"Partiality?"
Hearing the word "partiality," Captain Liu narrowed his eyes.
He knew very well that Qian Youde was right. He was indeed being partial.
But so what?
This was his grandfather's esteemed guest. Could he possibly offend him?
"That's right! Although you were asking for his name just now, it's obvious you've met him before!"
"As Captain of the Long family's security, you not only fail to uphold the Long family's honor but are instead showing favoritism to others! I will report you to the Long family!"
Qian Youde was furious.
In his opinion, Captain Liu was deliberately favoring these people surnamed Lin!
That was why he said they would deal with it after the banquet.
Heaven knows, he was only a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator. Lin Xianfeng and Lin Yuelong were both famous late-stage Core Formation experts in the capital!
If this was left to be dealt with after the banquet, he would definitely be beaten beyond recognition.
"Report me? Suit yourself!"
Hearing that Qian Youde was going to report him, Captain Liu waved his hand dismissively.
According to the Long family's rules, esteemed guests of the Long family were to be protected without reservation.
And Mr. Lin was a guest of their master, undoubtedly one of the esteemed guests. It was perfectly acceptable for him to show favoritism.
Even if this matter were to reach the elders, he would not back down!
"Hmph! See, you are indeed partial to him!"
Seeing that Captain Liu wasn't even bothering to explain, Qian Youde understood everything. It seemed his guess was correct; this Captain Liu was deliberately protecting them!
"What's going on? Why are you making such a fuss here? It's unbecoming."
However, just as Qian Youde was arguing with Captain Liu, a young man suddenly walked out from the side.
"Seventh Young Master!"
Upon seeing the person approach, Captain Liu quickly greeted him.
"Seventh Young Master! Your Long family's security guard is being unreasonable, showing favoritism, and indulging others in causing trouble at the Long family's entrance!"
Seeing the young man who had suddenly appeared, Qian Youde's eyes lit up.
This Seventh Young Master, Long Hongyuan, was one of the geniuses of the Long family.
Furthermore, he was extremely protective. Anyone who dared to speak ill of the Long family in front of him would be beaten black and blue.
Now was the perfect opportunity to report Captain Liu's actions to the Seventh Young Master.
Given the Seventh Young Master's personality, he would surely not let Captain Liu off the hook!
He had openly attacked someone at the Long family's entrance this morning, and Long Hongyuan would surely teach him a harsh lesson.
"Oh? Indulging others in causing trouble at the Long family's entrance?"
"Captain Liu, is this true?"
After Qian Youde spoke, Long Hongyuan's eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of killing intent.
Yesterday was a grand day for the entire Long family. The master had decreed that no one in the Long family was allowed to be absent.
On such an important occasion, for someone to dare cause trouble at the Long family's entrance was undoubtedly courting death!
Yet, their own security captain was indulging such behavior, which meant he would have to face family law!
"Seventh Young Master, I..."
Hearing Long Hongyuan's words, Captain Liu was about to explain when Qian Youde interrupted him.
"Seventh Young Master, please look, I still have injuries on my face. He hit me!"
Qian Youde, in a fit of rage, pointed at Lin Chen and began to complain.
"If Captain Liu came out to show favoritism to this person after he hit someone, then these people are definitely working together!"
"We hit someone at the Long family's entrance and completely disregarded the Long family's dignity!"
Qian Youde spoke with an air of earnestness, as if he were the manager of the Long family.
"Oh? Who is it? Daring to hit someone at our entrance? Uh..."
However, just as Long Hongyuan was about to see who dared to cause trouble at the Long family's entrance, he suddenly saw Lin Chen's familiar face and was so startled that he jumped.
Others might not know the true purpose of today's banquet, but as the genuine Seventh Young Master of the Long family, he was well aware of the inside story.
Today, while it was ostensibly Long Yixian's birthday, it was actually the engagement banquet for Long Yuling and Lin Chen.
Strictly speaking, the person in front of him was one of the main characters of today's event!
But now, this main character had actually struck someone at the Long family's entrance. This indeed caught Long Hongyuan by surprise.
"What? Long Hongyuan, someone insulted my mother, and I'm not allowed to hit him here?"
Seeing Long Hongyuan's gaze, Lin Chen smiled faintly and retorted.
He hadn't seen Long Hongyuan since leaving Zhejiang province, and he never expected to meet him here.
"Hahaha! Brat, you're finished, you're finished! You actually dare to call the Seventh Young Master by his name!"
"You're dead!"
"Seventh Young Master, this person dares to call you by your full name in front of so many people, clearly showing no respect for the Long family!"
Hearing that Lin Chen dared to call Long Hongyuan by his name, Qian Youde became excited.
In the entire capital, who didn't respectfully address Long Hongyuan as Seventh Young Master?
But now, with so many people around, this person actually dared to call Long Hongyuan by his name. This was undoubtedly courting death!
Given Long Hongyuan's temperament, he would surely teach Lin Chen an unforgettable lesson.
"Heh, what? I calling you by your name means I don't respect the Long family?"
Lin Chen let out a cold laugh at Qian Youde, who was acting like a clown beside him.
It was clear that Qian Youde was deliberately using the Lin family's reputation to deal with him and Fan Lei.
Hearing Lin Chen's words, Long Hongyuan felt cold sweat break out all over his body.
Back in Zhejiang province, when he had merely intended to make a move on Long Yuling, this person had almost killed him.
If it weren't for the Long family's experts coming out to protect him, he would have been a corpse by now!
"Bastard! Shut your mouth!"
At this point, Long Hongyuan instinctively turned and angrily cursed Qian Youde, who was fanning the flames.
Heaven knows, what was Lin Chen's status now?
How could he possibly offend him?
Let alone calling him by his name, even if he beat him half to death in front of all the Long family members, no one would dare to say a single word!
"No... Seventh Young Master, I..."
Upon hearing Long Hongyuan's reprimand, Qian Youde was completely bewildered.
He had met Long Hongyuan before and knew he was a very protective person.
Why had he suddenly changed, not only failing to deal with Lin Chen but also scolding him instead?
This was truly unexpected for Qian Youde!
