Chapter 258: Chapter 258: The Pearl in the Palm of the Bai Family
Watching Lin Dong and Bai Jue smoothly board the cruise ship, Zhang Meilan was dumbstruck with disbelief.
"How is it possible, with their status, how could they possibly be qualified to receive an invitation of such a high-profile evening banquet?"
Zhang Meilan kept shaking her head, approaching the guard to say:
"Big brother, could you have made a mistake? The invitations those two had just now must be fake; with their status, it would be impossible for them to be invited!"
However, the guard coldly responded:
"I’ve already checked, their invitations are correct. Don’t make trouble here!"
Hearing this, Zhang Meilan was still unwilling to accept it and wanted to say more.
But just at that moment, the people queuing behind were starting to get impatient.
"What’s going on? Who is this woman? She’s delaying everyone’s time!"
Zhang Meilan, with fear, discovered that the person speaking was none other than Ning City’s tycoon, Guo Jun.
Besides Guo Jun, there was also Tong City’s tycoon, Wang Liu.
These were both ruthless characters, and even though Zhang Meilan was from Southern Capital, she had heard of the deeds of these two tycoons.
She trembled with fear, quickly apologizing to them.
"I’m sorry, I’m sorry, it was my fault."
As she spoke, she quickly stepped aside to clear the way!
"Move further away, don’t block Sister Hong’s path!" Guo Jun, who already had a fierce appearance, barked angrily at Zhang Meilan, leaving her legs so weak that she nearly fell to the ground.
She hurriedly moved aside, only to see Guo Jun and Wang Liu, flanking a beautiful woman in a red dress, board the cruise ship.
By this time, Qian Hao had returned from the restroom.
Seeing Zhang Meilan standing there trembling all over, he couldn’t help but ask:
"Mei Lan, what’s wrong with you?"
Zhang Meilan was still recovering from the shock, stammering as she replied:
"I just carelessly blocked the way of Ning City’s tycoon, Guo Jun, and Tong City’s tycoon, and was reprimanded by tycoon Guo Jun. It was terrifying."
Upon hearing this, Qian Hao replied in a grave tone:
"I told you to be more alert. At today’s gathering, any character we meet could cause us trouble if offended—not just you, even I would face consequences if I offended them!"
"I understand, I understand, Young Master Qian. Rest assured, I’ll be more alert from now on. I definitely won’t block anyone’s path again!" Zhang Meilan said.
"Hmm, let’s go. Let’s enter too." Qian Hao suddenly felt a bit regretful for bringing Zhang Meilan along.
But Zhang Meilan was somewhat attractive, so Qian Hao decided to tolerate it for now.
He planned to amuse himself with her for a few more days before getting ready to dump her!
After the two of them boarded the cruise ship, they encountered Guo Jun, Wang Liu, Sister Hong, and their group again.
Zhang Meilan couldn’t help but ask Qian Hao beside her:
"Young Master Qian, who is that woman between tycoon Guo Jun and tycoon Wang Liu?
"For her to have both tycoons paying her so much attention!"
Qian Hao looked at Sister Hong, his face filled with awe.
That was a big shot that even his father, Qian Fuguo, had to try hard to ingratiate himself with.
"Her name is Sister Hong, currently the most popular figure in Southern Capital’s celebrity circle; even my dad has to court her favor," Qian Hao said solemnly.
"Ah... How is she so powerful? Could it be that she is the young miss of some prominent clan?" Zhang Meilan exclaimed in surprise.
"The young miss of a big clan? Do people like Guo Jun and Wang Liu need to be so courteous to her? Behind Sister Hong is the mysterious Master Lin, who destroyed the Sun Family and the wealthy Wang Family!" Qian Hao whispered.
"What!!?"
On hearing this, Zhang Meilan was utterly dumbfounded.
To her, Master Lin was like a godly figure.
He had the power to obliterate the wealthy Wang Family and the Sun Family; she couldn’t imagine just how terrifying such a person could be!
"You didn’t upset her just now, did you?" Qian Hao quickly asked.
"No, no, no!" Zhang Meilan rapidly shook her head.
"That’s good; with someone of her stature, had you troubled her, you would only be waiting for death."
Zhang Meilan, having just settled down from the shock, was grateful she had been sensible enough to move quickly out of the way when she blocked the path.
Otherwise, had she been a few seconds slower, perhaps she would no longer be in this world.
As they were talking, the evening banquet suddenly became noisy.
It turned out that a big shot had arrived.
"Welcome, honored guest, the leader of Longmen’s Southern District, Martial Arbiters Council Member Mr. Bai Zhonglou, accompanied by his wife and son, for the evening banquet!"
The voice of the MC rang out.
Then, Bai Zhonglou and his family were seen entering the cruise ship’s banquet hall.
The status of the Bai Family, led by Bai Zhonglou in Jiangnan Province, naturally went without saying.
It could be ranked among the top three, with only Xiao Jiu’s Xiao Family from the War Department on par with it.
The arrival of such a high-profile person naturally attracted the attention of the entire venue.
Many dignitaries went to greet him.
"Good evening, Mr. Bai!"
"Mr. Bai, Lady Bai, long time no see. You seem to have grown even younger."
"Good evening, Young Master Bai!"
"..."
Seeing this scene, Zhang Meilan enviously said, "The Bai Family, even at such a high-profile banquet, is one of the most prominent entities!"
"How envious I am. To be a woman and be able to marry into the Bai Family, how wonderful that would be!"
On hearing her words, Qian Hao was filled with disdain, secretly thinking that someone like her even dreaming of marrying into the Bai Family was ludicrous—she was not fit for it.
In the Bai Family, even being a maid would be too much, considering how disagreeable she was.
Then, at that moment, Bai Zhonglou and his wife Chen Wan announced something to everyone with a smile.
"Everyone, my wife and I had a daughter, but she unfortunately went missing over twenty years ago. After searching for over twenty years, we finally found her recently."
"Later, we will make the announcement! And let our friends from Southern Capital get to know our daughter!"
Wow!!
Upon this announcement, it was as if a bombshell was dropped in the midst of calm.
And Zhang Meilan, even more excitedly, wondered:
"My God, who is lucky enough to be that precious daughter of the Bai Family?"
