Before Yin Yuerong could say anything else, Si Yehan icily said, “Don’t let me see a woman appear within three feet of my house again.”

Yin Yuerong didn’t expect her son to be so ungrateful of her efforts. “You! Good! Great! You even look down on the daughter of the vice president—what a big appetite you have! I’d like to see how long you can last! Ah-Jiu, remember what I’m saying today. You’ll regret this one day!”

After saying that, Yin Yuerong angrily stomped away in her high heels. She was utterly disappointed in this son of hers now.

On the other side, Qin Xiyuan was akin to the sun surrounded by a myriad of planets—nearly everyone spiraled around her.

Today, Qin Xiyuan wore a beaded, dark-blue fishtail gown, giving her a sparkly appearance, and the high-end cut complimented her alluring figure. She was dazzling amidst the crowd and undoubtedly became the focus of the banquet.

In addition, she had the handsome and scholarly Yin Heng standing next to her. The good-looking couple further caught everyone’s attention.

“Miss Qin is seriously too beautiful! No wonder she’s the most beautiful woman in Tianshui City! I don’t think we can find anyone prettier than our Miss Qin in all of the Twelve Independent States!”

“Of course! Who can compare to Yuanyuan in terms of looks, talent, and family background?!”

“I’m seriously jealous of Yin Heng!”

Yin Heng adoringly looked at Qin Xiyuan and gently said, “Yuanyuan is the most beautiful and perfect girl I’ve ever seen. I consider myself most fortunate for receiving her favor.”

Several higher-ups grouped together with wine glasses in hand, furiously conversing.

“I didn’t expect that lad, Yin Heng, to have gotten there first! Yin Heng is finally flushed with success tonight!”

“Someone will probably be sad though…”

“Of course. Getting his woman stolen by his brother—who wouldn’t be hurt if this happened to them?”

In the corner, Yu Shao looked at Qin Xiyuan and Yin Heng, his tone serious as he said, “I didn’t expect Miss Qin to actually get together with Yin Heng… This way, the matter will probably be tricky.”

He actually didn’t agree with Si Yehan’s method in private, but it wasn’t his place to say anything as Si Yehan’s subordinate.

Lin Que scowled. “Isn’t Qin Xiyuan, that woman, seriously too good at pretending? It was clearly Ninth Brother who didn’t take a liking to her, but now, she’s making it sound like she was the one who abandoned Ninth Brother! Also, Yin Heng! Just look at his triumphant face!”

“Was the Director’s visit to the President two days ago successful?” Yu Shao asked.

Lin Que shook his head. “I also don’t know what happened there… However, Ninth Brother’s attitude was a little strange when he returned…”

Yu Shao felt a pounding headache. “I said before that Qin Xiyuan was too important…”

This current situation was extremely disadvantageous for them.

On the banquet hall’s balcony:

He Lianjue was on a call with Ye Wanwan. “Good daughter, why aren’t you here yet? Don’t tell me you’re going back on your word! Don’t blame me for not telling you, but Qin Xiyuan and Yin Heng came together today! They’re clearly humiliating your man publicly! Right now, all the ignorant people are gleefully enjoying a good show…”

On the other end of the phone, Ye Wanwan chuckled lightly. “It’s easy to enjoy a good show! There’s a better show coming up.”

At the same time, inside the dressing room that Medusa prepared for Ye Wanwan:

All the make-up artists and stylists were rooted in their spots as they stared at the girl in front of them.

Ye Wanwan gently flicked the bottom of her dress and peered up. “Senior Sister, is this okay?”
