Instructing her daughter to practice throwing knives, the police were frightened and asked to file

Tom Twelve snorted coldly and said nothing more. Zheng Xiu then asked, "So, Mr. Tom Twelve, do you plan to wait here or arrange accommodation first?"

Tom Twelve replied: "Of course we were arranged to stay first, there are so many of us."

Zheng Xiu thought to himself, you are asking for trouble, why bother talking so much? Do you think I am afraid of you?
Soon, Tom Twelve and his group were arranged to stay in the hotel. Tom Twelve specifically reminded them: "Don't forget that there is a banquet tonight."

"Of course. How could we forget such an important thing?" Zheng Xiu responded.

Afterwards, Zheng Xiu hurried to Shui Wenrou's office and reported to her about the reception, including how Tom Twelve had intimidated him and how he had responded.

After hearing this, Shui Wenrou said approvingly: "Well done, that's the way it should be. Although we are a small country, we can't let them bully us."

Zheng Xiu then handed over the list of people attending the banquet, "Lord, this is the list of people for tonight's banquet. Only two masters from the Flower Kingdom are coming this time, and the others will not sit at the same table with them."

Shui Wenrou nodded gently, but Zheng Xiu was still a little worried. "Although we have the advantage in numbers and it is on our territory, we don't know what conspiracy the Hua people will play. So, we still have to be careful when the time comes."

Shui Wenrou comforted her, "Don't worry, I know what's going on. It's expected that they'll give us problems, but they shouldn't be too excessive."

At the same time, Qin Tian was anxiously waiting for the evening banquet. He couldn't wait after lunch. Zhu Qin saw his eagerness and joked, "Brother Qin Tian, ​​the banquet will start sooner or later. Why are you so anxious? And, I see you treat this place as your own home, why are you so worried?"

Qin Tian smiled and said nothing, but he admitted in his heart that he did regard the things here as more important than his own. He thought about it and decided to call back home to ask about the progress of the martial arts school. He called the contractor and learned that the martial arts school was still under construction and it was expected to take several months to complete.

Qin Tian reminded: "It doesn't matter if you build slowly, but you must ensure the quality, and there must not be shoddy construction." The other party made repeated assurances, which made him feel at ease.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Qin Tian changed into a waiter's uniform and came to the hotel. The waiters had been informed of his special identity and specially arranged for him to serve food to Shui Wenrou's table. Qin Tian also deliberately made some disguises to prevent being recognized by Tom Twelve.

He called Shui Wenrou, who told him, "We'll be there at 5:30, just wait there."

While waiting, Qin Tian chatted with several waiters. His approachable attitude made the waiters feel very friendly. They all said that although Qin Tian had a high status, he was not arrogant at all.

Qin Tian smiled and said, "What status? It's all fake. We are all the same."

This attitude brought him closer to the waiters. Although they might not work together again in the future, Qin Tian always remained humble and low-key.

At half past five, Shui Wenrou and the representatives met Tom Twelve at the entrance of the hotel. The two sides exchanged a few pleasantries, and Tom Twelve praised Shui Wenrou for her youth and potential, but at the same time he also hinted that she had obtained her position illegally from her father.

Shui Wenrou smiled calmly and responded: "This era needs fresh blood, not just in Lin Country, but all over the world. Otherwise, being too conservative is not good for the people."

Tom Twelve naturally understood that this was a mockery of his age. Zheng Xiu thought to himself that Tom Twelve was really asking for trouble. As for Tom Thirteen, Tom Twelve simply introduced him and did not have a deep conversation.

Zheng Xiu suggested: "Okay, let's hurry into the banquet."

The banquet venue was well-decorated, and Tom Twelve was quite satisfied after he walked in. But he couldn't help but tease, "I thought the Lord of Water Country didn't welcome an old man like me, but I didn't expect him to be so enthusiastic."

Shui Wenrou smiled and responded: "What are you talking about, Lord Tom? We in Lin Country welcome all sincere and friendly friends. Anyone who sincerely interacts with us is our honored guest."

After some polite words, the banquet officially began and the dishes were served one after another. When several big men walked into the room, Qin Tian and other waiters saw them. Shui Wenrou deliberately did not greet Qin Tian, ​​maintaining the attitude of a stranger.

