Chapter 2297 Shoving away a great opportunity The day of the Summit opening ceremony: After the solemn opening ceremony ended, night fell and the banquet officially started. The Arbitration Council was considered at the peak of the Twelve Independent State’s power pyramid. All the higher-ups and members of the Arbitration Council were powerful leaders of their respective states, and furthermore, the current president was the great martial arts master, Yi Lingjun. It could be said that this current Arbitration Council organization was the strongest in history. Hence, it was apparent what an extravaganza this year’s summit banquet would be. Of course, what particularly excited all the directors and members wasn’t the new president. It was the return of the daughter of the vice president, Qin Zong—the most beautiful woman in Tianshui City—Qin Xiyuan. Moreover, the Qin family had released news that they were choosing a husband for their eldest miss. The Qin residence’s main door was nearly destroyed from the trampling hoard. Aside from power, what people pursued zealously was none other than beautiful women. What made this even better was that this was a powerful and influential beautiful woman. Everyone knew what marrying Qin Xiyuan represented. “Why isn’t Eldest Miss Qin here yet? Will she come today?” “Of course she’ll come on an occasion like today. Even if she didn’t come as Vice President Qin’s family member, she herself is a high-ranked legal consultant for the Arbitration Council.” “Eh, it’s unrelated to you whether Eldest Miss comes or not anyway since Eldest Miss’s heart belongs to someone else already!” The person next to them furtively glanced at Si Yehan in the distance and lowered their voice as they said, “Are you talking about the gossip article published about Eldest Miss and Director Si a few days ago?” “Exactly! Don’t forget what the Qin family controls. If it weren’t for the Qin family’s tacit approval, why would they have permitted such an article to be published? I also heard it was Eldest Miss on the pursuing side!” “Eh? Then doesn’t that mean we don’t have a chance?” “It’s strange though. Why did Director Si come here by himself today? If things were really as the article said, Eldest Miss would definitely be attending with him today, right?” “You know women. They have to change their clothes and do their makeup! She’ll probably arrive soon!” … Nearby, Qin Zong had a wine glass in hand as he conversed with Yin Yuerong. Qin Zong’s face was icy and rather displeased when he saw Yin Yuerong. “Heh, Director Yin, your son is truly haughty and arrogant. I wonder what respectable family you’re discussing marriage with that caused him to look down on even my daughter, Qin Zong.” Yin Yuerong replied, “Vice President Qin, what you’re saying is too heavy. There’s isn’t any respectable family; she’s merely some wild girl. Miss Qin is as graceful as a phoenix, but my son merely has bad taste.” Qin Zong snorted. “Hmph! Thank goodness there’s at least one clever person in your family!” Yin Yuerong furrowed her brows and glanced at her nearby son. When she saw his composed appearance, fury raged inside of her. For a woman, he was shoving away such a great opportunity! Everyone was occupied by their own thoughts and discussion ran rampant. At this moment, a silvery-white luxurious car suddenly stopped at the entrance. Someone sharply recognized it as Eldest Miss Qin’s car. As everyone waited in anticipation for a beautiful woman to exit the car. To their surprise, the first to come out wasn’t Qin Xiyuan. Instead, it was… a man. The man first stepped out of the car before courteously pulling open the back door. “Eh? Isn’t that… Yin Heng?” “That’s right! Why did he come out of Eldest Miss Qin’s car?” Soon, the breathtakingly dressed Qin Xiyuan stepped out of the car with the support of Yin Heng. She naturally looped her arms around Yin Heng’s arm, affectionate in her mannerisms.
