Jennie did not know that Ji-won's hatred towards her had reached another. At this moment, she was still chatting with Su Anran when a commotion resounded throughout the banquet hall.
As if there was a royal member who had just arrived, everyone seemed to have stopped doing whatever they were doing. With their eyes stuck to the front entrance of the banquet hall, lips parted in surprise and disbelief, and hearts beating quickly. Everyone watched as the tall, handsome man with a regal aura comparable to a king walking towards his throne stood in front of them.
Lisa strode in.
He was wearing a special attire, a design between a suit and a military uniform, which perfectly outlined his broad shoulders and strong waist. The gold metal chain pinned on the tip of the collar of his shirt flickered faintly in the light, and the long black coat draped over his shoulders strongly contrasted with his white outfit.
Overall, he just looked like a male god who descended on planet Earth to recklessly murder everyone with just his looks.
"My God... How handsome."
One did not know who said this in a gasp, but anyone who heard it couldn't refute it.
They never saw a man who could be more gorgeous than anyone they'd laid their eyes on. It was like seeing an angel descending from the heavens and condescendingly looking down on humans, but the humans couldn't resist kneeling before his supernatural presence.
Lisa did not know what his good looks were currently doing to the people inside the banquet and was followed by Su Tian and other members of the Su family.
When he arrived earlier, only a few guests were standing outside the red-carpeted entrance, and the Su family was growing uneasy and reluctant to wait any longer. It had been an hour since they had been waiting for the VVIP guest to arrive, yet, there were no sights of him.
Su Tian was starting to doubt Jennie's words and thought that maybe Lisa had decided not to go to the party after all.
However, their grievances and sufferings didn't amount to the relief and joy they felt when they saw an antique black car treated as a collector's treasured car stopped in front of the hotel.
One by one, a pair of long, slender legs stepped down, and a man emerged from the car. The moment the man appeared, the Su family's years of stress and worries disappeared; it was almost as if they saw the Buddha's golden light shining behind his back.
Su Tian followed very close with Lisa.
Lisa swept his eyes on the crowd inside the banquet, and his dark eyes flashed unfathomably.
He asked, "The party already started?"
Su Tian thought that the man was dissatisfied that the party started before he even arrived and grew restless. He wiped the sweat that dripped on his cheek and replied, "No, the party! We were only letting the guests get in touch with everybody else before starting it."
As he finished saying this, he gestured with his eyes towards another butler. The butler was quite clever and instantly understood what Master Su wanted him to do. He separated from the group and went towards the emcee of the party and told him to announce the start of the event.
The emcee glanced at the butler very strangely since he had already done that an hour ago. However, since he was being paid by the Su family tonight, he still did what the butler told him to do.
"It's our honor to have Mr Manoban attend the party our Su family hosted this year. We never expected that you would arrive, and thus, forgive us if there was anything that was not up to your taste." Su Tian grabbed two flutes of champagne from a server and handed one of them to him.
Lisa took it in his hand but didn't take a sip from it. "Mr Su doesn't have to be so formal with me. The Manoban family isn't here right now. I came here to watch my own person tonight."
Su Tian heard his words and was slightly surprised. Of course, Lisa appeared to be quite smitten last time at the Old Patriarch Song's party. Tonight, several celebrities with good-looking faces and wealthy young masters came to get in touch with each other. Lisa must have come here tonight to watch over Jennie and make sure that she wouldn't fall into another man's hands.
Upon having this conjecture, Su Tian was slightly embarrassed. He initially still had some thoughts of introducing his daughter to this man. Yet, Lisa told him straight that he had come here for one reason only — Jennie.
Though Su Tian understood that Lisa was a possessive man who didn't want others touching what he deemed as his and reluctantly let go of his other plans, other people were too blinded by the magnificence of the important guest's presence aura, they couldn't help but harboring other thoughts about him.
Since returning to her mother's side, Su An, who had been complaining about Jennie and Su Anran, was now gaping openly at the man standing next to her father.
This man was the Young Master Manoban that everyone talked about. The man that her mother picked for her to consider marrying. Previously, she didn't think that Lisa was outstanding or perfect at all, just like what everybody was telling everyone. She assumed that they were only glossing over his appearance since he had a strong background.
But who could have thought that no one had lied to her?
"Mother... I want him." (in your Dreams)
Su An whispered to her mother, her eyes glued towards the man standing before her as if she was enchanted by him. Right now, she felt like her soul was being sucked away, and she didn't even want it to be returned. She wanted him to take it away and keep it in his hands.
