As soon as Wan Xue finished speaking, the entire venue was in an uproar!
They could see that the two sisters had a close relationship with Long Yi, but they didn't expect Wan Xue to be willing to publicly admit that she was the one who took the initiative to pursue Long Yi.
Gao Qihang's face turned paler than lime when he heard this, and he felt as if his heart skipped a beat. Then he said angrily:
"You stinky bitch, you came from a godforsaken place like Jiangzhou and acted like a princess. I've been pursuing you for five years and you ignored me. What's so good about this poor guy that makes him worth your while?"
"Shut up!" Liao Jianying's face darkened when he heard this. He looked at Gao Qihang with a look of disappointment and said angrily:
"You really disappoint me. If it weren't for the fact that your father and I are old comrades, I would have thrown you out long ago. How could I give you the opportunity to speak rudely?"
Gao Qihang snorted coldly, still looking unconvinced and arrogant.
Liao Jianying continued, "Even someone as easygoing as Mr. Long has been irritated by you. This shows how lawless you are in the army!"
Gao Qihang simply ignored the reprimand, turned around and stared at Long Yi intently, sneering, "So what if I'm lawless? I have the qualifications to be lawless.
I win so many trophies in every military competition and have made countless military achievements. Don’t I have more qualifications to be more arrogant than you?
While I'm fighting for my country, low-level scum like you are probably still worrying about your livelihood, hahahaha!"
After saying this, he laughed out loud with smugness, and the piercing smile made the disgust on Wan Xue's face even stronger.
There was silence in Long Yi's eyes. This guy actually dared to show off his military achievements in front of him. If someone didn't know, they would think that this celebration banquet was held for him.
Everyone also had a look of gloating on their faces. Comparing military achievements with the God of Killing in the Yandu Military Region was like hitting a rock with an egg, and overestimating one's own abilities.
Not to mention that Long Yi had no military background, even among the younger generation of the Yandu Military Region, few could compare to Gao Qihang in terms of military achievements alone.
A sneer appeared on Long Yi's lips, but he didn't refute. He just looked at Gao Qihang steadily.
Gao Qihang saw that Long Yi was silent for a long time, and thought that it was because of his sharp words that the other party could not refute him, so he said more proudly:
"Boy, you're not worth my traveling all the way from Yandu to the capital to deal with you. The more important purpose of my trip is to meet the heroes of Dragon Country, the protagonists of this celebration banquet."
A look of longing appeared on his face, and he continued, "I have heard from far away in the Yandu Military Region that a hero emerged from the Beijing Military Region. He single-handedly saved the entire city from collapse in an international martial arts competition!
He single-handedly led his team to win the championship with a score far exceeding the second place, and even destroyed the enemy country's team with just a few tricks!
He and I are both military masters of the younger generation, so why wouldn't I come and get to know him?"
After saying that, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Long Yi, his eyes full of provocation.
The implication is obvious. I came here to get acquainted with the protagonist of the celebration banquet, and dealing with you is just a matter of convenience.
Long Yi laughed inwardly. Wasn't he the military god this guy was talking about? He wondered what Gao Qihang's expression would be like when he knew the truth?
He smiled and said, "Mr. Gao may not be good at other things, but he has good vision. I want to get to know such a hero."
"Are you worthy? I guess people don't even bother to look you in the eye. Such a hero cannot be kept in the capital. He will definitely make a name for himself in the military district of Yandu in the future!" Gao Qihang said arrogantly.
In his opinion, he and the protagonist of this celebration banquet were of the same kind of people, while Long Yi was just a scum struggling at the bottom of society.
Wan Xue, who was standing by, gently tugged at the corner of Long Yi's clothes and said softly, "Brother Yi, since we have proven our innocence, there is no need to continue to tangle with this mad dog."
A gleam of light flashed in Li Chao and Chen Li's eyes. Gao Qihang was indeed the eldest son of Yandu. With just one sentence, he turned the passive situation into the active one and gained the upper hand.
Now, not only did he belittle Long Yi, but he also invisibly brought him closer to the protagonist of this celebration banquet.
"Speaking of which, the scale of this Beijing celebration banquet is unprecedentedly grand. I wonder who will be the main character?"
"Young Master Gao is truly a master of tactics. If the protagonist of this celebration banquet can become friends with him, that kid surnamed Long will be completely at a disadvantage."
"Ah, that Long guy is such a hopeless case. Even with Miss Qi and Commander Liao backing him up, they can't even compare to Gao Qihang with just two words."
Hearing the surrounding discussions in his favor, Gao Qihang felt even more proud, but on the surface he pretended to be calm and said calmly:
"Mr. Long, let's forget about today's matter. The main character of the Beijing Celebration Banquet will be on stage in ten minutes. I'll let you go for now."
After he finished speaking, he snorted coldly, left angrily, and walked to the right side of the screen.
Liao Jianying looked at his departing figure with a strange look in his eyes and said angrily, "This kid is getting more and more arrogant. He didn't even say hello before leaving. Does he even take me seriously?"
He turned to face Long Yi and asked doubtfully, "Brother Long, why don't you just tell him that you are the star of this celebration banquet, so as to dampen his arrogance."
Long Yi smiled and said calmly: "That would be a lot less interesting. Since he wants to meet a hero so much, I will give him a chance."
As Gao Qihang left, the crowd dispersed like a tide.
After all, the protagonists of the celebration banquet are about to appear. If you arrive late and cannot get a front seat, you will lose the opportunity to make friends with the heroes of Dragon Country in vain.
When Qi Ke heard what the two were saying, his jaw dropped in surprise. He blurted out, "Mr. Long, you are the protagonist of this celebration banquet?"
Long Yi stood with his hands behind his back, without making any comment.
Qi Ke figured it out after a moment. Among the younger generation, only Long Yi could achieve such impressive results in an international martial arts competition.
At this time, there were less than three minutes left until nine o'clock, and the right side of the screen was already crowded with people, all waiting to see the true face of the hero of the Dragon Kingdom.
The female host was wearing a white cheongsam and high heels. Her tall and proud figure was perfectly outlined by the cheongsam that was slit to the thigh.
After glancing around, she said crisply, "Welcome all guests to this celebration banquet. Our hero will be on stage soon.
He led his team to victory in the international martial arts competition and struck down the arrogance of the hostile nation. He is a true hero!"
There was a burst of applause from the audience, and everyone cheered.
"This military district hero is quite mysterious. He hasn't appeared yet."
"I'm really looking forward to it. I don't know what the hero of Dragon Country will look like this time. I hope he'll be super handsome." A rich and beautiful girl said with stars in her eyes.
"I'm not sure if he's handsome, but his family must be very well-connected. To be able to achieve such impressive results in his 20s is something that ordinary children from aristocratic families can't do."
