"Please forgive me, Lord Jiang!" The chairman of Junlin Corporation knelt down in an instant.

He couldn't afford not to be afraid, despite being a prominent figure in Jianghua City. However, to someone like the deputy governor, his status meant nothing.

Once he angered the other party, he probably wouldn't even know how he would die, let alone the governor next to him who was glaring at him.

Jiang Linger was frightened by this. Although there was a bit of trouble, it wasn't the fault of the person in front of her. It was embarrassing for him to kneel down like this.

"Brother... let's just let it go." Jiang Linger shook Jiang Li's sleeve.

Seeing his sister's gesture, Jiang Li sighed. His sister was truly kind. She had almost been attacked earlier, and now she was asking for forgiveness for someone else.

Fine, after all, it was his little sister's request.

Jiang Li looked coldly at the chairman of Junlin Corporation. "Get up. For the sake of my sister, I'll let it go this time! But it seems that some of your employees here don't have good intentions."

The chairman of Junlin Corporation felt as if he had been pardoned and quickly stood up. "Thank you, Lord Jiang, and thank you, beautiful lady!"

After speaking, he immediately turned his gaze to the manager and the receptionist standing beside him and said sternly, "Guards! Drag these two useless people with no vision away!"

"Yes!" Several security guards who had been standing by pulled the lifeless manager and the incredulous receptionist away, disappearing from the sight of the crowd.

"Is this little sister Linger? Indeed, beautiful and kind-hearted," Feng Tianhua chuckled.

Naturally, he had looked up some basic information about Jiang Li.

At this moment, as he praised Jiang Linger, his gaze involuntarily glanced at Kona.

According to Qiao Weidong, the little girl named Kona who had severely injured Sun Taishan was most likely a monstrous descendant of the Apex Level family of the Galaxy Alliance.

Previously, Jiang Li was worried that someone might associate Kona with the beast that attacked the city before, thus suspecting her true identity, so he had specially bought a mask.

But since Qiao Weidong had helped Kona fabricate a non-existent identity, the mask was no longer necessary.

What? You say their faces look the same? Just because they look alike, does that mean they are the same person? Haven't you noticed that she doesn't have horns or scales like the other one?

Feng Tianhua's praise made Jiang Linger feel a little embarrassed, and she increasingly felt that the familiar uncle in front of her was kind.

"Shall we go up then?"

Feng Tianhua turned around, and the onlookers made way for them.

Nervously, Jiang Linger followed her brother through the crowd and into the elevator.

Her mind was now equally confused. What on earth was going on? Why did it seem like all the big shots present were looking at her with respect?

What had her brother been up to during this time?

She also saw her classmates Yao Jian and Lin Tian in the corner of the crowd. At this moment, their eyes were somewhat evasive, as if they were afraid to look at her.

After entering the banquet hall, Jiang Li and Feng Tianhua sat at the front seat.

It was her first time in such a setting, and Jiang Linger felt a bit restrained.

On the other hand, Kona was completely different. From the moment she sat down, her mouth hadn't stopped moving as she ate plate after plate.

In her eyes, this was her big brother's event, so what was there to be embarrassed about?

After taking their seats, Feng Tianhua and Jiang Li exchanged pleasantries for a while, praising Jiang Li as a young talent and a blessing to humanity, which made Jiang Li feel uncomfortable.

The other guests also speculated about the young man's identity and observed silently.

Among the people present, there were no lack of saints, but none of them could discern the depth of Jiang Li, and they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

After a round of pleasantries, Governor Feng Tianhua stood up.

The entire banquet hall fell silent.

"Friends, allow me to introduce my friend to you all."

"He is a young talent, the most dazzling rising star in our Jiangdong Province in recent years!"

"Of course, he also has another identity, that is the future deputy governor of our Jiangdong Province!"

"He is Jiang Li!"

As Feng Tianhua's voice fell, the room erupted into deafening applause.

The reason he said "future deputy governor" was because the official appointment would take a few more days, but since Governor Feng Tianhua said so, it was undoubtedly a done deal.

Jiang Linger, who had been eating cautiously, almost choked on her food.

What? Deputy governor? My brother!?

She suddenly remembered why this old uncle looked so familiar. Wasn't he the governor of Jiangdong Province? He often appeared on TV!

"Now let our future deputy governor say a few words to everyone." After speaking, Feng Tianhua sat down, and everyone's gaze focused on Jiang Li.

Jiang Li stood up slowly, looked around, and said, "Good evening, everyone. I am Jiang Li. I believe that most of you are seeing me for the first time."

"In the near future, I will assume the position of deputy governor of Jiangdong Province. I hope that all of you can remember my face."

"More importantly, I hope that everyone here can remember the faces of my family."

At this point, Jiang Li slightly turned his body so that everyone could see his sister.

Being stared at by so many people, Jiang Linger felt extremely uncomfortable. The food in her mouth no longer tasted good.

Jiang Li continued, "If there really are people who are blind and want to harm my family." He sneered.

The next moment, a pressure that surpassed the Immortal Dao Foundation Building instantly enveloped the entire banquet hall.

Those who had previously looked down on Jiang Li, thinking he was just a second-generation rich kid, suddenly felt as if they were being stared at by a terrifying bloodthirsty beast, and their exquisite clothes were instantly soaked with sweat.

On the other side, Feng Tianhua's expression became serious, and his evaluation of Jiang Li's strength increased by two points.

Fortunately, this pressure only lasted for a short moment before disappearing. The people present began to breathe heavily, their faces showing signs of shock.

This deputy governor was not just for show; he had real power!

After finishing his speech, Jiang Li sat back down.

At this moment, Jiang Linger had a thousand questions in her mind, but she didn't dare to ask her brother in front of Feng Tianhua, so she could only stare at her brother with wide eyes.

In the corner of the banquet hall

"Grandson, you said you were classmates with that girl, right? You also said you invited her to this banquet. What's your relationship with her?"

Yao Lin was excited. He hadn't expected that his good grandson would have such a connection with the deputy governor's sister. If they could establish a good relationship, or even start a romance, their Yao family would prosper.

At the words, Yao Jian stammered, and Lin Tian looked panicked.

Yao Lin had a bad feeling and said, "What's going on!"

"Our... relationship might not be very good," Yao Jian said with his head down. "We had a little... conflict before, and we almost fought..."

As he spoke, Yao Jian's voice had become as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

After hearing this, Yao Lin remained silent for a long time. After a long while, he sighed, as if he had aged a few years, and said, "I'll arrange for someone to send you away from Jianghua tomorrow... Don't come back for the time being."

From then on, Yao Jian's path as a domineering CEO came to a temporary end.
