"Master, am I not very clever~"
Li Xiaoman tiptoed quietly, whispering playfully to Bai Yan.
The soft whisper in his ear was a delight for Bai Yan, the scent of Li Xiaoman’s perfu gently swirling around his nose, refreshing yet seductive.
"Mmm, clever! My little fairy, you are incredibly smart!"
Bai Yan chuckled softly, speaking tenderly by Li Xiaoman’s ear.
Bai Yan’s warm breath brushed against Li Xiaoman’s face, painting her beautiful cheeks with a blush.
She knew well that Bai Yan disliked revealing his identity, so Li Xiaoman kept it a secret from everyone. Unless absolutely necessary, Li Xiaoman would not disclose Bai Yan’s identity.
After all, this was not the Yunge sales hall where ordinary people ca and went; revealing a bit there ant little. But at this charity event in Mo City, filled with society’s elite, if Bai Yan’s identity were exposed, it would spread throughout Hua Xia by the next day!
Bai Yan would then have to face endless troubles, and his upcoming university life would surely be affected - sothing Li Xiaoman wouldn’t allow.
This silly woman, Li Xiaoman, was always thinking about Bai Yan.
The intimate gestures between the two didn’t escape the observant eyes of so, leading many politicians and business tycoons to speculate.
Being so intimate with Li Xiaoman, this man’s identity must be extraordinary!
However, since Li Xiaoman never disclosed Bai Yan’s identity, all could only speculate, no matter how curious and eager they were.
Bai Yan and Li Xiaoman made their way to the third floor of the Alice Hotel.
This place spanned five hundred square ters; many guests had already arrived, creating a bustling ambiance.
The hotel’s third floor, akin to a grand ballroom, dazzled elegantly with fine food set upon chic tables, while waiters weaved through the crowd with trays of drinks.
Everywhere were well-dressed n and won; the n gallant, the won charming.
On the third floor windows, reflecting brilliant lights, and beyond lay the velvety blue night sky, twinkling stars breathtakingly beautiful.
People gathered in groups, clinking glasses, discussing broadly, with laughter echoing.
In Hua Xia, there has long been a tradition of discussing business over drinks; although the dinner wasn’t for eating, it didn’t hinder communication among attendees.
Private whispers among the ladies, economic etings among politicians and business magnates were visible throughout the spacious banquet hall.
After all, besides fundraising through an auction, the other purpose of Mo City’s charity event was to expand schmoozing in high society and to boost Mo City’s economy.
Officials from Mo City wholeheartedly supported this, with many prominent figures attending the banquet today.
As soon as Li Xiaoman entered the hall, she drew many eyes.
Gradually, many gathered around her, whether they were influential ladies, business tycoons, or officials, all had serious matters to discuss with Li Xiaoman, the key person of Wanyan Company.
Many business collaborations, Wanyan Company’s investnts in Mo City, were the concerns of these figures, and today’s rare opportunity to et Goddess Li, naturally drew everyone together.
Bai Yan felt genuinely indifferent towards these people.
"Xiao Man, I’m going to sit over there."
Bai Yan whispered in Li Xiaoman’s ear.
Li Xiaoman’s beautiful eyes carried a hint of apology as she looked at Bai Yan; she yearned to stay with her master, but tonight’s etings were crucial for the future developnt of Wanyan Company, and she couldn’t just ignore these bigwigs.
After all, the developnt of Wanyan Company and the improvent of Bai Yan’s abilities are closely related.
Seeing those apologetic beautiful eyes, how could Bai Yan not know what was on his little female servant’s mind?
"It’s okay, you go do what you need to, I’ll just sit here nearby, have so tea, and you can find later. It’s the sa, I won’t leave this place."
Bai Yan said gently with a tender smile, whispering into Li Xiaoman’s ear.
"Mhm, Master, I will co to find you later!"
Li Xiaoman quietly agreed.
Bai Yan nodded and then made an excuse to leave the crowd.
Li Xiaoman watched as Bai Yan walked away, then she jovially engaged with the people who continuously gathered around her.
Bai Yan found a cozy corner near the banquet, sat on a sofa, casually ate so fruit from a fruit plate, ordered a glass of red wine from a waiter, and slowly savored it by himself, thoroughly relaxed.
At the banquet, people like Bai Yan were few; most were ford into groups around certain individuals, discussing matters in pairs or small groups.
From what Bai Yan observed, there were many such groups at this charity event.
So groups had just a few people; others had dozens.
The most eye-catching was the group with Li Xiaoman at its center. In just a short ti, people had gathered around her, forming a small circle.
The statuses of these individuals were high, including CEOs of leading companies in ZH city and deputy mayors!
This was not only because Wanyan Company was one of the hosts of tonight’s charity event, but also because Wanyan Company had a strong backing and a well-known na!
The leading companies in ZH city all wanted to establish business cooperation with Wanyan Company, and they all wanted to please Li Xiaoman, so naturally, she beca the focus of the banquet.
Conversely, Bai Yan, despite being Li Xiaoman’s male companion, was selectively forgotten by everyone.
However, Bai Yan was happy to be left alone, unbothered, observing the world of n and won—a transcendental mindset. To Bai Yan, all the attendees were re mortals striving for life under his gaze.
Bai Yan glanced over the others at the banquet with an indifferent expression.
Suddenly, a sowhat familiar figure entered Bai Yan’s field of vision.
It was none other than Master Chen!
Bai Yan smiled.
This Master Chen was the Qigong master Li Feiwen had invited to confront Bai Yan back in Mo City!
Back then, Bai Yan had fiercely scolded him, causing this Qigong master to have a sudden realization, turning against Li Feiwen and leaving in sha.
Bai Yan didn’t expect to see Master Chen here today.
Bai Yan looked with interest at the small circle where Master Chen was evidently the center, surrounded by several disciples, speaking solemnly with a few n and won.
The n and won beside Master Chen were all dressed ritually, and mostly older, ranging from mid-forties to over fifty, so even with distinguished white hair.
These middle-aged n and won listened to Master Chen with great respect, as if they were students being taught by a teacher.
Bai Yan, with his sharp senses, although they were quite far apart, could faintly hear so fragnted words from Master Chen related to Qigong and health preservation.
Huh, so Master Chen has now given up beating people and switched to teaching Qigong and health preservation?
Bai Yan couldn’t help shaking his head and chuckling.
