"I’ll wait for you, for the day when you open your heart, just, don’t let wait too long!" He kissed her forehead gently, his heart filled with tenderness.
As long as he was sure she had feelings for him, he wasn’t afraid of anything.
The next day, they received an invitation to a banquet hosted by Yiren, inviting many high society families. She sent them two invitations, knowing full well that they lived together, yet she sent two.
Clearly, it was deliberate not to see them as one entity.
Third Young Master Jun’s eyes grew cold, and he tore up the invitation fiercely.
"Why tear it up? Since she invited , I must go," Ye Lu snatched it, glancing at the invitation. The provocative aning was so strong, how could she not attend?
So things had to be faced sooner or later. The earlier the pain ca, the sooner it would end.
This banquet was grand and luxurious, showcasing the unparalleled wealth of the Hua family, and further indicated that whoever won the favor of this heiress, becoming her esteed husband, would gain imnse wealth.
And Hua Yiren was beautiful and talented, with an impressive family background, the daughter of the Hua family and the adopted daughter of Ivan Group.
What family wouldn’t want to marry such a woman? She was the perfect candidate for a political marriage.
So, as soon as word got out that she wanted to choose a husband from Eastern families, countless families beca fervently interested, vying for her hand, and mobilized.
This banquet hardly seed like a banquet, but more like a matchmaking feast, a grand event where the princess of the Hua family would select her prince.
And clearly, as soon as many families arrived, they began to compete openly and covertly.
Many young masters dressed sharply and looked vibrant, hoping to catch the Eldest Miss’s attention.
Ye Lu, viewing this prince-selecting spectacle, sneered slightly. These n, attracted by fa, probably hadn’t even t Hua Yiren, knew nothing of her character, but were betting their marriages on wealth and status.
She looked down on these n the most. A truly capable man would never need to rely on a woman to achieve success.
"Lu’er, you’re here too," Old Madam Jun and Jun Guanru appeared in front of them, showing so surprise, with Gu Yan following behind.
Third Young Master Jun’s expression darkened, frowning, "Grandfather, Grandmother, why are you here?"
Ye Lu also looked curiously at the Jun couple and Gu Yan.
Jun Guanru said, "The heiress of the Hua family personally called us, pleading earnestly, inviting us to co. We couldn’t decline, so we ca."
Upon hearing this, Third Young Master Jun’s expression grew even uglier.
A chill crept into Ye Lu’s eyes. Even the Jun couple was invited, what was Yiren trying to do? Even if she couldn’t guess everything, she had a hunch, was Yiren planning to announce sothing before the Jun couple?
It seed Yiren was determined to have Third Young Master Jun.
Her heart grew colder. She wanted to see how this woman would ensure her victory, and also what Third Young Master Jun would do.
Just then, at the entrance to the banquet, another gentleman walked in, with cloudy eyes and a sharp gaze, the elder that had visited Third Young Master Jun at the villa, the one he said was his godfather.
Ye Lu’s premonition grew stronger.
A bone-chilling cold rose from the soles of her feet.
"I see an acquaintance, I’ll go say hello first. Lu’er, stay here with Grandfather and Grandmother," Third Young Master Jun hurried over to his godfather.
Approaching his godfather, who cast a glance from the corner of his eye towards Ye Lu and then at Third Young Master Jun, the old man’s face showed a satisfied look of control.
"Good, you did as I wanted, you brought her as well."
The veins on the back of Third Young Master Jun’s hand, hidden in his sleeve, throbbed faintly.
"King, I know you like that woman, but the interests of the organization are most important. Your union with Hua Yiren will bring us the greatest benefits. As for this woman, if you like her, just keep her on the side. A man who achieves great things always has several lovers, wives, doesn’t he!"
