Chapter 286: Chapter 286: Bring Her Back to Xiao Family (9)

Xiao Shulan and Xiao Shuju were definitely not happy, glaring at their talkative little sister with daggers in their eyes.

"What time is it?" Grandma Xiao asked.

"It’s twelve o’clock, Grandma."

Realizing it was so late, although the main guests hadn’t arrived yet, the Xiao Family’s hospitality was essential. Therefore, she hastily ordered the main course to be served.

As the guests were about to move back to the lawn for the outdoor buffet, suddenly, an announcement came from the main door: "The young master has arrived—"

Xiao Yebai had come?

All eyes swiftly gathered at the entrance.

The Xiao Family’s only son, a man undoubtedly born with a golden spoon in his mouth.

Under the blazing sun, bathed in a thousand strands of golden sunlight, a beautiful man in a white suit entered, holding a black, stylish cane just like those carried by men from the Western aristocracy, confidently striding forward in the spotlight.

His bold and spirited demeanor reminded people of Xiao Jianming from his days in the military. It seemed like father and son were cast from the same mold, far from the prodigal son rumored in society.

Reaching the entrance, Xiao Yebai, with his white-gloved hand, elegantly twirled the cane before handing it to an attendant.

The women inside the hall, captivated by his aristocratic demeanor and charisma, completely forgot the negative rumors about him. Their eyes, brimming with adoration, rounded with desire—each of them seemingly ready to rush forward and cling to his legs.

Lin Yishan merely noticed how the expressions of surrounding women changed, their eyes glued to Yebai like female wolves on the prowl. Yishan’s face darkened as she muttered to herself, "Tempter, tempter."

If not a tempter, then what?

He had swept away the souls of all the women the moment he appeared.

Zhu Jiayin, who grew up on the other side of the Atlantic in the United States and was used to seeing handsome men, couldn’t help but be startled and said in amazement to her mother, "Mom, don’t you think my uncle looks exceptionally dashing today?"

The eccentric Yebai had indeed never dressed so meticulously for a homecoming, nor orchestrated a grand entrance with a cane. What was this?

Xiao Shuzhu turned her head to look at Grandma Xiao, seated in the armchair. Could this youngster be aiming to curry favor on the occasion of the old lady’s eightieth birthday?

Grandma Xiao’s eyes, filled with love, proudly admired her grandson.

Look, her grandson was so handsome, the kind of man all women would like.

Ah, those rumors outside meant nothing. As soon as her grandson made an appearance, the gossip would collapse under its own weight.

To her, her grandson was clearly someone no woman in the whole world was worthy of.

Grandma Xiao was thinking proudly, perhaps she ought to find a princess from the Royal Family for her grandson.

Standing among a group of women, Su Yixia’s heart pounded furiously, never having throbbed this intensely before.

This man, wealthy and handsome to boot.

Heaven, where could one find such a perfect man? No matter what anyone said, upon seeing him in person, who could believe any slander?

Undoubtedly, the reaction of all the women at the event created immense pressure for the men present.

Wa Zicong couldn’t help but raise a questioning eyebrow to his fiancée, "You said your uncle doesn’t focus on proper affairs and is a wastrel?"

"Yes. Don’t be fooled by his flashy appearance—every penny comes from his dad," Lin Yishan stated as if it were the most natural fact.

Wa Zicong thought to himself that this prodigal son, dressed with such taste, was indeed exceptionally different from others.

Although it was his first time seeing Xiao Yebai, he couldn’t quite see him as just a playboy. Yet it seemed that the Xiao family, and everyone else, had already made up their minds about his character.
