Seeing that the old master had sealed the mouths of Zhao Shuncheng and the others with a single sentence, while Zhao Youlin was amused, he seemed to recall something. He smiled confusedly at the old master. “Who said back then that if Joy and I stayed outside, there would be too many people watching us and we wouldn't have peace. And now that you have attracted so much jealousy on us, it feels even more dangerous to stay in the main residence. I think it's better if I don't move back here.”
The old master seemed to have anticipated that Zhao Youlin would say that. He replied with a smile, “My dear granddaughter, stop acting like a child. If you stay in the main residence, you will be under my protection. If you stay outside, the big wolves out there will devour you and my precious little great-grandson. So, you have to move back here.”
“…”
Hell. Who's acting like a kid here? He is a childish one, his whole family is a childish one.
Zhao Youlin laughed furiously. This old master had made a huge spider web just to trap him, which he now could not avoid.
His eyes pierced Old Master Zhao like a knife. If the gaze could kill, the old master would have already died by now.
Old Master Zhao received a sharp glare fired by Zhao Youlin. The smile on his face was getting curious.
Zhao Youlin could imagine that if this old master had a fox tail behind him, he would have been wobbling merrily at this moment.
“My dear grandson, if you have time to fight with me, why don't you think about how you will deal with the youths there?”
"What?" Zhao Youlin was caught off guard. Before he could ask what he was talking about, the old master had already walked down quickly.
And at that moment, Uncle Zhao, who had been standing around, took a few steps forward and said to Zhao Youlin with a smile, “First Lady, the banquet is about to begin. As the second hostess beside Madam Yarong, please select a man to dance the opening dance with you."
Zhao Youlin took a long time to come. He turned around to look at the old master who had already descended. Upon seeing the meaningful smile on the old master's face, his face darkened.
After seeing Mu Tingfeng among the crowd and the not far man who looked like his neighbor upstairs, Zhao Youlin's expression turned even more grim.
Great, this is just great. The bloody old master actually put him in another difficult place! If he knew this would happen, he would not have agreed to come to this terrible party even if it meant that the circumstances between them could be bad.
Unfortunately, no one can go back in time. Now that the crowd was watching him, Zhao Youlin was stuck in an impossible position. All he could do was swallow the bitter pill silently and follow it. He walked slowly down the stairs.
When Mu Tingfeng saw Zhao Youlin walking down the stairs, without thinking about it, her body had already moved.
But things did not go as he expected. He had just taken a few steps forward when a figure suddenly appeared from the side. The figure turned out to be Zhao Youxi, who had just declared her love in public not too long ago.
When Zhao Youxi saw Mu Tingfeng move, she immediately rushed over and stopped in front of her. He offered excitedly, “Young Master Mu, the banquet will start soon. May I have honor ... "
"Surge!"
"What?"
With a grim face, Mu Tingfeng firmly swept Zhao Yuxi aside. He took a step and wanted to continue, but he had already missed the opportunity because he was held back by Zhao Youxi for a moment. Someone else has defeated him.
“Dear lady, I am the third young master of the Ye family in Shalnork, Ye Yan. May I have the honor of dancing with you, Young Miss Zhao?”
Zhao Youlin looked at the familiar young man who came to her in time as she went down the last stairs. His eyes are a little sharp.
The third young master of the Ye family? Ye Family? One of the four most powerful families in Zelford, that Ye Family? Although he knew that the identity of this young man was not simple, he did not expect him to have such a complicated background!
At that moment, Mu Tingfeng, who had lost her chance, stopped her steps. He stared intently at the man and woman under the stairs, as his right hand clenched tightly involuntarily.
Zhao Youxi was pushed back by Mu Tingfeng. After she managed to stabilize herself, she saw Mu Tingfeng staring abstractly at Zhao Youlin.
Her tiny face that could be said to be beautiful, instantly twisted. Even his eyes were shrouded by a terrifying jealousy and vengeance.
Seeing Ye Yan's bewitching eyes that were glittering with steel, Zhao Youlin opened her mouth and almost agreed to her offer, until she suddenly felt a chill on her back.
Shivering, Zhao Youlin looked in a certain direction with awareness and happened to meet with Mu Tingfeng's expressionless face.
Zhao Youlin seemed to recall something as she frowned slightly. He raised his head and observed the room.
Upon seeing someone among the crowd, who was curled up and seemed ready to flee at any moment, a sad smile flashed across his eyes. He turned to Ye Yan and said, “Young Master Ye Yan, forgive me. Before coming to this dance, I had already promised someone that I would hand over my first dance to him. If you don't mind ..."
There are so many beautiful women today, you can choose another one to dance with you. Zhao Youlin was about to say that, but unfortunately, she was interrupted by Ye Yan before she could finish.
"It's okay. I can wait." Ye Yan's eyes were fixed on Zhao Youlin with indescribable seriousness.
Zhao Youlin was dumbfounded, even though she just smiled and didn't say anything more. He walked past Ye Yan towards a certain direction.
Now, the people around who had noticed Zhao Youlin and her muttered again as expected.
Old Madam Zhao here has given them too many surprises tonight. For starters, he obtained a confession from Old Master Zhao, who personally introduced him to everyone. What happened next was the attention from the youngest son of the most favored Ye family, Young Master Ye Yan, whose family was among the four most powerful families. He even took the initiative to ask her to dance.
The most shocking part was when Eldest Madam Zhao rejected Young Master Ye Yan's invitation without hesitation. And that's not all.
Just when everyone thought that Zhao Youlin's attitude must have been considered disrespectful to the Ye family and made Young Master Ye Yan upset, the young master, who was famous for his reputation as a playboy in aristocratic social circles, was, he said he would wait for her.
There were many beautiful women at the banquet, although Young Master Ye Yan would only dance with one woman, and it was enough to say that he paid no attention to anyone other than him. That was really surprising.
What exactly is so special about Eldest Madam Zhao? How could he attract the full attention of Young Master Ye Yan?
The crowd was confused as well as a little curious about the identity of the dance couple, which made Zhao Youlin reject Young Master Ye Yan's invitation.
At that moment, everyone's eyes coincidentally moved with Zhao Youlin's movements. When they saw Zhao Youlin walking towards Mu Tingfeng, an expression of understanding flashed across their faces.
