Lu Hong nodded as he crossed the door behind as Li Jia Yi stepped out of the room, looking around for a bit Lu Hong stepped into the restroom before charging his phone. Half an hour later Li Hong stepped out of the bathroom only to see Butler Lin standing there with two Maids behind him.
Lu Hong internally wide-eyed as all two girls infront of him were national level godesses, Lu Hong calmed his mind as he looked at Butler Lin asking
"Uncle Lin, Please leave the suit here"
"Understood"
Saying that Butler Lin bowed slightly before signaling the two Maids behind to follow him, with that two beauties stepped out of the room with a hint of regret on their faces. Lu Hong locked the door behind them before letting out a sigh, walking towards thelarge box placed I'm the middle of the room. Lu Hong pressed his finger on the finger print scanner and with a click the door opened revealing a stunning black suit with colors shimmering under the light.

Few minutes later Lu Hong finished dressing stood infront of a big mirror in the dressing room, when a knock echoed from outside.

"Mom aren't we must going far the banquet, why so OP"
Li Jia Yi revealed a mysterious smile as she added
"You will know when you got their"
Lu Hong nodded still a bit curious, after helping Lu Hong put on his tie and shoes she took a photo of him and posted it in the family group. Before leaving Li Jia Yi turned around amd said
"Make sure you give a stunning entrance to night"
Lu Hong sighed as he waved his hand full of helplessness responded
"Sure, no problem leave it to me"
Half an hour later, Lu Hong stepped into the Rolls-Royce Phantom. Beside him Li Jia Yi seeing that everything was set turned to the driver saying
"Little Lu, we can set off first"
"Understood Ms. Li"
Saying that Little Lu lightly pressed on the accelerator bringing the vehicle back to life as it glided along the road.
At the largest banquet hall in magic city the lights are dazzling as many vehicles drow in as they were received by designated Butler. Soon a black Rolls-Royce Phantom came to an halt infront of a massive entrance, the car door was opened from outside Lu Hong adjusting his collar stepped out. Li Jia Yi walked to Lu Hongs side and linked her hands with Lu Hong's.

