Chapter 608

The third young master of the Kong family suddenly started a confrontation, making Old Master Song feel quite awkward.

He knew that the Song family's strength could not compare to the Kong family of Jingcheng, which was why he was careful and polite in every way. But being polite was only out of courtesy, not because he really wanted to use this opportunity to cling to the Kong family.

After all, the old master had seen everything in his life, having weathered many storms, so he could see at a glance what the third young master of the Kong family's purpose was in coming today.

Regardless of how the Kong family wanted to cooperate with the Song family, this third young master of the Kong family definitely had designs on his granddaughter, Song Song Wanting.

If it were in the past, if the Kong family really wanted to marry into the Song family, he would have been too excited to contain himself.

But now, he really had no interest in them.

Because in Old Master Song's eyes, the best candidate for a grandson-in-law was the unassuming Master Ye, Ye Chen, who was right there.

If Master Ye, Ye Chen, could become his grandson-in-law, he wouldn't trade it even if he were offered the wealth of the world's richest man.

And what was even more rare was that his granddaughter was also deeply infatuated with Master Ye.

If it weren't for Master Ye's Soul-Returning Pill, he would probably be on the verge of death by now; how could he have such a fit and healthy body?

Therefore, in Old Master Song's eyes, no one in this world could compare to Ye Chen.

Because what Ye Chen could bring him was precious life.

Seeing this, Song Song Song Tianming on the side was afraid that his father would offend the young master of the Kong family, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Oh, thank you so much, Young Master Kong. This gift is so precious; I'm sure Song Wanting must like it very much. However, this child has a rather dull personality and isn't very good with words, so as her uncle, I will accept this gift on her behalf and also thank Young Master Kong for her!"

Song Song Wanting wanted to speak, but Old Master Song gave her a wink.

Old Master Song whispered in her ear: "Song Wanting, one does not hit a smiling face. Let's accept it for now and return it to him privately after the banquet."

Seeing that her grandfather had said so, Song Song Wanting had no choice but to nod.

Afterward, the third young master of the Kong family, accompanied by Song Song Song Tianming and Song Rongyu, entered the banquet hall and took his seat.

The third young master of the Kong family was arrogant and looked down on everyone, only greeting Chen Chen Zekai: "Mr. Chen, shall we sit together?"

Chen Chen Zekai subconsciously wanted to look at Ye Chen, but he remembered that Ye Chen did not want to reveal his identity, and it was indeed inappropriate for him to have too much public interaction with him.

Just as he was about to refuse the third young master of the Kong family, Old Master Song on the side said to Ye Chen: "Master Ye, let's sit together!"

There were six banquet tables in the hall, but one of them was the main guest table.

The main guest table, as the name suggests, is where the host entertains the most distinguished guests.

Old Master Song, along with Song Song Song Tianming, Song Rongyu, and Song Song Wanting, sat at the ten-seat main guest table.

The remaining six seats had to be ranked according to the strength of everyone present.

Song Song Song Tianming and Song Rongyu naturally invited the third young master of the Kong family to take a seat, and Old Master Song invited Ye Chen to sit at this table as well.

The remaining four seats were given to Chen Chen Zekai, Wang Wang Wang Dongxue, Li Tailai, and Qin Gang.

Although Wang Zhenggang's strength was also not bad, it was slightly inferior to Qin Gang's, so he could not sit at the main guest table.

Little Little Chili, Qin Qin Qin Aoxue, although she really wanted to follow her father and sit at the same table as Master Ye, Ye Chen.

But because the seats were already full, she could only sit with Chen Chen Chen Xiaozhao.

Before the banquet started, the old master stood up first and gave a speech of thanks.

When thanking the guests present in his speech, Old Master Song started by saying: "Today, I am very grateful to Master Ye for honoring us with his presence at my granddaughter's birthday banquet!"

As soon as Old Master Song said this, the expression of the third young master of the Kong family, who was sitting at the main guest table, immediately turned dark.

What the hell?

Was this old man of the Song family so unappreciative? He had graced them with his presence at her granddaughter's birthday banquet, yet he didn't put him at the top of his thanks?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at Ye Chen, who was at the same table.

This kid looked plain and unremarkable; he had no idea why the old man of the Song family was so polite to him.

After Old Master Song finished thanking Ye Chen, he then thanked the third young master of the Kong family.

Seeing that he had been snatched of the center spot by a nobody like Ye Chen, the third young master of the Kong family was furious.

Just then, Old Master Song finished his speech and asked Song Song Wanting to go up and express her thanks as well.

The dignified and elegant Song Song Wanting, like Old Master Song, thanked Ye Chen first when thanking the guests.

Her expressive eyes looked at Ye Chen with deep affection, and she said earnestly: "I am very grateful to Master Ye for taking time out of his busy schedule to attend my birthday banquet; I am flattered."

After thanking Ye Chen, Song Song Wanting added: "Besides thanking Master Ye, I also want to thank all the friends who came today. Thank you all for your support."

After speaking, Song Song Wanting bowed to everyone.

The third young master of the Kong family was so angry his nose was almost crooked.

Although Old Master Song had ranked him second, at least he had thanked him by name for gracing them with his presence.

But when it came to Song Song Wanting, she didn't even mention his name, lumping him in with everyone else, which made him incredibly angry.

At this time, he whispered to Song Rongyu beside him: "What is that Ye Chen's background?"

Song Rongyu had always been very unhappy with Ye Chen, but he dared not neglect him. Seeing that the third young master of the Kong family seemed dissatisfied with Ye Chen, he went with the flow and said: "This Ye Chen is a rather famous live-in son-in-law in our Jin Ling. At the same time, he is a rather famous Feng Shui master, and it seems he knows a bit of traditional Chinese medicine, so people call him Master Ye."

After hearing this, the third young master of the Kong family couldn't help but curl his lip: "What kind of bullshit Master Ye? Knowing a bit of Feng Shui and a bit of traditional Chinese medicine, he dares to call himself a master? This kind of fake would have been killed countless times if he were in Jingcheng."

Song Rongyu hurriedly said: "Third Young Master is right. Our Jin Ling is just a small place. But don't look at it as a small place; the temple is small but the evil winds are strong, the water is shallow but there are many turtles, and anyone in this pond dares to claim to be a True Dragon."

"Claim to be a True Dragon?" The third young master of the Kong family snorted coldly and raised an eyebrow, asking: "Does this Ye Chen claim to be a True Dragon?"

Song Rongyu whispered: "I don't know if he claims it himself, but in the Jin Ling underworld, they all call him the True Dragon on Earth, Master Ye."

The third young master of the Kong family sneered: "He is the True Dragon on Earth? I, Kong Kong Kong Delong, am also a dragon, and a dragon of the Kong family of Jingcheng. Today, I want to see who exactly is the True Dragon on Earth!"

Song Rongyu hurriedly flattered him: "If Ye Chen really compares to you, he is truly far inferior. I'm afraid he doesn't even compare to a single hair of yours."

"That goes without saying." The third young master of the Kong family held his nose high and glanced at Ye Chen, sneering in his heart: "A stinking loser from a small place, yet he dares to steal my spotlight. Today, this young master is a fierce dragon crossing the river; I'll start by taking you down, and let this bunch of old turtles in Jin Ling open their eyes and know who the real True Dragon on Earth is!"
