23 Chapter 23: Yu Family Party [Seeking Collection]_1

In the private parking apron outside the Yu Family Courtyard, numerous luxury cars were parked.

The Yu house was unusually brightly decorated tonight. The poolside was filled with water toys, and sun umbrellas were placed on the empty ground, waiting for guests to use.

The top chefs and servants invited from outside were also going in and out. Everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.

Looking at the scene now, it's hard to believe that this party was just a whim of the Yu family's young master. From mention in the afternoon to such a grand scene in the evening, it indirectly displays the capability and means of the Yu family!

Five o'clock in the evening.

Yu Yuan stood at the entrance of the courtyard with a smile on his face, having changed into a pure white suit for the evening. Despite his solemn demeanor, he still retained the refined and charismatic air of a young man.

Needless to say, Yu Yuan was indeed a rare handsome young man.

However, his handsomeness did not in any way manifest in his character!

Deep down, this guy was nothing more than a complete second-generation rich brat, who used his family's power to run amok in the town. His exterior was glitzy, but his interior was rotten!

"President Yu, how did you find the time to hold a party amidst your busy schedule? I thought you'd forgotten about us friends!"

A young man in his mid-twenties, dressed in a suit, walked into the Yu Family Courtyard from the parking lot. As soon as he entered, he started buttering up Yu Yuan, who was standing at the door to welcome him.

"Not at all! President Zhang, who started from scratch and now possesses tens of millions in assets, is the true genius that we should learn from," Yu Yuan shook hands with the young man, exchanged a few polite words, and then waved his arm inward, smiling, "Please come in!"

The young man naturally entered the Yu Family Courtyard with a smile.

"Hello, President Yu, it's been a long time since we've seen each other." Another wealthy young master came from the parking lot.

The people entering the Yu Family Courtyard now were either high-ranking employees of Yu Yuan's company or rich kids from the same circle since childhood, but there were hardly any serious business partners!

All the people who came and went referred to Yu Yuan as "President Yu". This was not a random remark. After all, Yu Yuan had a wealthy father who not only let his son serve as the deputy chairman of an important branch company to hone his skills, but also specifically set up a medium-sized investment advisory company for his son to sharpen his business acumen.

Although Yu Tao knew that his son Yu Yuan was wasteful and causing trouble, he was still the only heir of the Yu family. If he died, most of the Yu family's assets could only be inherited by this son.

So, in order for the Yu Family to continue to prosper, Yu Tao had no choice but to cultivate his son as best he could.

In order to pave a smoother path for his son, more than a year ago, he started looking for matchmakers and, after paying a hefty price, negotiated a marriage agreement with another first-class family in Shanghai City, the Ding Family, for their children.

That's right, the bride-to-be was Ding Li Meng!

The marriage of the two families would create an unimaginable impact in Shanghai City. There was even a possibility that Yu Yuan, because of his relationship with Ding Li Meng, could enter the Ding Family's power circle. Although it's unlikely that he would take over the Ding Family, he could still gain a share of the pie through his relations with them. In that case, the Yu Family's status as a top-tier family would be within reach!

Of course, the premise of fulfilling this dream is that Yu Yuan does not mess things up.

Unfortunately, Yu Yuan did mess it up...

For his fiancée, who was his equal in both family background and status, and was even exceedingly beautiful, Yu Yuan actually used the same methods he used on ordinary women!

He was domineering with an extreme possessiveness!

Upon discovering that Ding Li Meng was getting too close to another man, Yu Yuan lost his temper. He used his power to order five or six of his home security forces to separate the two. What's outrageous was that when the man persistently pursued Ding Li Meng, he even ordered his men to beat the man to death!

The man he killed was Jia Yan...

But after the incident, Yu Yuan became afraid!

What he feared was not the act of killing a man. He did not need to hide such things - he just had to say that he had a conflict with someone else and his men accidentally killed the man. His father Yu Tao would definitely take care of it!

What Yu Yuan was afraid of was Ding Li Meng! If she were to go home and tell them that he had once hit her, then this highly anticipated marriage that his father Yu Tao had put so much effort into would definitely be called off!

It cannot be denied that although Yu Yuan was a troublemaker, he still had some wits about him...

