In the center of the hall, Vice Governor You and Zhuge Zhao stood there, attracting everyone's attention.

"Ahem, first of all, thank you all for coming to today's dinner." Vice Governor You said, holding the microphone.

"Some of you may not be familiar with the surname Zhuge, but I believe everyone knows that Zhuge Wuhou from the Three Kingdoms period, his descendants are the current Zhuge family."

"Zhuge Zhao graduated from Beijing University at the age of 18. Now she is 20 years old and has graduated from Beijing University as a graduate student. Faced with the opportunity to study for a doctorate, she resolutely chose to develop in Jiang Province."

As he spoke, Vice Governor You looked at Zhuge Zhao standing beside him and smiled.

There was an uproar in the audience. In fact, none of this mattered to them. What mattered was that Zhuge Zhao's last name was Zhuge, the same Zhuge as Zhuge Wuhou.

Zhuge Zhao smiled, picked up the microphone, and said, "I came to Jiang Province this time, not only because I wanted to visit Jiang Province, where I had lived for a few years, but also to find the child of my Zhuge family who was left behind."

"What? A child of the Zhuge family is left behind? And they have to find him specifically. Could he be a direct descendant?"

"Now that you mention it, it's very possible. If he is a direct descendant of the Zhuge family, then this is a great opportunity to soar to the sky."

"You guys think, could this person be me?"

"If you don't want to be mixed doubles with your parents, you can try it."

There was a lot of discussion in the audience, and Lin Yin and Jiang Zhiwan turned their eyes to Lu Ye.

"Could this be talking about you?" Lin Yin spoke. In fact, she was almost certain that it was Lu Ye who was talking about.

Lu Ye's mother's surname is Zhuge. As for Lu Ye now, the Zhuge family definitely hopes that Lu Ye will join the Zhuge family as a descendant of the Zhuge family.

After all, who wouldn’t like such a young man?

Lu Ye frowned and said, "My last name is not Zhuge."

Although, Lu Ye also guessed that Zhuge Zhao wanted him to join the Zhuge family.

Just the identity of the aunt certified by the system is already very intriguing.

As expected, Zhuge Zhao turned his gaze towards Lu Ye and stated his intention without any hesitation, "It's him, the wandering child of my Zhuge family."

All eyes turned to Lu Ye, as if trying to find out what was different about Lu Ye.

"No wonder Jiang Zhiwan likes him. He is from the Zhuge family."

"If that's the case, I should give up on my short but beautiful love."

"Brother, now I think you really have some ink."

"You are envious of the wrong thing. The point is not why Jiang Zhiwan likes him, but that he is actually a direct descendant of the Zhuge family."

“It seems that they are all very important.”

For a moment, Lu Ye became the focus of the whole audience, but it seemed that everyone's attention was not right.

At this time, Zhuge Zhao walked towards Lu Ye, chuckled, stretched out his hand, and said, "Let's go home with me."

This is a great opportunity to become a direct descendant of the Zhuge family, and in front of so many people, which not only satisfies one's vanity, but also gains identity and status.

According to Zhuge Zhao's idea, no one would refuse this.

Jiang Yunfei, who was sitting in the corner, was almost biting his teeth at this moment. Lu Ye was actually from the Zhuge family?

While his Jiang family was still working hard to become a Jiangnan family, Lu Ye had already become a direct descendant of the hidden Zhuge family.

This huge sense of gap made Jiang Yunfei difficult to accept for a while.

As the number one family in Jiang Province, Jiang Yunfei is more aware of the power of the Zhuge family. It is an existence that the Jiang family cannot catch up with no matter how hard they try.

If Lu Ye really became a direct descendant of the Zhuge family and obtained the resources of the Zhuge family, it would be even more difficult to take action against him.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yunfei's face became gloomy, and his expression was as ugly as it could be.

"Master Jiang, is three billion too expensive? But this blood-red fruit is genuine, and three billion is almost half of the market price."

Opposite Jiang Yunfei, there was a young man with a frightened look on his face, as if he was afraid that Jiang Yunfei would not make the deal.

Ever since Jiang Yunfei bought the thousand-year-old ginseng for 1 billion, there have been people who wanted to do business with Jiang Yunfei.

Most of them are due to lack of funds at home, and have no choice but to sell these valuable resource items which are of little use but are not worth keeping.

For example, this blood-red fruit can be sold for 5 billion on the black market because it is an extremely rare fruit that condenses spiritual power and is called a spiritual fruit.

Jiang Yunfei took a deep breath and calmed himself down before speaking, "Yes, why not? I told you, the Jiang family will take as many as they have."

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang." The young man burst into tears of gratitude.

Jiang Yunfei sneered in his heart, what a bunch of idiots, if they want to reach a higher level, there must be a strong person in the family, otherwise they will be killed in the process of development.

If it weren't for Lu Ye, the Jiang family would have been destroyed long ago.

Turning his gaze back to Lu Ye, Lu Ye did not shake Zhuge Zhao's hand, but still remained a little wary.

"My last name is not Zhuge." Lu Ye shook his head and refused.

Zhuge Zhao obviously didn't expect that Lu Ye would actually reject him. Do young boys nowadays not like this?

Zhuge Zhao raised his eyebrows and continued, "I know, but your mother's last name is Zhuge, so you are a member of the Zhuge family, as long as you change your last name."

Changing the surname was said very lightly, as if changing it to Zhuge was such an honorable thing.

Although, for most people, the surname Zhuge does have a sense of honor.

But Lu Ye doesn't think so.

"No need. Since my mother agreed to let me have the surname Lu, there is no need to change it." Lu Ye said calmly, refusing decisively.

Zhuge Zhao's expression froze and he didn't know what to say.

At this time, Lin Yin burst out laughing, "Little girl from the Zhuge family, if Lu Ye could join a faction so easily, he would have been a member of our Quan Wu Cult long ago?"

"Lin Yin?" Zhuge Zhao frowned as if he had just discovered Lin Yin was here, and said, "You all in the Wu Cult are moving as fast as ever."

"Not really, it's just that the frequency of worship is higher than yours." Lin Yin spread her hands and said.

Although Lin Yin said before that the Quan Wu Cult and the Zhuge family had a good relationship, it seems that the relationship between Lin Yin and Zhuge Zhao is very ordinary.

Deputy Governor You on the side laughed and said, "This matter is not urgent, please sit down first."

As he spoke, Vice Governor You sat down next to Lu Ye. Lu Ye raised his glass and drank a glass with Vice Governor You.

No one noticed that there was something strange in Lin Yin's eyes when she looked at Vice Governor You.
