“Don’t joke around, Young Master Linhan. There’s no reason we shouldn’t let her in now that you’ve spoken. Miss, I’m really sorry. We never met you and didn’t know your identity. If we knew, we would’ve let you in. Please enter.”
Shen Qi stood still and looked at Ye Linhan’s back worriedly. She didn’t move a little.
Ye Linhan turned around and looked at her with a warm but pale and weak smile.
“What are you waiting for? The party will end if you keep standing there.”
“You…” Shen Qi was still worried about him.
“I’ll leave after I watch you go in.”
“Then, you have to keep your promise!” Shen Qi gritted her teeth and stepped forward. She turned around to look at Ye Linhan once again when she reached the door.
He still had the same gentle gaze and indifferent smile hanging on his face. He looked at her gently and spoke as he saw her turned around. “Go, don’t turn back.”
Shen Qi was extremely upset but still turned her head around and walked in.
Ye Linhan just watched her back until she vanished from his sight. He couldn’t hold it anymore and coughed. His body then fell forward.
“Young Master Linhan, are you okay? Oh my God, why are you so badly injured?” The people next to him immediately went forward to help him.
“It’s nothing.” Ye Linhan coughed a little and gently pushed them away.
He didn’t like having close contact with these people.
“Your injuries seem to be serious. I’ll get someone to send you to the hospital.”
“No need.” Ye Linhan gently shook his head. He figured that the woman inside might still meet some difficulties, so it was probably better for him to stay. He probably wouldn’t feel at ease if he didn’t watch her leave with Ye Moxuan tonight.
…
Shen Qi realized that it was crowded when she walked in, and there was a flight of steep stairs she had to walk down. Her dress was a little long, so she had to hold it as she walked down.
But everyone was moving around, and there were many tables. Shen Qi couldn’t see Ye Moxuan at all.
Where can I find him?
After some thought, Shen Qi came up with an idea.
According to Ye Moxuan’s status in North City, he would be the focus of the party if he was here today. Therefore, she just had to find him in the most crowded area.
Thinking so, Shen Qi was so happy that she was going to cry tears of joy. She scanned around and quickly squeezed through the place with the largest crowd.
She looked like a mess, and most people who saw her dodged her with a look of disgust. They then stared at her with a strange gaze.
“Who is this? What happened to her? How did she sneak in?”
“I’ve never seen her before. She looks unfamiliar. Whose daughter is it? She looked quite pretty.”
“Haha, let’s go take a look.”
Shen Qi was about to move forward when two men suddenly blocked her way. They were both holding a glass of cocktail and smiling flirtatiously. “Hey, gorgeous. Do we have the honor to invite you for a dance?”
“I’m sorry. I’m looking for someone.” Shen Qi nodded at them and walked past them. However, the two of them followed her. “Gorgeous, who are you looking for? Tell us and maybe we can help you.”
“Right. It’s okay if you don’t have the time for a dance. We can exchange our contact details and get to know each other. Just consider it as you’re making a new friend, okay?”
“I’m sorry. I really am in a hurry,” Shen Qi replied.
One of the men had already taken his phone out. “I know, I know. Come on, give me your number, and you can leave.”
“No.” Shen Qi stared at him coldly. “Mister, please don’t force me.”
The man’s expression darkened instantly when he heard what she had said.
“What did you say? We are all here for the party, and none of us is worse than you. Besides, what is wrong with making new friends?”
“Nothing wrong, but I’ve mentioned that I’m in a hurry and am looking for someone, haven’t I? Can you go away now?”
“Looking for someone? Tell us who you are looking for? Are you really looking for someone, or are you just making up an excuse?”
“Ye Moxuan!”
At the next moment, Shen Qi blurted out a name.
At first, the two of them were startled and didn’t respond until a while later. “Y-You… What did you say? Who was it?”
“My husband, Ye Moxuan. Do you know him? Can you bring me to him?” Shen Qi looked at that person as she asked. She knew that they wouldn’t let her go if she didn’t do something.
She didn’t have much time to joke around with them.
‘Pfft! Did You just say that Ye Moxuan is your husband? A-Are you joking?”
Although they looked like they didn’t believe it, it was obvious that their expression had changed. Ye Moxuan was a unique existence. Although many people despised that he was a handicapped, no one could beat him in business.
Lu Xunchang was really strong in the business world in the past, and no one had the courage to provoke him. However, he provoked Ye Moxuan for some reason some time later and was handicapped by Ye Moxuan.
Besides, Lu Group disappeared without a trace overnight.
Therefore, there was a saying in their circle that provoking Ye Moxuan was the same as messing with a tiger. No one would dare to do such a thing, or else their future would be doomed.
“Follow me if you want to know whether or not I was joking.”
With that, Shen Qi walked past them. The two men didn’t dare to follow. They felt that no one would have the courage to make such a joke. After all, it was about Ye Moxuan’s marriage, and no woman would have the courage to lie. Besides, the woman’s aura was quite overwhelming, and it was probably true.
“Could it be that she is the girl from the Shen family who got married to Ye Moxuan?”
“Pfft! Wasn’t that just an arranged marriage? Besides, a handicap getting married is just a joke. What can he do? Sigh, it’s a pity for that beautiful lady.”
“Tsk, tsk! He has his own luck as a handicapped. Although he is handicapped, he got married to a gorgeous girl.”
Shen Qi turned around to take a glance after walking some distance away. She was relieved that they didn’t follow her after she threatened them.
Phew!
She sighed in relief and quickly moved forward. Shen Qi finally saw a familiar figure when she got to the front.
It was Xiao Su!
“Assistant Xiao!”
Shen Qi couldn’t hold back and called out to him out loud.
Xiao Su, who was standing on the stage, was stunned. He seemed to have heard someone calling out to him, and that voice sounded familiar. This, he turned to look at the direction of the voice.
When he saw who it was, Xiao Su jumped in fright.
His face changed, and he almost couldn’t refrain himself. He soon calmed down as he realized that he was still on stage. He quickly got down from the side and brought her away.
Shen Qi was dragged out by him, but she kept looking around to find the person she was looking for.
“Where is Ye Moxuan?”
