Chapter 901 - It’s All A Matter Of Face (2/2)
Song Dong stared blankly before he hurriedly said, “Since its an honored guest of the Liu Family, then he’s also an honored patron of my Green Lake Agricola. May I know when the said party will come over? I’m going to greet him in person.”
“He’s surnamed Tang and he’s already in your Green Lake Agricola.”
“A family name Tang?”
Song Donglai suddenly recalled the matter that had been just reported to him. He abruptly got up and said, “I think I know who the person is, Patriarch Liu. Please rest assured. I’ll arrange it immediately.”
“Thank you.”
As the phone call ended, Song Donglai wore a strange expression and said, “It seems like there’s quite a great personage coming to my place. To think that he can actually move the Patriarch of the first family of Chang City to speak for him; his background surely must be very extraordinary.”
“The Lius of Chang City?” asked Ao Wei with a surprised expression. “That Old Cripple’s family?”
“Yeah,” affirmed Song Donglai with a solemn face.
“If so, then you’ve gotta arrange it well!” Ao Wei nodded and said, “The Lius of Chang City are not some ordinary folks, especially that Old Cripple. She has quite deep friendships with the elders of many families under our Occult Sect.”
Song Donglai nodded without speaking and quickly left the box. He soon appeared in front of Tang Xiu after the bald big man took him there.
“I’m really sorry for being disrespectful; all the fault is on me. I’m Song Donglai, the owner of this Green Lake Agricola. I didn’t know that Brother Tang was visiting my venue, so I didn’t greet you! Additionally, I didn’t know that you’re also a distinguished guest of the Liu Family of Chang City. I hope Brother Tang doesn’t feel offended for being neglected previously,” greeted Song Donglai politely.
Tang Xiu casually looked at him and said indifferently, “It’s alright. Please lead the way!”
“Ugh…”
Right as Song Donglai saw Tang Xiu’s face, he didn’t exchange more amenities and was somewhat annoyed by Tang Xiu’s indifference. However, he didn’t want to take it out on Tang Xiu out of respect to the Liu Family. He no longer spoke and directly brought Tang Xiu and Li Qiang to the VIP box.
“Manager Wang, you’ll be the host!”
After speaking, Song Donglai cupped his fists to Tang Xiu and Li Qiang, then turned and left.
As for Manager Wang herself, she was secretly shocked and amazed back when Song Donglai appeared. As one who was very experienced in dealing with people, however, she could tell that Tang Xiu and her Boss were in a rather odd situation at this moment. After pressing down her shock, she said, “Two Sirs, the menu will be sent by the waiters immediately. But if you both need anything, please don’t hesitate to tell them.”
“We know. You can go tend to your own business,” said Tang Xiu.
Manager Wang nodded and quickly headed to the outside. In normal times, she was usually the one responsible with entertaining the distinguished guests in the VIP box. However, today her Boss was obviously not happy, so she couldn’t risk being partial to these two young men.
After half an hour later, Tang Xiu and Li Qiang were thoroughly enjoying themselves with their meals. The venison dishes of the Green Lake Agricola did indeed taste great. However, Tang Xiu still remembered the peculiar circumstances that shrouded this place, so he abstained from drinking.
‘I should take a stroll around after this,” thought Tang Xiu.
However, just as this thought fleeted away, the VIP box’s door was knocked on. After it was opened, Yang Shi came in along with a fifty-plus-year-old man.
“We’re not disturbing you, Divine Doctor Tang?” Yang Shi walked in with her walking stick and asked.
Tang Xiu’s eyes swept over before falling on the old man. He inquired, “It’s alright. Who’s this, though?”
“He’s my son, Liu Pinxin, the current Head of the Liu Family, Divine Doctor Tang,” said Yang Shi quickly. “Hey, Pinxin! What are you gawking for? Hurry and greet Divine Doctor Tang!”
“Greetings, Divine Doctor Tang,” hurriedly greeted Liu Pinxin while cupping his fists.
Tang Xiu nodded at him and, after a moment of contemplation, he said, “Thank you for tonight’s matter. Although your mother promised me to leave the Liu Family, I’m going to give you a promise as well. If your family faces difficulties in the future that even your mother can’t solve it, you can find me once.”
Li Pinxin’s eyes lit up and he immediately looked excited. He had already heard about Tang Xiu’s identity from his mother, so he knew that this young man was an unfathomable cultivator. Yet, such a powerful person gave his commitment to his Liu Family.
This commitment… was definitely a good deed for the Liu Family!
With a look of gratitude, Liu Pinxin responded, “Thank you so much, Divine Doctor Tang. Also, is there anything else you need here? I’ll arrange it immediately.”
“There’s no need for that.” Tang Xiu shook his head.
Liu Pinxin nodded and glanced at his mother, Zhang Shi, and then paced back half a step, no longer speaking.
Zhang Shi smiled and said, “How about I make Pinxin accompany you during your stay in Chang City, Divine Doctor Tang? You can tell him if there’s anything you need.”
“Hahaha.” Tang Xiu couldn’t help but laugh and said, “No need for that! Besides, he’s a dignified Patriarch of the first family of Chang City. How could I do that to him? Thanks for the good intention, though. You two can go back.”
