"Ah! Sister-in-law, you are so beautiful." Ye Qingcheng turned her head and looked at Lin Ruyu carefully, her eyes shining with admiration.
Lin Ruyu blushed deeply and teased Ye Hao, saying he was talking nonsense, but she didn't reject Ye Qingcheng's enthusiasm. Ye Qingcheng held Lin Ruyu's hands and was even more surprised by how fair and smooth they were.
"Wow! Sister-in-law, how do you manage it? It's amazing!" Ye Qingcheng asked, widening her eyes at Lin Ruyu.
"It's nothing special! Just get more sleep, as your brother says." Lin Ruyu replied, her face reddening.
At this point, Shangguan Longyi also walked in and sat down, asking, "Your sister-in-law and I are good sisters, it seems we have a lot in common!"
"Ah! Longyi, you know my sister-in-law too?" Ye Qingcheng asked in surprise, not knowing that Shangguan Longyi also knew Lin Ruyu.
"Didn't I ntion before that I have a best friend? Well, it's her." Shangguan Longyi replied with a smile.
Chen Shuyan felt a bit awkward watching this. Even though she knew Lin Ruyu, they weren't close enough to be considered best friends. However, Ye Qingcheng calling Lin Ruyu sister-in-law naturally made them closer.
The most shocking thing to her was the fact that Ye Hao was being called "Hao" by people, and it was by the young generation of the Shangguan Clan and the Ye Family. This made her reevaluate Ye Hao, feeling she knew too little about him.
Ye Hao smiled, inviting them to sit down and chat about n's topics.
Xu Shaoyuan never expected Ye Hao to have such an impressive background. Judging by what he's seen, two prominent young n are calling Ye Hao their brother.
"Didn't expect you to be hiding so deeply, brother!" Xu Shaoyuan laughed.
"No, they're just calling 'Hao' for fun. Long, Long Yi, Dong, Nan, this is the Xu Family's eldest son, Xu Shaoyuan. How about getting to know each other?" Ye Hao introduced with a smile.
"Wow! So, you're the elusive Xu Shaoyuan from the Xu Family?" Shangguan Longyi quickly reached out to shake his hand.
Even though Shangguan Longyi was also an eldest son, the current situation of the Shangguan Clan wasn't as strong as the Xu Family. Additionally, Xu Shaoyuan wasn't arrogant, so he felt befriending soone like this would be beneficial in the future.
"Hello! I've heard about you, Long Yi, a fifth-tier master, not bad." Xu Shaoyuan said with a smile while shaking hands with Shangguan Longyi.
Ye Long was more straightforward, bursting into laughter, "Looks like Xu and Hao brother have a good ti together, let's have a drink." Ye Long raised his glass and drank with Xu Shaoyuan.
Xu Shaoyuan didn't want to seem stingy and drank with a smile.
"Ye Long, brother." Xu Shaoyuan called out.
Then Ye Dong and Ye Nan also toasted with him.
anwhile, in the hall, hundreds of people watched Huang Zushou, listening to his complaints and the incident.
After a while, Tang Hao said, "Since he's at fault, let's go over and take a look!"
"I also want to see who dares make look this bad." Zhong Ting said, her face burning with anger.
"Hmph! Even if it's the Celestial King today, I'll teach him a lesson." Zhong Ke said angrily.
"Haha! Let's go watch the show." The wealthy onlookers laughed.
"I didn't expect a good show before the gathering even started."
Tang Hao led the way towards Ye Hao's private room.
Compared to Ye Hao and his group's calm deanor, Zhong Ke and Zhong Ting looked as if they had lost a parent.
Tang Hao arrived at Ye Hao's room and asked, "What happened earlier? I think we're all influential people in Yanjing; so things, once explained, can be dismissed, there's no need to make a fuss, right?"
Tang Hao's words made Ye Hao and the others pause their conversation. Xu Shaoyuan lit a cigarette, stood up leisurely, and said with a smile, "Tang Hao, you want to intervene?"
Tang Hao frowned slightly at Xu Shaoyuan's question, feeling sowhat underestimated, but he maintained his composure and smiled, waving his hand, saying, "I didn't an to intervene, but as one of the organizers of this Yanjing youth gathering, I just don't want it to beco unpleasant."
"Haha! Tang's right. I also think it's better to keep a low profile, otherwise it might seem like we're ignoring the organizers." At this mont, another organizer, Sima Lindong, stood up and chid in with a smile.
"So what?" Xu Shaoyuan retorted with a disdainful look at Sima Lindong.
Sima Lindong was montarily infuriated by Xu Shaoyuan's disdain, but considering the Xu Family's background, he held back. Although he was one of the organizers, his status differed from Xu Shaoyuan's.
"I'll make you pay, just because others fear you doesn't an I do, Xu Shaoyuan..." At this mont, another strong young man stepped out of the crowd.
"Wow! That's the Dongfang Family."
"It's Dongfang Xuri."
"It's been a while since Dongfang Xuri appeared. Is he one of the organizers today too?"
The onlookers whispered about the young man who had just appeared, even Ye Hao glanced at him a few more tis.
"Haha, do you think I'm afraid of you?" Xu Shaoyuan looked at Dongfang Xuri without backing down.
Dongfang Xuri's family background was similar to his; both their fathers were vice-chairn of the military committee, with high status and nurous affiliated families. Therefore, Xu Shaoyuan didn't heed Dongfang Xuri's threat at all.
"Alright, alright, today is a pre-New Year gathering of the younger generation, I don't want to see any fighting. Xu Shaoyuan, is this..."
"Xu Shaoyuan, do you think our Zhong Family is afraid of you?" At this mont, Zhong Ke butted in on Tang Hao's words. He knew it was sowhat impolite, but he was too angry, feeling Xu Shaoyuan was too arrogant, not realizing he was being called to account.
Tang Hao, although displeased at being interrupted, wanted to see what Zhong Ke planned to do.
"Not convinced? Want to duel?" Xu Shaoyuan blew smoke in their direction, looking provocatively at Zhong Ke, who was trembling with anger.
"Xu Shaoyuan, damn it, don't push people too far." Zhong Ke said with a gloomy tone, barely containing his anger.
"So what if I push you? Did I hit you? Bully you? Don't bark around like a dog, or I'll make you pay." Xu Shaoyuan responded fiercely.
You can't entirely bla him for being so forceful. He's the pillar of Team A and the leader in Jiepeng. Being in such a high position for so long made him intolerant of questioning, especially from so ordinary young people.
"Ah! You beast, I will tear you apart." Zhong Ting couldn't hold back any longer, especially with the scene of Xu Shaoyuan kicking Huang Zushou still playing in her mind.
Hearing Zhong Ting's words, Xu Shaoyuan's face turned cold instantly...(To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to vote on QiDian (qidian) for recomndation votes and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian to read.)
