Chapter 966: The Ye Family Is In Trouble, Even Brother Cheng’s Identity Got Exposed

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Those who were invited to the handover ceremony were all influential figures on Jijing Island.

They came from strong backgrounds and were very powerful.

Everyone had met one another in one way or another.

The unfamiliar voice sounded very suddenly.

As Jijing Island regarded passing down the bloodline very highly, outsiders were strictly forbidden at events like this.

In the entirety of Jijing Island, only Huo Zhi and the Head Elder held special power.

However, from Huo Zhi’s reaction, it was obvious that they were not expecting someone else to join them.

Everyone’s gaze shifted to the door solemnly.

They saw Ye Junci and Ye You with an unfamiliar man.

The man was wearing a black suit. His buttons were undone and he was not wearing a tie, making him look carefree and languid.

However, the black shirt he was wearing inside was buttoned up all the way formally.

With one hand in his pocket, he walked to the first row of seats calmly.

When Old Master Bai saw him, he sighed lightly. “You finally came. My heart was being tortured by those two people.”

Bai Zhang nodded and heaved a sigh of relief.

However, when they saw the people surrounding them, they were reminded of Jijing Island’s rules. Their gaze darkened again.

He tilted his head slightly and said in a low voice, “Dad, the Ye family is in trouble now.”

Now that there was an uninvited guest at the event, the group of people, who were very competitive with each other, came together instantly to deal with the outsider.

Especially because the other party’s aura was so strong.

“Lu Chengzhou?” Someone recognized the man and said hesitantly, as if he was not sure why he would see him here.

Lu Chengzhou seldom revealed himself and he did not know a lot of people.

However, he had still met a few people who were present at the venue.

When they saw him, they were especially shocked.

Hearing the name, the tense atmosphere in the conference hall stirred.

In the capital, the Lu family had a special existence. They were a powerful family with extremely rich resources.

However, after Matriarch Lu had passed away, the family seemed to have broken into pieces.

Nevertheless, the words “Lu family” still left a strong impression on everyone.

Not to mention this member of the Lu family.

Someone asked in disbelief, “Who are you referring to? That person from the Lu family in the capital?”

The other party nodded and frowned uncontrollably. “Why is he here?”

The scars on Leng Xuan’s face were mostly healed.

However, she still wore a mask every time she went out.

Seeing Lu Chengzhou, she touched her face subconsciously and pulled up her mask.

It was as if she was terrified that he would see her flawed face.

Lu Chengzhou walked into the conference hall without looking at anyone else. His gaze was fixed on the girl who was giving her speech on the podium, and Huo Zhi, who was beside her.

His dark and cold eyes were radiating animosity.

Looking at Huo Zhi, Ye Junci smiled faintly. “Sorry, we are late.”

The handover ceremony had already ended. Upon hearing Ye Junci’s insincere and perfunctory apology, the people from the Elders’ Association did not look too good.

Especially when she had brought an outsider without permission.

“Madam Ye.” Elder Bi stood up with a stern expression. He glanced at Lu Chengzhou. “As someone with status like yours, do you still need us to reiterate Jijing Island’s rules to you?”

Ye Junci walked to her seat and sat down indifferently.

She turned around, still smiling. “What rules?”

Frowning, Elder Leng said with an even colder tone, “What are you trying to do by bringing an outsider here without any prior notice?”

“Since when did I bring an outsider?” Ye Junci crossed her legs and hugged her elbows. She tilted her head to look at Elder Bi, who was a pathway’s distance away, with a cold gaze.

By saying this, it was as if she was treating everyone here like fools.

She had already brought someone in so openly, yet she was still lying without batting an eyelid.

Elder Bi snorted. “Are you planning to say that you do not know Lu Chengzhou or are you going to say that you are related to him? Do you need me to give you some ideas, Godson?”

“What do you mean, Godson? Isn’t she just stirring trouble?! Since when did we allow outsiders to participate in Jijing Island’s internal meetings without permission?” Old Master Leng said with disdain.

Lu Chengzhou remained standing. He leaned on the seat with a placard that read “Young Master Lu” languidly.

Holding the trapezium-shaped placard, he placed it upright and leaned on it very arrogantly.

It was a form of arrogance that expressed how he did not even take this status seriously.

