Chapter 71 Welcome Banquet
When the fireworks exploded in the silent night sky, they blossomed into colorful beauty. The ever-changing fireworks were breathtakingly beautiful. Huge fireworks bloomed in the sky, and petals fell like rain.
In the ancient city, fireworks are the highest treatment to welcome distinguished guests. Nangong Yan looked at the fireworks and introduced Zhan Rongxuan to various things in the ancient city.
He really loves the ancient city. Although it is not as prosperous as the imperial capital, it is a place favored by God. It is not only rich in gold and jade resources, but also has beautiful natural scenery.
Mu Jies looked at Zhan Rongxuan in front of him. He had rolled up the cuffs of his black shirt, revealing a faint outline of muscles. His hair was jet black and his face was half-sunk in the shadows. His profile was sharp and distinct, with long black eyelashes drooping down, a straight nose and thin lips. He was incredibly handsome. The ring on his little finger as he held the wine glass was extremely eye-catching, and the black and gold bracelet on his well-textured wrist glowed faintly.
Mu Jies picked up a glass of wine and poured it into his mouth, his eyes full of disdain. He was just a good-looking young man. He really didn't know why his cousin cared about him so much.
Zhan Rongxuan was toasting with Nangong Yan here, and was also keeping an eye on Mu Jies' every move. The chief said that Mu Jies was the highest person in charge of the dark industry chain in the ancient city, and now it was unknown whether Nangong Yan was involved in it.
At this time, Nangong Ying arrived late. She was wearing a simple white dress, her long hair was loosely tied up, with two slightly curly strands hanging down. Her skin was white and her eyes were as bright as the sea. She was not wearing any jewelry, but she looked even more pure, fresh and naturally beautiful.
She walked straight to Zhan Rongxuan and sat down. Nangong Yan saw a look of joy on her face. You know, his sister had a natural aversion to men and would not allow strange men to get close to her. She always said that men smelled bad, but he didn't expect that Zhan Rongxuan was an exception.
Nangong Yan was secretly delighted. It seemed that making this marriage happen would be much easier than he had imagined.
Zhan Rongxuan felt that Nangong Ying beside him was looking at him as usual, which made him feel annoyed.
Neither she nor the people around her seemed to think that her behavior was rude. They might even think that she looked innocent and cute.
If Xu Yueyao were here, she would definitely stand in front of him and say some weird words in a sarcastic tone. Thinking of Xu Yueyao, he was slightly stunned, his eyes emitting a tenderness and tenderness that he himself was not even aware of.
Naturally, all this did not escape Nangong Ying's eyes. She was slightly stunned and sensitively felt that he was thinking about someone else just now. Who was it that deserved such an expression? She narrowed her eyes and found things a little interesting.
"Mr. Zhan, I toast to you," Nangong Ying said, holding up the wine glass.
"Miss Nangong, please." Zhan Rongxuan picked up the wine glass, raised it lightly, brought it to his lips and took a sip.
Nangong Yan smiled and said, "Our names are too unfamiliar, how about we just call each other by our first names?"
"Is that so? Then I will call you Brother Rongxuan and you can call me Ying'er," Nangong Ying looked at Zhan Rongxuan, smiled and leaned forward, approaching him.
Zhan Rongxuan subconsciously moved back, and seeing the teasing in Nangong Ying's eyes, he smiled politely and nodded.
"I heard that Young Master Zhan was in the army before, I wonder which army? Mu Jiesi picked up the wine glass, put it to his lips, put his tongue against his cheekbone, and looked nonchalant.
"Cousin," Nangong Ying wanted to speak up to stop him. Zhan Rongxuan was a very cunning man, and she was afraid that her cousin would underestimate the enemy.
"What are you doing? You haven't even gotten married yet and you're already protecting her." Mu Jies had been unhappy for a long time, and he was venting his anger through this.
The scene was awkward for a while, especially for Nangong Ying, whose eyes turned slightly red. She had never suffered such an injustice before. She glared at him fiercely, then stood up and left.
"Jace, didn't you say you haven't seen my mother for a long time? She hasn't rested yet, so you should go see her." Nangong Yan sent him away.
Mu Jies looked into his cousin's eyes, which were full of warnings, and he stood up: "I'll go see my aunt." After saying that, he turned and left.
"Sorry," Nangong Yan personally poured a glass of wine for Zhan Rongxuan. Picking up the wine glasses, the two of them clinked their glasses together and drank them all in one gulp.
“It doesn’t matter. I heard that the Mu family’s businesses are extensive, which shows that Mr. Mu is also talented and capable.
"Since Jace took over the Mu family from his uncle, the business has indeed been getting better and better. He is a good person in every way, except that he speaks a little too bluntly, sorry." Nangong Yan had wanted to take this opportunity to bring up the matter of marriage, but after thinking about it, he felt that the timing was not right.
"Actually, I came here to do a favor and I would like to ask you for help, Ayan."
"Oh, please go ahead."
"My friend who lives abroad has a daughter with a serious heart disease who needs a heart transplant. I heard that a suitable heart can be purchased in the ancient city. Please help me find out, Ayan.
Zhan Rongxuan turned around and took the file bag handed to him by Zhan Feng and handed it to him, "This is the information of my friend's daughter. The heart he hopes to find should be around 18 years old, just like her daughter."
Nangong Yan looked at the file bag and did not take it. He frowned at him and said, "Rong Xuan, private organ trading is illegal. Besides, there is no such place in our ancient city."
Zhan Rongxuan frowned slightly: "Ayan, my friend said that as long as the heart is suitable, you can name any price."
Nangong Yan was puzzled, "Rong Xuan, you may have heard some rumors, but they are not credible. There is absolutely no such place in our ancient city."
Zhan Rongxuan lowered his head and turned the wine glass, "I heard that the third young lady of the Feng family in the imperial capital bought a heart here, took it abroad and had it replaced, and has now returned to the country. The Feng family, the one you know, is Feng Linghan's youngest daughter."
"You mean her heart was bought here in our ancient city?" Nangong Yan asked with a frown.
"Yes, she is 15 years old this year, and the heart he bought is also 15 years old. It is a perfect fit, as if it was specially prepared for him. This is no secret in the capital.
Nangong Yan looked at him and didn't say anything for a long time. If this was true, who would have done it? Apart from the Nangong family, there is the Mu family in the ancient city. Could it be Mu Jiesi? When Nangong Yan thought of this, he felt uneasy. He was looking for death.
Zhan Rongxuan noticed the change in Nangong Yan. It seemed that Nangong Yan was not involved in this matter and was not aware of it.
"Sorry, Rong Xuan, I can't help you." Nangong Yan was extremely confused at this time.
"It's okay, I'll let my friend find out slowly." Zhan Rongxuan put the information away.
"Wait, can I see this document?" Nangong Yan subconsciously pushed his glasses.
"Of course," Zhan Rongxuan handed him the file bag again.
Nangong Yan opened the file bag and saw that it was a detailed examination report of a girl. He repacked the information. He handed it to Zhan Rongxuan, "I'm sorry I couldn't help you."
"It's okay," Zhan Rongxuan raised his glass to him, and they continued drinking, but their moods had already changed.
