The villainous second male lead at the beginning? No! He's the white moonlight!

Meanwhile, at the Gu family home in Haicheng, Gu Ming sat in his study, with Gu Shishi standing in front of him.

"Shishi, have you seen the news?"

"I've seen it."

"Did you know that Lin Xuehuang is pursuing Ye Linyuan?"

"Know."

"So what are your thoughts?"

Gu Shishi lowered her head, fidgeting with the hem of her clothes, and timidly asked.

"Dad, what are you trying to say?"

"I'm telling you, if you don't take the initiative soon, Ye Linyuan will be snatched away by someone else."

Gu Shishi blushed instantly upon hearing Gu Ming's words.

"Dad, Yuan-gege has so many women around him, he won't miss me, and besides, we..."

"Terrible! How can it not be bad?"

Gu Shishi was interrupted by Gu Ming before she could finish speaking.

"You're the eldest daughter of the Gu family, how are you inferior to those women?"

"But......"

"No buts."

Gu Ming looked at her and said earnestly.

"Shishi, Dad isn't forcing you, but you need to think this through. A man like Ayuan is one you'll never meet again if you miss him. So you need to make it a done deal as soon as possible and finalize the engagement."

Gu Shishi remained silent for a long time before finally nodding.

"Dad, I understand."

"Good to know, go ahead."

Meanwhile, at the Liu family home, Liu Qing sat in the living room, looking at his three daughters, Liu Yanran, Liu Ruyan, and Liu Meier.

"Have you three seen the news?"

Liu Yanran, Liu Ruyan, and Liu Meier exchanged glances, nodded in unison, and said in unison.

"I've seen it."

"You saw it? You're not worried at all? Lin Xuehuang, the eldest daughter of the Lin family, is openly pursuing A-Yuan using all sorts of methods!"

Upon hearing this, and recalling the news she had seen, Liu Yanran gave an awkward smile.

"Dad, what's the rush? A-Yuan isn't the kind of person who falls in love with every girl he sees."

"You know he doesn't love you, but you can't resist when someone else makes the first move!"

Liu Qing looked at her and sighed helplessly.

His eldest daughter was good in every way, except for two flaws: one, she was too kind, directly handing over the position of family head to her younger sister Liu Ruyan; and two, she wasn't proactive enough. Didn't she know that an outstanding man like A Yuan could easily be snatched away by other women...?

"The three of you are no less beautiful than Lin Xuehuang, and your family backgrounds are just as good. Why did she get to beat you to it?"

Liu Ruyan pouted, somewhat annoyed.

"Dad, what are you saying? We're not bad at all, are we? It would be so embarrassing to take the initiative!"

"Shameful? You'll have no one to cry to when someone else snatches A-Yuan away!"

Liu Qing was instantly amused and pointed at Liu Ruyan, rolling her eyes.

"Especially you, all you do is pretend all day long. What's the point of pretending?"

"Dad, why are you criticizing me again?"

"I'm telling the truth!"

Liu Meier, standing to the side, chuckled to herself. It was rare to see Liu Ruyan get the short end of the stick, and she was genuinely happy.

"Second sister, Dad is right, you really should take the initiative."

"Shut up!"

"Alright, alright, stop arguing."

Liu Qing waved his hand.

"You all go to the capital! Go after what you need to go, grab what you need to grab! Don't embarrass me! Ah Yuan, you must be the son-in-law of the Liu family, the third son-in-law!"

"Dad, do you mean the three of us should go to the capital together to snatch her away?"

"Nonsense, let's go together. There's strength in numbers. As for this side, I'll take care of it."

Upon hearing Liu Qing's words, Liu Yanran, Liu Ruyan, and Liu Meier exchanged glances again and laughed in unison.

On the other side, at the Mo family home, Mo Yong sat on the sofa, looking at his daughter Mo Feifei, who looked rather reserved, and said with a smile.

"Feifei, Dad has something to tell you."

"What is it?"

"It's what's on your mind."

Mo Feifei blushed and became even more reserved. After a while, she spoke weakly.

"Dad, why did you suddenly bring up A-Yuan?"

"We have to mention it, because that girl from the Lin family is pursuing him, and she's pursuing him very aggressively."

Mo Yong looked at her and said earnestly.

"If you don't make a move soon, he'll belong to someone else. Although we talked to Ye Xiao before, the Thousand Sun Kingdom collapsed too quickly, which prevented the engagement from being finalized. Although our families have taken a lot of money, it's not enough to sustain the relationship."

Upon hearing this, Mo Feifei lowered her head.

"But Dad, there are so many girls around Brother Yuan, I... I might not be so sure..."

"What are you afraid of? You are my daughter, the legitimate daughter of the Mo family. Go to the capital, find Ye Linyuan, and tell him that you like him."

Mo Yong stood up, his face practically glowing, which made Mo Feifei blush bright red.

"dad!"

"Alright, stop talking about Dad. Go and get ready. We're leaving tomorrow."

"..."

Seeing that Mo Yong was clearly unwilling to participate in the competition, Mo Feifei appeared helpless but was secretly delighted and went to book her plane ticket.

In the Xiao family home, Xiao Mingjue sat in the study, while Xiao Ruoxi sat opposite him.

"My dear Ruoxi, have you been in contact with Ayuan lately?"

"We've gotten in touch. We chatted for a long time on Green Bubble yesterday."

"That's good."

Xiao Mingjue nodded, then gave a reminder.

