Chapter 147 Private Security
Three days later, at night, the banquet hall of the top-notch luxurious hotel in the center of Sigma City was bustling with people. The famous figures of the various worlds of the Purple Cloud Planet were gathered. The scene was filled with dazzling starlight. Looking at it all, it was simply dazzling and too much for the eyes to take in.
“Sir, may I ask if this is your female companion and…” The hostess in charge of guarding the door respectfully received the invitation handed to him and turned to an expressionless middle-aged man behind the two of them, “…follower?”
“Follower?” Chu Nan was stunned for a moment before he turned around to look at the middle-aged man. He thought for a moment and nodded, “Yes, that’s right.”
“Alright, Mr. Chu Nan. Welcome to our company’s banquet with your female companion. I wish you a happy and beautiful night.”
“Thank you.” Chu Nan smiled and pulled the slightly nervous Chu Xiaoxi to the banquet hall behind the door.
The middle-aged man still followed behind the two of them expressionlessly, his footsteps abnormally stable.
The hostess watched the three of them walk in with eyes filled with surprise.
The young man called Chu Nan was probably not even 20 years old. From his clothes, it was obvious that he was not from a noble family. Why was he invited to this banquet?
Although his female companion was young, beautiful, and energetic, she was still a young girl from a small family no matter how one looked at it. She looked like she had never seen the world.
On the contrary, although the middle-aged man behind them looked a little strange to ordinary people and had always maintained an expressionless deadpan face, it was not strange at the banquet today.
This was because… every important figure who came to participate in this banquet would bring one or more bodyguards.
However, with the standards of Chu Nan and his female companion, it was already surprising that they could participate in this banquet. It was simply strange that they could even bring a bodyguard.
However, this was not the most surprising thing.
What truly unbelievable was the invitation that Chu Nan handed over. It was actually signed by the current president of the McDao Group, Macville!
One had to know that this banquet had invited more than 200 famous people from all over the world. However, only less than 10 people could obtain the president’s signature on the invitation.
Who was this Chu Nan?
The hostess’s puzzled gaze did not slow down Chu Nan and the other two’s footsteps.
After walking into the banquet hall, Chu Nan was still fine. Chu Xiaoxi was immediately shocked by the luxurious scene in front of her.
In the huge banquet hall that was nearly 10,000 square meters, it was already filled with all kinds of exquisite food and drinks. Countless male and female attendants in exquisite clothes were walking back and forth.
The incomparably huge crystal chandelier above his head emitted a bright but not blinding light. Coupled with the 100% realistic natural light source on the surrounding walls, it illuminated the entire banquet hall as if it was daytime.
“Wow! Brother, this… this is too… too… too beautiful!”
Chu Xiaoxi had never seen such a situation. She could not help but be shocked and softly cried out.
Her head tilted and she cried out in surprise when she saw the few guests in the distance.
“Oh my god! That’s Lin Minglun! I actually saw Lin Minglun with my own eyes! Wow! Beside him is Johannes! Oh my goodness! That’s Zamun Luo over there! That’s great! I actually saw so many celebrities with my own eyes. I’m willing to die now!”
Seeing Chu Xiaoxi’s shocked expression, Chu Nan could only shake his head helplessly.
He was not interested in so-called celebrities, but Chu Xiaoxi was only a young girl who had just turned 16. It was very normal for her to like celebrities.
Moreover, he had already guessed that the reason why Chu Xiaoxi desperately begged him to bring her to this banquet was clearly because she had heard that a very famous celebrity was coming to participate and wanted to fulfill her wish.

“Brother, do you think I can find them to take a photo and ask for their autograph?” Chu Xiaoxi suddenly turned around and asked.
Chu Nan shrugged, “You can try, but it’s best not to force them.”
“Of course not,” Chu Xiaoxi immediately promised.
“Then go, but be careful not to run too far.”
“Got it.” Seeing that Chu Nan had agreed, Chu Xiaoxi immediately walked towards the crowd of celebrities.
The middle-aged man behind the two of them immediately followed silently.
“Did I spoil this girl too much these few days…” Chu Nan glanced at Chu Xiaoxi’s excited back and could not help but smile and shake his head.
His gaze landed on the middle-aged man who was silently following Chu Xiaoxi. Chu Nan touched his chin and narrowed his eyes in thought.
If he did not say it, no one present would definitely know that this middle-aged man who looked inconspicuous and had always maintained a poker face was actually a powerful third-stage Void Break Realm expert!
Three days ago, when he told Dong Fang about the incident after Chu Xiaoxi was kidnapped the night before, Dong Fang said that he would find someone to contact Chu Nan and help him resolve the problem of protecting his family.
Chu Nan did not take it to heart at that time because after all, Dong Fang was more than 300 light-years away from him. No matter how wide his family’s connections were, he should not have known someone on the Purple Cloud Planet who was enough to help Chu Nan.
However, not long after, a guy who called himself the person in charge of the Seres Security Company’s branch on Purple Cloud Planet took the initiative to find Chu Nan.
After a round of contact and confirmation from Dong Fang, the Seres Security Company stationed on Purple Cloud Planet sent two professional bodyguards to Chu Nan.
One of them was this third-stage Void Break Realm expert called Mu Luo who was following behind Chu Xiaoxi.
As for the other bodyguard who also had the strength of a third-stage Void Break Martial Artist, he was staying at Chu Nan’s house to protect his parents.
In order to not be discovered by Chu Nan’s parents, he was currently cooperating with a security team provided by the Seres Security Company to camp near the farm and secretly provide protection.
In his entire life, Chu Nan had only heard of such a security measure in various entertainment programs. In reality, this was the first time he had seen it. He did not expect it to be used on his family.
Of course, he knew about the Seres Security Company. This large company, called the number one security company in the federation, was extremely famous in the entire Earth Federation and even the surrounding countries.
Private security services were only a small part of their business. The largest business segment of the Seres Security Company was actually to provide safety protection for various civilians and even the military space fleet.
Rumor had it that they had once fought with various cosmic pirates and even the regular military fleets of some countries. Their strength was mysterious and powerful.
Compared to this security company that could be considered top-notch in the entire Earth Federation, the McDao Group only had some business in the west of the Purple Cloud Planet and a few nearby galaxies. It was undoubtedly much inferior.
Such a large company would actually provide private security services to Chu Nan and even send two third-stage Void Break Martial Artists as bodyguards in one go and an entire security team. To Chu Nan, it was simply a dream.
This time, he truly understood the meaning of Dong Fang’s words back then: “The women who want to marry me can line up from here to outer space.”
The background of this good friend he had made in West Cloud Academy was probably much stronger than Chu Nan had imagined.
“Little Brother Chu Nan, you really made me wait.” A voice suddenly sounded from behind and interrupted his gaze.
Chu Nan turned around and saw President Zhang’s smiling and amiable face.
“Ah, hello, President Zhang. I just arrived.”
“Heh heh, there’s still some time before the banquet officially begins. I’ll bring you to see someone first. I wonder if you’re willing to
go?”
Chu Nan shrugged, “Why not?”
