Chapter 315 - Xue Zixi Jade King Came One after Another
Someone voiced their unease.
“He couldn't possibly be the notorious Jiang Hao, the scourge of that family, could he?”
Indeed, this was the very image of Jiang Hao etched in their minds.
After all, three families had crossed this enigmatic Jiang Hao; two had been ruined, while the fortunate third held him in the highest regard!
At that moment, glances of pity were cast toward Wu Xiaofei.
Wu Xiaofei himself was so frightened that his face had turned ashen.
The invitation alone revealed the vast disparity between his standing and that of the Jia Family.
Now, with the Jia Family treating Jiang Hao with such reverence, the young mistress of the Heavenly-Mansion Tavern and the esteemed Jade King were certainly not to be underestimated!
Du Feifei, too, was filled with regret.
Having recently arrived in Tianhee City, she was familiar with the tales of Jiang Hao's renown.
She had initially dismissed the stories as exaggerated hearsay, unworthy of belief.
Moreover, Jiang Hao's financial status seemed insufficient, hence her decision not to extend an invitation.
But now, it appeared that all the rumors surrounding Jiang Hao were indeed factual.
Suddenly, the Jade King seemed to remember something and asked, “Eh? What were you all discussing over here?”
His gaze swept across the group, finally resting on Wu Xiaofei's face.
Wu Xiaofei immediately felt an overwhelming pressure—the kind only someone accustomed to power could wield.
Just then, a resonant voice called out, “Brother Soong, I had no idea you were here and missed the chance to greet you properly. Please, forgive me!”
With that, a middle-aged man dressed in a green robe made his entrance.
He appeared to share a deep bond with the Jade King, and they exchanged warm pleasantries.
Afterward, thanks to the Jade King's introduction, Jiang Hao was acquainted with this influential figure.
Du Zhongguo, the proprietor of a major auction house, was a man whose reputation rivaled that of the Jade King, known for his travels across the country.
Du Zhongguo then turned to Du Feifei and instructed, “Feifei, come and say hello to Uncle Soong!”
In Jiang Hao's astonished presence, Du Feifei gracefully approached the group.
“Feifei greets Uncle Soong, Sister Wan'er, and Mr. Jiang!” she said, and with a playful twinkle, she gave Jiang Hao a conspiratorial wink.
Noticing Jiang Hao's gaze lingering on Du Feifei, Soong Wan swiftly placed her hand on Jiang Hao's waist and sharply turned him away.
Jiang Hao quickly touched his nose and shifted his eyes elsewhere.
Soong Wanzhong watched Du Feifei with a sense of nostalgia, “How quickly time passes! Feifei has grown up so much!”
