“Shopkeeper, who’s in that private room?” Lady Bilian suppressed her fury, her tone turning surprisingly calm.
This was her strength.
She would never offend anyone without knowing their background, especially those she couldn’t afford to deal with. Moreover, she was particularly adept at building relationships with various young elites.
The shopkeeper immediately summoned the boy responsible for the said room. Once he had informed him, he turned to Lady Bilian and said, “My Lady, this room was reserved by Wang Shouxin of the Wang family from Longzuo—a well-established reputable family with Celestial Beings. Wang Shouxin is also among the younger generation of outstanding disciples in the Purple Abode Academy. It is rumored that he has the potential to become a core disciple.”
“Wang Shouxin must be hosting an honorable guest since he has apparently ordered very expensive dishes.”
A prominent family of Celestial Beings? Potential for being a core disciple? Hosting an honorable guest?
Lady Bilian’s eyes glowed faintly. She glanced at Chi Junjie beside her and asked, “Young Master Chi, do you know Wang Shouxin?”
As soon as he heard the name Wang Shouxin, Chi Junjie’s face hardened slightly, and he responded with subtle hostility, “Wang Shouxin and I are under the tutelage of Master Xuanyao. We are of similar age and talents. However, I heard he hails from a prominent family of Celestial Beings and gets more resources from his family, which gives him a slight edge over me in strength.”
