In response to this, Chen Hui remained very calm, with no trace of change on his face.

"This trash actually dares to come to my banquet, hehe, could it be that he thinks Li Si will change her mind?" In the crowd, a well-dressed young man, exuding an aura of nobility, was coldly watching Chen Hui walk into the private room. He held a delicate aluminum wine glass, looking quite gentlemanly, but his eyes, filled with gloom, ruined his entire demeanor.

This young man was none other than the main character of this banquet, Jiang Linjun.

Beside Jiang Linjun stood a gentle and outstanding young girl. She was lightly made up, with a pair of lively big eyes that were extremely captivating.

This girl was none other than Li Si, for whom Chen Hui had risked his life to enter the No Return Forest, loving her to the extreme.

Li Si looked at Chen Hui, her delicate brows slightly furrowed, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.

"Chen Hui, welcome to my banquet!" Jiang Linjun slowly walked out from the crowd, coming to Chen Hui's side, a faint smile on the corner of his lips. "May I ask, are you here to bless Si'er and me?"

"Exactly!"

"Then please come inside. There's plenty of wine here, and you can drink to your heart's content later."

"No, I didn't come here to give you face. I just came to ask Li Si a question." Chen Hui shook his head slightly, then turned his gaze to Li Si.

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the people in the private room became peculiar, especially when they turned their eyes to Li Si, their strange expressions became even more obvious.

They didn't expect that Chen Hui had come to the banquet just to ask Li Si a question. What kind of question could he possibly ask in such a setting?

After hearing Chen Hui's words, Jiang Linjun's face turned completely dark. He didn't say anything but turned his gaze to Li Si.

Li Si's brows furrowed even tighter, but she still took a light step, walking to Jiang Linjun's side, and asked Chen Hui with a cold look, "What question do you want to ask me? Ask it now."

Chen Hui nodded slightly and, under everyone's watchful eyes, asked calmly, "I wonder if you can tell me, what exactly did I like about you in the past?"

"Hmm? What is Chen Hui trying to do? What does his question mean?"

"How can you not know what it means? It means he has now realized that he shouldn't have liked Li Si in the past."

"It does seem to be the case. Chen Hui is really too arrogant. Even if he no longer likes Li Si, he doesn't have to say it in front of Jiang Linjun."

"Exactly, now he has offended Jiang Linjun face-to-face. Let's see how Jiang Linjun will teach him a lesson."

Sure enough, as the crowd began to murmur, Jiang Linjun's handsome face turned completely dark.

However, even so, Jiang Linjun still didn't speak but looked at Li Si.

However, upon hearing Chen Hui's question, Li Si was momentarily stunned and couldn't respond immediately.

"Since you don't know the answer, I'll consider it as if I never asked. Maybe I had a problem with my head back then." Facing Li Si, Chen Hui's tone remained calm, and after saying this, his gaze towards Li Si became completely estranged.

"Brother, you're absolutely right. This woman isn't worth your affection..." Chen Yan, standing beside him, was startled and quickly stepped forward, preparing to pull Chen Hui away, but she verbally agreed with her brother.

"Ridiculous!"

However, as soon as Chen Yan spoke, Jiang Linjun's angry shout echoed.

Jiang Linjun took a step forward, pointing directly at Chen Hui: "Trash, how dare you be so insolent. Your liking Si'er in the past shows that your taste wasn't bad, but now you say it was because of a problem with your head. I think you have a problem with your head now, daring to look down on me, Jiang Linjun. Hmph, if you don't kneel down and apologize, you will have no place to stand in Qi Wang City in the future!"

"Is that so? Today, I just wanted to resolve the entanglements between Li Si and me, speaking the truth. Why should I apologize?" Chen Hui's tone was calm, completely unaffected by Jiang Linjun's intimidating presence.

Jiang Linjun snorted coldly: "Boy, do you think you're right just because you say so? Who do you think you are, the young master of the Chen family? Hmph, your Chen family is just a newly risen noble. Of course, now the Chen family is nothing. If it weren't for you and Chen Yan, there would be no so-called Chen family in Qi Wang City."

Bare-faced insult!

Saying this in front of everyone, Jiang Linjun clearly didn't take Chen Hui seriously. In this world, strength is paramount, and since Jiang Linjun's strength surpasses Chen Hui's, he has the right to say this.

Even the gentle Chen Yan, upon hearing this, had a darkened face and shouted loudly, "Young Master Jiang, please watch your words..."

"Little sister, ignore him! Haha, Jiang Linjun, even if the Chen family is the worst in Qi Wang City, it's not something a ignorant descendant of the Jiang family can talk about. Don't think that just because you come from a noble family, everyone is a beggar. People like you, if not for your noble family status, would probably be worse than beggars."
