The music is ringing.

The lights shone down.

Gu Yan held Lin Jinyu's hand with her left hand and Pei Yuran's hand with her right hand.

The three of them slowly began to dance.

Lin Jinyu danced very well.

Her dance moves were elegant and fluid.

As expected of the eldest daughter of the Lin family.

Pei Yuran also danced very well.

Although she is usually aloof, she is exceptionally graceful when she dances.

The two of them spun around Gu Yan, one on the left and one on the right.

Gu Yan was caught in the middle.

On the left are golden eyes.

On the right are ice-blue eyes.

On the dance floor.

The music continued.

But nobody danced anymore.

Everyone stood still, looking in the same direction.

Looking at the boy who had just finished a trio dance.

He watched as he released the hands of the two young ladies.

I watched as he plopped down on the sofa.

He watched as the two young ladies sat on either side of him.

The entire place was eerily quiet.

Only the music is still playing.

But no one moved.

No one spoke.

Just watch.

Looking at the three people on the sofa.

Bai Zikong stood at the edge of the crowd.

He was still holding that glass of wine in his hand.

I didn't drink a drop.

He even forgot to look for a dance partner.

I just stood there and watched the whole dance.

The dance is over now.

He was still standing.

His friend next to him leaned over.

"Zikong, are you alright?"

Bai Zikong remained silent.

His friend followed his gaze.

Looking at the three people on the sofa.

"Who exactly is that man?"

Bai Zikong remained silent.

My friend couldn't hold back any longer.

"Zikong, say something!"

"I know you know him."

"Just tell me, who exactly is he?"

"I really can't hold back anymore."

"Even the top young master from that family couldn't do this, right?"

Pei Yuran, Lin Jinyu.

"Two S-class cars."

"One is as cold as ice, the other is as explosive as fire."

"We usually ignore each other."

"Now you're actually dancing with him?"

"And they were sitting on either side of him?"

"What the hell is going on?"

Bai Zikong finally spoke.

The sound was very soft.

"I can't say."

My friend got anxious.

"Why can't I say it?"

"I promise I won't tell anyone!"

Bai Zikong looked at him.

"If I told you, you'd be scared."

My friend was stunned.

"Scared?"

"How scary can it be?"

Bai Zikong did not answer.

He just stared at Gu Yan on the sofa.

I remembered what my teacher had said.

That was a long time ago.

When he first became an apprentice.

The teacher is a retired master who once taught at Zhenguo Academy.

One day, the teacher drank too much.

She pulled him aside and said it.

"Zikong, do you know Gu Yan, the Imperial Jade?"

He nodded.

"Know."

The teacher smiled.

"You know nothing."

"You think he's just good-looking?"

"You think he's only good at painting and playing the piano?"

"I'll tell you."

"He cured three S-class patients."

He was stunned.

"Three S-class?"

The teacher nodded.

"right."

"Three."

Do you know what S-rank means?

"It means standing at the top of the human pyramid."

"Every S-rank is a treasure of the empire."

"The Empire goes crazy with anxiety every time an S-class character has a problem."

"But Gu Yan."

He cured three people.

He didn't believe it at the time.

I think the teacher was drunk and bragging.

But now.

He looked at the three people on the sofa.

Looking at Pei Yuran.

Looking at Lin Jinyu.

He suddenly remembered what his teacher had said.

Pei Yuran, S-level.

Lin Jinyu, S-level.

Both are top-notch.

Both of them sat next to Gu Yan.

Both of them were looking at him with that kind of gaze.

He suddenly understood something.

Could it be...?

Of the three S-levels the teacher mentioned.

Are there two of them?

He recalled another rumor.

The eldest daughter of the Chen family, Cecilia.

I heard she's been sick again recently.

He was very ill.

Chen Sinian searched everywhere for people.

But Gu Yan could not be found.

Now, the eldest daughter of the Chen family can only rely on Aunt Tian for care.

Aunt Tian is a Grandmaster-level expert.

They could only barely get close by relying on Miss Chen's subconscious familiar scent.

Bai Zikong took a deep breath.

He knows too much.

There was so much that it frightened him.

His friend saw him staring blankly and nudged him again.

"Zikong, what are you thinking about?"

Bai Zikong came to his senses.

Shake his head.

"It's nothing."

My friend sighed.

"Fine, if you don't want to tell me, then forget it."

"But I'm really curious."

"The man just sat there, and the two young ladies kept him company."

"This scene is outrageous."

Bai Zikong remained silent.

He just stared at Gu Yan on the sofa.

He said it silently in his heart.

Grandmaster.

How did you manage to do that?

……

on the sofa.

Gu Yan was holding a fruit platter.

I forked a piece of watermelon and put it in my mouth.

Chew slowly.

Look straight ahead.

But I didn't absorb anything.

All he wants to do now is leave.

Hurry up and leave.

Get out of this awful place.

But he can't leave.

Because he felt someone grabbing his sleeve.

They held on very tightly.

He glanced down at it.

It was Lin Jinyu's hand.

That hand was gripping his sleeve tightly.

My fingers turned white from clenching them so tightly.

He looked up at Lin Jinyu.

Lin Jinyu was also looking at him.

Those golden eyes were bright.

With a hint of smugness.

It seems to be saying...

Gotcha! Let's see how you run now.

Gu Yan was helpless.

He looked to the other side.

Pei Yuran didn't grab his sleeve.

But I sat very close to him.

They were so close that there was almost no distance between them.

Those icy blue eyes were also looking at him.

calm.

But what lies hidden beneath the calm?

Gu Yan knew.

That's possessiveness.

He took a deep breath.

He picked up another piece of watermelon with his fork.

Keep eating.

Now we can only play dumb.

Store it for as long as it lasts.

……

People around were talking about it.

The sound was faint, but it came through intermittently.

"Who exactly is that man?"

"I don't know, but it's definitely not simple."

"Could someone who can afford to have two young ladies accompany him be an ordinary person?"

"I suspect he might be the heir of some reclusive family."

"Hidden families? Didn't those families decline long ago?"

"Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse, don't you understand?"

"That's impossible, isn't it?"

"What kind of personality does Pei Yuran have? Keep strangers away."

"What is Lin Jinyu's personality like? Keep strangers away."

"How charming must a man be for two people to be able to spend time with him at the same time?"

"I think it's not just charm, there must be a powerful background."

"What kind of background would make two top-tier S-class universities both interested in you?"

"I don't know, I can't guess."

Suddenly someone whispered.

"You say..."

"Could it be Gu Yan?"

The entire room fell silent for a second.

Then someone laughed.

"Gu Yan?"

"How is that possible?"

"The Imperial Jade knows gambling?"

"Can they still beat the gambling king?"

"How did you get here?"

"And look at that man, he's wearing a mask."

"Does anyone know if it's Gu Yan?"

"If it were Gu Yan, would Pei Yuran have brought him along?"

"The Lin family has been searching for him all over the world, yet the Pei family dares to bring him here?"

"Isn't that just courting death?"

"That's right, no matter how powerful the Pei family is, they can't go head-to-head with the Lin family, can they?"

"And there's the Chen family, and the Third Hospital as well."

"If Gu Yan were here, she would have been snatched away long ago."

"Yes, yes, that's impossible."

"I'm probably overthinking it."

The man nodded.

"Too."

"How could Gu Yan be here?"

"Absolutely impossible."
