Two national goddesses who had previously been like best friends were now arguing over two men, or rather, over one man.
Kim Soo-yeon always had confidence in Luo Chen, but Young Hora was different. She felt her choice was the correct one. Luo Chen was nothing more than a fraud, while Andrei was the one with true strength and status. Choosing Andrei was the most correct decision, and Young Hora firmly believed that Kim Soo-yeon would definitely regret it.
“I hope you don’t regret it!” Kim Soo-yeon said these final words before turning around and going inside.
“I’ll say the same to you!” Young Hora coldly spoke from behind.
Hmph, Kim Soo-yeon, just watch. Soon you will know what a stupid decision you have made. Young Hora looked at Kim Soo-yeon’s retreating figure and sneered again.
“Miss Hora, as sisters, you should actually try to persuade Miss Soo-yeon too!” Old Tong had been standing nearby watching the two of them argue.
“Alas, sometimes one must suffer some losses before realising one’s poor judgment.”
“Besides, you just heard her. She actually told me not to regret it?”
“Can that Luo Chen compare to Andrei?” Young Hora let out a cold laugh.
“Alas, I hope Miss Soo-yeon doesn’t regret it.” Old Tong also sighed.
“Let’s go, let’s go inside.” Old Tong greeted the person who had just asked him a question.
As soon as they entered the main hall, there was already a feeling of confrontation, or rather, a strong smell of gunpowder. Because there was only one seat for the main guest. Obviously, was this seat for Luo Chen, or for the little prince Andrei? But now, because Luo Chen had entered early, this seat was already occupied by him.
At this moment, Luo Chen was sitting squarely and steadily in the main guest’s seat, seemingly waiting for someone’s arrival. And Kim Soo-yeon had obediently run to Luo Chen’s side, chatting with him about something, occasionally letting out some laughter. But Andrei was not happy. He was the little prince of the werewolf clan. From childhood to adulthood, he had grown accustomed to being the most eye-catching and the centre of attention wherever he went. How could the main guest’s seat be occupied by someone else at this moment?
Young Hora had already entered by now, and even Fourth Master Rong and Third Sister Rong had come in. When these few people saw that it was Luo Chen sitting in the main guest’s seat, their faces immediately darkened. In fact, it wasn’t just these few people. Even Old Tong and the others were frowning at Luo Chen at this moment. How could you sit in that seat?
Old Tong looked at Andrei, then looked at Luo Chen, and finally walked directly towards Luo Chen. At this time, it was obviously the best moment to curry favour with Andrei.
“Get up. You shouldn’t be sitting here!” Old Tong stood with his hands behind his back, walked up to Luo Chen, and spoke with a cold smile.
“What did you say?” Luo Chen had originally been talking to Kim Soo-yeon. Upon hearing this, he suddenly turned his head, raised his eyelids, and looked at Old Tong.
“Hmph, didn’t hear clearly?”
“I said you shouldn’t”
“Slap!” A crisp and loud slap rang out.
After this slap rang out, the noisy hall fell completely silent in an instant.
Old Tong was completely stunned, looking at Luo Chen in shock. He had been hit. He had actually been hit?
“What did you just say?” Luo Chen spoke with an expressionless face.
“How dare you hit”
“Bam!”
This time it was no longer a slap. Instead, Luo Chen directly grabbed a bottle of red wine from the table and smashed it onto Old Tong’s head. Immediately, Old Tong’s entire head was red. It was impossible to tell whether it was red wine or blood. Old Tong clutched his head and collapsed directly onto the ground.
“Luo, you’ve gone too far!” Fourth Master Rong stepped forward at this moment and directly rebuked him.
You, a person who relies on the Rong family’s support, actually dare to be so arrogant at the Rong family’s banquet?
“I’ve gone too far?” The corner of Luo Chen’s mouth curled into a disdainful smile.
“Have I been too kind to you?” Luo Chen suddenly stood up.
“Hmph, you’d better understand. This is the Rong family!” Third Sister Rong also let out a cold laugh and stepped forward.
