After a while, the line of people who wanted to go forward and give their gifts to him decreased. Only a few of them stayed to talk with Old Master Song, but they all still didn't stay for long for fear that the old master would be annoyed by their presence.
It was easy to see who wanted to curry favor with the Song family. Those who came forward early and very determined, even desperate, are those who had come to the party for a purpose other than just greeting and celebrating the Old Master Song's birthday.
They all had fawning smiles and gestures, looking like a vasal who frantically praised their kings.
Ran Xueyi also noticed that these people were tycoons around the country, proving to her once more that the Song family was truly powerful and mighty.
