"Sister, you've scared Ye Chen away!" Qin Lan complained, shaking her sister Qin Ying's arm.

"I scared him away on purpose." Qin Ying was no longer flamboyant and became very quiet, a stark contrast to the "shrew" she had been moments before.

"Sister, you're usually so cool and calm, a complete goddess. How come you suddenly turned into a clown today!" Qin Lan teased.

Qin Lan and Qin Ying were twin sisters, almost identical in appearance with only subtle differences.

However, they shared the same looks but had completely different personalities.

Qin Lan was lively, like a woman as free as the wind.

Qin Ying was more reserved, reminiscent of "Little Dragon Lady."

But the argument Qin Ying had just had with Ye Chen was nothing short of a contest to see who could be more shameless.

Then, to Qin Lan's astonishment, the ultimate victor turned out to be Qin Ying. Sister had defeated the great rogue Ye Chen and become the new King of Rogues!

"I acted like a clown for your sake. I know all about Ye Chen; though his abilities are transcendent, he's not right for you!" Qin Ying said.

"Why not!" Qin Lan challenged. "How do you know we're not suitable for each other!"

"After today, Ye Chen will be the son-in-law of the Su Family, and you are the second young lady of the Qin Family. Do you think you're compatible?" Qin Ying said calmly. "If you want to be with him, let him dump those other women and be devoted solely to you!"

"..."

Qin Lan bit her lip and hung her head low, looking guilty.

Even though they were twins, Qin Lan was intimidated by Qin Ying because her sister was so outstandingly capable that it was frightening.

Yet, Qin Lan's feelings for Ye Chen had persisted over the many years, a very subtle emotion.

It was ineffable, yet just seeing Ye Chen made Qin Lan inexplicably happy—she knew this feeling meant she liked him.

Qin Lan knew Qin Ying had never been in love and didn't understand this subtle feeling, so she wanted to hint something to her sister.

"Sister, I want to say..." Qin Lan gathered her courage, but then hesitated, looking slightly nervous.

"Go ahead, I'm listening," Qin Ying said in a cool tone.

"I won't say it," Qin Lan decided it was better not to say it, because even if she did, her sister wouldn't understand.

"No, you must say it!" Qin Ying insisted.

"I'm saying... look, Mr. Yang is here!" Qin Lan pointed out.

"Mr. Yang?" Qin Ying looked in the direction Qin Lan was pointing and couldn't help but gasp. "What is he doing here!"

Qin Ying was shocked, and the banquet was already abuzz.

The reason was none other than an elderly man arriving at the venue.

He had short, silver-white hair, a face kind and benevolent. Despite his old age, he was full of vitality, moving with the stride of a dragon and the step of a tiger, naturally exuding charisma—this charisma was that of a commander of armies!

The moment this old man appeared, the banquet eerily came to a standstill, and many showed expressions of shock.

There were hundreds of people present, all notable figures in society, and even a hundred powerful magnates were gathered, making it an absolutely luxurious assembly.

At such a high-profile event, even international heavyweights like Chu Yanran attending wouldn't bring the venue to a standstill, let alone Chu Yanran was also at the banquet.

But this old man was different; his status was so high that it was frightening.

In front of this elderly man, even magnates and family heads had to bow.

"Haha, everyone, don't be nervous, I'm just an ordinary old man here today to ask for a marriage proposal for my grandson!" Yang Shouye's hearty laughter rang out, not wanting to make everyone tense because of him.

"..."

The room fell silent; no one dared to casually strike up a conversation, because when the old man got angry, heads could roll.

"My dear grandfather, you finally came. I've been anxiously waiting," Ye Chen approached Yang Shouye. After several years, the old man was still robust.

"I've been here for a while now, but I was blocked outside and couldn't get in, all because of the huge commotion you caused; the place was packed, and I almost revealed my identity when I came in," Yang Shouye was slightly annoyed, blaming Ye Chen for being too extravagant.

"Do you think I wanted this? Without making a big scene, I couldn't marry a wife!" Ye Chen argued with a sense of grievance. "You don't know how hard it is to get a wife nowadays, especially a beautiful and wealthy one; it's incredibly difficult. If I didn't make the event grand, how could they agree to marry their daughter to me?"

"You little rascal!" Yang Shouye burst out laughing.

Seeing Ye Chen chatting and laughing with the old man, everyone felt it was somewhat incredible.

Was such a legendary general so approachable?

Also, were these two really grandfather and grandson? That was utterly deceiving; they didn't even share the same surname!

"Old man, accompany my father-in-law and chat with him, see how he feels, and ask if he agrees," Ye Chen suddenly said.

"Haha, leave it to me!" Yang Shouye laughed heartily, then said, "Ye Chen's father-in-law, come over here, join me for a good chat!"

"Mr. Yang," Su Gangshan heard the summons and hurried over, smiling obsequiously at Yang Shouye.

Yang Shouye was one of Huaxia's few powerful leaders, holding a high authority worldwide, definitely one of Huaxia's legendary military figures!

Although Su Gangshan had seen Yang Shouye frequently on TV, facing him in person today made him somewhat nervous.

Ye Chen had just spoken with him, mentioning that an elder from his family would come to ask the Su Family for a marriage proposal.

Su Gangshan didn't take it seriously at the time, knowing Ye Chen had no parents; he thought Ye Chen was just going through the motions.

But who could have known, Ye Chen's grandfather would actually show up; seeing him in person, Su Gangshan was shocked.

Ye Chen was really good at setting people up!

Ye Chen was definitely a Ye; that couldn't be wrong.

But everyone in Huaxia knew this old leader's surname was Yang; how could they become family, even calling him grandfather?

Was this some kind of joke?

Earlier, when Yang Shouye appeared, Su Gangshan had been nonchalantly sitting with crossed legs; seeing Yang Shouye, he nearly fell off his stool.

This old man had too high a status, a status that commanded deep reverence.

So, with the hall full of VIPs and big shots, everyone was nearly scared out of their wits upon seeing this old man.

Yang Shouye was the supreme commander of the armed forces, Huaxia's most prestigious leader, exuding an aura of great power with every move.

Compared to him, Su Gangshan felt restrained, as this old man instilled awe in him.

"That antique cell phone, that phone number, that old man who answered the call—it was really this old man!" Zhang Xinlan muttered to herself.

Ye Chen had come from the countryside to the city, holding an antique cell phone with just one phone number inside.

The antique cell phone was in Zhang Xinlan's hands, but she had always been curious about who it was.

Ye Chen had hinted to her, but Zhang Xinlan had been somewhat skeptical; but now, she believed.
