Chapter 482 [131] Take a seat with my wife!
Struggling to overcome the pain of her high heels, Mu Yue, wearing a police uniform, tried to walk as gracefully as possible with her husband's arm, and entered the banquet venue with Qin Jiandan.

Qin Jiandan's eyes suddenly opened up.

The whole space is dominated by deep purple and cold blue, as if it perfectly blends the cyberpunk futuristic sense with classical luxury. The crystal chandelier hangs down like a waterfall, emitting a dazzling light, which complements the neon lights outside the window.

The Night Dragon Society's tax revenue in East City mainly comes from business dividends, and the practices of the three major families in the inner city are also similar. Although the company gets most of the inner city's tax revenue, the three major families can use their own business to invest in merchants and conduct various interest exchanges.

This restaurant in front of me is just like this. The air is filled with the fragrance of wine and the tempting aroma of exquisite dishes. I heard from Mu Yue that this is one of the family's regular gathering places, and privacy and safety are guaranteed.

"Daughter, can I drink as much as I want today?"

Han Tiancheng's police uniform brought out some of the majesty of the former deputy chief of police, all thanks to Nestor. Accompanied by Nestor, Han Tiancheng walked behind his daughter and son-in-law, and gradually straightened his back.

"You can drink less." Mu Yue thought about it and replied, "I can't drink much, and Jian Dan will be delayed if he drinks too much. You can block some of the wine for us."

"Great!" Han Tiancheng was very excited. He, a drunkard, could finally make a contribution today. It could be considered as turning waste into treasure.

When Qin Jiandan and Mu Yue walked into the restaurant, they attracted a lot of people's attention. Some people greeted them, but their attitudes were not particularly enthusiastic.

This is because the Chief of Police has not yet publicly announced that Qin Jiandan cured the patriarch's illness, and most people don't even know that the patriarch was once critically ill. At present, the Han family's impression of Qin Jiandan has been brainwashed by the overwhelming Super Baji advertisements, and they think Mu Yue and Jiandan are quite shameful...

Qin Jiandan knew very well that this gathering was of great significance to the alliance between the Yelong Society and the Han family, and would also have a profound impact on Mu Yue's position in the Han family (although Mu Yue did not value this), so he tried to speak less and observe more.

"What kind of wine is this?" Han Tiancheng, who was greedy, didn't care about etiquette and went to the wine lounge to ask the waiter in advance. Nestor couldn't persuade him from behind.

"I won't drink the electronic dream beer this time. I'll sleepwalk at night if I drink it... Is this the "Blues Noble" cocktail?"

Qin Jiandan and Mu Yue discussed it and decided to allow his father-in-law to act freely. After all, they couldn't expect him, who was usually so sloppy, to suddenly sit up straight.

"Nestor, be careful not to let Dad get drunk before the party starts..."

Qin Jiandan looked around while enjoying Mu Yue's rare embrace.

People who work in the Police Department naturally wear police uniforms, while other men wear well-tailored black suits and women wear blue evening gowns, most of which are bold designs with low cuts and high slits.

Many of the attendees were young people. Although the Chief of Police previously commented that this generation of young Han family members are "rotten inside", it has to be admitted that the Han family members as a whole are good-looking, at least "golden outside and jade inside".

Qin Jiandan noticed that although everyone was dressed up carefully, the overall atmosphere was not ostentatious. Instead, it revealed a kind of restrained luxury, which did not put much psychological pressure on the ordinary police officers present.

The layout of the restaurant makes clever use of space, allowing everyone to maintain privacy while still feeling the lively atmosphere of the entire banquet. Soft music flows in the air, interweaving with the whispers of family members, forming a unique background sound.

Qin Jiandan asked Mu Yue jokingly, "Will there be a dancing session later?"

Without being discovered by others, Mu Yue pinched Qin Jiandan's arm with the hand that was holding Qin Jiandan.

Qin Jiandan and Mu Yue continued to walk deeper into the restaurant. Qin Jiandan observed that behind an explosion-proof glass fence that was obviously higher than the dining platform, several city police officers in uniform were carrying out security work.

They were not invited to the banquet like Lizard Girl Jenny, but their presence at the venue also meant that they were highly trusted by the Han family.

"Sheriff..."

Jenny, dressed in ordinary police uniform, walked towards Mu Yue, and she was obviously a little nervous.

"I was processing files at the police department when the chief of police suddenly called me to attend the Han family's dinner... Although I'm honored, I don't know many people here..."

Mu Yue held Qin Jiandan's hand in front of her subordinates, which broke her "forcing herself to stay in front of other family members". She felt a little embarrassed, but she couldn't let go easily.

"Anyway...you sit at the same table with us. Now that we're here you'll have someone to talk to, right?"

Qin Jiandan still had a deep impression of Jenny. Her husband was Xu Ritian, who ran a Chinese medicine pharmacy. Because of Xu Ritian and Jenny, Qin Jiandan fought against the abbot Ba Ma Kong in Fahai Temple, and finally forced Ba Ma Kong and Master Wanjun to return to secular life...

The lizard wife's police uniform swung out a lizard tail, which was thinner and longer than Vale's dog tail. After her transformation into a human, she basically retained her human appearance, except for the tail, and only the shoulders and the outside of the eyes had glittering lizard scales.

