The next day.
Han Zhiqing's birthday party.
Han Yan invited many celebrities from Ningcheng, almost everyone in the upper echelons of society. Today was not only his daughter's birthday, but also an announcement, a gesture of his stance toward Ye Lin.
The Han family undoubtedly benefited the most from the engagement with Ye Lin. Not only did they repay a debt of gratitude, but they also gained the powerful backing of the Dragon King Palace.
With this connection, the Han family will surely surpass its current state in the future, not only catching up with the Luo family, but also becoming a household name throughout China, respected by all.
Han Yan was very happy, greeting people with a smile. His kind face and gentle smile revealed nothing about his true thoughts.
Ye Lin had already arrived, and Han Yan nodded in greeting from a distance. Because of the upcoming activities, he didn't rush over to chat with Ye Lin.
Ye Lin responded politely.
But in his heart he held it in utter contempt.
Han Zhiqing is not yet his woman, and the Han family is not his property. He did not immediately retaliate against Han Yan's ulterior motives. Once everything is successful, his attitude towards Han Yan will naturally not be as harmonious as it is now.
At that time, Han Yan was not yet of any use, so that's another story.
To think that one can get on his Dragon King Palace to bring glory to the Han family is simply a pipe dream!
Thinking that he would soon see Han Zhiqing and hold her hand, Ye Lin couldn't help but smile wickedly. The people standing next to him looked at him as if he were crazy and subconsciously kept their distance from him.
Ye Lin didn't feel anything was wrong, thinking that they had seen his domineering aura and were too respectful to stand too close.
Guests arrived one after another, and some of Han Zhiqing's friends also gradually arrived.
Cai Jingya, Wang Gang, and Mu Xiaoxiao came together. Ye Lin saw Wang Gang, and Wang Gang also happened to see Ye Lin.
Wang Gang smiled sweetly at Ye Lin, his adorable appearance was very attractive. If she hadn't spoken, seeing Wang Gang like this, she would definitely have been unable to resist going up to chat with him.
But those who know better understand very well that Wang Gang's unique voice is quite frightening; even in the dark, one might feel as if a much stronger man is lying beneath them.
In that scene, whether or not there was a stab was irrelevant; it was just a bit of a stretch to ask someone to go to the man.
Ye Lin forced a smile and a nod at Wang Gang, suppressing his nausea, as a greeting.
If he hadn't known in advance that yesterday's auction would have assigned Wang Gang to be in charge of the hilltop development project in the northern district, he wouldn't have had any further contact with Wang Gang.
Ye Lin was very confident that if he were to take action, dealing with Wang Gang would be a piece of cake.
However, his idea was not wrong. Wang Gang was attracted by his charm. Even though the social gathering that day was not pleasant, Wang Gang was still fascinated by him.
Wang Gang obeyed him without question. Even if she actually obtained the mountain development project in the North District, she would still use it. On the surface, the Wang family was still handling the project, but in reality, the Dragon King Palace had already invested and taken control of everything.
Although the officially signed contract cannot be changed, Ye Lin is very confident. He believes that Wang Gang is so infatuated with him that he can't live without him. Even without that contract, now that the Dragon King Palace has intervened, how could a mere third-rate Wang family be a match for him?
When the time is right, we can annex the Wang family and then it will become ours.
Thinking of this, Ye Lin's wicked smile reappeared.
This time, those people stood even further away.
"Do you think this guy has something wrong with his head? Aren't you the director of the mental hospital? Should we send someone to take him back?" someone standing at a distance whispered, while watching Ye Lin, who had suddenly gone crazy, warily.
"I dare not. Although I can tell that he has mental problems, I am afraid that if I take him back, my group of patients will be infected and become even more insane. What would I do then?" The director of the mental hospital took another step back to avoid being infected.
"Don't you have private rooms? Why not just lock him up there by himself?"
"Let's forget about it. Who knows if it's airborne? If it really is, it could harm people."
"That's true, we should stay away from him."
"That's what I think too."
As he spoke, Ye Lin's area suddenly became empty. Within a five-meter radius, apart from Ye Lin standing there, no one else dared to approach, fearing that they might actually be infected by the air and inexplicably follow him in showing that inhuman smile.
Some people even noticed that this was the same person who got into an argument with someone at yesterday's auction, but ended up losing the argument and being carried out and thrown out.
They thought he would cause a scene, but to their surprise, he was surrounded by a group of people and slunk away. His cowardly appearance is still funny to them now.
The guests have almost all arrived.
Luo Chen arrived almost exactly on time.
Zhao Meng'er originally wanted to come, but unfortunately she wasn't familiar with Han Zhiqing, so she didn't.
The person accompanying Luo Chen was Luo Luo.
As Luo Chen entered the hall, a group of people immediately came over to greet him, each with a friendly expression and offering words of concern.
There was no way around it; both Luo Chen's looks and his identity were incredibly attractive. Compared to Ye Lin on the other side, Luo Chen's side had several circles of people greeting him.
Ye Lin stood alone, looking on with a gloomy expression. He thought to himself, "Why is a Dragon King trying to curry favor with a good-for-nothing like this? Are these people blind?"
If it weren't for the problems with that project in the West District, Luo Chen wouldn't be so successful now; he would have been disliked and avoided by everyone.
but.
Raphael has successfully infiltrated the Luo family and become Luo Chen's secretary. With Raphael's strength, he will surely be able to bring down the Luo family. At that time, who will be in charge of the Luo family will be a real question.
Thinking about this.
Raphael has been at the Luo family's place for two days now, and there's still no news. Has he not yet succeeded in gaining Luo Chen's trust?
Puzzled, Ye Lin took out his phone and checked it.
He discovered that Raphael hadn't sent him a message; instead, he had updated his WeChat Moments.
The first one.
It's a selfie of Raphael, accompanied by a hot pot, with the caption: "First day as a secretary, a bit tough. I didn't expect my boss to have that kind of hobby, but unfortunately he didn't do anything about it. Oh well, I'll treat myself to hot pot and keep working hard tomorrow."
The second one.
It's a picture of Raphael working bored, with the caption: "All done, looking very serious. It's a pity the boss didn't see it. He went out without even his secretary. What kind of person is he?"
"..."
Ye Lin fell into deep thought. It was true that Raphael was to become a secretary, but she wasn't really going to be a secretary. Had she forgotten her mission?
Even though I had already warned him that Luo Chen was a lecherous man and ugly, how did Raphael manage to get into character so quickly?
