Chapter 87 - A Scandalous party

The car reached the venue without a hitch.

Zou Yue glanced at the grand mansion with a deep scowl. 'You bloody snake.. I'm coming for you....'

Hary got out first and opened the door for him.

Zou Yue took his outstretched hands and walked out with grace.

"how did you hide that weapon so well.." he whispered softly into his ears.

Zou Yue glanced up with his brows raised. "Forget what you saw in that car. Forget everything I said. I might do something very bad tonight. I don't want you to get implicated."

"I will get implicated. I already know too much," he mumbled, gulping loudly.

Zou Yue just shook his head. 'This kid... tsk, how will he survive in the zombie apocalypse if he is simply just scared of an arrow?'

"Welcome miss and mister..." the servant held out his hand, waiting for the invite.

Zou Yue handed it to him. "Miss Tian Ai and mister Hary,"

"Oh welcome miss Tian Ai, and mister Hary," he gestured for them to go on inside.

"Wait a bit," Hary suddenly whispered.

Zou Yue paused with a frown. 'What now...'

The young man suddenly went to his back and helped him remove his white, fluffy coat. "There.. I don't want my darling to get overheated in here.." he smirked.

"Yes....." Yue handed him the coat with a professional smile. 'He is putting on a show. This kid might not be bad after all,'

As they walked in, the entire crowd glanced at them. Especially at Zou Yue.

Some eyes were inquisitive, and some eyes widened in shock.

Zou Yue smirked widely. 'Ah, the real party is about to begin,'

*****

Murong Shao froze. 'It's her. She is here! Shit...' he glanced at his grandpa, who was gritting his teeth with a controlled look on his face.

Since it was his birthday, most of the family was invited. Almost all of them recognised the young lady's face, because it was similar to his aunt Nui.

They started to murmur amongst themselves.

'I have to get her out of here.'

He started to push through the crowd to get to her.

Surprisingly, the young girl was walking directly towards him. Anyone in her way parted like a dead sea did for mosses.

'no no.. this is bad..it's dangerous for you..' he gestured for her to leave with his eyes.

But the young girl stopped right in front of him with a small smile. "I presume you are my cousin."

Shao froze. He could hear the audible gasps all around him.

"We need to talk." he held her hand, but the girl stood firmly in her position.

"The one I need to talk to is not you. But with him," she glanced at Murong yang with a playful smirk. "Isn't that right, my dear darling grandfather?"

Reporters started to click photos after photos with a wide smirk on their face. Till we know they had not been able to find any dirt on this prestigious family, but all of a sudden and a new granddaughter came into light surprising them all.

Zou Yue walked casually over to Murong yang and stood in front of him with his hands folded over. "'we have a lot to talk about grandfather~"

"Yes, we do...." he glared at her visibly but after noticing the camera flashes, his lips rose in a fake smile. "Welcome home my dear granddaughter."

His strong hands pushed Zou Yue to the side a little and faced the cameras with the same trade mark fake smile. "Today is a special day. Not only is it my cherished grandson's birthday, but it is also the day I found my granddaughter. Everyone welcome Tian Ai,"

The Murong family confusedly clapped at his announcement.

Zou Yue gritted his teeth. 'This shameless man. Fuck him.. fuck this family.. I might as well kill him right her for all the bad things he had done...'

But he needed information about Tian Ai. He was grasping at straws at this point, but he just wanted to find her.

Murong Shao, on the other hand, was very much stressed. He swiftly walked close to his grandfather in case he might hurt his newly found cousin.

But before he could reach her, the young man that came with his cousin walked up front.

"Sorry, sorry, my darling does not like to be in the spotlight," he hugged Yue close to his chest, showing his broad back to the camera. He swiftly held Yue's hand, that was going into the slit of his skirt to the crossbow. "Not now... wait when it's convenient," he whispered softly

Yue clenched the collars of his suit tightly. He nodded slightly.

Hary let go and smirked widely at the older man. "Sir it's an honour to meet you finally. But Tian didn't tell me that you guys knew each other before. She said that she found her family just tonight," he said, shaking his outstretched hand.

The press murmured amongst themselves.

Murong yang's eyebrows frowned deeply, revelling huge wrinkles in the middle. "Young man, you joke too much. I have already met my granddaughter beforehand. Otherwise, why would I make that announcement?"

"Oh, is that so....Tian it looks like you met with him without my knowledge how mean." He hugged Yue tightly, holding his hand that was reaching for his weapon once again. "Mister Murong Yang.. I am very great full that you accepted my darling into your family."

Murong yang nodded slightly. He glanced at Yue intently. "We have been separated for a long time. I would like to catch up with her a little. Why don't you guys have something to eat," he said to the press that was looking at him with interest.

"Separated? gasp, why is that, mister? Didn't you know your granddaughter beforehand?" Hary mumbled, glancing at him innocently.

The camera men stopped waiting for some juicy gossip.

Murong yang gritted his teeth. "It's... my daughter.. she took Tian away from us... she separated us for a long time because of her selfishness." He lowered his head and acted like he was wiping his tears.

Yue lunged at him, but Hary instantly hugged him close. "Oh I see..my poor darling was separated from her family for all those years because if that."

"But correct me if I'm wrong, mister Murong, wasn't it you that opposed to her marrying a lower class man. Isn't that why my darling's mum left the house? Isn't it because of your prejudice? Isn't it because of your high class mentality? oh I think I might have over spoke."
