Gu Ming couldn't stand the strange stares of the people around her any longer. In a hurry, she prepared to leave the banquet hall, regardless of whether the lights were on or if she could see clearly.
"Turn on the lights."
Jiang Tao thoughtfully called out, and then all the lights in the banquet hall were turned on. Everyone instinctively made way for Gu Ming to leave. Gu Ming, without looking back, rushed out of the banquet hall.
"That was a rather interesting little interlude for everyone. Now, our banquet continues," Jiang Tao said into the microphone.
At this moment, the guests present were even more certain that Jiang Tao was on the same side as Lin Xiao!
This banquet, in the final analysis, was essentially to allow the Luo family to forge connections with more people... no, it was for Luo Qinghan.
This was all about handing over resources and connections to Luo Qinghan!
What kind of person was Lin Xiao that even Jiang Tao, whom the Tianxia Association had never been able to subdue, was willing to go this far for him?
After realizing this, no one could now look directly at Lin Xiao, who was sitting by the water's edge, eating with his child.
So, the true protagonist of this banquet was him.
This unassuming man.
If Lin Xiao could hear these people's thoughts, he would no doubt retort, "Your whole family is unassuming."

Gu Ming, carrying her limited edition LV bag, left the hotel in a huff. She had never experienced such humiliation in her life and was determined to find an opportunity to get her revenge!
That Luo Qinghan, and her cheap husband...

Gu Ming, who was about to drive away, frowned. She impatiently cursed, "Who the hell are you to hit on me? Get lost!"
As she cursed, she even raised her precious handbag and flung it directly at the person.
Normally, she would never do such a thing. She cherished this LV bag.
"Hey? Don't be so hasty."
The person dodged slightly, grabbed her hand, and with a playful smile on his face, said, "I'm here to help you."
"Help me?"
Hearing the stranger's words, Gu Ming stared at him. She had never seen this man before, but in Shashi, she had never encountered anyone like him. The man looked ordinary, and his attire was very simple.
"What can you do to help me?" Gu Ming sneered. Was this man dreaming? She pulled her hand back and opened the car door, "What you can do for me now is to get lost and not get in my way."
After saying that, she prepared to get into the car, but the next second, the man's hand directly gripped her neck, and he coldly chuckled, "Miss Gu Ming, I told you, I'm here to help you, so I hope you cooperate with me. Otherwise, you'll never have another chance in this lifetime."
"As for why there won't be another chance, you should know better than me."
As he spoke, the man leaned close to Gu Ming's ear and extended his tongue, his warmth transferring to her ear.
She struggled desperately, her hands frantically hitting the man's arm, but his grip was like a vise, unmoving. She was even finding it difficult to breathe. In another ten seconds, she would...
