As the conversation progressed, an invisible storm seemed to be brewing.

Liu Wenzhou's concerns are not unreasonable.

The Su family's overall strength was originally ranked first among the eight hidden families, and now it has a strong ally like Lin Zhong. If it is not checked and balanced, the other seven aristocratic families may have trouble sleeping and eating in the future.

Everyone in the banquet hall was silent for a moment.

They didn't expect that Liu Wenzhou would be so bold and speak his true thoughts in front of everyone. He didn't seem to worry about the Su family's misunderstanding at all.

"Mr. Liu is worrying too much."

Su Miao stepped forward, stood side by side with Lin Zhong, and said categorically: "The Su family has formed an alliance with His Excellency Lin Zhong, not against anyone, just to protect themselves."

"Yeah?"

The smile on Liu Wenzhou's lips did not diminish, his eyes moved back and forth between Lin Zhong and Su Miao, and he said leisurely: "I believe what Miss Su said, but I'm afraid that other people in the Su family don't think so."

"Peace among the eight great families is hard-won, and I have no intention of changing the status quo."

Su Miao's expression was calm, and her bright eyes looked around, scanning the faces of Liu Wenzhou, Jiang Beiwang, Tang Luoyang, Wu Hong and others: "You are all my elders. I hereby assure you that no matter how the situation develops in the future, the Su family will never

Don’t take the initiative to stir up disputes.”

The smile on Liu Wenzhou's face slowly faded, he narrowed his eyes and stared straight at Su Miao, with a sharp and intelligent light shining faintly between his eyes.

A pressure as heavy as a mountain emanated from Liu Wenzhou's body. It was an aura that could only be possessed by a powerful person who wields great power and can call the wind and rain.

Facing Liu Wenzhou's penetrating gaze, Su Miao's expression remained unchanged.

"Okay, I'll remember your promise."

After about seven or eight seconds, Liu Wenzhou spoke in a deep voice, and every word was sonorous and powerful: "As long as the Su family does not break its promise, the Liu family will continue to remain neutral!"

After speaking, Liu Wenzhou nodded to Lin Zhong, then turned around and strode away.

Tang Luoyang and Wu Hong looked at each other, neither of them intending to express an opinion. They nodded to Lin Zhong and Su Miao, and then left behind Liu Wenzhou.

Of the four masters, Jiang Beiwang was the only one left in a blink of an eye.

Jiang Beiwang looked at Lin Zhong and said calmly: "Mr. Lin, I wonder if you would like to go out with me for a walk?"

Lin Chong's eyes were dark. Although he didn't know what Jiang Beiwang was going to do, he was an expert and bold man. After thinking for a while, he nodded and agreed: "Okay."

"please."

Jiang Beiwang stretched out his hand and made an inviting gesture.

Lin Zhong tilted his head and said to Su Miao, "I'll be back as soon as I go."

Su Miao blinked her eyes and made a nasal sound of unknown meaning: "Yeah."

Lin Zhong and Jiang Beiwang walked out of the banquet hall. At this moment, the entire Yujingtai Hotel was empty, with only some waiters cooperating with the bodyguards to deal with the aftermath.

Yujingtai Hotel is the property of the Su family. Every waiter is carefully selected, has a clean background, and has a reliable origin, so there is no need to worry about the news being leaked.

The two of them walked slowly along the corridor. Jiang Beiwang put his hands behind his back and suddenly sighed: "Mr. Lin, what did Xiaolan tell you about me?"

Lin Zhong said expressionlessly: "You should ask her personally."

As a comrade who was committed to each other's life and death with Jiang Lan, Lin Zhong had no good impression of Jiang Beiwang.

Because Lin Zhong remembered that the reason why Jiang Lan joined Beidou was because he was forced into marriage by the Jiang family. As the head of the Jiang family, Jiang Beiwang played a disgraceful role in that incident.

"I haven't seen Xiaolan for several years."

Jiang Beiwang heard the coldness and alienation in Lin Zhong's tone, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Mr. Lin, every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. Although I am the head of the family, I can't do whatever I want. Whether you believe it or not, what happened back then?

It was the only mistake I ever made in my life, and I still regret it from time to time."

Lin Zhong suddenly stopped.

He tilted his head slightly and glanced at Jiang Beiwang out of the corner of his eye. His voice became colder and colder: "Mr. Jiang, I am not the person you talk to. You shouldn't say these things to me."

"I just want you to tell Xiao Lan that her father already knows that he was wrong."

Jiang Beiwang closed his eyes, with a look of pain on his face, and said in a hoarse voice: "As long as I can get her forgiveness, I can do anything, including resigning as the head of the family."

The coldness in Lin Zhong's eyes gradually dissipated.

Although he was an orphan, abandoned by his parents since he was young, and grew up in an orphanage. It was difficult for him to understand the emotions between his family members, but the pain on Jiang Beiwang's face was real, and he was deeply touched.

"Mr. Jiang, please don't worry, I will tell Jiang Lan word for word." Lin Zhong slowed down his tone slightly and said in a deep voice.

"Thanks."

Jiang Beiwang was relieved and said gratefully: "Mr. Lin, I know this request is embarrassing, but apart from you, I can't find anyone else to help."

"It's just a little effort."

Lin Zhong waved his hand. Out of respect for his friends, he did not want to talk too much about the conflict between Jiang Lan and his family, so he decided to end the topic: "Mr. Jiang, is there anything else?"

Jiang Beiwang hesitated for a moment, and an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes. He looked left and right to make sure there was no one around, and then whispered: "Mr. Lin, I have a few words of advice. I hope you don't blame me for talking about Qian Yan Shen."

"Speaking."

"It is not a wise move for you to offend Zhenwu Sect and Wuji Sect."

Jiang Beiwang's voice was low: "Zhenwu Sect is the first of the top ten hidden sects. There are many strong men and masters, and the background is unfathomable. There are at least four great masters in charge of the surface, and the Wuji Sect also has three great masters. Lin

Sir, although you are young and promising and have a bright future, you should keep a low profile during this changing situation, otherwise you may suffer unexpected disasters."

Lin Zhong's thick black eyebrows slowly wrinkled.

How could he be so smart that he couldn't understand what Jiang Beiwang was saying?

Jiang Beiwang was obviously hinting to him that Zhenwu Sect and Wuji Sect were brewing some kind of conspiracy. As the local gangsters in the capital, the Jiang family must have received some rumors.

If it were anyone else, being targeted by two hidden sects, they would probably have trouble sleeping and eating.

But Lin Zhong was fearless.

Because all of this was within his expectations, it could even be said that he did it on purpose.

"Thank you Mr. Jiang for the reminder."

Lin Zhong put away his casual attitude, folded his hands into fists, and bowed deeply.

His gift was not to thank Jiang Beiwang for the tip, but to thank Jiang Beiwang for his kindness, even if that ray of kindness was insignificant.

As the saying goes, the strong wind knows the strong grass, and the true love is revealed in times of crisis. The more dangerous the time, the more precious goodwill is.

There is no doubt that in Jiang Beiwang's eyes, Lin Zhong is in a very dangerous period. He does not know Lin Zhong's plan and thinks that Lin Zhong is still kept in the dark by Zhenwu Sect and Wuji Sect.
