Yue Lanxing was also sizing up Yue Mingze. Their bone structure was almost identical, but he was certain that he had never seen another person with the surname Yue before. How could this be?
"It does look somewhat similar." Yue Lanxing nodded, which immediately put Yue Mingze's mind at ease. The way she judged him with her eyes without saying a word made it even more similar.
"However, I don't think there's anything between us. It might be a misunderstanding. I'll go back and ask my family, and then we can clear things up." Yue Lanxing expressed her thoughts.
Yue Mingze was surprised that he was so cooperative. "Oh! Okay, let's exchange contact information. This is my business card."
After Yue Lanxing took the business card, she also took out her own business card, which read "Xu's Medical Traditional Chinese Medicine Division." This surprised Yue Mingze. He looked at it several times before putting it away. It seems that the eldest daughter of the Xu family treats this person quite well.
After they finished talking about these things, they had nothing else to say. They looked at each other in silence and then tacitly went their separate ways in other directions.
As usual, Xu Zhaoyue's side was just a group of people praising each other, but this time Xu Guangcai meant something else: "Xiaoyue, this is your Uncle Li's child. He also graduated from university and went to work for his own company. He's young and promising."
Xu Zhaoyue looked over as he described, and he was indeed quite good-looking, but far inferior to Yue Lanxing. "Hello, let's talk about cooperation sometime." Xu Zhaoyue reached out her hand, and the other party was quite enthusiastic.
"Hey, what's the point of young people talking business together? They should get together more often and go out and have some fun," Xu Guangcai said with a smile.
Xu Zhaoyue noticed that the other person was a little shy, but she didn't mean it that way. "Dad, I don't have time to go out if we're not talking about business. If I go out to play every day, how can I help you? Dad, you're always on business trips, and I have to keep an eye on all the big and small things at the company."
Xu Guangcai's expression was no longer as happy as before. Fortunately, the person next to him picked up the conversation, "Old Xu, your daughter is young and promising. You're going to enjoy a life of luxury from now on."
"Uncle Li, this is what I should do. Taking on my responsibilities sooner will also allow my dad to rest a bit, right, Dad? Then you and my stepmother can go on a trip together, wouldn't that be great?" Xu Zhaoyue stood next to Xu Guangcai and smiled very sincerely.
Xu Guangcai brushed it off, but everyone else could see that the Xu family was about to undergo a power shift, which wouldn't be easy.
By the time Xu Zhaoyue finished talking and came to find Yue Lanxing, Yue Lanxing had already dodged several groups of people. Xu Zhaoyue had introduced him to everyone, and naturally some people were interested in him, but he didn't give them a chance to talk to him. He would find an opening and run away, then find a quiet place to stay.
Yue Lanxing initially had his back to Xu Zhaoyue. When he heard a sound behind him, he turned around to see who it was and thought about where to hide. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw the young lady behind him.
"Miss, have you finished your social engagements?" Yue Lanxing glanced behind Xu Zhaoyue and saw that the original group had indeed dispersed, but had formed a new clique.
Xu Zhaoyue smiled and nodded. That young master from the Li family definitely wouldn't dare to come over again. "Of course! I still need to find other people later. Did you have a conflict with Yue Mingze just now?"
"No." Yue Lanxing was overjoyed to see that the young lady had been paying attention to him, and quickly told Xu Zhaoyue what had just happened.
After listening, Xu Zhaoyue also felt that it was better to be more honest, as there was probably something hidden inside. "Alright, come with me to the back for a stroll."
"Yes, Miss." Yue Lanxing followed Xu Zhaoyue out of the hall. There were quite a few people observing them when they were standing there, especially Yue Mingze. To be honest, he was surprised by Yue Lanxing's temperament and speech.
It's hard to imagine that Yue Lanxing grew up in the environments he investigated. If he really has nothing to do with the Yue family, then he has to admire Yue Lanxing.
"Second brother, you've been looking for so long, have you made any major discoveries?" Yue Mingyuan deliberately raised the word "major" to mock her second brother, but Yue Mingze was in no mood to play games with her right now.
Yue Mingze turned around to look at his sister, "Didn't you go to see your best friend? Why are you all alone now?"
“People have their own social lives too, it’s not good for me to keep following them around,” Yue Mingyuan explained, but Yue Mingze clearly didn’t believe her. He said jokingly, “I thought you were too clingy and people found you annoying.”
"What are you saying? Say it again and I'll have my second uncle beat you up." Yue Mingyuan raised his fist and waved it in front of his face. "Alright, alright, I know you two are in cahoots. I'm not talking to you anymore." Yue Mingze quickly dodged away.
The siblings' playful fighting had no impact on the scene.
Xu Zhaoyue later encountered her company's business partner, who was of an older generation. They inevitably had to drink, but since she was a girl and knew how to talk, he only drank two glasses.
After everyone left, Yue Lanxing quickly glanced at the young lady's face and was relieved to find that her complexion was the same as when she first arrived. The young lady's face would turn pink when she was drunk, and since it wasn't red now, she wasn't drunk.
Xu Zhaoyue noticed that he glanced at her nervously, then relaxed completely. What had he figured out? Xu Zhaoyue was too embarrassed to ask the question aloud.
"Miss Xu, where did you find this butler? I wanted to have a chat with him, but he ran away as soon as we met." Someone came over to exchange pleasantries.
Xu Zhaoyue recognized her as someone from another family, but she didn't respond. Instead, she looked at Yue Lanxing with a teasing look in her eyes, as if to say, "You've been discovered even though you're trying to hide."
