âFather, youâre always like this. When you choose a husband for me, you must look at his status, background, and his family background. And these are all things that Manli doesnât like.â
âThen what do you like?â
When she met her fatherâs expectant gaze, Helian Manliâs black pupils settled down. She hesitated for a moment before saying, âI like...â
âAs long as you have someone you like, you can bring them to father to meet. Even if you donât have any status or background, as long as your character is outstanding enough to be worthy of my Helian familyâs daughter and have enough qualifications to be your husband, I will agree to the two of you dating.â
âReally?âHearing her fatherâs words, Helian Manliâs eyes suddenly lit up.
âOf course. However, you canât judge him with your eyes. I must personally judge him.â
âFather will definitely think that heâs a talent. Other than his status and background, heâs definitely not inferior to the third young master of the Bourne family.â
âOh? So youâre saying...âhe liantianâs amber eyes were mesmerized as he looked at his daughter in front of him. âDo you have someone you like?â
Helian Manli paused. Suddenly, she realized that she had inadvertently exposed something.
After a few seconds of silence, she looked at her father and spoke, âI do have someone I like, but I havenât confessed to him yet. So, father, donât interfere in this matter. Once Iâve confirmed his feelings, I will naturally tell you who he is.â
âThen, did he come to this grand gathering today?â
Helian Manli nodded, the corners of her mouth raised into a smile. âYes.â
âAlright, I wonât interfere. However, since the relationship hasnât been confirmed, that third young master of the Bourne family seems to be interested in you. In a while, he will still take you to see him. On this point, you canât reject me.â
Hearing her fatherâs words, Helian Manli couldnât help but reject him.
âFather, since Iâve already said so, why are you still...â
âYes... Iâve already promised him this matter, so I must definitely meet him. As for whether the two of you will be together, I wonât interfere.â
Hearing this, Helian Manli thought for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement.
âFather, the grand meeting will begin in five minutes. I still have a guest upstairs, so Iâll be leaving first.â
After she finished speaking, Helian Manli, who was dressed in grand attire, walked elegantly into the hall.
Looking at his daughterâs back view, he liantian rarely smiled in satisfaction.
On the 13th floor, Xiang Yi was dressed in a black suit, standing at the elevator door and waiting. Looking at the time on his wrist, he knew that at this time, sir had already arrived at the hotel entrance.
âDing!â
As the sound rang out, Xiang Yi looked up and was about to enter the elevator when he saw Helian Manli standing in the elevator.
His expression froze. He was obviously a little surprised by her appearance.
âMiss Manli, why are you here?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
The grand meeting was about to begin in five minutes, and she was the main character of the day. Now that she was not in the Grand Meeting Hall, why did she come here instead?
âLetâs talk after we enter,âHelian Manli said with a gentle smile as she looked at the man at the elevator entrance.
Xiang Yi calmly glanced at her and then walked into the elevator.
âYou donât have a female companion, right?âHelian Manli suddenly asked in the elevator.
Xiang Yi was still a little puzzled. His deep and handsome face was always calm.
He came to country a alone. In the past twenty-seven years, other than an Zhihan, who was once considered a friend, he didnât have any friends of the opposite sex, let alone a female companion.
Although Nuannuan had brought both male and female companions to this grand event, she had not come. He neither had a female companion to bring nor did he want to bring one.
