Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 611: A Gathering of Handsome Men (4)_1

With the swaggering arrival of the Second Young Master of the Ye Family, the people from the four great families of Hidden World Village also arrived at the entrance, standing by Shangguan You’s side. No one had expected the people from the Ye Family would attend such a modest banquet.

"Second Young Master Ye, you’ve come," Shangguan You nodded to the Second Young Master of the Ye Family and spoke indifferently, her expression as inscrutable as ever, revealing nothing.

"Yes, others may not come, but I must attend your invitation." The Second Young Master of the Ye Family’s demeanor remained stern. Han Yachu was cold, at best an ice cube; Lin Wenhao was an iceberg; but Second Young Master Ye was a frozen tundra, encompassing all. Such was the impression these three stoic men gave.

"Please come in, President of the Ye Family." The words ’President of the Ye Family’ not only made everyone inside gape, but also caused those from the Yu Family, the Lin Family, and Shangguan Qing to look at Shangguan You differently. The Ye Family was the largest and most international of all conglomerates, and its president was shrouded in mystery. Was the man before them, colder than an iceberg itself, truly the legendary President of the Ye Family?

The corners of Zhong Mingyang’s mouth curled up. Second Young Master Ye had replaced Third Young Master Ye. Though Zhong Mingyang had dealt with the Ye Family countless times and was no stranger to them, he was still somewhat wary of their people. His admiration for Shangguan You grew as he witnessed their respectful treatment of her.

The Young Miss truly lived up to her title. She was so impressive! No matter who it was, they all had to succumb to the Young Miss’s charm.

"Welcome, everyone, to the anniversary celebration of Beijing First University and the New Year’s Eve gala. Since the establishment of Beijing First University..." As eight o’clock struck, the MC’s sweet voice resonated from the chairman’s podium inside.

However, the banquet tonight was truly odd. The male and female hosts on stage seemed to be in their own world, delivering their lines, but the gazes of the audience below, including the university leaders, were not on them. Instead, all eyes unanimously turned outward, focusing on the exceptionally distinguished men at the door, each more outstanding than the last.

The two hosts on stage managed to finish their prepared dialogue amidst the eerie atmosphere; their mental fortitude was indeed admirable.

"The banquet has begun; let’s go in," Shangguan You said, her words cutting through the crowd’s distraction. Everyone’s steps followed hers as they once again moved towards the auditorium.

The moment Yu Zijin saw Second Young Master Ye appear, his arrogant and icy demeanor made her heart pound violently. Third Young Master Ye was devilishly enchanting; Second Young Master Ye was an awe-inspiring iceberg. Yet, it was precisely this frigidness, this powerful aura, that made Yu Zijin’s heart race even more.

This was the most profound sensation she had ever felt! Her gaze remained fixed on Second Young Master Ye as he spoke indifferently with Youyou. Even though he was just as cold, she could see that slight difference in how he treated Youyou. A deep sense of loss welled up in Yu Zijin’s heart. Why? Why, apart from Shangguan You, did Second Young Master Ye not spare anyone else even a single glance?

The high-profile entrance of the group quickly snapped the many students and tutors back to reality, and the event’s hosts also heaved a sigh of relief. Thank goodness everyone’s back to normal. Otherwise, how could we have gone on? Brief speeches from the university’s senior members followed.

"The banquet officially starts!" As the principal finished speaking, melodious music began to play. Students, paired up, flooded onto the dance floor, and the gentle music permeated every corner of the hall.

With Shangguan You as the center of attention, a throng of handsome men quickly surrounded her.

"Young Master Shangguan, Young Master Yu, Young Master Zhang, Young Master Gui, welcome to our university’s anniversary celebration!" The principal, accompanied by a group of university leaders, hurried over to Shangguan Qing, Yu Zifeng, and the others, immediately extending warm handshakes to express their gratitude.

"Do not worry, gentlemen. Miss Shangguan, Miss Yu, and Miss Gui are completely safe within our university. We will ensure their protection."

"Indeed. The leaders have abundant responsibilities. The three young misses are safe here and can focus on their studies. The leaders can rest assured."

"Then, thank you, Principal. My dear Youyou will be in your care from now on."

"Yes, Principal. That girl Zijin can be quite a handful."

"The performance of all three young ladies has been exemplary within our institution, especially Miss Shangguan, who entered our school with the highest score among all college entrance examinees and is a star of our university," the principal lavished praise. If I can just win the favor of the Shangguan and Yu families, my own advancement will be just around the corner!

Yang Xiu and Chen Xu were beyond words. Even the principal greeted Shangguan You and her companions with such deference. Could the Shangguan, Yu, and Gui families be *those* elite families of Beijing?

Liu Zili and Duan Yingyan were agape, unable to utter a complete sentence. At the same time, they were both immensely relieved that they hadn’t completely offended Shangguan You. Otherwise, there would be no place left for them in Beijing!

Director Li kept wiping the sweat from his forehead. The Shangguan Family, the Yu Family... I actually offended two of Beijing’s top clans! I crossed the princesses of the two most untouchable families in the city! I’m completely doomed this time! At this moment, Director Li also understood why the usually aloof Li Ruizhe had taken the initiative to greet Shangguan You.

"Principal, I’ve discussed it with them. From now on, their companies can give preferential consideration to our university’s graduates," Shangguan You said. Her words once again addressed the employment issue for Beijing First University’s graduates, nearly causing the principal to stumble again. As expected of someone from the Shangguan Family! Simply incredible!

The principal had been worried sick about the employment of Beijing First University graduates. Although job allocation was no longer guaranteed, employment difficulties for a prestigious university like Beijing First University could still impact prospective students’ enrollment rates. Now that Shangguan You had helped him solve this major problem, how could the principal not be thrilled and regard her even more highly?

"President Ye, I am Lin Wenjie, and I’m delighted to meet you here," Lin Wenjie said, approaching Second Young Master Ye. He was eager to understand the enigmatic objectives of the Ye Family.

"If you’re interested in the company’s affairs, you can discuss them with Ye An," Second Young Master Ye said, giving Lin Wenjie a cold glance. Had he not known about Lin Wenjie’s ties to Shangguan You, Second Young Master Ye would not have spoken to him, let alone paid him any attention.
