The new guests were a man and a woman, and they were both old acquaintances.
The woman is Ai Xin, whose looks are no less than Du Keke's, while the man is " Mr. Liu," the Tiansheng Group who once caused trouble at Shi Yuanyuan's bar and tried to take Du Keke away.
Upon seeing these two people appear, Du Keke's expression immediately changed.
She didn't invite the two of them at all. Ever since that bar incident, she and Ai Xin, who were already at odds, had completely broken off their relationship.
Coincidentally...
After learning He Jiong Jiong's identity, Old Monster Liu was a little scared and didn't dare to hang around in front of Du Keke and the others anymore, for fear of causing any unnecessary trouble.
With both parties intentionally avoiding each other, they ceased all contact.
Du Keke will never see him again from now on.
That memory has long been sealed away in my heart.
I never expected Ai Xin and the other person to show up today, especially at my birthday party. It's obvious they came for me!
She was both shocked and angry, and stared coldly at the two men walking towards her from the entrance of the banquet hall.
We arrived.
Before she could speak, Old Monster Liu, who was being held by Ai Xin, preemptively said, "Congratulations, congratulations."
Old Monster Liu, beaming, cupped his hands in a smile at Luo Shan and said, "Master Luo, long time no see! How have you been?"
There was no real grudge between Luo Shan and Old Monster Liu; in fact, they had a brief "cooperation" when they "captured" the man in blue.
After learning of the collapse of Tiansheng Group, the other party did not join any other faction and chose to wander alone.
I even felt a little sorry for him, that this once-powerful figure was now past his prime.
Let's meet now.
Since the guests had come all this way to attend the banquet and were showing such respect, Luo Shan didn't lack the most basic respect for a True God of the Six Hundredth Floor. He took two glasses of wine and clinked them together with Old Monster Liu, and the two of them drank them down in one gulp.
This scene startled the other guests. It was the first time they had seen Luo Shan toast with someone since the beginning of the event. Who was this old man?
The inexperienced novices whispered among themselves, expressing their confusion.
Immediately, a seasoned Tower Climber in the know introduced him to them, "That's Mr. Liu, the former top expert of Tiansheng Group, the true god of the 600th floor!"
The novices immediately understood.
So it was a true god from the 600th level!
That's not surprising. You did the right thing. We should find a chance to go up and have a couple of drinks too!
The guests were all vaguely centered around Luo Shan, hoping to seize the opportunity to get acquainted with the new big shot after the two finished greeting each other. They were all Tower Climber, and who knew if they would run into each other inside the tower? It was always good to become familiar with the big shot. Even if the big shot didn't bring the tower with him, it would be helpful if they met him when they were exhausted and he could give them some healing medicine or even food and drink. At least that would allow them to climb a couple more floors!
As a result, everyone waited and waited, only to see that Luo Shan and the other man, after exchanging greetings, did not leave but instead chatted happily.
Old Monster Liu glanced silently at Du Keke beside Luo Shan, somewhat shocked. She'd made He Jiong fall He Jiong over heels for her, and now she'd managed to hook up with Luo Shan —this woman was truly ruthless and cunning!
Thinking back on what I had done to the other person, I felt a little embarrassed.
Because of his position, he was too embarrassed to apologize first.
So she gestured to Ai Xin beside her, released her arm, and continued chatting with Luo Shan with a smile, "Luo Shan is now the Academy's number one fighter, his strength has improved by leaps and bounds and is incomparable to what it used to be!"
" Mr. Liu, you're too kind." Luo Shan didn't deny the fact that he had made rapid progress after joining the Academy, and said with a cheerful smile, "You are my senior, and I still have a lot to learn."
Old Monster Liu waved his hand. "I'm too old for that. It'll definitely be the era of you young people from now on."
Since becoming familiar with Wang Wen Luo Shan had somehow picked up his way of speaking. Hearing Old Monster Liu's words, he habitually blurted out, "What are you saying? It already is!"
Old Monster Liu: "..."
The two had a pleasant conversation.
On the other end.
After receiving the signal, Ai Xin adjusted her expression, walked up to Du Keke with a smile, handed her the exquisite gift, and said, "The men chat, we girls chat about our own things."
As she said this, her gaze swept meaningfully over Xu Wa.
Among this so-called sisterhood, Ai Xin is undoubtedly the one who knows He Jiong's identity best.
Even Xu Wa might not be able to compare to her, since Xu Wa 'He Jiong work and only occasionally offers a few complaints.
Ai Xin had personally witnessed how the once arrogant Old Monster Liu finally yielded.
Later, he followed him around. Although he no longer had Tiansheng as his backer, his own strength was still there, and the places that Old Monster Liu frequented were all of a high level.
Through constant exposure, Ai Xin became fully aware of He Jiong's rapid rise in status.
He is well aware of how popular He Jiong is among high-end Tower Climber.
What kind of Insect Chamber -inclusive car fleet is this?
What are the ticket and train ticket copying and advancement options?
Although she couldn't understand it, that didn't stop her from seeing the expectation and envy in the eyes of those big shots.
He Jiong's identity has been confirmed.
Naturally, he felt a greater desire to be closer to his girlfriend Xu Wa, with whom he had a clear and serious relationship.
Ai Xin was very excited to learn that she would be attending Du Keke's birthday party today.
She was certain that Xu Wa, as Du Keke's longtime best friend, would be there.
Sure enough, we "unexpectedly met" here.
Quickly start by verbally acknowledging yourselves as members of the "sisterhood," thus bringing yourselves closer together through your shared identity.
Ai Xin's proactive attitude.
It will be interpreted differently by everyone.
When Du Keke saw this, she felt that her man was really amazing. He could just stand there and make his long-time enemy take the initiative to make friends with him.
What's this?
This is a blatant symbol of status!
But Nana sees it differently.
Nana's experience is different from Ai Xin's; she doesn't know He Jiong's top-level identity, but her understanding is slightly deeper than Du Keke's.
After all, when those young women who frequented wealthy neighborhoods chatted with her, they would definitely mention him within ten sentences.
Or perhaps they've heard that the queue to team up with him for the tower is already several months long.
Or he might see a veteran bigwig from the 400s or 500s toasting him at a bar.
Either I saw him shopping in the Second Region, buying things haphazardly in those designer stores.
Even if Nana herself couldn't guess He Jiong's true skill level, she at least knew that it wouldn't be lower than a certain tier.
This made her feel even more heartbroken.
She vividly remembers how she "brought together" Xu Wa and He Jiong.
He tried to steal a chicken but lost the rice instead.
Instead of breaking them up and replacing them, it actually brought them together as a couple sooner rather than later.
On what grounds?
Why should you, Xu Wa, be He Jiong fortunate as to receive He Jiong's pity?
In terms of looks, neither of them Du Keke.
He Jiong didn't even want Du Keke, which clearly wasn't what she valued most.
Apart from that, their figures were about the same, and she was even a little taller than Xu Wa.
They shouldn't have lost no matter how you look at it!
Is it really because Xu Wa had once been blind, while He Jiong, being perfectly healthy, failed to evoke He Jiong in her?
This is ridiculous!
Nana was completely baffled.
I've been holding in a lot of anger with nowhere to vent it.
Now, seeing Ai Xin, who is usually aloof, so actively joining the "group," and her gaze often intentionally or unintentionally sweeping over Xu Wa.
She's clearly another little bitch who knows He Jiong's identity and wants to curry favor with him.
Nana's bitterness intensified.
