Chapter 994: The Key

you know that. That Chinese guy up there even publicly humiliated Sato Kaito, the eldest son of the Sato family...""I heard that the Chinese man even provoked Tanaka Hiroji. A Chinese man came to our...Of course, the family head's order is the family head's order, representing the supreme authority of the Dongfang family. It can mobilize anyone to do anything.

Under the watchful eyes of all, Eastern Construction gave an answer without hesitation.

The public stance taken by the Eastern family immediately solidified the entire battlefield situation, completely suppressing the Western family.

Standing behind Eastern Construction, Dongfang Qitian was even more unceremonious: "Mr. Ye, do you need me to make a move"

Ye Bufan smiled slightly: "I don't need it for now, I was just asking casually."

Everyone present was not a fool, obviously knowing this was far from a casual question.

And yet, at this moment, the young man was laughing and joking. With just one sentence, he completely changed the course of events. No wonder people weren't nervous; it turned out he had been in control all along.

Ye Bufan looked at Ximen Fengyun again: "Head of the Ximen family, I think there was something wrong with what you just said."

How did the Ximen family become the first great family in the imperial capital Is it just because you have two Heaven Rank Great Completions

Have you ever thought about it I'm the great-grandson of the Changsun family. If Qingye Shi Tai is also considered part of the Changsun family, then are you still the first family

"This..."

Ximen Fengyun's expression changed drastically. Becoming the number one family in the imperial capital had been his dream for many years.

Moreover, with Ximen Fengxue successfully reaching the peak of the Heavenly Steps, he was overjoyed. This thought had been in his mind constantly, so it slipped out unthinkingly.

It seems we were a little too optimistic.

Ye Bufan is the grandson of the Changsun family. If he lets this old nun join the Changsun family, she will also have two masters at the peak of Heaven's Rank, and they will be stronger than their own.

I'd heard long ago that the girl from the Dongfang family had changed, now she likes men and is always getting close to this boy.

If Ye Bufan became the son-in-law of Dongfang Construction, the Dongfang family would instantly obtain a Heaven Rank Grandmaster and assets worth trillions. They would inevitably become the first family in the Imperial Capital.

At this moment, he was shocked to discover that the young man before him had become the key to deciding the fate of the imperial capital's prominent families.

He will join which family, which family will become the first family.

As soon as the idea popped into his head, a cold sweat broke out on his back. It seemed that the situation today was beyond saving.

Moreover, the Dongfang family has already publicly taken sides. If he presses too hard, the Changsun and Dongfang families uniting, the Ximen family will have absolutely no hope of winning.

Seeing that he remained silent, Ye Bufan smiled faintly once again. As the head of the Xi Men family, he was definitely not a fool; he should be able to figure out the key to the problem.

The head of the Xi Men clan is a reasonable person. I'm bringing people to leave now, and you probably won't stop me anymore, right

Ximen Fengyun's face turned ashen, but he didn't say a word. To be precise, he really had nothing to say at the moment.

Agreeing to let them leave would be like slapping the face of the Ximen family.

If he continues to obstruct, does he have the courage That would bring unimaginable disaster to the Xi Men family.

“Okay, let’s go.”

Ye Bufan's expression was calm and composed. He reached out his hand and took Gu Qingcheng's hand, then waved to Changsun Dongju, "Mom, we're going back."

After he finished speaking, he strode toward the hotel entrance. Although the Ximen family had many skilled individuals, Ximen Fenglei and Ximen Fengxue stood nearby with hawk-like gazes, yet none dared to stop him.

No one ever thought that simply walking a few steps holding a woman's hand could demonstrate such overwhelming power, leaving them breathless.

Ye Bufan walked to Ximen Yujiao's side, stopped his steps, and a playful smile flashed across his face.

"Miss Ximen, aren't you disappointed"

This whole thing is this woman's fault, so he naturally wouldn't be polite.

