The God of Douluo bestows martial soul

As the Li family is a new and famous family in Deakin City, they have put a lot of effort into the decoration of the Li Mansion.

The entire front yard is very large in area and uniquely decorated. The ground is paved with exquisite marble, and the grass in an orderly manner is obviously carefully trimmed.

There are rockeries, green plants, ponds, pavilions, bridges, etc. in the yard.

Directly opposite the door, a "golden bull" more than five meters long raised its front hooves and glared ahead with its high head.

This was the silver-horned ox of the Li family's martial spirit. It was made entirely of silver essence. However, as Li Shaowei's martial spirit mutated into the golden-horned ox, Li Guangran was overjoyed and ordered someone to repaint the statue with gold powder.

It is not only to highlight the status of the Li family, but also to inspire the younger disciples of the Li family.

The layout of each table at this banquet was also very particular. There was a one-meter high platform in the center of the courtyard. The area was not very large. It was estimated that it would be used for a speech later.

There are four tables around the high platform, and the seats are all big shots from Deakin City, and each table is accompanied by a direct descendant of the Li family.

Further outside, that is, in the second circle, the number of tables has increased to eight. The status of the people who can sit here is not too low, but it is much worse than in the first circle. Most of them are younger generations who follow their elders and people called A famous soul master.

As for the third and fourth circles, there is no need to say more. The further out, the lower the status. The people sitting here are basically businessmen who have dealings with the Li family and the gentry and local tyrants from various towns.

Xu Ran and Xing Ling were sitting at a table in the fourth circle.

Maybe it was because the identities of Xu Ran and others were not important, or maybe it was because the seats were too far away. Half the table was already filled with dishes on other tables, but he only had a pitiful plate of "golden dragon eggs" here.

Commonly known as fried peanuts.

But Xu Ran didn't care about it. He picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth, while looking at the high platform in the center of the yard intentionally or unintentionally.

At this moment, Li Guangran was talking to Xia Mingfeng in the audience. Both of them had smiles on their faces, and occasionally burst into laughter. They looked closer than real brothers as they hugged each other.

Xia Yanran on the side also had a "sincere" smile on her face, dealing with the young disciples from various families who gathered around her, while looking at Xu Ran from time to time.

A girl with her looks, figure, and strength, and the daughter of the city lord, is undoubtedly the dream lover of countless teenagers in Deakin City.

But she only felt disgusted with these young people who were showing their attentiveness to her. Especially after seeing Xu Ran's incredible aptitude, this feeling became stronger.

It even made her hate attending various gatherings from the bottom of her heart, and she hated being buzzed in her ears by a group of flies who had neither strength nor knowledge of the world.

Just when Xia Yanran was thinking about finding an excuse to leave, she saw Li Hu quickly came to Li Guangran and whispered a few words in his ear.

Li Guangran nodded after hearing this, then bid farewell to Xia Mingfeng for a while, straightened out his brand new clothes, and climbed onto the high platform with a smile on his face.

As Li Guangran ascended the high platform, all the guests in the courtyard were soon seated under the guidance of the waiter, and the scene became quiet for a while.

"First of all, welcome everyone to come to my Li family to attend my seventieth birthday, Li Guangran, despite your busy schedule. On behalf of everyone in the Li family, I would like to express my gratitude to you all for coming."

When Li Guangran finished speaking, there was a burst of warm applause from the audience.

He pressed his hands around, and when the applause subsided, Li Guangran continued, "Actually, besides my birthday, there is another important thing to announce today, that is, my eldest grandson Li Shaowu and Duan Qianqian, the beloved daughter of Boss Duan of Qingfeng Building, will be here. The engagement is made today. As an elder, I hope that these two children will be happy and happy for a long time. It is best to give me a big, fat great-grandson as soon as possible."

As soon as these words came out, the audience burst into laughter.

At Li Guangran's signal, a young man and woman held hands and walked onto the stage to meet everyone in the "rain of flowers".

The man is tall and handsome, and the woman is lively and cute. Whenever they look at each other, their eyes are full of love. This makes many people feel envious and at the same time offer their blessings.

"I wish Mr. Li and Miss Duan happiness and longevity!"

"I wish Mr. Li and Miss Duan a happy life and a beautiful son soon!"

"wish……"

Looking at the newlyweds on the stage, Xu Ran didn't pay much attention at first, but suddenly felt the table in front of her tremble slightly. When she looked up, she found that Xing Ling was lowering her head. The trembling on the table was precisely because of her body. It's caused by trembling.

"Didn't you say you can accept it calmly?"

Xu Ran patted Xing Ling on the back, with a hint of ridicule in his tone.

Hearing Xu Ran's words, Xing Ling secretly wiped away his tears, then raised his head with a stubborn look and retorted, "It turns out that I just...just got sand in my eyes."

"Sand? I think you have a stone in your eye."

"Hmph, I want you to take care of it!"

"Speaking of which, Duan Qianqian looks older than you. She should be considered your cousin."

"Ah."

"Is she the one who slapped you in the face?"

There was an unconcealable sadness in Xing Ling's eyes. Although he didn't want to admit it, he finally nodded slightly.

Seeing Xing Ling's admission, Xu Ran did not continue to answer. He sipped the fragrant tea in the teacup, but his eyes had changed when he looked at Duan Qianqian on the high platform again.

At this time, there were fewer and fewer blessings in the venue, and suddenly a rough shout rang out, attracting the attention of all the guests.

"I wish Mr. Li and Miss Duan a sweet life and a lifetime of love. To show my love, I give this purple jade night pearl to you two."

I saw a burly man standing up from the second circle of seats, holding a crystal clear bead in his hand. The bead was lavender in color. Even in the daytime, it still exuded a little light and was very beautiful.

Seeing this, a waiter quickly came forward to accept the gift and express his gratitude.

With the beginning of the big man, more and more guests stood up to give gifts. Although each of them was very heroic when they made a move, and the smiles on their faces were also very sincere, little did they know that they had already scolded the Li family bloody in their hearts.

Because there was no news of Li Shaowu and Duan Qianqian's engagement before, we only knew that today was Li Guangran's th birthday, so everyone only prepared one gift, which was handed over to the receptionist when they entered the door.

At this moment, it was suddenly announced that the two were engaged, and someone had already started it. Anyone who knew a little bit about the world would never sit there and pretend to be dumbfounded. They could only bite the bullet and offer another thing.

Those who don’t have anything extra with them will ask their close friends to borrow something to offer, scrambling to be the first, for fear of losing the Li family’s face and causing unnecessary trouble.

The gift presentation process went quickly, and soon the Li family received nearly a hundred gifts. Although Li Guangran asked everyone not to be so polite throughout the process, the smile on his face was like a blooming old chrysanthemum, not to mention how happy he was.

He has seen the changes in the Li family over the years. Although most of them are due to luck, he knows in his heart, and all the guests present also know that,

The rise of the Li family has become unstoppable.

As an old man's gift ended, no one stood up again for more than a dozen breaths. Looking at the mountains of gifts, Li Guangran nodded secretly. Just as he was about to announce the start of the banquet, he was interrupted by a childish voice.

Looking up subconsciously, I saw a young man standing up slowly in the corner, holding a black bag in his hand.

Although the young man was dressed in ordinary clothes, he was very handsome, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and an indescribable temperament about him.

at the same time,.

There was an evil smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.

"Wait a minute, I have another gift to give."
