The crowd was even more puzzled and shocked. Who exactly was this Huaxia man? Did he really have such ability to bring down the Duwei Clan?

"Young Master Stone, do you have some secret channels or something? Stop keeping us in suspense and quickly tell us what's going on."

Someone immediately urged.

"Yeah, hurry up and tell us what's happening."

The crowd had complete faith in this young man standing before them, for no other reason than because he was the eldest son of the Aslimo Group!

Although the Aslimo Group was no match for the Harry Clan, it was still a prestigious family in the United States. If Stone made such confident assertions, what he said must be true!

While everyone was persistently asking Stone for answers, in the crowd, a woman suddenly felt a moment of trance.

"Huaxia? I wonder where Ye Qiu is now... I also wonder if he's doing well, and whether he thinks of me just like I think of him."

If Ye Qiu were present at that moment, he would certainly recognize the woman in front of him. She was none other than Mia'er, the flight attendant with whom Ye Qiu had once had a relationship beyond friendship!

Tonight, even though Mia'er had only dressed simply, she was naturally stunning. Even in light makeup, she still outshone all the surrounding celebrities.

Stone, who had been bragging in the crowd, also saw Mia'er at that moment. With just a simple glance, she made his heart stop.

What is beauty? In the past, Stone thought those celebrities and models were beauties. But now, he realized he was wrong! So wrong!

What is beauty? The woman before him was the real beauty!

Although she hadn't spoken or made any moves, just slightly furrowing her brows, Stone was still amazed by her.

He swore that the woman in front of him was at least a hundred, a thousand times more beautiful than any model or celebrity.

In the next second, he didn't care about bragging with the crowd anymore. He held a glass of red wine and walked toward Mia'er like a gentleman.

"Hi, beautiful, what are you thinking about?"

Stone's words brought Mia'er back to her senses. She merely glanced at Stone and didn't intend to acknowledge him. She was about to turn and leave.

Mia'er was the most beautiful woman Stone had ever seen; how could he let her just leave?

Stone turned and blocked Mia'er's path again, smiling as he said, "Beautiful, why leave in such a hurry? Let me buy you a drink?"

It seemed as if Stone was asking Mia'er, but in fact, he didn't wait for her response. He snapped his fingers, signaling a waiter to bring another glass of red wine.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't drink," Mia'er declined without a second thought.

But even though she refused, Stone still had no intention of letting Mia'er leave.

He continued to smile and said, "How about this, let me invite you for a dance."

"I don't dance," Mia'er was getting impatient. She had never seen someone as shameless as him. Was her message not clear enough?

Most people at the party were influential figures, but he didn't even have a bit of gentlemanly demeanor.

Stone didn't know that Mia'er had already categorized him with flies.

But maybe, even if he knew, he wouldn't give up pestering Mia'er. In his view, seeing such a beautiful woman and not having something pleasurable happen would go against God's will.

"It's okay, I can teach you. You know, our Aslimo Group values etiquette dances the most."

Stone subtly hinted at his family background between expressions, trying to let Mia'er know that he was wealthy and powerful!

Whether Mia'er truly didn't understand his implication or not, she remained unmoved by Stone's words.

This left Stone a bit dumbfounded. Usually, upon revealing his identity, any beauty would obediently follow him. But now, he failed!

This situation made Stone a bit embarrassed, and the surrounding onlookers noticed this, causing someone to speak up immediately.

"This pretty lady, he's the future heir of the Aslimo family. If you go with him, you'll surely enjoy a life free of worries."

"That's right, a man like Young Master Stone, with looks and background, is undoubtedly the dream man in everyone's heart!"

"Hey, if I were a woman, I would've married Young Master Stone long ago."

Those saying these words were undoubtedly all trying to ingratiate themselves with Stone. If this all panned out, Stone would likely look out for them in the future.

Hearing the words around him, Stone felt a bit smug, his head involuntarily lifted slightly, as he looked at Mia'er again.

But Mia'er seemed oblivious to the comments around her, maintaining her aloof attitude.

Her demeanor left everyone dumbfounded. What was this woman thinking? Could they not sway her even like this?

...

At this moment, Ye Qiu was walking aimlessly on the giant cruise ship.

For him, parties or banquets like this were the least interesting to attend. However, Harlevi had strongly invited him, and he found it hard to decline, so he reluctantly agreed.

As Ye Qiu was walking, he noticed a group of people gathered ahead, with a man and woman standing in the middle. It wasn't hard to see that the woman had no interest in the man, yet the man shamelessly continued to pester her.

"Hmm?"

When Ye Qiu got a clear look at the woman's face, he was surprised. He never expected to see Mia'er here.

Immediately, he walked over with a smile.

"Hello, beautiful, may I have this dance?"

Mia'er was already annoyed by Stone's pestering, and upon hearing another invitation to dance, she instinctively wanted to refuse. However, before she could speak, she found the voice remarkably familiar.

Suddenly, Mia'er turned her head and saw that face she had been longing for day and night, leaving her stunned!

With a dazed expression, she looked at Ye Qiu. Just like Ye Qiu, she couldn't believe she would meet him here.

Ye Qiu's sudden appearance caught everyone by surprise. Didn't this guy see Young Master Stone chatting up this beauty? Was he here to compete with Young Master Stone for the woman?
