Chapter 19 The Eve of the Race

Chapter 19: Eve of the Clan Competition ()

The next day, when the warm sunlight slowly fell on the earth, the atmosphere of the Du family suddenly became a little warm.

Of course, this enthusiasm also has a bit of anxiety and weirdness. The reason is nothing more, just because this annual event will determine how many people will destiny in the next year, or even their life.

This kind of life is extremely important to the Du family! No one dares to underestimate it, whether it is an elder or a junior.

The venue for the clan meeting was the square in front of the Du Family Hall. At this moment, a huge ring had been built on the square, and the front of the ring was a VIP seat. At this moment, there were already many people sitting on the VIP seat.

In addition to the senior management of the Du family, there are many people in the VIP seat, who are greeting each other. Most of these people have some identities in Buyue City and have some friendship with the Du family. Even the Lian family and Gongsun family, which are both three major forces, are intriguing, and everyone is doing extremely well on the surface. Therefore, the members of the Lian family and Gongsun family are smiling on the VIP seat.

No matter what kind of thoughts, I pay great attention to the annual event of the Du family.

If a family wants to maintain its prosperity, the most important thing is its successor. If a family has no successor, then no matter how powerful the family is now, it will slowly decline in the future. On the contrary, if a family continues to inject fresh blood, even if the family has average power at the moment, it will continue to become stronger.

Therefore, almost everyone is extremely concerned about such grand occasions.

Standing outside the square with Xiao Ai, Du Fei squinted his eyes and looked at the direction of the VIP seat, and he didn't know what it felt like.

He has attended similar events, but the first time he was in such an outer area made him feel a little bit different.

"Even Zhen is here!" After a moment of sight, Du Fei suddenly sneered and said lightly.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ai's eyes also swept over and fell on Lian Zhen, who was smiling on the VIP seat. She gritted her teeth and said, "This guy is really shameless. He dares to show up in the Du family!"

"This is normal." After taking a breath, Du Fei's mood calmed down again, and he said lightly, "Then Lian Zhen is the first person in the Lian family generation. If nothing unexpected happens, the next head of the family must be him. He will appear. What's so strange?"

"Hmph!" Xiao Ai snorted, obviously still a little angry about the events that day.

Du Fei didn't say much, but his eyes continued to sweep over the VIP seat. After a moment, his attention was focused on a woman in red.

The woman was about twenty years old, with a pretty face and a hot figure. She was wearing a fiery red skirt and exposed her slender and fair thighs outside. She didn't know that many of the gazes seemed to fall on the pair of thighs in disrespect, but if the master's eyes swept over the lightly, those people's eyes were all rushing away.

But the one who was sitting next to this woman was the first junior of the Du family, Du Han.

The woman seemed very interested in Du Han. She always looked like a flowery smile, but Du Han seemed to be very interested, and she just replied in a mess.

"Who is this woman?" Du Fei said lightly after a while.

Xiao Ai also glanced over and said with a little displeasure: "This woman is Gongsun Hong of the Gongsun family, and it is said that she is also an extremely talented person. It is said that he is quite interested in Young Master Du Han, and the two families seem to have signs of marriage, but it is hard to say now."

"Gongsun Family, Gongsun Hong." Du Fei nodded slightly.

"What? Young Master, are you interested in her? I heard that this woman really likes younger people. If you are interested, you will perform well today and you should have the chance to fall under someone's pomegranate skirt!" Xiao Ai took a breath and said lightly in a cold tone.

Du Fei was choked and couldn't help but shake his head and smiled bitterly: "Do you think I'm interested in this kind of thing now? There are too many things I have to do... too many..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ai's face suddenly dimmed, as if he wanted to say something, but he did not speak in the end.

Instead, Du Fei reached out and rubbed her head, smiled and said, "Okay, let's enter the venue too. I don't know how many people are waiting to see our jokes today... We can't let them down too much!"

After saying that, Du Fei pulled Xiao Ai and walked slowly towards the VIP seat.

In the Du family, children from the inner division can also be placed in VIP seats. As for Xiao Ai's identity is quite special at the moment because of the great elder Du Zhenshan, and no one will say anything more to her if she wants to attend the VIP seat.

In the VIP seat, there were a few young people talking and laughing in a low voice, but while they were joking, one of them had a slightly dark face and his smile instantly converged.

The remaining people also followed his gaze, and then they all showed a slightly smile-like expression.

