It was almost 6:50 PM.
The banquet started at seven o'clock.
Walking outside, Gu Hengbo tugged at his tie, frowned, and asked Ji Xiao, "Is Ziyin not here yet?"
Ji Xiao's answer was similar to Liao Quan's. "I just called her. She's on her way. She'll be here in a few minutes."
"Yes." Gu Hengbo's jaw was tense, and his eyes were filled with anger. However, he could only endure it.
Thinking of sothing, he asked, "Where are the WLA mbers? Why aren't any of them here yet?"
According to the WLA rules, whenever a new mber entered their ranks, their nearby mbers would attend the celebration party. This was a disguised way of bringing new mbers along and getting to know each other.
Among the mbers Gu Hengbo knew of were Shi Fu and Zhou Zhou.
The two of them should co no matter what.
Ji Xiao did not understand what he was worried about. He looked at his watch and said with a disapproving expression, "Isn't there still 10 minutes left? They're probably all on the way."

At the sa ti, a plane landed at the airport.
Mo Xi waited for the man to get off the plane by the car's side. Then, he respectfully opened the door of the passenger seat. "Master Wang."
Ye Wangchuan did not have any luggage. He fastened his seatbelt as he got into the car, rubbed his temples, and tiredly asked, "You didn't let it slip, did you?"
Mo Xi went to the driver's side and got into the car. Upon hearing this, he pushed his gold-rimd glasses and smiled. "I'm not Mo Dong."
Mo Dong was the most simple-minded and physically agile person in Bright Gate. As for him? His martial arts might not be as good, but in terms of smarts, even ten Mo Dongs were not as good as him.
Ye Wangchuan stretched his back against the chair, took out his cell phone, and turned it on.
Mo Xi stably drove the car towards his residence.
Ye Wangchuan had yet to tell Qiao Nian that he was back. Thinking of the surprise he might give her later, his mood involuntarily improved.
It was May, and the weather in the independent continent was hot.
Ye Wangchuan rolled down the window, allowing the cool breeze to blow away his fatigue.
At this mont.
He saw the brightly lit Four Seasons Hotel from the corner of his eye. He asked Mo Xi to slow down and then pointed a slender finger toward the hotel. "What's the situation over there?"
Mo Xi slowed the car. He also saw many license plate numbers of the Independent Continent parked at the hotel.
He frowned. "Tsk, I was not inford that anything important was happening in the independent continent today."
However, Ye Wangchuan saw a few license plates of the Ji family. He placed his arm on the window and indifferently said, "Find out what's going on."
Mo Xi glanced at him and stopped the car without saying anything.
Two minutes later, he got into the car again and reported, "Master Wang, I've got it. Indeed, it's nothing major. This is a celebration party organized by Gu Hengbo and his n to celebrate Ji Ziyin's entry into the WLA. They've invited many people."
When he got out of the car to make a call, he had already identified many people through the incoming cars. However, not many were famous.
Ye Wangchuan's noble face was covered in light, and the corners of his slightly curled lips had a trace of mockery. "When did the WLA beco reduced to picking up trash?"
"Pfft." Mo Xi could not help but laugh.
Ye Wangchuan glanced at him. "Is it funny?"
Mo Xi looked up at the sky as if it had nothing to do with him.
Ye Wangchuan ignored him and made a call.
