"Kid, you probably don’t know who I am. I’m the young master of Huatai Group, and one of the organizers of this economic summit is my father. It’s my duty to ensure the smooth running of the summit. Now I’ve got doubts about your identity. Please show your invitation. If you don’t have one, then I’m sorry, but don’t bla for being impolite."
"I really don’t have an invitation," Ye Luo said leisurely as he sipped a glass of red wine, looking very calm.
As soon as Ye Luo spoke, many CEOs around him, as well as others, were shocked. They hadn’t expected that this guy really didn’t have an invitation. Could he really be here just to stir up trouble?
The rich young man’s lips curved into a cold smile as he said, "Kid, it seems you really snuck in with ill intent. Soone, notify the security personnel to co over and take this intruder away for a thorough check. We need to see what his purpose is."
Imdiately, a group of security personnel dressed in black ca over, about to take Ye Luo away by force.
"Hold on, who dares to touch my husband?"
Just then, a cold, domineering voice rang out. Qin Yuru stepped forward with an indifferent face, exuding a powerful aura, followed by Ling Qingya and Luo Jingxuan on either side.
"Miss Qin!"
Seeing Qin Yuru, the rich young man’s expression changed and he called out with a hint of respect.
"Is it you who wants to take my husband away?" Qin Yuru’s eyes were full of deterrence as she stared down the young master.
"He is... Miss Qin... your husband?"
Upon hearing Qin Yuru’s words, the young master was stunned, looking at Ye Luo with a dumbfounded expression, while many around them wore surprised looks.
Then they seed to realize sothing, and their expressions changed all at once. In that mont, they seed to know who the man in the cheap attire was. Wasn’t that Ye Luo, the one who had cuckolded Ji Lingtian at his engagent party?
At this mont, many attendees at the summit turned their attention over to this commotion, and quite a few who had been at that engagent party were surprised to recognize Ye Luo.
anwhile, Hou Jingwen, who was standing in the distance ready to enjoy the show, saw this scene unfold and his face changed, showing a look of astonishnt as he gazed at Ye Luo.
"This... Miss Qin, it’s all a misunderstanding," the young master said with an embarrassed face, looking at Qin Yuru.
"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding? You said my husband ca here with ulterior motives. Does that an I, Qin Yuru, snuck in as well?"
Qin Yuru said coldly - although a woman, she had an air of authority that ca with high position, coupled with her background, which made the young master look slightly uncomfortable, his eyes involuntarily glancing at Hou Jingwen in the distance.
At this point, Hou Jingwen shifted his gaze and walked over, smiling as he said, "Why such anger, Miss Qin? Everything is probably just a misunderstanding. After all, the gentleman’s attire is so cheap, and he has the look of a country bumpkin who has never tasted fine food. It’s only natural for him to be doubted amidst the rest of us here."
Hou Jingwen’s remarks were plain, but between the lines was full of sarcasm, likening Ye Luo to a country bumpkin.
Qin Yuru looked at Hou Jingwen, her eyes subtly shifting as she said, "Oh, it’s Young Master Hou, isn’t it? I don’t quite understand the aning behind what Young Master Hou just said. Are you mocking my husband?"
Hearing Qin Yuru ask so directly, Hou Jingwen’s face changed slightly as he replied, "Of course not, I was rely stating facts."
"Alright, wife, don’t get angry with such an idiot. You’ll only upset yourself and it wouldn’t be good if you get so worked up that it affects the baby," Ye Luo said, wrapping his arm around Qin Yuru and smirking.
"Kid, what did you say?" Hou Jingwen’s face darkened when he heard Ye Luo openly insulting him, his eyes flashing with anger as he coldly stared at Ye Luo.
Many in the audience who knew of Hou Jingwen’s identity were startled to hear Ye Luo dare to curse at Hou Jingwen, and couldn’t help but admire the guy’s fearlessness and readiness to offend anyone.
"Who is the idiot talking about?" Ye Luo said indifferently.
"Idiot talking about..." Hou Jingwen nearly got tangled by his own words because of Ye Luo’s remark, his complexion imdiately turning very awkward.
"Oh, so you admit you’re the idiot, then it seems I haven’t said anything wrong!" A smile appeared on the corner of Ye Luo’s mouth.
"You..." Hou Jingwen stared at Ye Luo with a somber face, his fists clenching involuntarily.
"Young Master Hou, please calm down, this is all a misunderstanding, all caused by my foolish son. We are all friends here; let’s not spoil the harmony!" At this mont, Wei Yandong, the president of the Century Group—one of the hosts of the event—hurried over, playing the peacemaker and continuously trying to diate.
"Hmph, you just wait!" Hou Jingwen gave Ye Luo a cold glance and turned to walk away with a flick of his sleeve.
"Mr. Qin, my apologies, my young son has offended Mr. Ye, please forgive us!" Wei Yandong said with a slight bow to Qin Yuru and Ye Luo before departing with his son.
"Wife, you really are domineering!" Ye Luo unabashedly kissed Qin Yuru on the face and said with a smile.
"You, always stirring up trouble wherever you go. Do you have so feud with that Hou Jingwen? He seed to be deliberately targeting you!" Qin Yuru looked at Ye Luo and said.
"Actually, here’s what happened..." Ling Qingya recounted the incident that had occurred at the airport.
"After hearing all this, I realize we’ve offended this Hou Jingwen. You two should be careful, his background is not simple," Qin Yuru said after listening.
"What’s his identity? Even more formidable than Ji Lingtian?" Ye Luo asked, appearing unconcerned.
"He’s the second young master of the Hou Family."
"The Hou Family? Never heard of them. What kind of family is that?"
Qin Yuru’s eyes sparkled as she explained, "Capital City, being the capital of Huaxia, is a place of intricate and complex powers, with major families entrenched here. So powerful forces are well-known, such as the previous five major families of Capital City."
"Then there are those families whose power is hidden behind the scenes. Even though they aren’t well-known, their power is imnse, way beyond what the five major families can muster."
"Just like the Ji Family, who kept silent and out of sight, but their strength is not a bit weaker than the five major families. There are four old, reputable families in Capital City: the Long Family, the Ji Family, the Cao Family, and the Hou Family. These four families have deep roots in Capital City and, although not widely known, are recognized by the upper echelons of society."
"Those in the real upper circles of Capital City are aware of the existence of these four families and know their terror. They have influence spread all over Capital City and are much stronger than those so-called five major families and the three major ancient martial arts families."