The Chief of Police invited Qin Jiandan and Mu Yue to take a seat. This round table was next to the podium used for formal speeches and presentations, where the Chief of Police himself also sat.

Before Mu Yue and the others arrived, the Chief of Police was either instructing the waiters to prepare for the banquet or sitting and chatting with Jenny. It is easy to imagine how terrified Jenny was when she suddenly faced the Chief of Police who was several levels older than her.

Fortunately, among the three major families, only the Han family has a certain degree of acceptance of Furui people. Most of the Han family members are doing police work, and some of them are inevitably on the front line, so there are many who have become Furui people - you can't discriminate against yourself, right? "Mu Yue, you haven't worn a police uniform for a long time. I think this suits you better."

Qin Jiandan wanted to give a thumbs up to the Chief of Police's opinion. If possible, he would rather Mu Yue sit in a safe place and not put herself in danger.

"You can't run fast in high heels, and you won't be able to catch up with the bad guys." Mu Yue sat down and pressed her legs together to prevent her skirt from exposing herself. She glanced at Qin Jiandan next to her and said:

"And they will be caught up by the bad guys."

Mu Yue's alcohol tolerance is not good, and her personality will soften after drinking. Wearing police uniforms and high heels also has a similar effect. If this was not the case when she first met Qin Jiandan, it is still unknown how the two would develop.

The round table can seat six or seven people in total. At this time, the clockwise order is: Qin Jiandan, Mu Yue, Jenny, Nestor, Han Tiancheng and the Chief of Police. The Chief of Police leaves the table from time to time to coordinate the overall situation.

Han Tiancheng stared at the bottle of wine that the waiter brought up, drooling. He introduced them to Qin Jiandan like a treasure:
"This bottle of red wine, as deep as a ruby, is called "Light of Order". It tastes sweet. Every glass is a tribute to the Police Department for maintaining order in Ringstone City!"

"This blue cocktail is the Blues Noble, which represents the color of the SWAT uniform. It has a refreshing taste and is quite popular among women."

"The taste of this "Glory Oath" whiskey is a bit manly. The authentic way to drink it is to serve it in a wine glass made of special steel. It tastes hard and cold!"

These bottles of wine looked very high-end, and matched the exquisite tableware on the table. Unfortunately, Qin Jiandan was not very interested.

"No beer? I prefer regular beer."

Mu Yue glanced at her husband, meaning that he should drink as little as possible. She didn't want Qin Jiandan to become an alcoholic like his father.

"S-Sorry! I just went to the bathroom!"

The rabbit reporter Ding Ling who suddenly appeared here surprised Qin Jiandan and Mu Yue.

The Chief of Police introduced, "I asked her to come here. There are many suspicions about the alliance between the Han family and the Night Dragon Society. In this case, let the reporters send out the on-site report to deter the Ding family and the Luo family."

Han Tiancheng frowned and said, "But Ding Ling himself is a member of the Ding family!"

The lively, timid and cheerful rabbit reporter had a heavy film camera hanging around his neck and a recorder dangling beside him, occasionally hitting his big breasts that were disproportionate to his body.

"I am just a marginal person in the Ding family. They don't consider me one of their own... My only identity is an external reporter for Crime Fighter magazine. Wherever there is news, there I am!"

Having said this, she timidly glanced at Qin Jiandan who was sitting in the seat. The young master asked her to be the news slave of the Night Dragon Society, but she herself cared more about the neutrality of the news.

The last time Ding Ling was interviewing at the Steel Flower Language Exhibition Hall, she suddenly wanted to go to the bathroom at an important moment (Qin Jiandan's time was overwritten), so this time she decided to clean up in advance.

But I just went to the bathroom, why did I want to go again after being seen by the young master? Hold it in! I can't miss the important news release!

Today's banquet was of great importance, so Qin Jiandan didn't have time to go to the bathroom himself. Fortunately, he had time to overwrite and Ding Ling's mobile toilet was there, which saved him a lot of trouble.

In this way, there were a total of 7 people sitting at Qin Jiandan's table, including Ding Ling.

This kind of "parent seat" is usually the seat for the oldest or highest-ranking member of the family. Not to mention the worldly-wise Nestor, Jenny feels very uncomfortable. However, Ding Ling often leaves her seat to take pictures and doesn't think there is anything wrong with it.

Qin Jiandan was still observing the environment. These were the only two "parent seats" in the banquet hall. The parent seats opposite were empty, presumably because Han Sen, Han Yuan and the others were not invited.

There are no windows next to the parents' seats and the seats close to them. Instead, they are replaced with digitally simulated architectural light and shadows - this should be for safety reasons, to prevent snipers from taking advantage of the situation.

"Everyone, please be quiet." Seeing that the time was almost up and everyone had arrived, the Chief of Police walked to the podium holding a glass of "Order Light".

"I have gathered everyone tonight and have a few things to announce. Perhaps many people don't know that the head of the family, my father Han Wanli, has been fighting against death for some time?"

"What?" Many people below immediately became restless.

"The master of the family is ill!?"

"How can you still have the time to hold a banquet at this time?"
