C1376 The Birthday Feast Begins
The search was fruitless, and the three separated in the square.
However, Sima Chongting returned and caught up with Ye Hong.
He handed the bank card back to Ye Hong with a slightly embarrassed expression. "Senior Brother, thank you for helping me. I'll return this to you."
Unexpectedly, Ye Hong smiled faintly and showed no intention of accepting it.
"I'll take it as compensation."
Ye Hong smiled and returned to the room, leaving the confused Sima Chongting in the same spot.
"Compensate? What compensation?"
Sima Chongting kept scratching the back of his head, staring at the bank card in his hand.
When Ye Hong returned to his room, he saw Sima Zhengming waiting for him.
"Where did you go?"
Ye Hong told Sima Zhengming about the mysterious woman.
"Luring the tiger out of the mountain? No wonder..."
Sima Zhengming's expression was somewhat ugly.
"By the way, Daoist Priest, didn't that person catch up?"
Ye Hong suddenly asked.
"Don't mention it. That bastard also doesn't know what kind of evil martial arts he cultivates. He is as slippery as a loach.
I... I lost him. "
Sima Zhengming stood up and said lightly, "I always feel that something big will happen at tomorrow's birthday banquet. You should be careful."
After saying that, he left the room with an ugly expression.
Ye Hong rubbed his chin and thought silently.
...
On the evening of the second day, Sima Zhengming's 70th birthday banquet was officially held in the square in front of the Taiyi Palace.
At the main table, Sima Zhengming was happily chatting with a few white-haired old men.
Presumably, these people were all good friends of Sima Zhengming.
In the square, the banquet table was filled with guests who had come up the mountain to attend the birthday banquet.
As they were going up the mountain together, the disciples of Eight Trigrams Sect arranged Ye Hong, Sima Chongting, and Yan Lan to sit at the same table.
They were sitting at the same table. There were also a few guests whom Ye Hong was not familiar with.
Yan Lan was still as reserved as before. She just lowered her head and quietly ate the dishes. She did not get along with Ye Hong's words at all.
After Ye Hong's help, Sima Lu's impression of Sima Chongting seemed to have changed greatly.
The banquet had not started for long when the girl secretly joined the table and forced herself to squeeze out a seat beside Sima Chongting.
At the next table, Sima Ann looked at Sima Chongting and Sima Lu's intimate appearance and almost gnashed his teeth in anger.1
"Why?!
On what basis am I so much stronger than that brat Sima Chongting, but the sect master did not take a liking to me and chose that foolish brat!
Why did even junior sister take a fancy to him!
All of this should originally be mine! "
Sima Ann's expression was twisted as he glared at Sima Chongting.
He then stared at Ye Hong's back with an even more sinister gaze.
What happened yesterday made him hate Ye Hong even more.
Suddenly, Sima Ann seemed to have thought of something and the corners of his mouth curled up into a sinister smile.
He suddenly left the seat and headed towards the main table.
Many people were attracted by his actions. Their eyes were focused on him.
The main table suddenly quieted down.
Sima Zhengming seemed to be in a good mood. His face was red and he had a smile.
He stroked his beard with one hand and asked with a smile, "Little An, is something the matter?"
Sima Ann bowed respectfully to Sima Zhengming and said solemnly, "Sect Leader, a few months ago when I heard that Sect Leader's birthday was coming, I went to prepare early.
I know that Sect Master likes the Classical Music, so I went to the famous Classical Music family in the Linzhou City, the Duanmu Family, to ask for a zither. Today, I will gift it to you as a birthday gift!"
