Lin Xiaoruan had a sad look on her face and was thinking about seeking a marriage for her family. Suddenly she heard a commotion coming from behind, so she looked back, but this sight made her expression freeze immediately.
Her eyes widened with disbelief as she stared at the edge of the scene. To be precise, it was a person she wanted to meet again in her dreams, but she never expected that she would be here at Jinling Academy of Arts.
Saw that familiar indifferent face.
"Is it him?"
She murmured softly, her voice trembling slightly. She thought she had seen it wrong, but after repeated confirmations, she realized that this was not her illusion. That person was sitting there at the moment, still looking like a cloud.
light expression.
"Xiao Ruan, please take care of Gu Mengyao who has already taken the stage and the event is about to begin!"
Next to Lin Xiaoruan, a cold lady wearing ol's clothes frowned slightly.
"Xiao Ruan, I know you don't want to marry. Xu Bochun's accidental death has given you a chance to be free, but our Lin family really can't hold on any longer!"
"The group is facing a funding gap. If this problem is not solved within three days, Lin's Group will completely declare bankruptcy. You don't want your bedridden grandfather to see the industry he has worked so hard to decline like this, right?"
"All of this can only depend on you!"
The woman's name is Lin Xiaoshu. Although her surname is Lin, she is not a direct descendant of Lin Xiaoruan. She is Lin Xiaoruan's cousin. Her father is the son-in-law of the Jinling Lin family.
Lin Xiaoshu has lived with Lin Xiaoruan since she was a child. The two are like sisters. She is well aware of Lin Xiaoruan's difficulties and reluctance. However, as a member of the Lin family, she is more aware of the ups and downs of the family business, so she accepts the advice of her elders in the family.
Please come and accompany Lin Xiaoruan to seek a marriage partner.
She saw that Lin Xiaoruan looked distracted, and then she spoke to remind him.
The moment she finished speaking, Lin Xiaoruan suddenly stood up from her seat, passed directly through the guest seats and VIP seats, and ran towards the edge of the scene.
Lin Xiaoshu was immediately startled and shocked. Ever since she met Lin Xiaoruan, Lin Xiaoruan always treated everything with a non-arrogant attitude. This was the first time she had seen such an anxious Lin Xiaoruan.
At the edge of the scene, Ye Chen's eyes were indifferent, and invisible murderous intent instantly filled the entire scene, causing the surrounding temperature to drop sharply.
Xu Changping's palms trembled and his crutches almost fell to the ground. He never thought that this young man who looked plain and calm could be so powerful. Even he, an ancient and experienced old man, was shocked.
He calmed down and his expression became solemn.
"Who are you?"
Xu Changping is in charge of the Xu family and holds up half of the sky of the Xu family. His ability to recognize people and objects is naturally not weak. Although Ye Chen was not eye-catching before, the powerful aura that Ye Chen exuded inadvertently made him understand instantly.
,The person in front of me is by no means an ordinary person.
"Warrior?"
A word flashed in his mind, making his expression even more ugly.
"You don't deserve to know who I am!"
"I've said enough today. If you want your Xu family to continue its incense, you have only one choice!"
Ye Chen didn't even look at Xu Changping, and his voice was as cold as a knife.
There was an uproar in the surrounding area. No one had thought that Ye Chen would still have such an attitude when facing Xu Changping, and even said such treacherous words as "the Xu family has no heirs".
There are three kinds of unfilial piety, the worst is not having an heir! As we all know, the most taboo thing for a powerful family is "having no heir". Ye Chen talks about it. This is no longer an offense to the Xu family, but a threat and provocation.
.
Yinyin's head was filled with buzzing, and she knew very well that if Ye Chen said these words, not to mention her, even if Gu Mengyao personally showed up to mediate, the Xu family would never give up.
Only Xiao Wenyue, who was next to her, changed her eyes slightly and looked deeply at Ye Chen.
With her keen mind, she has noticed that Ye Chen at this moment is completely different from the person he was ten minutes ago. Now Ye Chen has a manic aura all over his body, and his attitude and tone of voice are also different.
Change accordingly.
