Villain: Who said I came here to break off the engagement?

The third floor of the high-rise building is specially used for holding banquets. The people who can sit here are all direct clan members, important collateral clan members, and recruited confidants.

The structure of this floor is quite special. It is ventilated on all sides and has no wooden wall partitions, so it does not give people a low and depressing feeling. Looking around, you can see the breeze, the bright moon and thousands of lights outside the high-rise building.

Everyone was confused about being invited here for the banquet. They stared at each other and didn't understand what they were so happy about.

Several senior clan elders were discussing in low voices, and out of the corner of their eyes, they caught a glimpse of someone walking into the hall, a slightly thin old man.

Several clan elders, including all the direct clan members in the hall, stood up and saluted the old man.

The old man smiled back and said in a gentle voice: "There is a wedding banquet tonight. It is a good day. You don't have to be restrained. Just be casual."

Only then did everyone sit down.

Several clan elders came to the old man and invited him to take a seat at the front.

A square-faced clan elder asked: "Third Grandpa, what day is it today? Has anything good happened? Why did Cheng Wang prepare a banquet so suddenly?"

Another clan elder with a leopard head and ringed eyes answered: "That's right, we didn't notify you in advance, we lined up as soon as we were told, and there was no preparation at all. Third Grandpa, do you know what's going on?"

The old man, who was respectfully called Third Grandpa by the elders of the clan, always had a smile on his face and said: "If there is a banquet, you just have to eat it. What do you need to prepare? Chengwang is now the one in charge of the family. There is no need for me to follow him to make any decisions." Report, I won’t bother to inquire, that child’s ability is obvious to all.”

The clan elders smiled and didn't ask any more questions, but they didn't leave either. Instead, they gathered around the old man and talked with him.

After a while, Li Chengwang and his wife came down from the tea room.

The clan members stood up to greet him one after another, and the senior clan elders also nodded to Li Chengwang.

Li Chengwang returned the courtesy one by one. When his eyes swept over the third grandpa, something unnatural flashed deep in his eyes, and he turned to look at his wife.

Jiang Rou had a reserved smile on her face. Seeing her husband looking at her, she shook her head imperceptibly, then looked away to greet the clan members.

The couple came to the first place. It was a long, low table that could seat two people at the same time, so they sat together every time there was a banquet. The elders had no objection to this because the head of the family was Li Chengwang. , as long as the rules are reasonable and do not touch the bottom line of the elders of the clan, they will not talk too much.

Moreover, Li Chengwang is a very popular person with a very charming personality. In addition to his amazing means and super execution ability, the most important thing for him to be in the position he is today is that he is versatile and can balance all parties, no matter who he follows. The relationship is good.

Not long after Li Chengwang sat down, the square-faced clan elder asked: "Chengwang, what a good day it is today. There is such a big battle. I don't remember whose birthday is today."

He made a joke, trying to liven things up.

Li Chengwang said: "A unique guest came yesterday. As the lord of a city, how can we not prepare anything?"

Third Grandpa smiled and nodded: "Yes, that's right."

The clan elder with a leopard head and ringed eyes asked: "Although when guests come from far away, no matter how high or low they are, they must be well entertained, but this battle is too big. I hope, who is that distinguished guest?"

Li Chengwang glanced at his wife, looked at the elders of all clans, and said in a gentle tone: "It's Guan Hai who is here."

The entire hall on the third floor suddenly fell silent, and the discussion stopped abruptly. Everyone was looking at the gentle and elegant man sitting at the head of the table.

The third grandpa suddenly stood up, stared at Li Chengwang, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Is he Li Yuan's son?"

Li Chengwang lowered his eyelids and nodded: "It's him. He has come to the city. He came last night."

Grandpa San sat back on the cushions and looked at him with incredulous eyes, trembling all over.

The faces of the other clan elders also showed expressions of shock and anger.

The clan leader with the leopard head and ring eyes was obviously a bad-tempered man. He struck the table, knocked down the wine glass, and said with suppressed anger, "Why did he come here, and why did you prepare a banquet to welcome him."

In the face of his harsh questioning, Li Chengwang remained calm and replied in a calm tone: "Guan Hai is my nephew, and I haven't seen him for many years. Now that he is here, as an uncle, of course I have to entertain him well."

The elder of the square-faced clan also stood up. He sighed: "Chengwang, you know the grievances between us and him, but you still bring Li Guanhai to this city. That's all. You actually do it for him." When you hold a banquet and invite us here, have you considered us and the third grandpa’s feelings?”

Everyone looked at the third grandpa who was lying on the cushion, with pity and intolerance in their eyes.

During the shocking incident that year, their lineage was frantically pursued by Li Yuan. They suffered heavy casualties and were forced to become homeless and wander around the world.

Although there were heavy casualties, the bloodline was more or less preserved, and there was incense to pass on.

But the situation of the third grandpa was different. All his sons, nephews, and grandsons died in Li Yuan's pursuit. None of them survived. He was the only one left alive.

For an old man, this is undoubtedly the cruelest thing.

Li Chengwang glanced at the thin Grandpa San and sighed.

He would not self-righteously persuade Grandpa San to let go of his old grudges, because he was not qualified, and it was also a selfish act.

Those who died were the third grandpa’s nephews and grandsons, not his, so why should he advise others to be generous?

If Li Chengwang had encountered such a thing, he would also remember it and hate it for the rest of his life.

The originally festive and lively hall fell silent again, and the atmosphere was a little weird.

Several young men and women gathered together and exchanged glances, showing undisguised dissatisfaction on their faces.

They felt that Li Chengwang was really confused in handling this matter, and it was not what a leader should do.

At the same time, they were curious about Li Guanhai, who was known as the first young man in the upper world, and wanted to meet him.

At this time, the third grandfather stood up, turned around and looked at everyone, and said in an old and low voice: "Everyone, I know that you have a deep hatred for Yunwei Division, but after all, so many years have passed. I don't expect you to resolve this hatred, but in any case, I can't vent my anger on Guanhai."

Everyone was stunned. Obviously, they didn't expect the third grandfather to speak for the son of his enemy. You know, all this was caused by him.

Li Chengwang and his wife looked at each other and were surprised.

Although they were confused, no one interrupted.

The third grandfather continued, "If it weren't for Guan Hai's efforts to promote the establishment of the branch, and his support and sending us needed supplies, we would probably still be wandering around the world, hiding our identities like rats crossing the street."
