The day of the banquet soon arrived. The banquet was held on the host's planet, which was also a very developed planet, not far from the planet where Gu Xunli was.
"Is this true? My sister-in-law isn't coming?" It wasn't until he was about to attend the banquet that Song Bin realized that Wen Ya had rejected his brother and didn't attend the party.
Song Bin still didn't quite understand: "Why? This is clearly such a great opportunity."
Besides, as my sister-in-law is such a smart person, she shouldn't refuse no matter how you think about it.
Song Bin really couldn't understand it.
"She has something to do, so she can't come." Gu Xunli said lightly.
Song Bin: "Oh."
"It's getting late, let's go over there." Although he couldn't see, Gu Xunli was still able to estimate the approximate time. This was an ability he had developed over the years.
After being reminded by Gu Xunli, Song Bin finally realized what was going on. He nodded and said, "Okay."
This gathering was a rare large-scale event. With so many important figures in attendance, the organizers attached great importance to it, even booking the venue in a luxurious hotel resort. The surrounding environment was also very nice.
When Wen Ya and Yu Bingxie arrived, quite a few people were already there. Wen Ya also noticed that there were already many luxury cars parked outside the hotel entrance. There were almost no taxis like them.
Jade Ice Scorpion also looked around curiously and said in a low voice: "Although this place is not as good as our island, it looks pretty good."
"Yes, not bad." Wen Ya replied.
Yu Bingxie's attention was completely focused on a luxury car not far away. After a moment's thought, he said, "That car over there is quite nice. I'll buy one when I have time."
"Heh." Just as Yu Bingxie finished speaking, Wen Ya heard a disdainful sneer coming from not far away from them.
Wen Ya and Yu Bingxie turned around and looked in the direction of the sound. There was a lady who was dressed very exquisitely. She was wearing a very gorgeous dress. The dress seemed to be inlaid with diamonds, as if telling everyone that she was super rich.
Wen Ya and Yu Bingxie were dressed casually, not in formal attire. The lady looked them over for a moment, then raised her head slightly and said proudly, "That car is a limited edition, and it's no longer available. Even if you could buy it, I guess you wouldn't..."
"Mom." The arrogant woman had not yet finished her words when a girl next to her who was dressed equally luxuriously gently pulled her hand, and the woman did not finish her words.
There were quite a few people passing by, but there were no taxi drivers like them. Their unique appearance naturally attracted a lot of attention, and many people unconsciously looked over at them.
"I really don't know what Old Xia is thinking this time. Why does he invite so many people here?" The woman looked at Wen Ya and Yu Bingxie again, and couldn't help but say in a low voice.
Hearing this, Yu Bingxie's anger rose rapidly. If it were in the past, she would have slapped him, but now Yu Bingxie had grown up. She glanced sideways at Wen Ya, and when she saw that Wen Ya didn't try to stop her, Yu Bingxie said, "It's true! How come even those with dog eyes invite us in here?"
"Who are you talking about? How can you speak like that at such a young age?" Yu Bingxie did not lower her voice at all. Her words entered the woman's ears completely. She frowned, turned around, looked at Yu Bingxie and said.
"Whoever looks at me is the one I'm talking about." Yu Bingxie said back without any fear.
When the people around saw that someone was arguing here, they all looked over here curiously.
"Isn't that the wife of the Zhang family? Why is she arguing with someone here?"
"Oh, that woman has always been like this. But who is that little girl? Why haven't I seen her before? Is she some rich girl?"
"I don't know. I haven't seen it either."
"You are rebelling! Do you know who I am?" Mrs. Zhang was angered by the arrogant Yu Bingxie. She walked up to Yu Bingxie and said angrily.
"I don't care who you are. What does who you are have to do with me? What? Do you still want to recognize me as your father?" Yu Bingxie let go completely, looked at the woman and rushed over to her.
Madam Zhang was so angry that her face turned red and her neck was thick. Before she could think of a reply, she heard Yu Bingxie say again: "But even if you recognize me as your father, it's not enough. Recognizing me as your ancestor is more appropriate."
