Rebirth of the Urban Immortal Cultivator

CHAPTER 133

The Chen family estate is located at the outskirts of Jin City, and it was called the Chen's Village.

Although it was labeled as a village, it had been modernized a long time ago. Nowadays every family lived in bungalows or two-story houses with beautiful lawns and white picket fences, making it look like a small community of the developed world. Most of the young people living in this village work at The Chens Group.

Every year after the Spring Festival, all branches of the Chen family would gather here to reflect on last year's work and to plan next years tasks. Nonetheless, the gathering was also a cesspool for things from braggings to conceit and anything in between.

Inside the main courtyard, a table full of food was set up before the group arrived.

"Is that Chen Xiao?"

Chen Ning and Chen An had been the center of everyone's attention until a ghostly looking young man walked into the courtyard, instantly stealing the attention of all the young men and women.

His appearance even caught the attention of many adults who sat inside the meeting hall.

"Chen Xiao of the Jin City! He was the most outstanding young member of the Chen family."

Many people exclaimed at his arrival. Even Chen Fan started to furrow his brows in curiosity.

The Chen family is not an extremely prolific family in Jin City and it never produced anyone super-rich. However, Chen Xiao was the exception. He was born from an offshoot of the main branches of the Chen family, and therefore lacked the proper support of the clan. However, what he lacked in support, he made up for it in courageousness. In the end, his ability was noticed by the richest man in Jiang Nan province: Tang Yuanqin and the latter became his benefactor. From then on, the young man became one of the most influential people in Jin City.

He ran a construction company and owned over hundreds of millions of assets. Even Chen An paled in comparison with him.

Lo and behold, Chen Xiao walked past the teenagers, and into the meeting hall where the important members of the clans were at. He picked a seat that was closer to the head of the table than Chen An was and sat down.

Based on the Chen Family clan's rules, only the elder generations or those who had proved themselves worthy could have a seat in the main hall and could partake in the discussion with the grown-ups. To be able to attend the meeting in the main hall meant a coming of age to the young members of the Chen family.

Of all the members of the Chen family, only Chen Ning, Chen Ning, and Chen Xiao were able to sit inside the main hall before they reached thirty.

"Xiao Fan, if you would like to sit in those seats, you need to get into at least the Jin City University. Or, if your dad got promoted and secured a position in Jin City."

Chen Xu noticed Chen Fan's long glance toward the meeting hall, so he said with a sneer.

"I can attend even the national congress meetings if I want, much less a family gathering. "Chen Fan said lightly.

"Humph. Keep bluffing. I can't wait to see you embarrass yourself in front of our guests. "Chen Xu shorted.

Hearing his words, An Ya felt concern rise in side of her.

The Chen family clan gathering was an important event for the family members to garner respect from fellow clansman. Therefore, many family members invited prestigious guests to attend the meeting, turning the event into a showdown of each family's social connections.

Over the past few years, the Old Man and Great Uncle Chen Zhenxin were able to bring in the largest number of reputable guests.

The old man started his career with nothing. Although he was retired, many of his former subordinates now sat on powerful positions. As for Chen Zhenxin, his high rank in the government meant many sycophants or lobbyists wanted to cozy up to him, and there was no better opportunity to do so than the family clan gathering.
