In Beijiang, if you ask where the best restaurant is, you might get a mix of responses.
But if you mention a place that offers dining, drinking, and entertainment all in one, with complete facilities and a high level, that must be the Dragon Emperor Platform, and even people from the province frequently spend their money here.
At this moment, luxury cars gathered in droves in front of the Dragon Emperor Platform, and guests clouded the entrance.
A Maybach slowly drove up to the front.
This extended custom edition Maybach was full of luxury, attracting many onlookers’ gazes.
The doorman hurriedly came forward, respectfully opening the car door.
The first to hop out of the car were two delicate and cute little girls.
The little girls, around four or five years old, looked identical, as if they had stepped right out of a comic book.
They were soft and charming.
Many girls looked on with gleaming eyes, almost wishing they could rush up and snatch one away right now.
Then, a woman with an elegant and pure aura like that of an orchid in a secluded valley emerged from the car, wearing a simple dress, her facial features picturesque.
This scene left many onlookers somewhat dumbfounded.
Meanwhile, a few girls not far away covered their mouths in surprise.
“Isn’t that our classmate, Tang Xuan’er?”
“Yes! It’s her! Doesn’t she say she’s unmarried? How come she has children now?”
“Hmph, always acting so high and mighty, but in the end, she’s just become a mistress for some rich guy,” a girl with a few freckles on her face sneered.
“Being able to afford such a car, there aren’t many in Beijiang! Who could this person be?”
Many people harbored this thought, and at this moment, Xue An also got out of the car.
His appearance caused another flurry of excitement among these girls.
“It’s Xue An!”
“Didn’t he disappear? How come he’s suddenly back?”
“He dares to show up? Hong has been threatening to deal with him for a long time!”
“Look at those shabby clothes; he doesn’t look wealthy at all, probably just swelling his face to look fat and renting the car!” the girl with freckles laughed.
This girl was Song Jing, who was known for being sharp-tongued and extremely snobbish. Along with Zhang Yan and Du Juan, she was known as one of the three despised individuals of the class.
“Hehe, Hong went to pick up the big star Fan Mengxue. There will probably be a good show to watch soon!” whispered the girls, gleefully anticipating the drama.
“Daddy, this place is so big and beautiful!” Xue Xiang looked around and exclaimed.
“Big? It’s decent! Wait until Daddy takes you to see what real luxury is!”
Xue An didn’t feel much.
Even though the Dragon Emperor Platform was known for spending five hundred million just on decorations, including a three-meter-long golden dragon made of real gold in the main hall.
It was also named for this reason.
Such extravagance could certainly make most people take notice.
But for someone like the Immortal Venerable, who had seen countless grand scenes, this place was truly… shabby.
In the past in the True Immortal Realm, a regular banquet would involve slaughtering thousands of giant dragons.
When the True Immortal Realm Master hosted Xue An, he even killed ten Ancient Gods dragons and used Phoenix Bone dishes to serve them.
Such a spectacle was beyond the imagination of mortals.
So, to Xue An, this so-called golden dragon carved out here was no different from a pig.
His words, however, attracted sidelong glances from those nearby.
A man with his hair dyed in wild colors, with an arm wrapped around a garishly dressed woman, couldn’t help but snicker upon hearing Xue An’s comment.
“Where did this bumpkin come from? He’s got quite a mouth on him!”
Before Xue An could respond, Xue Nian suddenly giggled.
“What are you laughing at?” Xue Xiang asked, hands on her hips, striking a sisterly pose.
“That uncle’s hair looks like a chicken nest!”
Upon hearing this, Xue Xiang took a closer look and couldn’t help but start laughing too.
“It really does!”
The two little girls’ remarks made many other people cover their mouths and laugh.
Because… it really does look a bit like a chicken coop.
This man’s face turned red with rage as he shot Xue An a hateful glance before turning away and leaving.
Xue An smiled faintly, he couldn’t care less about such an ant-like fellow. However, if that man had dared to provoke him again just now, Xue An wouldn’t have minded turning his head into an actual chicken coop.
“Xuan’Er, over here! Over here!” Song Jing shouted, her face now brimming with smiles, showing no trace of the sharpness she had just exhibited.
Tang Xuan’er hesitated for a moment, then walked over, “Song Jing, long time no see!”
“Tsk tsk, it really has been a long time indeed. I didn’t expect you to have children already! The two little girls are so cute! Are they twins?” Song Jing said with a smile.
Tang Xuan’er shook her head, “They are not my children! These two are Xue An’s daughters.”
Xue An has children?
Song Jing and the others looked over at Xue An from a distance, their eyes filled with scorn.
Dressed so shabbily and even bringing children to the gathering.
He must not be doing well!
“Let’s go! Let’s head over to the Heaven Number One room and wait! Hong Shao is picking up the male classmates along with the big star Fan Mengxue, they should be back soon!” Song Jing took Tang Xuan’er with her as they walked away.
“What about Xue An?”
“Him? If he wants to come, he can just follow, but right now the private room is full of girls.”
At that moment, Xue Xiang secretly tugged on Xue An’s clothes.
“What’s wrong?” Xue An bent down and asked.
“Daddy, I want to go to the bathroom!” Xue Xiang said with her little face blushing red.
“Me too, me too!” Xue Nian also spoke up.
“Uh… okay then!”
Xue An then went with them to the private room.
Heaven Number One is the most luxurious and expensive private room in Dragon Emperor Platform, naturally equipped with a bathroom.
However, as soon as he entered, he found the room filled with chattering women, all of them girls.
Most of them he no longer recognized, and those he did remember, he couldn’t recall their names.
“Isn’t this our class’s Xue An?”
“That’s him! Why didn’t he go to pick up Fan Mengxue?”
“Shh, don’t ask now. Hong Shao will be back soon!”
Amid these whispers, Xue An’s expression remained unchanged, as he simply told Xue Xiang and Xue Nian, “Can you go by yourselves?”
“Mhm mhm!”
The two little girls entered the bathroom.
Xue An stood by the door waiting.
Several times, Tang Xuan’er tried to come over, only to be held back by Song Jing with various excuses.
At this point, all the women in the room had their eyes fixed on him.
But Xue An didn’t care in the least.
A joke.
These people didn’t even count as flashy mediocrity in Xue An’s eyes, how could he care about their gaze?
Especially since Xue An’s state of mind was as firm as a rock, he just stood there distantly, exuding a proud demeanor.
Although his clothes weren’t fitting, they couldn’t conceal the sharpness of Xue An’s presence, sharp as a knife’s edge.
Gradually.
The whispers among the girls died down.
In school, Xue An had been the most handsome guy, and many girls had secretly liked him.
Seeing Xue An now, although his attire was plain, his looks and stature transcended his former self, stirring a peculiar feeling in their hearts.
Xue An was of course aware of this, but he simply smiled it off.
Back when he was in Greenhill Immortal Realm, just by a single encounter, he had managed to whisk away the Nine Tails Holy Maiden, causing the entire clan of fox demons to come out in pursuit, all to seek revenge on him.
If the likes of the Nine Tails Holy Maiden, who stood out in the universe, was nothing of concern to him, much less these ordinary mortals.