The man looked at the podium with a pair of dark eyes.

As if there was a thorn in his eyes, his gaze was cold and ruthless.

The Head Elder glanced at the side and immediately realized for whom the Young Master Ye’s seat was prepared for.

Godson?

He said calmly, “No outsiders are allowed to participate in the internal matters of Jijing Island. Madam Ye, I don’t care about what’s going on with you and the Lu family. If you do not want to invite trouble for the Ye family, please escort this outsider out of here.”

Ye Junci’s gaze was cold as she said slowly, “Outsiders cannot come in, but my biological son, who is also the Young Master of the Ye family, is allowed to come in, right?”

Old Master Bai and Bai Zhang were still worried about how this situation would end up when they heard this. Instantly, they looked up in a daze.

Biological… Son?

Elder Bi looked at Ye Junci stiffly. “Your son?”

Everyone’s attention shifted.

Everyone knew that Ye Junci was unmarried. She had always brought her own niece, Ye You, to all sorts of events.

The Young Master Ye that Ye Junci was referring to was… her biological son, Lu Chengzhou?

How could this be?!

If the Ye family and the Lu family had ties, Jijing Island would have known about it!

Since Huo Zhi assumed his position, his knowledge of past events was restricted to those available in the documents.

However, Head Elder was different. Not only was he one of the most powerful figures on Jijing Island, he was also one of the oldest Elders.

When he heard Ye Junci’s words, fragments of memories flashed in his mind.

Ye Junci was the most outstanding junior in the Ye family. Ever since she left Base 102, she was appointed as the successor of the family.

However, not long after that, Ye Junci went missing.

Although the Ye family had told everyone that Ye Junci had left to gain some experience, it did not sound very believable.

What place had better resources than Jijing Island? Leaving to gain experience simply sounded like a cover-up that only made matters worse.

Everyone guessed that something had happened to Ye Junci.

When the Ye family lost a successor, almost all the other families were glad. After all, who would not be happy to know that there would be one less strong opponent?

However, four years later, Ye Junci returned and she was granted much power.

Under her care, the Ye family’s status rose abruptly.

Even though she was extremely low-profile on Jijing Island, no one dared to provoke Ye Junci.

However, with regards to her whereabouts during the four years, there was no information available on any intelligence networks.

The Head Elder was reminded of the Lu family’s information.

The official hostess of the Lu family who had never revealed herself remained a mystery.

If that person was Ye Junci, then everything would make sense.

Everyone who was sitting here had incredible thinking abilities.

Soon, everyone understood what was going on.

Huo Zhi also suddenly understood why Ye Junci, who had always been neutral, would stand up for Gu Mang during the assessment at Base 102.

Ye Junci smiled. “If there is nothing else, let’s all take a seat. Mr. Huo still has things to announce. Let’s not waste time.”

Huo Zhi had made ample preparations for today. He activated large quantities of arms and stationed them outside the Council House solely because he wanted to prevent any accidents.

Looking at how Lu Chengzhou was staring at Gu Mang, he clenched his fists.

He did not lose his memory at all.

Lu Chengzhou had made everyone believe that he did not remember Gu Mang anymore.

He had hid his relationship with Ye Junci for so many years. Now, he appeared here as the Young Master of the Ye family.

He did not even have any reason to make a move.

When Lu Chengzhou’s identity was exposed, the atmosphere became even more tense.

Huo Zhi’s gaze was dark. Two seconds later, he relaxed his fists and the corners of his lip curled up slowly. “Is Young Master Lu here to attend the engagement ceremony of Ms. Gu and I?”

As he spoke, he reached out to pull Gu Mang to his side.

This action seemed a little forced.

The girl suddenly took a few steps forward and left the podium.

Huo Zhi’s hand was left hanging in mid-air. He clenched his fists as he saw Gu Mang approach Lu Chengzhou.

The expressions of Old Master Gu, the Head Elder and others changed.

The camera shutters of the media seemed to be sounding more frequently and aggressively than just now.

Gu Mang walked to Lu Chengzhou. Without any obvious change in her expression, she looked at everyone and said carelessly, “I too, have something to inform everyone.”

Her word choice was very different from what Huo Zhi had used.

The word “inform” gave off a sense of absoluteness that suppressed everyone present.

Old Master Gu sensed something bad coming.
