The sudden arrival of the uninvited guest made Jiang Yuan and his group turn their heads at the same time.

"Hurry up, my princess is already waiting." The maid said lightly.

Jiang Yuan raised his head lazily and said calmly, "Why are you in such a hurry? You said it yourself, Miss Su invited me. Since it's an invitation, shouldn't you be polite?"

"You!" The maid's face darkened.

I was giving you face by inviting you, but I didn't expect you to actually climb up the pole.

"Okay, then please hurry up, Mr. Jiang." The maid said angrily, gritting her teeth.

If I didn't still count on you to testify and identify me, how could you, a mere county magistrate from Jiangyuan, be worthy of me coming here in person?

"Well, this is quite decent." Jiang Yuan spoke slowly, stood up and greeted Wang Gang and Qin Tianzhu.

"Come on, you two come with me, and the rest of you stay here."

As soon as the three of them stood up, Duanmu Yuanchen quickly climbed up.

"Take me, take me!"

"What are you going to do? It's not a good thing." Jiang Yuan glanced at Duanmu Yuanchen.

If you come forward to testify, you will definitely be going against the Yang family. Are you rushing to do that?

Duanmu Yuanchen waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's okay, you guys chat about your things, I'll just take this as a walk to relax."

"Okay, let's go." Jiang Yuan waved and called Wang Gang and the other two.

The four of them followed the maid out of the East Factory and into the Tianxia Restaurant. It was not until Jiang Yuan was about to leave the imperial capital last time that he learned that all the restaurants with the name Tianxia were basically the property of the current Prime Minister Lu Fang.

Following the maid, the four of them came to a private room, opened the door, and saw Su Su chatting with a man in the room.

Just as Jiang Yuan reached the door, figures suddenly appeared behind him.

"Damn it!" Jiang Yuan stared in amazement at Duanmu Yuanchen who had pushed him aside and gone in first.

What is this kid trying to do? Why is he so irritable?

"Princess Su Su, and this one, I'm Wang Chen, do you still remember me?" Duanmu Yuanchen blinked desperately while speaking.

The man glanced at Su Su doubtfully, and when he saw the latter nod slightly, he immediately smiled and said, "Oh, it's Wang Chen. Come and sit down."

After saying that, the man looked at Jiang Yuan at the door, his tone obviously much colder.

"Come in, everyone."

Jiang Yuan didn't care at all and led the two of them to find a chair to sit down.

The man immediately frowned: "Master Jiang, are all your guards so blind?"

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense, and even Duanmu Yuanchen, who was always laughing, frowned.

Ever since he met his father, he finally understood why the journey had been so difficult. He was able to survive thanks to Jiang Yuan and his group and Chen Liu.

Wang Gang and Qin Tianzhu can be considered his saviors.

Just as Su Su was about to speak to smooth things over, Jiang Yuan, who had been sitting for half a day, spoke up.

"Oh?"

"What do you mean, sir?" Jiang Yuan looked at the man with interest.

The man looked at Jiang Yuan indifferently and said in an unhappy tone: "Master Jiang treats his servants very well. We can even eat at the same table."

"But even if Mr. Jiang is kindhearted, please consider whether this is your home and whether you can make the decision yourself!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded: "Well, this gentleman is right. May I ask your name?"

"Haha! I can't call myself a famous person. I'm Ningchuan."

"Then may I ask what rank you hold at present? What achievements have you made?"

Ning Chuan's expression visibly darkened. After being stared at by Jiang Yuan for a long time, he said a little aggrievedly, "I don't even have an official position or any honors, but that's not important to me."

"Clap clap clap!"

Jiang Yuan smiled faintly and clapped his hands: "Great, really great, Ning Chuan, what did you just say?"

"Oh, by the way, how can a servant eat at the table, right?"

"What's wrong?" Ning Chuan looked at Jiang Yuan with a serious face.

"That's totally inappropriate. These two are both talented young men from Taiping County, and they both have achievements to their name."

Jiang Yuan slammed the table and glared.

"And you, who don't even have any achievements, have the nerve to eat with us?"

"Eat it if you want. We've already agreed to it. But why are you still so eager to say you're a servant? It makes me feel embarrassed."

"You! What do you mean?" Ning Chuan looked at Jiang Yuan angrily.

Damn it! Even if I don't have any official title or fame, just because my last name is Ning, who in the entire imperial capital wouldn't give me some face?

"Mr. Ning, are you talking about these two?" Jiang Yuan said softly.

"Master Ning, you have to think carefully. How many ninth-rank officials are there in this world, and how many eighth-rank officials are there? If even they are servants, who else is not a servant in Master Ning's eyes?"

"Or in other words, except for you, Ning, everyone else in this world is a servant!"

The veins on Ning Chuan's forehead bulged. No matter how crazy he was, he didn't dare admit that he meant that.

Although the Ning family is in the limelight, it also has many enemies. Once someone catches him, he may never be able to pursue a career in politics in this life.

"Okay, both of you, stop discussing this matter. Let's get down to business first." Su Su spoke quickly, and at the same time said to the maid standing beside her:

"Go tell the waiter that the food can be served."

Seeing Su Su speak, Ning Chuan could only suppress his unhappiness and sit back in his chair.

Jiang Yuan looked at Su Su meaningfully. It seemed that Su Su and the Ning family were not very close partners.

If that was true, Su Su should have spoken up earlier instead of watching Ning Chuan suffer a small loss before stopping the two of them.

They are just guys who take advantage of each other because of common interests.

As the food was served one by one, the atmosphere at the table finally eased a little.

Jiang Yuan glanced sideways at the three guys around him who were fighting over food and drinks.

Wang Mu and Wang Gang are completely heartless. Qin Tianzhu is probably thinking about how to trick Ning Chuan.

Are you kidding? He is a bandit leader after all. It is unreasonable for him to suffer a loss and not fight back.

Ning Chuan looked at Wang Gang and Qin Tianzhu with disdain as they were stuffing meat into their mouths.

"Well, it's time to eat more. Once we return to your little place, it will probably be difficult to eat this kind of food again."

Qin Tianzhu's eyes rolled and he immediately put on a smile: "Yes, sir, you are right, but I want to ask, how much is today's meal?"

"It's my treat." Ning Chuan looked at Qin Tianzhu with disdain.

Just eat, how much you can eat in one meal.

"Young Master is really kind-hearted, a good man, a good man!" Qin Tianzhu smiled warmly.

Jiang Yuan patted Wang Gang on the shoulder and said, "Didn't you hear? Young Master Ning is treating us to dinner today. Why don't you thank him?"

Wang Gang blinked and nodded: "Well, thank you, Mr. Ning, but these dishes are too few, can you add more?"

"Add whatever you want." Ning Chuan waved his hand impatiently.

At the dinner table, Wang Gang and Qin Tianzhu looked at each other and thought, well, this meal would be a waste if they didn't eat it, but it would also be a waste if they did eat it, who wouldn't eat it for free!

It’s all done!