Feeling a bit uncomfortable under those gazed Lu Hong calmed himself as he strived forward, as soon as Lu Hong came into view all the girls and women's heart started pounding fast. Meanwhile several business magnets in the room unfamiliar with Lu Hong started speculating among them self.
"Who is that guy? and What's his relation with Governor Li?"
"Don't know let's just wait and see"
"Wait isn't master Long coming today"
"Yes, I heard he had a crush on Governor Li since they were in college but backed off after learning she get married to a very powerful family"
"Yes, I also heard that he left to the front lines after that and it's the first time he was coming back after 22 years"
Lu Hong with his keen hearing heard the glimpse of conversation and furrowed his brow as he subconsciously looked at hi mother who was walking beside him. Soon Lu Hong spotted his roommates amd some Familiar faces in the crowd. As the people gathered around Li Jia Yi Lu Hong slipped away before walking towards Song Zi Sheng and others.
Song Zi Sheng and others also spotted Lu Hong walking over and stood up making a space for his to sit down. At the table Song Zi Sheng, Li Song Dong, Zhou shi Hai along with Su Song, Li Song Shi and Wang Kun sitting gathered together chatting. Taking his seat between Song Zi Sheng and Zhou fatty Lu Hong opened a fresh bottle of water and drank it.
Lu Hong then turned to Song Zi Sheng asking
"Why are you guys early today?"
"Well it was just boring to stay at the home all day long"
Lu Hong nodded and was about to say something when he caught sight of Xu Shao Yi walking over looking all high amd mighty. Lu Hong's brow furrowed as he looked at Su Song who was sitting beside Wang Kun asking
"What I she doing here?"
"Ah, she came here as my companion. Sorry I should have inform you before hand"
Su Song said as he lowered his head feeling a bit awkward, Lu Hong waved his hand dismissively saying
"Never mind, I will go and get drink"
Saying that Lu Hong stood up when he heard someone calling him.
"Mr. Lu we meet again"
Turning around he saw a pulp man dressed in designer suit standing their with a glass of champagne in his hand, upon seeing the person Lu Hong gave a brief nod as greeted the person infront.
"Hello Mr. Xiao, it's good to see you again"
"Haaa, worthy of being a young entrepreneur in the city. I hope we can do business together again"
Xiao Tian Yang said as he looked at Lu Hong composed and confident words, the person standing before Lu Hong was the GM of Chang restaurant overseeing the whole Chang consortium in the magic city. As Xu Shao Yi got closer she recognized Lu Hong amd was puzzled as if to why he was here.
She composed herself amd walked out to So Song's side and sat next him. As she was about to act as a refined young lady when she saw Song Zi Sheng, her composer faltered and was about to lose hre sawhen she locked eyes with So Song who is looking at her filled with fury. As Lu Hong and Xiao Tian Yang were talking another man walked over as he breezed Lu Hong.
"Chairman Lu"
Lu Hong nodded as he pointed towards a relatively empty spot saying
"Let talk on the side"
Li Chung Tian and Xiao Tian Yang nodded as they followed Lu Hong to the corner, on the other hand Li Jia Yi was talking to the the ladies fom the rich family when a commotion broke out ahead. All turned around and saw a man in the majors uniform, with a sparks of gray hair in between walking over upon seeing this person everyone's eyes turned to Li Jia Yi who's face turned cold and indifferent devoid of her previous approachable demeanour.
The man unperturbed walked towards Li Jia Yi and stood infront of her extending his hand in greeting
"Long time no see Jia Yi"
"Hufff"
Li Jia Yi snorted as she crossed her hand in displeasure. Long Liang Ning unfazed looked around but didn't find that figure he was looking for. Turning back he looked at Li Jia Yi asking
"Is he back?"
Li Jia Yi eyes widened in disbelief but nodded in response, Long Liang Ning sighed in relief before adding
"Can I meet him?"
"May be later"
Saying that Li Jia Yi turned around and left the area as she looked around she spotted her son talking someone and approached.
"I think it better we rent out at the commercial area since the items in your menu are likely effortable for white collar workers to high-class merchants" "our chairman had already agreed to help you guys with what ever help you need in the future but the only condition is to make sure that Chang restaurant and Atlantis Hotels didn't clash during sales amd profits"
Lu Hong nodded before saying
"It's good not to have conflicts but Commercial area was the busiest area in the capital and I think it will be quiet a lot of competition for an unknown hotel to open" "so, we gave to device a suitable plan to take off"
Li Chung Tian nodded before adding
"I already gathered the info on all the restaurants and hotels that can rival our establishment. As for the suitable plan to remain in the top, I had some plans but not sure which one will be suitable."
As they were talking a figure quietly walked over and stood behind Lu Hong seeing the figure both Li Chung Tian and Xiao Sheng Gao stopped talking as they looked at the figure. Lu Hong sensing their silence followed their gaze and looked behind him. There a girl dressed in a Loli outfit standing behind him.
He didn't recognized the girl but sat on tiptoe asking
"Hey, little kid what are you doing here? Are you by any chance lost?"
The girl huffed as she pointment towards Lu Hong amd accused him loud enough to everyone to hear.
"Huff, I advice you to stay away from my sister-in-law and didn't blame me from throwing you out of the magic city"
All the surrounding business magnets and young masters who knows about his identity and the one who saw him entering with Li Jia Yi were are looking at Qi Sheng Yi as if looking at a clown while others who didn't know about Lu Hong looked at him as if seeing a drama.
Li Jia Yi who was not far away didn't get involved but looked at Lu Hong waiting to see how he would handle the situation. Lu Hong without any panic or anger looked at her as if watching a joke. After a brief pause he enquired
"Oh, might reveal who your sister-in-law may be?"
Qi Sheng Yi puffed up her chest as she revealed with a pride
"My sister-in-law mane is...."
Before she can complete a familiar voice came from behind.
"Yi Yi, what are you doing here"
In an instant all the eyes in the room turned to the voice, there not far away a man and a women stood looking at Qi Sheng Yi. When the women eyes fell on the person in front of the girl as her eyes widened in shock. But she composed herself amd walked over with composed elegance, upon seeing the two figures in front of him Lu Hong's eyes widened in disbelief.
As they drew closer the man also recognized Lu Hong amd quickened his pace. Before Qi Sheng Yi can speak Qi Quan walked to Lu Hong's side and greeted him.
"Hey young master Lu it's a fancy meeting you. I though you are not coming"
Lu Hong upon seeing Qi Quan and Bu Zou Ling together Understood most of the it but confirmed as he pointed to Qi Sheng Yi asking
"Is she the sister you are talking about the previous day"
Qi Quan feeling that something was wrong nodded as he enquired
"Yes, I everything alright. She didn't offend you did she"
Lu Hong waved his hand saying
"Not at all..."
Even before Qi Quan can breath a sigh of relief Lu Hong added
"She just told me if she ever see me with my teacher she will make sure I will not come back to magic city Again"
Lu Hong said as he pointed towards Bu Zou Ling making her feel a bit flustered.
"What?"
Qi Quan's voice rose few pitches as he looked at his cousin in shocked and disbelief, Lu Hong looked dead in the eye amd continued
"I hope your Qi family will give a reasonable explanation to my Lu family in two days"
Saying that Lu Hong turned to Li Chung Tian and Xiao Sheng Gao amd added
"I will come to office and look into all the proposals next weekend"
"Understood"
Saying that Lu Hong walked away without saying anything.
