Chapter 7454 The Clan Has Arrived
Talented individuals and their mentors are elevated in status, and these banquets are only for close friends and family.
There's nothing else to it but to let friends and family know that a talented person has made something of themselves. With the military providing nutritious food, everyone can have a meal and everyone can enjoy themselves.
Mu Xu's mother also wants to freeload? What kind of person is she!
Luo Bi nodded her chin at a plate of cakes on the table: "Try it, it's still hot, fresh out of the oven. Cakes taste best when they're fresh out of the oven."
Wu Cheng took one to eat: "Wow, it's millet cake? This kind of ingredient is very expensive."
Luo Bi laughed, then her smile vanished. She wasn't one to tolerate anyone: "You're right not to call him Mu Xu. I don't know his mother. What's the point of her coming along? Doesn't she have any self-awareness?"
Wu Cheng nodded while eating his cake: "I just wanted to let you know."
After chatting for a bit, Wu Cheng went to find the children's group.
Luo Tang arrived soon after. He glanced at the cakes and dishes on the table and blinked. He had attended the banquets where Luo Wan and Luo Cha were promoted, but none of them were this extravagant.
Luo Tang walked over to the old patriarch and the others, sat down and started talking. This was a banquet hosted by the Luo family. Normally, the Luo family members would be the most numerous, but Luo Tang and Luo Huan glanced at them and saw that they were all children. They couldn't help but twitch their lips.
The kitchen started steaming baby crabs. Luo Bi knew how delicious baby crabs were, so she waited outside the kitchen and watched as Yan Shao cooked. He was so busy that the porcelain spoon he was using for frying cracked.
Feng Ling called: "Should I come over?"
He was in the defensive city.
"No need," Luo Bi said, still wanting to play.
Feng Ling could tell she was in a good mood, and a smile appeared on his lips. It was better if she didn't go; if he didn't go, his childhood friends and good brothers wouldn't have to come either, since Luo Bi didn't like his childhood friends and good brothers.
If anything is missing for the banquet, Feng Ling can send it over to the military headquarters. With him there, Luo Bi will definitely have access to the best ingredients from the military headquarters. After chatting for a few minutes, Feng Ling hung up the call.
In the middle of the morning, General Qi Lan and Major General Bai Nanfeng arrived. Lieutenant General Mi Yue also wanted to come, but there were too many prey, and they couldn't all leave. Lieutenant General Mi Yue and Governor Pei Jing were busy with military affairs in the defensive city.
As soon as General Qi Lan arrived, he sat down and chatted with Old Master Luo. They were related by marriage, but Luo Bi forbade the two families from having any contact, so they didn't even get to sit down and have a meal together. General Qi Lan didn't know what to say.
General Qi Lan, the old patriarch Luo, and the patriarch Luo were all shrewd people who came to support Luo Bi. They didn't talk about important matters, nor about the unpleasantness between Luo Bi and the direct descendants of the Luo family. They only talked about eating and drinking.
Luo Rui got up, picked up a plate of cake, and ate it while holding it.
"Want to eat?" Luo Rui asked Luo Huan and Luo Tang.
Is that even a question? Luo Huan and Luo Tang each took a cake and ate it.
Luo Huan ate with mixed feelings. Originally, the entire direct line of the Luo family could have come to help out and have a meal, making the whole family lively and cheerful. Why did they have to make it like this?
You can't talk about anyone. Several hovercars stopped at the gate of the courtyard. Luo Qiang brought the Luo family with him.
"Third Uncle is here," Luo Tang said.
General Qi Lan drank tea. The Luo family head and the old Luo family head exchanged a glance but did not move. This was Luo Bi's home, and they were just there for the banquet. If they didn't start arguing, the Luo family head didn't intend to interfere.
Luo Qiang didn't want to argue; he just wanted to attend the banquet.
Seeing that almost all the guests were children, Luo Qiang was taken aback, as were Luo Xuan's family. Then, looking at the food on the table, the eyes of the clansmen who had come along reddened. (End of Chapter)
