Even though he had recognized the wrong person, he still stubbornly stayed in the back garden for a long time.
He believed that Mu Qianqian had returned. Since she had, he would not let her leave his side.
The banquet hall was still bustling with noise and excitement. Many of the top officials and famous female celebrities wanted to rush over when they saw Rong Heting return alone.
However, the cold aura from Rong Heting's body made them stop in their tracks.
"I say, big brother, it's rare to see you participate in a banquet. Can you please focus?" Hua Yunrong passed a glass of strong alcohol to Rong Heting and teased him teasingly.
"Where's Luo Yu?" Rong Heting took the wine cup and drank it all in one gulp.
"I haven't been back since I left." As Hua Yunrong said this, his eyes unconsciously drifted towards the direction where Luo Yu had left earlier.
Since Luo Yu was regarded as a simple and easy father's land, Hua Yunrong said he didn't mind taking the opportunity to cheat Luo Yu.
"He probably slipped away when he saw the situation turn bad." He raised his eyebrows carelessly, "Ling Ao also came tonight."
"Ling Ao?" The matter of Luo Yu sneaking away did not cause too much of a commotion for Rong Heting. On the contrary, he was somewhat surprised by Ling Ao's arrival.
"They say that an important figure from the political world is present." Hua Yunrong gestured in the direction of Ling Ao.
Rong Heting nodded to show that he already knew. Seeing Ling Ao and a few other members of Parliament whispering to each other, he decided not to go forward to participate.
The Ling and Rong Families were still an important cooperative relationship, but now, Rong Heting was focused on consolidating his empire in the business world. Ling Ao also had the family mission to stabilize his position in the political world.
The two of them only exchanged a few words in private.
"Heting." Finally, after a short conversation, Ling Ao walked over to Rong Heting with his glass.
"Arrogant, it's been a while." Rong Heting took the initiative to raise his glass and greet Ling Ao.
"Why don't you just tell me which political figures need to trouble you to personally receive them so that I don't have to guess them?" Rong Heting teased.
Ling Ao's usually indifferent face revealed a trace of helplessness. He walked a little closer to Rong Heting, and whispered in Rong Heting's ear as he explained, "It's the Prince of Pekka from Sofia Country."
"Sofia Country?" When the answer was revealed, even Rong Heting frowned in confusion.
Although Sofia Country was not a small country, it had always been a low profile in international diplomatic activities. Thus, people did not know much about the country's royal family members, especially this newly appointed Prince Pegasus, whom they had never seen before.
Rong Heting was also surprised by the arrival of Prince Peg.
"If Sofia Country were to always remain low-key, it would not be enough for me to personally receive it."
Ling Ao shook the wine in his cup lightly, "But in these few years, the participation of Sofia Country in external affairs has suddenly increased a lot, not just in the political world."
Needless to say more, Rong Heting had already guessed eighty to ninety percent of the points.
"Since you're an opponent who's pretending to be mysterious, I think it's better to investigate it personally."
"Representative Ling is so cautious." Rong Heting was like a wild beast of the hunting field, the smile on his face was filled with anticipation, "Then I have to have a good meeting with this prince."
"However, I heard that the prince brought his fiancée to attend the banquet."
"Heting!"
Before Ling Ao could finish his sentence, a coquettish female voice called out to him. Before he even arrived, the unique fragrance from his body floated over.
Jiang Wenqian arrived in a French evening dress. Her slender figure made her stand erect in the crowd. The evening dress matched her slightly voluptuous figure. The moment she appeared, she attracted the attention of many men in the hall.
"Miss Jiang, we haven't seen each other for a long time. She's even more beautiful." Ling Ao saw that she had arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye and was the first to greet him.
"Representative Ling, don't make fun of me."
Jiang Wenqian stopped and bowed to Ling Ao, "A few days ago, my father was supported by Representative Ling. Wenqian has been looking for a chance to thank Senator Ling. You have to give Wenqian that chance. "
Rong Heting looked at the two of them and did not say anything.
Jiang Wenqian's father was a high-profile general in the military in recent years, and Ling Ao had more opportunities to interact with him. Jiang Wenqian was also Rong Heting, whom he met at the banquet hosted by Wu's family a few years ago.
Jiang Wenqian, who was born in the Rong Horse Clan, may have been charming, but her voice still made men unable to extricate themselves from her softness. However, her actions still carried a bit of heroic spirit and decisiveness.
"Heting, I've got you here." After a few simple pleasantries with Ling Ao, Jiang Wenqian could finally focus all her attention on Rong Heting.
"I knew you would come back early. I thought you would come home." Ye Zichen spoke with a coquettish tone, while his delicate hands subconsciously put on Rong Heting's arm.
"Young Master Ling helped father on the topic of army reform in the council a while ago. I want to thank him first." Jiang Wenqian purposely explained to Rong Heting, afraid that this emperor of the Empire of Rong would lose his temper due to being ignored.
