Don't Interrupt My Immortal Cultivation
Chapter 114
The last middle-aged man gave him a cold glance and said, "Little Lin, the Governor has high hopes for you. You should know how many things he has covered for you, how many criticisms he has blocked for you."
"Because of you, there are some disagreements within us. You should understand that such favor is hard to come by, so take care of yourself."
After speaking, he led a group of officials of all ranks into the elevator. As they passed by Lin Wen, they either ignored him, sneered at him, or glared at him maliciously. There was no friendly person.

A voice came from the earpiece: "That should be the Director of the State Government, Nopes. He is steady and calm, the best choice to hold the rear. He was even brought out this time, Sheng Huaixuan must attach great importance to this meeting."
Lin Wen: "What should I do now?"
Earpiece: "Go down, walk around in the hall, and quietly tell me the appearance of anyone you meet. Chat with them casually, please, be polite!"
The last two words were almost gritted out.
"Okay."
Lin Wen took another elevator.
The moment the door closed, the largest elevator in the middle opened.
Lin Wen returned to the first floor and found that there were indeed many people here. Behind the hall was an even larger banquet hall, and the aroma of countless foods wafted out.
Each attendant there was dressed in elegant formal wear, countless officials were moving freely inside, talking and laughing, casually taking food and fine wine from the table. Accompanied by melodious music, many people were dancing, and there were bursts of applause.
Lin Wen walked in, an extraordinarily dressed attendant quickly confirmed his identity, bowed and handed him a nameplate, a pair of gloves, and a napkin.
"Sheriff Lin, welcome, this way please."
A beautiful maid gently helped him put on the nameplate, tied the napkin, put on the gloves, and whispered: "Sheriff Lin, do you need any other services?"
Her watery eyes stared straight at Lin Wen, as if filled with hope and longing. Her small nose and rosy lips were angled perfectly towards him, perfectly displaying their owner's cuteness without obstructing his view.
"No need." Lin Wen said briefly, casually picked up a tray from the dining cart, and walked into the crowd of the banquet.
The maid was slightly disappointed, but still politely bowed: "Enjoy yourself, call me anytime if you need anything."
"A skinny monkey."
"A gorilla."
"A pig."
Lin Wen seriously described the appearances of the people he saw.
The earpiece couldn't stand it anymore: "Can you speak properly? Just listening to you, I thought I was in a zoo!"
Lin Wen scratched the back of his head, looking around, the hall was full of weird-looking officials. Ugly and old, pot-bellied fellows accounted for more than seventy percent, followed by some skinny and sleazy old men, and middle-aged men who were not talkative.
Young men with upright figures like him were rare.
There were also many noble ladies and rich daughters at this banquet, but they were not officials. Some were relatives of officials, some were nobles or rich people.
This kind of banquet is the best social occasion, and the Thirteen States Joint Meeting is the largest joint meeting.
For officials, of course, they would not miss this excellent opportunity to expand their network, and the wealthy people with greater needs would not miss it either.
The entrance ticket for the banquet has exceeded ten million, but it still can't stop their enthusiasm. Even many wealthy people from other states are eager to squeeze in.
For them, this is nothing short of a carnival.
Here, there are countless guys with ulterior motives. You know, what is easier, more convenient, and faster to develop than the relationship between men and women?
Anyone who has read through the history of the empire knows that since the birth of civilization, assassins and prostitutes have been the oldest professions in human society, and marriage alliances are the oldest political means.
Of course, marriage alliances are mostly fantasies, and it's not easy to climb high branches. Matching family backgrounds and interests are the cornerstone of political marriages.
Then, taking a step back to become a lover is completely acceptable. Taking another step back, even a one-night stand can be considered as breaking the ice in the relationship.
For the noble daughters, sleeping with an old man is nowhere near as good as sleeping with a handsome prince.
That is simply the ultimate dream mixed with all the romantic dreams of a girl.
If they can win his heart with one move, that would be the perfect ending to the ultimate dream.
If it's just a fleeting marriage, it's also a pink dream that can be hidden in the deepest part of memory.
For the noble ladies, their eyes are shining. This can't be called sending meat, it should be called eating meat.
This banquet is held specifically for officials. Attendants are not allowed in. Only officials above the county level or their direct relatives can enter. Anyone else needs a hefty ticket to enter.
People who enter will have nameplates to distinguish their identities.
Lin Wen was wearing a seven-flower badge that represented a county-level official, proving that he was not a relative of an official, but an official himself. Such a young county-level official was extremely rare, and he was bound to have a promising future.
His figure moving through the banquet was like the sun, overshadowing everything else and firmly attracting the gaze of all the noble ladies who saw him.
As a result, Lin Wen quickly found himself in a great predicament. No matter where he went or what he was doing, he would always "coincidentally" encounter various beauties, as if he was cursed with bad luck.
These people would either twist their ankles or fall down in front of him, spill water or drop cakes, and even buttons could fly onto Lin Wen's face. If he hadn't activated the "Agility of the Spirit Cat" to dodge these mishaps with perfect movements, he would have been forced to leave the scene to change his clothes.
Finally, he managed to reach the dance floor in the center. In an instant, Lin Wen felt as if he had walked into a hunting ground. Countless feline eyes turned towards him, ready to pounce at any moment, making even him, who was protected by immortal magic, feel a chill down his spine.
"What's wrong with this?" Lin Wen couldn't help but ask his earpiece.
Earpiece: "Don't you like it? All the girls in the field are crazy for you."
Lin Wen said unhappily, "Are they worthy?"
These misfits, who clearly had no talent at all, would probably not even pass the Qi Refining stage if they went to the world of cultivation. How could they be qualified to touch the body of a True Immortal?
The voice in the earpiece sounded a bit cheerful for some reason: "Find a servant, let him take you to the rest room, take off your badge, there should be standard banquet formal wear inside, change into one."
Following her advice, Lin Wen was quickly led into a single-person rest room by a messenger.
When he came out again, the harassment had indeed decreased a lot. Although the frequency was still high, it was at least within a tolerable range.
"You really know your stuff." Lin Wen praised.
There was no response from the earpiece.
There were fewer people near the rest room. This was a clearing area, private places were on the second floor at the back. Lin Wen saw many groups of people going up the stairs, besides ordinary men holding beautiful girls, there were also noble ladies holding pretty boys, beautiful girls holding noble ladies, young boys holding middle-aged greasy men, and so on.
Lin Wen didn't care, he was about to return to the banquet, when the side effect of removing his badge came.
A fat woman who weighed at least 200 kilograms shuffled over and laughed, "Young man, come upstairs with your sister."
Lin Wen ignored her. The fat woman raised her hand, which was wider and fatter than a pig's belly, and arrogantly showed off the huge gem on her finger, "Young man, do you know who I am? I am the elder sister of Wang Bo'an, the governor of Zhongzhou. If you serve me well, I can at least guarantee you a section chief position in the governor's mansion."
Lin Wen felt nauseous, but he couldn't kill her because her aura was only a little dark. He could only run away.
But the fat woman actually caught up with him, "Young man, don't waste your youth. I can at least save you twenty years of struggle!"
Lin Wen quickly accelerated, fully activating the agility brought by the "Agility of the Spirit Cat". His figure shuttled through the crowd like a fish, and he finally managed to shake her off and arrived at a quiet corner.