After hearing what Yu Bingxie said, Madam Zhang felt so angry that she almost died. She stretched out her hand, wanting to slap Yu Bingxie. Yu Bingxie subconsciously almost released her aura, but unexpectedly, Wen Ya took a step forward and reached out to firmly grasp Madam Zhang's wrist.
Wen Ya's arms were thin, but they were quite powerful. Madam Zhang had no ability to resist in her hands. But you have to know that although Madam Zhang doesn't look like one, she is also a very powerful person.
"You, you..." Mrs. Zhang widened her eyes slightly and looked at Wen Ya in disbelief.
"I didn't mean to offend you, but if you keep pushing your luck, we two sisters are not good-tempered people." Wen Ya said lightly and let go of Mrs. Zhang's wrist.
But the strange thing is that Mrs. Zhang's wrist is still white and tender, without any red marks at all.
"Xiaobing, let's go in first." Wen Ya looked back at the Jade Ice Scorpion and spoke.
"Okay~" The boss let her vent her anger, and Yu Bingxie ran towards Wen Ya happily.
However, Yu Bingxie thought about it and turned back to look at Mrs. Zhang who was standing there. It was not enough to just look at her, he also made a provocative face at her.
She should also be thankful that her boss is here, otherwise her strength would not be enough to fill her teeth.
At this moment, Madam Zhang paid no attention to the Jade Ice Scorpion's grimaces. Her gaze was fixed on Wen Ya's departing figure. The strength of this girl just now...
Mrs. Zhang subconsciously looked down at her wrist. She was in pain, but it was not noticeable on the surface. It was like the pain went straight to her bones.
She thought she was a person with very strong abilities, but just now she used all her strength and it was useless.
Mrs. Zhang paused for a moment and looked at the people around her who were whispering to her. She took out her smart device with trembling hands and dialed a number with a little anger.
"Xiao Si, go check someone for me."
After entering the venue, Yu Bingxie completely forgot about Madam Zhang's recent incident. Although the natural environment here didn't look as good as their island, there were many delicious foods here. There was a huge cake right at the entrance, and the faint aroma of cream could be smelled everywhere.
Yu Bingxie was attracted by the delicious food on the table. She had never eaten many of them before, so they were quite new to her.
Wen Ya was not attracted by the food. She looked around, trying to find a familiar figure.
Hasn't it come yet?
I haven’t found it for a long time, Wen Ya thought a little disappointedly.
She wanted to give him a small surprise, so she rejected Gu Xunli's invitation and used the organizer's invitation. The surroundings were too chaotic, with strangers everywhere. Wen Ya thought for a while and found a quiet corner to send a message to Gu Xunli.
【Have you arrived at the party yet? 】
After a while, Gu Xunli's message came. As long as he didn't have something urgent, he would reply to her messages almost immediately.
Already arrived
It turned out that he had already arrived.
Wen Ya looked up again, but still couldn't find Gu Xunli.
"Ah, boss, try this drink, it's quite delicious." After a while, Yu Bingxie walked to her side and brought her a very good-looking drink.
Wen Ya glanced down and said, "Drink less of this drink, it's easy to get drunk."
Yu Bingxie smiled and said, "Don't worry, Boss. I know what to do."
"This wine is fine, it's just fruit wine with a little alcohol." Just as Yu Bingxie finished speaking, a sweet girl's voice appeared beside them.
Wen Ya looked up and saw a girl in a white dress. She was dressed exquisitely and her long swan neck showed her elegance.
"Hello, I'm Xia Anan." Xia Anan saw Wen Ya and Yu Bingxie looking at her, smiled and introduced herself generously.
"Hello, I'm Wen Ya." Seeing Xia An'an extending her hand, Wen Ya politely shook Xia An'an's hand. Then the two of them exchanged business cards.
Wen Ya looked down at Xia An'an's business card. It was just as she'd imagined: this person was from the Xia Group. Anyone who could attend such an event probably had some connection to the Xia Group's CEO. If she was right, she was probably the CEO's daughter.
When Wen Ya looked down at her business card, Xia Anan also looked down at Wen Ya's business card. To be honest, she had been in their circle since she was a child, and she knew most of the young men and women from wealthy families, but this was her first time meeting Wen Ya.
