"It is said that Kong Juncheng is backed by a great Jiangnan clan. They have a hundred years of heritage, and their roots are very deep. Nobody dares to offend them in Yangzhou, which is comparable to the Fan family's status in Fujian Province." 'I didn't expect him to be Chu Yi Rong's father? '

Shen Longfei, who was standing at the side, changed his expression slightly. The look in his eyes slightly changed as he looked at Chu Yi Rong.

In his eyes, Chu YiRong was only a flower vase that came from a merchant's family. With her beautiful appearance, she barely managed to enter the upper class of the prefecture city. She was not even comparable to a woman like Ye Yanran, whose beauty matched her family's.

But now that Kong Juncheng had appeared, it was as if the world had turned upside down for her. She had changed from the daughter of an ordinary merchant to the daughter of the leader of the martial arts world, who now dominated the three prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River.

He believed that if this news got out, not only the people in the Prefecture Country, even in the entire Fujian Province, who dared to provoke her could be counted on one hand. The number of people chasing after her would also increase exponentially.

That was because even Shen Longfei, as the son of the County City's Deputy Protector, had the intention of giving up on pursuing Chu Yanran after finding out that she was actually Kong Juncheng's daughter.

At this time, Kong Juncheng was about to burst into tears. After coaxing the tears into a smile, he walked into the courtyard with a smile on his face to the many guests who had come for Chu Yiran's birthday.

"Everyone present, are all Rong'er's good friends, right? Let me introduce myself. I am Kong Juncheng from Lishui County of Yangzhou. Rong'er still needs to thank you all for your care and company these past few years. "

Upon hearing Kong Juncheng reveal his identity, everyone hurriedly stood up.

Suddenly, Kong Juncheng's gaze fell upon Duan Feng who was behind his mother, and he smiled as he said: "Feng, General Duan, have you been well recently?"

"Thank you for your concern, Uncle Kong. My father's health is strong and healthy, but he has never had the chance to serve his country. He's headed to the border for war." Duan Feng respectfully replied. From the looks of it, he knew Kong Juncheng's identity.

"Martial artists should sharpen their abilities in the battlefield, but they should be safe in the Prefecture Country. It is indeed a great grievance for General Duan." Kong Juncheng nodded in agreement.

At this time, he looked around and suddenly asked, "Who is Ye Qing?"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Their gazes simultaneously looked at Ye Qing, who was sitting in a corner. Their eyes were more or less filled with a sense of schadenfreude.

Everyone could hear the conversation between Kong Juncheng and Duan Feng. Kong Juncheng was quite satisfied with Duan Feng.

And after he finished talking to Duan Feng, he asked who Ye Qing was. This was obviously to find trouble with people who were suddenly famous in the Prefecture Country and caused his daughter to pay attention to him.

Ye Qing's expression did not change as he slowly stood up and calmly nodded at Kong Juncheng, "I am."

When the crowd saw how Ye Qing was neither servile nor overbearing, and how he treated Kong Juncheng like an ordinary person without a care in the world, they couldn't help but inwardly suck in a breath of cold air.

From the looks of it, they were going to start a fight?

Seeing that, Chu Yi Rong's expression couldn't help but change and she hurriedly pulled on Kong Juncheng's arm in a spoiled manner, "Father, why did you come here to find trouble with Brother Ye Qing? He's very nice. "

"I didn't look for trouble with him. I just heard his name too many times during my time in Fujian Province. Even his ears had calluses." Kong Juncheng lovingly patted his daughter's head and looked at Ye Qing with a smile that was not a smile.

After that, he turned his head towards the crowd and said, "Alright, everyone, don't stop just because of my arrival. Today is Rong'er's birthday!"
