Spiritual energy resurgence? My former empress wife has also revived!

The Millennium Hotel is located on the shore of East Lake. The fact that such a hotel can be opened in this prime location speaks volumes about the financial strength of the people behind it.

The hotel's banquet hall was brightly lit and bustling with activity.

Qin Shishi performed well in the college entrance examination and was admitted to Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

Qin Sheng was overjoyed. In addition, he had made a fortune in the past three months. In high spirits, he decided to hold a grand banquet for the world.

So he held the graduation banquet at the Millennium Hotel by East Lake, inviting family, friends, and some important business partners.

Qin Shishi was unwilling, but she couldn't go against her father's wishes, so she had no choice but to take the lead role this time.

Today, Qin Shishi was dressed up in her finest attire, with beautiful light makeup on her face, her hair styled, and wearing a luxurious white LV gown.

This dress was specially bought by Qin Sheng for his daughter, costing more than 30,000 yuan. It is also the most expensive dress Qin Shishi has ever worn.

According to Qin Sheng, the clothes can be taken to school, and can be worn again if the school holds any parties or events.

He has always been very generous to his daughter, hoping to broaden her horizons from a young age so that she won't be easily deceived by men with sweet words and small amounts of money later in life.

Qin Sheng and Qin Shishi greeted the guests at the entrance, while Su Wan busied herself in the banquet hall, guiding the guests.

At this time,

Suddenly a commotion broke out ahead, and a man nearing fifty, who looked every bit the leader, strode towards them, surrounded by a large crowd.

Qin Sheng hurriedly went to greet him, calling out, "Brother-in-law."

Su Tiansheng glanced at Qin Sheng with an air of superiority, exchanged a few words with him in a lukewarm tone, then looked around and asked, "Where's Su Wan?"

"She's inside greeting people."

Qin Sheng quickly replied.

Su Tiansheng is his wife Su Wan's older brother and the current head of the Su family.

The Su family operates a real estate conglomerate as a family business, with a market value of nearly one billion yuan, which is already a behemoth in the eyes of ordinary people.

Back then, Qin Sheng was a poor young man who married Su Wan, the daughter of the Su family, and with the help of the Su family's resources, he became a small-time millionaire with an annual income of nearly one million.

Qin Sheng knew that the Su family looked down on him, but he was also grateful to them. After all, without their help, he wouldn't dare say he could have achieved what he has today.

Su Tiansheng didn't really like his brother-in-law, but he didn't hate him either.

His younger sister, Su Wan, was beautiful and had many suitors back then, including several who were well-matched with him.

The old master of the Su family originally planned for Su Wan to choose one of those who were well-matched in terms of social status, but he did not expect that Su Wan would choose such a poor boy.

The old man was furious back then. In a fit of anger, he took back part of Su Wan's inherited shares, leaving her with no money, hoping she would change her mind.

But Su Wan stubbornly chose to stay with Qin Sheng.

After all, she was his daughter, so the old man of the Su family had no choice but to compromise in the end. However, he still did not give her the shares, but he did give Su Wan two houses in high-end residential areas, which was enough to allow the couple to live a peaceful life together.

"How is Dad's health?"

Qin Sheng wore a fawning smile in front of the head of the Su family.

He got used to it, and for the sake of business, he often put on a smiling face for his superiors.

The fact that his superiors had been all smiles at him for the past three months was quite bizarre.

Su Tiansheng looked down on his brother-in-law and said expressionlessly, "The old man is in good health, but he is getting old and won't be attending this graduation banquet."

"Of course, of course," Qin Sheng said repeatedly.

Su Tiansheng then looked at Qin Shishi and smiled, a rare sight for him: "Shishi is really successful, getting into Shanghai Jiaotong University. Is there anything you want? Your uncle will give it to you."

Qin Shishi smiled shyly and said, "Thank you, Uncle, but I don't really want anything."

Qin Shishi never liked her mother's relatives. She felt that they were all arrogant and looked down on her father and always mocked her mother.

"Haha, Shishi, you can take advantage of the summer vacation to get your driver's license. Your uncle will give you a car then."

"By the way, Shishi, you're so pretty, do you have a boyfriend? Your uncle knows some nice guys, around your age, I can introduce them to you."

Su Tiansheng seemed enthusiastic, but Qin Shishi just pursed her lips.

Giving her a car was just a pretense; his real intention was to introduce her to a boyfriend.

This uncle just wanted to introduce some well-off men to the Su family because he thought she was pretty, just like the arranged marriages in ancient times.

Qin Sheng interjected, "Shishi is still young and should focus on her studies."

Su Tiansheng said with slight displeasure, "Shishi is already in college, it's time for her to find a boyfriend."

However, as an elder, he couldn't be too enthusiastic about this matter. Shishi was still young, and it wasn't appropriate for him to urge her to get married or anything like that.

Qin Sheng accompanied Su Tiansheng into the banquet hall, where a commotion immediately erupted as many people crowded around, showering Su Tiansheng with flattery and concern.

They came to this so-called graduation banquet, but in reality, they were there for Su Tiansheng.

"Oh, Shishi, you're actually wearing Louis Vuitton today."

