Chapter 100 Chen Fan’s Connections

Chapter 100: Chapter 100 Chen Fan’s Connections

Before they could react, another servant came running and shouted, "Jiangbei’s number one antique dealer, Xu Shanchuan, has arrived to wish the young miss a happy birthday!"

Both father and son’s expressions changed.

"What! Xu Shanchuan is here too!"

Everyone from the Su Family already seated in the courtyard was also full of surprise, even Old Mr. Su was slightly moved.

"Though Xu Shanchuan is from Qingyang Town, his fame has already spread throughout Jiangbei Province. He usually doesn’t associate with people from the provincial city, so why would he come to Qingyan’s birthday banquet?" someone wondered aloud.

Su Zhenyun looked toward Su Hao, "Have you had any contact with those three recently?"

Su Hao shook his head, "No, I’ve been immersed in rigorous cultivation recently and have barely had any contact with the outside world."

Su Zhenyun’s face was a picture of bewilderment, "Then why would these three suddenly come to Qingyan’s birthday banquet? Could it be because of Old Mr. Su?"

Meanwhile, Su Qingyan could not help but burst out laughing.

She looked proudly at Chen Fan and said to Su Zhenyun and Su Hao, "They have come for Chen Fan."

Su Zhenyun frowned, "Qingyan, don’t talk nonsense. With the status and position these three have in the provincial city, even our Su Family has to show them respect. How could they possibly come for Chen Fan?"

Su Hao also said coldly, "Qingyan, there’s no need to elevate him with such words. Doing so will only make him appear more like a joke."

Su Zhenyun said, "Enough with the nonsense for now, let’s prepare to welcome the guests."

Su Hao nodded and stopped paying attention to Su Qingyan and Chen Fan.

Soon, Lu Jinyuan, Yang Wanli, and Xu Shanchuan arrived in the courtyard.

Su Zhenyun hurriedly went to greet them, "Boss Lu, Doctor Yang, Mr. Xu, having the three of you attend my daughter’s birthday banquet really glorifies our Su Family."

All three of them returned the gesture and exchanged pleasantries.

Su Zhenyun was still puzzled and looked at Lu Jinyuan and Yang Wanli, "Boss Lu, Doctor Yang, when I sent out the invitations, both of you said you were busy. I thought you weren’t coming."

Lu Jinyuan smiled, "I indeed had urgent matters, but when I thought about how this is Mr. Chen’s girlfriend’s birthday, I had to make time to come no matter how busy I was."

Yang Wanli nodded, "That’s right, I have to give Chen Fan this face."

Su Zhenyun and Su Hao were both shocked.

"They... really came for Chen Fan?" Su Hao’s face was a mix of disbelief.

Su Zhenyun looked at Xu Shanchuan, "Mr. Xu, you too..."

Xu Shanchuan laughed heartily, "Chen Fan is one of the people I respect the most, so I took the liberty of coming. I hope Su understands."

The shock in Su Zhenyun’s heart was indescribable.

People whom his Su Family had failed to invite had come because of Chen Fan!

Chen Fan walked over to the three.

They immediately greeted Chen Fan.

"Mr. Chen!"

"Chen Fan."

"Master Chen!"

Chen Fan nodded slightly, "Go ahead and take a seat inside."

All three bowed and made their way further in to find a table to sit down.

Su Hao was utterly petrified.

These three, whom the Su Family treated with utmost politeness, had only received a simple nod from Chen Fan when they greeted him.

What he found most unexpected was that none of the three showed any reaction at all, as if it were the most natural thing in the world!

Su Zhenyun and the rest of the Su Family were all agape and dumbstruck.

For a moment, everyone’s gazes towards Chen Fan became somewhat complicated.

Su Qingyan looked at her father and brother with satisfaction, "Do you believe it now?"

Having said that, she pulled Chen Fan to sit down with her.

She thought that all the guests for the day had already arrived.

Su Zhenyun and Su Hao sat down as well, taking a long time to calm down.

Su Hao gritted his teeth, "These three, although quite significant, are after all only prominent figures in Jiangcheng, not really counting for much. The truly powerful connections should come from the Provincial City or even the Capital. Those I would easily obtain after joining Dragon Soul."

As soon as he finished speaking, a servant ran in and announced, "Master Wu from the Provincial City has come to congratulate the young mistress on her birthday!"

Su Hao’s expression stiffened, "There are... more?"

"Master Wu is indeed quite a figure in the Provincial City, but making connections with such masters can be done with money, it’s nothing special." Su Hao reassured himself in silence.

The servant continued to shout, "President Qi Rulong of the Provincial City Cultivators Association is here to congratulate the young mistress on her birthday!"

"What! The president of the Cultivators Association! That’s like an immortal!" the crowd exclaimed.

Even Old Mr. Su couldn’t restrain himself and hurriedly got up to welcome the guest.

Qi Rulong was indeed the patron deified figure - Elder Qi of the Chu Family.

After ascending to Celestial Master, he became the president of the Provincial City Cultivators Association.

Su Hao swallowed his saliva, cold sweat dripping from his forehead, "That should be it, right?"

No sooner had he spoken than the servant immediately announced, "The Ding family from the Provincial City is here to congratulate the young mistress on her birthday!"

"The Chu Family from the Provincial City is here to congratulate the young mistress on her birthday!"

Su Hao felt his chest heaving; he tried hard to regain his composure, "Even if so many prominent figures from the Provincial City have come, it’s not necessarily because of Chen Fan."

Wu Tiangang, Qi Rulong, Ding Ling, and Chu Yunkuo walked in together.

They greeted Old Mr. Su.

Afterward, they walked up to Chen Fan and bowed respectfully.

And said in unison, "Master Chen!"

Chen Fan nodded at them, "Find places to sit."

He then clasped his hands towards Old Mr. Su, "Grandfather, I invited them here, firstly to bring cheer to Qingyan’s birthday, and secondly, to expand the Su Family’s connections. I hope Grandfather doesn’t mind that I took the liberty!"

At this point, Old Mr. Su was trembling with excitement, "How could I mind? Having such distinguished guests, I couldn’t be happier! My Su Family, what a great honor this is!"

Su Hao was visibly struggling to breathe.

He couldn’t understand how this person, whom he dismissed as worthless the first time he saw him, could have such a powerful influence.

At this moment, Su Zhenyun’s expression complex as he stared at Chen Fan; he had been utterly conquered by the network that Chen Fan had showcased.

"It seems I was shortsighted. Qingyan’s vision far surpasses my own!" Su Zhenyun lamented.

Jian Wanrong, standing to the side, was shocked, but she was unwilling to admit Chen Fan’s prowess so easily, "What’s the use in knowing so many people? Without personal skills, it’s all idle talk!"

Old Mr. Su had calmed down from his excitement and looked at Wu Tiangang and the others, "Gentlemen, I am extremely honored that you could come to my granddaughter’s birthday feast, but I want to ask, you just addressed Chen Fan as Master Chen, what does this mean?"

Wu Tiangang explained with a smile, "The so-called Celestial Master is an honorific we cultivators use for those who have entered the Dao and possess profound mastery. Those who reach this realm can command the winds and summon thunder; sitting right here, Mr. Qi Rulong, the president of the Cultivators Association, is also a Celestial Master!"

Qi Rulong immediately stood up to correct him, "Gentlemen, my Celestial Master status pales in comparison to Master Chen. Please do not compare me to him; I am not worthy."

Jian Wanrong was as if struck by lightning, rendered speechless.
