Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xi Yiye, whose intentions had been seen through, saw her fan count drop by hundreds of thousands overnight. It was not even as good as before the scandal. The latest post was filled with scolding, all of them saying that she was scheming to ride on Xian Yu’s popularity.
Even the advertising products endorsed by Xi Yiye and the variety shows she partic.i.p.ated in were affected. For a moment, many partners canceled their collaboration with Xi Yiye.
Meanwhile, the other main character, Xian Yu, who was on the trending topic of the scandal, did not appear to speak up from the beginning to the end.
Many fans were very worried. From time to time, they would leave comments on his Weibo and private messages asking about him out of concern.
However, after three days, Xian Yu quietly created a huge surprise.

Fans:”?”
The worry in their chest turned into ecstasy because of the new alb.u.m.
“Kid, you’ve finally released a new song!!!”
“Buy, buy, buy. I’ll buy 20 sets first!”
“It’s still as good as ever!!! I love it, 1 love it!”
The likes and cheers in the comments were pure and clean. No one was blind enough to mention the scandal. They were all celebrating the release of the new alb.u.m happily. Many people discussed to support it and buy it offline.
There was no doubt about Xian Yu’s talent. Within three days of the alb.u.m’s release, he reached the top of all the major charts and even became a popular alb.u.m that everyone could sing.
Occasionally, when Murong Qiao went home, she would see Fifth Brother Xian Yu coming back. She would hear him humming in the practice room or trying out new styles of melody.
It was not until dinner time that Uncle Yang broke the silence and reported some news.
“Young Miss, there’s an invitation for you.”
Uncle Yang gently placed the invitation letter beside Murong Qiao.
Invitation?
Murong Qiao was puzzled. Then, she reached out and sized it up.
The invitation letter looked like a flower. There were pink and white petals on the cover, making it look fresh and elegant.
The contents of the invitation were roughly that Jiang Weiyang loved archery, so she invited her peers in the circle to play. It was not an official event, but the Jiang family was also a top-notch family in the circle.
“Jiang Weiyang?” She slowly read the name at the end.
Xian Yu, who was sitting beside his Little Sister, turned his head and glanced at her. “That young lady from the Jiang family?”
“Big Brother, you know her?” Murong Qiao looked up in surprise.
Xian Yu shook his head. “I don’t know her, but I’ve heard of her.”
“Jiang Weiyang is the youngest daughter of the Jiang family’s head. She has been famous for being very doted on since she was young. No matter how overboard her request is, her father can satisfy it,” he summarized.
Murong Qiao nodded slowly. Hearing her Fifth Brother’s introduction, she had a vague impression of this Young Miss Jiang.
At the same time, the same invitation letter was sent to the Huo family.
Huo Hong had called Huo Yichen to the study for this exact reason.
“Young Miss Jiang is holding a banquet. Go.” Huo Hong made the arrangements as soon as he arrived.
Huo Yichen was disgusted, but he nodded submissively without showing it on his face.
Huo Hong could not help but feel satisfied. “I saw the company’s report. You didn’t disappoint me.”
It was obvious that Huo Hong was in a good mood. It was rare for him to praise Huo Yichen, so he couldn’t help but say a few more words when his expression softened.
“Jiang Weiyang is also a good choice. Remember to build a good relationship with her,” he only mentioned.
Huo Yichen’s eyelashes fluttered imperceptibly, as if it was recounting the changes in his mood.
He only replied, “Yes.”
He naturally understood what Huo Hong meant.
Previously, he had always said that he and Murong Qiao had not made any progress. In that case, a marriage alliance with the Jiang family was a good alternative choice.
Then, Huo Hong said a few more words and asked Huo Yichen to leave.
Huo Yichen returned to his room with the invitation letter. As soon as he turned on his cell phone, he saw Murong Qiao’s message.
[Are you free tomorrow night?]
Huo Yichen hesitated for a moment.
[1 have to go to the Jiang family’s banquet tomorrow night], he explained.