"Isn't this Du Fei's cousin? It's been a long time since we saw each other!" It was Du Qing who stood in front of him. He shook his hand slightly, and seemed to have taken a few steps forward casually, but blocked Du Fei's way.

Du Fei paused slightly, and the expression on his face was extremely plain: "It turns out to be Mr. Du Qing... I can't bear it after a cousin! I borrowed it!"

After saying that, Du Fei was better than a good dog without blocking the road.

"Haha." Du Qing's face remained unchanged, "I'm afraid you can't go to the location behind me, my cousin!"

Du Fei smiled and said, "Is there any problem?"

Seeing Du Fei's expression, Du Qing seemed to think deliberately for a moment before sneering, saying, "The position behind is only the children of the Du family who are qualified to sit... As for you, don't go over and embarrass you!"

"Oh? Could it be that there is something wrong with Young Master Du Qing's mind? If I remember correctly, the head of the family has already said that I am a child of the internal department, right?" Du Fei said calmly.

"Even if it is now, it may not be possible afterwards!" Du Qing curled his lips and said with a strange look on his face.

Du Fei chuckled, but just shook his head and said nothing more. He just pulled Xiao Ai and passed by, then found a seat and sat down.

"You can be arrogant for a while now! After the clan competition, even that old ghost can't protect you!" Angry by Du Fei's attitude, the muscles on his face beat slightly for a moment, Du Qing couldn't help but not take action, but just sneered in his heart.

"That guy was polite before, but why did he become so annoying now?"

Xiao Ai sat down on one side with Du Fei and said softly with a slight dissatisfaction.

"Who is it all blamed?" Du Fei glanced at Xiao Ai and said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ai's face changed slightly and he whispered: "Blame me..."

"Okay, okay!" Du Fei smiled, "Even without you, my life would not be easy. Don't think too much."

While the two of them were talking, the direction of the main hall was slightly disturbed, and then someone quickly retreated. Then, a group of people walked towards the VIP seat with big strides.

But at the top of the crowd was Du Zhentian, the head of the Du family, followed closely by the great elder Du Zhenshan, the second elder Du Zhenxuan and the third elder Du Zhenfeng. As for the middle-aged people who followed closely behind, Du Fei did not recognize half of them.

However, after watching for a while, Du Fei was slightly stunned. The Du Qian he saw in Xiuwu Pavilion that day was also among the crowd. Although she was not holding the scroll as before, her face was extremely dull, as if this Du family event had no effect on her.

Under Du Zhentian's leadership, the appearance of these senior Du family members calmed down the originally chaotic scene on the VIP seat.

Du Zhentian casually greeted the guests around him, and then sat down in the middle of the seat, and the other three elders also sat down one after another.

"You are the son of the fourth brother, Du Fei?"

It seemed that he had noticed Du Fei's gaze. A middle-aged man following Du Zhentian hesitated for a while, then walked slowly over and said with a smile.

Seeing the middle-aged man greeting him on his own initiative, Du Fei stood up quickly, hesitated for a while, and then said with some uncertainty: "Uncle!"

"Haha, good boy, we have only seen it once, and I didn't expect you to remember me." The middle-aged man smiled and said with a little relief.

Upon hearing this, Du Fei thought completely. This person called Du Xuanfeng, and his father seemed to be cousins. Although the blood between them was thin, his father treated him as his biological elder brother.

In other words, this one is barely his uncle. This one came once when he was in that town. Although Du Fei was young at that time, he didn't know much about what happened at that time, but he remembered that this uncle was quite kind to him.

"It's Du Fei who is not polite. He has been to the Du family for so many days and has not visited him." After taking a breath, Du Fei said without being arrogant or humble.

"Haha, it's about to be a tribe competition. I understand that you are busy practicing." Du Xuanfeng reached out and patted Du Fei's shoulder. After a moment, his eyes fell on Xiao Ai and said with a little weirdness, "This is the girl Xiao Ai who is quite famous in our Du family these days? Haha, it's better to see it at first sight than to hear it!"

"See... I've seen..." Xiao Ai hesitated.

"Haha, it's okay. Just call me as an uncle like Fei'er. We have seen him when we were young, haha..." As he said that, Du Xuanfeng waved to the back and said lightly, "Qian'er, come and see your brother Du Fei."

Seeing him speak out, the girl sitting on the chair with a look of indifference, hesitated for a while before slowly walking over and said lightly: "I have met cousin Du Fei."

Seeing this girl, Du Fei's face twitched slightly. After a moment, he suddenly remembered something. No wonder the name Du Qian is so familiar with him!
