Super War God in the City

Ge Chusheng quickly walked forward and came up to Su Jingguo, offering his congratulations, "Congratulations to Old Su, may your fortune be as vast as the Eastern seas and your life longer than the southern mountains!"

"Bring forth the gift!"

Immediately, an attendant behind him handed over the gift box he was holding.

"Haha, I didn't expect the Ge Family to come all this way to celebrate this old man's birthday. It really adds to the celebration!" Su Jingguo laughed heartily as a servant received the gift and opened it before the old master.

Everyone looked closely, and it was apparent that it was a jade Ruyi over a foot long, which surely must cost at least a few million—a grand gesture indeed!

But everyone was somewhat curious and unsure which member of the Su Family had inspired the Ge Family to come.

Su Jingguo was in a much better mood, beaming with joy, he repeatedly said, "Very good, very good, put it away, I'll remember the Ge Family's kindness!"

"Hehe, father, this gentleman is a friend of my youngest sister's son!" Su Wenchang hastily introduced on the side.

As soon as these words were spoken, all eyes turned to Su Ting, particularly those of Su Wenrui and others, showing a hint of envy, even Su Jingguo gave Su Ting an additional glance.

"Hmm, seems this grandson really put in some thought!" Su Jingguo silently nodded to himself in appreciation.

Su Ting was taken aback, then all at once understood, and couldn't help showing a look of excitement on her face. It turned out this was a friend of her son Leng Yuan.

The youngster really brought honor to her; he didn't even give her a heads-up, this was supposed to be a surprise!

Many in the Su Family displayed looks of envy, which indirectly reflected the extent of Leng Yuan's social connections and relationships.

Ge Chusheng had no idea about all this and thought they were talking about Ling Fan. He suddenly felt doubly honored. Being a friend of Young Master Ling was something he hadn't even dared to dream of, and he would have been content even to be one of Young Master Ling's guards!

Su Ting immediately went up to Ge Chusheng warmly and greeted him, "What a pleasure, I didn't know you were a friend of Xiao Yuan; you must drink a couple more with us later!"

Ge Chusheng politely obliged but felt something odd upon hearing Su Ting's words, "Xiao Yuan? Your son is...?"

"My son is Leng Yuan. Aren't you here today because of his face to celebrate the old master's birthday?" Su Ting said proudly.

"Leng Yuan?" Ge Chusheng was utterly confused and turned to stealthily glance towards Ling Fan.

But this glance was a big mistake, as it caused all his hairs to stand on end; he saw Ling Fan's face sweep over coldly, looking very displeased!

Indeed, at this moment, Ling Fan himself was in a sour mood. He had never much cared for the Su Family, especially this Su Ting, and now Ge Chusheng appeared to be close to her, which meant he was naturally against himself.

Ge Chusheng shivered, feeling that things were about to go badly, and quickly left Su Ting behind as he walked briskly towards Ling Fan under the puzzled eyes of everyone.

"What's going on? What's he doing?" Su Ting was taken aback.

Even Su Jingguo was confused. It looked like this man was heading towards the third son's side—had Su Wenfu offended him?

Family Head Su Wenchang furrowed his brow, not understanding what was going on, and everyone in the room was also baffled.

Su Wenfu and his wife grew anxious, watching Ge Chusheng approaching swiftly, their hearts filled with trepidation.

After a few breaths, everyone was stunned as they saw Ge Chusheng arrive before Ling Fan, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, and respectfully said, "Young Master Ling, I heard from sister-in-law that you were coming to the Su Family to offer birthday greetings!

That's why I took the liberty of coming uninvited, which might have been presumptuous. I hope Young Master Ling won't blame me!"

"Sister-in-law?" Now it was Ling Fan's turn to be confused.

"Ah, it's Xiao Chubing!" Ge Chusheng said with an embarrassed smile.

Ling Fan was astonished; he hadn't expected Xiao Chubing to have informed the Ge Family about this, and he was puzzled as to what his wife was up to!

Meanwhile, the entire Su Family looked at each other in stupefaction, now realizing that the Ge Family had come for the sake of Ling Fan, not Leng Yuan!

Su Ting's smile froze on her face, feeling utterly embarrassed. She shot Su Wenchang a harsh glare, feeling that today had been quite the blunder.

Su Wenchang also turned pale, realizing he had made a fool of himself, and his gaze towards Ge Chusheng and Ling Fan became somewhat annoyed.

Feeling as if he had been duped by these two people, Ge Chusheng's earlier words were clearly misleading.

