Shi Guang turned her head around immediately as though she had a guilty conscience. But thinking back, he was clearly the one who had been staring at her! Why did she have to turn her head around as though she was a bad student who was caught by a teacher for her wrongdoings?

She could only blame Lu Yanchen for having eyes that were way too pressurizing.

Not only that, he didn’t even feel awkward in the slightest bit for being caught staring at her, instead continuing to stare steadily.

Secretly, she scoffed out at herself before looking over bravely. However, Lu Yanchen was no longer there, walking down the stairs leading to her side instead.

This man with his tall disposition was just like a tuft of white snow that stayed at the highest peaks of the world–cold and aloof. No matter how low of a profile he kept, he was still someone others would catch sight of first when he walked through any crowd.

Hushed whispers began to build up in the surroundings… There were many young lasses who were feeling their hearts skipping out with their blood rumbling.

Even if Lu Yanchen was rumored to be engaged, his family background and looks alone were enough for others to want to stare at him still. It wasn’t just him, in fact. All the men from the Lu Family were people to be sought after and coveted. Every single woman present wanted to have a piece of them–yes, even the married Third of the Lu Family.

A rotund middle-aged man suddenly walked beside Lu Yanchen and greeted him all smiles, wanting to make some connections.

“Ah, Yanchen! To think that you’ve already grown so tall! Back when I left the compound, you were just…” He aimed at his waist level, “so tall!”

Even though Lu Yanchen returned the greeting, he was still ever so distant and cold. Seemingly unable to sense that, the middle-aged man continued with his passionate banter and even beckoned at his daughter. “Do you still remember Xiao Jiao?”

His daughter was rather pretty looking as she smiled at Lu Yanchen tenderly. “It’s been a long time, Yanchen.”

Lu Yanchen looked over at Xiao Jiao with a rather distant gaze. “Long time no see…”

Getting a reply from him had Xiao Jiao feeling as though she was being bathed in honey right now. She could barely repress the excitement that was about to pop out of her throat. “I h-heard… that you’re probably going abroad for your studies! I’ve been in England for the past few years. There’re a few schools that are rather decent there. If you require anyth…”

He rejected her before she had even finished her sentence, “It’s fine!”

Xiao Jiao froze up, but the middle-aged man broke the awkwardness with a ‘haha’ right away. “Yanchen, you don’t have to stand on courtesy. Back in the past, you two were always playing along in the compound! She would often say that she wanted to marry you too!”

Lu Yanchen looked at him indifferently. “You must have remembered wrongly–I’m not the person she said she wanted to marry.”

The moment he heard that, the middle-aged man could barely hold himself from collapsing. He had never once been exposed so ruthlessly before!

He could only cover it up with yet another ‘haha’. “Hue! My memory must be getting blurry as I’ve aged…!”

Lu Yanchen did not continue the conversation, instead replying coldly, “Excuse me…” before looking at Shi Guang, who was watching the show from a distance. Immediately, her body froze up as she shifted her gaze instinctively once more.

Even though this wasn’t any sensational scene, it still attracted many eyeballs.

Everyone here today was shrewd people. How could they not know what that middle-aged man was planning–he was merely trying to shove his daughter into the Lu Family!

However, he had found the wrong person to try it on – the 4th Young Master was the hardest to get along with!

Yang Sitong caught sight of that as well and she was about to explode out from anger. But, after hearing Lu Yanchen reject them, she smiled out happily once more. She did not care whether Lu Yanchen liked her–as long as he didn’t fall for any other woman, he would have to marry her!

Following Lu Yanchen’s gaze, she caught sight of Shi Guang resting in the corner as her face turned dark.

‘What was that swimming coach doing here? With her status, there was no way she could be attending a party of this class!’

‘And, what was Lu Yanchen looking at that swimming coach for!’

‘Was he going to look for her?’