He couldn’t disobey Huo Hong’s orders now.
The Jiang family?
Murong Qiao, who had received the news, was stunned.
She typed: [Jiang Weiyang?]
[Yes.]
After receiving an affirmative answer, Murong Qiao thought for a moment and knew that it was Huo Hong’s idea when she saw Huo Yichen say that he had to go-
[That’s perfect. I’ll go too], she replied.
Murong Qiao wasn’t interested at first, but after knowing that Huo Yichen was going, things were different.
Moreover, if she didn’t remember wrongly, the venue of the banquet seemed to have been modified to be an archery range. It was specially provided for those young masters and young misses to play and mingle. In short, there were many entertainment activities.
I’ll just treat it as another dating location.
Murong Qiao thought happily.
Time pa.s.sed and it was the next night.
Huo Yichen got out of the car and looked around the huge archery range in front of him.
It was not appropriate to call it an archery range. As a banquet venue, it naturally included various entertainment activities of various scales. The decoration was luxurious and beautiful.
The starry sky above the entrance was eye-catching. The style was minimalistic and white with warm yellow lamps. Coupled with the unique design, it made people unconsciously feel comfortable.
“Young Master Huo, this way please.” The servant led the way.
Huo Yichen was wearing a casual formal suit, and his exquisite hairstyle made him look as handsome as a G.o.d. He became the center of attention the moment he entered.
Huo Yichen didn’t seem to notice those “hot” gazes. After entering the venue, he walked to a corner and fiddled with his bow.
“That’s Huo Yichen, right? He’s so handsome…”
“Do you like him? If you like him, just go to him.”
“I’d better not. His expression is so cold. It’s not easy to approach him.”
Similar comments entered Jiang Weiyang’s ears.
He’s really good-looking.
She stared at Huo Yichen in a daze as he stood in the corner. Before she could control her legs, she’d walked over.
Huo Yichen was fiddling with his bow and arrow.
“h.e.l.lo.” A slightly shy voice sounded from beside him. “I’m Jiang Weiyang.”
Swoosh!
The arrow hit the bullseye.
Huo Yichen’s expression was cold. Although he had long sensed someone approaching, he did not respond.
“You seem to be very good at archery.” Jiang Weiyang could tell.
When Huo Yichen entered the venue, Jiang Weiyang’s heart couldn’t help but beat faster the moment she saw him. Her face flushed red.
Huo Yichen shot another arrow. “So-so.”
If he remembered correctly, Huo Xiuyuan was also coming back to the banquet.
Even if it was just for show, Huo Yichen had to talk to Jiang Weiyang in case Huo Xiuyuan found out about it and reported him. He won’t be able to explain his cold att.i.tude to Huo Hong.
“Not everyone can hit the bullseye.” Jiang Weiyang’s eyes lit up.
Her face turned even redder when she heard Huo Yichen speak.
This was the first time she had seen a boy who could move her heart so much. Therefore, even though she was ignored, Jiang Weiyang was not angry. Instead, the light in her eyes became brighter.
Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Huo Yichen with obvious interest.
Huo Yichen suppressed his impatience and his cold att.i.tude towards Jiang Weiyang appeared on his face.
However, Jiang Weiyang acted as if she couldn’t see anything and even took the initiative to move forward.
“This is the first time I’ve seen someone as good as you.” Jiang Weiyang was very interested in him.
Her hands were itching. “I wonder if you’re willing to compete with me?”
Jiang Weiyang had loved archery since she was young. With the help of her teacher and her own talent, she could be said to be a little genius. There were not many people her age who were better than her.
Huo Yichen was indeed an exception.
If her father had told her before today that he wanted her to marry into the Huo Family, she would have resisted. But now that she saw Huo Yichen in person, Jiang Weiyang felt that he was an excellent catch.
Her tone was innocent, with a hint of pampering and willfulness that had been pampered since she was young. Her soft words would make anyone’s ears go soft.
However, this didn’t include Huo Yichen.
He only felt that this person was noisy..
