Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1571: Chapter 1331 Soruns is here

”Mr. Hawk!” Soruns’ assistant Li Si looked at old Hawk in surprise, then quickly glanced behind him.

Old Hawk is here, so Mr. Soruns must have arrived too. After all, they’re riding in the same car.

Not being at the door to greet them, is this considered a dereliction of duty?

Li Si did not see Mr. Soruns; behind old Hawk were just his own entourage.

”Don’t worry, Li Si. Mr. Soruns went back to the residence to get something and will be here shortly. You can still make it in time if you wait at the door now.” Old Hawk patted Li Si on the shoulder with a smile, ”There’s no more need for you here.”

Old Hawk’s tone was polite enough, but there was no doubt he was ordering Li Si.

This went beyond what a guest should say or do.

But Li Si knew that old Hawk was always like this, and Mr. Soruns did not mind his behavior.

Andrew’s rudeness earlier also showed he had learned well from old Hawk.

Li Si weighed the situation in his mind.

It’s unwise to offend old Hawk, and Mr. Soruns will be here soon. He should go to the building’s entrance, not stay here.

Li Si glanced at Bai Xiaosheng.

No matter how remarkable that young man’s identity might be, he is, after all, just a guest. As a guest, the conflict between him and Andrew and Miss Milos is just a guest-to-guest disagreement—irrelevant to the host or himself.

Thinking this, Li Si withdrew his gaze, lowered his voice, and whispered to old Hawk, ”Mr. Hawk, that young man... His identity is rather special. Although he offended Young Master Andrew and Miss Milos, I believe he didn’t mean to. Please, forgive him as much as possible.”

After speaking, Li Si respectfully nodded to old Hawk and left.

Li Si did not say much more, nor waited for old Hawk to question him about Bai Xiaosheng’s true identity.

Because, he himself did not know.

Although Bai Xiaosheng had the most prestigious invitation, he was young and his bearing was evident. Li Si thought this person might be related to today’s prominent guest—the Asian VIP.

Li Si did not believe Bai Xiaosheng was the VIP.

After all, as Soruns’ assistant, Li Si did not handle business matters. Naturally, he didn’t know much high-level information. Soruns intended to introduce Bai Xiaosheng with fanfare to everyone later and had not disclosed this to anyone in advance, not even to old Hawk or his primary assistant.

Old Hawk paid no mind to Li Si’s warning.

Special identity? More special than his?

He is a close friend of Soruns!

Many influential figures from great families treat him courteously!

...

From Li Si’s appearance to old Hawk’s arrival and their brief, whispered conversation, then Li Si leaving.

All eyes were on them.

After Li Si left, Andrew stepped out from the crowd to greet his father, displaying the Hawk Family’s norms.

”Mr. Hawk.”

”Mr. Hawk!”

The young guests surrounding Andrew immediately beamed with smiles, each showing their own genteel side and competing to greet old Hawk.

They had all witnessed how old Hawk casually dismissed Li Si earlier and held him in great awe.

Old Hawk seemed like half a host at the gathering, a fact that was enough to make those interested in befriending the Hawk Family even more eager.

Old Hawk smiled, nodded at these young people, and looked up at a few directions to greet other esteemed guests politely.

Once these minor matters were handled, he intended to engage with the VIPs.

Those worth old Hawk’s attention actually had backgrounds surpassing the Hawk Family, but with Soruns as this invisible weight, old Hawk could converse with them.

Naturally, he would not waste this opportunity.

In fact, every time the Hawk Family attended a gathering, they garnered great rewards.

This was something even Soruns knew and permitted.

Old Hawk had helped Soruns greatly in the past, and Soruns considered this as repayment.

While old Hawk was surrounded by lively chatter, Milos, on the other hand, remained still and did not approach.

Milos felt that if she went over now, she’d seem like a little girl aggrieved outside, coming home with reinforcements, which was somewhat embarrassing.

Luckily, her father was indulgent to both her and her brother and would not mind such trivial matters.

Lin Weiwei wanted to go over, but Milos adamantly held her back.

Milos thought that Bai Xiaosheng facing off against her father and brother would definitely be unlucky.

Lin Weiwei had helped her earlier, seemed nice enough, and didn’t need to be dragged into trouble with that man.

Lin Weiwei saw Milos’ intent and found her ”kindness” amusing.

Lin Weiwei glanced at Bai Xiaosheng on the other side.

She wasn’t worried at all that Bai Xiaosheng would suffer!

At this moment, Bai Xiaosheng still sat casually.

He understood old Hawk’s identity from people’s discussions.

So what!

In terms of prestige, old Hawk and the Hawk Family truly couldn’t compare with him.

Moreover, old Hawk’s earlier remarks clearly endorsed his son’s actions, suggesting the use of unscrupulous means to threaten others.

Bai Xiaosheng’s impression of him plummeted.

If it weren’t for those comments, perhaps considering old Hawk’s age, Bai Xiaosheng might have risen and offered a token of respect.