“Besides, Old Tong merely asked you to get up. What right do you have to hit him?”
“Oh, then I’m curious. What right did he have to make me get up?” Luo Chen retorted.
“Simply because you truly shouldn’t sit in that seat, and you don’t deserve to sit in that seat!” Young Hora also stepped forward to join in.
“I shouldn’t sit in this seat?” Luo Chen pointed at his own seat.
“You truly shouldn’t!”
“This is our Rong family’s banquet. Who should sit in that seat is up to our Rong family to decide.”
“Now, get up from that seat.” Fourth Master Rong stared at Luo Chen and spoke.
“I’m afraid you can’t represent the Rong family, can you?” This time it wasn’t Luo Chen who spoke, but Kim Soo-yeon at his side.
“Mr. Luo was invited by the head of the Rong family. Then at today’s banquet, Mr. Luo is the main guest!” Kim Soo-yeon spoke again.
“He’s the main guest?” Young Hora took over the conversation and coldly retorted.
“You’re wrong. The true main guest should be the little prince, Mr. Andrei!” Young Hora turned her gaze towards Andrei.
“Everyone, the head of the Rong family invited Mr. Luo. He didn’t mention Mr. Andrei.”
“Heh, what a joke. Would my uncle be that stupid?”
“My uncle simply didn’t know that Mr. Andrei had arrived at the Rong family. If my uncle knew, he would definitely let Mr. Andrei sit in the main seat!” Young Hora retorted loudly.
“Ask everyone present. Does what I say make sense?”
“Can that Luo Chen compare to Mr. Andrei?”
“Between Mr. Andrei and Luo Chen, not to mention the Rong family, anyone would know how to choose!” Young Hora spoke loudly.
Once these words were spoken, the entire hall immediately burst into discussion. Indeed, several hundred people were watching the scene. But if a choice had to be made, or rather, this simply wasn’t a choice at all.
“Let me say this. At today’s banquet, it’s either him or me. There can’t be both of us!” Andrei stepped forward and spoke arrogantly.
“Young man, compared to me, you really can’t compare!” Andrei gave Luo Chen a cold laugh.
“Then Mr. Luo, please leave now!” Fourth Master Rong let out a cold laugh. This was clearly intended to drive Luo Chen away, and this was in front of all the big shots of Goryeo. This was directly equivalent to humiliating Luo Chen.
“I’ll say it again. Today the head of the Rong family invited Mr. Luo. You still can’t represent the head of the Rong family.” Kim Soo-yeon was also somewhat angry and directly retorted.
“What about with me?” Third Sister Rong stepped forward and spoke.
“And me!” Young Hora also spoke.
“Luo Chen, for the sake of having known each other, leave now.” Young Hora lowered her voice to speak, but these words could still be heard clearly by everyone.
“You know your own strength, and you also know the little prince Andrei’s strength and status.”
“When my uncle arrives shortly, who he will choose, I think you know very well. If my uncle personally drives you away, it will be even more humiliating.”
This scene was somewhat awkward. This was equivalent to these members of the Rong family all driving Luo Chen away. And the people present, almost everyone believed that if Rong Zhaixu came, he would definitely choose Andrei. After all, it was said that the Rong family was facing a powerful enemy. At this time, choosing who to side with was simply a matter that required no thought. Added to that, Luo Chen’s first-level Otherworlder strength had already been exposed, and he had been taken away by small-time thugs. This already explained everything.
“Dad, do you think the head of the Rong family would really…” Even Kim Soo-yeon was somewhat uncertain.
But Kim Jae-jong was very sensible and had remained silent. However, Kim Jae-jong was very clear that if Rong Zhaixu truly made that choice, the Rong family would likely be completely finished today.
“Quiet.” Kim Jae-jong did not answer Kim Soo-yeon’s words.
“Still not leaving? Do you have to wait until he comes to drive you away, making you unable to get off the stage, before you give up?” Andrei looked at Luo Chen and sneered.
Just at this moment, a loud and clear voice sounded from outside the door.
“The master has arrived!”
