Then I'll have to steal her away. (9, 10, 11, 12)



Xiao Qingshi looked at the closed door and replied, "I found it. I want to ask you something."

"Go ahead," Jiang Wanli said, somewhat puzzled. What else did he want to ask her?

Xiao Qingshi then asked, "Does your sister own a house in Yun Cui Ting? Or do any of her friends own one?"

“No, why would we buy a house in Yuncuiting? Besides, my sister doesn’t like to interact with others and doesn’t have many friends, or probably none.” When she was little, his sister used to love making friends, but later she found that after her friends learned about her background, some of them either stopped contacting her or kept trying to curry favor with her.

So later she simply stopped making friends. She had many people she could contact, but only a few she was truly close to, and some of them weren't even in the country. As for whether Yun Cuiting actually existed, he thought probably not. But… “Why are you asking this?”

"It's okay, your sister is with two men right now."

Jiang Wanli's eyes widened upon hearing this: "What? What? My sister is with two men? No way!"

Could it be that after her heartbreak, she quickly sought out several handsome men to keep her company? This... this...

"By the way, where are you?" Jiang Wanli suddenly realized she hadn't asked yet.

Xiao Qingshi answered his question: "Z City".

Upon hearing the city he was currently in, Jiang Wanli seemed to remember something and asked him if he had any photos of the two men.

Xiao Qingshi gritted his teeth and sent the photo to Jiang Wanli. At the time, he wanted to see what the two of them looked like, so he took the photo by zooming in on his phone.

After Jiang Wanli saw the people in the photo clearly, she smiled and said, "You mean those two? They are our cousins, my uncle's sons. My mother used to be from Z City."

That's why Jiang Wanli asked him for photos after hearing that he was in Z city.

After learning about the Yu family, Xiao Qingshi realized that Wan Ge and the others were here because the hotel they were in was owned by a yoga company. Wan Ge was probably just out for a beach vacation with the two of them. It turned out that he had misunderstood.

Hearing this answer, Xiao Qingshi breathed a sigh of relief. Even though Jiang Wanli said that Wan Ge Yun Cui Ting didn't have a house, he still felt there was something fishy going on. He still firmly believed that Wan Ge was that person. Although he didn't know for the time being why the other party didn't want to acknowledge him, he was certain it was her.

Xiao Qingshi kept an eye on Wan Ge, and sure enough, they didn't stay at the hotel for long. After lunch, they left the hotel and returned to the Yu family home.

Xiao Qingshi looked down at the message his assistant had sent him: the Yu family would be hosting a banquet tomorrow night, and his assistant had already received the invitation.

Xiao Qingshi's status meant that countless people would send him invitations every year, but he didn't like attending banquets. Even if someone had a special status, he would just meet them briefly, give them a gift, and leave. Therefore, Wan Ge had never met him before.

His assistant will deliver the invitation to him by tomorrow night.

The following evening, a large number of people arrived at the Yu family's residence; they were all prominent figures in Z City.

Xiao Qingshi entered smoothly with the invitation. Although the person receiving him didn't know who he was, he thought he was very handsome.

After opening the invitation, they discovered that the recipient was from the Xiao family, and they wondered why the recipient would specifically come to their family's banquet.

Generally, when such banquets are held, it goes without saying that the guests are prominent figures in the city, but sometimes invitations are also extended to people of high status and position from other cities.

However, due to time and distance issues, some people who receive invitations will only send a gift and will not come in person.

Although the Xiao family has subsidiaries here, they generally don't send invitations to subsidiaries unless the subsidiary is doing exceptionally well, in which case they might consider sending one within the same city.

If the other party is not from the Xiao family in another city, then they are likely the general manager of a subsidiary.

After entering the banquet scene, Xiao Qingshi quickly found the person he was looking for. Looking at Wan Ge in front of him, Xiao Qingshi immediately went up to her.

When Wan Ge saw him, she was a little surprised: "Sister-in-law... no, Brother Qing Shi, what are you doing here?"

The girl next to Wan Ge looked at Xiao Qing with a puzzled expression and asked softly, "Who is my cousin?"

He's incredibly handsome! I've never seen him before. Where is he from?

Wan Ge leaned close to her cousin's ear and whispered a few words in her ear.

The other person was initially shocked, then tried to calm themselves down, and finally said with a smile, "You guys talk first."

After saying that, he wisely left.

Xiao Qingshi wanted to reach out and grab her hand, but Wan Ge casually picked up a small cake from the side, seemingly avoiding his touch without intentionally doing so.

"What did you just say to her?" Xiao Qingshi had a bad feeling. To be honest, since she was a relative of theirs, Xiao Qingshi didn't want them to misunderstand anything, so as to avoid her becoming a stumbling block to his relationship with Wan Ge in the future.

Wan Ge slowly said, "What else can I say? I can only tell her that you are my brother's boyfriend. Anyway, we're all family, so we have to meet even if we're late. It's okay if she finds out now."

When Xiao Qingshi heard her say that, he couldn't hold back any longer. He pulled her to a corner and then lowered his head to kiss her.

Just as he was about to kiss her, Wan Ge suddenly pushed him away, saying, "What are you doing!"

Xiao Qingshi's eyes reddened slightly, and his handsome face was filled with sadness: "I was wrong, please don't be angry anymore, okay? I will never make you angry again."
