Morgan had already chosen the person to introduce him to, and that person was Cecil, the host.
This cocktail party was a gathering of upper-class individuals and an excellent networking opportunity. As the host, Cecil's guest list certainly wouldn't include mutual enemies.
Following Morgan, Gao Yang approached Cecil, who had stopped receiving guests by then and was chatting merrily with people. Seeing Morgan and Gao Yang approaching, Cecil quickly left his group, nodded towards them, and then the three of them walked towards Will, who was also engaged in conversation.