In addition, Wen Ya and the little girl next to her were dressed very casually, which naturally made them very eye-catching in the crowd. But what attracted Xia Anan the most was that these two girls were so beautiful.
What Xia Anan likes most is to be sisters with good-looking people, so she came over and took the initiative to approach them.
"There's a show over there later. Do you want to go over and play with us?" Xia Anan smiled and made an invitation.
There was nothing to do here anyway, so since Xia Anan invited her, Wen Ya didn't refuse. She also smiled and said, "Okay."
It was already dark, and all over the resort was lit up with all kinds of beautiful lights. There were quite a few people this time, and to liven up the atmosphere, the organizers had invited various celebrities and performances.
Xia Anan led them along the road, where many people were drinking and chatting. Sometimes, when she ran into someone Xia Anan knew, she would introduce Wen Ya to them. In just half an hour, Wen Ya had a lot of business cards in her hands.
Of course, there were also those who deliberately came over to chat up Wen Ya because she was pretty. For some of them who had good character, Xia Anan didn't stop them from communicating, but for some of those with bad character, Xia Anan would just take Wen Ya away. Xia Anan also understood the temperaments of these playboys in the circle, and there was no need to interact with those scumbags.
Of course, because the Xia Family Group is also a large group in the interstellar space, generally no one would mess with Xia Anan. Those young masters who were frustrated did not dare to get angry with Xia Anan.
"Oh my God, you guys are so amazing. It's amazing that your company has become so successful after such a short time!" Xia Anan kept talking along the way, chatting with Wen Ya and the others. Since they chatted so much, she naturally knew the current situation of Wen Ya's company.
Originally, Xia Anan thought it was just a small company that she couldn't take seriously, but when she found out that they had only been started for less than a year, she was completely shocked.
"Oh oh oh, I suddenly remembered that I also bought fruits from your house. Those fruits were so delicious!" Xia Anan said excitedly with bright eyes.
Wen Ya looked at the excited beauty in front of her. Miss Xia didn't seem to have any bad intentions towards them. She had helped them a lot and was a friend worth making. Hearing her words, Wen Ya smiled and said, "If you like, I'll send you some next time when the fruit is ripe."
Xia Anan nodded happily: "Okay, okay!"
"There's a cocktail show over there, and they say a famous interstellar bartender has been invited. Let's go take a look." Xia Anan looked up and saw a place with lights on not far away. There seemed to be quite a few people there. She looked at Wen Ya and suggested.
Wen Ya did not refuse: "Okay."
There were a lot of people there, but Xia Anan still squeezed in with Wen Ya. The bartender had just prepared a nice cocktail.
"This wine looks fancy." Yu Bingxie looked at it for a long time, then said in a low voice.
Perhaps this sentence happened to be heard by the bartender not far away. Not long after the bartender finished mixing it, he divided it into three parts and handed it to them. Wen Ya lowered her eyes to take a look, then smiled and took it: "Thank you."
Yu Bingxie took it curiously and lowered his head to taste it. Although it looked fancy, it tasted quite good. Yu Bingxie held the small cup and gulped down a few mouthfuls before finishing it.
"You can't drink this wine like this, or you'll get drunk." Xia Anan couldn't help but remind Yu Bingxie when she saw him finish the cocktail so generously.
Jade Ice Scorpion patted her chest nonchalantly, then said, "It's okay, I can drink well."
Not long after Yu Bingxie finished speaking, she turned around and saw a group of people walking towards a place not far away. Yu Bingxie asked curiously, "What's going on? Where are they going?"
Xia Anan also looked in that direction, and then understood: "It's the dance floor of this banquet. I guess they are all going there to dance, and maybe even have a blind date."
Seeing that the two of them still looked a little confused, Xia Anan continued, "There are still quite a few young talents coming to this banquet, and many of them are unmarried. For example, the very popular Li Group CEO Li Zeyu, and the young mecha master..."
As Xia Anan was talking, she suddenly remembered something: "I also heard that the young master of the Gu family, General Gu Zhao's son, is here too. I heard that General Gu Zhao's son was in poor health and rarely attended such events, but it is said that the young master is quite handsome."
"Yeah." Wen Ya responded softly.
