Chapter 369: Above the Convention
The next day!
Dong Residence!
At this moment, Dong Family Patriarch felt like an ant on a hot pan. The Jing Family had sent someone over yesterday to notify the Dong Family Patriarch and the elders to attend today’s reward distribution ceremony at the Jing Family!
What is a reward distribution ceremony?
It was to reward those who had sided with Jing Family during the great battle with the Zhao Family a month ago.
But the Dong Family hadn’t been a part of the Jing Family Camp. So, why were they being invited to attend this reward distribution ceremony? What were the intentions behind it?
Since the battle between the Jing and Zhao families had concluded, the Dong Family had secretly been making alliances. Fearing that Jing Family would settle scores eventually, they couldn’t just sit and wait. Therefore, they contacted many families with similar thoughts and formed an alliance with them. Once the Jing Family made a move, they would unite and fight back.
However, what surprised everyone was that Jing Family made no move at all. The past month had been very calm in Donglin City.
Until yesterday, Jing Family suddenly sent someone to deliver a message.
The Dong Family Patriarch and others were very clear that attending this ceremony could spell nothing good for their family. But if they didn’t go, the consequences might be severe!
"What should we do?" Dong Family Patriarch, walked about anxiously.
Time was pressing, and now there wasn’t enough time to discuss a strategy with the other families.
