Chapter 104: The Monkey King Arrives
"Why is your surname Gu again?"
Li Ran asked, somewhat surprised, as he had been dealing with the ancient clan more and more recently.
She now suspected that the clan leader had specially arranged someone to protect her.
"Mr. Gu has made great contributions to the country. If you go there tonight, you must not act rudely, fight, or curse...it would be bad if you disrupt Mr. Gu's birthday party. Do you understand?"
Zhou Chenshen taught her patiently step by step.
Otherwise, once this ancestor gets angry, it will be difficult to control himself.
Although he can handle it if something really happens, it's better to avoid trouble if possible!
"Okay, I won't get angry, I won't fight, I won't curse... But what if someone comes to bother me? Should I put up with it?"
Li Ran said it bluntly in advance that this kind of thing is very likely to happen.
"I can't bear it. If someone doesn't know how to live or die, then don't worry about his life or death. When the time comes, Second Brother will take care of it."
"good!"
Hearing this, Li Ran was happy.
The birthday banquet was not the Hongmen Banquet. Zhou Chenshen prepared a gift in advance, which was a particularly famous painting of rivers and mountains.
Whether in terms of the artistic conception or the brushwork, this painting of rivers and mountains is of top quality.
"Second brother, as your female companion, what should I be aware of? Will there be any social engagements? I have a cold personality and am not suited to this. While you're dealing with the guests, can I just find a place to eat?"
The fact that Li Ran could act well-behaved in front of Zhou Chenshen showed that he was able to control his temper.
But when there are too many people, I just don’t bother to deal with them.
"Okay. After introducing Mr. Gu to you, go eat. Remember, don't run around."
"I know!"
Li Ran agreed obediently.
At eight o'clock tonight, the ancient garden is brightly lit and visitors are flocking in.
"Master Zhou Er, you are finally here. Please come in. The old man has been waiting for you for a long time."
There was someone standing at the door to greet the visitor. A middle-aged man in a well-tailored suit said with a smile on his face. Zhou Chenshen nodded, "Thank you."
He turned around and introduced Li Ran: "My younger sister, Li Ran, will be my female companion for the time being."
Then he introduced the middle-aged man to Li Ran: "Bai Ke, Mr. Gu Lao's adopted son."
Bai Ke: "Miss Li, I've long heard of your name. Seeing you today, I can see you're truly extraordinary."
In fact, he had no idea who this was.
However, the people brought by Zhou Chenshen should not be underestimated.
Li Ran was very sensitive to human nature, and knew at a glance that this Bai Ke was all about face, so he nodded: "Mr. Bai."
I have an inexplicable aversion to adopted sons and the like.
"Mr. Zhou Er, Miss Li, please come in first. Some of my younger brothers haven't come yet, so I'll wait a little longer." Bai Ke said politely. Zhou Chenshen nodded and walked in with Li Ran.
At first glance, I was dazzled by the men and women coming and going in the garden.
There were several bonfires lit, and the lawn was filled with all kinds of handsome men and beautiful women, some chatting and laughing, some holding hands, and some gossiping in groups of three or four.
Li Ran felt that she might not be suitable for this scene.
"Second brother, you are busy, I will just take a walk."
She took a fancy to a long table placed under a lamp on one side. On the table were cakes, fruits, drinks, and milk tea... She walked over.
She ran fast and took big steps, and her skirt was too narrow, which accidentally affected her performance. She staggered forward and almost fell.
But she had such agility that the moment her face hit the ground, she supported herself with one hand, turned over, and stood up beautifully.
brush!
Everyone in the audience looked over, as if they had seen an alien creature, and the scene suddenly fell silent.
Li Ran: ...
She didn't mean it.
Ignoring all the gazes, he walked towards the long table under the lamp.
"Hey, who is this? He looks so unfamiliar. The birthday banquet hasn't even started yet, but already there's an opening act. Which noble family brought the monkey trainer here?"
Someone covered his mouth and said in a sarcastic tone that the voice sounded familiar.