"I suddenly became interested. Yaya, do you want to go over and take a look together?" Xia Anan said with a smile.
"Okay." Wen Ya responded immediately.
Since there was a possibility that he was there, she had to go and see him.
She also wants to give her a surprise.
Xia Anan was a little surprised to hear Wen Ya agreed so readily. She smiled and touched Wen Ya's shoulder: "Oh, why are you so straightforward this time?"
Wen Ya just smiled and said nothing.
Just as she reached the edge of the dance floor, someone had already started dancing in the middle of the floor, but Wen Ya didn't recognize them. Wen Ya stood on tiptoe to take a look. She could already sense his presence; he should be there. Sure enough, Wen Ya saw Gu Xunli. He was at the other end of the dance floor, quite far away from her.
He was sitting at a small table, holding a white drink. He was very quiet, seemingly out of place in the noisy environment.
Xia Anan had just arrived when her friends called her away. Yu Bingxie wasn't interested in dancing, so she went off to play on her own. Wen Ya was a little worried that Yu Bingxie might get drunk after drinking so much, but she sensed a familiar presence following Yu Bingxie nearby, so she felt relieved and left her alone.
"Hello, are you alone?" Wen Ya looked at Gu Xunli for a while, and when she was about to go find him, a man suddenly appeared beside her. The man looked to be in his twenties, holding two glasses of red wine, and stopped Wen Ya.
Wen Ya didn't have much time to bother with a stranger right now. She nodded politely and prepared to walk forward. But the man next to her clearly didn't want her to leave. He reached out and even tried to pull her wrist. Wen Ya reacted quickly, leaning sideways and holding his hand.
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts." The man was confused, but he could still feel that his wrist was in great pain. He subconsciously cried out in pain.
"Xiao Ming, what are you doing? Bullying my sister?" The man was still in shock and pain when Xia Anan's voice came from not far away.
"It's Sister An An, how could I bully your sister? I just wanted to come over and have a drink with this beautiful lady." Xiao Ming gently shook his painful wrist where Xia An An couldn't see. It was really humiliating to be hit by a girl. Although his wrist hurt, he didn't show it.
"My sister doesn't like drinking, so you'd better leave." Xia Anan lowered her eyes to look at his hidden wrist, then spoke.
Xiao Ming pursed his lips: "Okay then."
It wasn't until Xiao Ming left that Xia Anan came to Wen Ya's side and looked down at her: "Are you okay just now?"
Wen Ya shook her head: "It's okay."
"That guy is a scumbag. Just don't talk to him." Xia Anan looked at Xiao Ming's back and said with a pout.
But before Wen Ya could speak, Xia Anan looked in the direction of Gu Xunli not far away, then turned her head to look at Wen Ya and said softly, "But I've just found out that the one over there is the young master of the Gu family."
Worried that Wen Ya didn't know about the Gu family, Xia Anan couldn't help but say, "You know General Gu Zhao, right?"
Wen Ya nodded: "I know."
"That's his son. He's really good-looking." Xia Anan couldn't help but glance at Gu Xunli again after she finished speaking. "It's a pity that he seems to have some problems with his eyes."
"It will be fine." Wen Ya lowered her eyes and spoke softly.
But the surrounding environment was too chaotic, and Xia Anan didn't hear Wen Ya's words clearly.
"I just heard that the daughter of the Sun Group's president went up to talk to him, but he ignored her. It seems like he is difficult to get along with." Xia Anan looked up again and said in a low voice.
After Xia Anan finished speaking, she looked up and said, "Hey, why did that woman go over there?"
Wen Ya also looked up in the direction of Gu Xunli. There was a girl in a black dress standing next to Gu Xunli, but because her back was facing Gu Xunli, Wen Ya could not see her face clearly.
She stood and talked to Gu Xunli for a while, then left with the wine glass.
"That's General Jiang's granddaughter. It seems like they have known each other since childhood and live quite close to each other." In just a short while, Xia Anan had found out some things.
"There are rumors out there now, and about the two of them, but I don't know if they're true or not." Xia Anan said, "But the second round of the dance is about to start, should we go?"
Wen Ya glanced in the direction of Gu Xunli, nodded, and said, "Okay."
