"Yes, yes, I’ll get lost right away." Tian Long nodded repeatedly without daring to meet his second uncle’s eyes, hurriedly leading his people out. The ones who came with Tian Long looked shocked as they left the private room.

No one at Tian Long’s birthday party was from an ordinary family; the difference was only in the size of their family background. Thus, they instantly recognized the people sitting inside the private room—almost half of the top industry figures in Luocheng.
