Jiang Wenshan kept it tight; even now, he hasn’t revealed the identity of his apprentice, and not just him—all present were curious.

Ji Xian spoke and noticed soone not far away; leaning on his cane, he walked over.

The entire Painting Association was bustling with excitent as many took the opportunity to network.

Cheng Jianfeng, accompanied by Shen Xuan holding a wine glass, mingled in the crowd, greeting anyone they t.

"Teacher, who is that person? How co I’ve never seen him before?" Shen Xuan pointed at Ji Xian, who was able to converse and laugh with ease among those significant figures, soone she had never seen before.

Hearing this, Cheng Jianfeng looked over, his voice filled with a hint of reverence, "That’s Old Master Ji, he just returned recently. Don’t be fooled by his amiable appearance; in reality, he’s decisive and swift in action, with the heart of a cold commander."

Because of his return, the power dynamics in Beijing would once again shift. With Old Master Ji revitalizing the family spirit, the Ji Family was no longer what it used to be.

Shen Xuan was sowhat startled, never expecting soone who needed a cane to walk to possess such capability.

It was said that the Ji Family Patriarch had no children, only an adopted child from a young age.

Her fate was indeed good, to be picked up by the Ji Family, transforming from an orphan into the Eldest Miss Ji.

One’s birth was truly important. Her previous perspective was too narrow. Only after experiencing the splendor and power of Beijing did she realize that the Shen Family was nothing in Beijing.

Shen Xuan composed herself and continued to blend into the crowd with Cheng Jianfeng.

"Young Master Lou, what brings you here?" Gu Cong looked at Lou Ting with so surprise. The last ti he appeared at the Piano Association was due to his junior sister’s connection. What or who could possibly bring him out to this banquet today?

Lou Ting had never attended such banquets, and many people at the venue noticed him. Yet, he carried an air of ’keep away from strangers,’ and most people would not dare to approach him, although Gu Cong was one of the few who would.

Lou Ting’s facial features were striking and handso, his character was reserved, and he wore a mocking smile on the corner of his lip, "A friend invited ."

Gu Cong pondered the deeper aning behind those words.

The face of his friend must be quite significant to be able to invite him out.

A commotion ca from the entrance, and everyone turned to look.

They took a sharp breath.

At the entrance, four n and one woman looked like a representative idol group, dazzlingly charming and exceptionally pleasing to the eye.

Each had an extraordinary aura, noble and cold, as if they were royalty.

The assistant beside Jiang Wenshan brightened upon seeing the group at the entrance, imdiately stepping forward to greet her.

"Miss Yun." He also greeted Xiao Chen and the others with respect, saying, "Please follow ."

Yun Yue nodded slightly, glanced at them, and followed the assistant.

All eyes were on Yun Yue’s retreating figure, falling into thought.

The president’s assistant personally attending to her—could she be that apprentice?

Xiao Chen, with his noble and detached gaze, surveyed the crowd and walked towards it, followed closely by Feng Ye and the other two.

Lin Xuanze was also dressed formally today, his well-tailored suit accentuating his tall and mature stature.

Why was he here?

Shen Xuan’s heart skipped a beat. When did he co to Beijing?

And Yun Yue, where was that person taking her just now?

For so reason, she felt a sense of panic as if sothing had slipped out of her control, and this feeling was highly uncomfortable.

Mo Lingwei narrowed her eyes as she stared at Yun Yue’s back. Last ti, her face was half-hidden under the brim of her hat. This ti, without a hat, her features were like a vixen’s, alluring and fascinating—no wonder she had ensnared Xiao Chen.

Ji Ling had always been aware of Yun Yue’s presence. She had secretly arranged for people to investigate her nurous tis but could not even find a single photo. This was the first ti she saw this woman’s face directly.

The woman’s face was exquisitely beautiful; her upturned eyes and brow held an untamable wildness—nine parts cold, with a touch of nonchalant mischief.

Such a woman could completely arouse a man’s desire to conquer; no wonder Xiao Chen would fall for her, to the extent of calling off his engagent with the Ji Family.

He wanted to cancel the engagent, as did the grandfather, so what about this marriage...

Ji Ling’s heart was crazed with jealousy as she simultaneously plotted how to secure this marriage, oblivious to the expression on Ji Maoming’s face beside her.

"Dad, she..." Ji Maoming’s complexion drastically changed, as he walked over to Ji Xian and whispered inquiringly.

That person looked exactly like his younger sister.

How could there be two people so strikingly similar in the world?

His sister had been missing for twenty years, and his father had been devastated by the incident. Could this girl, bearing such a resemblance to his sister, be related to her?

Ji Xian glanced at him, his gaze darkening slightly as he said softly, "Let’s talk about it when we go back. Don’t make a fuss about this."

Ji Maoming’s heart jolted. Did his father know sothing?

He quickly steadied his mind, regained control over his expression, and felt a tingling excitent within.

His brotherly affection for his lost sister was no less than that of his father’s. Her disappearance had been a huge blow to him as well.

If this young girl was indeed related to his sister...

Mrs. Ji noticed his expression and asked with so surprise, "What’s wrong?"

"Nothing." Ji Maoming shook his head and did not ntion it to her.

She had married into the Ji family after his sister’s disappearance and had never t her, naturally, she didn’t make the connection between the two.

However, she was aware of the importance of the matter: his sister’s mysterious disappearance had mobilized the entire Ji family’s power, even enlisting the help of the Four Major Families, yet she had not been found. It was as if an invisible hand was controlling everything from behind the scenes.

If that girl was indeed related to his sister, it definitely couldn’t be publicized, for fear that soone might harm her again.

Ji Xian narrowed his eyes in thought for a mont, then walked toward Xiao Chen.

Ji Maoming quickly followed, while Ji Ling snapped back to reality and, feeling tense, followed them toward where Xiao Chen was.

"Young Master Xiao." Ji Xian looked at him with slightly narrowed eyes, his gaze austere and cold, laden with a hint of hostility.

Xiao Chen’s brows furrowed slightly, and a fleeting glint passed through his deep-set eyes as he parted his thin lips, "Mr. Ji, do you need sothing?"

He felt hostility from him?

Why?

It felt strangely inexplicable. Was it because he had heard about the desire to cancel the engagent?

Feng Ye and Jiang Qi watched his stance, and their hearts skipped a beat.

With Mr. Ji’s commanding presence, was he here to demand accountability?

The man before them was an even more formidable figure than their grandfathers, and they stood behind him, not daring to interject.

After a pause, Ji Xian chuckled, his laugh like the sun in midwinter, devoid of warmth.

He slowly began, with an intimidating manner, "I heard you’ve taken a fancy to a woman of unknown origin, Young Master Xiao. Could it be that you’ve forgotten your engagent to the Ji family?"

Ji Ling arrived just in ti to hear this and felt a surge of joy.

What did grandfather an by this?

Did he no longer want to cancel the engagent?

She lifted her gaze, holding her breath as she observed Xiao Chen’s deanor. The man’s features were deep and complex, hard to read as he stood there proudly. Despite facing her grandfather’s questioning, his composure remained, cool and unflustered.

Her heart thumped wildly; she had no idea just how charismatic he was, having secretly adored him for many years.

Lin Xuanze watched his back, puzzled by the old man’s words.

Brother Chen had an engagent and was also involved with his sister?