She hugged Ye Chen's arm and asked with concern: "Achen, what's wrong with you?"
"The way you look now is a little different from you!"
The moment her palm touched Ye Chen's arm, she was shocked to find that Ye Chen's entire arm was trembling slightly.
Ye Chen turned his head and looked at her, with a smile on his lips and a sharp light in his eyes.
"I'm fine, just a little excited!"
"excited?"
Xiao Wenyue didn't know why and was about to ask, but Xu Boran next to her became angry and made a sound.
"Boy, how brave are you to say that my Xu family has no heirs?"
"No matter who you are, I will prevent you from leaving Jinling today!"
He had been afraid because he could not figure out Ye Chen's identity before and had been tolerant, but now Ye Chen's words made him unable to control the anger in his heart.
He waved his hand and pointed at the dozen or so bodyguards behind Xu Changping.
"You all, come to me. Beat them to death or maim them. I will be responsible for them!"
He no longer wants to care about Ye Chen's identity, he just wants to completely crush this arrogant man who insulted the Xu family.
Xu Changping had a cold face and did not stop him. He knew that Ye Chen might be a warrior who was different from ordinary people, but there were also differences in strength and weakness among warriors. How capable would a man of Ye Chen's age be if he was stretched to death?
?
They are just better than ordinary people! These bodyguards of his are all officially employed by the security company. Before retiring, they were the kings of soldiers in various regional troops, and they have the right to hold guns. If they want to deal with Ye Chen, aren't they easy to capture?
Ye Chen's words of "no heirs" touched the heart of him, the helmsman of the Xu family. In addition, Xu Bochun died unexpectedly and tragically not long ago. He no longer wanted to hold anything back. He just wanted to let Ye Chen, an arrogant junior, for the insult.
The Xu family paid the price.
Upon hearing this, more than a dozen bodyguards were about to step forward. At this moment, a scolding sound came from the side.
"Who dares to take action?"
Everyone turned around and saw the Princess of the Lin family standing in the clouds. She had already stood in the field at some point, looking coldly at everyone in the Xu family.
"Lin Xiaoruan?"
Many people exclaimed in surprise. They didn't know why Lin Xiaoruan suddenly appeared, and judging from her tone, it seemed that she was still defending Ye Chen?
"Xiao Ruan, what are you..." Xu Boran looked at Lin Xiaoruan with a smile, but Lin Xiaoruan ignored him and walked straight past him and stood in front of the bench.
She and Ye Chen looked at each other, and their faces, originally filled with melancholy, suddenly blossomed into smiles, like flowers blooming.
"Jinling is where I was born and raised. Why didn't you say anything to me when you came here?"
There was no hint of the pride of the Princess of the Lin family in her words, but rather like a naughty little girl, with a bit of coquettishness, which made everyone around her look stunned.
Has the Lin family princess, known as the Iceberg Goddess, ever had such a gentle and touching side?
Ye Chen looked at Lin Xiaoruan and gave her a heartwarming smile.
"I came in a hurry, and I saw that you were attending an event, so I didn't want to disturb you!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiaoruan put away some of his naughtiness, his eyes were as gentle as water, and he said softly: "Do you not want to disturb me, or do you not plan to see me at all?"
Only then did the people next to him realize that Lin Xiaoruan's attitude and tone towards Ye Chen were exactly that of a person who has unrequited love, feeling resentment and sorrow for the person he loves.
Ye Chen smiled slightly and shook his head.
"How could it be possible? I planned to invite you to have dinner with me after the event!"
After saying this, Ye Chen slowly stood up and looked towards the sky in the distance.
"It's just that I'm afraid the time to have dinner and reminisce with you will be postponed!"
Lin Xiaoruan didn't know what he meant. He looked in the direction Ye Chen was looking and saw a flash of blood in the distant sky! Xiao Wenyue also noticed something strange in the distant sky. She looked back at Ye Chen and immediately
Suddenly, I realized why Ye Chen was so excited.
She knew that Ye Chen was about to face an opponent, an unprecedented opponent who was worthy of Ye Chen to abandon all distracting thoughts and fight with all his strength!
