"So, I’ve never seen what this charity gala looks like. Could you take to experience it?" Ye Luo looked at Yamaguchi Momoe, curiosity written all over his face.
"This..." Yamaguchi Momoe hesitated a mont.
"If it’s not possible, then forget it." A hint of disappointnt flashed across Ye Luo’s eyes.
Looking at Ye Luo, Yamaguchi Momoe’s gaze flickered for a mont, then she said, "If you really want to go, it’s not impossible. The event is hosted by the Pri Minister’s wife and attended by celebrities from all sectors of the Island Country, with very strict screening. Outsiders find it difficult to enter. You could pretend to be my attendant and go in with . Would that be alright?"
"That’s fine. Thank you, Miss Momoe, for giving the opportunity to witness the elegance of the Island Country’s top tycoons and celebrities." Ye Luo said with a smile, a curious light twinkling in the depth of his eyes.
At seven o’clock in the evening, the Pri Minister’s residence was brightly lit, and the open ground outside was already filled with various luxury cars. One after another, the Island Country’s elite and noble figures got out of their cars, accompanied by attendants or arm-in-arm with ladies, and made their way into the Pri Minister’s residence.
At the entrance, a large number of ard soldiers were standing guard, rigorously inspecting each person entering to prevent any weapons from being brought in; the security appeared extrely tight.
Before long, a luxurious Maybach stopped there. Ye Luo, dressed as an attendant, quickly got out of the car and opened the rear door.
Yamaguchi Momoe stepped out in a black low-cut evening gown, revealing a hint of her fair décolletage, with a valuable platinum necklace around her pale neck and her hair styled up.
She exuded an air of dignified nobility and a powerful presence that imdiately drew the attention of many onlookers.
Ye Luo, with his head bowed, followed behind Yamaguchi Momoe into the Pri Minister’s residence. At the entrance, they underwent inspection before being allowed to proceed inside.
At this point, Ye Luo activated his Clairvoyant Eye, scanning the entire layout of the Pri Minister’s residence. However, his Clairvoyant Eye could only scan a distance of a little over a thousand ters and couldn’t encompass the whole residence, but he roughly understood the situation.
Tonight, the residence was heavily guarded by nurous soldiers, and among them were hidden many qualified experts, including several from the Saint Realm. It was indeed not easy to capture the Dragon Head under these circumstances.
Walking into the grand hall at the center of the Pri Minister’s residence, there gathered a large group of the Island Country’s elite and noble figures—major families, powerful factions, and high-ranked governnt officials—all of which made the place incredibly lively.
This charity gala was indeed of the highest standard; only those with significant status in the Island Country’s upper society were able to enter.
As the heiress to the Yamaguchi Family, holding sway over more than half of the Yamaguchi Group’s assets, Momoe naturally had a grand reputation. Upon her arrival, a crowd of people ca up to warmly greet her, and she responded to each one with a smile on her face.
"Miss Momoe, long ti no see!"
Just then, a hearty voice sounded, and a group of people approached from the distance, led by the Family Head of the Tagawa Family, Tagawa Banki, with Tagawa Ichiro standing by his side.
Seeing Tagawa Ichiro, Ye Luo’s expression changed. He quickly bowed his head and stood behind Yamaguchi Momoe, making sure not to be seen by Tagawa Ichiro. After all, the man knew him, and being recognized would certainly be troubleso.
"Family Head Tagawa!" Yamaguchi Momoe greeted Tagawa Banki with a smile.
At that mont, Tagawa Ichiro’s gaze was fixed on Yamaguchi Momoe. Suddenly sensing sothing, he glanced at Ye Luo behind her, and a look of suspicion flashed across his eyes.
"Miss Momoe, who is the person behind you?" Tagawa Ichiro asked, looking at Yamaguchi Momoe, but his gaze remained fixated on Ye Luo behind her. Since Ye Luo stood behind her and was slightly bowing his head, Tagawa Ichiro couldn’t get a clear view, only feeling a sense of familiarity.
"Oh, he’s a new attendant I hired. He might be a bit nervous since it’s his first ti at a place like this and isn’t quite used to it yet, I apologize," Yamaguchi Momoe said apologetically.
"Oh, I see," Tagawa Ichiro said indifferently.
Thereafter, Tagawa Banki took Tagawa Ichiro away. As they stepped aside, Tagawa Banki asked his son, "Ichiro, do you recognize the attendant of Yamaguchi Momoe?"
"It feels sowhat familiar, but I didn’t get a good look at the face," Tagawa Ichiro replied, frowning slightly as he pondered.
On the other side, Yamaguchi Momoe glanced at Ye Luo and asked tentatively, "Do you know that Tagawa Ichiro?"
"That man had a conflict with back when he was in Huaxia," Ye Luo explained, "because he coveted the beauty of my girlfriend. I wanted to avoid any trouble just now, which is why... I hope you understand, Miss Momoe."
"Ah, so that’s what it was," Yamaguchi Momoe nodded, not suspecting any deceit—firstly because she didn’t think Ye Luo would lie to her, and secondly because she knew that Tagawa Ichiro indeed had spent so ti in Huaxia.
"The Crown Prince has arrived!"
At that mont, a loud voice rang out. Instantly, all the dignitaries and socialites in the hall were visibly startled, their eyes unanimously turning toward the entrance of the hall, expressing a solemn deanor.
Not long after the announcent, a group of people slowly entered the hall, led by a young man who was handso and elegant.
He was dressed in plain white clothes without any discernible brand, but those who were familiar with fashion could tell at a glance that the young man’s clothing was designed by world-class designers and that the materials were of the highest quality. The entire outfit was worth at least several hundred thousand.
This attire made the young man appear exceedingly noble. A radiant smile graced his lips, and his entire being exuded the aristocratic aura of a prince, which indeed he was—a Crown Prince.
This person was the son of the Imperial Family’s Heavenly Emperor from the Island Country, now, Crown Prince Miyamoto Takeshi, the pinnacle existence among the younger generation of the Island Country, revered by millions.
Behind Miyamoto Takeshi followed a number of Imperial Family mbers and a group of white-clad, stern-faced guards. Each exuded a powerful presence—their strength all at the Innate Peak Stage or higher, including four experts at the second level of the Saint Realm. Their stature was nothing short of magnificent.
"Greetings to His Highness, the Crown Prince!"
As Miyamoto Takeshi entered, the socialites and powerbrokers in the hall bowed and greeted him, expressing their utmost respect for the Imperial Crown Prince.
Although the Imperial Family no longer held political power, they still wielded considerable authority throughout the Island Country, being the most revered entity among the citizens of the Island Country.
Every person from the Island Country, regardless of their status, dared not disrespect the Imperial Family. And Miyamoto Takeshi as the Crown Prince represented the Heavenly Emperor himself, so naturally, they dared not show any lack of respect—as if they were ancient subjects showing veneration to a Crown Prince.
