“Looks like Young Master Quan knows how to behave. No wonder our Jiaojiao is so devoted to him.” Yan Qingqing accepted her gift.
Fu Shangchen smiled politely and nodded at everyone. “Sir has instructed me to settle other matters. I’ll take my leave first. Take care.”
Everyone nodded and watched as Fu Shangchen left.
“Let me see what Quan Jue gave us.” Shen Liao opened the exquisite paper bag and realized that there was a piece of protective jade inside. The patterns on the jade were exquisite, and everyone’s jade was of a different color. Upon closer inspection, he realized that the patterns formed their names. The jade pieces exuded an ancient aura and were not ordinary items.
“This is the Xuan Sect’s protective jade. Only very high-ranking elders can have it. It can change a person’s magnetic field and protect us. You can’t buy it with money.” Gong Lu had already put on the protective jade pendant as he spoke.
It had to be said that Quan Jue was very generous. This protective jade was not an ordinary piece of expensive jewelry. It piqued their interest. This protective jade was as magical as the rumors said. The moment they put it on, their fatigue seemed to be relieved, and they felt refreshed.
They all put on their protective jade. Gu Xia looked inside the paper bag and realized that there was an invitation inside.
Gu Xia took it out and examined it carefully. He realized that it was an invitation to the banquet held by the Xuan Sect in three days.
The Xuan Sect rarely held banquets. Those who were invited were usually core members of the most elite families. It was obvious how precious this invitation was.
“Is this kid in a hurry to hold a celebration party?” Chi Yexi took out his invitation and couldn’t help teasing.
“Looks like there will be a good show to watch. We can join in the fun.” Gong Lu gently waved the invitation and smiled.
Seeing that Gong Lu was interested, Yan Zhengchen smiled and said, “Since you want to go, let’s go together to help Jiaojiao.”
Everyone agreed with him. After putting away the invitations, they got into their cars and drove away.
Meanwhile, Fu Shangchen took the elevator to the lobby on the first floor.
Xiao Jin had been looking all over for Fu Shangchen. He looked anxious. Finally finding him, he rushed over impatiently and reached out to grab his collar. “Where did you go? Do you know that Sir has been looking for you? Hurry up and come upstairs with me.”
Xiao Jin had been treating Fu Shangchen with this kind of rude attitude for the past few days. And now, there was no need for Fu Shangchen to tolerate him anymore. He grabbed Xiao Jin’s arm and then threw him over his shoulder, causing him to fall to the ground.
Xiao Jin felt the world spin around him. There was a cracking sound, as if something had shattered. A piercing pain came from his shoulder.
“Ah—!” Xiao Jin screamed like a pig being slaughtered. The staff passing by were all shocked. They stood rooted to the ground.
“I’ve been enduring you for the past few days. Do you really think you can show off in front of me?” Fu Shangchen casually took off the work pass on his neck and threw it on the ground, before stomping on it. “Go and tell Quan Jingzhou that the information on the shares he bought these past few days is in his drawer. Let him read for himself. I won’t serve him anymore.”
