“The truth is that from the perspective of a warrior, w.a.n.g Zheng is someone that deserves respect.” Aurora had given a verdict in the end. w.a.n.g Zheng’s performance during the IG was something that he had to concede to when he recalled it.
“I have no objections with this point. However, these are two completely different matters. How could a person from Earth deserve to be with Her Highness the Princess?”
“I feel that the most important thing is the heart.” Oz suddenly took the contrarian view. “I feel that w.a.n.g Zheng has a form of charisma that we do not have.”
“Such things are hard to define. Let’s not talk about it. Come and have a drink for the honor of our empire!”
The Mayans, Olivios, and… w.a.n.g Zheng!
“Have you made up your mind about going to that place?”
“Yeah, and I believe you have already submitted your application too.”
“Olivios has already gone. I don’t ever want to lose again.”
These proud people would never want to lose again. The battle during the IG had changed the lives of many people.
w.a.n.g Zheng had arrived at the banquet in advance. This was basic respect for the host. As for the birthday present, w.a.n.g Zheng had racked his brains but still couldn’t think of anything. Considering Lan Ling’s current condition, she wouldn’t be lacking in anything. However, he still chose a crystal bracelet after shopping for a long time. There were three small stars on it and it looked great from the first glance. Therefore, w.a.n.g Zheng had chosen it. The present might not be worth much, but it was the thought that mattered. He rarely spent so much effort to buy things. After all, it was for his savior.
The Lan family’s mansion in Lan Kao City was full of people. The birthday of the Missy of the Lan family wasn’t a small event, and it had strong political implications. This was a gathering to showcase the official alliance of the new generation leader of the Lan family and the people of t.i.ta. Everyone was also interested in finding out if the people of t.i.ta would be supportive of the new leader.
The position of the Lan family on the t.i.tat.i.tan Star had been solid because of their relations.h.i.+p with the people of t.i.ta. The people of t.i.ta had also refused to interact with other humans. This was also the reason why other powers weren’t able to rise and had been suppressed over the years.
Many people were hoping that there would be a day when the people of t.i.ta were sick of the Lan family. However, the successful succession by Lan Ling had crushed their dreams. However, Lan Jiang belonged to the previous generation and Lan Ling was still a little girl. How much support she could receive from the people of t.i.ta would be hard to determine at this moment.
There were some who came with the intent to congratulate, while there were also others with bad intentions. This had resulted in the birthday banquet becoming a huge gathering.
w.a.n.g Zheng had arrived on foot. The entrance was already full of various luxurious cars. The t.i.tat.i.tan Star wasn’t a poor place. This was especially the case for the large powers.
When he entered, the servants at the entrance were constantly scrutinizing w.a.n.g Zheng.
The guests who were here today were either n.o.bles or rich people. This brat looked too ordinary. However, his invitation was real and the servants did not dare to show any disrespect. After a thorough check, w.a.n.g Zheng was allowed into the place.
The large garden party had already started. The guests who had arrived were having small talks in groups of three and five. w.a.n.g Zheng had originally thought that Lan Ling had arrived, but he couldn’t spot the Missy of the Lan family. Moreover, there wasn’t anyone in the place that he knew.
The key point was that everyone was either in suits and dress shoes or dressed elegantly. This was a real party… Although w.a.n.g Zheng had a neat outfit, he looked more like part of the unofficial service crew.
Luckily, w.a.n.g Zheng had always been calm and composed. He was attending Lan Ling’s banquet because there were things he wanted to discuss with Lan Ling. It was necessary to make such a trip. Moreover, Rara Durai and the rest might come here too, and he missed them after not seeing them for a long time.
w.a.n.g Zheng found a relatively secluded place so as to not affect the atmosphere around others.
This also prevented others from interacting with him. w.a.n.g Zheng felt more at ease this way. However, he had miscalculated a little. Although the banquet was to start at six, the host would be slightly late. Therefore, he had arrived too early.
The number of people gradually increased. What made w.a.n.g Zheng surprised was that he finally saw someone he was familiar with.
Captain Red Fox!
The Red Fox was in a s.e.xy, evening dress. With her s.e.xy and well-endowed figure, it was definitely attracting many eyes. Normally, a well-endowed figure with a bright red dress would seem too cheap. However, with the soldier aura being exuded by the Red Fox, it gave others a cold and alluring feel. Such a contrast was extremely eye-catching.
The Red Fox also spotted w.a.n.g Zheng accidentally.
What was this brat doing here?
“Captain, what a coincidence.” w.a.n.g Zheng had also not expected that the “matters to attend to” that the Red Fox had mentioned was also to attend the birthday gathering of Lan Ling. It seemed that this gathering was something big.
The Red Fox took a look at w.a.n.g Zheng curiously. “What are you doing here? Don’t tell me that you sneaked in.”
“How could I? I have an invitation.” w.a.n.g Zheng laughed.
The Red Fox was still very confused. Who would have invited him?
“It’s true. Lan Ling gave it to me…”
w.a.n.g Zheng knew that it would be a problem if he did not explain himself. Therefore, he might as well make it clear. Under normal circ.u.mstances, it was true that he would not have known Lan Ling.
The Red Fox didn’t panic and wanted to listen to w.a.n.g Zheng’s explanation.
“Isn’t that Captain Red Fox? You looked absolutely stunning today!”
A 40-year-old-looking guy in a black suit walked over. He had a refined look, but his gaze seemed to have looked through the Red Fox’s gown. The Golden Fox and Silver Fox were following behind him.
“Mr. Consul, I do not deserve your praise,” said the Red Fox faintly.
