Chapter 226: Su Family Banquet

At the Su family banquet.

Wang Haoran sat on the second floor, eagerly observing the crowd below.

After encountering Chen Muyu, Wang Haoran had learned more about her from Su Yan.

According to Su Yan, Chen Muyu was a member of the Chen family, the top family among the four major families in T City, and the only daughter of the family head, Chen Xiongtian.

As for Chen Xiongtian, he was considered the top expert among the prominent families in T City.

Although he was also at the later stage of Dark Energy like Su Yaoguo, he was younger, stronger, and known for his ruthless nature.

Back then, shortly after Chen Muyu was born, Chen Xiongtian was ambushed by enemies, resulting in the death of his severely injured wife.

Out of guilt, Chen Xiongtian never remarried and doted on his daughter, fulfilling her every wish.

This upbringing made Chen Muyu spoiled and headstrong, enjoying the excitement and meddling in others’ affairs.

Given the Chen family’s backing, she was known as the “Little Witch” among the rich second-generation circles in T City.

Wang Haoran summarized the known information—

Long Ao, a villain at the later stage of Dark Energy, skilled in medicine, had spent time abroad, and now came to T City alone. Through his medical skills, he got acquainted with Su Yaoguo and even won the favor of the Chen family’s only daughter.

With a name like “Long Ritian” that’s so arrogant and domineering, without the protagonist’s halo, he was bound to face setbacks.

So when would the protagonist appear?

Wang Haoran didn’t want to wait patiently, so he decided to lure them out.

He had Su Yaoguo come up with a reason to throw a banquet and invite people from the prominent families in T City.

As long as an invitation was sent to the Chen family and Chen Muyu knew Long Ao would be there, she would most likely attend.

With the female protagonist and the villain present, the protagonist would likely show up!

Thus, Su Yaoguo quickly arranged everything.

***

Now, on the second floor, Wang Haoran had prepared a hidden spot perfect for watching the show.

Wang Haoran, Su Yan, Zhou Yingying, and Chen Ranni were all there, leisurely having tea and chatting.

Su Yan was curious, “Darling, why does my grandpa listen to you so much?”

“…Your grandpa… forget it, let’s not talk about it!”

“Yan’er, let’s just wait and watch the show!”

Wang Haoran pulled Su Yan into his arms, brushing off the topic.

He really didn’t know how to answer.

Because back then—

Although Wang Haoran had subdued Su Yaoguo, he was still Su Yan’s grandfather, so it was only natural to discuss things.

So, Su Yaoguo took the chance to make a request.

“No problem!”

“But… after it’s done, you have to perform an ‘Airborne Ascension’ for me!”

“…Airborne Ascension?” Wang Haoran was puzzled.

“That’s right! I heard Grandmasters can lift off the ground from a standing position!”

“…It’s just using internal energy to temporarily suspend in the air… why do you want to see that?”

“Because it’s amazing! I’ve wanted to learn it since I was a kid!”

Su Yaoguo’s eyes lit up, but then he sighed.

“Sigh, my talent is poor; I’ve only reached Dark Energy at this age, far from Grandmaster level.”

“And if I asked a Grandmaster at the Special Management Bureau to perform it, I’d probably get beaten up.”

“So…”

“Grandson-in-law, perform it for me!”

“…………Okay!”

—Thinking of Su Yaoguo’s request, Wang Haoran felt speechless.

However, as Wang Haoran was playfully teasing Su Yan while watching Su Yaoguo warmly greet the guests below, familiar faces appeared.

Long Ao, Long Ritian.

“…You’re a villain, yet you wear a tank top… can’t you see everyone’s looking down on you!”

“You think just because you’ve got a crooked smile, you’re the Crooked-Mouthed Dragon King!”

Not long after Long Ao arrived, Chen Muyu entered as well.

“…Tsk, you’re wearing my Yan’er’s clothes again!”

Wang Haoran remembered every outfit he had picked for Su Yan vividly.

He had thought it before, and now seeing it again, it was obvious that Chen Muyu was wearing an outfit identical to one Su Yan wore during her performances, even the hairstyle and shoes were similar!

Speechless!

Do you even have the figure to pull off that outfit?

As the only daughter of the Chen family, Chen Muyu naturally became the center of attention upon arrival.

Wang Haoran noticed that she was followed by a subordinate holding a gift.

Dressed in a suit, he looked very ordinary and inconspicuous.

But in the quest to find the protagonist, Wang Haoran wouldn’t let anyone slip by, even if a dog barged in, he would “identify” it, so naturally, he wouldn’t miss this guy.