"But just making a phone call isn't enough; you need to take the initiative."

Xiao Ruoxi was taken aback for a moment, then asked in confusion.

"Dad, what do you mean?"

"What I mean is, you take our family's private jet to the capital and find A-Yuan."

"Huh? Taking a private jet to the capital?"

"Yes, let's go now."

"Why?"

"Because that crazy girl from the Lin family in the capital has been pursuing A Yuan recently, causing quite a stir in the city. If you don't show up soon, there will be no place for you by A Yuan's side. I don't want our Xiao family to lose A Yuan as our son-in-law."

So that's how it is. However, Xiao Ruoxi said that she has one million percent confidence in Ye Linyuan!

After all, it's already...

"Dad, don't worry, Yuan won't do that."

"You're that confident?"

"have."

Xiao Mingjue looked into his daughter's eyes and knew she was serious.

"Okay, Dad believes you, but you still have to go to the capital."

Why?

"Because everyone else went, if you don't go, it will seem like you don't value it."

Xiao Ruoxi thought about it and it seemed to make sense. If everyone else went and she didn't, wouldn't that make her seem stupid? On the contrary, if everyone else didn't go and she did, wouldn't that make her seem to like Ye Linyuan even more?

Thinking of this, she nodded.

"Okay, I'll go prepare it right away."

In the Yan family study, Yan Ling was talking on the phone with Yan Ruyu.

"Ruyu, how did your talk with Ye Linyuan go?"

He said he would consider it.

Upon hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, Yan Ling suddenly stood up, a look of joy appearing on his usually composed face.

"Consider? If you're considering it, then there's a chance. You need to step up your efforts and strike while the iron is hot. Our Yan family is counting on you."

Since Yan Fan's incident, the Yan family has fallen far behind. If this continues, the Yan family will fall behind. Even now, the Yan family has become the weakest of the eight major families, and the gap between them and the top seven families is almost half!

He's been going crazy over this these past few days.

So when he heard Yan Ruyu say that she had gotten together with Ye Linyuan, how could he not be excited!

"Master, please don't force me. Don't forget, I'm not from your lineage."

"Yes, yes, you're right. I won't force you, but I still have to remind you that the Lin family girl, those families in the north, and those in the south are all getting close to Ye Linyuan. If you don't take action now, you'll miss your chance. I know what you think of Ye Linyuan. You don't want to just be envious in the future, do you?"

Yan Ruyu: ......

Hearing Yan Ling's words on the other end of the phone, Yan Ruyu almost died of anger. She hadn't even told him that Ye Linyuan had agreed, and he was already rushing her like this. If she had told him that Ye Linyuan had agreed, wouldn't he have forced her to sleep with him...?

In the Bai family home, Bai Zhan sat in the living room, with Bai Yu standing in front of him. Bai Yu's tall figure even made Bai Zhan feel inferior.

"Xiaoyu, please sit down."

Bai Yu plopped down opposite Bai Zhan, looking at him curiously.

"Dad, what's the matter that you called me back from school so urgently?"

"It's nothing much, I just want you to go to the capital and pursue Ye Linyuan. You have to win him over."

Bai Yu's face instantly turned red.

She had a rough idea of ​​what Bai Zhan meant, but the problem was that while she did like Ye Linyuan and didn't care if others knew, she couldn't do what Lin Xuehuang did and make the whole world know...

"Don't be shy. If you don't go now, you might not even get to drink the soup. Do you know how many people are pursuing him right now?"

"How many?"

"Just in the north alone there's Lin Xuehuang from the Lin family, Wu Qianqian from the Wu family, Wang Xiaoya from the Wang family, Liu Weiyu from the Liu family, and those from the south, plus the Mitsui quadruplets and Uesugi Asuka he brought from the Thousand Sunny Kingdom. Count them yourself, how many are there?"

"I like A-Yuan, not those women."

"If you don't take the initiative soon, you won't even be able to see your A-Yuan anymore, let alone those other women."

Bai Yu remained silent for a while.

"Okay, I'll go."

"That's right. I've already arranged a private jet. Just get ready and go."

Bai Zhan stood up, patted her on the shoulder, and gave her some advice with a smile.

"Remember, don't come back if you don't succeed."

Bai Yu:......

What the heck? It feels like I've been kicked out of the house?

Meanwhile, at the Su family home, Su Shiyu was on the phone with Leng Qinghan.

"Leng Qinghan, pack your things, we're going to the capital."

"Going to the capital? What for?"

"Looking for A-Yuan."

Leng Qinghan was taken aback for a moment, then asked in confusion.

"Why are you looking for your brother?"

"What do you want me to do?"

Su Shiyu sighed helplessly.

"You didn't know about Lin Xuehuang's situation?"

"I know a little bit, but what does that have to do with us going to the capital?"

"This is a big deal!"

Su Shiyu's tone became sharper.

"Ah Yuan is surrounded by more and more women, we need to protect him. You don't want to have to wait in line for a month, do you?"

On the other end of the phone, Leng Qinghan blushed slightly upon hearing Su Shiyu's words and said weakly.

"But my brother is so good, even if he uses all his skills, he might not lose."

"(⊙o⊙)..., you..., never mind, just tell me if you're going or not. If you don't go, I will. I've already handed over all my company matters to others."

"Yes, we have to go! Sister Shiyu, you're right, we have to go and protect them, otherwise, who knows where we'll end up in line..."