There was a place to sit over there, and there were many tables with many exquisite and beautiful wines on them. Xia Anan just walked over and took out two glasses of fruit wine and handed one to Wen Ya.
"Ah, Yaya, look over there." Xia Anan took a sip of wine and then turned her head to look in the other direction. It was Gu Xunli's side. Another girl came over and tried to chat him up, but Gu Xunli said something that made the girl blush and then left looking a little angry.
But the girl seemed a little familiar. Wen Ya kept her eyes on the girl and saw her walk in front of a woman. When she saw the woman, Wen Ya remembered that she was the Madam Zhang she had met at the door before.
"So she is the daughter of Mrs. Zhang." Xia Anan shook her head and said with her head down.
After Xia Anan finished speaking, she took Wen Ya's hand again and said with a smile: "Let's go to the front and take a look. It seems that all the handsome guys are over there."
After Xia Anan finished speaking, she pulled Wen Ya towards Gu Xunli. Anyway, even if Xia Anan didn't pull her, Wen Ya would want to go over and take a look, so Wen Ya followed Xia Anan.
"Oh, oh, it's not that serious, don't cry." Before Wen Ya reached where Gu Xunli was, her attention was attracted by two people not far away. Mrs. Zhang's daughter was crying for some reason, and Mrs. Zhang spoke softly to persuade her beside her.
"Tsk, isn't he just a blind man? What's the big deal?"
Wen Ya hadn't intended to pay too much attention to them, but when she heard Mrs. Zhang's words, she paused and stopped abruptly. Xia Anan was also stunned for a moment, looking back at her with a bit of confusion.
"What's the point of being pretty but blind? There are plenty of good men in the future. Mom doesn't want you to marry a blind man."
Mrs. Zhang felt distressed when she saw her precious daughter crying. As she spoke, she reached out to wipe her daughter's tears.
"Ahhh! Who is it?!" But just as she finished her words, she was suddenly splashed with red wine. The wine stained her hair and clothes. Not only her, but also her daughter beside her was not spared. The two people who had been so bright and beautiful before suddenly became embarrassed.
"Who dares to splash water on me? You have the guts to do it but you don't have the guts to stand up!" Mrs. Zhang was furious and shouted at the people around her. Many people who didn't know them also looked at Mrs. Zhang.
"Ah!!" Just as Mrs. Zhang was still cursing, red wine suddenly appeared from nowhere and splashed towards Mrs. Zhang's mouth.
"Let's go." Wen Ya turned her head to look at Xia Anan who was stunned, gently pulled her, and spoke.
"Oh, okay." After being reminded by Wen Ya, Xia Anan finally recovered and followed Wen Ya out of here. Not until they were far away did Xia Anan turn his head to look at Wen Ya and asked softly, "Um, was that you just now?"
"Hmm?" Wen Ya looked at her.
"The person who just poured the red wine?" Xia Anan asked in a low voice with a little excitement.
Wen Ya didn't say anything, so Xia Anan took it as her tacit agreement: "Oh my god, this is too amazing!!"
Just now, she was so close to Wen Ya, but she didn't notice any fluctuation of her special abilities. She really didn't know how she did it.
"Can I know what your special ability is?" Xia Anan asked quietly.
"Ah, is it a natural ability?" Xia Anan was even more confused. She thought Wen Ya would have a space ability, but she never expected it to be a fire ability.
"Let's go." Wen Ya continued to move forward.
"You're not interested in Young Master Gu, are you?" Xia Anan quickly caught up with him. She narrowed her eyes slightly, lowered her head and whispered to Wen Ya.
"Yes, I like him." Wen Ya raised her head and glanced in the direction of Gu Xunli. Her eyes were slightly curved, but she did not deny it.
Xia Anan, who was watching the fun, touched Wen Ya's shoulder with hers and said with a smile, "The second round of dancing is about to start. Do you want to invite them?"
Wen Ya thought about it for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
Xia Anan looked at Wen Ya in confusion. She didn't expect that she was actually planning to go find Gu Xunli. She quickly walked to Wen Ya's side and whispered, "Ah, I was just kidding. Are you really going?"
