Chapter 808: First Encounter
Though he may not know much, he"s been in this country for a while now and knew that the most powerful family was the Quan family. After that, it"s Emperor Yin. Only after that, do other n.o.bilities have a say.
Jun Yexuan was the grandson of Emperor Yin, which meant he had more power than the n.o.ble sir.
Feng Heng knew exactly what Qi Feng was thinking and stretched his lips, "There"s no way Emperor Yin will let Jun Yexuan be with Qingqing."
Qi Feng froze and took a second to understand. Emperor Yin definitely didn"t think Ms. Qiao was good enough.
After all, the Qi family was only powerful due to its corporate nature. Emperor Yin was looking for the highest politician"s daughter to marry his grandson.
As he thought about it, Qi Feng asked Feng Heng, "So, n.o.bility Sir, you want to try to go for Ms. Qiao again?"
Feng Heng stopped and his gaze returned to the necklace.
…
On the other side, Qiao Qing and the others started to fly again and made no more stops.
By the time they hovered above the Emperor"s palace, it was already nighttime.
The moment they got off the plane, the servants from the royal family greeted them.
The leader of the group looked over to Jun Yexuan, "Young master, Emperor Yin has set up dinner and is waiting for you. Please follow me."
Jun Yexuan grabbed Qiao Qing"s hand and walked alongside the servants.
When the group reached the dining room, they heard a kind and gentle voice.
"Yexuan, you"re here? Come, come, come. Come to grandpa. I"ve been waiting for you!"
The group looked over and saw a long table placed with delicacies.
At the head of the table sat a well-dressed old man, who appeared around 60 to 70 years of age.
On the left side of the old man sat an exquisite-looking woman.
Mu Jinghang sighed silently. He knew that Emperor Yin was a wolf in lamb"s skin.
His expression was kind and friendly, but he only greeted his third brother despite the large group.
He didn"t care. But it was obvious that he was making a point by not acknowledging Qingqing and brother Qi.
Selective ignorance was a form of disrespect.
Emperor Yin may not acknowledge Qiao Qing, but Jun Yexuan wasn"t going to let that happen.
He lifted the hand that held Qiao Qing"s hand, "Grandpa, this is my girlfriend and my future wife. This man here is my future brother-in-law."
Yin Lei"s expression changed a little bit while the woman beside him tightened her fists.
Yin Lei took only a few seconds to recover but found his smile, "So it"s young master Qi and Ms. Qiao from the Capital Country. h.e.l.lo there, I am Yexuan"s grandpa."
Qi Yusen was expressionless while Qiao Qing was speechless. These two siblings were scarily identical as they ignored him.
Compared to Yin Lei"s selective ignorance, Qi Yusen and Qiao Qing were obviously purposely trying to make this awkward.
The lack of response from the two made Yin Lei"s heart drop. Jun Yexuan"s mood, however, lifted. He was close to high-fiving them and clapping.
In front of Yin Lei"s ugly expression, Jun Yexuan walked to the table with Qiao Qing.
The moment they sat down, the girl at the table lifted her wine gla.s.s and smiled, "Yexuan, it"s been a while."
Qiao Qing looked over at her.
Xia Houshang met her gaze and appeared as relaxed and as graceful as ever.
Jn Yexuan eyed Xia Houshang and frowned, "Have we met before?"
Xia Houshang, "..."
