Chapter 248: Here Comes the Boss

Chapter 248: Here Comes the Boss

Is Emperor Yan here?

In an instant, the five Patriarchs at the dining table stood up at the same time.

The other family members present also looked at each other in astonishment.

That Emperor Yan...Shang Shaoyan?

It's not that they made a fuss, it's that the master receives invitations every year, but never attends.

It's here this year!

At this time, the five giants headed by Li Guangming stepped down from the table one after another, and followed the steward to the gate of the manor.

Everyone tidied up their appearance subconsciously as they walked, for fear of neglecting the distinguished guests.

"Is it really Shang, Shang Shaoyan?"

"It's him, it must be him, besides Shang Shaoyan, who else can let our dad and the others welcome them in such a big battle?"

"I'm so excited, Shang Shaoyan is here. Xixi, take a quick look, my makeup is gone. Oh yes, lend me your lip gloss again."

A group of young ladies with fantasies in their hearts didn't even eat, and each took out their makeup mirrors and began to touch up their makeup.

There were fifteen members of the younger generation of the family present, seven men and eight women.

Except for Li Qiao and Tang Yiting who were eating sullenly, the joy of the other girls was beyond words.

Not to be coquettish, but out of admiration for the man Nanyang Shang Shaoyan.

A man whose status is above the Big Five is enough to make people obsessed and admired.

At this moment, Tang Yiting bit her spoon, tilted her head to look at Li Qiao who was eating sushi with her head down, and asked softly in her ear, "Hey, did you hear? The boss is here."

"Yeah." Li Qiao was still eating with her eyebrows closed, but if you looked closely, you could find that the indifference between her eyebrows and eyes had receded a lot.

Tang Yiting stared at Li Qiao's calm demeanor, and asked curiously, "Did you already know that the boss would also be present?"

Based on their relationship, it seems understandable for Qiaoqiao to know in advance.

Hearing this, Li Qiao pursed her lips and shook her head, "I don't know."

She really didn't know that Shang Yu didn't mention it at all when she was recuperating in the mansion before.

Tang Yiting glanced at her suspiciously, always feeling that these words were unbelievable.

The two whispered a few more words, and near the open-air restaurant, the Big Five left and returned.

But the situation on the scene has changed significantly.

At this moment, the five giants headed by Li Guangming walked slowly, surrounded by a figure with a bright aura and a majestic physique.

The man in the middle was dressed in a handsome black suit, with a small cold golden square scarf in his chest pocket, and the cuff button that exposed his sleeves while walking, and the color of the square scarf complemented each other.

Today's Shang Yu, with a dignified leadership posture, is more dignified and eye-catching when he walks beside the five giants of Nanyang.

Obviously everyone present is a dragon and phoenix, but his appearance took away all the focus.

In front of the long table, members of the five great families all stood up, each staring at Shang Yu.

Li Qiao also stood up out of politeness.

But she didn't look at Shang Yu, she kept her head down, and the latter's deep gaze only stayed on Li Qiao for half a second before moving away.

"Master Yan, please."

Li Guangming invited Shang Yu to sit down in a polite tone, and the steward and waiter had already replaced all the plates with new ones.

Shang Yu sat up first, and slowly unbuttoned his suit jacket with his slender fingers, looked around with his deep and piercing eyes, and his voice was magnetic and deep, "I kept everyone waiting for a long time."

Li Guangming called the others to sit down, and then said with a slightly cautious tone: "You are serious, we have just started."

Jing Hengsheng, the head of the Jing family, looked at the domineering Shang Yu. He was young but wild and arrogant, which made people dare not underestimate him.

His eyes flashed, and he raised his glass flatteringly, "Soon, it will be a great honor for us as long as you can come over."

Shang Yu briefly glanced at Jing Hengsheng, stroking the crystal cup with his fingers, and curled his thin lips slightly: "I was busy in the past years, and I haven't spared time to attend your party. I happened to pass by Tangxi Mountain today, so I happened to stop by to have a look. I hope Didn't bother you guys."

At this time, Patriarch Quan, after Shang Yu finished saying this, hurriedly said, "Don't bother, don't bother, please don't be so polite."

The five Nanyang giants were not groveling in front of Shang Yu, but they dealt with each of them cautiously.

Next, the five of them toasted Shang Yu in turn, and when they exchanged glasses, there was no lack of intentional flattery.

And Liuyun and Luoyu straddled shoulder to shoulder and stood solemnly behind Shang Yu, which added a lot of pressure to everyone's hearts for no reason.

Not long after, following the exchange of pleasantries between the men, several of the daughters on the table secretly looked at Shang Yu shyly and timidly.

That sharp-edged and stern silhouette is so handsome that one looks at it and wants to have a crush on it.

As for the other sons and young masters, facing Shang Yu's powerful aura, they sat upright and did not dare to make mistakes.

But the young master, who was still taking chances, looked at Li Qiao vaguely.

Jing Rui'an is the most.

...

In less than half an hour, the meal was over, but no one left at the quiet long table, and everyone sat firmly like a mountain.

Shang Yu gathered the sleeves of his suit with one hand, and lazily raised his eyes to look at the crowd, "You don't have to be restrained, you can do whatever you want."

When the words settled down, the eyes of the five giants met, and Li Guangming waved his hands to the juniors, "Okay, since we're done eating, you can move around freely. We have a meeting in the afternoon, so we don't care about you."

After speaking, the scene was quiet.

But after a few seconds, Jing Rui'an took the lead and stood up.

If there is one, there will be two, and then others leave one after another.

At this time, Li Qiao folded her legs against the back of the chair, raised her eyelids slightly, and cast her eyes on the few young ladies who were reluctant to leave.

She pulled her lips and planned to leave.

Today's occasion is not suitable for getting too close to Shang Yu.

However, just as Li Qiao was about to get up, the man sitting in front of him spread his fingers on the table with his tall and straight body slightly leaning forward, looking at her, he suddenly asked, "Miss Li, are you free?"

Miss Li!

This was the first time Li Qiao heard such a title from Shang Yu.

Shang Yu took the initiative to speak up, causing other women to look at Li Qiao with disappointment or scrutiny. Everyone's expressions were wonderful.

The elder brother who hadn't left the table also turned his head in surprise, his curiosity about Li Qiao only increased.

Even Nanyang Shang Shaoyan took the initiative to talk to her. Is this girl so attractive?

At the same time, several patriarchs, including Li Guangming and Duan Shuyuan, also looked surprised.

At this time, Li Qiao got up slowly, met Shang Yu's eyes, and smiled slightly: "I'm free, what orders does Master Yan have?"

Shang Yu shook his crossed fingers, and his deep voice seemed to have the mellow aroma of fine wine, "I've always heard that Tangxi Mountain has a beautiful scenery, and I want to invite Ms. Li to show me around, how about it?"

"Yan, Lord Yan, in fact, it's Li Qiao's first time here, and she's not familiar with this place at all, how about..." Jing Yuean, daughter of the Jing family, didn't wait for Li Qiao to speak, and her voice was sweet and greasy.
