“Happy birthday.”
In the banquet hall of the mountain villa, all the guests are congratulating the four-well Lihua in the center of the banquet hall, who is wearing a red evening dress. Today is the 24th birthday of the daughter of the four-well consortium. For the sake of identity and business cooperation, the president of the Four Wells Foundation naturally invited many people from the business, political, and literary circles to the banquet.
After all, as the sole heir of the consortium, the Four Well Consortium will definitely fall into the hands of Four Well Reika in the future, and this eldest lady is still single, at least in name.
So, which young talent can win the heart of the eldest young lady, inherit the Four Wells Consortium, and become the most arrogant son-in-law in the city…Cough, in short, this banquet called the birthday banquet is actually the secret of the major consortiums. Planning and preparing to push the young talents in his hands to a blind date in front of Yotsui Reika.
Of course, in any case, this is a “little girl’s birthday” in name, and Yotsui will naturally invite some of her own friends, not business partners, to the conference.
Among them, there is naturally the mysterious fortune-teller Guan Dounan who has helped her solve difficult problems (referring to looking for cats and dogs) and left a deep impression on her (referring to her simple appearance). When the invitation letter arrived, the date marked on it just happened to have not happened yet, otherwise Guan Dounan would have missed the date just like his driver’s license.
However, Yotsui Reika, who was honestly dealt with by Asai, can only remember that she had commissioned a handsome fortune-teller, but she can’t remember exactly what he looked like.
Even now, the fortune-teller is still wearing a black mask, with only two eyes and ears exposed, but just those eyes that exude a mysterious light, like hiding infinite mysteries, are enough to attract people including The eyes of many people including Yotsui Reika herself.
“Happy twenty-fourth birthday, Lihua.”
The president of the Sijing Foundation, a middle-aged man with Rendanhu, who fits people’s stereotype of “neon middle-aged entrepreneur” came over, gently held Reika Sijing’s shoulders, and said to her. Send birthday wishes to your father.
“Thank you, Dad.” Shijing Lihua was naturally polite and responded in a ladylike manner.
“For the little girl’s birthday, all the distinguished guests are willing to go all the way to this villa to celebrate her. I am very grateful. In the future, I hope you can support our Four Wells Foundation a lot, thank you.”
President Yotsui’s flawless remarks naturally attracted applause from the guests present. Guan Dounan, who was concentrating on the food on the plate in front of him, also clapped his hands in a very formulaic manner, and then continued to enjoy the food on the plate. roast chicken.
Although there is no worry about money now, such “upper” food is not something you can eat casually. The second method is mainly about ingredients. Guan Shanyue is used to being diligent and thrifty, and is completely unwilling to spend more to satisfy his appetite.
“It tastes really good.”
“So, before everyone talks, I would like to introduce a special guest today. He is the one who has recently gained fame. He is said to be able to satisfy everyone’s regrets in life. gentlemen!”
President Yotsui stretched out his hand and directed everyone’s attention to the corner of the hall. There was a man in a black dress with a dinner plate in his hand. Although the clothes and decorations on his body are not very precious, it gives a mysterious and unpredictable feeling, like a mass of pure black, unable to see through anything.
The most surprising thing is that he clearly wore a black mask, but he still carried the food from the plate into his mouth as if there was no obstacle. No one could see how he did it, but it did happen, this guy was able to eat through a mask.
Feeling the countless gazes directed at him, Guan Dounan shook his head helplessly. After eating the last piece of chicken on the fork in his hand, he gently put down the plate and tilted his upper body slightly towards the guests who seemed to be watching animals on display in a zoo. , bowed about 10°.
The “mask” illusion created by Xiao Hei’s ability allows him to eat and drink normally without revealing his face. Of course, even if the mask is “removed”, the face behind is not his original face, so there is basically no need to worry about revealing his identity.
“However, who came up with the nickname ‘Xun’, and where did President Yotsui hear it…” Guan Dounan murmured in his heart, and it took another month or so since he received the invitation.” It was Reika Yotsui’s birthday, and during this time, urban legends didn’t know what he was portrayed as.
“Is he the famous fortune teller? It’s really unbelievable…”
“I thought he’d be wearing a pointed hat and mage robes…”
“I heard that as long as it is lost, he can find it…”
“Can I entrust him to inquire about the trade secrets of competitors…”
Listening to the whispered discussions of the surrounding guests, UU read www. uukanshu.com Guan Dounan was expressionless, anyway, he just came to eat today, divination? Sorry to be closed today.
“This fortune-teller once helped my daughter a lot, but unfortunately I didn’t have the opportunity to thank him in person, so I invited him to the scene today. So today, the fortune-teller is only here as a guest. If you want to fortune-telling, you can also Please contact him privately.” President Yotsui was very satisfied with the reaction of the guests, and he continued to speak at this time, which was to dispel the idea of those people wanting Guan Dounan to perform on the spot, but it was in line with him.
However, as soon as these remarks came out, it attracted a lot of people who were close to each other. Neon people themselves were not disgusted with these divinations, fortune-telling, etc., so many people had already taken out their business cards and gathered around Guan Dounan.
“Aiya, I’ve heard of your name for a long time. It is said that you helped to find a billion-dollar gold nugget, and you were not greedy at all, and reported it directly to the country? It’s really amazing.”
“I heard that you have directly found the ancient castle that was hidden by God, and let the treasures inside be seen again? Can you explain the process in detail?”
“I heard that you can even get back the ‘face’ you lost. How did you do it?”
“…”
“Oh? A fortune teller? Could it be another guy who pretends to be a ghost and cheats money through the Barnum effect?”
A discordant voice interrupted the discussion. The speaker was a young man with wheat-colored skin and black hair tied back into a ponytail. He walked to the front of the crowd and looked at Guan Dounan with suspicion and disdain.
“Hey, Mitsuhashi, after all, this is also President Yotsui’s guest…” A small staff member wearing glasses pulled the man called Mihashi and looked carefully at Yotsui. The president’s face.
