I control the world with magic

"Today, I would like to take this opportunity of the birthday banquet to talk with you about daily life and express my deep feelings. I wish you all good health, harmonious families and successful careers. I also hope that our friendship will be like this cup of aged wine, which will become more mellow and fresher as time goes by.

Come on, everyone, drink this cup together!"

Amidst the praises, everyone raised their glasses and drank together, smiling.

Qian Zihao drank the wine in one gulp, and the more he cursed in his heart, the happier he became. Old Bidden, you are going to take the postgraduate entrance examination, and you talk like a sow wearing a bra, one set after another, why don't you announce your engagement!

"Everyone, in fact, in addition to my birthday today, there is another happy event to announce..." In Qian Zihao's excited eyes, Murong Zhuo finally got to the point.

Murong Zhuo paused, and his eyes swept slowly across the field, finally landing on Nangong Mengli in the corner. When he found Su Mu next to Nangong Mengli, a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes.

Su Mu smiled slightly: "The show is about to begin."

"Mengli, come here." Murong Zhuo said calmly.

Nangong Mengli slowly stood up, with a calm demeanor on her delicate face, and walked towards the center with elegant steps. For a moment, all the eyes in the field were focused on her. She seemed to be born to be the focus of the crowd, and she had no discomfort in facing such an occasion.

The piano music in the field suddenly became passionate, as if foreshadowing something.

"My daughter Mengli has reached the age of marriage..." Murong Zhuo saw Nangong Mengli coming over and was about to announce her engagement with Qian Zihao, but just halfway through the words, a cold female voice suddenly sounded.

"Mengli wishes father a happy birthday."

When these words came out, everyone was stunned, and the atmosphere in the field became slightly strange. Murong Zhuo was about to announce the happy event, what did you mean by suddenly interrupting? Such rude behavior, still in the public eye, is somewhat intriguing.

Sure enough, Murong Zhuo's face slowly cooled down, and his eyes fell on Nangong Mengli with a look of dignity without anger. His eyes were deep and people could not guess his joy or anger.

The three children behind him showed an expression of watching a good show, and they were obviously looking forward to seeing what would happen to this brother next.

Nangong Mengli seemed not to see Murong Zhuo's gaze, and still said to herself: "Mengli specially prepared a birthday gift for you..."

"What birthday gift is so important? Didn't you see that your father was talking? You step back first and wait a while." Murong Zhuo interrupted Nangong Mengli's words with a calm voice. People who knew him knew that this old noble was on the verge of getting angry.

However, Nangong Mengli did not retreat, but took out a small mahogany box from her handbag.

"Father, this birthday gift is too precious, it really can't wait a moment."

Everyone was more and more shocked. They all thought Nangong Mengli was crazy. She openly contradicted the head of the Murong family? And she was just an illegitimate daughter. In this situation, even if the eldest son Murong Yun dared to do this, he would be severely punished. You know, the nobles are the group in the world that cares most about status and dignity.

Murong Zhuo's face was completely gloomy: "It seems that your father is too indulgent to you on weekdays, so that you..." When he said this, he suddenly stopped, as if he thought of something, and a touch of excitement suddenly appeared in his eyes.

He thought he knew this illegitimate daughter well. She was usually low-key and cautious, and never dared to contradict him, let alone in public. Could it be that she was so abnormal today...

"Is your birthday gift..."

Nangong Mengli nodded: "Yes, it is the Golden Eye."

"What!?" Qian Zihao was the first to exclaim, his face full of disbelief.

The three children of the Murong family also changed their expressions at this time, as if the four words "Golden Eye" had some magical power.

The majesty on Murong Zhuo's face was completely gone, and his old heart was excited at this moment.

Nangong Mengli smiled slightly, and in front of everyone, he directly opened the mahogany box in his hand, and suddenly a bright golden light flashed!

I saw a golden bead that was like a human eyeball lying quietly in the box.

"Golden Eye!? It's really the Golden Eye! It's exactly the same as what's recorded in the ancient books!" Murong Zhuo's voice trembled a little. He was so excited that he could hardly suppress it. His whole mind was attracted by the Golden Eye.

Not only him, but everyone else was the same. Everyone looked at the Golden Eye with a strong greed. This group of upper-class people naturally knew the value of the Golden Eye. Mithril mines were nothing compared to the Golden Eye.

This is a rare item that can create a golden strongman!

Because of this, whoNor did he notice that Su Mu, who was at the end of the crowd, had a pair of eyes hidden behind brown glasses, which were emitting a crystal blue light.

"Mengli... my good daughter! Hahaha... among all these children, you are the one that your father values ​​the most. Hurry... Hurry and give me the Golden Eye!" When the thing he had been longing for for many years appeared in front of him, even this old nobleman couldn't help but lose his composure.

Although he said so, his hands were faster than his mouth. He took two quick steps and stretched out his hand to take the Golden Eye.

But at this moment, something strange happened!

Swish!

At the moment when Murong Zhuo was about to get the Golden Eye, the lights in the entire banquet hall were instantly extinguished, and silent darkness enveloped the entire venue.

Click!

The sound of the huge crystal lamp on the ceiling falling to the ground resounded throughout the venue.

"Ah!" A woman in the crowd screamed shrilly.

"Hahaha... Golden Eye! Golden Eye!" Murong Zhuo laughed wildly in the dark. He was so excited that he didn't care about the lights going out suddenly. He cared about the Golden Eye in his hand. As long as he got it, he could ignore the explosion of the entire Platinum Hotel.

"Heh..." A low and teasing laugh also sounded at this moment. The laugh was obviously not loud, but it seemed to be heard clearly by everyone's ears.

"Murong Zhuo, thank you for your selfless dedication. I accept the Golden Eye with a smile."

As soon as the voice fell, the lights in the banquet hall suddenly lit up. The dazzling light made everyone squint their eyes, but when they saw the scene clearly, their faces changed. They saw that there was an extra person in the scene.

It was a man in a tuxedo, standing in the broken crystal on the ground. The dazzling crystal was shining with a dreamy luster under the light, as if it was a crystal carpet laid for him. He was tall and straight, like a green pine, exuding an innate noble temperament.
