The Liang family birthday banquet was held in an orderly manner amidst the celebration.
It must be said that everyone in the Liang family is very talented in acting. They pretended to be completely unaware that enemies were watching. Everyone was laughing and in a happy mood.
If Liang Feifan hadn't told him in advance, Xiao Chen wouldn't have dared to say that he could see through the Liang family's drama.
"Master Xiao!"
Liang Anlan, Liang Hong, and Liang Feifan all came to greet Xiao Chen and wanted to invite him to the table.
But Xiao Chen refused directly: "You go and greet other guests, we can just find a seat and sit down anywhere."
"How can this be done?" Liang Hong said sincerely, "Master Xiao is a distinguished guest of our Liang family and my father's savior. He must be seated here!"
"I don't dare to sit in the Liang family's seat!" Xiao Chen shook his head.
The so-called "top seat" must be sitting with several major figures of the Liang family. When the time comes, he will not be able to stay out of the matter.
"What do you mean, Master?" Liang Hong was surprised in his heart, did Xiao Chen know something?
When Liang Feifan saw this, he quickly advised: "Dad, just let Mr. Xiao do it!"
"Hong'er, you don't have to force me, sir!" Liang Anlan also said.
"That's... okay! Mr. Xiao, let's go greet other guests, please do as you please!"
A total of more than two hundred tables were set up for this birthday banquet, ranging from the hall to the courtyard.
The hall has two floors, upper and lower.
Xiao Chen and Cao Yanxue went to the lobby on the second floor and chose a seat to the side with a better view to sit down.
At this time, many guests took their seats one after another.
Xiao Chen saw Dian Qianwu and her maid.
Dian Qianwu was obviously one of the distinguished guests invited by the Liang family. Three generations of the Liang family went to greet her and wanted to invite her to the table.
However, she also refused the invitation and took her maid Xiaoling to the second floor.
"Miss……"
Xiaoling pulled Di Qianwu's sleeves and pointed Xiao Chen and Cao Yanxue in this direction with her eyes.
Di Qianwu hesitated for a while, then walked to the opposite side of Xiao Chen and asked softly: "Master, do you mind if we sit down here?"
"We don't have the right for two people to occupy the same table, please do as you please!"
Xiao Chen didn't mind that Di Qianwu sat down.
This is a loose table that can seat seven or eight people. Strangers will definitely come to sit down.
Rather than doing this, it is better to let Di Qianwu and the others sit here.
"Thank you!"
Die Qianwu is sitting upright, with a pleasant expression and as quiet as a virgin.
The girl next to her, Xiao Ling, also sat down, but kept staring at Xiao Chen, like a curious baby who didn't know what to avoid!
"Xiao Ling, don't be rude!" Di Qianwu seemed to scold Xiao Ling dozens of times every day.
However, Xiaoling was completely childish and said nonchalantly: "Miss, I'm just looking at it. Isn't it just for people to look at a face?"
"..."
Die Qianwu was speechless for a moment.
Cao Yanxue snickered and said to Xiaoling: "Little sister, do you think my master is good-looking?"
"It's indeed not bad, not worse than Shen Yixian!" Xiaoling said, and suddenly she was startled and said, "What did you call him, Master?"
Next to him, Di Qianwu was equally surprised, his beautiful eyes fell on Xiao Chen, as if he wanted to detect something.
"Why is everyone so surprised when they hear it?" Cao Yanxue glanced sideways at Xiao Chen, a little helpless.
"He looks younger than you. Of course we are surprised when you call him Master. Yesterday I thought you were siblings or a couple?" Xiaoling said curiously.
"You are a brat, who told you to think wildly?" Cao Yanxue's face turned red inexplicably.
Xiao Chen looked normal and asked: "Are you from Yanjing?"
"Yes!" Xiaoling replied.
"It's so far away, why did you come to attend Liang Anlan's birthday party?"
"Our Die family has some connections with the Liang family. My parents were busy and couldn't get away, so they asked me to come and celebrate Mr. Liang's birthday!" Die Qianwu replied.
"I see!"
Xiao Chen nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
However, Die Qianwu said: "I wonder if Qianwu can ask the same question, why did the young master attend the Liang family's birthday banquet?"
Xiao Chen smiled casually and said: "Actually, there is no special reason for attending the birthday banquet, we are just here to join in the fun!"
"Qianwu doesn't think so!" Die Qianwu shook his head.
"Oh?" Xiao Chen said quietly, "Then why do you think I came to the birthday banquet?"
"I don't know, but I'm sure the young master is different from ordinary guests."
"How can you be sure?"
"Because the courtyard where the young master lives!" Die Qianwu said seriously, "Qianwu has been to the Liang family once, and the courtyard where he lived that time is the courtyard where the young master lives now."
"Hey, miss, have you been to the Liang family before?" Xiaoling didn't even know about this.
"That was a few years ago. You were still young and I didn't let you follow me."
"Oh!" Xiaoling said "oh" and asked again, "What does that have to do with the yard where you live?"
"The Liang family is a large and ancient family, and they attach great importance to etiquette and etiquette. Guests are divided into three, six or nine grades, so naturally they will not treat them equally and treat them all with the same standards."
"The standards can often be distinguished from the yard where the guests live."
Xiaoling heard this and said in surprise: "Miss, are you saying that the courtyard where he lives is of a different level from the courtyard where we live?"
"It can be said that that courtyard is the one with the highest status in the Liang family. It is usually only used to entertain the most special guests."
Di Qianwu said, looking directly at Xiao Chen, as if she wanted to see a change in his eyes.
But it's all in vain.
Xiao Chen was as calm as water from beginning to end, without any ripples.
"Miss Butterfly, you are too considerate. We just arrived one step earlier than you, so we checked in first!"
Xiao Chen was a little funny, how could this Dian Qianwu care about such a thing?
Xiaoling tilted her head and thought for a while, then asked Cao Yanxue: "Sister, can you hear the Decepticons crying and howling at night?"
"It seems a little bit, but it doesn't have a big impact!" Cao Yanxue replied.
"Why is this like this? We can hear it very clearly over there. Sure enough, there is a difference in treatment!"
Xiaoling finally understood what Di Qianwu meant and was so angry that she went crazy.
Cao Yanxue: "..."
…
Gradually, the birthday banquet entered the formal stage, and countless guests took their seats.
Not many people came up to the second floor. There were four people at Xiao Chen's table, and no strangers came to join in.
The first floor was full of guests. The closer to Liang Anlan's table, the more people there were. They probably wanted to have a relationship with Liang Anlan, a famous celebrity.
As the birthday girl today, Liang Anlan's face is rosy and she always has a happy smile on her face.
When the birthday banquet officially started, he picked up the wine glass and said loudly:
"Thank you all for your respect and for coming to Liang's birthday banquet. From now on, we will all be friends. If there is any difficulty, I, the Liang family, will definitely lend a helping hand. We will help each other through thick and thin!"
Naturally, everyone was inspired by this impassioned speech and raised their glasses in response.
Dian Qianwu, Cao Yanxue, and Xiaoling also stood up, but Xiao Chen was the only one who sat motionless.
"Master Xiao?" Di Qianwu called softly.
Xiaoling was speechless and said: "Don't act like a big deal, stand up quickly, this is the minimum respect!"
However, Xiao Chen remained indifferent and said calmly: "I can't drink this glass of wine!"
"Why?" Dian Qianwu asked.
"They're coming!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a loud roar that shook the sky, and seven black shadows descended from the sky like the dark god of death.
"Haha... Liang Anlan, how about you let me toast you with this glass of wine?"
