the bustling Peninsula InterContinental Hotel;
There were a dazzling array of luxury cars at the door, and guests walked into the banquet hall one after another. On the way, there were inevitably groups of familiar people chatting with each other.
Dong Xu followed Dong Zicheng, walking around the banquet hall and greeting the representatives of various wealthy families.
This press conference was initiated by Dong Zicheng in the name of the Dong family. Everyone thought it was just a normal banquet after he took office again, but no one knew that the real purpose of this banquet was to announce the next heir.
Jiang Luoning walked into the venue holding the arms of Fu Linxiao and Jiang Linghao at the same time, with a reluctant expression on his face.
No one would have thought that the drama of snatching people that was staged in the Jiang family when Jiang Luoning accompanied Fu Linxiao to the AX banquet would be staged again today without any discussion.
Jiang Linghao was afraid that Fu Linxiao would prepare other vehicles as before, so he grabbed the man's arm tightly the moment he entered the Jiang family, and did not even give the man a chance to be alone when he went to the toilet.
When Jiang Luoning finished packing and came down from upstairs, he saw the two people who looked like conjoined twins.
After several arguments, Jiang Luoning was finally defeated; the result was that he was sandwiched between two tall men. These two people could cause a sensation as soon as they appeared, and now this scene attracted everyone's attention and was very arrogant.
However, due to their status, no one dared to question it. However, the young ladies from the aristocratic families could not hide their envy of Jiang Luoning.
"Brother Fu, Young Master Jiang, Ningning, you're here!"
When Dong Xu saw the few people, he was the first to step forward and greet them. There was a familiarity in his words and he did not deliberately avoid them. This was also the result of unanimous discussion among everyone.
Since the decision has been made to push Dong Xu to the forefront, no one cares about other people's opinions or controversies about him.
Although it is unknown what Dong Jiaxue's subsequent actions will be, due to the relationship between the Fu and Jiang families, those in the imperial capital who are eyeing them with ill intentions will certainly not dare to act rashly. After all, the anger of these two families is not something that anyone can easily bear.
"Dong Xu, be careful with your outfit today. Look at the way those young ladies from the noble families around you are looking at you. They want you to be taken home right now for an engagement ceremony!"
Jiang Luoning continued to tease and joke with the man as usual, without caring at all about the presence of the guests.
The little girl's unrestrained behavior made the onlookers whisper to each other. They simply didn't understand when the relationship between the three major families became so close.
In the past, the imperial capital was supported by the three major families, but everyone was well aware of the status of the three families. The Dong family was able to maintain its existence only because the other two families barely stayed in the ranks of the families out of respect for their elders.
Therefore, for the people of the Dong family, it was just superficial communication. They never thought that they would see the three major families in the imperial capital communicating so harmoniously again.
Perhaps because they were too shocked, the voices of people around them became louder and louder, and from time to time one could hear their doubts.
"When did Dong Xu become so close to Master Fu and the others?"
"If you ask me, it was that former Madam Dong who caused the Dong family to go downhill in such a dismal state!"
"Yes! When Dong Zicheng was in power, the Dong family was also thriving!"
"Hmm! I guess the three great families will really be on equal footing from now on!"
"Be careful when facing the Dong family in the future!"
The whispered discussions intermittently responded to everyone in the banquet hall. After this spread, the status of Dong Xu and the Dong family was significantly improved.
Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Jiang Luoning signaled Dong Xu not to worry about them and just take care of other guests. After all, they were always gathered together and it was really eye-catching.
As expected, all-round cameras have been installed in every corner of the banquet hall, and the monitoring room is still guarded by the two young men Axing and Lu Zifan who obey their sister's orders.
"Brother Zifan, why didn't my sister take me to the party? It was like this last time, and it's the same this time! Am I not worthy?"
Ah Xing sat on the sofa with a complaining look on his face, and had no intention of watching the picture on the big screen.
At the last AX banquet, he was assigned to the monitoring room to assist Jiang Luoning and monitor the movements of Ling Qingya and Dong Siqing. At that time, Jiang Luoning did not reveal his identity and he could understand that he needed help from the person he trusted most.
But now that everyone knows each other's abilities, why is he still allowed to attend the party with her?
Hearing the boy's complaint, Lu Zifan looked serious and patiently explained to Ah Xing;
"Ah Xing, you are not only Xiao Ningning's younger brother, but you are also the descendant of a hidden family in the imperial capital. Now that the Dongfang family has returned to the imperial capital, your every move will be under the scrutiny of everyone in the aristocratic family. Your actions are not just your own, but represent the entire Dongfang family. If you show up so rashly today, the Dong family will definitely be linked to the hidden family!"
Seeing that the boy's frown was still there, Lu Zifan stood up helplessly and walked towards the corner where Axing was.
"Ah Xing, if the past of the Dong and Helian families is really discovered, your grandfather, father, aunt, and even the experiences of little Ningning and your brother-in-law's family will surely be exposed again. Do you really want to see Ningning suffer even more because of these things?"
Knowing that what Ah Xing cares about most is the emotions among his family, Lu Zifan slowly became more friendly; he finally saw that the depression in the boy's eyes was gradually easing.
Lu Zifan did not explain any more, knowing that the boy understood the meaning of the words. Without lingering for too long, he pulled the boy to the screen and carefully completed the assigned task.