After saying that, he lashed out with a powerful slap, sending Xi Men Yujiao flying back over ten meters. She crashed into three or four tables in a row, her body covered in spilled wine and food, leaving her utterly humiliated for a moment.

After finishing, he pulled out a tissue from the nearby table and wiped his hands, then left the hotel with everyone else.

Gu Pengju naturally didn't dare to stay any longer, otherwise the Xi Men family would surely skin him alive. He immediately left with his Gu family members in tow.

Deep down, he was still very pleased. Although the marriage with the Ximen family fell through, his daughter's chosen man turned out to be so powerful. The Gu family's rise was imminent.

Seeing this scene, all the guests present couldn't help but gasp. This wasn't just about beating up Ximen Yujiao; it was an assault on the entire Ximen family's reputation.

The most pitiful thing is that the Ximen family can only watch helplessly and dare not make any statement.

Ximen Fengyun's face was as dark as thunder, his fists clenched tightly, but in the end, he still held back.

He knew very well that once he gave the order to attack, it would be the Xi Men family who would ultimately lose. Not only would they suffer a complete loss of face, but their strength would also be greatly diminished.

Dongfang Jianye smiled slightly, stood up from the VIP seat, and left with the people of the Dongfang family.

Ye Bufan left, taking the bride who was supposed to be engaged today. Naturally, the engagement banquet could not continue.

The other guests also bid farewell one after another. Time flew by, and the grand Tiancheng Hotel became deserted, leaving only those from the Xi Men family.

Now, those crimson backdrops and balloons floating in the sky seem like a mockery.

Ximen Yuliang and Ximen Yujiao were so angry they were about to go mad, but there was nothing they could do to change the current situation.

The scheme worked, Ye Bufan came to steal the bride, but they only guessed the beginning and not the end.

Not only did they suffer no injuries, but they also slapped the Ximen family hard in the face.

Suddenly, a thought occurred to both of them: how could they possibly deal with Ximen Fengyun's wrath

"What are you still doing here Get back inside!"

Ximen Fengyun let out a loud roar, then strode out of the hotel.

He had many things to do, but this place was clearly not appropriate.

The others glanced at each other and all followed back to the Xi Men residence.

After leaving the hotel, Gu Pengju awkwardly came before Ye Bufan, looked at the happy Gu Qingcheng, and then said: "Xiao Ye, Qingcheng is now entrusted to you."

Although the old man's character was a bit lacking, he was still Gu Qingcheng's father after all. Ye Bufan nodded.

"Don't worry, I won't let Qingcheng suffer any injustice."

"Well, then I'll go back first. I'll come visit you again later."

Gu Pengju said that he took the Gu family people and immediately left the capital. As the head of the Gu family, he was not a fool, on the contrary, he was very visionary.

After today's events, the Ximen family will probably not let this go. The Imperial Capital will be in turmoil again, and they can only be caught in the crossfire here. It's best to return to Jiangnan as soon as possible for safety.

"Qing Cheng, you go with my mother to the Changsun family first. I still have some things to take care of."

After that, he entrusted Gu Qingcheng and Elder Qingye to Changsun Dongju. He then gave them a few more instructions before leaving with Rudolf and the others to head towards the Eastern Family.

Oriental Jianye returned home and had just sat down in the living room, raising a teacup to his lips when the housekeeper rushed in.

"Master, Mr. Ye is here."

Oriental Jianye was slightly surprised and put down the teacup in his hand.

"Please come in."

Soon, the butler led Ye Bufan in, followed by Rudolf and his men.

Dongfang Jianye rose to greet him, smiling and saying, "Mr. Ye, congratulations on your successful elopement. Shouldn't you be with Miss Gu now Why are you here at our Dongfang residence" take you with him. After all, you are father and son, sharing both good fortune and hardship.""What You killed my father That's impossible!"Douglas's face was filled with disbelief. In his mind, besi...
