Old Master Yang walked over happily and smiled so widely that one could not see his eyes. “Lass Nian, you’re finally here. When I called you, I was afraid that you wouldn’t like the bustle and would reject me…”

When everyone heard this, they were so shocked that their eyeballs almost fell out!

Old Master Yang was a senior figure in Jiang City. Not only was he the founder of the Gan Kun Hall, but he was also the founder and president of the country’s Antiques Association!

In the entire Jiang City, there were so many people trying to get close to him. However, no matter who it was, Yang Kun would reject them!

Everyone present was even more desperate to attend today’s banquet! They had thought that they could establish a relationship with Yang Kun, but they did not expect that a young lady would beat them to it!

Most importantly, that little girl had an indifferent expression. She neither fawned over him nor was she overly arrogant!

This made everyone even more curious. Which family was this young lady from? Why had they never seen her before?

At a corner, Nian Chaoyu’s face darkened when he saw Nian Yue. “Don’t you find it embarrassing enough at home?! You actually came to the gala again!”

“Dad, don’t be angry. Maybe it must be because Nian Yue was neglected too much when she was young. That’s why she doesn’t fit in at such an important event,” Nian Yan explained in a timely manner.

After hearing her explanation, Nian Chaoyu’s expression became much better. However, his gaze towards Nian Yue was still dark and he wished he could stare a hole through her back!

How could Nian Yue not feel that family’s murderous gaze? But the corners of her lips curled up slightly from the start to the end. She did not take the words of the other three to heart at all.

Nian Chaoyu finally couldn’t stand it anymore. He walked over in large strides and forcefully suppressed his anger. “Old Master Yang, I’m sorry. My daughter came over wearing a school uniform today. I’ve embarrassed myself in front of you.”

“Who are you?” Old Master Yang looked at him from head to toe and mocked him.

Nian Chaoyu originally wanted to use Nian Yue’s relationship with Yang Kun to make his presence known. He never expected that he would be given a slap in the face by Yang Kun so rudely!

In an instant, Nian Chaoyu’s face turned black, then red, then white. It was a myriad of colors.

“Hello, Old Master Yang. I am Nian Yan. I am Nian Yue’s elder sister and this is my father.” Nian Yan walked over slowly and explained to Old Master Yang with a smile, looking like a well-bred young lady.

When she saw Old Master Yang smiling so widely at Nian Yue, she was furious! She was just an uneducated wild girl from the countryside!

“I don’t know you.” Old Master Yang could not be bothered with pleasantries.

Nian Yan’s expression was shattered for a moment. When she thought of the purpose of her visit today, she suppressed her emotions and explained, “Old Master Yang, you might have heard things from Yue Yue and misunderstood me and my father…”

This unhurried sentence made everyone’s imagination run wild.

Although Old Master Yang was arrogant, he was not the type to make things difficult for others.

But he had mocked Nian Chaoyu when the latter went over to greet him.

Could it be that this young lady in school uniform had really bad-mouthed the Nian family in front of Old Master Yang?

“Oh?” Old Master Yang was interested. “Why don’t you tell me what misunderstanding I have about you?”

As soon as she heard that Old Master Yang was willing to listen to her, Nian Yan’s eyes lit up. She felt that this was her chance and she had to perform well. “Yue Yue grew up in the countryside and did not receive any good education. So, what happened at the Li family’s banquet the other day hurt my heart too…”

When she said this, everyone suddenly understood. “Could she be referring to the Second Mistress of the Nian Family who had stalked someone to the Li Family banquet?”

“I heard that she has been a good-for-nothing since she was young. She grew up in the countryside and had dismal results.The Nian Family had to spend money to get her into No.1 Middle School…”

“No wonder she came here in her school uniform today. One look and you can tell she’s ill-mannered…”

…

The people discussing at the side were all young girls in their teens. Women had a sense of crisis towards their own kind who were prettier than them.

Especially when the girl in front of them was wearing a simple school uniform but could kill easily with her looks in an instant.

“She came here in her school uniform today to attract everyone’s attention. I’m sorry, I brought Yue Yue to apologize to you. I’ve brought trouble to you.” Nian Yan’s tone was as sincere as it could be. She had portrayed the role of a saintly sister to the extreme.

“Who do you think you are?” Old Master Yang laughed.

Nian Yan had thought that Old Master Yang would treat her differently no matter what she said. She did not expect him to say this.

In an instant, her face turned red.

“Old Master Yang, did you misunderstand me? I really want to apologize on behalf of Yue Yue…”

“Firstly, I really like Lass Nian. Today’s banquet is for her. Even if she comes over in her pajamas, I will still be happy. Secondly, if you were really worried about Lass Nian, you wouldn’t have come with your father. Your family of three have arrived early, leaving my men to pick her up.” Old Master Yang scoffed coldly. Although he was still a child at such an old age, he wasn’t a fool.

He couldn’t even be bothered to look at Nian Yan.

“Lass Nian, how is my eloquence?” Old Master Yang only asked Nian Yue when Nian Yan’s face turned pale and looked as though she was about to cry the next second.

“Good.” Nian Yue smiled and a rare warmth appeared in her eyes. Old Master Yang was the first person to speak up for her in this world.

The onlookers at the side had long been shocked by the way the two of them interacted. Legend had it that Old Master Yang was unreasonable and few people could catch his eye. However, looking at the way he interacted with Nian Yue, it was not like the rumors said.

“In that case, how about becoming my disciple today?” Old Master Yang suddenly smiled. “My Gan Kun Hall hasn’t accepted a disciple for many years…”

What? Gan Kun Hall was going to take in a disciple?!

When everyone heard this, they were so shocked that they almost lost their balance!

Everyone knew that Old Master Yang was the one who founded Gan Kun Hall. During the toughest times of the last century, he had never thought of giving it away!

But now, he actually said that he wanted to take Nian Yue as his disciple!

If she became Old Master Yang’s disciple, not only would she become the successor of the Gan Kun Hall, she would also become the president of the nation’s Antiques Association!

Many rich and powerful people would not be able to buy this position even if they wanted to!

Unexpectedly, Old Master Yang had casually said that he would take Nian Yue as his disciple today!

“That’s not necessary.” Nian Yue smiled. “I’m not interested.”

She had no interest in antique research. Perhaps it was because she had been in the post-apocalyptic world for too long. To her, she would rather study the structure of food than look at those cold antiques.

The crowd erupted again!

Nian Yue, that idiotic Second Mistress from the Nian Family had actually rejected Old Yang’s offer to take her in as a disciple!

“Old Master Yang, Nian Yue grew up in the countryside and doesn’t know any rules. Please don’t lower yourself to her level.” Nian Chaoyu suppressed the anger in his heart and gave Nian Yue a look.

Getting close to Yang Kun was his main purpose for coming here today.

He definitely could not let Nian Yue mess it up!