After a while, Qin Tian quietly walked into the room to serve the dishes without any eye contact or greeting with Shui Wenrou. However, without attracting anyone's attention, he carefully observed the two people sitting in the main seat. Although they were polite on the surface, they revealed a sense of arrogance in their bones.

After serving the dishes, Qin Tian stood at the door, ready to help guests who needed service. Tom Twelve did not take the waiter seriously, and did not know the true identity of the waiter, so he did not pay much attention.

Qin Tian was also thinking in his heart that even if Tom Twelve really wanted to cause trouble for him, he had a plan to deal with it. After all, according to the hotel's rules, if a foreign leader was fussy with a waiter, it would only become a laughing stock for others. Since the other party did not take the initiative to provoke him, it was naturally the best.

Before long, the topic of the banquet turned to the right track. Tom Twelve pointed at Tom Thirteen and said to Shui Wenrou, "Lord Shui, this is my nephew. You two are about the same age. In addition to the normal state affairs exchange, my visit this time also has another meaning. I hope to promote good things between the two of you."

Hearing this, Tom Thirteen immediately stretched out his hand to shake hands with Shui Wenrou. When he first saw Shui Wenrou, he felt that she was even more beautiful than in the photo. Although he was very excited, he still tried to restrain himself and not be too rude.

Shui Wenrou also extended her hand, but said with a pun: "Mr. Tom Thirteen, it seems that you are not very familiar with international etiquette. According to convention, when a man and a woman shake hands, the woman should extend her hand first."

Tom Thirteen suddenly felt a little embarrassed and apologized quickly: "Yes, yes, Lord Shui, you are right."

Although Tom Twelve was dissatisfied in his heart, he laughed out loud on the surface: "Children are ignorant, I hope Lord Shui doesn't mind. You are about the same age, but you look much more mature."

Shui Wenrou smiled calmly and then let go of her hand. Tom Twelve took the opportunity to ask, "Master Shui, what do you think about this matter?"

Shui Wenrou declined politely, "I appreciate Lord Tom's kindness, but I already have a boyfriend. In our Lin Kingdom, we also practice monogamy, just like your country. So, I can only appreciate your kindness."

Tom Twelve was not surprised by this. He had known Shui Wenrou would say this. "As far as I know, your boyfriend is from the Kyushu Empire."

"Yes, he is a foreigner, and your nephew is also a foreigner. There is no difference." Shui Wenrou answered frankly.

Tom Thirteen was a little anxious: "Lord Shui, we have also learned some information. That man is called Mr. Fang, right? Although he is somewhat famous now, his identity does not match yours."

Tom Twelve sang a duet in cooperation: "Mr. Fang, is your name Qin Tian?"

"Yes, uncle, that's him," said Tom XIII, with a thoughtful look on his face. "Why does this name sound so familiar to me?"

"Nephew, it sounds familiar. Shang Hao was beaten by him." Tom Twelve suddenly slammed the table and looked at Shui Wenrou with wide eyes, "Lord Shui, if you didn't mention this, I would have forgotten about it. My nephew's secretary was beaten, and I need an explanation for this matter."

Everyone turned their eyes to Shui Wenrou, wanting to see how she would respond. Before, everyone had asked her how she would answer if this question was raised, but Shui Wenrou just said that she would tell them when the time came. At this moment, Shui Wenrou pretended to know nothing: "What's going on with this? How come I don't know anything about it?" Her confused look made her look like an excellent actress.

Zheng Xiu almost couldn't hold back his laughter. He cleared his throat and told the whole story. Shui Wenrou pretended to be surprised and said, "There is such a thing? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Your Majesty, you are busy with many affairs every day. This is just a small matter. Why bother you with it?" Zheng Xiu replied.

Tom Thirteen slammed the table and shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about? How can it be called a small matter? The person who was beaten was my secretary, and his arm was broken. I want to meet this Qin Tian and ask him why he did this."

Qin Tian, ​​who was standing at the door, almost laughed out loud when he heard this. He didn't expect Shui Wenrou to have such superb acting skills. This rich expression and reaction was obviously prepared long ago.

Shui Wenrou looked at Tom Thirteen and Tom Twelve and said, "From what you said, it was Shang Hao who molested my maid first, so this happened."

"Yes, Lord, that's right." Zheng Xiu agreed.

