Capítulo 1023: Chapter 1024: Attending the Family Banquet (Part 2)
The blue limited edition Koenigsegg sports car stopped at the entrance of a magnificent building.
Of course, staring at the grand and opulent mansion before her, Huo Yishan was not very surprised.
On the way here, Li Yuan had already inford her that they were attending a family dinner at the Presidential Residence.
As the daughter of the President of Z Country, her father’s Presidential Residence was certainly no less impressive, so she wasn’t shocked.
“Let’s go.” Getting out of the car, Li Yuan smiled as he extended his arm to her.
Such a significant occasion, and he truly insisted on bringing her here? If his grandmother found out, who knows how furious she would beco.
“Li Yuan, are all your family mbers coming?”
“Yes.”
“Everyone is coming?”
He glanced sideways slightly, as if he saw through her worry.
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you suffer any grievances again.” His gaze was firm, as if there was more to his words.
Huo Yishan was taken aback.
The ‘again’ in “won’t let you suffer grievances again” – did it refer to the first ti she t his family?
“Let’s go.”
He lightly curled his lips, a confident and charming smile appearing, the kind that might make many won lose themselves.
“But this is the Presidential Residence, I’m an outsider. If anything goes wrong, I won’t be responsible.”
“I’ll be responsible!”
“Pfft!”
Amused by him, Huo Yishan reached for his right arm.
As they approached the entrance, the secretary of the President, who was acquainted with Li Yuan, ca into view.
Only, while the secretary knew Li Yuan, he did not recognize the stunning woman beside him.
Moreover…
The secretary glanced behind him. Since the invitation was personally delivered to the Li Family, seeing him arrive alone was puzzling.
“Young Master Li, just you?”
Upon hearing this, Li Yuan’s face imdiately darkened, “Secretary Jin, are you blind?”
Secretary Jin was taken aback, “What?”
“Otherwise, how could you not see my fiancée beside ?” He raised an eyebrow with a calm tone.
Secretary Jin then realized his slip, “Apologies, I didn’t realize she was your fiancée.”
Previously, there had been no news about him bringing his fiancée, and his earlier ‘alone’ ant the family, as it seed he was the only one here, not implying the absence of the woman beside him.
“My parents and grandmother will arrive later; can we go in first?” Seeing Secretary Jin’s confusion, Li Yuan spoke up.
Secretary Jin imdiately stepped back and respectfully gestured, “Of course, please, this way.”
Li Yuan turned his head, giving Huo Yishan a gentle smile before they both headed towards the main entrance of the Presidential Residence.
Secretary Jin stood behind them, suddenly feeling puzzled.
He rembered that the second young master of the Li Family was about to get engaged, but the woman in the last published photo didn’t seem to be this lady. Or maybe, she was made-up differently today, making her look like a completely different person?
Standing there, watching their figures disappear around the corner of the light, Secretary Jin furrowed his brows, but didn’t ponder further. Instead, he continued to receive the subsequent arriving guests.
…
Stepping into the lavish hall, it was already bustling with guests, each holding a glass of wine, gracefully moving back and forth within the banquet hall, occasionally stopping to converse with others.
“Li Yuan?”
A familiar voice ca from not far away.
Li Yuan turned his head, seeing the President’s wife approaching.
The reason for tonight’s invitation was, one, because the Li Family was exceptionally wealthy, and two, the Li Family and the Presidential Residence had a certain relationship, so Li Yuan was not a stranger to the President’s wife.
