into Fu Chunqiu's mouth.The pill melted upon entering the mouth, then transformed into a wave of coolness that flowed down the esophagus.Fu Chunqiu's face was full of astonishment and confusion: "You'...The arrival of this group of beauties instantly made all the women present lose their luster.

Ximen Yujiao let out a cold snort, her heart filled with jealousy.

Originally, a young master from a prominent family had been fawning over her nonstop. Now, he stared blankly in the other direction, not even glancing at her again.

Ximen Yuliang almost swallowed his saliva and immediately strode towards them, so many beautiful women, he could hook up with one if he was lucky.

"Aunt Changsun, welcome..."

He greeted them with enthusiasm, but to his surprise, they ignored him completely.

Not only did Su Ruyu and the others ignore him, but even Changsun Dongju didn't even look at him, and walked straight into the hall, choosing a seat and sitting down.

"Damn it, this is awkward. Aren't you guys here to celebrate I'm the star of the show today! Why are you ignoring me"

Ximen Yuliang was filled with dejection, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Just then, more guests arrived, which eased the awkwardness a bit.

This time, the head of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Jianye, has come in. Behind him are Dongfang Huizhong and Dongfang Renjie.

Seeing that the Eastern House had given them such face, even sending three people at once, Xi Men Yu Liang's heart finally felt a little better.

"Master of the East, welcome, welcome."

He went up to meet him again. Dongfang Jianye wasn't as dismissive as Changsun Dongju, but he didn't show much either. He just gave a meaningful slight smile and then walked inside.

The Oriental man, dressed in a well-tailored casual outfit, looked dashing.

He was carrying a box, covered with a black cloth. What was inside was unknown.

Originally, others thought it was a gift, but they didn't intend to give it away at all. They didn't even hand it over to the bodyguard behind them, carrying it themselves.

Standing at the door, he looked over Xi Men Yuliang, "This outfit isn't bad."

"Oh, it's alright. It's handmade from Italy..."

Ximen Yuliang's face was full of pride, just about to show off, when another voice came from beside him.

It's a pity that the person is a little too ugly.

Dongfang Huizhong spoke, then followed Dongfang Jianye into the room.

"Uh..."

Xi Men Yu Liang was even more embarrassed now, but unfortunately, she was a notorious madwoman in the capital. He dared not provoke her.

Oriental Hui Zhong is notorious for crushing anyone who crosses him. These years, he's gotten quite a beating under this woman's hand; he just can't beat her.

"Do your best, I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do." Dongfang Renjie patted him on the shoulder, revealing a strange smile, then walked inside carrying the box in his hand.

For some reason, the laughter of the father and son from the East gave Ximen Yuliang a bad feeling.

He then shook his head again, This is the Ximen family, with countless masters stationed here. It's absolutely impossible for anything to go wrong.

As the head honcho, Dongfang Jianye was given a seat of honor at the front row of the guest seats. Dongfang Renjie and Dongfang Huizhong found an adjacent table to sit down at.

"Brother, what is this"

"Dongfang Huizhong looked at the box and asked,"

"This is good stuff, you'll see in a minute."

"The Oriental man said with a playful expression."

"Playing tricks," Dongfang Hui thought suddenly, "Could it be related to that guy"

"Um... a little bit."

Dongfang Hui inquired, "Has he returned to the Imperial Capital"

"This..."

Dongfang Renjie originally didn't want to say anything, but when he suddenly saw a shiny pair of scissors in his sister's hand, his legs went stiff.

"Sister, it's not a good habit to always carry scissors with you..."

Get to the point. Is he back Where is he

Dong Fangrenjie said: "He is back, but it's not his time to appear yet."

"What in the world are you guys up to"

"I'm not quite sure either, you'll find out soon enough. It's bound to be interesting."

The Oriental man had a playful smirk on his face.

"What does that mean Isn't today Ximen Yu Liang's engagement celebration Could he be causing trouble"

The oriental man leaned into her ear and whispered, "That guy's fiancée seems to be the woman Xiaofan was after."

"Damn, how many women does this guy have"

Dongfang Hui Zhong gritted his teeth, then a worried expression appeared on his face, "Do you think that guy will come to steal the bride"

Though she might seem a bit rough around the edges, she's not stupid. This is the Ximen family, with masters like clouds in the sky. For Ye Bufan to come here and try to steal the bride is definitely a very risky move.

"You don't have to worry about that, I bet Xiao Fan has it all arranged."

The East Asians look confident.

Dongfang Huizhong stopped speaking and quietly began to circulate his true qi.

Once that guy is in danger, she would definitely step in to help, even if it's the Xi Men family.

As time gradually passed, the ceremony venue was filled with guests.

The chief seats, the five great families of the imperial capital, were all occupied except for the Changsun family. The heads of the other four families had already taken their places.

Seated in the center was Ximen Fengyun, the head of the Ximen family. He scanned the room and frowned slightly, clearly displeased with the Changsun family.

Although the five prominent families in the capital have always been engaged in a power struggle, they still maintain a facade of civility on the surface.

No matter what, today is a big day of celebration for the Ximen family. The Changsun family should send someone important to attend, instead of only sending Changsun Dongju.

In contrast, the other three great families were still very face-saving. The head of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Jianye, the head of the Sima family, Sima Pingcuo, and the head of the Murong family, Murong Chengdu, were all present.

Time is up, the celebration officially begins.

On the stage, a host in professional attire smiled sweetly and addressed the microphone: “Now we come to the most important moment of today. Please welcome the two happy couples.”

As soon as the words left his mouth, everyone's gaze turned to the entrance. There, standing side by side at the door, was Gu Qingcheng in a grand crimson dress and Ximen Yuliang.

When many men saw Gu Qingcheng's stunning beauty, they all exclaimed in admiration.

It seems the celebration today wasn't in vain, I actually saw so many beauties.

Dong Fang Hui Zhong also sized up Gu Qing Cheng, then curled her lip. This guy was really a playboy, picking up so many beautiful women from everywhere.

As the saying goes, happiness brings vigor, and Ximen Yuliang was brimming with spirits, a look of triumph on his face.

He smiled and reached out his hand, ready to take Gu Qingcheng's hand.

To his surprise, Gu Qingcheng darted away directly, walking alone toward the podium. By the time he came to his senses, she was already several meters away.

Suddenly, the entire hall was filled with an awkward silence. All eyes turned to Ximen Yuliang.

Their eyes held a mixture of confusion, bewilderment, and a hint of mocking amusement tinged with schadenfreude.

Everyone present had attended countless engagement celebrations, but they had never seen anything like this. It was obvious that the beautiful woman was clearly not interested in Ximen Yuliang.

Ximen Yuliang gritted his teeth, forcing back the urge to curse, and managed to squeeze out a strained smile before chasing after him with feigned composure.

The emcee on stage was a little dumbfounded. She just realized that today's engagement ceremony didn't seem so easy to host after all.

She was very clear about the Ximen family's status in the imperial capital. If she really messed up today's wedding, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thinking about this, my palm holding the microphone was sweating. difference at all."Could this be a dream"Bai Li Hongjun was a little confused, the surrounding environment was so real, it didn't feel like a dream.But how could something like this, being kidnapped...