"This is your family business."
Jiang Wenqian felt a little awkward, but she noticed that Rong Heting did not shake off her hand.
She was secretly delighted, and held her head high as if she were declaring sovereignty.
As long as Rong Heting did not completely reject her, she still had a chance to take his heart …
At that moment, the crowd around the two began to move.
Before Jiang Wenqian could react to what was about to happen, Rong Heting, who had been standing beside her, shook off her hand and stood beside Ling Ao.
Immediately after, the host's sonorous voice rang out, "Let's welcome Prince Paiga and his fiancee from Sofia Country."
Rong Heting and Ling Ao stood at the end of the road and watched a familiar figure appear in front of them.
Ling Ao started to frown in disbelief. When the two people approached him, he couldn't hide his astonishment and disbelief.
Rong Heting's reaction was more intense than his. If it wasn't for his good self-control, Ling Ao felt that he could have rushed over. But his clenched hands, his tight lips, betrayed his anger.
He could no longer hear Ling Ao's courteous greetings with the two of them. His eyes were only filled with respect towards the person standing in front of him who revealed a faint smile as if nothing had happened.
"Long time no see, Young Master Rong."
Ye Feng stretched out his hand to greet Rong Heting. Wearing the special uniform used by the Sofia Country Imperial Family, it wrapped around his originally handsome appearance, giving off a noble aura.
"Long time no see. I never thought that we would meet again in this way." Rong Heting retracted his gaze and stretched out his hand together with Ye Feng's.
Countless people stared at the two holding hands. However, Rong Heting's gaze was fixated on the fiancee holding Ye Feng's arm.
"This is my fiancee, Mu Qianqian."
Ye Feng detected Rong Heting's gaze and felt a little nervous. However, his tone was still gentle and refined as he introduced, "Qianqian, this is the famous and elite leader of the business world in Dragon Country, Mr. Rong Heting."
"The AIDS research team that you participated in this time, is one of the projects that Mr Rong is in charge of under Ronghao International Enterprise."
"Mr Rong, it's our first time meeting each other. Nice to meet you." Qianqian held Ye Feng's arm with one hand and nodded at him with a smile.
"I am very honored to be part of your research team on AIDS."
Qianqian said with a smile. However, her eyes naturally turned to Ye Feng. "Being able to help an AIDS child has always been Brother Feng's and my wish. Who would have thought that it would be realized here."
"Miss Mu, if you are interested, I can spare some time to discuss in detail with Miss Mu about our company's other disease projects." Rong Heting squinted his eyes and revealed a standard business smile as he looked at Mu Qianqian.
"As far as I know, Miss Mu is a medical expert with superb medical skills and a benevolent heart. I believe that the cooperation between us will only grow more and more."
Qianqian looked at the man exuding a cold aura and couldn't help but clench Ye Feng's sleeve.
This person was so terrifying! It was as if he wanted to eat her.
If it wasn't for Brother Feng, who could be held by her side, she probably would have run away already.
It was all Brother Feng's fault. She clearly didn't want to attend any dinner. She just heard that there was a lot of delicious food to eat here.
"Brother Feng …" Qianqian maintained her proper smile as she called out.
After hearing her call, the smile on Rong Heting's face became much wider.
Mu Qianqian shuddered unconsciously as she looked at Ye Feng, hoping to leave this place as soon as possible.
"As Mr Rongji has said, I have come here on behalf of Sofia Country. I also hope that the cooperation between Dragon Country can continue to grow."
Ye Feng patted the back of Qianqian's hand soothingly, "Let's go, Qianqian."
Watching Ye Feng and Mu Qianqian walk towards the venue together, Jiang Wenqian, who had already noticed Rong Heting's strange reaction, felt a sense of crisis for the first time.
Mu Qianqian, what is her relationship with Heting?
The arrival of Prince Pekka of Sofia Country led to the opening of this charity dinner.
Within the venue, the carefully prepared food was being served one after another. The symphony orchestra played a graceful tune, and the elites from all walks of life in Dragon Country were gathered together to socialize as they needed to survive.
Mu Qianqian followed closely behind Ye Feng. Rather than saying that she was holding Ye Feng's arm, it would be better to say that she was tightly grabbing Ye Feng's sleeve, leaving quite a few cat paw prints on the prince's uniform.
This was her first external activity since becoming Ye Feng's fiancee.
When Ye Feng explained it to her, she shook her head like a rattle. Later on, Ye Feng comforted her and promised her for a long time before she finally agreed.
"Qianqian, this is Dean Cheng of the National Center for Disease Control and Prevention of the Dragon Country …"
"Qianqian, this is Department Head Xia from the Ministry of Dragon Country and Health …"
Qianqian, who was following beside Ye Feng, maintained a coincidental smile as she nodded to the important members of the government who were always introduced to her.
