Ye Fei felt deeply grateful.
If Ye Fei hadn't saved him before, his wife would likely have died.
Recalling those events, Zhang Daqiang felt a surge of emotion.
"They're here!"
Just then, Qin Bing wanted to ask something after hearing Zhang Daqiang, but Zhang Daqiang spoke again.
"Young Master Gao Lei of the Gao family has arrived!"
With a shout, Gao Lei, the young master of the Gao family, appeared!
Wow!
As the crowd heard the announcement and saw the arrival of the Gao family's young master, Gao Lei, they erupted in renewed commotion.
The Gao family!
Had the Gao family sent someone too?
While the Zhang family alone might not compare to many family powers, the Gao family was not weak either!
If Ye Fei's side could draw seven or eight more families like the Gao family and the Zhang family!
Then, perhaps, it was truly uncertain which of the thirteen branches would be the strongest today!
The great-grandmother's brow furrowed slightly upon seeing this.
The arrival of both the Gao and Zhang families, and their immediate siding with Ye Fei's group, was something she hadn't expected.
However, she soon recalled what Qin Ling had said after returning from Longhai, and her mind found some clarity.
According to Qin Ling, Ye Fei had owed favors to the Zhang and Gao families when he was in Longhai.
Therefore, it made sense for these two families to come and lend their support at this time.
"Is the real show about to begin?"
Qin Ling murmured to herself, observing the scene.
"Mom, what are you talking about?"
Beside her, Qin Ling's daughter, Xu Lili, turned her head upon hearing her mother's words, asking in confusion.
"It's nothing, we just need to watch."
Qin Ling glanced at her daughter, remembering the incident where her daughter had been hit by Ye Fei.
Although her daughter had been struck by Ye Fei, she harbored no resentment whatsoever!
On the contrary, that slap had truly awakened Qin Ling, making her realize that one couldn't be so arrogant in this world; one had to be low-key!
After all, in this world, there were always people better than you, and heavens beyond heavens!
There were too many powerful individuals.
Furthermore, while Jiangdong was good, it was merely a small place when considered in the context of all of China.
"Sister Hong of the Nine Dragons Chamber of Commerce has arrived!"
Just then, before the discussions among the crowd had even subsided, another announcement was made.
Swish swish! Swish swish!
The mere mention of the Nine Dragons Chamber of Commerce caused everyone present to stand up.
Their eyes widened as they turned towards the entrance.
Instantly, they saw Sister Hong of the Nine Dragons Chamber of Commerce arrive!
"Brother Ye Fei, you really are something. Why didn't you call me for such an exciting event?"
As soon as Sister Hong arrived, while everyone was still pondering, her gaze fell directly upon Ye Fei, and she spoke.
As she spoke, she cast a charming, reproachful glance at Ye Fei before gracefully walking over and taking a seat.
"Uh..."
Ye Fei looked at Sister Hong, his expression somewhat awkward. He wanted to say something, but the words caught in his throat.
Sister Hong had arrived too?
Not far away, the great-grandmother's expression slightly changed upon seeing this!
Sister Hong was a different matter entirely!
Although Sister Hong was merely a maid to Bai Ruge, she was still associated with the Nine Dragons Chamber of Commerce!
Her sudden arrival and taking a seat at Ye Fei's table clearly indicated Bai Ruge's stance to anyone with eyes to see.
At this moment, the great-grandmother's brows were tightly furrowed as she began to ponder.
However, after much thought, the great-grandmother couldn't come to any definitive conclusion.
Swish swish! Swish swish!
Subsequently, the great-grandmother's gaze fell upon Ye Fei's group nearby, and then shifted to the other twelve branches.
Fortunately, Bai Ruge herself hadn't appeared; otherwise, the situation today might have spiraled out of control.
As it stood, the other twelve branches still held a certain advantage.
"Patriarch Gao Guoqiang of the Gao family, and the Gao family's esteemed daughter Gao Yuanyuan have arrived!"
Just then, another announcement reached everyone's ears.
