Just as Ye Tianfan was puzzled, Ren Ningyue slightly raised the corner of her mouth, conjuring a smile, and said, "Is that pretty woman your friend over there? She seems to be in trouble; do you want to go over and take a look?"
Hearing Ren Ningyue's words, Ye Tianfan hurriedly turned to look. He saw a commotion erupting in the ballroom, with everyone's gaze fixed on the center. At that mont, Qin Ruong was standing there with a frosty expression, and standing opposite her was none other than Long Yuqing!
As the saying goes, enemies eting face-to-face are especially intense. The decades-long grudge between the Long Family and the Qin Family wasn't sothing that could be explained in a few words. When the two won t, it was naturally a clash of titans, filled with tension!
Seeing this scene, Ye Tianfan suddenly felt a headache. He had no interest in the grudge between the Long Family and the Qin Family, nor did he wish to get involved. After all, the dispute between the two families was a business battle, not a life-and-death feud. Regardless of who lost or won, it was quite normal; at most, it would just be a matter of financial loss or bankruptcy. In the economic landscape of China, there's no eternal winner, nor would there be an eternal loser.
The saying "thirty years of the east river, thirty years of the west river, the feng shui turns" cos to mind. Perhaps many are watching how the Long Family rises or how the Qin Family falls, but Ye Tianfan isn't interested in these things. In his eyes, he's only interested in beautiful won, especially the top-tier stunning beauties!
In Jiangzhou City, there are two top-tier stunning beauties — Long Family's Yuqing and Qin Family's Ruong! These two goddesses have captivated countless n, who dream of tasting their beauty.
To win the heart of either woman would be life's greatest reward, but just at this mont, both won's gazes unexpectedly landed on one person.
Ye Tianfan!
"Brother Tianfan, long ti no see." Long Yuqing's face instantly brightened with a breathtakingly beautiful smile as she wore a white flowing gown, gracefully walking toward Ye Tianfan.
Long Yuqing's charming voice instantly stirred the entire audience, as if the entire ballroom erupted in whispers.
Although Long Yuqing lived in Jiangzhou City, her reputation had long been widespread. She was known as the famous ice beauty, with thods extrely ruthless, even surpassing the past patriarch of the Long Family!
Although Qin Ruong and Long Yuqing were known as Jiangzhou City's top beauties, people were more intrigued by Long Yuqing. This wasn't because Long Yuqing was more beautiful than Qin Ruong, but because she was more mysterious!
Qin Ruong, being the apple of the Qin Family's eye, was a public figure often seen in Jiangzhou City, but Long Yuqing was different! Although the public knew of Long Yuqing's beauty, very few had seen her because she rarely appeared in public. The chance to witness her beauty at Mr. Fang's charity ball was indeed a rare opportunity. Once Long Yuqing saw Ye Tianfan, her cold and aloof deanor vanished, replaced by that charming voice, instantly shattering the admiration in the hearts of all present n!
At this mont, however, Ye Tianfan was not feeling pleasant. Long Yuqing's call almost instantly made Ye Tianfan the focal point of everyone's attention!
The envious and hateful glances around him seed like they could tear Ye Tianfan to pieces!
Had it not been for the setting, soone might have already jumped out to criticize Ye Tianfan!
"Miss Long, long ti no see." Ye Tianfan furrowed his brows slightly, glancing at Long Yuqing. Long Yuqing, with a touch of makeup, had eyes lined with soft enchantnt that outlined her translucent phoenix eyes, making them exceptionally alluring, especially with her flirtatious gaze.
As Long Yuqing walked slowly to him, Ye Tianfan instinctively glanced at Qin Ruong. At a ti when Long Yuqing was presenting an ambiguous connection with him, what would Qin Ruong think?
If Ye Tianfan flirted with another woman in front of Qin Ruong, it might just be to provoke Qin Ruong, without any sense of guilt. But if it was Long Yuqing! That was different!
Long Yuqing was the head of the Long Group! The Qin Family's arch-enemy! Flirting with her in front of Qin Ruong wasn't just provoking Qin Ruong; it was hurting her—a complete scoundrel using emotions to wound Qin Ruong!
Hurting a woman who loved him for three years and was determined to marry him!
Ye Tianfan did not want to do that; although he did not want to fulfill that marriage contract, he also did not want to hurt Qin Ruong.
But unfortunately, at this mont, under these circumstances, the saying goes: I do not kill Boren, yet Boren dies because of !
No matter how Ye Tianfan reacted now, Long Yuqing's ambiguous tone toward him had already beco an invisible knife, suddenly piercing a hole in Qin Ruong's heart, the cold wind instantly flooding in!
When Huang Xiaorou publicly declared her love for Ye Tianfan before, Qin Ruong was angry, but not heartbroken. But now it was different; this ti it was Long Yuqing!
This ti, Qin Ruong truly tasted what it felt like to have a heartache!
Qin Ruong's delicate body was trembling slightly, her face turning extrely pale. Her lower lip was now bloodied, adding a touch of desolation to her originally fiery red lips.
Everyone has a breaking point, and Qin Ruong is no exception! When others flirt with Ye Tianfan, Qin Ruong might endure to so extent, as long as nothing substantial happens, she could even turn a blind eye. But with Long Yuqing, that wouldn't work!
Yet Long Yuqing didn't think so; Qin Ruong's reaction and display were exactly what Long Yuqing wanted!
It's undeniable that Long Yuqing's thods were much sharper than Qin Ruong's! By doing this, she aid to sever the relationship between Qin Ruong and Ye Tianfan! Just as Long Yuqing previously stated, the sixty-year comrcial battle between the Long Family and the Qin Family would begin with Ye Tianfan! And this is precisely what Long Yuqing intended to do!
"Brother Tianfan, may I invite you to a dance?" Long Yuqing, her face tinged like a peach blossom, with a soft smile lingering at the corner of her mouth, asked as she gazed at Ye Tianfan, with her peripheral vision still catching a glimpse of Qin Ruong. The more Qin Ruong felt hurt, the happier Long Yuqing beca! She not only wanted to topple the Qin Group but also every mber of the Qin Family! Qin Ruong was just the beginning; Long Yuqing's bigger target was Elder Qin!
Just as Elder Qin worried, Long Yuqing, with her ruthless thods, was indeed not an easy woman to deal with!
Faced with Long Yuqing's invitation, Ye Tianfan's mouth curled into a kind of smile-not-smile expression. If Qin Ruong weren't present today, Ye Tianfan might have really danced with Long Yuqing, but under the current circumstances, it wasn't possible!
If he accepted the dance, where would that leave Qin Ruong?
A man can be bad, can be unscrupulous, but should never be despicable! A woman can be abandoned, but should be left gracefully, letting her willingly accept it—that is greatness!
One can hurt others, but it's best not to hurt a woman's heart! Especially a woman in love with you. If you wound her heart, her love is as deep as her hate will be long! Love and hate are intertwined in such a manner!
Ye Tianfan glanced at Long Yuqing with indifference and said, "Sorry, I would love to dance with Miss Long, but before you, soone else already extended an invitation to ."
