"Ah, so you all know it? Alas, I couldn't hide it after all!"
Seeing the envious and adoring eyes of the people around him, although Cao Ning didn't know who was so considerate, he accepted it calmly.
After all, he rushed here in a hurry this time but didn't even prepare a decent gift, which is really unjustifiable.
Although Cancer doesn't know who sent it now, since others have this heart, why should he reject it?
"Okay, I originally wanted to give everyone a surprise. In this case... let's stop pretending and let's show off."
Cao Ning opened his arms excitedly, raised his head at a 45-degree angle, and solemnly announced: "Yes, this is the birthday gift I prepared for my father-in-law. You can cheer as much as you want!"
"..."
Seeing that Cao Ning had relapsed into his old habit, Xia Shihan frowned and sighed.
Just as he was about to ask him to keep a low profile, a security guard ran over to the door.
"Miss, a group of reporters have come outside to set up a scene in our banquet hall. It is said that the directors' longevity banquet will be broadcast live."
"Did you arrange this too?"
Xia Shihan subconsciously looked at Cao Ning and frowned: "Cao Ning, I know you want to take this opportunity to show off your birthday, but isn't this too exaggerated?"
As the richest man in Jiangning, Xia Guoan's industries have a vital influence on the entire Southeast Continent.
The news media were naturally very interested in such a wealthy businessman who stomped his feet and made the earth shake when he hosted a banquet for distinguished guests.
"What, a reporter? Oh, yes, yes, I invited you too!"
Cao Ning was confused by what he said, but since the bullshit has been blown to this point, what should come next.
"Hey, Shihan, what you said is wrong!"
Cao Ning smiled and walked around behind Xia Shihan, put his hands on her shoulders and kneaded her gently, then put Tiannuan close to her ear.
"Shihan, think about it, this old man is so old, how many times can he still be famous? We, as juniors, can't be careless. Since there are ready-made resources here, if we don't use them, it will be in vain."
"That's true, but... um??? What did you just call me dad?"
Xia Shihan suddenly turned around and stared at him coldly.
Sure enough, men are all big pigs, and even their titles have become so casual after divorce.
"I...I didn't mean that!"
Cao Ning's heart trembled when he saw it, and he quickly explained with a smile: "Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, definitely a slip of the tongue, dad, dad, our dad can do it!"
"Tch, you're talking about it as if it's rare!"
Xia Shihan rolled her lips and rolled her eyes at Cao Ning, then straightened her body and walked out.
"Let's go. Since they are here to show their respect, we, as the masters, have to give them some face."
After saying that, Xia Shihan left first, leaving Cao Ning alone standing there scratching his head in depression.
"Let me go, who is this? Why have reporters been summoned to me? Are you going to hold a press conference?"
"Hey, hey, Shihan, wait for me!"
...
Just when Cao Ning was busy, Jiangning Luosonggang Pier was as quiet as ever.
A few wild ducks flapped their wings happily in the reed marsh, and after the river breeze blew by, the only sound left in the entire harbor was the sound of waves lapping along the shore.
I don’t know when it was, but there was a blue skirt on the big warehouse on the shore.
The man had beautiful facial features, his complexion was as white as snow, there was not a single blemish on his delicate face, and his skin was as smooth as a baby's.
It was such a beautiful woman who had conquered the country, but at this moment she was staring at the river with her slightly cold eyes.
"How long do we have to wait?"
Shi Xiaoxiao glanced coldly at the two thin figures beside him.
Benboba trembled and subconsciously pushed the people around him: "Baboba, is the master asking you something?"
"Nonsense, the master is obviously asking you!" Ba Bo Ben immediately took two steps back.
"Asking you, don't bite randomly, it has nothing to do with me!"
"you..."
"Okay, can any of you two tell me when the so-called Crab General you are talking about will come?"
Shi Xiaoxiao immediately interrupted the argument between the two and asked coldly with cold eyes.
