Chapter 1725: Chapter 1376: Unable to Refuse Generous Hospitality (Part 4)

Su Mo replied naturally.

Hearing Su Mo’s words, Xiao Qijin and the others exchanged glances, their expressions somewhat hesitant, as if they wanted to say something, but ultimately remained silent.

Just then, Su Mo saw a surprisingly familiar figure and waved, calling out with a smile.

"Hi, Lin Zinuo!"

At this moment, Lin Zinuo, dressed in white casual attire with her hair tied up and hands in her pockets, heard someone call her and looked up to see that it was Su Mo.

Her clear eyes showed a rather excited look, and she ran straight towards Su Mo, playfully clutching Su Mo’s neck and complaining with a laugh.

"Su Mo! You promised to come see me when you’re free, but I haven’t seen you for ages."

Su Mo was equally amused yet helpless, not knowing what to say.

At this moment, the waiting Federation officials and councilmen were dumbfounded and hurriedly shouted at Lin Zinuo.

"You can’t do that! You can’t do that!"

"You can’t hold Lord Su Mo like that, what does this look like."

"Let go quickly, Lord Su Mo is now one of the Royal Order of Twelve Knights."

...

Lin Zinuo was taken aback by the crowd’s words and quickly let go, feeling awkward for a moment.

Su Mo also noticed Lin Zinuo’s embarrassment, and he said with a smile, "It’s okay, just a greeting."

Zhang Xun and the others breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that Su Mo would be annoyed.

Lin Zinuo, however, wore a peculiar expression as she quietly asked Su Mo.

"Is being one of the Royal Order of Twelve Knights a high status?"

Actually, Lin Zinuo wanted to quip, "Are they really that fawning and cautious?" But she didn’t dare say that, as most of the people here had higher status and seniority than her.

Su Mo coughed and replied quietly.

"You didn’t know?"

"I’ve been in the Jump Fortress, almost busy to death. How do I have time to pay attention to that? But when you’re fighting, I find it interesting to watch. I even bet my salary on you, good thing you won, or I’d be stuck eating plain bread."

Lin Zinuo winked at Su Mo, growing more excited as she spoke, not treating Su Mo as a big shot at all.

Su Mo didn’t know how to retort Lin Zinuo.

"Zinuo!"

Just then, Qian Chengxue walked over with Wang Qing and a group of sisters. She greeted Lin Zinuo cheerfully.

Seeing Qian Chengxue coming over, Lin Zinuo happily said to Su Mo.

"Your wife is here." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Before Su Mo could say anything, Lin Zinuo went to meet Qian Chengxue, joyfully giving her a hug.

"Sister Xue, it’s been a long time."

"It’s been so many years, you’ve become more beautiful and your aura is even more refined."

Qian Chengxue chatted happily with Lin Zinuo.

"Not too bad."

Lin Zinuo replied with a smile.

Su Mo then approached Qian Chengxue and asked with concern, "Is everything handled?"

"Mostly taken care of."

Qian Chengxue replied with a smile.

"Don’t work too hard."

Su Mo nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

At this moment, Wang Qing, standing next to Qian Chengxue, gazed at Su Mo with a hint of admiration in her eyes.

Once upon a time, she also fantasized about finding a handsome, sunny, powerful, yet caring perfect man.

However, it ultimately turned out to be an illusion, ending in a tragic result.

"No, it’s not hard, just a little matter."

Qian Chengxue replied with a smile.

"That’s Lord Su Mo, so handsome."

At this time, a voice of praise sounded, and a strikingly beautiful, well-dressed woman admiringly looked at Su Mo.

"Really handsome."

Many young ladies attending the banquet gathered around.

Su Mo felt a bit awkward and said to Qian Chengxue.

"Qian Chengxue, you all go inside first."

Qian Chengxue nodded and then said to Qinger.

"Qinger, let’s go."

But Wang Qing remained motionless, still staring at Su Mo.

Qian Chengxue called out in confusion, "Qinger?"

Wang Qing suddenly came to her senses, blushing slightly and apologizing, "Sorry, I was a bit lost in thought."

"No problem, let’s head in first."

Qian Chengxue didn’t pay much attention to it.

Sun Li watched this scene, seemingly deep in thought.
