Despite their Lu family's status and their position in Shanghai, they were far from reaching Ye Bai's level.

In other words, their next chance to see Mr. Ye is probably a long time coming.

Since that's the case, and the opportunity is right in front of us, we must seize it!

Even if Ru Ping and Mr. Ye in front of her didn't fall in love at first sight, who says they can't develop feelings for each other over time?

While Wang Xueqin was anxiously waiting for Ye Bai's reply, Lu Zhenhua, who was standing to the side, had already figured out Wang Xueqin's little scheme, and he immediately frowned.

What kind of decorum is it for a daughter of a respectable family to stay in an outsider's home?!

But then I realized it was Ye Bai...

Lu Zhenhua hesitated for a moment, but Ye Bai spoke up immediately.

"It will probably depend on what Ms. Lu herself thinks."

The subtext of Ye Bai's words was clearly a rejection.

After all, in his eyes, Lu Ruping seeing him was like seeing a raging flood or a ferocious beast.

Let alone staying at the Paramount Ballroom, I'd probably avoid it even if I only saw it once.

However, when Wang Xueqin heard his words, she felt that there was a glimmer of hope.

As if afraid he might change his mind, Wang Xueqin hurriedly said.

"Then let's go ask Ruping."

A moment later, when the question was presented to Lu Ruping, her eyes widened in surprise.

Should we stay at the Paramount for a while longer?

Chapter Sixty-Three Lu Ruping: I'll have to trouble Mr. Ye from now on!

The private doctor standing nearby was reporting Lu Ruping's condition to Ye Bai.

The bullet grazed my brow, thankfully it didn't hit my eye.

However, the violent impact of a bullet can also cause a concussion.

The private doctor did indeed advise Lu Ruping to rest well at this time and reduce strenuous activity.

Ye Bai listened and nodded nonchalantly.

Knowing the general situation gave him a better understanding of the circumstances, lest something really happened to the guest at his Paramount.

After the private doctor finished speaking, he immediately connected with Xiao Aqiao, who was standing next to him.

Thinking that he would prepare more gifts for the Lu family later to make amends, he decided to put the matter to rest.

Unexpectedly, just as he was thinking this, Lu Ruping, who was standing next to him, seemed to have mustered up her courage and spoke up.

"Then I'll leave it to Mr. Ye."

"Okay, Xiao Aqiao will deliver it..."

Before Ye Bai could even finish saying the word "guest" to see the guest off, he suddenly realized what Lu Ruping had just said.

His hands paused for once.

What the hell?

Lu Ruping actually agreed to stay at the Paramount Ballroom?!

Has her brain been squeezed by a door?!

Seeing that Ye Bai seemed a little stunned, Lu Ruping thought she hadn't explained herself clearly enough.

This time she pursed her lips even more and said it again.

"I'm following the doctor's advice, and I'm afraid I'll be staying at your residence for a while."

823

As she said this, Lu Ruping could clearly feel her heart pounding rapidly.

Clearly, her inner world was far more composed than it appeared on the surface when she said those words.

Even as she said this, she was still somewhat taken aback by her own behavior.

Wang Xueqin, standing to the side, had clearly seen through her daughter's intentions; she was obviously interested in Ye Bai.

This prompted her to quickly step in and become an accomplice.

"Mr. Ye, I'm entrusting Ru Ping to your care for the next few days..."

This is the perfect opportunity to get closer to Ye Bai!

Ruping, you absolutely must seize this opportunity!

At that moment, this scene also caught the eye of Lu Zhenhua, who was standing to the side.

A hint of melancholy, like a hero past his prime, flashed in his eyes. He then sighed and said nothing.

Seeing this scene, the most astonished person was Lu Mengping, who was standing to the side.

She glanced at Wang Xueqin, then at Lu Ruping, and then at Ye Bai.

How could Ru Ping want to stay at the Paramount after such a short time?!

She was completely baffled!

At this moment, Ye Bai, as the person involved, shared the same thoughts as Lu Mengping.

Seeing that Lu Ruping was willing to stay at the Paramount, Ye Bai didn't take it seriously.

I just felt that Lu Ruping was really cautious and timid.

Fearing a concussion, she preferred to stay at the Paramount, the place she least wanted to visit.

With this thought, Ye Bai immediately put the matter out of his mind and left first, citing the ball as an excuse.

As Ye Bai's figure disappeared, Wang Xueqin began to give Lu Ruping some pointers.

"Ruping, you've really got a head start now! Every cloud has a silver lining; this might just be your turning point!"

"You absolutely must listen to your mother this time. Don't throw a tantrum at the Paramount. Those men really like gentle and considerate personalities..."

Seeing Wang Xueqin's increasingly outrageous remarks, even the usually reserved Lu Ruping couldn't help but blush and interrupt her.

"mom!"

"Oh dear, what's wrong with that?!" Wang Xueqin was about to poke Lu Ruping's head as usual, but seeing that her daughter was injured, she let go of her finger.

Turning her gaze, Wang Xueqin suddenly saw three familiar figures walking in through the door, and she immediately shouted loudly.

"How did the three of you get in here? Weren't we supposed to be working today?"

The visitors happened to be the three musketeers from the application.

That is, He Shuhuan, Lu Erhao, and Du Fei.

As Wang Xueqin said, the three of them were originally waiting at the entrance of the Paramount Ballroom to get the latest news about the ball.

However, the sound of gunfire from inside the hall startled all the reporters outside.

This is clearly a serious matter.

The three of them waited anxiously outside.

Later, it was discovered that the police officers from the police station had taken Mrs. Yokota into custody and were the first to come out of the lobby.

This image immediately shocked all the media!

This is Mrs. Yokota.

Mrs. Yokota, who has countless connections and resources and can reach the military, political and business circles, as well as the underworld, was actually taken out by the police!

Suddenly, camera flashes and clicking sounds came from the doorway incessantly.

"Why is Mrs. Yokota being detained!?"

"Has Mrs. Yokota committed some serious crime?"

"Could you please tell me what happened?!"

A group of reporters quickly surrounded the police chief's car, asking for details.

Seeing that the reporter wasn't going to leave until he got to the bottom of things, the police chief had no choice but to nod to his secretary.

Seeing this, the secretary in the passenger seat rolled down the window and gave a brief explanation.

"Mrs. Yokota is Yoshiko Yamaguchi of the Tianlong Society. This has been confirmed by Mr. Ye of the Paramount Ballroom. She is currently wanted by the police and has been brought back."

After saying that, seeing the reporter who was still in shock and hadn't reacted yet, the secretary immediately gave the driver in the front seat a wink, and the car sped away.

It wasn't until the black smoke from the departing car sprayed all over a group of reporters that many of them gradually realized what was happening.

Mrs. Yokota is Yoshiko Yamaguchi?!

This is absolutely huge news for the Shanghai Stock Exchange!

All the reporters in the group started writing quickly, and the three applicants were no exception.

"Really?! Who would have thought?"