After learning that Mo'ang, the fourth son of the dragon, had also sent a group of water tribesmen, Shi Xiaoxiao asked Benbo Ba to make an appointment to meet him, but after waiting and waiting, he was nowhere to be seen.
"Master, um... Crab Nine Claws clearly promised to come to meet and discuss countermeasures, but I really don't know why it broke the promise again." Ben Boba lowered his head and explained.
Shi Xiaoxiao glanced at it, and it didn't look like he was lying.
"That's strange. Could it be that it discovered something unusual and changed its mind temporarily?" Shi Xiaoxiao muttered.
"That's possible!"
At this time Ba Bo Ben stood up and explained.
"Master, you don't know something. When we were in the East China Sea, Crab Nine Claws were particularly greedy. They often missed important things because of eating. I wanted to go ashore this time, but I was afraid that I would find something delicious again, so I was delayed."
"Yes, yes, Ba Bo Ben's analysis is very accurate. Last time I saw him so anxious that he even ate his family members. He is really a real foodie."
"Then wait a little longer?"
Shi Xiaoxiao didn't want to make this trip in vain. If he could get rid of this annoying crab easily, he would save a lot of trouble in the future.
"Then...hey, master, look quickly, there is something strange on the river!"
Just when Shi Xiaoxiao was hesitant, Ba Bo Ben suddenly pointed towards the roaring river.
Shi Xiaoxiao looked in the direction of her finger and saw a white jellyfish floating on the surface of the river.
"It really is!"
Sensing something strange, Shi Xiaoxiao immediately said: "You two go and fish out that jellyfish for me right away!"
"yes!"
After feeling aggrieved for a long time, the two brothers immediately jumped into the water and fished out the jellyfish floating on the river surface in a short time.
When they were dragged ashore, they discovered that the jellyfish was actually a deep-sea creature that had followed them.
Runboba picked up the jellyfish and found two big mouths.
"Golba, wake up, aren't you dead? Why are you alive again?"
The dying Gorba was slapped twice for no reason and actually opened his eyes.
"Who, who smokes? I'm already dead, how can I still smoke...ah, old ancestor, it's great, I, I can still see you!" Gorba choked.
"Get off and drive!"
Babo Ben pushed Babo Ben away and came closer: "Gorba, let me ask you, what are the injuries on your body? Aren't your mother-in-laws contaminated? Why are you covered with injuries?"
"Hey, yes, what's the injury on your body?"
Only then did Ben Bo Ba realize that the little jellyfish was covered with scars, which were not caused by pollution at all.
"Yes Yes..."
Gorba gasped and explained: "We were ambushed by the Soul Army, and they wounded me."
"Soul Army?"
Ba Bo Ben muttered and immediately reacted: "Oh, it's the kid! Wait... what did you mean by us just now? Is there anyone else who survived besides you?"
"No, no more!"
Gorba took two deep breaths and added: "After I separated from you, I met the Crab General, who saved me. However, we were ambushed not long after, and the Crab General was also killed by them.
Even the body was put into a foam box and transported away."
"What, Crab Nine Claws was killed? The body was also taken away? Is this going to be steamed or spicy?"
"Go, go, just want to eat!"
Ba Bo Ben pushed Ba Bo Ben away and then asked: "Have you seen who they are and what they look like... Hey, hey, don't die, you have to tell me who did it first!"
Seeing Gorba fainting again, Ba Bo Ben slapped his little face twice more, but this time he failed to wake him up.
"Ah, I'm really dead this time!"
After carefully inspecting it, Benboba shrugged helplessly and looked at Shi Xiaoxiao standing behind him.
Although Gorba didn't tell clearly who attacked it, Shi Xiaoxiao roughly guessed that someone was causing trouble here.
"Who is causing trouble here...Forget it, since the big crab is dead, there is no need for me to wait any longer. Just bury it!"
Shi Xiaoxiao sighed helplessly, turned around, took out his mobile phone and dialed a 28-digit mobile phone number.
