That's why he told Yuanya, "If you encounter him again, be cautious, the Duan family is involved in the underworld."
She jolted in surprise. Never in her wildest dreams would she connect Duan Jingwen, a man of such gentle demeanor, with the underworld.
She started feeling somewhat afraid…
Bei Yunhuan's gaze fell on the invitation again, "For this banquet, you will be attending with me."
"...Oh."
No matter how their private relationship was, it was important to maintain appearances in public.
Therefore, for the Duan's banquet, more than half of East Dragon's elites made their appearance.
Even though it wasn't her first time attending such a banquet, Yuanya couldn't get used to it and silently followed Bei Yunhuan, standing by like a vase.
Suddenly, she noticed a painting hanging on the wall.
Originally, she thought it was a replica, but upon closer inspection, it seemed... it seemed to be an original piece!