"Damn, did this kid come here today just to cause trouble?" Su Wenchang felt a bit angry. Explore more adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

Even Su Jingguo's face couldn't help but show some embarrassment. No matter how he looked at it, it seemed that Ling Fan had calculated everything in advance, just to slap the Su Family in the face. However, since the Ge Family carried some weight, he found it hard to lose his temper at the moment.

"Looks like you, little brat, have some background after all, to make a scion of the Ge Family bow and scrape like that!" Although Su Jingguo was annoyed, he also saw Ling Fan in a new light.

The other members of the Su Family, too, came to their senses and began to reassess Ling Fan—simply based on the fact that he could get Ge Chusheng to come forward and apologize while bowing and scraping, something not just anyone could do.

"Damn, what exactly is this guy's identity?" Su Ziming mumbled to himself, beginning to take Ling Fan seriously.

At this moment, not just him, everyone's perceptions of Ling Fan changed.

Just then, another voice from outside announced the arrival: "The heir of the Martial Association's He Family, Young Master He, has come to offer birthday congratulations!"

The crowd in the hall was taken aback once again. The Martial Association's He Family, Young Master He?

At this time, Su Wenrui grew excited. He was quite familiar with the Martial Association's Jincheng He Family, but he had never had the chance to meet the mysterious Young Master He. He had made special efforts several times but never had the fortune to meet him face-to-face.

It seemed his previous earnestness had touched the other party, and today they had directly reciprocated with a big gift. Young Master He had actually come in person to offer birthday wishes!

"Hahaha, it's Young Master He from Zhongnan! I sought him several times before but never expected that today, in my honor, he would come specially to wish my father a happy birthday. I'll go welcome him!" Su Wenrui's face flushed with excitement.

He immediately hastened toward the entrance, and upon seeing this, everyone else looked on with envy. They were all well aware of the prestige of the Martial Association, which was not something ordinary people could come into contact with, especially the great figures from Zhongnan in the background.

A role like the heir of the Zhongnan Clan was not someone they had the caliber to meet on a regular basis.

Su Ziming smiled, his smile bright and radiant, feeling proud for his father. With Young Master He personally coming to offer birthday wishes, the glory filling the room would be overshadowed by his own family.

"This time, my second uncle's family has truly stolen the spotlight. I fear no one will be able to outshine them. I never expected them to be able to invite the He Family's heir to come to offer birthday wishes!" Su Ruoxuan shook her head in secret, feeling that her father would also be overshadowed.

At this moment, many people looked towards Ling Fan's direction, as if regarding him as a clown. The surprise Ge Chusheng had brought to them just a moment ago suddenly vanished into thin air.

Compared to the He Family, the Ge Family—a secular family—simply didn't measure up and was not even worth mentioning in the same breath!

Just then, they saw a handsome young man with a middle-aged man by his side, walking into the hall carrying a large object covered with red silk.

Upon seeing that middle-aged man, Su Wenrui's face immediately lit up with joy—this man was He Tong, the branch president of the Martial Association's Jincheng He Family.

"Haha, Old He, this must be Young Master He, right? I didn't expect Young Master He himself to come!" Su Wenrui laughed heartily, feeling a great sense of pride. He had never felt as exuberant as today, even his eldest brother, Su Wenchang, had to step aside.

Then, even Su Jingguo couldn't help but nod to himself in surprise. His brother did well, he thought, pleased with the prosperous state of the Su Family.

"Young Master He, my name is Su Wenrui, and I have a good relationship with Old He!" Su Wenrui immediately boosted his own worth and appeared very close and familiar, introducing himself to the young man in front of He Tong with a smiling face.

However, the next moment, Su Wenrui's smile froze on his face as if he had become a statue!

He saw the young man pass by him without even a glance, as if he was merely air, heading straight in the direction of Ling Fan.

The moment He Feichen approached, Ling Fan shook his head with a wry smile. He was starting to understand what Xiao Chubing meant!

"Boss, I heard you were here for the birthday celebration, so I took the liberty of coming. I hope you won't take offense!" He Feichen approached Ling Fan with a respectful face.

"Uncle Tong, present the gift!"

The middle-aged man immediately walked up respectfully, uncovered the red silk, and revealed a top-grade red coral carved into a Phoenix soaring to the sky!

The entire hall was astonished. This object was not something money could simply buy—a truly rare treasure!

Yet, what shocked everyone even more was what the He Family's heir had just said.

The proud heir of the He Family actually called that youngster 'boss'?
