Strongest Immortal Emperor in City

At this time, it was four o'clock. Gong Liang and Wu Kun both entered the inner hall. The host on the stage was dressed in formal attire and had a professional smile on his face.    

    

Wu Mingxuan followed behind the four of them. As soon as he entered the inner hall, he felt a strange feeling. The guests did not have smiles on their faces. They looked like they were here to see a joke. They looked at him with pity and schadenfreude.    

    

"What's going on?"    

    

He found it very strange, but he could not figure out the crux of the matter.    

    

Wu Kun looked at his watch and saw that it was time. He nodded at the host on stage. The host immediately picked up the microphone and spoke in a clear voice.    

    

"Friends, family, and guests, welcome to the Glory Hotel to witness the engagement process of the newcomers!"    

    

His tone was passionate. He had indeed received professional training and his standard was not low. After saying this, he deliberately paused, and a round of applause came from below the stage.    

    

Gong Liang's face was red, and his gaze swept around. Suddenly, there was a difference. Although these guests were clapping, almost every one of them was expressionless and did not look happy.    

    

He did not think too much about it and thought that this was the style of the big shots, allowing the host to continue hosting.    

    

"In this world, the most romantic love is none other than childhood sweethearts. Two childhood playmates, after being separated for ten years, reuniting once more, the feelings in their hearts are still the same. How precious is this?"    

    

"Next, invite our female lead today, the daughter of the Spirit Sword Sect's Hall Master, Miss Gong Yuwei, onto the stage!"    

    

This time, the thunderous applause was even louder than before. The light shone to the side of the curtain. Gong Yuwei was dressed in a pure white evening dress, like a noble and elegant princess of the royal family. She was wearing crystal high heels and came at the right time.    

    

Wu Mingxuan's eyes were filled with adoration and greed. When he thought of the fiancee that belonged to him alone after today, the excitement in his heart could not be suppressed.    

    

Gong Yuwei's face carried a trace of loneliness, but she still forced a smile and stood on the stage.    

    

The young male emcee's eyes flashed with astonishment, secretly envious of Wu Mingxuan's luck with women. But he did not forget his job and continued, "Next, let's invite the male lead of today, the young master of the Heavenly Pavilion. Young master Wu Mingxuan, step onto the stage!"    

    

Mingxuan wore a plain white suit. He was tall and well-trimmed, and his appearance was quite handsome. He looked like a prince on a white horse in a fairy tale as he walked step by step onto the stage.    

    

He stared at Gong Yuwei with an expression. Then, he stood on both sides of the emcee with one on the left and the other on the right.    

    

Gong Yuwei's heart immediately became nervous. She looked around. She wanted to see the person deep in her heart, but also did not want to see him appear. It was extremely contradictory.    

    

Suddenly, her eyes focused and her red lips slightly opened. There was a look of surprise on her face. Ye Chen sat on the back seat on the left, and a pair of eyes as deep as the stars were looking at her!    

    

"Why... why is he here?"    

    

Gong Yuwei was both happy and surprised.    

    

Ye Chen still had that calm expression on his face. Gong Yuwei's heart was slightly sad.    

    

"Maybe it was mom who invited him to attend the engagement ceremony!"    

    

She never thought that Ye Chen would come for her.    

    

Gong Yuwei's eyes fell on Ye Chen and could not move away anymore. She only wanted to take another look at him and remember his appearance and that cold expression forever in her heart.    

    

"The first time I saw you, you were like a beggar. Why would I treat you well?"    

    

"You always ignore others with an indifferent expression, and you don't care about anything. How would I know that you have that extraordinary ability?"    

    

"My way of speaking is annoying. How would you know? I care about you!"    

    

"You are always cold and indifferent. Do you know how many people you can charm when you smile?"    

    

"I really want to know what the girl beside you is like. Unfortunately, from today onwards, I may not even have the right to look for you, right?"    

    

Her mind was filled with thoughts. The scenes of her meeting with Ye Chen until now flashed in her mind. Her face was full of smiles, and her eyes were sparkling.    

    

"Ye Chen, I like you, but I will bury these words in my heart. I will never say it to you!"    

    

With this glance, she seemed to have suppressed all the lingering feelings in her heart, and turned her gaze in another direction.    

    

Ye Chen's eyes slightly narrowed. That glance of Gong Yuwei just now contained too many things.    

    

Wu Mingxuan deliberately looked in the direction of Ye Chen with a bit of complacency.    

    

"Kid, I don't care what your identity is, no matter what methods you use to make Yuwei like you so much, but after today, she will be my fiancee. You will definitely lose!"    

    

The emcee saw that both the male and female leads had arrived and continued, "Everyone, tonight's male and female leads are already standing by my side. Miss Wu is as beautiful as a fairy, and Young Master Luo is handsome and unrestrained. Truly a match of talent and beauty. It's a perfect match. "    

    

"Their union is absolutely a fine work of heaven!" The host continued, "The two of them wasted ten years, and now that fate has brought them together again... It was truly rare and precious. This type of relationship made one envious. It is worth everyone's blessings. "    

    

"The two of them became an unmarried couple. This is fate set by the heavens. I believe that everyone here has the same thoughts."    

    

The host smiled: "This pair of prospective newlyweds who have experienced the test of time can become an unmarried couple. Everyone probably wouldn't object, right? Then, I would like to ask Young Master Luo to bring Miss Wu the love token that he had carefully prepared. We will pass the time to the male and female lead tonight!"    

    

After saying that, the emcee smiled and stepped back, allowing Gong Yuwei to face Wu Mingxuan face to face.    

    

Wu Mingxuan's movements were very nimble. He took out an exquisite gift box from his pocket. When the gift box was opened, a dazzling light shot out. It was a Heavenly Treasure necklace inlaid with nine blue gems.    

    

"Yuwei, this is prepared for you!"    

    

Wu Mingxuan's eyes were full of affection, but Gong Yuwei's heart became nervous again. She was not willing to lower her head at the right time. She knew that once she wore this necklace, she would definitely be Wu Mingxuan's fiancee.    

    

Deng Ya's eyes were complicated and Hu Qiaoxue who was sitting on the other side of the guest seats also had a serious look. Only they knew that Gong Yuwei was struggling in her heart at this moment.    

    

Wu Mingxuan saw that Gong Yuwei did not lower her head for a long time and was anxious in his heart. He wanted to pull Gong Yuwei's slender hand.    

    

At this moment, an untimely voice sounded in the inner hall.    

    

"Wait, who said that no one objected?"    

    

Hearing this voice, Gong Yuwei in the suburbs trembled and turned her head in disbelief.    

    

Wu Mingxuan's expression changed drastically and he also looked over.    

    

Gong Liang, Wu Kun, and Dong Min also looked in the direction of the voice with angry faces. Only Deng Ya had a look of surprise on her face.    

    

Where their eyes gathered, Ye Chen had a calm expression on his face as he stood with his head held high.    

    

"I object. How about it?"    

    

He ignored the murderous gazes of Wu Mingxuan and the others and spoke in a clear voice. Everyone in the inner hall heard him clearly.    

    

"He... Why?"    

    

Gong Yuwei was surprised and puzzled. She did not know why Ye Chen would stand out at this time.