Tom Twelve and Tom Thirteen were stunned. They didn't expect that the girl was actually someone close to Shui Wenrou. This really stirred up a hornet's nest. Wasn't Shang Hao looking for trouble for them?

Shui Wenrou looked at the two and said, "So that's what happened. Qin Tian did nothing wrong. I want to ask you, who is this Shang Hao you are talking about? Why was he rude to my maid? Was he deliberately provoking me?"

Just like that, Shui Wenrou skillfully threw the question to the other party.

Tom Twelve and Tom Thirteen naturally saw that Shui Wenrou was pretending to be confused, but her acting skills were so superb that they were a little confused for a moment.

Tom Thirteen said bluntly, "Everyone loves beauty. It's only natural for my secretary to flirt with that pretty girl when she sees her."

After hearing this, Shui Wenrou smiled secretly in her heart. She finally understood the meaning of the saying "I am not afraid of god-like opponents, but I am afraid of pig-like teammates." Tom Thirteen's words were undoubtedly embarrassing Tom Twelve.

Sure enough, Tom Twelve's face turned ugly in an instant. He had repeatedly reminded Tom Thirteen on the way how to phrase this matter, but he didn't expect that he still said it wrong.

The words had already been spoken, and it was useless to remind him again. Shui Wenrou was secretly delighted, as she had finally caught the evidence.

"From what you said, it seems like you guys often do this kind of thing?" Shui Wenrou asked gently.

Tom Twelve then realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly defended himself: "Lord Shui, even if we are wrong, Mr. Fang is too much, right? And I have already revealed my identity at that time."

Tom Thirteen also echoed, "Qin Tian clearly knew our identities, but he still did this. It's clear that he is dissatisfied with the Flower Kingdom. And I didn't even know that the maid was the Lord of the Water Kingdom."

The eight people from Lin State all felt that Tom Thirteen was extremely shameless.

Shui Wenrou thought that it was time for Qin Tian to show up. She had already made up her mind that no matter how impulsive Qin Tian was or how he acted, she would fully support him. Because the method was not important, what was important was that Qin Tian was doing it for her good, and that was enough.

Others also thought that Shui Wenrou would support Qin Tian.

At this moment, Qin Tian pushed the door open and sneered, "You two guys, you still have the nerve to bring up this matter? It's really funny!"

Tom Twelve was furious: "A small waiter dares to accuse me? This is simply lawless!"

Shui Wenrou smiled gently: "He is very qualified to take care of this matter."

Qin Tian looked at them coldly: "Shang Hao behaved like that because he deserved it. I didn't beat him to death, which was already considered mercy."

These words once again surprised Tom Twelve and Tom Thirteen.

"What? You are Qin Tian?" Tom XIII exclaimed.

Qin Tian nodded and stood up: "What? Is it strange? Why am I a waiter?"

Tom Twelve cursed his nephew in his heart for being stupid, as it was obvious that the other party was a fake.

"Aren't you working as a waiter because of us?" Qin Tian asked sarcastically.

Shui Wenrou said gently, "That's right. We originally arranged for him to attend the banquet, but you guys just didn't want to, so we had to resort to this last resort."

Tom Twelve stood up and glared at Shui Wenrou: "Lord of the Water Kingdom, are you going to be an enemy of the Flower Kingdom?"

Qin Tian had secretly filmed the moment when he got angry. Seeing him get angry, he added fuel to the fire: "What do you mean? Tom Twelve, are you so unreasonable? You start threatening when you can't reason with me, it's really ridiculous!"

Tom Twelve was speechless for a moment. Just as he was about to speak, Qin Tian spoke first, "I am a citizen of the Jiuzhou Empire. If you want to deal with me, you will be the enemy of the Jiuzhou Empire. Think carefully about it."

Tom Twelve suddenly felt extremely aggrieved. He was depressed because if the other party was from Lin Country, it would be fine, but it happened to be from Jiuzhou Empire. He couldn't openly become an enemy of Jiuzhou Empire just because of one person.

He was different from his nephew, who only cared about Shanghao's injuries and their dignity, but he had to consider more.

Qin Tian looked at Tom Thirteen coldly: "You said you didn't know Shui Lili's identity, so you did that, right?"

"Yes, so I, the secretary, am responsible, but you shouldn't hit him." Tom XIII replied. (End of this chapter)
