Inside the Liu Family Villa.
Liu Xiangyang and his wife, together with his elder brother Liu Yongyuan's family of three and prospective son-in-law Yin Zhiming, were seated around the sofa.
"Xiangyang, if this marriage arrangent works out, you'll have to look out for our family more!" Chen Jin said with a full-faced smile.
It couldn't be helped, under soone's roof, Chen Jin's whole family depended on Liu Xiangyang for their livelihood, naturally leading to their subservient flattery.
Sotis, Chen Jin felt stifled, her eyes flicking resentfully toward a simple and honest middle-aged man sitting nearby.
As part of the Liu family clan, she couldn't help feeling inferior for choosing a useless husband and having to depend on her younger brother.
"Hehe, don't worry, we should actually be thanking your Zhiming for this; otherwise, Yu Qiong wouldn't have had such luck!" Li Xiangyang said cheerfully, clearly in a good mood.
Beside them, Yin Zhiming gave a light laugh and modestly said, "It's what I should do; I'm just worried that Yu Qiong's standards are too high and she won't accept soone like Young Master Ji!"
"To co across soone as outstanding as Ji Xingwen isn't easy!" Chen Jin's daughter, Liu Yuyan, chid in.
"Xiangyang, aren't your enemies from Ice City? The Ji Family is also a big na there, so we might have to rely on Young Master Ji for this matter!" Liu Yongyuan mused from the side.
While they were talking, the doorbell rang.
"Speaking of the devil, it must be Young Master Ji!" Yin Zhiming's eyes lit up, and he imdiately got up to open the door.
This guy was under Young Master Ji's command. If this connection could be established, it would undoubtedly boost his career.
"Young Master Ji, we've been waiting for you!" Yin Zhiming greeted with a smile as he opened the door.
The people inside all stood up to look, seeing a young man in a suit enter, his deanor imposing, his appearance distinguished, and his charm exceptional.
"It must be Xingwen, wonderful, wonderful, please have a seat!" Liu Xiangyang, experienced in assessing people, was quite satisfied with his initial impression.
Liu Xiangyang's wife, Ning Xinlan, also scrutinized the young man approvingly, nodding to herself, finding no fault in his appearance.
"Young Ji, I hear your family carries so weight in Ice City, and you do quite well in business!" Liu Xiangyang inquired with implied depth.
Although Yin Zhiming had painted a rosy picture, Liu Xiangyang needed to see for himself, trusting his own eyes over hearsay!
Upon hearing this, Ji Xingwen straightened his expression, determined to win over his potential father-in-law and mother-in-law with this visit.
Liu Yuqiong, whom Yin Zhiming had introduced to him secretly before, greatly pleased him, and just thinking of her made his heart race and his head spin.
"I heard that uncle had an enemy from the past who's been causing trouble, coming from Ice City?" Ji Xingwen brought it up directly.
He had heard about this issue from Yin Zhiming, and the Liu family was quite troubled by it, secretly worrying.
Resolving this issue would ensure Liu Xiangyang's support regarding his daughter!
"Hmm, there were so past complications, the man's na is Lu Feichen, have you heard of him?" Liu Xiangyang asked, his eyes eager.
Ji Xingwen searched his mory instantly.
Being a prominent family in Ice City, he generally knew of anyone with a reputation.
But he had no recollection of the man Liu Xiangyang ntioned, which made him feel relieved.
Everyone in the villa focused their attention on him, waiting for his response.
Ji Xingwen smiled slightly, "Uncle Liu, don't worry, with handling it, anything in Ice City is a small matter for the Ji Family!"
Everyone was inwardly shocked by his confident assertion, as such bold words couldn't be uttered without substantial backing!
Liu Xiangyang's view of Ji Xingwen changed instantly, his esteem rising, feeling more reassured about his nesis!
"Young Ji, it's troubleso for you on our first eting!" Liu Xiangyang said politely, in high spirits.
"Hehe, Uncle, you're too kind, it's just a small effort.
Don't laugh, Uncle, but after being introduced by Zhiming and eting Yuqiong once, she never contacted first, which had worried!" Ji Xingwen confessed nervously.
He had confidently guaranteed the resolution of the Liu family's problem, yet he also needed to understand Liu Xiangyang's stance on his daughter.
"Hehe, a man of your caliber, Yu Qiong couldn't possibly disagree. She's been quite busy lately; you should be a bit more proactive.
Once this trouble is settled, I'll make sure your marriage arrangent is fixed!" Liu Xiangyang decisively concluded.
Ji Xingwen imdiately showed a trace of excitent, now having Liu Xiangyang's word, his relationship with Liu Yuqiong was nearly guaranteed!
Even if Liu Yuqiong disagreed, it wouldn't change much.
"By the way, why isn't Yuqiong at ho?" Ji Xingwen looked around curiously, his address growing more affectionate.
"Hehe, because of the recent family issues, she's been quite troubled, so she went out to find a bodyguard or sothing!" Ning Xinlan said with a wry smile from the side.
Hearing this, everyone laughed, wondering how capable could a bodyguard be, at most like a king of soldiers?
Did they think he was a Jin Yong-novel hero like Xiao Feng, able to "Subdue Dragon" and "Sweep Thousands of Troops" with a single move?
Liu Yuyan couldn't help but laugh, "This cousin of mine has always been wild, mixing with all sorts of people, which must be amusing for Young Master Ji!"
"Hehe, don't worry, with , Ji Xingwen here, no one will dare touch a single hair on Yuqiong!" Ji Xingwen boasted confidently.
Just then, a crisp voice ca from outside, "Dad, Mom, I'm back!"
Everyone turned to look, and as the voice fell, a striking figure appeared at the door, none other than Liu Yuqiong.
However, when they saw her walking in holding hands with an unfamiliar boy, everyone was shocked.
Especially Ji Xingwen, who, upon seeing Ling Fan following behind Liu Yuqiong and their intertwined hands, his face instantly darkened!
