'Tianjing Hotel', 1119th floor.
The bright light illuminates every corner of the 1119th floor, rendering it into golden lights and reflecting on the golden curtains, making the entire cocktail party magnificent and giving people a feeling of nobility and splendor.
The people gathered here today are the top celebrities in the capital. The men are all dressed in suits and look very noble. The women are all wearing gorgeous evening gowns, each one is beautiful and elegant.
Various exquisite items and fine wines were placed in every corner of the cocktail party. Waiters dressed in tuxedos, who were carefully selected for their appearance and figure, and maids dressed sexy and beautifully, carried trays with various fine wines on them, wandered among the crowd, serving everyone attentively and gently.
Men gathered in groups of three or five, holding their glasses and chatting quietly with smiles on their faces. Women also gathered together, talking about some private matters, occasionally letting out clear and crisp laughter like silver bells, attracting the attention of some men.
Those who can appear at this occasion today are basically real celebrities and socialites...those "fake socialites" on the Internet are not qualified to appear here.
The reason is simple... Everyone knows who this welcoming banquet is for.
'Dawn'... this strange yet familiar name caused a sensation throughout the capital during this period.
The most important thing is the four words "Earth Walking".
There are many noble families in the capital, but those who have the ability to 'walk on the earth' are rare.
In addition, the leader hand-picked the right to sell the Abyss Materials, which everyone coveted, to be given to Dawn... This attracted even more attention.
The exclusive right to sell abyss materials, these people know very well what it means to have this qualification.
Today was their first contact with Dawn. This contact would likely determine their strategy and attitude towards Dawn, as well as their next move...
Those fake socialites are not qualified to attend such an important cocktail party.
"It's already past eight o'clock, and most people have arrived, but the host and guest haven't come yet... This Dawn is really arrogant."
A man who looked like a nobleman looked at the valuable watch on his wrist, then said something lightly with a forced smile and took a sip of wine.
"I heard it was a woman. As a woman, it's understandable that she's a little slower."
Another young man next to him smiled slightly and said without comment.
"I heard that there are two earth-walking figures in Dawn, named Zhang San and Li Si... I heard that someone from Dawn was coming today, and I was expecting it to be one of these two. I didn't expect it to be a woman... Tsk..."
Another person sighed softly and shook his head quietly, with a hint of regret in his tone.
"Are women not good?" The young man next to him suddenly winked and said, "Although I haven't seen her with my own eyes, I have heard from others that... the one who came to Dawn this time is a great beauty... She is no worse than the one from the Gong family. Wen Yi, don't you think about it?... If you can really marry a beauty, you will make a fortune. She has two earth-walking figures behind her. From now on, you will be in the Jiang family..."
Before he finished speaking, the man next to him rolled his eyes: "Any Tom, Dick or Harry dares to commit fraud? Canglan? What beautiful women can there be in such a small place that no one has ever heard of? Walking on the earth... sounds fierce? But doesn't anyone here have a lot of gods? At most, they can just spend some water of purification. I don't know how the leader..."
At the end of his speech, he paused, but rationally did not continue.
Although the leader does not care about worldly affairs, he cannot be arranged by anyone at will.
The young man next to him was about to say something else, but at this moment, the door of the cocktail party was pushed open.
The door was suddenly pushed open, and then some men in suits and ties rushed in, opened the door, and stood on both sides.
Two figures slowly walked in from outside the door.
This sudden movement attracted a lot of attention.
When these people's eyes fell on the two figures in the middle, everyone's expressions were slightly startled, revealing a look of surprise...
The ones who came were naturally Gong Luoyue and Li Yuqi.
Gong Luoyue was wearing a black evening gown, mysterious and elegant. She was extremely beautiful, and even among the celebrities at the cocktail party, she was the center of attention.
Her appearance at this moment naturally attracted a lot of men's attention. There was a look of amazement in each of their eyes, and some of them even showed a bit of obsession... The Gong family is also the leading large family in the capital. As a direct descendant of the Gong family, Gong Luoyue is not only stunningly beautiful, but her background also adds an indescribable charm and nobility to her.
Many of the dignitaries of similar age in the capital are secretly obsessed with her.
Seeing her dressed up in an evening gown, their hearts seemed to skip a few beats...
However, when they reluctantly moved their gazes away from Gong Luoyue, the next second, their gazes froze again, and then, most of them showed a look of amazement in their eyes...
Because the woman standing next to Gong Luoyue now is really no less beautiful than Gong Luoyue... In fact, just from the appearance, she is even more stunning! She is wearing a dark red slim-fitting evening dress, with her black hair casually tied behind her head, revealing her fair and slender neck, showing her elegance and beauty.