“Red Fox, even if you like this kid, this is too much. How could he be involved in such an important occasion?” He clearly knew that the Consul was interested in the Red Fox. If the Red Fox were to go all out and go to bed with him, he wouldn’t have great days ahead of him.
“Mature women always like younger guys. However, Red Fox, it seems that you don’t know how to differentiate when it’s appropriate to bring him along.” The Silver Fox laughed.
The Silver Fox and the Gold Fox had entered the final confrontation. However, they would want to eliminate the Red Fox completely and not give her any chance for making a comeback. This was also because the two of them knew clearly that the Consul, Ison, was still single.
“Have the two of you finished talking?” replied the Red Fox faintly. “If I’m not fond of the younger guys, how would I even be interested in the likes of you two?”
As she spoke, she pulled up w.a.n.g Zheng’s arm gently. “This man was the hottest person in the IG and will easily become our superior in the future. I was just trying to get on his good side.”
As she spoke, her well-endowed b.r.e.a.s.t.s sank into w.a.n.g Zheng’s arms. This wasn’t something that any figure could achieve. Because of compression, the shape seemed more alluring than usual, causing the trio’s eyeb.a.l.l.s to almost fall out of their sockets.
Ison managed to maintain a straight face and was clearly more composed than the Golden Fox and the Silver Fox. Those who engaged in diplomacy must have such means.
“Captain Red Fox has the freedom to fall for whomever. However, one can’t just enter this place without an invitation. If anyone were to sneak in here and destroyed the peace, Captain Silver Fox, shouldn’t that be dealt with according to the rules?”
“That would be a given, Mr. Consul. No matter what kind of background he has or the fame he once had, everyone here is an ordinary person. A soldier has to follow orders!”
The Silver Fox immediately said as he did not attempt to hide that he was trying to get on the good side of the Consul. One had to be direct if he was boot-licking. The key thing was that he knew the personality of Ison. He was truly a scheming person, and Ison was a hypocrite. They could be considered to be part of the same family.
“I have an invitation.” w.a.n.g Zheng did not mind being used as a s.h.i.+eld for a while.
“Oh, you have an invitation too. Where did you steal it from?” The Silver Fox laughed.
“Lan Ling gave it to me.” w.a.n.g Zheng laughed. “As for where did Lan Ling steal it from, I have no idea.”
The trio’s faces had changed. Even the Red Fox was stunned. Was he bluffing?
Ison and the two people were all shrewd people. Ison had taken the balanced approach of getting bribes and enjoying the beauties. When he completed his term, he could return home in glory. However, the Red Fox wasn’t willing to give in, and this had given him a headache.
“Brat, you have to be cautious as a soldier and not speak at will. If you do not have an invitation, get out now and don’t disgrace the Milky Way Alliance,” said Ison in a kind tone.
Looking at this situation, w.a.n.g Zheng could roughly understand what was going. How he spoke would depend on the person.
“Is that so? Today seems to be the birthday banquet of Lan Ling. Whether I was invited has nothing to do with you. Moreover, this is my off day. Do I not even have personal freedom?”
The Red Fox had not expected w.a.n.g Zheng to take such a hard stance and gave him a praising gaze. After all, she no longer had any hopes of becoming the squadron leader.
The three of them were taken aback and hadn’t expected that w.a.n.g Zheng would retaliate.
“w.a.n.g Zheng, as a soldier, you have to recognize the responsibilities you have at all times. Is that how you speak to your superiors?” scolded the Golden Fox coldly.
The Red Fox was of the same rank as him and had her own connections. However, surprisingly, a rookie was challenging him and was being presumptuous.
At this moment, the floor rumbled. The giants had arrived. Only the Lan family had such a large garden that could accommodate such a banquet.
When the t.i.ta giants showed their faces, everyone around looked over. They were all pointing fingers and commenting. Although they had seen the people of t.i.ta before, humans and the people of t.i.ta were clearly separated most of the time. Both parties led their own lives. Therefore, when they met once in a while, there would be nit-picking.
Rara Durai was looking around once he arrived. He had run over first after hearing from Lan Ling that Ada would be here too.
After examining the surrounding dwarves, he could spot many gazes that were making a fuss out of nothing. However, he was able to spot w.a.n.g Zheng among them quickly and ran over immediately.
The others immediately ran away in fear. Some of them even knocked over some tables. Did the giants go crazy?
Ison and the rest were also startled. The raging giant was rus.h.i.+ng toward them…
At this moment, the Golden Fox and the Silver Fox almost jumped backwards immediately, while the Red Fox took a step forward was ready to take action.
However, the giant slowed down before their eyes. The giant took a few steps to the front of the first person and bent down onto the floor.
“Ada.” The pair of copper bell-like huge eyes was yearning for something.
The entire garden went silent. Ada???
What Ada?
The humans around knew clearly the meaning of “Ada.” The rough meaning would be equivalent to “master” in human terms. Who were these people?
w.a.n.g Zheng smiled and patted the Red Fox’s back gently. He was a little worried that if the Red Fox were to exert more force, the gown would burst open.
Walking in the front of Rara Durai, w.a.n.g Zheng caressed Rara Durai’s huge head gently. “Rara, where are the elders? Why are you here yourself?”
“Ada, the elders and the Tribal Chiefs will be arriving shortly. I ran over first because I missed Ada,” said Rara Durai.
“Hehe. I will be a.s.sessing the results of your training later. If you have been slacking off, I will scold you.
“Ada, I have been working hard. Shan Meng can no longer defeat me,” said Rara Durai proudly.
Some time ago, he was able to truly defeat Shan Meng. He had a much better understanding of the techniques that w.a.n.g Zheng had imparted him than Shan Meng. Shan Meng wouldn’t be able to defeat Rara Durai with just strength.
