Tyrannical Tycoon Haunts Me Relentlessly-Chapter 532: Only She in His Eyes 2

The banquet soon reached its most fervent phase.

This time, it was the Old Master himself, together with the Old Madam, who took to the central stage.

"Could it be, the Old Master and Grandma’s wedding anniversary?"

By now, Xia Yinian still referred to the Old Master as such, but she had started calling the Old Madam ’Grandma.’

The Old Madam had insisted that she call her this way last time, so the name stuck.

"It’s not their anniversary; that has already passed this year." Gu Lingqian shook his head, equally puzzled about the true purpose of tonight’s banquet.

However, since Grandpa had already gone up, the revelation would come soon.

"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you all for joining us at the Gu Family tonight to attend our banquet."

As soon as the Old Master spoke, the crowd below instantly fell silent.

The status of Old Master Gu in the business community speaks for itself.

The Old Master continued: "I believe everyone is still in the dark about why the Gu Family has invited you here tonight."

Seeing the Old Master exchange a glance with the Old Madam and share a smile, their affection was something many envied.

However, tonight’s banquet was so grand and so mysterious, it had to be a significant event!

The Old Madam smiled and nodded, then the Old Master looked down with a smile in the corner of his eyes and brows.

"I hereby announce that from this moment on, my eldest grandson, Gu Lingqian, and the younger Miss Xia from the Xia Family, Xia Yinian, are officially engaged!"

"What?"

"Engaged?"

"So it turns out to be Young Master Zhangsun of Gu Family and Lady Xia’s engagement party!"

"Is it the Miss Niannian from the video today?"

"It must be!"

Although the Old Master’s presence was truly daunting, the crowd could not help but burst into discussion, it was just too shocking!

Nobody expected tonight’s banquet to be an engagement party! There hadn’t been a single word mentioned before!

Down below, Xia Yinian’s fingertips trembled, and the cup in her hand slid down.

It was someone passing by her at just the right moment who casually caught her cup and placed it on the table.

Xia Yinian seemed to have lost all her own thoughts, looking over without meaning to, she saw that person down the drink in the cup in one gulp.

Afterwards, he carelessly tossed the cup on a table and his tall figure moved through the crowd, heading outside.

"Young Master Ling is getting engaged, why is Seventh Young Master leaving? Could it be that the latest post on Weibo is true?"

"What Weibo post?"

Those people were extra cautious, fearing their words might be overheard by those with ulterior motives, so they kept their voices low.

"It’s that Weibo post, look..."

"Xia Yinian slept with her nephew and seduced her Uncle..." toward the end, the voice became very faint.

"No way? Is it true?"

"It’s true!"

The murmurs from below couldn’t be heard by those on stage, and they had no desire to listen either.

In her confusion, Xia Yinian, with no sense of her own, was already being led by Gu Lingqian onto the central stage.

The Old Madam brought out a box, smiling at her: "Niannian, this is the engagement ring from when I was young and got engaged to the old man, and now, I pass it on to you."

Xia Yinian had no reaction, only looking towards the direction of the banquet hall’s exit, watching that figure gradually fade into the night.

She didn’t know why this was happening; she hadn’t expected this.

She didn’t even have the slightest mental preparation.

Wasn’t there still some time? Wasn’t it not supposed to happen so soon?

Why... suddenly become engaged?
