Yin Yanyue's action of pushing open the door paused for a moment, and then immediately knocked on the study door as if she was putting on an act. Without waiting for a reply, she pushed open the door and entered.

"Uncle Gu."

She scanned the layout of the study and finally fixed her gaze on the Lord Viscount. "I want to go to dinner tonight."

She was quite straightforward, explaining her purpose the moment she entered the room.

"What if I say no?"

His attitude was neither cold nor indifferent, and his face didn't have the slightest expression.

If she couldn't go to the banquet tonight, she wouldn't be able to give the powder to the rich merchants. At that time, the situation would be even more dire for Allocer and Mika.

No matter what, she had to hold on to the tiger's head first. Whether or not she would give drugs to those three wealthy businessmen was something that she could control.

"How can you go?"

Yin Chengyue frowned, then took a big step towards his desk, "You can raise any condition you want."

A trace of displeasure flashed across the eyes of the young noble, he hated Yin Yanyue for speaking to him in such a negotiating manner.

He opened the file on the table, looked down, and said in a low voice, "Get out."

He had been trying to talk it over with her, but the situation had made him reject the possibility.

Yin Yanyue's face stiffened. He was at a loss for what to do for a moment.

What did she say wrong? The young noble palace suddenly changed his face, the speed of this change was even faster than changing the sky.

But she didn't want to let it go like this. Thus, she opened her mouth again and couldn't help but soften her tone. "Uncle Gu …"

"Get out."

The viscount didn't even give her a chance to finish, his sharp gaze wanted to kill her.

Yin Yanyue pursed her lips, turned around and prepared to leave.

She could be considered to understand the temper of the Palace Lord. If he wasn't happy, she wouldn't listen to a word he said.

But when she walked to the door, her mind once again recalled the conversation she had with Allocer just now. His weak voice and his strange tone.

If she didn't go to dinner tonight, then Allocer and Miyagi …

The tiger-headed man wasn't just threatening her. As long as he could say it, she would be able to do it.

"Uncle Gu!"

Yin Yanyue suddenly turned around with a resolute expression and walked towards the young noble who was sitting by his desk.

The young noble was scared stiff by her imposing aura, those who didn't know better would think that she was going to hit someone.

He leaned back, and looked at the approaching Yin Yanyue in panic, "What? Don't be too... "Ugh!"

Yin Yanyue stopped in front of him. She suddenly grabbed his head with her hands and bent down to cover his lips.

Soft tongues intruded between his teeth, brushing his gums.

Although Uncle Gu usually looked cold and cheerless, he had never expected his lips to be so soft. There was an indescribable fragrance coming from his mouth, making him feel that it wasn't bad …

Yin Yanyue was shocked by her own thoughts and quickly gave up on them. She took back her lips and looked at him condescendingly, "If you don't agree, I will kiss you until you agree!"

Anyways, she understood that a person like Uncle Gu would definitely not take the hard approach. So, she could only try other methods, such as … Acting a hooligan!

The young noble was stunned for a moment, his gaze never left Yin Yanyue who stood in front of him.

His heart almost stopped at the sudden kiss from Yin Xiaoyue.

"You … Say something! "

Yin Yanyue frowned, wanting to slap him awake.

The young noble suddenly recovered from his shock and pulled her into his arms. With a charming chuckle, he whispered in his ear, "You said it until I agree."

Yin Chengyue crashed into his chest, and stared at him with wide eyes, not knowing why. Before he could even reply, his handsome face was already pressed down.

Her lips were once again sealed, but this time, it was Yin Yeyue's turn to feel at a loss.

She had only threatened him once, but she did not expect him to actually climb up with his hands on his legs.

"Ugh!" "Uncle Gu!"

Yin Yeyue used all her strength to push him away, subconsciously wiping her lips, "You are playing a hooligan!"

The young noble was not satisfied, he smiled and touched his lips, "It seems like you were the one who started it."

Speaking of which, it did seem like she was in the wrong.

Yin Chengyue let out a breath, then got up from his lap and asked again, "Should we go or not?"

"Tell me first, why do you want to go to tonight's ball?"

The viscount looked at her as if he wanted to see through her.

Yin Yanyue was usually too lazy to attend the banquet in the upper class. There must be a special reason for her to suddenly want to go so eagerly.

Yin Yanyue paused for a few seconds, then suddenly began to talk nonsense in all seriousness, "Uncle Bai and Aunt Fang will be going tonight, plus there will be a lot of partners at the banquet. If those people are roped in by Uncle Bai, it will be very disadvantageous for you."

"Hmm?"

The young noble looked at her with interest, "So you're saying that you're thinking for my sake?"

Yin Yanyue was a bit guilty, but she still nodded strongly with a face full of certainty.

However, how could the young noble Gong believe her lies so easily? He changed the topic and tentatively asked, "Who told you that there will be a feast tonight?"

He had not revealed anything about tonight's feast, so she could only hear it from someone else.

Yin Yanyue frowned slightly. At the moment, she couldn't say that Tiger Head told her.

At this moment, a person flashed through her mind. "Uncle Bai told me."

It made sense that she and Uncle Bai had met while they were at the company.

When the young noble heard that it was Gong Yufeng, his face sank again, "Yin Yanyue, you have to remember, you already …"

"I'm already engaged to you, so you won't let me get too close to Uncle Bai, right?"

Yin Yanyue interrupted him with a look of helplessness, "Since when have you seen me take the initiative to look for Uncle Bai? He's always been the one looking for me, and it's all my fault? "

Thinking about it this way, it was indeed Gong Yufeng who came to the market to find Yin Yanyue a few times. But no matter who it was, as long as he saw the two of them together, he would feel an indescribable rage in his heart.

"Uncle Gu."

When Yin Yanyue saw him lose his spirit again, she raised her voice to ask him again, "Should we go or not?"

"The dress is in the third closet in your room. Pick one and change into it."

The young noble stood up and slowly walked towards the door of the study, as if he wanted to change into a suit suitable for participating in the royal ball.

Seeing that she had finally convinced him, she secretly rejoiced and immediately let out a sigh of relief as she followed him out of the study.

Fumann was still sitting on the sofa in the living room downstairs, looking up at her as she came out.

She should have thought that the situation was like this —

Yin Chengyue had failed in persuading the young lord. He walked out of the study dejectedly, and the young lord impatiently returned to his bedroom.

However, the actual situation was —

Yin Yanyue successfully persuaded the viscount, and both of them planned to return to their rooms to change into formal attire and attend the banquet.

Yin Yanyue ignored Fang Man's provocative gaze and went back to her room to pick out a long white dress. She quickly made up her makeup and walked out of the room.

At this time, the young noble was already sitting on the sofa in the living room on the first floor, while Fang Man stood at the side with a blank look on his face.

From her eyes, it could be seen how much she couldn't believe that Yin Xiaoyue could actually convince the viscount.

Before this, she had always thought that he was just ambitious, and intended to use the marriage alliance with the people of the palace to stabilize his position. She didn't have any feelings for Yin Chengyue.

But from the looks of it, he and Yin Yanyue were not that simple …
