Chapter 132

Facing such a client, the Crescent Hotel naturally treats them with the utmost courtesy.

Yang Lu revealed her own identity, and the hotel didn't even need to verify it; naturally, whatever she said it was, it was!

Zhang Lin slapped his forehead, feeling that he had misjudged the situation.

Although Yang Lu is a researcher, her ancestors were Liweisi and the leader of the Mountain-Moving Sect, Partridge Whistle.

The wealth accumulated over just these few generations is something that many of the wealthy people present couldn't match even if they combined their fortunes!

Even if Zhang Lin didn't yield this Sky Lantern to her, Yang Lu could still light several Sky Lanterns here herself!

Yet Zhang Lin had viewed the frugal Yang Lu as a poor scientist!

This really is...

Having eyes but failing to recognize Mount Tai!

The venue was noisy, and although many big shots doubted Yang Lu's identity.

Even Old Lady Huo was looking at Yang Lu opposite her with a suspicious expression.

However, Yang Lu sat steadily in the chair on the right, calm and composed!

Just this demeanor, remaining unflustered under the gaze of so many, was enough to make people look at her with new respect.

People like Old Lady Huo, no matter how arrogant they are outside, know the rules well at the Crescent Hotel.

So, although they were skeptical, they wouldn't shout and make a scene in public.

But others didn't have this patience.

A man in his thirties in a second-floor private room, with a stout build, grinned and said loudly: "Can you people at the Crescent Hotel be more professional? This person is clearly Professor Yang Lu from Shanghai University!"

"How is she the leader of the Mountain-Moving Sect? Your announcements aren't even serious. Why don't you apologize to Professor Yang yet!"

This person spoke very rudely, and many people in the second and third-floor private rooms frowned upon hearing it.

Old Lady Huo sneered and said: "What kind of thing is this person? Lecturing both sides with one sentence?"

"The Crescent Hotel is really going downhill, letting even someone who doesn't understand the rules in."

Yin Yin Nanfeng also stared at the man with an unkind expression.

She asked Sheng Sheng Sheng Man behind her: "Who is this person? I remember the private room he's sitting in belongs to the Chen family, but he looks like a stranger."

The Chen family of the capital made their fortune in semiconductors and can now be considered the industry leader.

Sheng Sheng Sheng Man immediately said: "Boss, this is the Chen family's son-in-law..."

A son-in-law?!

Zhang Lin became interested; a son-in-law speaking so loudly!

Could it be a "crooked-mouth dragon king" whose god-of-war persona has returned?

Zhang Lin immediately said: "Don't stop him, let's see what he wants to do."

At this moment, the emcee looked up at Yin Yin Nanfeng's office.

The side door of the office had remained still, so the emcee was certain that the boss didn't want to intervene.

Therefore, she immediately put on a smile and said: "Mr. Ye, whether Professor Yang is the leader of the Mountain-Moving Sect doesn't matter much."

"Since she has lit this Sky Lantern, my Crescent Hotel must announce her title."

"If Mr. Ye is willing, you can also light one, and when the time comes, if you want to say you are the leader of the Unloading Sect, we will announce that too!"

It must be said that the emcee's words were well-spoken.

She both distanced herself from the situation and didn't offend Yang Lu!

After all, Yang Lu was the one who lit the Sky Lantern.

This Chen family son-in-law was just flapping his lips and hadn't done anything; the Crescent Hotel wasn't necessarily going to make money off him.

Maintaining superficial politeness was enough.

Who knew, this Chen family son-in-law immediately slapped the table and stood up.

"What the hell do you mean? Looking down on me? Thinking I can't afford to light a Sky Lantern?"

"Then today, this gentleman will let your dog eyes see whether I can afford it or not!"

After speaking, this person sat directly in the chair on the right.

At this, the whole venue went quiet!

Everyone felt somewhat baffled.

How did a perfectly fine discussion about the Mountain-Moving leader suddenly turn into a lantern-lighting duel?

Although a lantern-lighting duel is even rarer to see than lighting a Sky Lantern.

But both parties in this duel made people feel somewhat confused.

One is a self-proclaimed Mountain-Moving leader, the other is a Chen family son-in-law.

These identities sound like a joke!

Everyone in the venue felt the scene was ridiculous, only Zhang Lin felt a chill in his heart.

He didn't expect the Wang family's counterattack to be so fast.

They actually found a son-in-law to light a Sky Lantern!

Matching this identity against Yang Lu is truly insulting.

If Yang Lu's lantern is outbid, the Mountain-Moving lineage will lose a lot of face.

Yang Lu, sitting there, also understood the current situation.

What was supposed to be a shocking debut has now completely changed in nature.

She has already lit this Sky Lantern, and no matter what, it cannot be withdrawn.

But seeing that everyone present, while shocked that the Chen family son-in-law lit a Sky Lantern.

The disdain in their eyes toward that son-in-law had never stopped!

It shows how poor the reputation of this son-in-law surnamed Ye is in the capital's circles!

Although Yang Lu was a bit anxious inside, it didn't show on her face, and she still sat there calmly.

Zhang Lin pondered for a moment and said to Sheng Sheng Sheng Man: "Go and pass a few words to Professor Yang..."

After Sheng Sheng Sheng Man left, Yin Yin Nanfeng still looked at Zhang Lin with some confusion.

"Can these few words of yours preserve the reputation of the Mountain-Moving lineage?"

"It doesn't sound special at all; can it suppress that son-in-law?"

Zhang Lin replied: "Whether it can suppress him or not, let's wait and see."

"In the eyes of some people, the Snake-Eyed Copper Fish may not be more precious than what I have in my hands."

At this moment, because the Chen family son-in-law Ye Fan lit a Sky Lantern.

The scene had become extremely lively, and many people familiar with the Chen family were whispering.

"What's going on with the Chen family, sending a son-in-law for such a big event?"

"Old Chen is also confused enough; today's occasion is more cautious than any before, everyone here has significant wealth, yet no one dared to light a lantern for fear of losing face, but their family is good, a son-in-law just went and lit it."

"I heard before that the Chen family had major changes, I didn't believe it, but now it seems it's not groundless."

"Old Chen doesn't seem like someone who can't see the situation, why would he let a son-in-law take the lead?"

Ye Fan could hear some of the outside discussion, but he sneered in his heart and didn't care at all.

He had completely controlled the Chen family over the past two years!

Although he is a son-in-law, everything in the Chen family is decided by him.

Over these years, after seeing the abilities of those mysterious people, he had long since completely sided with them.

Now, it's just following orders to light a Sky Lantern and buy an item.

For Ye Fan, it couldn't be simpler!

He also didn't care about the identity of the Mountain-Moving leader at all.

The Chen family previously wanted to squeeze into the tomb-raiding circle, but now that Ye Fan is in power, he thinks the Chen family's previous layout was all nonsense.

In Ye Fan's heart, tomb raiders are just a bunch of dirt-diggers and country bumpkins!

If they weren't starving, would they go tomb raiding?

Even the Nine Gates, which are currently all over the internet, Ye Fan looks down on.

He thinks they are just a bunch of low-class people!

Therefore, he lacks the most basic understanding and awe for Yang Lu, the Mountain-Moving leader.

Seeing that the other party is a woman, he wouldn't take her seriously even more.
