Only then did Medusa recover from her enormously stunned state. “Too… too okay! My god, Little Junior Sister, I always thought Qin Xiyuan was beautiful enough already, but now I finally know what the saying ‘staring at the sky from the bottom of the well’ means! Why are you always dressed like a beggar, Little Junior Sister?! Aren’t you wasting your face too much?!?!?!”
Ye Wanwan looked at Senior Sister’s sorrowful appearance and sighed. “Eh, it’s mainly because I got used to earning a living with shamelessness and nearly forgot I could earn a living with my face!”
Medusa: “…”
…
Inside the banquet hall:
Yin Heng was elatedly traversing through the crowds of distinguished leaders and figures with Qin Xiyuan.
After acting as a good son in the Yin family for so many years and acting as Si Yehan’s substitute for so many years, this was the first time he felt he could raise his head completely in front of Si Yehan. He had never felt this happy.
As he walked arm in arm with the beautiful, breathtaking Qin Xiyuan—arm in arm with the most beautiful woman with the most illustrious background in Tianshui City—he could finally, *finally* stomp Si Yehan under his feet.
Yin Heng purposefully led Qin Xiyuan to Si Yehan. “Eldest Brother, Yuanyuan and I are together now. Aren’t you going to give us your blessing?”
Si Yehan had been working intensely these past few days and was nearly exhausted, so he was sitting on a high stool in front of the bar and was supporting his forehead with his hand as he closed his eyes and rested. Upon being disturbed, he slowly peered up.
Although he had to look up, his innately superior gaze still made him look like he was staring down at ants and he exerted a frightening pressure.
Lin Que knew his Ninth Brother’s personality. Si Yehan was disinclined to even spare a look for people he didn’t care about.
However… Yin Heng… was actually an exception…
Lin Que still remembered the look in his Ninth Brother’s eyes when he learned Auntie Rong adopted a son, carefully nurtured this adopted son, and that he could be replaced at any second.
It was the look of someone whose last support pillar in the entire world had just crumbled.
Regardless of how extreme Yin Yuerong acted before, Ninth Brother wasn’t as hurt as that moment.
Ninth Brother didn’t care about this guy anymore, but when Lin Que watched how this guy circled around them like a fly and came running here to brag, he still felt disgusted.
It took Yin Heng everything he had to not allow himself to appear weak under Si Yehan’s overly formidable aura and keep his wine glass raised.
Qin Xiyuan chuckled lowly. “I should salute Director Si with a glass first. Director Si is truly passionately devoted to Miss Nie. I wish the two of you to live to old age in conjugal bliss.”
Qin Xiyuan’s mockery was evident. Si Yehan actually rejected her because of the mere Worriless Nie. Now that he had to watch her next to his archenemy, Yin Heng, she didn’t believe he could remain unruffled.
There were many people glancing at them covertly.
This scene was incredibly explosive.
Ye Wanwan, who was standing at the entrance, also watched this scene in its entirety.
She previously ordered First Elder and Third Elder to scout out the Yin family’s situation, so they did discover some things about the Yin family and truthfully told her in detail.
Back then, merely because Si Yehan couldn’t reach Yin Yuerong’s standards and satisfy her, the woman immediately adopted a son and nurtured him from the beginning.
Ye Wanwan still couldn’t figure out how Yin Yuerong could be so cruel and give up on her son that easily.
Even if she didn’t understand the situation back then, she could still imagine Si Yehan’s emotions when he discovered he was someone who could be replaced at any second to his mother—a figure whom he obeyed unhesitatingly and used everything he could to gain her approval despite her crazed, strict, and heartless demeanor…
