The Duke's little ancestor slipped away again

"Everyone..."

On the stage, Asim's appearance silenced the entire venue.

"Everyone, I believe you all know my identity. As the host of today's banquet, I am very happy that you can take time out of your busy schedule to come. The first branch of the Art Empire in country Z has been established. I I think it will be a crisis for Pingcheng’s business, but it will also be a new business opportunity..."

"Excuse me, Special Assistant Asim, you said that the Art Empire will bring new business opportunities to our Pingcheng. Can you give us more details?"

As one of the few news media workers at the scene, I naturally seized the opportunity and asked questions dutifully.

"Sir, regarding your question, I think our president has the most say."

As soon as Asim finished speaking, the spotlight hit the door next to the stage.

Vaughn, who had changed into a white suit, appeared in front of everyone with silver hair. A brooch inlaid with aquamarine gems on his left chest was particularly eye-catching.

"Oh my God, is that a missing heartbeat?"

"It should be so. It is said that the lost heartbeat was sold by a mysterious man at a Sotheby's auction three years ago for a price of 1.69 billion. I didn't expect that this man would be the president of the Art Empire."

"As expected, Art, who controls the lifeblood of the entire Western economy, is so stunning that he dominates the crowd when we first meet him."

Amid the discussion, Mu Mu, who returned to the banquet hall with her brother first, also noticed the brooch on Vaughn's chest.

"It turns out it was at your place..."

"Hello everyone, my name is Waughan Tang Merwin. I'm new to Guibao. I hope you can help me."

Vaughn stood in front of the stage with a tall and stylish body, one hand behind his back, one hand on his chest, and his upper body slightly leaning forward. This was a standard royal etiquette, which fully demonstrated his politeness and quality.

"President Mo Wen, your special assistant just said that the arrival of the At Empire will bring new business opportunities to Pingcheng. Can you give us an overview?"

Being able to meet the legendary president of the Art Empire in person, reporters naturally would not miss any opportunity to ask questions.

"The Yate Empire is involved in a wide range of business areas, and we have branches in country F, Europe, Southeast Asia and other countries. I believe that every country and every city has its most special existence, and What I want to do is to integrate into this specialness. Of course, I also believe that Pingcheng’s foreign trade road will become smoother because of my joining.”

Vaughn's eyes have been staring at one position, and the light in his eyes is filled with possession and a trace of... love that cannot be ignored.

"President Mo Wen, if I'm not mistaken, this brooch of yours is a lost heartbeat. Is there any meaning behind your appearance today with this lost heartbeat?"

Another female reporter’s question directly asked the voices of all the women present.

"Bringing this lost heartbeat... I feel that if there is a chance, the lost thing will be found one day."

"Then let me ask, President, have you found it?"

Vaughan glanced at the badge of the reporter who asked the question, "City Headlines" reporter Chen Xi.

"Secret for now."

After taking a deep look in the direction of Mu Mu, Vaughan turned and left through the back door.

"What an old fox, he is so thoughtful."

Mu Jinqian naturally understood the meaning of Vaughan's words.

"We are all foxes of thousands of years, why are we playing such disgusting games?"

Mu Mu shrugged, carrying the hem of her skirt and walking towards the door.

"Don't go too far, we'll be back soon."

Mu Jinqian laughed. He looked at his sister who was leaving and only warned her without stopping her.

The banquet has just begun and it will probably take a long time to end. For Mu Mu, who doesn't like socializing, it's really boring to death. This is one of the reasons why she doesn't like working life.

In the back garden of the hotel, Mu Mu was sitting on the swing with her eyes closed, enjoying the breeze. The sudden sound of footsteps behind her made her feel inexplicably agitated.

"Mu Mu..."

Sang Yifeng's voice sounded from far away. Mu Mu stopped the swing, stood up, took a deep breath, turned around, and raised a professional smile.

"Brother Sang..."

"Still not used to this kind of situation?"

"It's not that I'm not used to it, I just don't like it."

……

The VIP room on the third floor.

Vaughn stood by the window and looked at the two figures chatting in the back garden, his face so dark it looked like he could drip ink.

"Mumu, tomorrow is the first day of the new year. I have reserved a seat at Shangpinzhai..."

"Although it's summer, it's still very cold at night, and I'm worried about typhoid fever."

The white suit jacket fell on Mu Mu's exposed beautiful back.

"Why are you here?"

Mu Mu subconsciously closed the white coat around her body. Instead of smelling the unpleasant smell of tobacco, she smelled the smell of the red wine she had just drank.

"You secretly drink by yourself!"

"...I just woke up. Do you want something to drink? I can take you home later."

Vaughan twitched the corner of his mouth helplessly and pointed to the VIP room on the third floor.

"Then ask someone to talk to my brother, so that he won't be anxious when he can't find me later."

Mu Mu raised his head with an expectant look on his face.

"it is good."

Vaughn put his arm around Mu Mu's shoulders and held her in his arms. The two smiled at each other and walked towards the back door of the hotel, leaving Sang Yifeng alone in the empty garden feeling dejected.

"Mumu, can we really not go back?"

-

"Stay away from that person in the future."

"I didn't come looking for him on my own initiative."

In the elevator, Mu Mu, who was already upset, stubbornly broke away from Vaughan's arm holding her.

"That means you didn't refuse thoroughly enough."

"It's my business, you don't have to worry about it."

"……Can you say that again?"

Vaughan's voice was terrifyingly deep, but with Mu Mu's character, how could he be afraid.

"So what if I say it again, who do you think you are? If you want to meddle in my affairs, you must first identify yourself first and then...well..."

Vaughan directly pressed the person against the elevator wall, performing the highest level of silence - sealing lips with lips.

"...well...well..."

Mu Mu felt that her mind went blank, and her chest seemed to explode from the pressure, so she began to hit the man in front of her as hard as she could.

"Idiot, you need to breathe when kissing, you know?"

Seeing Mu Mu's chest panting violently and his flushed face, Vaughn's mood suddenly became better.

"I didn't answer...I...of course I know how to ventilate..."

"Hahaha……"

"Smile, smile, just know how to laugh. Be careful, you will die from laughter in a while."

Mu Mu opened the elevator angrily and opened the door to the VIP room angrily and stepped in.

Outside the elevator, Asim looked at the angry Mu Mu, and then at his master who came out of the elevator with a look of love. Sure enough, no one could beat his Duke in terms of evil.

"Damn it, Vaughn, he just knows how to bully me, let you bully me, let you bully me..."

When Vaughn walked in, he saw his white coat thrown on the ground. There were gray-black shoe prints on the clothes, red wine stains, crooked shoes... and the owner of the shoes was sitting on the sofa, holding a wine glass and taking a sip. He drank the red wine he had just sobered up.

"What a little bitch..."
