"Wenrui, come with me."
As she spoke, Su Yuyu pulled Huang Wenrui toward Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang.
"Sister Ningshuang, let me introduce you. This is my boyfriend, Huang Wenrui, the third-generation direct descendant of the Huang family, a top-tier wealthy family in Jinling."
Su Yuyu pretended to be polite.
Listening to his girlfriend introduce himself, Huang Wenrui remained calm. Just like when he met the other members of the Su family earlier, Huang Wenrui's eyes held a hint of superiority as he looked down at Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang.
"Hello."
Su Ningshuang responded politely.
Huang Wenrui simply nodded slightly, his attitude rather indifferent.
"Oh right, I forgot to introduce you. This is my cousin Su Ningshuang, and her husband Ye Chen."
Su Yuyu continued speaking.
Huang Wenrui, who was originally uninterested in Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang and was just about to find a place to rest, suddenly trembled as if he had been electrocuted when he heard what Su Yuyu said.
"You...you...what did you just say...What's your brother-in-law's name...?"
Huang Wenrui suddenly turned his head, his expression surprised, and asked tremblingly.
"Ye...Chen...is there a problem?"
Su Yuyu answered word by word, utterly bewildered as to why her boyfriend was acting so strangely.
"Ye Chen.......Ye Chen.......Gurgle, gurgle........"
After hearing his girlfriend's answer, Huang Wenrui muttered something to himself, albeit stammeringly.
Ye Chen, his name really is Ye Chen.
Now there's only one question left: Is Su Yuyu's brother-in-law, Ye Chen, the same person as the important figure Ye Shao that I've heard about? There are many people in this world with the same name, especially two-character names, which increases the chances of name duplication.
"Young Master Ye, do you know Young Master Xue?"
Huang Wenrui lowered his stance and asked Ye Chen with utmost politeness.
"Young Master Xue, who is Young Master Xue?"
Ye Chen frowned, as he was unfamiliar with this form of address.
Hearing Ye Chen's words, Huang Wenrui breathed a slight sigh of relief. At this moment, he was 70-80% certain that this Ye Chen was not the same person as the Ye Shao he had heard about, but there was still a slight uncertainty. Huang Wenrui still replied:
"It's Xue Leran, Young Master Xue."
Huang Wenrui revealed Xue Shao's name.
"Oh, you mean Xiao Xue? I thought it was someone else."
Ye Chen suddenly realized who it was. He had thought it was someone else, but it turned out to be Xue Leran, the young master of the Xue family, a wealthy family in Shanghai. Ye Chen naturally knew him.
Back in Shanghai, Xue Leran had repeatedly invited Ye Chen out to play, acting like a little brother to him.
"Xiao...Xiao Xue..."
Noticing Ye Chen's address to Young Master Xue, Huang Wenrui swallowed hard. No need to ask further, this man in front of him, Su Yuyu's brother-in-law, was definitely the Young Master Ye he had heard about—absolutely the real deal!
The Xue family's strength is terrifying, far surpassing that of the Huang family of Jinling.
He got to know Young Master Xue through a friend, and fawned over him for a long time.
As a result, Su Yuyu's brother-in-law called Xue Shao, a young master from Shanghai, "Little Xue." Perhaps only a big shot like Ye Shao would dare to address someone like that.
If it were him, daring to address Young Master Xue like that, he would probably have been beaten so badly that even his own parents wouldn't recognize him.
"Hello, Mr. Ye. My name is Huang Wenrui. You can call me Xiao... Xiao Huang from now on."
After confirming Ye Chen's identity, Huang Wenrui immediately bowed and scraped to Ye Chen, speaking in an extremely obsequious manner.
In fact, Huang Wenrui initially intended for Ye Shao to call him Little Huang. After all, even a young master like Xue Shao from Shanghai was called "Little Xue" by Ye Shao. He was far inferior to Xue Shao, so naturally he wouldn't dare to be on the same level as Xue Shao.
But "Little Huang" sounded so awkward, so Huang Wenrui compromised and let Ye Shao call him Little Huang.
As for how he heard about Young Master Ye, it was half a month ago when he went to Shanghai for fun and was chatting with some friends when he overheard Young Master Xue mentioning it.
At the time, Xue Shao casually mentioned that he had found an incredibly powerful older brother named Ye Chen, Ye Shao.
Xue Shao's casual remark shocked Huang Wenrui and the others quite a bit. Huang Wenrui kept it in mind. He never expected that he would meet the legendary Ye Shao while attending his girlfriend's grandmother's birthday party. What a coincidence!
"Young Master Ye, it is truly an honor to meet you..."
Huang Wenrui pulled out all the stops and began to fawn over Ye Chen in every way possible.
This scene shocked the other younger generation of the Su family present. It had only been half a year since they last met, had Ye Chen's connections and influence increased so much?
Even the eldest son of the prestigious Huang family of Jinling has to fawn over Ye Chen, it's unbelievable!!!
Ye Chen is still the best. Su Yuyu's idea of surpassing Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang is simply wishful thinking.
Standing next to Huang Wenrui, Su Yuyu's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. Was this still her lawless, ruthless, and capricious boyfriend from Jinling?!
How could her boyfriend, whom she was so proud of, have become such a pathetic lapdog in front of Ye Chen? Su Yuyu's mood plummeted from the heights of her life to the depths of despair. Now she had become a complete clown.
She thought that with a powerful boyfriend, she could use him to make a name for herself in the family and steal the spotlight. But now it seems that she has indeed "stolen the spotlight," only this "stolen spotlight" is exactly what she wanted!
She became a laughing stock!
As for her wanting to outdo Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang, that's a complete joke!
"By the way, Young Master Ye, this must be your sister-in-law. I'm so sorry, sister-in-law. I was so arrogant and dared to be so cold to you. It was all my fault. Please don't hold a small person like me against my authority."
Huang Wenrui bowed deeply to Su Ningshuang beside him, repeatedly apologizing for his earlier disrespect towards her.
Su Ningshuang looked at Ye Chen, a sense of happiness rising in her heart. If it weren't for Ye Chen, Huang Wenrui's attitude towards her wouldn't have changed so drastically.
And this was only the effect of Huang Wenrui hearing just one name.
My boyfriend is amazing!!!
Before long, the other direct descendants of the Su family, Su Ningshuang's elders, and so on, arrived one after another. Old Master Su checked them all and confirmed that there were no problems.
Important family members were all present, along with other wealthy and influential figures from Hangzhou, including patriarchs of prominent families. Old Master Su stepped forward, taking this opportunity to announce something important to everyone!
