Ling Siye glanced at him indifferently, "Who are you?"

As he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.

Soon, everyone burst into laughter.

The most outrageous and blatant was Qian Rui, "Hahaha! I thought you, Qiao Ziyue, were someone close to Young Master Ling, but it turns out he doesn't even know you! And you're still pretending! You've got some nerve!"

Qiao Ziyue ignored Qian Rui's cold words and looked at Ling Siyue with a hurt expression. "Brother Siyue, you're lying to me, aren't you... How could you not remember me? I'm Ziyue! Even if you don't remember me, do you remember Sister Yuxuan?"

"I don't know you, and I don't remember your sister Yuxuan." Ling Siye said coldly, not even giving her a second glance, and then directly stretched out his palm to Jiang Huan, "Huanhuan, come here."

Jiang Huan: "..." Could she not come? She wanted to keep a low profile.

"Come, come, come." Qian Rui took it upon herself to place Jiang Huan's hand in Ling Siye's palm. "Young Master Ling, I'm entrusting Huanhuan to you!"

"Mm." Ling Siye smiled again, looking at Jiang Huan with tenderness, and squeezed her hand tightly. "Come on, let's go on stage together."

Jiang Huan was speechless again: "..." She could have said no!

However, this guy is really strong, and she couldn't break free at all.

At this point, there's not much point in trying to break free.

Remembering the terms of the contract, which required him to attend these banquets and such, he had no choice but to go!

"Brother Siye..." Qiao Ziyue's eyes were filled with tears, and she looked completely disheveled.

Seeing this, Qian Rui clicked her tongue in disgust, "Miss Qiao, if I were you, I would definitely go change into a clean set of clothes right now!"

"You... Hmph, I won't argue with you." Qiao Ziyue fiercely wiped away her tears. "Just you wait, Sister Yuxuan will be back soon. You and that Jiang Huan won't be smug for long. Brother Siye belongs to Sister Yuxuan!"

"You really are that Yu Xuan's lackey, always talking about Yu Xuan. You might as well be with Yu Xuan!" Qian Rui retorted without changing her expression.

Qiao Ziyue gritted her teeth, lifted her skirt, turned around, and quickly left.

Soon, a waiter came to clean up the farce, and Qian Rui simply went to Qian Menglan's side and got to know the other bosses.

The time had come, and the charity gala began.

Ling Siye led Jiang Huan onto the stage, and the lights and cameras focused on the two of them.

Jiang Huan wore a white backless fitted long dress, showing off her curvaceous figure, while Ling Siye wore a black suit. The two, one white and one black, were a perfect match.

Soon, a reporter asked, "Young Master Ling, are you really dating the fifth young lady of the Jiang family?"

"Hmm." Ling Siye nodded, his smile indifferent.

"But... Miss Jiang Wu is a girl with the mental capacity of a three-year-old. Does she even know what dating is? Aren't you taking advantage of her vulnerability? Isn't that a bit immoral?"

Everyone was shocked: This reporter really dares to ask questions!

Jiang Huan pursed her lips, a half-smile playing on her lips, her gaze intentionally or unintentionally falling on Ling Siye's face: You stubborn mush, I made you choose me, and now look what happened, you're being called immoral!

“Only by becoming someone close to her can I better protect her.” Ling Siye turned to look at Jiang Huan, meeting her gaze with deep affection. “I can wait, until the day she recovers.”

Although Jiang Huan remained outwardly calm, her heart was in turmoil, and she couldn't calm it down no matter what she did.

This guy is unremarkable when he doesn't speak, but once he does, he's incredibly charming!

"What if Miss Jiang never recovers in this lifetime? Will you stay by her side in this capacity forever?" The reporter's eyes were filled with fervor, just like a loyal fan.

Everyone present held their breath, waiting for Ling Siye's answer.

"Correct!"

With just one simple word, he directly expressed his disdain for the immense waves of emotion. Nothing else mattered; his attitude spoke volumes.

at the same time.

Yue Wuyang sat on the chandelier above the hall, looking at Ling Siye with an indifferent expression.

Putting everything else aside, not a single word Ling Siye said was false; she could guarantee that.

But why does this kid have a familiar feeling about him?

Thinking of this, she simply jumped off the chandelier and flew directly to Ling Siye's side.

Jiang Huan happened to witness this scene. Her lips twitched, but she couldn't speak or look around. She could only watch helplessly as her master circled around her and Ling Siye, but he was mostly observing and pondering Ling Siye.

God!

What exactly is Master doing?

Could it be that she has taken a liking to Ling Siye?

Just as Jiang Huan was puzzled, Ling Siye took her hand and led her to the side.

As he passed the host, Ling Siye nodded to the host who was standing to the side.

The host, understanding the message, picked up the microphone and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, the main purpose of tonight's charity gala is to raise funds through the auction of items. Our chamber of commerce will donate the proceeds to those in need. The chamber of commerce promises not to profit from the auction, so please rest assured. Now, please move to the side hall and take your seats."

Ling Siye led Jiang Huan to her seat first, and they sat in the front row.

There is no set order for seating in this side hall. You can sit wherever you want after you come in, but if you can't find a seat, you can go to another seat voluntarily. No arguing about seating is allowed.

The side hall of the Ruifeng Hotel is about the same size as the front hall, and it can easily accommodate the distinguished guests who came to attend the charity gala.

To ensure that distinguished guests seated at the back can see what's in front, there are auctioneers and auction items on projection screens on both sides of the side hall.

“If you see something you like, just tell me and I’ll take a picture of it,” Ling Siye said abruptly.

This made everyone around who heard it extremely envious.

Previously, this guy had spent a fortune to buy several items at the An family auction and then gifted them to Jiang Huan.

They simply couldn't understand how the foolish heiress who was abandoned by Lu Yuanrui could end up being so sought after!

Jiang Huan nodded and did not refuse.

Someone was a real sucker and gave her something; how could she refuse it?

Don't be in vain!

At that moment, she felt a resentful and regretful gaze fixed on her.

She tilted her head slightly and glanced at him sideways.

Lu Yuanrui? He actually came too!

However, all of that is in the past. Now, without the help of the Jiang family and with Li Huaichuan's attacks, the Lu family is no longer a force to be reckoned with, and bankruptcy is probably just around the corner.

The Lu family will never rise again, and Lu Yuanrui will be nothing but a good-for-nothing. This can be considered as avenging the original owner for Lu Yuanrui's betrayal!

Having considered this, she withdrew her gaze.

The items auctioned at this charity gala were all brought in by the guests themselves. Some were used items, some were their own paintings, and some were other things. In short, if an item failed to sell, it would return to its original owner.

To protect privacy, the owner of an item will not be revealed until it has been sold.

After everyone was seated, the charity auction began.

"The first item is a very old ring, said to have been passed down from ancestors. It was only because the ring looks so strange that it was decided to auction it off to find another owner."
