Chapter 1149 Contemporary Duan Zhengchun
Countless cameras and heads turned to the other end of the red carpet, and most of the attention originally focused on Jiang Xiaochuan and Chu Nanyue was instantly drained away.
"Oh my God! It's...it's the Situ family's car!"
"More than that! The one behind is... the Jiang family's?!"
"People from the six major families have really come?! And more than one family?!"
The reporters who were unaware of the inside story no longer cared about Jiang Xiaochuan and Chu Nanyue, and rushed towards the new focus at the speed of a 100-meter sprint!
The Situ family, the Jiang family... These names may sound unfamiliar to ordinary people, but to the top circles and senior financial media, they are like thunder!
It is a real behemoth entrenched in the depths of certain areas of China and even the world. It has amazing power but rarely appears in public. The head of the family is like a dragon that is hard to find.
Their movements often mean a change in the wind direction and a redistribution of huge benefits.
The news value of being able to photograph them far exceeds any celebrity scandal!
Jiang Xiaochuan squinted his eyes and looked over there, only to see two black Rolls-Royces slowly stopping on the red carpet.
At the other end, the car door opened and several men in black suits with a strong aura walked down. They were the servants of the Situ family and the Jiang family.
"Hikawa Okazaka is really very powerful. He can actually invite these two great gods here."
He rubbed his chin and thought to himself, "It seems that today's 'Hongmen Banquet' is more complicated than I imagined."
Chu Nanyan also noticed something was wrong, and her grip on Jiang Xiaochuan's arm tightened a little, "What should we do? People from the six major families are here too. Will they help Hikawa Okasaka?"
"don’t worry."
Jiang Xiaochuan patted the back of her hand and said, "Their purpose for coming here is unclear. They may not be here to help Hikawa Okazaka. Let's stick to the original plan and deal with them as they come."
The two took the opportunity to quickly leave the almost deserted area and walked quickly towards the ticket gate at the entrance of the venue.
The staff at the ticket office seemed to be attracted by the commotion in the distance and were a little absent-minded.
When he took the two invitations handed to him by Jiang Xiaochuan, he was stunned for a moment.
It's nothing, these two invitations... look like they were fished out of a trash can.
The staff member was a little skeptical and repeatedly confirmed the anti-counterfeiting logo and information on it several times before reluctantly nodding and indicating that passage was allowed.
Just as Jiang Xiaochuan was about to enter, a gentle voice came from behind him:
"Please stay."
Jiang Xiaochuan turned around and found a middle-aged man with fair skin and gold-rimmed glasses looking at him with a smile.
This man has a slight resemblance to Situ Hong between his eyebrows, but in terms of overall bearing, cultivation and the composure that comes from being in a high position for a long time, Situ Hong is completely incomparable to him.
It has a bit of the feeling of describing a handsome and elegant uncle, which is popular nowadays.
Combined with the commotion at the entrance just now that almost blew the roof off, Jiang Xiaochuan knew very well who was in front of him.
Could it be that he was using Situ Hong as a tool, and as his father he came to seek justice?
He subconsciously became alert, and his perception quietly spread out.
It was discovered that the people brought by Situ Qingzhen were now well-trained and standing in the back, effectively blocking the reporters and crowds who were trying to rush over.
As for him, he had a reserved aura and a warm smile, and it seemed that... he posed no direct threat of force to himself.
"What's the matter?"
Jiang Xiaochuan asked calmly, secretly on guard.
"Haha, you don't recognize me, Xiao Jiang, but I do recognize you."
Situ Zhen's smile became warmer and he extended his hand.
"Thanks to you for taking care of my good-for-nothing son Situ Hong a few days ago, I, as his father, should have come to thank you in person, but I was busy with trivial matters and never got around to it. Instead, I ran into you here. Mr. Jiang, please don't be offended."
"It turns out to be Patriarch Situ."
Jiang Xiaochuan's mind raced, but a look of realization appeared on his face. He reached out and shook his hand gently: "Master Situ, you are too polite. Young Master Hong and I get along well. It's just a small favor for me. It's nothing."
He spoke beautifully, but in his heart he was muttering, "Is it strange? I'd be thankful if you didn't cause me any trouble."
Situ Zhen took the initiative to show goodwill and spoke in such a polite tone, it was definitely not just to express gratitude.
For a person like him, time is more valuable than gold. Why would he stop a junior for such a small matter?
As the two were talking, the voices of several agents nearby could be heard quietly.
"Patriarch Situ is even more handsome in person than he is in the news! He's much more charming than his philandering son!"
An agent who looked like a young woman felt aroused when she saw Situ Zhendun.
In her opinion, this kind of mature middle-aged man is much more attractive than young and handsome guys. Of course, there is no lack of admiration for the strong.
"You do not know?"
Someone nearby lowered his voice, excited about sharing a secret.
"I heard that Patriarch Situ, though a gentle and polite person on the surface, is actually quite promiscuous in private, particularly fond of... married women. It's said he often sneaks into other people's homes in the middle of the night, and has been seen more than once..."
"Ah? Isn't that the modern-day Duan Zhengchun?"
"As expected, a dragon gives birth to a dragon, and a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix..."
"But who is this Jiang Xiaochuan? Even the head of the Situ family is so polite to him?"
"I heard that he is the illegitimate son of the head of the Jiang family..."
Several agents were talking excitedly when they suddenly felt a chill all over their bodies, as if they were enveloped by an invisible aura.
They subconsciously turned around and saw Jiang Zhenyue walking towards them with a faint smile on his face.
Seeing him coming, the people around him held their breath unconsciously and made way for him.
Although Jiang Zhenyue had a smile on his face, his authority and sharp gaze from being in a high position for a long time made it difficult to look directly at him.
"Brother Situ, haven't you gone in yet?"
Jiang Zhenyue said with a smile.
It was pure coincidence that the two of them arrived at the same time, giving others the illusion that they appeared together.
In fact, they hadn't met for a long time.
Faced with this coincidence, Jiang Zhenyue not only did not avoid suspicion, but took the lead in greeting enthusiastically, giving people the feeling that the relationship between the two families was warm.
"Brother Zhenyue."
Situ Zhen responded calmly, and after a few familiar greetings...
Jiang Zhenyue walked straight past Jiang Xiaochuan and Chu Nanyan, his eyes looking straight ahead, not even looking at Jiang Xiaochuan from beginning to end, as if he didn't exist at all.
Even from his natural disregard, Jiang Xiaochuan keenly felt a kind of alienation that was deliberately drawn a line between them.
Looking at his back as he walked into the venue, Jiang Xiaochuan sneered in his heart.
It seems that Tang Long has already reported the Red Blood Cult's visit.
Jiang Zhenyue was afraid of being associated with him, the source of the trouble, and attracting the attention of the Red Blood Cult.
Jiang Xiaochuan felt relieved that he didn't have to deal with this old fox.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Jiang Zhenyue left, the smile on Situ Zhen's face seemed more genuine.
He leaned slightly towards Jiang Xiaochuan and lowered his voice, "Since you and Hong'er get along well, I won't be shy. Do you mind if I call you Xiaochuan?"
