C1372 Invitation
As soon as they entered, they saw Bone Spikes, shadow, and Toron sitting on the sofa.
"Everyone hasn't slept yet?" Lin Nan asked.
"If you don't come back, how can we sleep?" The bone spur said with a bitter smile.
Qin Feng looked around and said, "It should be fine here, right?"
"You think too much. ... No one came here at all, so the base should not have been exposed yet." Ying said calmly.
" That's good. "
Lin Nan went straight upstairs.
"No, I'm so sleepy. I need to sleep well." Gufeng yawned as soon as he entered the room.
"Dragon King, do you know who is behind this?" Toron also asked.
"Yes."
Lin Nan nodded, but still said, "Everyone rest early. I will tell you in detail later."
"Sleep!"
The bone spur fell asleep on the sofa.
At around seven in the morning, Swallow woke up.
When she saw that everyone was sleeping, she could not help but sigh, "You must have had a lot of fun last night."
Everyone slept for a long time.
It was only when it was evening that Lin Nan got up from the bed in a daze.
He pulled open the curtains and walked to the balcony. He looked at the sunset on the horizon and said with a bitter smile, "If this continues, we will become night owls that come out at night."
Lin Nan followed the sunset and saw the end of the horizon. He saw a red car appearing in his field of vision.
The car was heading towards the villa.
"An uninvited guest?"
Lin Nan suddenly became alert.
However, when the car approached, Lin Nan smiled, "So it's an old friend."
The car stopped in front of the villa's door. A light blue Huo Qi Ling got out of the car and walked towards the villa.
Lin Nan quickly went down the corridor. "Get up, there's a guest!"
Swallow, who was busy in the yard, was the first to see Huo Qi Ling. She immediately shouted, "Miss Huo!"
Huo Qiling smiled elegantly and said, miss Huo!" Hello, is Lin Nan here?"
"Brother Nan, he's at home. I just don't know if he's up yet..."
Swallow said and could not help looking at the living room.
"Of course he has woken up."
Lin Nan walked to the yard and said with a smile, "Miss Huo, you have come. How can I not come out to welcome you?"
"Long time no see."
Huo Qiling looked at Lin Nan and revealed a charming smile.
"A super beauty."
Gu Feng, who was in the living room, almost stared with his eyes wide open.
Such a super beauty was not inferior to a celebrity at all.
Qin Feng introduced her to him, "Eldest Lady of the Huo family, one of the four big families in Yanjing, has helped us a lot."
"Is there a story?" Gu Feng's curiosity was aroused.
Lin Nan couldn't be bothered with him gossiping. He led Huo Qiling into the house.
"Why are you here today?" Lin Nan asked with a smile.
"What's wrong? You don't forget to dig when you drink water. You forgot about me so quickly?" Huo Qiling blamed him playfully.
"The relationship between the two of them is not ordinary!"
Gu Feng, who was eavesdropping from behind, became even more envious.
Bone Thorn deliberately teased: "Isn't this the secret base? Dragon King, you actually told Miss Huo?"
Lin Nan rolled his eyes. Nonsense. This villa was bought by Miss Huo!"
"Oh, I see!"
Everyone in the living room said in unison.
Huo Qiling covered her mouth and laughed. Then she said, "There seems to be more people than before."
Apart from Qin Feng, Swallow, and the other two, she had never seen anyone else.
"The team should be strong now."
Lin Nan walked into the living room with a smile.
Swallow was still very grateful to Huo Qiling. After all, huo Qiling had helped them during the most difficult time.
"Miss Huo, we only have this kind of coffee here. I don't know if you are used to it."
Swallow made a cup of coffee and served it.
"Thank you."
Huo Qiling took a sip and nodded. "That's right. I like German black coffee."
"That's good." Swallow smiled in satisfaction.
"It is indeed Eldest Lady. She has seen a lot of things." Gu Feng nodded and praised.
Lin Nan turned to Swallow and said, "Prepare some dishes. Miss Huo will eat here tonight."
"Okay!"
Swallow was very happy. She turned around and ran to the kitchen. She also dragged Woody and Crazyhead to be her assistants.
In the living room, everyone sat very casually.
Lin Nan said, "I didn't come for no reason. Miss Huo didn't come because she missed me, did she?"
"You are glib."
Huo Qiling complained and said seriously, "Lin Nan, I came to invite you to a cocktail party."
"Can't we just talk about this over the phone? Must we make a trip?"
Lin Nan took a sip of tea and said: "But since it is Miss Huo's invitation, I must go!"
Huo Qiling smiled. "It's not as simple as you think. The banquet this time is of great importance."
"What do you mean?" Lin Nan asked.
"It's like this. The annual meeting of the four families will be held two days later.
After the meeting, the four families will be the host and invite guests to attend the banquet.
The status of the guests shows the status of the family. Although it's just the vanity of the various families, the Huo Family doesn't want to lose. "
With just one sentence, she explained her purpose and thoughts clearly.
"If that's the case, I'm really flattered that you came to invite me!" Lin Nan said with a smile.
"Of course..."
Huo Qiling said seriously: "Master Lin's name has shaken the whole of Huaxia. He has broken through to the grandmaster realm and defeated the King of Assassins of the Northern Grandmaster. This kind of person is the symbol of our Huo family's absolute status."
"You even know this?" Lin Nan said in surprise.
The four great families could even find out about this?
"Of course."
Huo Qiling continued, "I don't know what a grandmaster means, but Mr. Xing was shocked when he found out. And my father asked me to invite you here no matter what, so he came here personally. "
Lin Nan finally understood!
This time, huo Qiling was actually entrusted by Huo Wenqing to support the Huo family.
If it was before, he would probably refuse.
But this time, he wouldn't.
Because, the Qi Family would definitely go as well.
The bone spur finally couldn't help but say: "Miss Huo, this banquet... can we go too?"
"Of course." Huo Qiling nodded affirmatively.
However, Lin Nan waved his hand and said, "Don't join in on the fun."
"Dragon King, you're not being honest. Do you want to monopolize the good things?" The bone spur pouted and complained.
"If it could be an ordinary cocktail party, then forget it. However, in such an occasion, it's better not to add to the chaos." Lin Nan said meaningfully.
Qin Feng was a sensible person. He immediately understood the meaning of Lin Nan's words.
He immediately said, "Let's not join in the fun. That kind of occasion is a competition of power and status, and drinking is uncomfortable."
"Forget it then. I can't even drink to my heart's content. I'd better not go." Bone Spikes scratched his head and said.
"Hahahaha!"
A burst of laughter.
Huo Qiling didn't say anything. She just laughed. "He'll definitely be very happy to go back and tell father this good news."
As they chatted, unknowingly, the sky darkened.
At this moment, a fragrant smell drifted over from the kitchen.
Woody and Crazyhead came in with piping hot dishes and said loudly, "It's time to eat."
"Miss Huo, it's a common dish. Please don't mind it." Lin Nan said politely.
"How can that be? In comparison, I prefer this kind of people to eat more."
Huo Qiling didn't give in either. She sat at the dining table and started eating with this group of people.
Halfway through the meal, Lin Nan put down his chopsticks and asked seemingly unintentionally: "Oh, right. Miss Huo, can I ask you a question?"
"What question? Feel free to ask." Huo Qiling replied.
"Among the four great clans, I have some understanding of the Huo, chen, and Chu Clans. Only, I'm not very familiar with the Qi Family."
Lin Nan smiled and said, "Can you introduce them to me?"
