Chapter 872: Chapter 872
Shangguan Yunli, who was dismissing a waiter, heard Ye Xian's name and turned around incredulously to look at the flustered little woman on stage trying to escape. This, this, this stunning beauty, is actually Ye Xian?!
How could that be? Isn't Ye Xian male...
But Tingshen wouldn't mistake someone for her, and only Ye Xian could make him so out of control. Besides, if she wasn't Ye Xian, why would she be so guilty and run away? And that unmistakably cowardly look, so much like how Ye Xian looks every time she's afraid of being reprimanded by Tingshen after doing something wrong!
On the dazzling stage, the little woman lifted her skirt and ran. All the guests in the Banquet Hall were stunned. Ye Shaowen, Ye Juncheng, and Lu Cen all turned their heads, and the Ye's, Lu's couple and Old Master Lu were shocked to look over as well.
"Xianxian! Where are you going?"
A fallen light-colored high-heeled shoe adorned with diamonds slowly rolled off the stage, along the steps, and stopped right at the man's feet.
Bo Tingshen bent down to pick it up, his eyes icy, gripping the shoe tightly as he prepared to give chase, only for Lu Cen to turn around and reach for the shoe in his hand, only to be harshly repelled by the man's elbow.
This unexpected jolt made Lu Cen take two steps back, his eyes filled with surprise.
Such a quick move, such strong force!
He didn't expect the gentlemanly man in front of him, exuding an air of elegant business elite, to actually know martial arts, and this move made it impossible to gauge his strength.
Today was the Lu Family's banquet, also Ye Xian's first public appearance. He had come uninvited, interrupted the banquet, and even publicly questioned who Ye Xian was to him.
Although this question sounded inexplicable to others, he sensitively detected a hint of ambiguity, moreover, Ye Xian ran away upon seeing him. She was always a generous and graceful girl, unlikely to abandon her parents and elders at such a venue. Just who was he…
The natural animosity towards a competitor emanated from the man's eyes, and Lu Cen once again made a move. This time, an uppercut directly aimed at the man's thumb holding the high heel, his left leg lifted, fiercely kicking towards his knee, but as if foreseeing his movements, the man effortlessly avoided it, slashing his palm towards his raised left leg.

They say the arm doesn't twist the thigh, but this downward chop made Lu Cen feel as if his thigh was stabbed by a knife, the pain numbing even the bone trembling.
He underestimated him!
Lu Cen's gaze tightened, ready to strike again, but the man anticipated him, a swift chop landing on his humerus.
Ye Shaowen turned his head just in time to see him strike at Lu Cen.
This guy, simply defiant, insanely arrogant! Breaking into the banquet, forcing Xiao Yezi away, and now he's even fighting the host!
Ye Shaowen made a move on him, only for his wrist to be caught, "?"
He tried to shake free but couldn't, simultaneously puzzled and angry, "Let go of me!"
On the stairs, Shangguan Yunli, seeing the three already fighting, hurriedly parted the crowd and walked over, "Hey hey hey hey~ a misunderstanding! A big misunderstanding!"
Though many at the banquet didn't recognize Bo Tingshen, they all knew Shangguan Yunli, the son of the real estate tycoon in the Capital City, one of the top elite heirs in the country, frequently attending various upper-class gatherings. Also famed as a Movie King in the entertainment circle, releasing a film annually, renowned and well-known.
Old Master Lu turned his face to see Shangguan Yunli, his eyes inadvertently flashed with surprise, "When did Young Master Shangguan grace us with your presence? Why didn't you inform this old man?"
"Old Master Lu, you're too kind. I also just found out today is the Lu Family banquet, I've long admired your style, and came specifically to congratulate you on your moving-in celebration. The time was tight so I didn't have a chance to meet you."
Shangguan Yunli said, risking his life, laying a hand on Bo Tingshen's shoulder, "Forgot to introduce this gentleman, Chairman and CEO of Bo Group — Bo Tingshen."
The moment the words fell, everyone was shocked, all four members of the Lu Family stared speechless at the man before them.
He's the Crown Prince of the foremost noble Bo Consortium in the Imperial Capital, the youngest CEO of BHS Group, who last June already ranked top three on Forbes' list of personal fortunes, Bo Tingshen?
No wonder his aura and presence are so strong.
After introducing, Shangguan Yunli whispered in Bo Tingshen's ear, "This is the Lu family's domain, causing a scene isn't appropriate, besides, things aren't clear yet, what if Ye Xian truly is the Ye family's youngest daughter, these people more or less might have some relation to her."
Xia Hewan, watching her daughter's silhouette disappear from view, then looked at Bo Tingshen's sullen face, momentarily flustered, not knowing what to do.
Oh no, they managed to persuade Xianxian with great effort to attend this family banquet; their only fear was her identity being discovered, now it's not only exposed but directly in front of the boss, Xianxian caring so much about her job is definitely infuriated.
Xia Hewan's face filled with panic and distress caught the man's eyes, he released Ye Shaowen's hand and turned to take out his phone.
Shangguan Yunli immediately gestured to Old Master Lu, "Sorry for causing so much trouble today, I will surely visit to extend my regards another day!"
"Just like that trying to..."
Lu Cen wanted to go after him, but was stopped by Old Master Lu, "Xiao Cen, stay calm."
They have just moved back to the country, the foundation hasn't yet stabilized, even if the event was ruined, we absolutely cannot make enemies with these two powerful families.
Ye Shaowen looked at his hand that had been released, not even leaving a red mark, he thought it was impressive, but it turns out to be just a paper tiger, all show, no substance.
With skills like that, trying to pursue Xiao Yezi back then, won't he still need Xiao Yezi to protect him in the future?
In the blink of an eye, he saw Lu Cen's arm and leg, which was just hit, still trembling uncontrollably, "..." This guy is weak too, got hit by a paper tiger and is still shaking, neither of them matches Xiao Yezi!
Ye Juncheng observed Bo Tingshen's retreating figure, clutching the high heel, a gleam flashed behind his gold-rimmed glasses.
"Shaowen, isn't he Xianxian's boss?"
"Yes, but not anymore."
Ye Shaowen smirked, Xiao Yezi ran too fast just now, he didn't get the chance to share the good news with her.
Now, she's not an employee of Star Entertainment anymore, there's no need to fear Bo Tingshen, even if caught, it doesn't matter.
"Reinvestigate Ye Xian, find out exactly what 'he' has to do with the Ye family's youngest daughter."
Receiving the task, Xiao Sui immediately got to work, delving deeper into the investigation of Ye Xian based on previous research, even utilizing the positioning system embedded in her phone, acquiring big data, this time, discovering something entirely unexpected…
