o return to City A.This time when he came to headquarters, he had already applied to be transferred back to the Asia-Pacific region.Once upon a time, he was determined to accumulate more capital, hopi...New Year's Eve.

Like in years past, A City is decorated with festive lights, but there's not the same excitement as before.

Because three major groups had incidents, most of the migrant population went home early for the Chinese New Year, and city A became an empty city ahead of schedule.

The road, which was originally jam-packed and congested, is now deserted, with only a few cars passing by occasionally.

Even so, strict traffic control was still implemented in City A.

Luxury cars from all over the world stream into the Jingyang Hotel, located across from the central square in City A.

The guests who came by car were even more elegant in their attire and possessed a remarkable aura.

So luxurious that even the trash cans are top-brand, the hotel has opened its seventh-floor reception hall for guests tonight, a space usually closed to the public.

Classical music flowed softly, the warm wind carrying the scent of alcohol, intoxicating everyone without needing to drink.

Shen Zhaolin was walking with Gu Qingcheng, greeting guests at the venue with a polite and elegant smile.

The venue looked peaceful and harmonious.

Shen Ruifeng, who had rushed back especially, accompanied Su He to rest in the lounge upstairs.

Shen Xingfan even dispatched all the bodyguards from his security companies across the country, stationing them at various locations within the hotel, both overtly and covertly.

Even Shen Yunchen, who rarely puts aside his research work, personally monitored the hotel surveillance and was prepared to deal with any emergencies.

He glanced at the time. Although not all the invited guests had arrived, Shen Zhaolin still called Su He downstairs and took the stage to give a speech.

Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed relatives and friends, thank you all for joining us at this special occasion of welcoming the new year and celebrating the reunion dinner for my daughter, Shen Suhe.

Shen Zhaolin looked up and watched his wife and daughter walk down the stairs gracefully. He smiled, extending his right hand with a gentlemanly air.

Following his gaze, amidst the awestruck eyes of the guests, Gu Qingcheng led the meticulously dressed Su He downstairs.

Among the guests, some were seeing Su He for the second time.

This time's Su He, compared to her last appearance, exudes more confidence and a touch of arrogance.

If she were a rosebud before, now she is like one that has been through wind and rain, fully blossomed, beautiful to the point of being mesmerizing.

Shen Zhaolin looked around, his powerful voice through the microphone reaching every corner: "My daughter was abducted when she was young. As a father, I was heartbroken. To find her, I brought my family to City A and single-handedly founded Yihe Group. Now, she is finally back."

"These years, I've been so focused on making amends that I've forgotten that I am not just a father, but also a son."

“I now formally announce that I am handing over the Yihe Group to my youngest daughter, Shen Suhe. My wife and I will return to Di Jing to do what we should have done many years ago. I hope everyone will continue to support the Yihe Group and my daughter!”

Although there had been rumors circulating beforehand, when Shen Zhaolin personally announced it, the guests were still taken aback.

For almost ten seconds, the air was filled with a suffocating silence.

Then, like a stone thrown into still water, it created ripples that spread outward, widening and growing larger with each passing moment.

There was a lot of discussion going on, and even though they tried to speak softly, it was still very clear.

"Such a large Yi He Group, to truly hand it over to a girl in her early twenties"

"Chairman Shen, are you letting your daughter practice running the group Three of the six major groups are already almost there. Is Chairman Shen giving up"

"

“Does Mr. Shen mean he wants to go back to the Shen family in Di Jing”

" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

……

At this very moment, a commotion of considerable size suddenly erupted at the hotel entrance.

More than twenty men in black, dressed in sharp suits, walked in with an imposing air. Each man carried a beautifully decorated rectangular wooden box in his hand and their faces were expressionless.

The moment they appeared, Shen Xingfan's people immediately went on high alert, cautiously approaching them from different directions, warily watching their every move.

The music continued, but the temperature in the venue seemed to drop suddenly, creating an inexplicable sense of oppression.

Even some timid female guests grumbled regretfully that they shouldn't have come to the festivities on New Year's Eve.

Instead of winning favor, he became like a fish caught in the fire when the city burned.

Shen Zhaolin and Gu Qingcheng held Su He's hand, the three of them looked at each other, then raised their heads with chests out, ready to face whatever was coming.

To everyone's surprise, the men in black did not attack anyone.

They walked straight to Su He's presence, each one opening the wooden box in their hands.

Different gift boxes held a variety of treasures: jewelry antiques, paintings and calligraphy, and even precious medicinal herbs like ginseng that was over a thousand years old.

Although some items may not have a visible age, one can simply tell by feeling them that they are of great value.

However, who would send a gift with the air of picking a fight

All the guests breathed a collective sigh of relief and couldn't help but sneak peeks at the gifts to see what they were.

Shen Zhaolin looked at the gift presented by the man in black. Other guests couldn't tell that these things couldn't be bought with money, but he recognized them at a glance.

If it weren't for a family's deep heritage and resources, who could casually give gifts worth at least 30 million each

His eyes flickered, Shen Zhaolin stared at them and asked, "Who sent you here"

The man in black at the front waved his hand, motioning for his men to place the gift on the table beside the podium. He said with composure, “On behalf of Lord Gu’s family, I present Miss Rongqing back home.”

Mind your own business

Gu Qingcheng was stunned for a moment. Back then, in order to leave with Shen Zhaolin, she had stubbornly argued with her family.

Unexpectedly, Gu's family sent a gift for acknowledging kinship at this time.

Gu Qingcheng's eyes couldn't help but well up.

Su He quietly squeezed her hand and smiled reassuringly at her.

Isn't that nice

She sent a message that she wanted to go back, and the steps of Gu's house immediately extended towards her.

The youngest daughter, pampered by her family, even if she ran away from home on a whim, no parent would really abandon their child.

I originally thought the Shen family would send someone over, but I didn't expect the Gu family to send someone first.

Shen's granddaughter, Gu's adopted granddaughter.

This is more than just being born with a silver spoon; it's like being born with an emerald ladle!

As if by fate, at this very moment, a group of young girls in purple cheongsams, slender and graceful, entered carrying various sandalwood boxes.

"Lu Family's Third Young Master, Congratulations to Miss Shen on her return!"

As the jewelry box was opened, a stunning array of jewels appeared before everyone. They glittered and shone in the light, mesmerizing all the female guests.

There is no woman who would not be moved by jewelry, especially such exquisite and magnificent pieces.

"My God, isn't that blue diamond necklace the Heart of the Ocean worth five hundred million"

"That diamond tiara over there looks kinda familiar, doesn't it I think it was a coming-of-age gift for the princess of the T royal family"

"That bracelet is so exquisitely made, it looks like it's from M brand, but I've never seen it before. Is it a new release"

The female guests whispered to each other, their voices filled with awe and envy.

But the male guests present, upon hearing the name "Lu Family Third Young Master," all drew in a cold breath.

Shen Zhaolin and Gu Qingcheng's faces became even more unsightly.

Su He was slightly taken aback, and suddenly remembered vaguely seeing it in the news before, that the Shen family and the Lu family were engaged.

As the only girl in her generation of the Shen family, she was also the betrothed to the Lu family.She lost herself in love, which is why Huo Chenxi never loved her.Seeing Su He's self-deprecating expression, the police pursued, "Are these photos real"Su He didn't offer any explanation: "Yes."The p...
