Chapter 48 - Lin Xiyuan\'s Graceful Presence at the Tea Party

“Sir, do you have an invitation?” The security guard asked politely, aware that tonight’s attendees were all influential people.

Jiang Che was about to show his invitation when Li Chengfeng descended from the yacht, berating the guards. “Are you blind? Not recognizing Jiang Che, the young master of the Jiang family?”

Apologizing, the guards quickly cleared the way for Jiang Che, who didn’t bother to make a fuss over such trivial matters. It was normal for these guards not to recognize him since he rarely mingled in social circles.

Li Chengfeng chided the guards further before joining Jiang Che. “Heh, you’re here, Boss!”

“What’s with this sudden party? Whose yacht is this?” Jiang Che asked, looking at the luxurious vessel.

“It’s hosted by Bai Chengyun, the new head of the Bai family. He’s organizing this party to consolidate his power and influence,” Li Chengfeng explained.

He added that Bai Chengyun’s brothers were also eyeing the family leadership, making internal competition fierce.

Jiang Che was slightly surprised at Li Chengfeng’s insight. He realized that Li was more perceptive than he appeared.

Just like the last party hosted by Wang Shao, this was another networking opportunity for the influential.

As they boarded the yacht, Jiang Che noted that this party had a broader invite list than the previous one, including many notable figures from Linjiang City.

“Let’s head in,” Jiang Che said, leading the way onto the yacht, with Li Chengfeng following.

Once on board, they found many elites and socialites, all exchanging pleasantries and toasts. Li Chengfeng informed Jiang Che about the various activities planned, including singing, dancing, and even a poetry exchange session.

“A poetry exchange? That sounds interesting,” Jiang Che remarked, his interest piqued. He had read some ancient poetry since arriving in this world and noticed many differences from his previous world.

“Yes, many daughters of reputable families will be participating. Are you interested in poetry, Boss?” Li Chengfeng asked, knowing Jiang Che’s academic prowess but never hearing of his poetry skills.

“I have a bit of knowledge…” Jiang Che replied modestly, actually just not wanting to delve too deep into the topic with Li Chengfeng.

“Welcome everyone to the party I, Bai Chengyun, have hosted. Feel free to enjoy yourselves…” After a few formal words, Bai Chengyun stepped off the central stage, making way for a dance performance.

A group of young girls in white dresses, likely fresh college graduates, gracefully took to the stage and began dancing.

Jiang Che watched for a while but soon lost interest. Accustomed to Shen Qingqiu’s stunning beauty, he found these ordinary girls unimpressive. Li Chengfeng, however, seemed utterly fascinated by the performance.

Jiang Che found a seat and gazed out at the night view, sipping his red wine. His attention was soon caught by a familiar figure.

Lin Xiyuan, wearing an elegant fur-trimmed cheongsam, was engaged in a lively conversation with a group of rich young ladies in a corner.

Smirking, Jiang Che took his wine and approached Lin Xiyuan.

…

“May I have the pleasure of sharing a drink with you, miss?” Jiang Che asked as he approached Lin Xiyuan, who had been discussing ancient poetry with her companions.

Initially annoyed by the interruption, her irritation only grew upon recognizing Jiang Che.

“Oh… if it isn’t Jiang Che,” Lin Xiyuan remarked sarcastically. “Should I address you as ‘Senior Jiang’ or ‘Brother-in-law’?”

Jiang Che, slightly amused and irritated by her tone, replied, “I don’t understand what you’re talking about, Miss Lin. Don’t mistakenly call me your brother-in-law; I’m certainly not that.”

His response, feigning ignorance, it seemed that Ye Chen had told Lin Xiyuan about his relationship with Shen Qingqiu.
