Bai Wan’er couldn’t take her eyes off Ye Qingfeng. She just wanted to look at him one more ti and forever rember his appearance and his cold expression, burying it deep in her heart.
"The first ti we t, you looked just like a beggar, how could I have treated you kindly?"
"You always ignore others with indifference, looking down on everything. How would I know that you had such exceptional skills?"
"My way of speaking annoys you, but how would you know that it’s because I care about you!"
"You are always so cold and indifferent, do you know how many people would be chard by your smile?"
"I really want to know what kind of girl can stay by your side, but unfortunately, from today on, I might not even have the right to look for you?"
Her mind was filled with countless thoughts as scenes from her ti with Ye Qingfeng flashed through her mind. Her face bead with a smile, and there were glistening tears in her eyes.
"Ye Qingfeng, I like you, but these words, I will bury in my heart and never tell you!"
With this last glance, she seed to suppress all her longings, shifting her gaze in another direction.
Ye Qingfeng’s eyes slightly narrowed; Bai Wan’er’s glance just now held too much inside.
Jian Chen deliberately glanced in Ye Qingfeng’s direction with a hint of pride.
"Kid, I don’t care what your background is, or what thods you’ve used to make Wan’er like you so much, but after today, she will be my fiancée, and you are destined to be a loser!"
The emcee, seeing that both the male and female protagonists were present, continued, "Everyone, the stars of tonight have already stood by my side. Miss Bai is as beautiful as a goddess, and Young Master Luo is handso and dashing, truly a perfect match."
"Their union is truly a masterpiece of fate!" the emcee continued, "The two of them fell in love at first sight and had the fortune to et each other amongst a vast sea of people, such emotions are enviable and deserve everyone’s blessings."
"Their becoming engaged is a fateful coincidence from the heavens, and I believe everyone present thinks the sa way, right?"
The emcee smiled, "Such a pair of soon-to-be newlyweds having withstood the test of ti, should anyone here be opposed? Next, let’s have Young Master Luo place the token of love, which he has ticulously prepared, on Miss Bai. We’ll leave the mont to the stars of tonight!"
The emcee finished and stepped back with a smile, allowing Bai Wan’er to face Jian Chen directly.
Jian Chen swiftly took out an exquisite gift box from his pocket. As the box opened, a dazzling light burst forth; it was a platinum bracelet embedded with nine blue gemstones.
"Wan’er, this is for you!"
Jian Chen’s eyes were filled with deep affection, but Bai Wan’er’s heart grew tense once more. Her delicate hands clenched tightly, unwilling to extend them; she knew that once she wore this bracelet, she would officially beco Jian Chen’s fiancée.
Fang ilian’s expression was complex, and sitting in another part of the guest seats, An Ruoqing also wore a heavy expression, for only they knew the struggle within Bai Wan’er’s heart at that mont.
Seeing Bai Wan’er hesitate to reach out, Jian Chen grew anxious and was about to pull her slender hand.
At this mont, an untily voice echoed in the hall.
"Hold on, who says there’s no one opposed?"
Hearing this voice, Bai Wan’er trembled in shock, turning back incredulously.
Jian Chen’s expression changed drastically, and he too looked in the direction of the voice.
Bai Gang, Jian Xu, and Liu Min also turned angrily towards the source of the voice, while only Fang ilian looked surprised.
Where all the gazes converged, Ye Qingfeng stood calmly, head held high.
"I object!"
He ignored the murderous looks from Jian Chen’s group and spoke loudly. Everyone in the hall heard it clearly.
"Why... why?"
Bai Wan’er felt a mix of surprise and confusion in her heart, not understanding why Ye Qingfeng would choose to speak out at this point.
The emcee’s face froze, and upon seeing Ye Qingfeng’s ordinary attire, he imdiately lost respect and chuckled, "Young man, what do you an?"
"Referring to as a brother, do you even deserve that?" Ye Qingfeng said indifferently. "You asked if anyone objected, and now that I’ve stood out to object, what’s wrong with that?"
Ye Qingfeng’s objection wasn’t because he had feelings for Bai Wan’er.
He simply wanted to object, so he did.
The emcee was at a loss for words, awkward but with no grounds to argue.
The question of whether anyone objects was rely a procedural formality; who would truly consider this question seriously?
Jian Chen’s face was extrely dark, and Bai Gang’s face was full of anger as he stepped forward.
"What are you doing?"
He looked at Ye Qingfeng with great dissatisfaction.
Jian Xu was even more direct, waving his hand, "Security, throw this troublemaker out!"
Ye Qingfeng smiled playfully, shaking his finger.
"Troublemaker?" he continued, "If I’m the only one objecting, then I’ll admit I’m causing trouble. But you’re welco to ask if any of the guests sitting here agree?"
With these words, the Jian family of three imdiately sensed sothing was wrong, a foreboding rising in their hearts.
"Those who object, stand up!"
With Ye Qingfeng’s calm command, people began to stand up imdiately.
"I object too!"
"I object!"
"Object..."
In an instant, nearly ninety percent of the guests stood up, leaving the Bai family’s few relatives standing there, bewildered, not knowing what was happening.
Jian Xu’s couple, Bai Gang, and Jian Chen were all left stunned.
Jian Chen’s heart scread, "What the hell is going on?"
To their horror, they noticed that those who stood up were nearly all the top elites of Jiangbei City, including prominent figures like Chu Xiangdong, Zhang Xu, Hong Tianxiong, and Wang Haifu, whose voices were even more powerful and resonant.
Even the most respected person, who holds a position of prominence in Yanjing, the highest authority of the Guo Family, Guo Qing, stood up to express his stance.
Bai Gang and Fang ilian were completely at a loss. This was supposed to be an engagent banquet; who could have foreseen that nearly all the guests would speak out against it?
This was utterly unprecedented.
In the midst of everyone’s chaotic murmuring, Ye Qingfeng made his way through the crowd, step by step, to the center of attention.
With a wave of his hand, all the voices were silenced, and everyone sat back down in unison.
This scene shook Bai Gang and the others to the core, wondering remarkably if Ye Qingfeng actually commanded these people?
After all, these were the top elite figures from Jiangbei City, and for soone like Ye Qingfeng, a novice young man, how could he have the ability to command them?
Jian Xu’s couple grew increasingly uneasy as Jian Chen flew into a rage.
Ye Qingfeng ignored Jian Chen’s gaze that seed nearly ablaze and looked directly at Bai Wan’er.
