97 Chapter 97 (1/2)
”I want to conquer Nexus for our Lu Family. Will you help me achieve this goal?”
Lu Jian heard this and the first thing he wanted to do was shout in the face of Elder Lu Chen. To spout this kind of rubbish was simply preposterous to say the least.
Only a conceited brat would think of such things which was befitting enough for Elder Lu Chen's status at the moment.
Nevertheless, the old Patriarch was wise enough to shut his mouth off in the face of the silent Senior Wan Fei in their midst.
'The young cub really doesn't know how to fear the Tiger just yet.' Patriarch Lu Chen sighed deeply before answering.
Around him, he could see the expression of unbelief on the face of his Clan Elders also.
They were seated around an elegant dining table and perhaps the only one that did not show any reaction at all was the inscrutable Senior Wan Fei.
”HAHAHA! That is a good jest, Elder Lu Chen. Come! Come! Let's drink some more!” In the end, Patriarch Lu Jian could only take a wise detour to avoid any sort of confrontation whatsoever.
He had toiled for almost 2 centuries in politics and knew the exact maneuver given the peculiar circumstance that he faced tonight.
”Cheers!”
”HAHAHA!”
”To Elder Lu Chen's good health and service to the Lu Family!”
The three old male Clan Elders joined their Leader in defusing the situation in order to avoid further embarrassment accrued unto the recently appointed Elder Lu Chen.
But inside they all were laughing and cursing the guts of this bold new Elder. Perhaps the only one who considered Elder Lu Chen's word was the only Lady Elder amongst them, Elder Lu Fen.
'Conquer Nexus for our Lu Family.' This phrase reverberated in Elder Lu Fen's mind and her heart was beating rapidly in response to these brave words appearing so enticingly delicious in her ears right now.
'Now this is what a true man should be!' Elder Lu Fen nodded in approval then looked at her husband in comparison.
Lu Jing may have given her a calm and peaceful life but sometimes this serenity would bring a sense of dullness in her soul.
Three rounds of drinks followed as the table was filled once with camaraderie and laughter.
The old goats around were expert talkers and could entertain anyone from the lowest slave to the highest dignitaries of other cities if necessary.
They have not lived this long to earn no stupidity in their lengthy tenure. Lu Chen allowed all of this to happen and made small talks with his Seniors. He at least gave them this much face in the beginning.
”Why aren't you drinking, Wan Fei? Does the wine not suit your taste at all?” Clark whispered towards the lovely woman at his side.
Although she had changed dresses from earlier but the color still remained ever crimson. She chose this because it was the right color for celebration which suited this event quite perfectly.
The blood red dress hugged her body and if one would look long enough, he could not help but discern two points of proud tips along the hidden valley of her bosom.
And having Lu Chen's lewd personality also did not provide any comfort towards our bored gamer. His little brother has been standing up in attention ever since the feast has started.
'FUCK ME! Where can I find release for this embarrassing situation?'
'And I can't also force myself on my maid servants also!'
'I couldn't live with myself after the deed was done and over!'
'DAMN! Having Wan Fei around is much more troublesome than i anticipated.' Clark complained but he hid his real feelings well enough.
The object of his desire did not even get a sniff of it whatsoever which eased our good gamer's worries.
In the end, he took deep breaths and steadied the guise of a smile on his face to properly hide what he was truly feeling right now.
”I'm fine, Lu Chen. The food is great and the drinks are also of excellent quality.” Wan Fei smiled seductively at her prey and even went as far as to take another sip at her untouched glass of one hour.
She would have loved to do nothing else right now but flirt with Clark but still, she could not force herself to do that in front of weaklings like the bunch that surrounded them this evening.
If there was one thing she hated more than anything else was how weak she truly was in front of the real force and true experts in this cultivation world.
This was the reason why she had given up on her husband Ning Bao in the first place.
'The more i get to know you, the more i find out that my decision to follow you here was absolutely not a mistake.' Wan Fei smiled a little as she sipped her wine throughout the conversation.
Thirty more minutes passed of the usual chatter and Clark has gotten a better hold on the top dogs of the Lu Family.
Lu Jian was serious and very much adaptable to any situation which made him a great Patriarch in his own way.
