  When the crowd heard this, they could not help but whisper among themselves. The living hall which had fallen into silence due to the former master’s voice had become noisy once again.

  After a brief commotion, the onlookers surrounding the former master seized the opportunity and took the initiative to flatter him.

  “Mr. Mu, you are very blessed! President Zhao is a successful man and now, your eldest grandson is equally so successful!”


  “Indeed, even though Young Master Zhao was in exile all alone, he could still achieve success. He is truly an outstanding talent.”


  “Young Master Zhao is a good-looking young man with exceptional talents. His good looks and ability resemble that of your and his father. Finally, you can enjoy your retired life in peace.”


  While the group of men were busy riding on the former master and Zhao Shunrong’s coattails, a group of noble and famous women were peeking at Han Yichen with strong desire. Some had even flirted with their eyes openly.

  He was the president of Sheng Huang Group as well as the future president of Zhao Enterprise. Regardless of which title he held, they equally symbolized ample wealth and supreme status. As such, many women would go after him like bees to honey.

  It was not an exaggeration to say that he was literally a wealthy husband. Whoever successfully courted him would enjoy a lifetime of glory, wealth and status. They could have all these at their fingertips with no worries at all.

  An Yue stood beside Han Yichen. She naturally felt the attention gathered on the person next to her. Her expression changed slightly. She subconsciously clenched her hands which were laced with Han Yichen’s hand.

  Han Yichen furrowed his eyebrows upon noticing those nasty gazes cast at him. At the same time, he also felt the hint of uncharacteristic possessiveness from the person next to him. He immediately turned his head around and looked at An Yue. His gaze carried a hint of comfort, telling her that he totally had no feelings for those women and that she did not have to overthink about it.

  An Yue looked like she understood the meaning conveyed to her from Han Yichen’s gaze. She heaved a sigh of relief and returned his smile.

  The next moment, she sucked in a deep breath. She straightened her body and looked up at those women from various directions who had been probing them when they noticed Han Yichen’s actions.

  This man belonged to her alone. He solely belonged to her. She would never trade anything for him.

  He was her only private belonging, and she would not share him with anyone, much less grab him away from her. She could give up the whole world but not him. This was because he was her bottom line!

  Han Yichen had noticed each and every change from An Yue’s expressions. The hint of tenderness and adoration grew increasingly prominent. Unfortunately, his tenderness and adoration solely belonged to her. They had nothing to do with others.

  It had not been easy for the former master to get away from the crowd’s flattery. The moment he turned his head around, he saw those famous and noblewomen were eyeing his precious grandson like hungry wolves. He narrowed his eyes and decided to make the second announcement without further ado.

  “Next, I am going to announce another matter. My grandson has successfully proposed to Ms. An, who is standing next to him, not long ago. The proposal was carried out in a haste at that time, they did not hold a grand ceremony for it. We felt sorry for them, especially Ms. An. As such, I am going to make the third announcement now. We are seizing today’s opportunity to hold an engagement ceremony for them and have all of you as their witnesses. We want to give our blessings to this couple, and we welcome all of you to attend their wedding ceremony after half a month.”


  The former master’s words had once again stirred up the crowd. Many people started to wonder about Ms. An’s background and if she came from a privileged family.

  After a short period of chattering, they congratulated them. Those who were without daughters congratulated the Zhao family on their triple happiness with sincerity. At the same time, they delighted in their competitors’ misfortune who had daughters and intended to use their daughters to ride on the Zhao family’s coattails and strive to sell their daughters. Now that Han Yichen already had a fiancee, these people who wanted to offer their daughters to him felt as if they had been struck in their faces.

  Besides, those families with daughters pounded their chests and sighed over the fact that they were too late for this opportunity. How good would it be if their daughter was the one who courted such a successful husband?

  The crowd each had their own hidden desires and yet, they forced smiles on their faces and congratulated the Zhao family happily.

  Of course, not everyone on the spot was sober and able to restrain their own desires.

  There were at least one or two of them who refused to give up on him even after they had learned the news. They still wanted to bang their heads against the wall and ask for death. For example…


  “Ms. An, you must have certain strengths to be able to attract the eldest young master’s attention, right? May I know which great family are you from?” The voice of a young lady with an aggressive tone rose behind and instantly attracted the crowd’s attention.

  Zhao Youlin and the rest of her group looked in the direction. They were greeted by the sight of a young lady looking up smugly not far away from them. She was staring at An Yue with her eyes filled with hostility.

  When she saw the people were looking at her, she rested her gaze on Han Yichen and tried to smile gently so that she appeared more gentle and friendly.

  However, the hint of aggressiveness in her eyes had betrayed her anyway.

  Zhao Youlin locked gazes with one another. They did not say anything. Meanwhile, Han Yichen’s eyes sank.

  An Yue was caught by surprise upon hearing the young lady’s abrupt question. However, she was already well-prepared for this kind of situation. The moment she decided to be with Han Yichen, whose status had a huge gap from hers, she had already mentally prepared for this situation.

  Therefore when she faced such a situation, she did not plan to retreat from it even though she got slightly worked up.

  “I-I…I’m not a rich lady from any great family. I am only an ordinary woman.”


  After saying this, An Yue heaved a sigh of relief. She looked down and clenched her hands.

  Han Yichen touched her head adoringly. Before An Yue looked up, he swept his cold glance across the stunned crowd. The crowd subconsciously shivered upon meeting his gaze. They quickly looked away from An Yue.

  However, in their hearts, they were surprised over the fact that the eldest young master of the Zhao family had actually looked for a normal young girl without any prominent background.

  A trace of understanding flashed across Xie Yuqing’s eyes. The way she looked at An Yue grew increasingly disdainful.

  Ever since young, she attended various banquets and contacted numerous famous and noble women from the upper-class society in order to find a suitable prince charming for her. Therefore, she had a very good understanding of her potential competitors who were mainly from great families.

  Xie Yuqing’s eyes sparkled the moment she first saw Han Yichen. She found him to be good-looking and charming. He was her ideal cup of tea.

  Later, when she learned from the former master’s introduction that he was actually the Zhao family’s long-lost eldest grandson as well as the president of Sheng Huang Group, she thought that he and she were match-made in heaven.

  No one in this world was worthy of him except her. Likewise, no one was worthy of her except him!
