"Just a lucky guess" Hutton replied to Lily with a mysterious smile on his face. But only he knew that was a blatant lie.
During his past life, he has done numerous missions in various parts of the world. And amongst this missions, majority of them are were completed in China. So if they knew about Hutton’s past life, they wouldn’t have been surprised for Hutton to accurately guess the area they are currently in.
"We have arrived Miss Lily" Suddenly, the driver of the limousine Hutton, Lily and the bodyguards are in spoke up which brought Lily back to her senses.
"We finally get to meet big sis again" Lily suddenly commented with an excited look on her face. As for Hutton, he currently have a solemn look on his face as he thought.
’I finally get to meet a veteran first class family’
The Pedri family inwhich he confronted back at the Star City can only be regarded as a bottom level first rank family while the Ling family which he is about to meet is a veteran first class family which has been in this position even before World War 3.
While Hutton was having this thoughts in his mind, The car in which he was in suddenly stopped as the two doors of the limousine opened.
"Big sis!!" Lily exclaimed in excitement as she dashed out of the car and landed on the bosom of a red haired young lady that is surrounded by three burly bodyguards.
"It’s good to see you both again" The lady spoke up as she gently hugged Lily with a calm smile on her face.
’Am I seeing things or has she gotten attractive?’ Hutton thought with a surprised look on his face while he stared at the young lady hugging Lily.
Apparently, this young lady is none other than Ling Fei who is now in a white and blue floral print Qipao[1] which completed the light blue lipstick on her lips. Not only that, but her red colored hair were all tied back in a traditional way while her eyes has become more seductive than the last time Hutton saw her.
"But I must say, you have gotten more pleasing to eye Miss Ling Fei" Hutton eventually said with a light smirk on his face which surprised Ling Fei a little.
"Well it’s all thanks to my parents Mr. Hutton" Ling Fei eventually replied with a comfortable smile on her face. Just then, Ling Hai who has just come out of his own limousine suddenly spoke up as he approached Hutton and the others.

"We shouldn’t make the guest stand outside for too long Fei. Our father is waiting for him in the family hall"
"I know that Hai" Ling Fei replied almost instantly with an indifferent look on her face before she shifted her attention to Hutton and said in a friendly manner.
"My dad is currently waiting for you at our family Hall. Do you want to meet him now or later?"
"Now should be best" Hutton answered with a light smile on his face even if he was asking numerous questions about how her father wants to meet him in his mind.
"Ok, you can follow me" Ling Fei said before she suddenly began to move out of that area with her bodyguards.
’Hmph’ Ling Hai thought with a cold look on his face before he also began to leave that area with the group of men that is around him.
"We should follow them Mr. Hutton" Lily said to Hutton before she began to move quickly to catch up to Ling Fei.
’Well let’s see what the head of the Ling family wants’ Hutton eventually thought as he took in a deep breath before he began to leave the area the limousine were parked.
The area inwhich the whole group just left is just an open space that is right after the grand entrance of the Ling family residence. In this residence, there are various high rising buildings that has the look of a pavilion while open spaces are also seen all around the residence where a few people could be seen fighting each other in some of these spaces.
Not only that, but at the centre of the residence is where the highest and widest building Is located. And currently, this is the area Hutton and the others are going to right now.
"Let me give you a piece of advice before we go in, don’t act arrogant or prideful before my dad or else you will dearly regret it" Ling Fei told Hutton right at the entrance of the tallest building in the residence.
"Got it" Hutton replied to Ling Fei with a solemn expression on his face. Right after that, Ling Hai who has been quietly following the whole group suddenly stepped forward and yelled out in a dignified and respectful tone.
"Good day Seniors. I would like to bring the guest Fei brought back to the family head"
Right after saying that, Ling Hai stepped back a little as he stared at the tall entrance door of the building with an expectant look on his face.
But he didn’t stay that way for long as the entrance to the building Hutton and the others are facing suddenly slide open before a deep and solemn voice sounded out of the building.
"Come in"
"Let’s go" Ling Fei said before she walked into the building along with Hutton and the others. When everyone got into the building, the entrance door tmof the building mysteriously closed itself.
’How is this possible?’ Hutton thought with a dumbfounded look on his face. But he quickly cane back to his senses after Liky gave him a quick nudge at his side and whispered.
"Look at where we are you dummy"
"Huh?" Hutton muttered in confusion to what Lily just said before he looked towards where she is looking. But as soon as he did, he immediately cursed internally.
’Sh*t’
Right now everyone that just got into the building is surrounded by aged men who are seated quietly observing them. While at the direction the group is facing is where the only middle aged man In the hall is being seated.
But out of all the men that is seated in this hall, it is the middle aged the whole group that just got into the building feats the most.
’This must be the head of the Ling family and also Ling Fei’s father’ Hutton thought with a serious look on his face while he stared at the middle aged man that is seated in the hall.
This middle aged man the whole group is staring at has a curly black hair that have a shade of red at its end and a pair of bright red eyes that looks deep and stern. He is currently on a black and red colored Changsang[2] clothing that has various patterns colored in gold linen all over it.
As for the aged men that are surrounding the group, they all wore a bright red Changsang that has gold colored linen all over it.
"Greetings to the elders and the family head" just then, everyone except Hutton quickly kowtowed on the ground. When Hutton saw all this, he was surprisingly calm as he stared at the middle aged man on the highest seat in the hall.
"What are you doing Hutton!? Quickly kowtow now!" Ling Fei whispered rather loudly with a panicked look on his face. But shockingly, instead of Hutton to look anxious as he quickly kowtow, he is rather smiling in a relax manner as he replied to Ling Fei.
"That won’t be necessary"
"Presumptuous!!" One of the elders seated in the hall suddenly exclaimed with a furious look on his face as he hurriedly stood up ready to pounce on Hutton.
But before he could, the middle aged man who has been quiet throughout the time Hutton and the others first got into the hall suddenly said in a relaxed manner.
"Stand down elder Jiao"
When the elder heard the middle aged man, he was stiffened speechless for some moments before he replied respectfully while he sat back down.
"As you wish family head"
Right after that, the middle aged man put his attention on Hutton who is still standing upright with a relaxed smile on his face as he said.
"This is the first time I have seen someone act so bold right in the middle of our family hall and in exact centre of our residence"
"Well honored sir its all thanks to my capabilities and my knowledge" Hutton replied with a calm smile on his face. When the middle aged man heard him, he was immediately surprised as he asked.
"Your capabilities and your knowledge?"
"Yes honored sir, let me explain" Hutton said before he suddenly walked out of the group and faced the stares of both the elders and the family head alone.
’What is he planning on doing?’ Ling Fei thought with a curious look on her face. After internally taking in a deep breath, Hutton finally said.
"Although I am not trying to belittle your family or am I overestimating my abilities, but the truth is I can’t see any reason to kowtow to all these elders here since I can see the limit of their strengths"