First, the young master of the Gao family arrived, and now the patriarch and his daughter?
This... the expressions of everyone present changed once again.
"Bai... President Bai Ruge... has arrived..."
At this very moment, even the announcer was surprised!
Because the patriarch of the Gao family had just arrived when Bai Ruge appeared.
No, not just arrived, but arrived together!
Wow!
At this instant, the crowd became even more astounded!
"What?"
The Qin family's great-grandmother exclaimed, rising to her feet.
"Brother Ye Fei, my sister has arrived, and you're not coming to greet her? Honestly!"
This was not what shocked everyone the most.
The most astounding thing to the crowd was that after Bai Ruge entered, her gaze landed on Ye Fei, and she spoke with a hint of playful grievance.
"What? Brother? Ye Fei... is... is President Bai's brother?"
"Damn! What's going on?"
The crowd, who had been fine until this point, widened their eyes in disbelief upon seeing this.
Especially the great-grandmother, her eyes snapped open wide!
At this moment, her thoughts raced, and she suddenly grasped a realization!
It was no wonder Ye Fei had been so confident earlier; he had clearly anticipated Bai Ruge's arrival!
But these were not the main points. The critical question was, when did Ye Fei become Bai Ruge's brother?
At this moment, the great-grandmother felt as if her heart condition was about to flare up!
"Uh... Sister Ruge, come, come, sit over here."
Ye Fei looked at Bai Ruge approaching from a distance and immediately gestured with a smile.
Hearing this, Bai Ruge cast Ye Fei a glance before walking over and taking a seat beside him.
At this point, everyone noticed something: the empty seats on either side of Ye Fei, only one was occupied by Bai Ruge's arrival.
The other seat beside Ye Fei remained vacant!
What... what was going on?
Could it be that some even greater figure was about to arrive?
At this moment, the crowd began to speculate again.
By now, they no longer cared which of the thirteen branches would win today.
Given the current situation, Ye Fei's branch seemed poised to win the bet with an overwhelming advantage, with no suspense.
What truly piqued their curiosity and interest now was what kind of people this branch, once expelled from the Qin family and living in Longhai for years, could gather at the great-grandmother's centenary banquet.
"Patriarch Tang Chen of the Jinling Tang family, and his eldest granddaughter Tang Ying have arrived!"
In a flash, the announcer at the door spoke again.
And this time, his voice trembled as he spoke.
Jinling!
Everyone in the entire courtyard was rendered speechless by shock!
A group of people instantly widened their eyes, filled with a look of stunned disbelief.
"Grandpa and them are here."
Bai Ruge looked at Ye Fei and said!
Immediately, Bai Ruge stood up!
Ye Fei also rose to his feet. After all, they were from the Jinling Tang family.
Moreover, they had come because of him; he couldn't appear impolite!
Swish swish! Swish swish!
Seeing Ye Fei and Bai Ruge stand up, the Qin family members also stood up.
Instantly, a group of people went to greet them!
"Hahaha, Master, why have you come out personally to welcome an old man? You're too kind, too kind! Please, please!"
Upon seeing Ye Fei come to greet him, Tang Chen immediately trotted over and said politely.
This scene nearly made everyone's eyeballs pop out.
What... what was going on?
Was this a fake Tang family patriarch?
What was the Tang family's status?
They were a prominent family from Jinling, and their patriarch was showing such respect to Ye Fei upon arrival.
"Patriarch Tang, please come inside, please!"
At this moment, the great-grandmother's expression changed drastically.
She could no longer afford to be in a state of shock and astonishment; she hastily extended an invitation.
The Tang family!
It was the Tang family from Jinling!
Good heavens, was Ye Fei truly this capable?
At this moment, the Qin family's great-grandmother finally came to her senses, realizing that their Qin family had truly found a treasure!
"Master Ye Fei, please!"
Tang Chen completely ignored the birthday celebrant, the great-grandmother, and made a welcoming gesture towards Ye Fei.
"Old Master Tang, please!"
