938 We Indeed Have the Abilities and Connections. Why Would It Be Considered As Blowing One’s Own Trumpet?
Even though the banquet the King organized was for Lu Jingye and the group, the dignitaries still had to go and serve as a company.
Ever since Zi Yi got in the car, she had been using her tablet.
“Yiyi, what are you looking at? You’ve been on the tablet for so long.”
“The flow of the International Racing Competition and what I would need to prepare when the time comes.”
!!“Hmm? The International Racing Competition is about to start soon?”
“Yes. By the time we return home, the competition will be starting.”
Qin Ze had paid special attention to Zi Yi’s racing club before. At the thought of the previous time Zi Yi told him to check the bets she opened, his eyes lit up. “Zi Yi, will you take part in the competition?”
Zi Yi glanced at him and said, “I won’t.”
As the boss, she only had to wait for the money to come in.
Qin Ze was a little disappointed. “If you were to take part, the first place would surely be yours. We’ll then open a betting pool and it’ll be a sure-win bet!”
“Everyone knows that I will win. Do you think they will place bets on other racers when the time comes?”
What Zi Yi said made so much sense.
In fact, if Zi Yi was not going to participate, Qin Ze felt that he had to seriously consider who to place his bets on when the betting pool opened.
Dou Zerui also knew of this competition. He said, “Even if Yiyi isn’t attending, the competition will surely be very exciting… By the way, when is your racing club going to start selling tickets? You must leave a few tickets for me when the time comes.”
“It’ll be on sale on the [Futuristic Racing Club]’s official website in a few days. How many tickets do you need? I’ll have the manager robot leave a few for you.”
When Qin Ze heard this, he asked, “Zi Yi, leave a few tickets for me too?”
“Ok.”
Zi Yi was not stingy in this aspect at all. “You can both purchase them on the official website. I’ve given you the rights and you just have to use your identification cards for verification.”
“Ok.”
There was no need to mention how delighted Dou Zerui and Qin Ze were.
Both of them started chatting on the topic of racing.
Zi Yi continued swiping on her tablet. She required a few materials these days and so, she entered the black market to take a look.
After checking for some time, she pointed at one of the reward orders and showed it to Lu Jingye. “Ah Jing, look. The leader of the mafia in Country Y has contracted a serious disease. They are even issuing a reward to search for a doctor. Aren’t they afraid that his enemies would come knocking?”
Lu Jingye took a look and said, “He posted it anonymously and other people might not necessarily be able to find where they are… another possibility is that the leader’s illness has reached a point where no one could cure him.”
“It’s also possible that he would not dare to enter those regular hospitals or seek famous doctors in the public eye for treatment, right?”
“That’s not the case. Even though the mafia in Country Y is not as welcomed in the country, the standards of their arsenal of doctors are even better than those famous doctors.”
Zi Yi nodded her head and continued looking at the post. “Unfortunately, he didn’t mention the symptoms. It’s such a hefty reward and even I am also considering whether I want to take it or not.”
Lu Jingye lightly chuckled and said, “If you were to take it up, we would have to delay our return.”
Zi Yi put the tablet to one side. “In that case, I definitely won’t take it.”
Lu Jingye’s laughter was even louder than before.
The other three could not help but look in his direction.
When Lu Jingye stopped smiling, he returned to his usual demeanor.
Just then, Qin Ze suddenly said with a smile, “I finally know the reason why my Dad refuses to admit that I’m his son. I feel that it must be because he regards Lu Jingye as his ideal son, but I don’t meet those standards. Therefore, he doesn’t want to acknowledge my existence.”
Zi Yi glanced at him. “Do you dare to say that in front of Mr. Qin?”
Qin Ze scoffed. “I don’t. Not only will my Dad skin me alive, but my Mom would also do the same too. In my family, my Mom has the most authority.”
“Hahahaha…”
His comment made several people laugh out loud.
When Zi Yi’s car reached the outside of the palace gates, they saw the Count who enthusiastically hugged everyone he saw at the door. Dou Zerui said with a smile, “The Count seems really happy. It must be because our Xiangling is about to marry into his family.”
Qin Ze agreed with him. “Xiangling has such a powerful maiden family. The Count would definitely be overjoyed at this.”
“If that’s the case, I can be at ease.”
Dou Xiangling slightly blushed at their conversation. She nudged Dou Zerui and said, “Brother, who would blow one’s own trumpet like you?”
“But I’m just stating a fact. Cousin, am I right?”
Zi Yi nodded her head. “We indeed have the abilities and connections. Why would it be considered as blowing one’s own trumpet?”
Dou Xiangling was unexpectedly speechless.
When the car stopped, Edward and Justin walked over in large strides.
When everyone alighted, Edward took the lead to welcome them. “Dear distinguished guests, welcome to the palace.”
“Thank you. It’s our pleasure to be able to come here.”
This type of socializing would surely be taken care of by Lu Jingye.
Thus, both of them started exchanging pleasantries.
Justin, who had been standing by the side and was unable to get a word in, started to get anxious. He then spoke to Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling. “The two ladies are really beautiful tonight. It just so happens that our sister is around the same age as the two ladies. You all can have a chat together then.”
Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling nodded their heads.
At this moment, Justin deliberately reminded Edward, who wished that he could remain standing there and chatting with Lu Jingye. “Royal Father is still waiting for the distinguished guests in the living room. Brother, we should go in.”
“Yes, yes, Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, and the other guests, please.”
Everyone headed inside together.
The Count and Ian were currently waiting for them. At the sight of their arrival, the Count revealed a brilliant smile and greeted them before everyone went inside.
The banquet hall inside the palace was simply magnificent. There were murals that showed off Country M’s characteristics, various gold-plated columns, beautiful-sounding music, and performances.
The Count seemed really happy today. Zi Yi and the others could constantly see him hugging guests and talking to others about Ian and Dou Xiangling’s marriage.
Ian was a little unaccustomed to his behavior and he said to Dou Xiangling, “This is the first time I’ve seen my Father so happy and enthusiastic.”
Dou Xiangling pursed her lips and revealed a smile. “Isn’t this good? It proves that he is sincere in his blessing for us.”
Ian nodded his head. “It’s good. This was my childhood dream.”
“Your childhood?”
“Mhmm. When I was a child, I always hoped to obtain my Father’s love so that I could escape from my Mother’s cold gaze.”
Dou Xiangling tried imaging the situation and she could more or less guess the treatment he received when he was younger. She could not help herself but hold his hand.
All of a sudden, she thought of something. “Ian, was your previous allergy something you were born with or did it occur later?”
“It occurred when I was a child,” Ian said with a calm voice. “When I was a child, there was one time when the family went out to play. When I went to bed at night, there were tons of disgusting bugs inside my covers. From then on, whenever I stay outside, I would get an allergy as long as the covers and mattress weren’t my own.”