He began to exploit the deceased 'Jia Yan'!

Using this man, who although did not have a romantic relationship with Ding Li Meng, was her friend, he threatened Ding Li Meng!

If she did not cooperate, the 'Jia Yan', who was under Yu Yuan's control, would die!

Yu Yuan knew that if he said this, Ding Li Meng, a kindhearted girl, would definitely take the bait.

As expected, everything was going according to his calculations.

Ding Li Meng took the bait and even agreed to him, to enter the Yu family now, to start 'adapting' to life with the Yu family!

Their marriage was scheduled for half a year later.

Everything was going smoothly, wasn't it?

While Yu Yuan entertained his friends, he glanced at a certain room on the first floor of the palace-like mansion of the Yu Family. That was Ding Li Meng's room...

The only regrettable thing was that he could not dare to force anything with Ding Li Meng yet.

His fiancée was too beautiful and had a top-tier temperament. Despite having been with so many women, none of them could surpass her!

However, he would soon be her husband so what was there to be afraid of?

Thinking about this, the curve at the corner of Yu Yuan's mouth grew more pronounced.

"Yu Yuan!"

While Yu Yuan was slightly distracted, a loud voice rang out from across the parking lot.

Who is that? They didn't call me President Yu?!

Yu Yuan's face showed a bit of annoyance. From that single phrase, he felt as if whoever was coming didn't know their place!

Yu Yuan looked over, and then, he laughed.

The person was a stout man, his face covered in grotesque layers of fat. His hair, combed back and dyed purple, stood straight atop his head.

The fat man was chewing gum, the motion causing the layers of fat on his face to twitch.

This man's ridiculous appearance was so unique, so high-end, that ordinary people couldn't appreciate the level of artistry it entailed.

Of course, his identity was even more significant.

He was Li Xueshen, the sole heir of the Li family, one of Shanghai City's top-tier families!

"Haha, isn't this Xueshen? Come, I haven't seen you since you said you were going abroad to study. How have you been?"

Yu Yuan was more than welcoming to the uninvited guest. After all, his party was just for fun and he hadn't expected any big shots to show up.

If Li Xueshen showed up, then this would undoubtedly significantly elevate the status of the party.

"Huh?" Yu Yuan focused his attention on the person next to the stout man.

Walking towards the Yu Family Courtyard with Li Xueshen was a girl.

This girl had a pure and adorable face, with an expression that evoked sympathy and seemed almost pitiable.

She wasn't tall, only about 1.5 meters in height, yet she had a remarkably attractive figure. Combined with her childlike face, she was incredibly alluring to men.

Seeing this girl closely following Li Xueshen, Yu Yuan couldn't help but let a teasing smile appear on his face.

"Good for you," he said to Li Xueshen, making a gesture that only men would understand.

Li Xueshen also laughed: "Hehe, please make way for me. Thanks!"

Li Xueshen's words left Yu Yuan confused. What did he mean by 'make way for him'?

However, Yu Yuan didn't bother to clarify it at the moment. Instead, he responded with an obliging laugh and pointed towards the courtyard, saying, "Please come in, I'll find you in a while, and we can catch up."

"Hehe, sounds good, I've been meaning to talk, about my so-called studying abroad but actually going to jail."

Li Xueshen chewed on his gum and walked into the Yu Family's house. The girl trailing behind him slowly followed.

Her eyes were fixed on Yu Yuan with an indescribable look! If forced to describe it, it was as if she were gazing at a sworn enemy.

Her slender fingers reached into the small purse she had with her...

Just as she was about to pull something out of it.

"Hey, Jia Lin, come over here!" Li Xueshen called out from inside the courtyard.

The girl shuddered, her face suddenly turning pale. Startled by the voice, her purse almost fell to the ground.

A bead of sweat the size of a pea slid down her cheek. Fortunately, she wasn't wearing heavy makeup, so her face didn't turn into a mess because of the sweat.

She lowered her head, quickly walking past Yu Yuan, not exchanging a word with him from beginning to end.

Jia Lin?

Yu Yuan couldn't help but turn his head to look at this peculiar girl.

He felt he had heard the name Jia Lin somewhere...
