After finishing our business.
The two then started chatting again.
Gao Yan casually asked, "Brother Junlai, how's your sister doing?"
She's very angry!
Wu Junlai said, "I reckon Yin Lushi and his gang are in big trouble!"
"Why?"
Gao Yan asked.
Wu Junlai said helplessly, "Who told those guys to be so big-mouthed and spread what happened last night? My sister is such a proud person, and now that she's lost face, she'll definitely teach them a lesson!"
It was 3 p.m. that day.
Liu Jingwen returned to the hotel where Gao Yan was staying and took away eleven bottles of kidney-tonifying medicinal wine.
He left not long ago.
Wu Junlai also took away one hundred bottles.
Five o'clock in the afternoon.
Liu Hanyi drove over, and then Gao Yan went to the Liu family's old house.
The Liu family's old house is very large; it is a five-courtyard siheyuan (traditional courtyard house).
However, Mr. Liu did not invite many people to this birthday banquet.
Because of his special status, it was not appropriate to hold a grand celebration. Therefore, his former subordinates only sent birthday gifts through intermediaries, and did not attend in person.
Therefore, apart from the entire Liu family.
The other guests occupied four tables.
The Wu family also sent a representative, but it was neither Wu Chaoyue nor Wu Jun.
Wu Chaoyue had just suffered a setback at Gao Yan's hands last night, so naturally she didn't want to see him again.
As for Wu Junlai, although he has turned from enemy to friend with Gao Yan, it would still be rather awkward for him to appear here.
Although Mr. Liu was over seventy years old, he was dressed in a Tang suit, with a ruddy complexion and looked to be in very good spirits.
During the meal, he said a few words and then asked everyone to start eating.
Everyone then ate quietly, appearing somewhat cautious.
More than ten minutes passed.
Grandpa Liu raised his glass and toasted everyone.
Then, the three brothers, Liu Shuwen, Liu Jianwen, and Liu Jingwen, along with two sons-in-law from the Liu family, went to each table to offer a toast.
Then came the time for the younger generation to offer toasts.
First, Liu Shuwen's two sons, along with their wives and girlfriends, toasted the old man and said auspicious words.
There was no birthday gift presentation, but Gao Yan's gift was two bottles of medicinal wine, which had already been sent in advance.
"Xiao Gao, it's our turn!"
After Liu Hanyi's two cousins finished toasting, Liu Hanyi whispered to Gao Yan.
So the two of them got up, took their wine glasses, and headed towards the old man's table.
Seeing this scene.
Unaware of the situation, someone whispered, "Wasn't it said that the Liu family was going to form a marriage alliance with the Wu family? It doesn't seem like Wu Jun is coming, does it?"
"Grandpa, this is Gao Yan, my boyfriend. We've come to toast you!"
Liu Hanyi introduced with a smile.
When Grandpa Liu turned his gaze towards him, Gao Yan quickly smiled and said, "Hello Grandpa Liu, I am Gao Yan. I wish you a happy birthday and a long and healthy life!"
"good!"
A smile appeared on Old Master Liu's face. He raised his glass to Gao Yan and Liu Hanyi from afar, and then drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
Seeing this, those who didn't know the inside story were shocked again. Before, even when his two grandsons offered him a toast, Grandpa Liu only took a sip. Now, when his granddaughter brought her boyfriend to offer him a toast, Grandpa Liu actually drank it all in one gulp.
Doesn't this mean that Grandpa Liu is quite satisfied with this future son-in-law?
For a moment, they looked at Gao Yan with more envy. As the son-in-law of the Liu family, he would surely have a smooth career if he went into politics, and if he went into business, he would have a powerful backer.
I just don't know who this young man named Gao Yan is.
The toasting ceremony ended quickly.
After all, not everyone is qualified to toast Old Master Liu.
After the toasting ceremony, Mr. Liu left the table.
The atmosphere at the scene became a bit more lively.
"I've heard you're a martial artist?"
Suddenly, a tall, handsome young man came to Gao Yan's side with a cup in his hand.
"My name is Chen Yunlong, and I'm also a martial artist. Would you like to spar with me sometime?"
"Of course, of course!"
Gao Yan's eyes were somewhat strange, because the guy in front of him was only at the peak of Ming Jin, and a peak Ming Jin person actually wanted to spar with him.
"Shall we set a time?"
Chen Yunlong continued.
"Are you sure you want to spar with me?" Gao Yan finally couldn't help but ask.
"right!"
Chen Yunlong nodded seriously.
Gao Yan's expression grew increasingly strange. He nodded and said, "That works too. Let's add each other on WeChat and discuss our sparring on WeChat!"
"Great job! I toast you!"
After having a drink with Gao Yan, Chen Yunlong left without lingering.
Liu Hanyi whispered to Gao Yan, "This Chen Yunlong is from the Chen family. His grandfather is Chen Guobang, who was an old comrade-in-arms of my grandfather."
Chen Yunlong is an anomaly in the Chen family. He's loved martial arts since childhood and has no interest in politics or business. He's also quite arrogant. I suspect he doubts your skills, which is why he challenged you to a duel. When you fight, go easy on him and don't hurt him!
"So that's how it is!"
Gao Yan suddenly realized that the other party did not believe he was at the peak of the Transformation Realm, which was why they challenged him to a duel.
However, Chen Yunlong was right; he was indeed not at the peak of the Transformation Realm, but at the late stage of the Core Formation Realm.
The birthday banquet has ended.
Gao Yan then went with Liu Hanyi to visit her parents.
Gao Yan originally thought that a high-ranking official like Liu Jianwen would be serious and reserved, and would like to speak in a sarcastic or cryptic manner.
Unexpectedly, the other party turned out to be a rather humorous and handsome older man, which was different from what Gao Yan had imagined.
In addition, Liu Hanyi's mother was quite enthusiastic about Gao Yan, and seemed quite satisfied with him as her future son-in-law.
