Sworn Brothers!
Fang Guozhenās idea truly shocked everyone present, after all, who were Fang Guozhen and the other two?
They were all Jianghu giants, legendary figures from the Heavenly List.
Top figures of the Zoroastrian Sect, whose mere foot stomping could make the whole world tremble thrice, to swear brotherhood with them, what virtue or capability does Chen Jiusi have to receive such fortune!
Let alone the others present, even Chen Jiusi was stunned, good heavens, this proposal is bold enough!
Becoming sworn brothers with three Heavenly List experts, who would dare to cross me in the future, who would touch me without thinking about my backing?
But Fang Guozhenās words might have been a joke, so it might not be taken seriously!
And even if itās true, Chen Jie canāt agree immediately, after all, one canāt appear too eager.
Thinking this way, Chen Jie immediately raised his glass to Fang Guozhen and said, "Brother Fang, youāve had too much to drink, what virtue or capability does a junior like me have to swear brotherhood with you three, itās a joke, a joke."
Chen Jie said half-jokingly.
Fang Guozhen shook his head and said, "Iām not joking, nor am I doing this on a whim, Iām serious, Brother Jiu Si, even though today is the first time weāre meeting, for some reason I feel a great affinity with you, as if Iāve known you in a past life, so this sworn brotherhood is heartfelt, definitely not a joke."
"Old Peng, Old Liu, you two elder brothers, what do you say?"
Fang Guozhen looked at the smiling Peng Yingyu and Liu Futong, who were drinking.
Upon hearing this, Peng Yingyu spoke up, "Brother Jiu Si and I are already sworn brothers; back when I swore brotherhood with Ni Wenjun, Brother Ni, I mentioned Brother Jiu Si, if you count it, Brother Jiu Si and I are already sworn brothers. Swearing again now, I have no objection, just not sure what Old Liu thinks!"
Peng Yingyu looked at Liu Futong, Liu Futong raised his glass and took a sip, "I have even less objection, my life was saved by Brother Jiu Si, I am also willing to recognize Brother Jiu Si as a sworn brother, but I wonder if Brother Jiu Si is willing to honor this old brotherās face!"
Chen Jie was momentarily dumbfounded by what the two big shots said, followed by a wry smile and said, "Three elder brothers, please donāt make it difficult for me, I have the heart to swear brotherhood with you, but the disparity between us is like fate, even if I am willing, others present might have objections."
"Who has objections?"
Upon hearing Chen Jieās words, Fang Guozhenās eyes widened, and a murderous aura filled his gaze as he swept it around, scaring those nearby into pale faces.
Including the nearby Little Ming King who was watching but with a jealousy-induced flushing face.
Little Ming King was indeed jealous, for what virtue or capability did Chen Jiusi have to receive recognition and sworn brotherhood with three major figures from the Zoroastrian Sect, is this something that one can swear easily?
After all, these big shots are his fatherās generation, Chen Jiusi is only one year older than him, if he swears brotherhood with them, what does he become?
Moreover, what he envied more was that he, the dignified son of the Ming King and the new generation Ming King, hadnāt managed to make these old folks submit to him, and who would have thought these old folks collectively fond of Chen Jiusi now.
Once they swear brotherhood, Chen Jiusiās status would rise greatly, who would dare provoke him in the future?
He would have Heavenly List experts, ranks six, seven, and nine as his sworn brothers, whose backing is stronger than that?
Even Little Ming King sought such treatment but never achieved it, while Chen Jiusi got it easily, and surprisingly, itās proposed by three big shots proactively, yet he appears reluctant, itās simply, simply...
Little Ming King couldnāt find words to describe Chen Jiusiās state at that moment.
Of course, he wasnāt from later generations, if he were, flipping through a dictionary might find a word.
Playing both sides!
Little Ming Kingās heart was mixed with emotions, while others around also had similar feelings, up and down.
How to describe their current feelings?
Hmm, imagine you are an ordinary office worker, one day at work, suddenly, the CEOs of Penguin, Xiaomi, and Tesla come to you and without a word.
Letās swear brotherhood from today onwards, we become life-and-death brothers.
And your colleaguesā feelings at that time are precisely the feelings of everyone present now.
Hmm, quite peculiar.
Everyone was watching the four people drinking happily in the center, none had objections, after all, when big people want to do something, what right do you have to object?
Fang Guozhen glanced around, seeing no one being foolish, smiled and said, "Jiu Si, see? No one has objections, do you still have objections?"
Chen Jie didnāt speak upon hearing this, instead looking at Peng Yingyu and Liu Futong, Peng Yingyu smiled and said, "I have no objection."
Liu Futong showed an encouraging expression and said, "Agree to it, Jiu Si."
"Exactly, Brother Jiu Si, agree to it."
Fang Guozhen urged once more, upon hearing this, Chen Jie took a deep breath, then clasped his fists and said, "Today, since the three elder brothers are so enthusiastic, I cannot dampen my brothersā interest, and after all, this matter is my honor, so dare not refuse!"
"Hahaha... Good, thatās how it should be, being indecisive is quite unsatisfying."
Fang Guozhen saw Chen Jie agree, then looked at Peng Yingyu and said, "Old Peng, say a few words."
Peng Yingyu now chuckled and said, "This is a good thing, nothing worth dwelling on, hurry and notify to set up the incense table, write a name plaque!"
