Medusa finally snapped out of her stupor, exclaiming, “This… this is incredible! Oh my goodness! Little junior sister, I always thought Qin Xiyuan was already beautiful, but now I realize what true beauty is! Little junior sister, why do you usually dress like a beggar? You’re wasting your face!”
Watching her senior sister’s regretful expression, Ye Wanwan sighed and replied, “Well, it’s mainly because I’ve gotten used to being shameless to make a living. I almost forgot I could rely on my looks!”
Medusa: “…”
…
Inside the banquet hall.
Yin Heng was confidently strolling with Qin Xiyuan among the elite and prominent figures. After serving as the Yin family’s good son for so many years and as a stand-in for Si Yehan, he felt like he had finally raised his head high in front of Si Yehan, experiencing an unprecedented sense of liberation.
Yin Heng intentionally led Qin Xiyuan to Si Yehan’s presence and said, “Big brother, Xiyuan and I are together now. Won’t you wish us well?”
Si Yehan had been working intensively for days, almost draining his energy. He was sitting on a barstool, his forehead resting against his hand, trying to relax. When disturbed, he slowly raised his eyes.
Even though he was looking up, his gaze still carried that same disdain for ants, with a chilling aura.
Lin Que knew his ninth brother’s temperament well. For those he didn’t care about, he wouldn’t even spare a glance. However, Yin Heng was an exception.
He still vividly remembered the look his ninth brother gave him when he learned that their aunt had taken in a foster son and was grooming him, and that he could be replaced at any time. It was a gaze as if the last bit of support in the world had shattered. No matter how excessive Yin Yuerong’s actions were, it didn’t make his ninth brother sad at any moment.
Now, Si Yehan no longer cared about this person, but watching him strut around like a fly, showing off and acting all triumphant, made Lin Que sick to his stomach.
Under Si Yehan’s overpowering presence, Yin Heng struggled not to appear weak and raised his wine glass, still pretending.
Qin Xiyuan let out a low laugh and said, “Let me toast Director Si first. Director Si is deeply devoted to Miss Nie. I wish you both a happy life together.”
Qin Xiyuan’s mockery was evident. Si Yehan had rejected her for Nie Wuyou, and now, seeing her stand on the opposite side with Yin Heng, she couldn’t believe he would remain indifferent.
At this moment, many people around were discreetly watching this scene.
This was a truly explosive situation.
And at this very moment, this scene was fully observed by Ye Wanwan, who was standing at the entrance.
She had previously sent the elder and third elder to investigate the Yin family’s situation, and they had shared all the information they had gathered with her. Even though she didn’t fully understand the events from years ago, she could imagine how Si Yehan, who had tried so hard to earn his mother’s approval, only to discover that he was easily replaceable when he couldn’t meet Yin Yuerong’s expectations, must have felt.
