Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 1208 - 1207: Spare You the Trouble

At this moment, Xiao Keyi was extremely scared, afraid that Xu Ke would have a bad impression of her after knowing this matter, unsure of how to explain it, her face turned pale.

Yu Hao, seeing Xiao Keyi’s expression, curled his lips into a pleasing smile, it seemed, just as he suspected.

Xu Ke, however, did not expect that the challenging young man in front of him would mention the words ’fiancé’.

But, isn’t he supposed to be the fiancé?

"Yu Hao, what are you talking about? That’s just something my grandfather mentioned casually, how could it be taken seriously?"

After Xiao Keyi finished speaking, she forced herself to look a little better and sneaked a glance at Xu Ke.

But Xu Ke didn’t expect Xiao Keyi to regard the marriage in such a way, so he pressed his lips tightly together, looking very upset. Xiao Keyi was suddenly dumbfounded, did Xu Ke really believe what Yu Hao said?

However, she really had never met that so-called fiancé, let alone developed any feelings. Was it all her fault? For the first time, Xiao Keyi felt that having this fiancé was her trouble.

At this moment, Xu Ke couldn’t believe that Xiao Keyi would despise the fiancé in her heart; he originally thought Xiao Keyi was different from those other women.

At least, from what he knew of Xiao Keyi, even though she came from a prestigious family, she wasn’t someone who loved the rich and despised the poor. But now, it seems, Xiao Keyi is no different from those women, only showing her claws under the drive of interests.

Yu Hao gave a sarcastic smile, indeed any man, upon hearing the other party has a fiancé, would retreat, even the unusual CEO of Xiao Group’s branch.

So, Yu Hao quickly showed what he considered a gentle smile, looked at Xiao Keyi, and said, "Yiyi, some men are unreliable, so don’t ever trust them. You are still just a young girl, innocent to the world, which is why you were deceived. But rest assured, I will never let you get hurt."

As he spoke, his eyes were tender as water, but when looking at Xu Ke, it carried a provocative and victorious gaze.

Xu Ke looked at him, not knowing where this person got the confidence from; the fiancé that Xiao Keyi mentioned was himself, and now the one beside Xiao Keyi was also him.

Hearing these words, Xiao Keyi shook her little head, stepped back, and said to Yu Hao particularly distantly, "You don’t need to bother."

This person’s appearance today seemed like a friendly counsel, but if he hadn’t revealed everything earlier, would Xu Ke have known any of this?

Thinking of this, Xiao Keyi’s gaze gradually deepened, and at this moment Yu Hao, sensing Xiao Keyi’s awareness, felt a bit panicked and wanted to explain something, but unexpectedly, he saw Xiao Keyi holding Xu Ke’s hand, walking toward other investors.

After hearing Xiao Keyi’s words, Xu Ke’s heart finally settled, watching the girl in front of him jumping around while pulling him.

Maybe he was overthinking earlier, but what was he thinking? Isn’t her fiancé supposed to be him? Thinking of this, Xu Ke felt a bit annoyed.

"Yiyi girl, who’s this you’re holding? Could it be the legendary CEO of the Xiao Group’s branch mentioned in the recent news? I’ve never seen you bring a boy into such a public occasion before, would you introduce him to me?"

An elder appeared at this time, looking to be seventy or eighty years old, with gray hair but in good spirits. When looking at Xu Ke, there was an air of scrutiny on his face, even the aura of someone superior, which made Xu Ke highly respectful toward the elder before him.

And at that moment, the elder, seeing that although Xu Ke was a young man, adjusted his attitude seriously after just a glance, felt slightly more satisfied.

"Grandpa Lan, it’s you! I was just planning to take him to see you, didn’t expect to meet you so soon, really sorry to make you come to see us."

As Xiao Keyi spoke, she immediately introduced the two of them, and as she spoke, her little lips moved continuously, Xu Ke quickly looked away.

Hearing Xiao Keyi’s high praises for the person in front of him, even the elderly couldn’t help but take another look.

"To have my god-granddaughter see you so favorably, it seems you indeed have good abilities. Work well, don’t let the Xiao Family down."

Xu Ke nodded, didn’t expect that this elder was the legendary top artist in the country, Mr. Lan, who usually doesn’t attend such gatherings, and tonight was there because of inspiration.

General artists either paint mountains or water, and also go outside to sketch, but Mr. Lan is different; in his later years, he found unprecedented talent and inspiration in the field of games and animation.

He has uncovered many unprecedented works, which is also the reason for attending tonight.

After saying goodbye to Mr. Lan, Xiao Keyi whispered to Xu Ke’s ear.

"Don’t look down on Mr. Lan just because he is an artist and not in the business battlefield; Mr. Lan’s network, even business people dread quite a bit, so don’t underestimate him."

When Xiao Keyi said this, she was also kind-hearted, afraid Xu Ke might make a mistake, didn’t expect Xu Ke to answer smoothly after she finished speaking, "Rest assured, I understand, he is indeed a respectable and venerable artist and also a respectable elder."

For such veteran artists, Xu Ke has always been particularly respectful, so when Xiao Keyi saw Xu Ke like this, she was a bit surprised, generally someone like Xu Ke wouldn’t pay much attention to such matters, and yet today, he explained a few more words to her.

"Boss, it seems we came here just to drink, and there’s nothing related to anime and games, is this really hosted by the anime and game industry?"

At this moment, Pan Xuehai frowned, having this question all along the way, but dared not ask it. But after seeing that old gentleman, he couldn’t hold it anymore, so he took a step forward and voiced his confusion.

"You’re still young and don’t understand; actually, after three rounds of drinking is the main part. You all are just stepping into society, so follow along and learn a bit first."

Xiao Keyi was about to explain, but unexpectedly Xu Ke explained for these few individuals, and he did so very patiently.

It seems Xu Ke particularly cares for these people, they must have made their way into Xu Ke’s heart, yet, when will Xu Ke care for someone else specially?

Thinking of this, Xiao Keyi found herself somewhat expectant, but seeing Xu Ke’s determined back, she realized it was impossible, and couldn’t help but chuckle, what was she thinking?
