Global Demon Transformation.

Chapter 99 The Atmosphere Frozen
The villa was bustling with activity. Since the birthday banquet hadn't officially started yet, everyone was looking for their own circles to chat.

When an old man appeared, people quieted down slightly and turned their attention to him.

The old man was wearing an ordinary dark green military uniform with a red collar tab.

The old man had a square face, short, jet-black hair, and slightly dark skin. He had distinct features and was not very tall, but he was strong and robust, like a mountain or a tower, exuding masculinity.

He possessed the unique temperament of a soldier, serious and aloof.

"Dad, say a few words and the birthday banquet will begin, so I can arrange for the food to be served."

Lin Anbang came to the old man's side and said.

Meanwhile, his eyes continued to search the crowd, but to no avail.

"Hey kid, hurry up and serve the food, it's getting late."

Lin Yuanshan glared at his son and said with displeasure.

It's just a regular birthday, why make such a big deal out of it!

If it weren't for the fact that he hadn't seen his comrades and friends for many years, he would have given Lin Anbang a good scolding.

Lin Anbang felt helpless, but dared not show it.

In front of the old man, he could only obediently nod.

"Thank you all so much for coming to my birthday celebration. Please enjoy the food and drinks."

Seeing his son leave, Lin Yuanshan glanced at the bustling hall and spoke, his voice revealing a hint of boldness and domineering power.

"Chief Lin, it's my duty."

"Old man, I'm going to get you drunk today."

"Yes, we must avenge ourselves today. This time, we can't cheat with spiritual power." Many elderly men in military uniforms laughed and said.

"Then come on, you defeated wrestlers."

Lin Yuanshan laughed and scolded. Although he was dissatisfied with his son, he was obviously very happy to be reunited with his comrades and old friends after a long separation.

At this moment, waiters specially invited from the hotel began to serve the dishes, and with drinks flowing freely, the atmosphere became even more lively.

On the other side, a girl with a watermelon-shaped haircut was playing on her phone with a bored expression.

"Dong Yunan, the food is served. Can you please stop playing on your phone all the time?"

Dong Xiuxian looked at his daughter and gently scolded her.

Since the college entrance examination, his daughter has been staying at home like a homebody. Today, he brought his daughter to celebrate his birthday, also hoping that she could make more friends.

"It's so boring not to play on your phone."

Dong Yunan looked up, picked up her chopsticks, took a bite of food, and then continued playing on her phone.

This left Dong Xiuxian looking helpless.

A man standing nearby smiled at Dong Xiuxian and said, "It's normal for kids to like playing on their phones. My son is the same. Maybe we even have things in common."

As he spoke, the man gestured to a boy, who immediately asked Dong Yuna, "What game are you playing?"

"We didn't play any games, just chatted briefly."

Dong Yunan looked up and muttered to himself that he wasn't handsome, so he gave a perfunctory reply.

The boy clearly sensed Dong Yunan's perfunctory attitude and became somewhat resentful, not daring to speak.

"This kid!"

Seeing this, Dong Xiuxian found it somewhat amusing, but he did not intend to blame Dong Yunan.

Although Lao Huang's son was also admitted to Hongyun University, his talent was only considered excellent, and he was not quite qualified to pursue Lao Huang's daughter.

Since meeting a young man like Lin Feng, Dong Xiuxian's standards have risen considerably.

It's a pity that the guy doesn't seem to care much for his precious daughter; otherwise, being his son-in-law would be a good choice.

"President Dong, you are so lucky. My son also got into Hongyun, but he didn't get a scholarship. If possible, I would like to trouble your precious daughter to take care of him."

Old Huang held up his wine glass and spoke politely to Dong Xiuxian.

The value of therapists is self-evident, and with a therapist's care, safety is undoubtedly greatly guaranteed.

Furthermore, it's widely rumored that Dong Xiuxian's daughter has a close relationship with Lin Feng and Yun Kai, and that having her help would naturally bring many benefits.

"Old Huang, you're too kind. Well, that's right. Let them leave their contact information. We're all from the same hometown, so we should help each other out when we get to Hongyun." Dong Xiuxian also took a sip of wine and gestured to his daughter with his eyes.

Although Dong Yunan was somewhat reluctant, he dared not disobey his father and still took out his phone to add the boy's contact information.

"Happy birthday to you."

Just then, music started playing, and Dong Xiuxian shifted his gaze to see a group of people pushing a cake towards Old Lin.

Happy birthday, Dad.

Happy birthday, Grandpa.

Happy birthday, Grandpa.

Lin Anbang and his younger siblings stood in front of the old man and offered their congratulations.

"Grandpa, hurry up and blow on the cake! I'm so hungry."

A group of children stared at the cake with shining eyes. One six-year-old girl even tugged at Lin Yuanshan's hand and pleaded sweetly.

"Alright, alright, Grandpa will blow out the candles right away. You shouldn't do this kind of ceremony again."

As a soldier, the old man was clearly not used to the ritual of blowing out candles. With a gentle wave of his hand, all seven candles went out.

"Is this okay?"

Lin Anbang was speechless at this way of blowing out the candles.

"Yeah, time for cake."

The children clearly didn't care about blowing out the candles and started cutting the cake amidst cheers.

"Dad, happy birthday, may you stay young forever."

As the eldest son, Lin Anbang was the first to present his gift.

"Ah."

Lin Yuanshan casually accepted the gift without intending to open it; he was more looking forward to drinking with his comrades than receiving the present.

After Lin Anbang, Lin Xinyuan and others also stepped forward to offer their blessings and present gifts.

"Old Lin, this bottle of wine is a gift from me, a fine vintage that I've treasured for fifty years. Let's drink it today."

At the same time, Lin Yuanshan's comrades and friends, as well as Lin Anbang's friends or business partners, all presented gifts.

The gifts weren't anything valuable either, because based on past experience, if a gift was worth more than 10,000 yuan, it would be returned immediately, and the giver might even get a scolding.

One by one, everyone stood up and lined up to present their gifts. Dong Xiuxian didn't want to wait in line, and only left his seat when he saw that there was almost no one left.

Happy birthday, Mr. Lin.

Dong Xiuxian presented the gift and said with a smile.

"President Dong, thank you."

Facing Dong Xiuxian, whose strength and status were no less than his, Lin Yuanshan also stood up and spoke politely.

Although he was older, in the world of martial arts, the strong are respected. Since Dong Xiuxian was stronger than him, he naturally couldn't put on airs.

"You're welcome."

After a few polite words, Dong Xiuxian prepared to leave, but when he turned around and saw a woman behind him, he paused slightly.

"Huh?" Dong Xiuxian let out a soft exclamation.

He found the woman rather strange; not only was she keeping her head down, but her body was also trembling slightly, as if she were afraid of something.

When she arrived in front of Mr. Lin, she presented the gift but did not say a word of congratulations before turning to leave.

"wait!"

Lin Yuanshan didn't pay much attention to the woman when he first saw her.

Because the woman had her head down, he couldn't see her face clearly and assumed she was just an ordinary customer. However, the woman's trembling body made him a little strange, so he took a second look.

Upon seeing this, his expression changed.

His face, which had been slightly smiling, suddenly darkened, and the pleasant atmosphere seemed to freeze instantly.
