Chapter 1292: Chapter 1291: Want to Become the Favorite by His Side! This jewelry exhibition was jointly sponsored by big business tycoons from Demon City and the Capital City. Among the sponsors were Xiao Ya, He Sihai, and Wu Ming. At the moment, Xiao Ya learned from Tang Mu that ’Master Lin’ had actually agreed to attend the jewelry exhibition, and she was immediately thrilled. She quickly shared the news with the other sponsors. "President Xiao, Tang Mu is truly your benefactor. With such a good relationship with Tang Mu, becoming a favored figure in front of Master Lin is just a matter of time," someone said. "Being a favored figure of Master Lin, President Xiao, becoming the top lady of Dragon Country’s Entertainment Circle really isn’t a problem anymore!" another added. "You guys have no idea just how terrifying Master Lin’s influence is. His influence isn’t just domestic, internationally, It’s extremely terrifying. I’ve heard through the grapevine that over in Paocai Nation, all the big tycoons worship him." "Even the Paocai Nation Military Department sends him off with the highest honors," another mentioned. "President Xiao, please take care of us more in the future," others requested. "..." At the moment, the other sponsors’ big bosses looked at Xiao Ya with immense envy. Although they were all big shots with extraordinary social statuses, none could compare to being a favored figure by Master Lin’s side. And Xiao Ya, subtly had the opportunity to become a favored figure by Master Lin’s side. At this time, Xiao Ya was in high spirits. Her face was radiant with a smile, and humbly told everyone, "Borrowing your good words, I hope I can indeed become a favored figure by Master Lin’s side in the future!" "Right, Master Lin is coming. Let’s quickly verify his identity. Otherwise, if the gatekeeper accidentally stops him and doesn’t let him in, that would be a sin!" "Yes, yes, yes," others quickly nodded. If the gatekeeper stopped Master Lin outside, ruining his mood, that would indeed be a great sin. Afterward, they hurriedly went to handle this matter. After Lin Dong arrived at the Demon City International Expo Center, he put on a duckbill cap and mask. This way, others wouldn’t recognize him. His popularity hadn’t died down yet, and Lin Dong didn’t want to be recognized by too many people, as it would be too troublesome. Entering inside required identity verification! But at the ordinary passage, the facial recognition had already accumulated a long queue. However, Lin Dong naturally did not cut in line. He stood at the back of the crowd, queuing up. "Brother, my legs are bad; can you stand here and hold my place in line? I’ll give you five hundred yuan, okay? I’ll go sit over there and wait, when it’s your turn, I’ll come over," said a person beside Lin Dong. As he said this, he took out five hundred yuan for Lin Dong. Lin Dong: "..." "Okay, forget the money. I’ll hold your place for you!" Seeing that the person indeed had difficulty standing, he agreed. "Thank you, thank you," the person expressed immense gratitude towards Lin Dong. He also apologized to the people behind. The people behind expressed understanding. After all, the person had a leg injury; letting others hold his place in line was understandable. Just then, Lin Dong’s phone rang. It was Xiao Ya calling him. Xiao Ya’s voice trembled as she spoke to Lin Dong, "Master Lin... Master Lin, haven’t you arrived yet? Shall we come to receive you?" Xiao Ya inquired. Lin Dong replied, "I’m still in line. As for receiving me, that won’t be necessary." Lin Dong didn’t want to be too high-profile. Xiao Ya also knew Lin Dong didn’t like being too high-profile, hence she specially called to ask if he wanted a reception. Now it seemed, it was good that they didn’t come over with great fanfare. Otherwise, it might have displeased Master Lin. Just queuing up? What the hell? Suddenly, she thought of a possibility. "That... Master Lin, you are not queuing up at the ordinary passage, are you?" "Yes. What else?" Lin Dong retorted. Xiao Ya was stupefied. This was ’Master Lin’. Why queue in the ordinary passage? She hurriedly said, "Master Lin, I’m so sorry, really sorry. It was all my fault, I forgot to tell you." "Your identity was entered into the inspection system long ago; among all the guests, you hold the most prestigious status! You can go directly through the Super VIP passage—there’s nobody queuing there." "Oh, I see. Okay," Lin Dong nodded and casually added, "Can I bring someone along with me through that Super VIP passage?" "Of course, you can just bring them along." "Great." After hanging up the phone, Lin Dong walked over to the person who had asked him to queue. He then said, "Buddy, let’s go that way." The direction Lin Dong was pointing in was indeed towards the Super VIP passage. Seeing this, that person was astonished, "Bro, don’t kid around. That’s the Super VIP passage; only big shots can use that." "Let’s just queue up properly." Lin Dong said, "Let’s go." Saying that, he led the way towards that direction. Upon reaching the Super VIP passage, stark contrasts were evident compared to the ordinary passage. In the ordinary passage, there were hundreds of people in the queue. However, here, there was not a single person. Seeing Lin Dong, who had been properly queued up, suddenly breaking from the line to head for the Super VIP passage, Others in the queue sneered. "What’s he doing? That’s the Super VIP passage; he doesn’t think he can actually get in there, does he?" "What is he thinking!" "Forget about him, people in the back, hurry up. Take his spot! If he can’t get through the Super VIP passage, when he comes back to the ordinary passage, direct him to the back of the line." "..." However, just when they all thought Lin Dong was merely trying to impress and wouldn’t get through, they saw him reach the front of the Super VIP passage and he simply scanned his face. Next, the passage opened. He went straight through in a second! Moreover, on the facial security checker, this message appeared. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞 "Identity Approved! You are the most prestigious guest of this jewelry exhibition, welcome Mr. Lin!" Of course, those queuing in the ordinary passage naturally couldn’t see this message. After all, it was too far away! And quickly, that message disappeared. At this moment, Lin Dong said to the limping man again: "Buddy, are you coming this way? If so, come on over. If not, I’m going to head on in." Upon hearing this, the man hurriedly said, "Let’s go, let’s go. Can you really bring me?" "I should be able to," said Lin Dong. The man quickly limped over and was indeed allowed through. Wow! Seeing this scene, those queuing in the ordinary passage were all astounded. "Oh my God, who is that kid? He’s so awesome? He can actually use the Super VIP passage directly." "That’s the passage that superstars like Tang Mu and the sponsor’s big bosses use!" "And he even managed to bring a passerby through!" "Damn, he is so awesome. Why did he even bother coming here to queue? Was he just pretending to be humble?" "If he’s showing off, he certainly has the capital for it!" "That’s true, sigh, I should have handed a cigarette to the big brother just now. Maybe, he would have also taken me through the Super VIP passage. That would have given me so much face." "..." The comments that followed, Lin Dong couldn’t hear them. After Lin Dong led the limping big brother through the Super VIP passage, they parted ways. Then he went off to find Tang Mu.