Her appearance is exquisite to perfection, her eyebrows and eyes are like paintings, and her lips are like dots.
She came with Gong Luoyue. Facing many celebrities from the capital, her expression showed no sign of anxiety or uneasiness. Instead, she looked casual.
The ease and carefreeness revealed in the movement of her eyebrows and eyes show the calmness and composure in her heart.
Wrapped in a flaming red dress, she is like a rose in full bloom...extremely beautiful and extremely calm.
The three young men who had just spoken were now staring with wide eyes...
Gong Luoyue is beautiful, but after all, they are quite familiar with her and used to seeing her, so the sense of surprise and shock is not too strong.
But the shock of appearance brought to them by the woman from 'Dawn' whom they were just discussing was too intense.
Everyone is a little bit stupid.
Not only the men, but also the socialites in the distance were all staring with their eyes wide open, and it took them a while to come back to their senses.
But then, they looked at Li Yuqi with a strong hostility subconsciously...
Amidst all kinds of gazes, Gong Luoyue led Li Yuqi inside and finally arrived at the center of the party.
There was a podium there. Gong Luoyue took Li Yuqi's hand and came to the podium. Someone immediately handed her a microphone.
She took the microphone with a smile, and then faced the celebrities and socialites and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, first of all, welcome to everyone for taking the time out of your busy schedule to attend the welcoming dinner hosted by Luoyue. The protagonist of the dinner is the beautiful lady next to Luoyue... Some of you may know her identity, but some may not be very clear, so Luoyue will give a brief introduction."
"I'm sure everyone has heard about the appearance of a god-level abyss species in Kaiyuan City some time ago. Many people may have been worried about it... The abyss has always been determined to destroy me. It has been trying to infiltrate me and cause great damage and casualties to me."
"We have seen the appearance of God-level Abyss Species before. Those were disasters that were too painful to look back on. Every time, there were huge sacrifices and losses... A large number of people were brutally killed by Abyss Species. The Iron Dome and cities that were built with the blood and tears of our ancestors were devastated. The arrival of God-level Abyss Species is such a 'natural disaster'."
"But this time, the four god-level abyss species that infiltrated were sent back to the abyss without causing any harm or loss to our people and property. What stopped them were two god-level strongmen walking on Earth. They stopped the destruction of the god-level abyss species and directly rescued hundreds of thousands of Iron Dome soldiers in Kaiyuan City, as well as nearly 60 million people in the entire Kaiyuan City. They have made great contributions to the country and the people, and are heroes of the country!"
"And these two national heroes are from a civilian organization called 'Dawn'."
"In fact, this is not just the Dawn organization stopping the destruction of the Abyss. Before that, there were several "evil churches" that were willing to be puppets of the Abyss, but they were stopped, found and destroyed by Dawn."
"And today, our guest, the beautiful lady next to me... is from this heroic organization."
"Let's give a warm round of applause to Ms. Li Yuqi from 'Dawn Breaking' and ask her to say a few words to us."
After saying that, Gong Luoyue took the lead in applauding.
The men in suits who were traveling with her also applauded.
However, the applause was still sparse.
Because most of the celebrities and socialites just sneered at the scene from a distance and had no intention of applauding.
The scene was a bit cold.
Li Yuqi took over the microphone. After hearing what Gong Luoyue said before, Li Yuqi had actually anticipated the "cold reception"... Giving the exclusive sales rights of Abyss materials to Poxiao had invisibly offended many of these powerful people.
This is actually pretty easy to understand...
It's like a group of people fighting over the family property at home, fighting openly and secretly.
But suddenly, my parents said that these properties would not be given to you, but to an outsider...
Who wouldn’t be furious? The Super Martial Alliance, the Lin family… The powerful people in the capital represented by them had established a huge power long ago.
Their power touches every aspect of Daxia, and they probably already considered Daxia as their own "property"? Suddenly, an "outsider" appeared and snatched away what they considered to be their "property". It would be strange for them to have a good impression of that "outsider".
If she were in his shoes, she probably wouldn't have any good feelings either.
But that's the way it is, Dawn is destined not to gain much favor from the start.
therefore……
Just be cold if you are rejected.
As long as it doesn't really affect or interfere in her affairs, it's fine.
Thinking of this, Li Yuqi smiled gently, "Hello everyone, my name is Li Yuqi, from Dawn. To be honest, Yuqi can't call out the names of anyone here right now, but it doesn't matter, there is still a lot of time... Yuqi will probably stay in the capital for a long time in the future, and I hope to make friends with everyone here."
