The elevator door slowly opened, and two men in formal attire walked out of the elevator, scanning the venue in front of them.
"Baili Group is really a big deal." The ninth seat looked at the spacious and luxurious venue and said coldly.
Shen Qingzhu did not answer. He turned his head silently and looked around. His eyes paused for a moment on the figures standing by the window in the distance. He turned around silently and turned his back to them.
When he entered the main building, he had already taken off his mask. Wearing a mask in this venue made it easier to attract others' attention. Although his appearance is very different now from two years ago, he looks even more handsome.
He is calm and mature, but people who are familiar with him can still easily recognize him.
He originally thought that Baili Pangpang was the only one who needed to hide at this venue, but he never expected that Lin Qiye and the others were also here.
"I'm going to walk around and get familiar with the place." After Shen Qingzhu finished speaking, he walked straight away from Lin Qiye and others.
He knew Lin Qiye's mental perception ability. If he had a thought and used his mental power to scan the surroundings, he would definitely find his presence... So he had to ensure that he kept enough distance between Lin Qiye and would not be exposed.
identity.
The ninth seater nodded, and then walked around the venue casually, looking at the guests who came here from time to time, not knowing what he was thinking.
By the window.
Lin Qiye played with the wine glass in his hand boredly, looked up at the time on the wall, and there was doubt in his eyes.
"The time has come, why haven't Baili Pangpang and the others shown up yet?"
"He is a careless person. Being late is not a rare thing." Cao Yuan sighed.
While several people were chatting, a solemn middle-aged man with white temples wearing a suit slowly walked out of the venue. As soon as he appeared, he immediately attracted the attention of everyone around him.
Representatives of other groups or families all gathered around him with smiles and said hello one by one, with very familiar expressions.
"That's Baili Xin, the chairman of Baili Group?" Cao Yuan looked at him carefully for a moment, with a strange expression on his face, "It doesn't look like Baili Pangpang..."
An Qingyu pondered for a moment, "Is it a genetic mutation?"
"..."
Lin Qiye was also looking at this man. At the same time, Baili Xin in the crowd seemed to have noticed them and nodded with a smile.
Lin Qiye responded with a polite smile.
After Bailixin greeted many guests, he slowly walked to the center of the venue, where there was a white high platform used for playing classical music. He held a glass of wine in his hand and walked up the steps calmly.
Every step is as steady as a rock.
"Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedule to attend this birthday banquet." Bai Lixin's voice was low and magnetic. He always had a smile on his lips, and his deep eyes scanned the faces of the many guests in the audience.
.
"I, Baili Xin, started from scratch, and it took me thirty-five years to finally develop Baili Group to where it is now..."
Bai Lixin began the speech he had prepared long ago, telling the story of how he counterattacked step by step from a poor boy to become the richest man in Great Xia. This journey full of hardships and ups and downs made some of the younger guests have tears in their eyes and looked at
Bai Lixin's eyes were filled with admiration.
A specially invited media member sat attentively in the audience and quickly wrote something on his notebook. Because Baili Group stipulates that modern video and audio equipment cannot be used, this reporter could only write quickly for fear of
Miss or miss a single word.
Of course, Lin Qiye and others were not interested in hearing such business legends. Their eyes had been searching around Baili Xin, trying to find Baili Pangpang's figure.
"...Now, it's time for me to retire behind the scenes and enjoy my old age. Next, Baili Group will be led by a young man who is better than me. He has rigorous logical thinking and pioneering business vision.
, and the bumpy and rich experience...
He is my son, Baili Tuming, the designated heir of Baili Group."
Hearing this sentence, Lin Qiye and others' expressions suddenly became strange.
Thorough logical thinking?
Pioneering business vision?
A rough and rich experience?
Except that the last experience was indeed rough and rich, the first two seemed to have nothing to do with him, right?
"As expected of Baili Fatty's father, his words are so...artistic." Lin Qiye couldn't help but complain.
The other guests also started chatting with each other, their eyes full of curiosity.
"I have heard of Baili Tuming's name a long time ago, but I have never had the chance to see him..."
"Isn't that right? A few years ago, I wanted to meet this young man from the Baili family, but I was rejected. He seemed to be very busy."
"But how come I heard that this young master Baili is just a rich second generation who is just waiting to die? Is it really as powerful as Senior Baili Xin said?"
"I only know that Baili Group has an adopted son, Baili Jing, who is really talented. He has worked his way up from the bottom of Baili Group to the top. He has a good reputation within Baili Group. It is said that there are many
Followers...what a pity."
"I have had business cooperation with Baili Jing. He is indeed a wizard. I think that Baili Jing is more suitable to be the successor than the Baili Tuming who has never appeared."
"An adopted son is an adopted son after all, and there is a difference between him and his biological son."
"..."
In the corner, Wei Xiuming's hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, he let out a long sigh, turned his back, and turned to look at the scenery outside the window.
Looking at the people talking about each other below, Bai Lixin kept a smile on her face and continued, "Now, please invite Quanzi to come over and say hello to everyone..."
He reached out and waved lightly towards the back of the venue, and a young man in a black suit walked out of the crowd, straightened his collar with his hands, raised the corners of his mouth, and walked towards the high platform with a smile.
The moment they saw him, many guests present frowned and their eyes were full of confusion.
"No, I've seen him before. Isn't he the adopted son of the Baili family, Baili Jing?"
"Yes, I have worked with him before. Why did he become Baili Tuming again?"
"Wait, could it be..."
"..."
Baili Jing stepped onto the steps of the high platform and walked slowly to Baili Xin's side. The lenses of his gold glasses reflected the pale light. He bowed slightly and said politely:
"Hello everyone, please allow me to introduce myself.
Maybe many people are familiar with me, yes, I am Baili Jing.
Or, you can also call my other identity...
I am the only son of Baili Xin, the chairman of Baili Group, and the sole heir to Baili Group... Baili Tu Ming."
As soon as the words fell, the entire venue fell into dead silence.