Just as Qin Shishi accompanied them into the banquet hall, an annoying voice suddenly came from beside them.

Upon closer inspection, she recognized her annoying cousin, Xu Tang.

Xu Tang is the daughter of Qin Shishi's aunt, and they have never gotten along.

Qin Shishi knew very well that it was her cousin who was petty and always jealous of her beauty. From childhood to adulthood, whenever they met, her cousin would always make sarcastic remarks to her.

Upon seeing Qin Shishi looking at her, Xu Tang affectedly tucked her sideburns back, revealing the Vacheron Constantin watch and Cartier bracelet on her wrist.

Looking at her clothes, they were all high-end luxury items. The jewelry and clothes she wore together cost at least several hundred thousand yuan. She was clearly a typical rich second-generation.

Xu Tang tugged at Qin Shishi's clothes and clicked her tongue, saying, "It's alright, it's not fake. I was worried you'd wear a fake one in this setting, and I'd be so embarrassed."

Qin Shishi pursed her lips, not wanting to pay her any attention.

Xu Tang wouldn't let her off the hook, and said in a fake tone, "Oh, by the way, I also want to congratulate Shishi on getting into Shanghai Jiao Tong University."

"It's better than that second-tier university you paid money to get into."

Qin Shishi replied in a sarcastic tone.

Xu Tang didn't take it seriously and chuckled, "These days, academic qualifications are worthless; they're only useful for poor people."

"Even if you graduate from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, so what? You'll still end up working for someone else. If you're lucky, you'll work yourself to the bone for a year and only earn a few hundred thousand. That's not even as valuable as the clothes your sister is wearing."

"At your level, what you need are resources and connections. Are you still going to work for your dad? Or are you going to be carrying cement bags under the scorching sun?"

Xu Tang said exaggeratedly.

Qin Sheng worked in engineering, a physically demanding job. His annual income of nearly one million yuan was earned through working from dawn till dusk.

Qin Shishi did not refute, as she knew that her annoying cousin was right.

However, Qin Shishi didn't aspire to be rich, and she had no interest in such comparisons.

Xu Tang fiddled with her hair and said with a smile, "If you can't find a good job after you graduate, Shishi, you can come find me."

"We're sisters after all, I'll arrange an easy job for you."

"Then I thank you, cousin," Qin Shishi said with a forced smile.

If I really worked for her, I'd probably be subjected to her constant manipulation and emotional abuse.

Xu Tang's mother is Qin Shishi's aunt. Back then, she married another wealthy family, making Xu Tang a typical rich second-generation born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

Watching Xu Tang leave in her flamboyant attire, Qin Shishi curled her lip: "Tch, so what if she relies on her family? With your meager abilities, what's she so smug about?"

Therefore, she really didn't like having contact with her mother's relatives.

Xu Tang is just the tip of the iceberg in this family. She is even more aware of how the elders of the Su family ridiculed her father, and even her mother, a member of the Su family, was not well received at home.

But there was no other way. Her father's work did require the Su family's help. He worked so hard so that she could have a good life. Even if he was looked down upon, he could accept it for his daughter.

"Hey, why isn't Uncle here yet?"

Qin Shishi muttered to herself.

Actually, she really didn't want Qin Zijun to come.

The Qin family has no other relatives in Qiantang City. She was worried that if Qin Zijun came over and hung out with this group of people, she would be ridiculed.

She didn't want Qin Zijun to suffer any injustice.

……

"Old He, how dare you stake out here?"

On the first floor of the Millennium Hotel, Peng Shaoxun stared at Mayor He, who was standing ramrod straight beside him, and asked in astonishment.

The Empress is coming to Qiantang City to attend a family banquet; the news had already been announced.

As the director of the Qiantang branch of the Administration Bureau, Peng Shaoxun had no choice but to bite the bullet and come to entertain them.

He was a cultivator, so he was assigned this task.

Peng Shaoxun never expected that Mayor He would be so audacious as to dare to camp out here for the Empress!

Mayor He feigned composure and said, "Director Peng, although you are the director of the Qiantang City National Defense Crisis Management Bureau, you are not part of the system, and very few people know you."

"I came here on my own initiative because I was afraid that someone might be blind and accidentally offend the Empress."

"If we anger the Empress, neither of us can bear the consequences."

They were all people who had read "The Biography of the Empress" and knew that this empress, who ruled the Great Yan Dynasty for ten thousand years, had done many things in her life, such as exterminating three clans and nine clans.

If any mortal were to foolishly provoke the Empress or her husband in the past, the Empress might unleash a massacre on the spot.

However, this time it was just the Empress accompanying her husband to the family banquet, so the higher-ups couldn't make a big fuss on their own. That's why they only sent Peng Shaoxun to receive them.

Mayor He's uninvited visit this time is actually a gamble!

A glint flashed in his eyes. If he made the right bet, it wouldn't just be a matter of him taking a step up in his career.

In this era of spiritual revival, everyone will face unprecedented changes, and we must make plans in advance.

Mayor He asked his secretary, "Has the person arrived?"

"We're almost at the door."

"it is good."

Mayor He immediately straightened his Tang suit.
