Ao Tian rubbed his eyes vigorously, afraid he was seeing things.
What did he see?!
Alizee sat obediently next to Yang Yan, even feeding him and giving him food?
Ao Tian closed his eyes and shook his head vigorously, then opened them again, only to find the sa scene.
At this point, he finally accepted it as reality and sighed heavily.
It's maddening to compare oneself to others!
How on earth did he manage this?
"You guys..."
Ao Tian sat at the dining table, looking at the two of them, wanting to speak but hesitating.
"Hmm?"
Yang Yan and Alizee both looked at him, puzzled.
"What's up?"
Yang Yan asked.
"Uh… nothing, nothing."
Ao Tian shook his head hurriedly.
But as he just lowered his head to take a bite, he couldn't help but raise his head again to ask:
"When did you two get together?"
Yang Yan and Alizee looked a bit awkward.
How to explain this?
We were invited over for dinner, had a drink, and then it just happened?
No, too casual.
"Love at first sight."
Alizee replied nonchalantly, surprisingly in perfect Chinese.
Such an answer directly solved Ao Tian's confusion.
He let out a long "Oh" and then gave Yang Yan a thumbs up, sincerely praising:
"Brother, impressive! I'm really impressed!"
For Huaxia, apart from classical texts that could stump Alizee, traditional things didn't faze her.
"Then I'll be your sister-in-law from now on."
She said with a smile.
"..."
Ao Tian fell silent for a mont.
Then he imdiately changed to a smiling face and respectfully greeted:
"Hello, sister-in-law."
He felt relieved inside.
Thankfully, I almost mistakenly called her "dumb."…
Actually, Ao Tian couldn't really be blad for that.
Because what he was pondering was, if Alizee knew Yang Yan's true identity, would she literally beco a fool.
Thinking of this, Ao Tian felt slightly balanced inside.
Yang Yan, with his left arm around Alizee, looked at Ao Tian and said:
"We're done eating, you eat slowly. We'll head upstairs first!"
The last sentence was ant for Alizee as Yang Yan turned his head to look at her.
"Okay."
Alizee obediently nodded.
"What are you going upstairs for?"
Ao Tian didn't know if he was being silly by asking.
I an, the affectionate couple going upstairs, what's it to him!
It's just that it was broad daylight, and only yesterday...
Yang Yan clearly knew what Ao Tian was thinking, but didn't respond, taking Alizee upstairs.
Alizee naturally had no reason to respond, happily leaning on Yang Yan's shoulder as they went up the stairs.
"What about ?"
Ao Tian sat there pointing at himself, looking dazed.
Unfortunately, no one paid him any attention.
So he could only shake his head helplessly and pout:
"They're family now, I should head back. Alas…"
That sigh was full of unspoken lancholy.
With his mood not so great, Ao Tian mindlessly ate a little, then left feeling a bit depressed.
He didn't even say goodbye to Yang Yan.
In his view, Yang Yan's plan probably succeeded.
Because the plan he had discussed with him before seed to include this.
If he could win over Alizee, it would undoubtedly be the best result for future developnts.
So it seed there wouldn't be much for him to do next.
Since that's the case, he might as well enjoy himself!
Back at his original place, Ao Tian was displeased with the formal wear he was in and ripped it off.
He casually picked out a casual set from a top-tier n's brand.
He wore a light blue shirt on top and black fitted suit pants below.
It made him look clean and sharp, with a distinctive handsoness.
No wonder he was called the Ice Emperor, with a presence that matched his attire perfectly.
Satisfied, he looked at himself in the mirror, sowhat enamored with his own charm.
After about a minute, Ao Tian humd a little tune as he walked out the door.
Bars and so entertainnt venues were places where Ao Tian hung out.
Due to his extraordinary presence and generous spending, most of the socialites frequenting these venues knew Ao Tian was from a prestigious Huaxia family.
Nothing much, just plenty of money.
Driven by wealth, so-called friends inevitably flocked to him.
Ao Tian welcod them all gladly.
All the while knowing, said nicely they were friends, in truth it was mutual advantage.
No matter the motive for approaching him, Ao Tian knew clearly who was who.
Of course, Ao Tian wouldn't waste ti channeling efforts into befriending them.
After all, these locals, with power and connections, could quickly and vastly disseminate behind-the-scenes info.
Born and bred here, naturally more concerned with local happenings.
Among these issues, the recent enigmatic death of Audin in this place beca top gossip in aristocratic circles.
Moreover, the more enforced the secrecy, the livelier the discussion.
Today, again in a private room, surrounded by countless beauties, over ten n clinked glasses, reveling heartily.
Then a small old man with black hair and a white beard suddenly twirled his ticulously styled beard, chuckling as he said:
"You know what? Audin's family took away a stunning woman from Ranyue Hotel this morning."
A middle-aged man beside him imdiately played along by asking:
"Oh? How co we didn't know? Why is that?"
Instantly, everyone focused their attention on the old man, awaiting his next words.
For them, such secrets were the most intriguing.
"Haha! What do you think they took her for?"
The old man started to tantalize them.
A crowd couldn't help but urge:
"Quickly, tell us."
Ao Tian at this mont had his legs crossed, reveling in the attendance of two beauties beside him.
Upon hearing Audin and Ranyue ntioned, his face imdiately scrunched up.
Without any other reason, Ao Tian befriended them not just for leisure but also for insider intel.
Combining work with play had always been his life philosophy.
The na Audin was still fresh in his mind, needless to say.
As for Ranyue Hotel...
Wasn't that the hotel where they stayed with Su Su before?
Ao Tian sensed sothing unusual now.
Seeing the old man still smiling slyly, he imdiately urged impatiently:
"Hurry up, what's going on?"
Ao Tian was naturally aloof, a trait known to these people.
Hearing the impatient voice of this young master from Huaxia, they were all taken aback and looked at him in surprise.
