The pilots of the Five Families deeply understand a truth. The pressure they exerted on Chu Mengyao has reached the desired outcome. Chu Mengyao's side is cold and ignored at the grand banquet, making the Five Families' intention clear to everyone. Would Chu Mengyao not understand?
If they go to invite Chu Mengyao now, and Chu Mengyao shows disrespect, as pilots of the Five Families, none would want to lose face in front of a junior, especially a woman, so nobody is keen to invite Chu Mengyao.
"We aimed to make Chu Mengyao uncomfortable, and now that goal is achieved, but what's next? Make a decision." Chen Tiande seemed unconcerned and indifferent.
"Why not, just send someone to invite her, stating that all five of us are inviting. It is expected that Chu Mengyao, merely a young woman, wouldn't dare act too impudent, right?" Huang Jingwei suggested.
"If it doesn't work, let the juniors do the inviting; at least the formality will be fulfilled." Zheng Guodong said.
"Wu Ge has a big reputation, why not let Wu Ge go for a bit of hard work?" Ma Qianqiu said softly.
This Wu Ge is the uncle referred to by Li Yang and the other young men, respected even by the pilots of the Five Families due to his unique status and as an honored expert cultivated by the Li Family of Human Body Limit.
"No, Wu Ge holds a special place in our hearts, but Chu Mengyao doesn't know Wu Ge's identity, so she may very likely not respect him. The juniors are even less impressive; in front of Chu Mengyao, our Five Families' face is not that grand." Li Chenggui said expressionlessly, "Imagine, if you placed yourself in Chu Mengyao's position, what would you think? What would you do? Chu Mengyao's calm demeanor and patience have surpassed our expectations. If we don't show some courtesy, we'll fall behind."
"Indeed, if I were Chu Mengyao, I wouldn't care about the juniors and Wu Ge. After all, I am a major figure in the Northwest Business Community being disrespected; any clay figure has some temper, let alone Chu Mengyao who holds great power." Huang Jingwei considered from Chu Mengyao's position, "If I were disrespected like this, I would have caused a scene at the banquet, then just find an excuse to leave, not caring whose banquet this is."
"Therefore, Chu Mengyao's ability to remain composed forces us to pay attention; this woman is no ordinary person." Li Yang exclaimed.
"Zheng Guodong furrowed his brows and said: "Standing on par with us, indeed, this woman is no ordinary person and shouldn't be underestimated."
"I imagine Chu Mengyao has already guessed our intention. We intend to pressure her to soften up; she probably wants to explore our stance, which is why she attended this strategic banquet without hesitation." Chen Tiande said solemnly.
"Whether we can win at this strategic banquet depends on our abilities." Huang Jingwei said seriously.
"We are not Xiang Yu, if Chu Mengyao dreams of leaving unscathed, she's dreaming." Ma Qianqiu said with murderous intent.
Each of the five pilots is experienced and shrewd, capable of understanding deeper meanings from small details.
Suddenly, their regard for Chu Mengyao skyrocketed.
Initially looking down on Chu Mengyao as a small girl, now they consider her very seriously and refuse to be arrogant any longer.
"What should we do now?" Chen Tiande compromised, "Otherwise, let's swallow our pride and personally invite Chu Mengyao."
He was ready to lose face, willing to go all out.
"I will go with Brother Chen." Ma Qianqiu immediately stated, eager to run ahead.
"Then let Brother Ma and Brother Chen handle it." Huang Jingwei and Zheng Guodong also expressed their stance, without intending to go.
"I have a suggestion." Li Chenggui said calmly.
"Brother Li, speak your mind, what do you think?" Huang Jingwei said curiously.
"We gave Chu Mengyao a setback, right? Now, let's all five of us go together, give Chu Mengyao ample respect, and let her lower her guard. Wouldn't that be splendid in the eyes of guests? Our Five Families would seem courteous and uninterested in hostility with the Chu Group, only showing importance. Wouldn't that be great?" Li Chenggui said with a smile.
"This idea is good, I'll definitely meet Chu Mengyao, this lady." Huang Jingwei agreed with Li Chenggui's idea.
"Brother Zheng, what do you think?" Ma Qianqiu and the others looked at Zheng Guodong.
"If all of you go, I naturally can't fall behind." Zheng Guodong confirmed, then said with a peculiar tone: "Our Five Families' pilots all going to invite Chu Mengyao, that's giving a lot of face. In the Northwest, who else can cause us all to go extend an invitation?"
After reaching an agreement, the five were ready for action.
"Wu Ge." Li Chenggui looked at the elder and said politely, "Later, we'll need your hard work to personally test Ye Fan's combat skills. We have to know ourselves and the enemy to do well."
"No need to be polite, Master, I know what to do." Called Uncle Wu by outsiders, only the pilots of the Five Families respectfully call the elder Wu Ge.
"Thank you, Wu Ge." Ma Qianqiu and the others respectfully said.
Li Chenggui and the five appeared at the banquet scene, immediately causing a commotion.
"All pilots of the Five Families are present."
"Strange, normally for such a banquet, the pilots of the Five Families wouldn't attend personally; they'd send someone to handle it. How could they personally humble themselves?"
"To have the fortune to see these five men is a once-in-a-lifetime chance."
"Each one among the five is a legendary figure in the Northwest Business Community, indeed radiant and distinguished."
The five pilots walked through the banquet, and people instinctively cleared a path, showing solemn expressions, bowing as a sign of respect to them.
Whether among the Five Families or guests, none showed disrespect towards the five pilots.
Those seated, all stood up, uniformly facing the five.
Despite the crowd, most couldn't see the faces of the five pilots but continued to gaze in their direction.
Conversations ceased, at this moment, belonged solely to the pilots of the Five Families.
"Why have all the elders appeared?" Li Yang and the five young men stood together, puzzled.
The scene erupted, everyone was astonished.
Looking across the vast banquet scene, only four remained seated.
They were Ye Fan, Mengyao, Qiu Wen, and Du Xueqi.
