The Chosen System: Counterattack with Husband

An hour and a half later, somewhere in the imperial capital, inside the main residence of the Ye family.

Ye Wen calmly glanced at his son who walked into the tea room dejectedly, then glanced at his empty back, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"Dad, I didn't invite anyone."

Ye Yingqi sat down in front of Ye Wen. He didn't dare to look up at his father's face out of guilt. He kept staring at the teacup in front of him while he was talking, as if there was something strange in it and didn't move his eyes away at all.

"Well, I expected that you wouldn't be able to invite him. It's not surprising."

Ye Wen filled the cup in front of his son with tea, without showing any surprise at all.

"Uh-huh?"

Ye Yingqi was about to agree guiltily, but after half a second, he suddenly realized what Ye Wen had just said. He looked up at his father in astonishment, and the last syllable of his sentence rose, turning it into a question.

"You, you know I can't invite anyone?"

Ye Yingqi's eyes widened slightly, and he stared at his father opposite him with surprise, who looked calm and collected. The doubts in his heart almost overflowed.

"Yingqi, do you still want to ask me why I asked you to invite Miss Xu even though I knew you couldn't?"

His son's thoughts were so easy to guess that Ye Wen simply asked him out on his behalf.

"Yes, why do you want me to go there again?"

Doubts lingered in Ye Yingqi's mind. He couldn't understand why his father sent him to invite Xu Yiyu since he knew that he would fail.

"You are still too young, Yingqi."

Ye Wen finished the cup of tea in his hand before he solved Ye Yingqi's doubts.

"Whether Miss Xu comes or not, I won't be surprised."

Ye Yingqi also took a sip of the tea in front of him, his face filled with the words "I'd like to hear more details".

"Her group is still in its infancy, so it's not an exaggeration to say that she is in urgent need of support and connections. So it's normal for her to come here and build a solid relationship with our Ye family."

Ye Wen paused before saying the second half of his sentence.

"But if she is someone who is so eager to cling to the powerful, then there is no need for us to make friends with her."

A look of sudden enlightenment appeared on Ye Yingqi's face, and he nodded repeatedly in agreement.

"However, judging from her behavior in the capital of Hui Province during this period, she is very confident in her financial strength and personal ability, and she is not the kind of person who likes to cling to powerful people. So her decision not to come to our family today is consistent with her past behavior."

Ye Wen thought about the chairman of Tianyu Group, whose true face he had never seen, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

"So, if she doesn't come, it can prove that she is indeed worthy of our Ye family to make friends with her?"

Ye Yingqi had been taught by his father for many years, so he could naturally draw inferences from his father's words and immediately understood the profound meaning of Ye Wen's words.

Ye Wen nodded, confirming his son's statement.

"What about the dinner? Didn't you prepare it for nothing?"

As soon as Ye Yingqi said this, Ye Wen gave him a look of disappointment, which choked him and made him shut up.

"You just came in through the front door. Didn't you pass by the dining room?"

Ye Wen sighed lightly and shook his head, feeling helpless about his son's occasional absence from state.

"You mean, you didn't prepare this dinner at all?!"

What his father said was right, Ye Yingqi was indeed still too young.

I thought I had been with my father for so many years that I could accurately understand the meaning of his words, but I didn't expect that I would fail again today.

"You should learn more! Your level is much lower than that of Miss Xu."

Ye Wen sighed and said this, then he stood up with the help of the tea table and walked slowly out of the teahouse, ignoring his son and not even turning his head.

Ye Yingqi, who was left behind for the second time today, looked at his father's back with a hurt expression and suddenly felt like crying.

He is so sad and depressed, who understands him?

The flowers bloom in pairs, and the branches are intertwined.

On the other side, Xu Yiyu, who had left Ye Yingqi in the lobby of Yihao Hotel, sat in front of the open wardrobe again, looking at the dresses filled to the brim inside and feeling troubled.

But this time, Lu Sanshi also joined her team of people suffering from indecisiveness.

"Bringing too many clothes doesn't seem like a good thing..."

Xu Yiyu rubbed his face and said in a muffled voice.

"It was so difficult to choose my outfit. It was so difficult..."

"Seconded."

Lu Sanshi on the side agreed with this and buried his head in his hands, his voice also sounding muffled.

The auction was about to open, so they naturally had to dress formally. After all, they couldn't lose face when appearing in front of the four major families for the first time, so no matter how dazzling or high-profile they were, it was not too much.

But Xu Yiyu really had no idea how dazzling it would be.

Even though she acted like a big shot in front of Ye Yingqi, it was because he was a junior of the Ye family and she was not afraid of him.

But the person she is going to meet tomorrow is the actual person in charge of the four major families. How can she not be panicked?

Tianlin, who had been standing behind the two hosts for a long time, glanced at the two people who were making the same emo expressions, and suddenly cleared his throat without warning.

Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi raised their heads almost at the same time and looked back at Tianlin, who had almost no presence in the past half hour, with almost the same expressions.

Tianlin, who had a high sense of humor, almost laughed out loud when he saw the host's sad yet inexplicably funny expression. He quickly coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment, and then spoke with a serious face.

"Um, Miss Yiyu, and Mr. Sanshi."

Tianlin smiled and gave his suggestion.

"If you two don't mind... do you want me to help you choose what to wear tomorrow?"

The two emo monsters both stood there in a daze. After a few seconds, they stared at each other in a daze before reacting to Tianlin's words.

"You get to choose?"

The two emo guys asked in unison, their tone full of disbelief.

"Yes, of course, provided that... you two don't mind."

Tianlin placed one hand on his chest and bowed slightly with perfect etiquette.

"I have studied aesthetics for several years in the academy on the planet where I was born. During the graduation examination, I received an excellent grade in this course. You two can trust my aesthetic level."

Tianlin clearly spoke in a humble tone, but Xu Yiyu heard pride and arrogance in his words.

"It's not impossible... You can choose, Tianlin. I'm already overwhelmed by the choices."

Xu Yiyu didn't doubt Tianlin's aesthetic taste, but she was a little surprised that this assistant, who usually did more than she said, suddenly took the initiative to make this suggestion.

"Then I would rather obey your orders than be respectful."

Tianlin didn't waste even a second. He scanned the open wardrobe several times. After considering the occasions that the two hosts would attend tomorrow, he immediately confirmed his target.

He walked quickly to the wardrobe, took out two suits, then walked to the cabinet where jewelry was stored, opened it and took out a few items.

Xu Yiyu and Lu Sanshi stared in amazement at the clothes and accessories that Tianlin took out of the cabinet, feeling quite astonished.

Tianlin’s vision——

Indeed, quite good.
