That boy?
Is it Mr. Jiang? !
Gao Pengzhan stared at Jiang Ning with shock in his eyes. Just now he was introducing anecdotes. He never expected that he would eat melon in front of him!
"Ahem, Mr. Jiang, you are really... really tasteful. That Su Chengmu is the most beautiful woman in the north!"
Gao Pengzhan extended his thumb. Although he sincerely admired Mr. Jiang, he suddenly lost confidence in his heart.
Who in the north doesn’t know that City Lord Su gave the City Lord’s order in order to find Mr. Jiang!
I just hope that Mr. Jiang will not be recognized by then!
On Jiang Ning's side, he also closed his eyes and rested his mind, thinking that when he performed the mission, he caused a lot of trouble.
But I can't blame myself, I can only blame those old guys who taught me that men should learn to flirt with women outside!
Flirting!
Who would have thought that there are so many evil fates!
Xiao Zixuan glared at Jiang Ning and became so angry that she said no more.
As the car drove from the south to the north, the greenery on the road gradually disappeared, replaced by the vast land and the unique scenery of the north.
The further north we go, the colder the weather becomes.
The car drove for a full day and night, until early the next morning, several people woke up slightly and found that Spring City had arrived.
Spring City is also known as the City of Steel.
The center of the city is blooming with flowers, and outside the city there are heavy industrial factories and abundant oil.
The Bentley drove into Spring City and finally stopped in front of the Swan International Hotel.
"Mr. Jiang, Xiao Yixian, the north is not as good as the south. Although it is not freezing yet, it is still snowy. I have sent someone to book a room in this big hotel and prepare warm clothes. I hope you two can Put it on first.”
"The coming-of-age ceremony will be held grandly tomorrow. Today, our Gao family will first welcome you two to the Swan Hotel..."
Guests and hosts do as they please, and Jiang Ning is relatively satisfied with Gao Pengzhan's arrangements.
After the two got off the car, they followed the driver to the hotel room. After changing their clothes, they followed the driver towards the dinner.
At this time, in a VIP private room of the Swan International Hotel, several people were sitting together with extremely serious expressions.
"In the past ten years, our Gao family has been at the bottom of every adult ceremony, and many people have laughed at us behind our backs. This time, we must get a good ranking! At least we must be in the top three!"
The man who spoke was in his forties, with a very recognizable Chinese character face, gray hair, and was wearing a loose and comfortable Tang suit. He was not angry or intimidating just sitting there.
This man's name is Gao Xin'ou, he is the youngest son of the current head of the Gao family, and he is deeply loved by the head of the family.
And his status is naturally much higher than Gao Pengzhan.
"Little brother, don't worry. This time, our Gao family has full confidence. What's more, with nephew Gao Mo here, the top three... are guaranteed."
The Gao Mo this person mentioned was Gao Xinou's son.
"Hahaha, that's true. My incompetent son just passed his adult ceremony this year. Not only is he excellent in character and academics, we in the north focus on martial arts and have achieved some success. With him here, it won't be a problem!"
Gao Xinou smiled when he heard someone praising his son.
"Brother Gao Mo, you are the pride of our Gao family. With you here, nothing will be a problem."
On the table, a thin and handsome young man sat with an indifferent expression.
This son is Gao Mo, Gao Xinou's son.
The girl who spoke next to Gao Mo was named Gao Rou. She was a daughter of the Gao family and one of the people participating in the coming-of-age ceremony.
And her father is Gao Pengzhan!
Gao Rou is eighteen years old, the same age as Gao Mo. She has delicate facial features and a tall stature. At first glance, her fair and tender face looks like the face of her first love in school.
And Gao Rou's dress also favors students, long sleeves, jeans, and sneakers.
Among the members of the Gao family, Gao Rou is excellent in both character and learning, and is also extremely outstanding in martial arts. It can be said that he is no worse than Gao Mo.
But the difference in status caused her to be ignored.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Gao Rou's eyes were slightly red, and she secretly clenched her fists and said nothing.
"I heard that Pengzhan brought back a medical master this time, and even Xiao Yixian is here!"
Gao Xin'ou narrowed his eyes, glanced at Gao Rou, but asked about someone else.
"Hmph, the medical immortals in the south are just famous. Only the miracle doctors from our northern clans are the ones who attract the attention of thousands of people and are highly respected. A little girl is nothing!"
"This Gao Pengzhan doesn't do anything serious all day long, he only knows how to wander around outside. The old man gave him a role as the head of a collateral family, and he really takes himself seriously! If he has that kind of time, he might as well go home and do business!"
"Who says it's not the case? A collateral line is always a collateral line, and a direct line is always a direct line. If you always want to make a name for yourself, you must have real ability! If he can find any master, he is probably a liar!"
The older people at the table spoke as if no one else was there, unscrupulously, and didn't care at all that Gao Pengzhan's daughter Gao Rou was present.
The little girl was of a very low generation, her eyes were red, but she was powerless. She could only lower her head and pretend as if nothing had happened.
"Haha, everyone, you can't say that. The Gao family is a talker, and he has done a lot of work for us in these years. In the eyes of outsiders, he is a direct descendant of our Gao family!"
"What's more, I heard... that he found an expert who can crack the raw bone breaking ointment? Even the old man was alarmed!"
"If he succeeds in this matter, his status in the Gao family will probably be higher than that of everyone here! Don't forget, the old man only hires people based on their ability!"
Gao Xin'ou smiled half-heartedly, seemingly praising him, but in fact he was secretly hurting Gao Pengzhan for daydreaming.
How hard does this guy work? No one can surpass himself in status! My father once said, just draw a cake to give the dog hope every day!
And he also looked down on Gao Pengzhan from the bottom of his heart, a useless person from the side? Want to eat swan meat? Dreaming!
Everyone smiled slightly, their eyes full of joking, and they obviously didn't take Gao Pengzhan seriously.
Sideline!
Isn't it just a thankless part-time job?
Then, Gao Xinou looked at Gao Rou and pretended to be concerned: "Xiaorou, you don't need to be nervous about tomorrow's coming-of-age ceremony."
Seeing Gao Xin'ou talking to him, Gao Rou hurriedly said: "Thank you uncle for your concern. I...I'm not nervous."
Gao Xin'ou narrowed his eyes and smiled. He didn't want to care about this direct daughter, but had other agendas: "Xiaorou, I know you have a good foundation. You also know that the adult ceremony competitions are all random. Beat your opponent. If you meet your brother Gao Mo...you know what to do!"
Gao Rou's beautiful eyes flickered. The ranking in the coming-of-age ceremony represents the importance of the Gao family in the future. Back then, her father became the direct head of the family based on his strength!
And now Gao Xinou's words, aren't they just asking him to admit defeat?
Gao Rou didn't want to agree, but the other party stared at her, and for a moment she didn't know what to do!
At this moment, someone knocked on the door and came in, interrupting Gao Xinou's behavior of forcing people to submit.
