Chapter 273: Why Is Qi Lingxuan Here?
After Tang Li finished speaking, she leaned her head against Qi Yihan and told him where she wanted to go for delicious food tomorrow. Qi Yihan replied, “We’ll go wherever you want to go.”
It instantly made the women jealous.
They looked at each other and stood up to leave.
Looking at the group of women leaving, Tang Li held Qi Yihan’s hand under the table and smiled. “Hubby, nice working with you.”
Qi Yihan smiled. “You too.”
Shortly, all the tables were filled with guests.
This kind of banquet was actually quite particular about seating. Even if the guests weren’t assigned their seats, they would find their seats according to their status.
Tang Li and Qi Yihan sat in a remote corner. This table was filled with small businessmen or distant relatives.
Although Tang Li and Qi Yihan were good-looking, to these people, looks were nothing. After everyone sat down, they glanced at the two of them and told each other about the big shots who came today, planning to find an opportunity to talk to them.
“All the big bosses in the city are here today!”
“Not only that, there are also many big bosses from other places. Look, isn’t that President Mo from Changyuan Group?”
“Yes, yes, yes. Also, that’s CEO Shen of Tianhe Group sitting over there.”
…
“Look, Manager Tan and Mrs. Tan from the Qi Group are here today too.”
“Who is that young man next to them? Mr. and Mrs. Tan seem to hold him in high regard.”
“Could he be a young master from the Qi family?”
Tang Li looked in the direction that these people were pointing at. When she saw the person they were talking about, Tang Li narrowed her eyes and tugged at Qi Yihan’s shirt.
Qi Yihan looked over as well.
Tang Li withdrew her gaze and asked Qi Yihan in a low voice, “Why is Qi Lingxuan here?”
“He came with First Brother.”
Although Qi Yihan didn’t meddle with the Qi family while on the trip, he was informed of everything he needed to know.
In a low voice, he told Tang Li, “There’s a big project here. First Brother probably wants his son to handle it, so he brought him here.”
“First Madam didn’t object?” Tang Li felt that there was something wrong with First Master’s way of thinking. Whoever First Master thought useful, he would show partiality for the person. This way of doing things would naturally make others hold a grudge against him.
No wonder he would eventually end up miserably.
However, Tang Li did not tell Qi Yihan the endings of his brothers, nor did she allow Qi Yihan to interfere. Everyone had their own karma, and they had to bear the karma themselves.
Not that Qi Yihan cared about his brothers anyway. “Her objection meant nothing.”
Tang Li nodded and looked over. Qi Lingxuan was the only one who came today, so she asked, “Isn’t First Brother here? Why isn’t he here?”
“Something happened when he came here. He was frightened and is resting at his place.”
Tang Li immediately knew what had happened. “Were they hunted down on their way here?”
“Yeah.”
Just as Tang Li was about to retract her gaze, Qi Lingxuan suddenly looked over.
Tang Li did not look away. With the artifact spirit around, Qi Lingxuan should have sensed her presence long ago.
However, Qi Lingxuan immediately withdrew his gaze and looked like he didn’t see anything.
Qi Lingxuan didn’t expect Qi Yihan and Tang Li to come here either, but he didn’t mind. “They definitely don’t want to expose their identities now. As long as we pretend not to know they are here, they won’t find trouble with us.”
This time, he did not plan to confront Tang Li. He had more important things to do.
“But I kind of want to know if you can defeat her now,” said Qi Yihan to the Artifact Spirit in his mind.
During this period of time, the Artifact Spirit had absorbed a lot of spiritual energy. Qi Lingxuan had always been confident that the Artifact Spirit could definitely defeat Tang Li.
At this moment, the Artifact Spirit was trying to sense the power Tang Li possessed, but he could not sense anything. He said, “She is powerful probably just because she can borrow the power of all things in the world. You have to remember that as long as you become an existence that surpasses all things in the world, you will not be afraid of her.”
“I know. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here.”
Some time ago, a Nine-headed Eagle Bronze Artifact appeared here. It was taken out from the tomb by a tomb raider. Qi Lingxuan also accidentally learned about this, so he thought of ways to come here with First Master.
Of course, Qi Lingxuan would definitely not mention this in his mind lest Tang Li was eavesdropping on the conversation.
Actually, Tang Li was not in the mood to eavesdrop on Qi Lingxuan and the Artifact Spirit’s conversation. At this moment, she was listening to the gossip between the two people at the table beside her.
“Hey, I heard that a few more bronze artifacts were dug out from the seven-star tomb here. It’s said that those bronze artifacts are especially strange in shape, like the totem of a certain tribe.”
“Really? Then those archaeologists will be very busy soon. They probably haven’t examined the artifacts dug out from the tomb previously and now another batch came. I think the Imperial Capital will need to send another group of archaeologists over.”
“I think so. Whenever a batch of artifacts are dug out, the Imperial Capital will immediately send people here. But I heard that this time, they lost one item.”
“No way! Isn’t there heavily guarded? Who is so ballsy to steal from that place?”
“No one can say for sure. It might be an insider who stole it. You have to know that many countries overseas are eyeing the artifacts from the Seven Stars Tomb.”
“True.”
“Li, the wedding is about to start.”
Upon hearing Qi Yihan’s voice, Tang Li withdrew her attention.
The wedding was held in this banquet hall, and in the middle of the hall was the wedding stage.
Tang Li looked at the door.
At this moment, the door was closed and four bridesmaids stood by the sides.
As two of the bridesmaids pulled open the heavy door, Jiang Yunye appeared in a wedding dress, led by Mr. Jiang.
At that moment, many young girls said enviously,
“Wow, the bride looks so beautiful in this wedding dress!”