Li Yuqi said with a smile.
After these words were spoken, the atmosphere remained cold. The socialites sneered from a distance, and the celebrities remained silent.
Li Yuqi didn't care, smiled lightly, and handed the microphone back to Gong Luoyue.
Gong Luoyue took the microphone, but before she could say anything, a chuckle with a hint of sharpness rang out.
"Make friends? Miss Li, you came to the capital to be a lady? And you plan to make friends with everyone? Is the atmosphere in Canglan City so open?"
The sudden sound made everyone look sideways.
Then, I saw that the person who was speaking was a woman. She had an ordinary appearance but a good figure. She was sitting in a corner of the party with a teasing smile on her face.
Li Yuqi's expression remained unchanged. He tilted his head slightly and looked at her.
Gong Luoyue frowned slightly, then her lips moved slightly, and Li Yuqi heard her voice.
"This woman's name is Luo Fei. She has a low status, but she owns several nightclubs. She is one of Lin Feng Gou's lovers... I just checked, and Lin Feng Gou hasn't arrived yet. It seems that he plans to let this woman take the lead... You should pay attention."
Li Xiqi's mind moved, and then he asked softly: "Someone obviously doesn't intend to calm down... If I start making trouble, how far can it go?"
How serious is the situation? Gong Luoyue was stunned for a moment, and after a moment of hesitation, she said, "No one will die."
"Understood."
After Li Yuqi said this, he turned his head away and stopped looking at the woman.
This kind of reaction caught the eyes of everyone and made their eyes move.
Luo Fei, because of Lin Fenggou, has become a celebrity in the capital.
As soon as she opened her mouth, those who had received the news a long time ago understood that it was Mad Dog Lin who had started to make trouble.
But unexpectedly, this Li Yuqi from Dawn didn't seem to care? This...
For a moment, everyone's eyes were flickering, guessing what Poxiao was thinking.
The woman who was speaking saw that the other party did not say anything back after she said something.
And with everyone around her paying attention to her, she became a little excited.
Luo Fei became a celebrity in the capital because of Lin Fenggou, but she knew very well that her identity was not presentable.
But now, being paid attention to by so many important people whom she couldn't even talk to before, her mind suddenly became smarter.
She basically understood everything, and knew that no one in the entire capital would welcome the arrival of 'Dawn'.
If I can do better, then in the future... won't I not have to rely solely on Lin Quan, and will I have more opportunities and development? Lin Quan is strong, but after all, he spends most of his time in the abyss. She wants to reach a higher position, get more wealth and development... Of course, the more connections the better! Thinking of this, Luo Fei was excited, and felt that a broad road was in front of him.
Obviously, Dawn had just arrived and didn't know much about the capital yet, so for now, everything had to be stable... I was just a small figure, and the people at Dawn must have known that, so they might not bother with me, otherwise, wouldn't it be too cheap?
In this case, can I go a little further? After all, even if Poxiao turns against me, I still have Lin Quan behind me.
For a moment, she analyzed the pros and cons in her mind, and finally made a decision. When Li Xiqi read her face, she stood up with a smile and said, "Miss Li, don't ignore me. You are so beautiful and so happy today. Why don't you dance with me? Maybe if you dance well, the heroes here will be willing to be your lovers..."
She laughed in an extremely frivolous manner, as if she really treated Li Yuqi as a hostess!
Everyone was just looking for a good show.
But at this moment, everyone's eyes suddenly blurred, and the next moment...
"ah!!"
There was a scream, followed by a loud bang. In the cocktail party, a series of tables, chairs, benches, etc. were knocked away in an instant.
Some celebrities suddenly screamed.
In the middle of the field, a man with a grim face was already standing there.
Luo Fei, who had just spoken, had already flown out.
Half of her face was sunken in, bones were exposed, and blood was dripping.
It was this man who punched him.
Her body knocked over a lot of tables, chairs and benches, making the entire party silent. All that could be seen was Luo Fei covering his face and screaming.
Everyone was shocked, and they stared with wide eyes at the man who suddenly appeared in the field.
The man looked indifferent and glanced around indifferently. Finally, he said calmly: "If you can speak, then speak properly. If you can't speak, don't speak. If you can't speak, but want to talk too much... then don't blame others for ripping your mouth off."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone gasped, and then looked at Li Yuqi one by one.
However, Li Yuqi, who was standing in front of the rostrum, was still smiling and talking to Gong Luoyue...
She didn't even glance over there.
Gong Luoyue beside her seemed a little stunned. When she responded to Li Yuqi, her eyes showed a bit of weirdness...
For a moment, the scene fell into silence.
