang Zhong to come.
He had sent out the invitation yesterday, just unsure if Tang Zhong would attend.
After all, the ultimate purpose of this banquet was for Tang Zhong.
Meanwhile, outside of Shuiyue Liuli, where luxury cars kept arriving, a plain car drove in at high speed, slowing down until it came to a screeching halt with a 180-degree handbrake turn.
Opening the car door, Tang Zhong stepped out from the driver’s seat.
“Master, how much is it?”
“O…
one hundred yuan…”
At this moment, the driver in the back seat was absolutely petrified, his hair standing on end.
He had never ridden in a car this fast before and was completely dumbstruck by fear.
Yet staring at Tang Zhong as he walked away, he almost wished he could skin him alive.
This guy had just gotten into the car and insisted on going to Shuiyue Liuli.
The driver had outright refused to take him there—it was a place swarming with luxury cars.
Taking a taxi there would simply be too embarrassing.
But who would have thought that this guy would kick the driver right into the front passenger seat before taking over the driver’s seat himself and speeding all the way there?
This decrepit taxi was driven as if it were a race car, vastly exceeding any expected speed.
“Oh, here’s a hundred yuan for you.
Go on your way!” Tang Zhong handed over a hundred yuan and passed it on.
The driver was too frightened to accept it.
Watching Tang Zhong’s retreating figure, he was deeply astonished.
This man was wasting his talent by not joining the national racing team—if he did, he would undoubtedly win the championship.
At this moment, Tang Zhong looked ahead at Shuiyue Liuli, his destination.
By going there and seeing the other members of the Tang Family, he would be able to figure out exactly what had happened in the past.
This time, he hadn’t alerted anyone from the Crown Prince’s Club to accompany him, wanting to come alone.
No matter what happened, he didn’t wish for the people from the Crown Prince’s Club to get involved in his complicated situation.
Because he had discovered that the Tang Family in his memory seemed not as simple as it appeared.
With that, he walked forward.
At this moment, beside the wooden bridge, Tang Lin kept staring into the distance.
By now, the guests for the banquet had almost all arrived, yet Tang Zhong still hadn’t shown up.
If this guy didn’t show, the ultimate purpose of this evening’s banquet would be utterly pointless.
However, at this time, Tang Lin started to smile.
He saw in the distance that Tang Zhong was approaching, and he immediately went forward to greet him.
“Tang Zhong, you’ve finally arrived.
I thought you wouldn’t come.”
Tang Zhong also saw Tang Lin, but he had no fondness for the people of the Tang Family.
He didn’t even glance at Tang Lin, simply walking past him and heading straight for the wooden bridge in the distance.
This was the first time Tang Lin had been treated like this, and he could only clench his teeth in anger as he watched Tang Zhong walk by him, then his gaze fixated on the other man’s retreating back, the venom in his eyes becoming ever more apparent.
“Tang Zhong…
you’re ultimately too arrogant!”
Now that Tang Zhong had arrived, Tang Lin no longer needed to wait here.
He followed behind Tang Zhong, crossing the wooden bridge.
Tang Zhong’s face remained ice cold.
He had come to the Tang Family this time to find out what exactly had happened years ago.
His parents had given so much to the Tang Family, so why, upon their deaths, was there not even a grave to mark their passing?
He ascended the steps of Shuiyue Liuli step by step.
At this moment, within Shuiyue Liuli, those who had come for the Tang Family banquet had gradually taken their seats.
There was an oval table fifteen meters long, with dishes laid out on top, a large group gathering around it, deep in conversation.
Everyone present was dressed in formal attire, chatting with each other.
The Family Head Tang Ran, dressed in a Tang suit, was seated at the foremost position of the table.
At this moment, he was smiling at the people assembled there.
“Silence, please!”
Within the Tang Family, the Family Head held the greatest authority.
His words carried the weight of an Emperor’s in a country.
Instantly, the venue fell quiet, and then all eyes turned to the distant Tang Ran.
“I hereby announce that the Tang Family banquet now begins.
In our family, the principle of the survival of the fittest prevails.
Let’s hear about everyone’s recent performances.”
Within the Tang Family, there was such a rule: at each banquet, every person would report what they had done over the last month, their achievements, which was one of the reasons why the Tang Family had thrived for so long!
“This time, I engaged in talks with the district chief of Jiangnan District for a tourism project.
If successful, we can anticipate a revenue of ten billion!” A fat man, obviously a businessman, spoke up.
“As for me, several more squad leaders emerged under my command, further solidifying my position in the military district!”
…
Each person was speaking, with only a few reporting a decrease in income this month.
Tang Ran hardly paid attention to what they were saying; all of his focus was awaiting another person’s arrival.
Not too long ago, he received a text message on his phone.
“He’s here!”
It was sent by Tang Lin.
That also signified that the person was arriving.
Thus, Tang Ran’s gaze remained fixed on the door ahead.
He was now waiting for that person to come.
Meanwhile, outside, Tang Zhong had reached the door.
Looking at the brightly lit interior ahead, he immediately stretched out his palm to push open the door.
Once he passed through this door, he would know what had happened to his parents back then, why there was no grave for them in the Tang Family.
This was the answer Tang Zhong had been longing to know.
With a creak, the door slowly opened.
