Chapter 920: He’s So Charming

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

“General Helian is finally here!”

“Quick, quick, quick, let’s squeeze to the front!”

Upon hearing that General Helian had returned, all the ladies in the banquet hall became excited

Lan Ling-Er stood at a spot that was the most conspicuous so that she could ensure that she would be the first thing General Helian would see when he came in.

There was a commotion at the door and everyone turned to look and waited.

In a moment, a tall figure in white came in gracefully, his escorts naturally making way for him. The man seemed to glow with an aura, attracting everyone’s attention as soon as he entered the hall.

“Aaaah… the General is so handsome…”

“He’s so charming in that military uniform!”

“Oh, my prince charming!”

…

One second before, the girls had been very composed and graceful. But as soon Helian Qingyu appeared, they all went mad and screamed excitedly.

Lan Ling-Er seized the opportunity. When she saw Helian Qingyu come in, she immediately greeted him with a glass of wine. “General Helian!”

With a sense of self-entitlement, she puffed out her bosom proudly and greeted him. However, General Helian only glanced at her briefly, then strode away with an expressionless face.

Damn it. Did he not recognize her?

Lan Ling-Er remembered back during a charity event, she had the privilege of having a meal together with Helian Qingyu.

At that time, Helian Qingyu had even personally praised her acting skills. How could he forget her now?

Maybe he did not forget it. He just didn’t notice her.

It must be because of the girls behind her; they were too noisy.

Lan Ling-Er was good at making excuses for herself. She remained very confident, considering herself to be the most qualified one.

Ignoring everyone around him, Helian Qingyu strode past the guests and went over to greet his father first.

“Father!”

“You certainly took your time!” Helian Wei said in a hushed voice. He had specially prepared this banquet for his son but his son ended up coming late, making everyone wait for him for nearly half an hour. How was that appropriate?

Though Helian Qingyu had always been a dauntless person, he still respected his father. He explained, “I had something up and was caught in it.”

“What is it that could make you not obey my orders?”

Though Helian Wei wanted to see his son, he still had to order him to return in his name as president.

“I went to meet a very important friend.”

“You think military orders are to be trifled with? Outrageous!”

Helian Wei was somewhat unhappy.

No matter what his father said, Helian Qingyu listened. Inadvertently, he caught a glimpse of a girl sitting at the side, stifling her laughter.

Hmm?

Isn’t that Jing Xi?

It’s really Jing Xi!

Helian Qingyu widened his eyes in disbelief as he looked at the beautiful girl. He almost did not recognize her.

Helian Qingyu strode past his parents, ignoring Helian Wei’s nagging, and came over to Jing Xi. “Jing Xi? Is it really you? I didn’t expect you to come.”

What a big surprise. Originally, he had wanted to invite her to the banquet but she refused. He had even thought of using Huo Yunshen later to convince her to come but he never thought that she was already here.

Helian Qingyu had not even bothered with anyone after coming to the banquet, and yet the first thing he did was to sit beside Jing Xi. His actions made all the girls at the banquet extremely jealous.

They all wanted to know: What is that girl’s relationship with Helian Qingyu?

What did she do that she was able to win Helian Qingyu’s good grace?

The most jealous and the most hateful was Lan Ling-Er. Just now, she had taken the initiative to greet Helian Qingyu, but the man acted as though he did not see her. Now he was sitting right next to Jing Xi, talking and laughing. How infuriating!

Who is Jing Xi really?

Why is the president’s family being so courteous to her?
