Duan Jinghan stared incredulously at the radiant woman on the big screen.

Isn't that Jiang Youli?

Why is she here? !

Wait, she just said that tonight's welcome dinner was for her?!

Because he didn't receive any news about Jiang Youli in the afternoon, Duan Jinghan had no interest in attending the welcome banquet tonight.

In other words, Jiang Youli is the newly brought-back young lady of the Jiang family?

Duan Jinghan no longer knew how to describe his feelings at that moment.

He felt increasingly regretful, wondering why he had broken up with her!

If he hadn't broken up with her out of spite back then, Jiang Youli and he would be a perfect match now!

There is absolutely no issue of identity mismatch.

"Is this your daughter speaking? She's so poised and elegant." Duan Jinghan's thoughts returned when he heard his father's words.

Duan Jinghan had known Jiang Youli for two years and knew how charming she was.

Besides being a female doctor from a farming family.

But now, she is the daughter of the Jiang family!

In other words, he can rightfully marry her!

"Dad, I want to marry her!" Duan Jinghan said, pointing at Jiang Youli.

These words stopped Jiang Yehan and Zhang Susu, who were having a polite conversation with Duan Pinchao, and they looked at Duan Jinghan in shock.

After realizing what was happening, Zhang Susu was clearly annoyed, adopting a protective stance: "Mr. Duan, who is this?"

Duan Pinchao was a little embarrassed. "Like your daughter, he is also my son whom I just brought back not long ago. Unlike your daughter, he doesn't quite understand the rules yet."

At this point, he scolded in a low voice, "Duan Jinghan, I asked you to come with me to this welcome banquet so that you could make more connections with the young masters and ladies in the circle. What nonsense are you spouting here!"

Duan Jinghan, however, showed no remorse whatsoever. "Dad, you said you would make it up to me. As long as it wasn't excessive, you would agree to anything I asked for. What I want to ask for now is that I want to marry Jiang Youli!"

Zhang Susu's face turned completely cold, and her usually gentle voice inevitably became tinged with anger, "Let alone the fact that You Li is already married, even if she isn't, it's not up to you to decide on her marriage!"

Duan Jinghan frowned. "What? Jiang Youli is already married?"

Jiang Yehan's face also darkened. "Mr. Duan really should discipline your son properly. Youli is our precious daughter, and we cannot allow her to be treated so disrespectfully!"

Duan Pinchao repeatedly apologized.

Zhang Susu, too lazy to maintain appearances, simply turned and walked away.

"I won't be entertaining Mr. Duan and your good son tonight!" Jiang Yehan said, then followed his wife.

Duan Pinchao looked at his son, whom he had just brought home, speechless. "What are you doing!"

Duan Jinghan stared intently at Jiang Youli and said, "She's my girlfriend! Isn't it only natural that I want to marry her?"

Duan Pinchao said sternly, "Regardless of whether she was your girlfriend before, she is now a young lady of the Jiang family! You were extremely rude just now!"

Duan Jinghan said, "I don't care, Dad. They just said Jiang Youli is married. What's going on?"

Duan Pinchao raised his chin and said, "Do you see that man in the wheelchair over there?"

Duan Jinghan followed his father's directions and saw the man sitting in the wheelchair. He was so handsome that many women present were looking at him.

Unfortunately, he was disabled.

"He is Qi Huan, the eldest son of the Qi family. He was once a famous and promising young man in Beijing. Many young ladies wanted to marry him. In the end, the old master of the Qi family chose to marry Jiang Yonghe, the daughter of the Jiang family. However, after Qi Huan became disabled, it is said that the Jiang family was not willing to let Jiang Yonghe marry him. So, it is highly likely that the newly brought-back young lady will marry in his place."

Duan Jinghan frowned. So, the man who called Jiang Youli this afternoon claiming to be her fiancé was this Qi Huan?

No matter how influential he was before, he's just a useless cripple now. What makes him think he can compete with us in the future?

……

Jiang Youli saw her beautiful new mother and handsome new father walking back with grim faces and in a huff, and asked curiously, "Dad, Mom, what's wrong?"

Zhang Susu said angrily, "I've run into a rude brat!"

Jiang Youli then looked towards the entrance, and upon seeing Duan Jinghan appear in the venue, she instantly understood.

"Youli, do you know that kid?" Zhang Susu asked.

Jiang Youli didn't hide anything, "Yes, he was my ex-boyfriend. After he found out that he was a rich young master, he looked down on my status and broke up with me."

"So that's how it is!" Zhang Susu's disgust for Duan Jinghan deepened. "He just said he wanted to marry you. How outrageous! What does he take you for!"

Jiang Yehan hugged her and coaxed her gently, "Alright, don't be angry. Don't bother with this kind of person. Let's just ignore him."

Zhang Susu gradually calmed down. "Yes, Youli, let's ignore him."

"Mm." Jiang Youli nodded. As long as Duan Jinghan didn't bother her, she naturally wouldn't bother with him.

……

Grandpa Qi looked at his grandson Qi Huan beside him and said, "Alright, you look so distracted. You don't need to stay by my side. Why don't you hurry up and cultivate your relationship with your beloved fiancée?"

Qi Huan smiled slightly, "Okay."

As he spoke, he pushed his wheelchair toward Jiang Youli, who was not far away.

At this moment, Qi Yue, who had been silent all along, also spoke up: "Grandpa, then I'll also..."

Before he could finish speaking, Old Master Qi's expression turned cold, and he said directly, "Yes, go ahead and broaden your horizons."

Qi Yue's smile stiffened slightly, but he showed no displeasure and still said respectfully, "Thank you, Grandpa."

After saying that, he glanced at his father, Qi Tianxiang, and the moment he turned away, the smile on his face vanished. He was already full of anger, and to make matters worse, people around him started whispering.

"It seems that even though Qi Huan is crippled, he is still more favored by the old master of the Qi family."

"Yes, the old man of the Qi family's attitude towards his two grandsons is too obvious. Qi Yue looked rather pitiful just now, trying to win their favor only to be met with indifference."

Qi Yue's eyes turned cold: He's pitiful?

No, the only one who will suffer is Qi Huan!

……

"Is that your younger brother Qi Yue standing next to you?" Jiang Youli asked, glancing casually at the young man who was chatting and laughing among the guests as she pushed her wheelchair.

Qi Huan nodded, "Mm."

Jiang Youli withdrew her gaze, smiled thoughtfully, and said, "You brothers don't look very alike."

Qi Huan joked, "I'm much better looking than him?"

Jiang Youli chuckled, "I'm serious, but you're just joking with me."

Upon hearing this, Qi Huan turned her gaze to Qi Yue, who was walking among the crowd, and said in a more serious tone, "It's true that quite a few people say that I don't look much like him."

"Didn't you ever suspect anything?" Jiang Youli raised an eyebrow to remind him.
