Chapter 781: Xing Family of the Seven Stars Continent
Han Jintian frowned and stuffed his hands in his pockets. He said shamelessly, “Two billion? Are you drunk on fruit juice? Don’t I know how many congratulatory gifts our Han family has sent and how much it’s worth? If you hadn’t pushed Qingqing just now, this thing wouldn’t have fallen. Every grievance has its perpetrator, every debt has its debtor, so you should be the one to compensate.”
Han Jintian was cold and fierce. His fierce face looked scary. Feng Jianing was suppressed by his aura and felt weak in her heart. However, she was indignant. Xie Shihao and Gu Qingye were protecting Feng Qing in school, and now, even the young master of the Han family was protecting Feng Qing at her engagement banquet?
Feng Yuanzhou said, “Young Master Han, these congratulatory gifts were given to our Feng family by the two heads of the Han family. Although you’re the young master of the Han family, it’s not up to you to decide whether Feng Qing should compensate or not. Moreover, Jianing only wanted to keep Qingqing just now, so she accidentally touched her. In the end, Qingqing was the one who bumped into these congratulatory gifts. Feng Qing should compensate five times the original price!”
Upon hearing this, the guests all looked at Feng Yuanzhou as if they were watching a joke. For the sake of money, this person no longer cared about his reputation. He actually wanted to pursue the matter with his daughter. Moreover, he wanted five times the compensation. Five times of two billion was ten billion. He really dared to ask for it.
Feng Qing stood on the spot and looked at the mess on the ground. Her pretty face was cold. Just as she was about to speak, a person walked in from outside the banquet hall. Just as this person reached the door, Feng Qing’s absolute hearing knew that someone was here. She raised her head and was slightly stunned when she saw the man in the lead.
Everyone also looked at the door and saw a man in a white suit walking in with more than twenty people. The man in the lead had short black hair and silver pupils. He was handsome and had a cold and arrogant expression on his face. There was a faint smile on his lips, but it gave people a cold feeling. Even from afar, they could feel the murderous aura emanating from him. The man’s demonic silver eyes swept across the crowd and finally locked onto Feng Qing.
Feng Yuanzhou raised his eyebrows and questioned, “May I ask who you are?”
He did not know any of the people who came in, especially the man in the lead who looked like he had cataracts. He was certain that he definitely did not know the other party, nor would he invite the other party to the engagement banquet. Therefore, those who came uninvited were not his own people.
The guests were discussing in low voices as they looked at the man who walked in. They didn’t know who this person was to dare to walk in so openly. Although this gathering wasn’t a high-end gathering, not everyone could attend it. Unlike them, Han Jintian and Han Jinlu revealed surprised expressions when they saw the man walk in. The two of them even looked at each other for once and saw wariness in each other’s eyes.
The man with silver eyes walked to the middle of the banquet hall and looked at Feng Yuanzhou. He said in an emotionless voice, “Xing Wudi, the head of the Xing family in the Seven Stars Continent, congratulations on the engagement of the Feng family’s adopted daughter!”
The man who appeared in front of everyone had the kind of handsomeness that would make people infatuated with him. Moreover, he was born with an outstanding temperament. His entire body exuded a dignified aura. Just by standing there, he was like a high and mighty god looking down on all living beings.
The man said the words of blessing, but his voice did not have the slightest warmth. It even gave people the feeling that they had fallen into an ice cave. It was as if what he had said just now was not a blessing, but a death sentence. Feng Yuanzhou was stunned on the spot, his mind in a blank state. This ridiculously young man actually called himself a member of the Xing family in the Seven Stars Continent, and he was the head of the Xing family — Xing Wudi?!
“Seven Stars Continent?!”
Upon hearing this name, apart from Feng Yuanzhou, all the guests who had heard of this enemy were shocked without exception. Many guests even jumped up in shock, all of them staring at this man with silver eyes.
The Seven Stars Continent was a mysterious place located at the southernmost tip of Xia country. Ordinary people might not even have the right to know that such a place existed in the world, let alone stepping into the Seven Stars Continent. Therefore, the Seven Stars Continent appeared especially mysterious and tall. It was said that the people living in the Seven Stars Continent were all experts without exception, and there was no lack of strange people.
