Closer to Revealing My True Self-Chapter 754 - 485 What to Do When You Encounter a Snake Spirit_3

"Dai Fangxun?" Feng Chi looked at the newcomer.

Feng Chi’s social circle was much larger than Feng Yi’s, and he knew that Dai Fangxun’s family had some background, a solid heritage.

It was just that, during the Mingyao Auction, Dai Fangxun seemed rather disinterested and inactive.

Usually, there wasn’t much interaction between the two sides. Originally, Feng Chi and Feng Yi planned to exchange pleasantries and leave, but to their surprise, Dai Fangxun was quite enthusiastic today, especially towards Feng Yi:

"It’s rare to run into both of you, don’t rush off, how about we have a couple more drinks together?"

"No thanks, some other time, A’chi needs to go to class, and I have work to deal with," Feng Yi said.

Dai Fangxun did not insist.

"Oh, right!"

Dai Fangxun asked the others with him to go ahead inside the club, while he stayed behind and extended an invitation to Feng Yi and Feng Chi:

"The day after tomorrow is my grandmother’s 80th birthday. We’re having a banquet at the resort villa in the suburbs. Many friends will be attending. My grandmother has asked us young people to invite some friends to have fun together.

"The old lady feels that at her age, she has no other demands; she just wants everyone to be happy—whether old or young, from any generation—as long as everyone is joyful and can gather and laugh together. The place is large; if you’re free, why don’t you come and have some fun?"

Dai Fangxun gave them the address.

It was a bit away from the city area, a rather famous resort villa.

"There are several courtyards there; we young people will have our own space to enjoy ourselves."

Dai Fangxun looked at Feng Yi: "My grandmother is especially fond of you; she loves watching you catch snakes!"

Feng Chi subtly gestured to Feng Yi.

Dai Fangxun’s grandmother had a good reputation, not the kind with a high level of animosity like Old Man Feng. It would be good to go, but whether to accept the invitation was up to Feng Yi to decide.

Feng Yi accepted the invitation, agreeing to attend and celebrate the old lady’s birthday the day after tomorrow.

"I’ll go to soak up some of the birthday blessings," Feng Yi said.

As for Feng Chi, he expressed regret. He liked lively occasions and wanted to go, but he had classes to attend. "Survivor," that program, was a rare good opportunity, and the participants were highly competitive. Weighing the pros and cons, Feng Chi was reluctant to ask for leave and be away at this time. He hadn’t taken time off even for his grandfather’s firm celebration.

Dai Fangxun was pleased. He mainly wanted to invite Feng Yi; Feng Chi was just a bonus.

However, the formal invitations had been sent out early, and he needed to go back and produce a new one, which he didn’t have on hand.

"Where do you stay in Jing City? Tomorrow I’ll have someone bring the invitation over to you," Dai Fangxun said.

Feng Yi gave his current address: "I have a meeting to attend tomorrow; I might not be there, but someone will be at the place."

Dai Fangxun’s face showed no change as he noted the address. After parting with Feng Yi and Feng Chi, and turning to leave, his face revealed deep thought.

If he wasn’t mistaken, the address Feng Yi had given was that of a siheyuan currently under the absolute control of the couple from the Ancestral Factory.

It seemed the rumors were true; Feng Yi really did have a good relationship with the heads of the Ancestral Factory.

Meanwhile, Jia drove over to pick up the two of them.

Back at the siheyuan, only the two brothers were in the room.

Feng Chi, sipping tea, said, "I’ve heard—just heard, mind you—that there were rumors Dai Fangxun and those with him today got the accompanying slots to attend ’that event.’ It’s probably the elders taking them to gain some experience.

"They’ve also formed a private group, one without inclusivity; those who didn’t get a slot aren’t eligible to join their chat. This time, they’re probably trying to draw you in."

Feng Chi wasn’t being sarcastic; he was simply envious.

"That event" was a reference to the "Butterfly Project’s" first global live demonstration for important guests.

Some information is currently only circulating within certain circles and isn’t made public.

What to say in which circle, the elders had already cautioned them, so there are some common topics that are not suitable to speak of in front of others.

This was also the reason why Dai Fangxun and his group excluded others from their chat.

"There’s a first time for everything; you should perform well on the show, maybe you’ll be in the next event," Feng Yi consoled.

"That’s what I thought too!"

Feng Chi’s spirits lifted again.

"Brother, you must watch closely when you’re there, and tell me all about it after you return!"

Feng Yi: "... Yeah."

How should I put it? Actually, I’ve already seen it, even had it all to myself.
