Chapter: 1718
Outside, two middle-aged men were warmly welcoming guests. Dong Ruolin approached them and hurriedly introduced, "Dad, uncle, let me introduce you to this person. This is my friend from Jinling, Leaf Chen."
The two middle-aged men glanced at Leaf Chen, with Dong Ruolin's uncle opening his mouth and saying, "Hasn't there been a family by the surname of Ye in Jinling?"
Dong Ruolin quickly explained, "Leaf Chen isn't someone from any family. He's my university classmate."
In the past, Leaf Chen was arranged by Old Master Xiao to study at Jinling University for a year, when he not only attended school with Xiao Chuoren but also with Dong Ruolin.
At this time, Dong Ruolin didn't mention that Leaf Chen is her husband because she wanted to leave room for herself in case there's an opportunity to develop a relationship in the future. After returning home, family members would find out that he's Xiao Chuoren's husband, which would be too embarrassing.
Hearing that he was Dong Ruolin's university classmate, her uncle looked down on him slightly and said, "Since you're classmates, let's arrange for him to sit down."
Dong Ruolin's father whispered quietly at this time, "Ruolin, I just heard your brother say that the family young master will be coming later. You need to seize this opportunity and get to know them well."
Dong Ruolin furrowed her brows and said, "What's there to recognize? The two sons of the Guo family are worthless, with a bad reputation spread far and wide!"
"Are you kidding?" Dong Ruolin's father scolded in a stern tone, "The Guo family is actually ranked third in Yanjing, with very strong family power. And don't forget that the Guo family young men are not enthusiastic, with only two sons, so this opportunity has an even greater value."
A family with many sons, no matter how strong their abilities are, will eventually scatter and divide their assets.
Some families may boast of having a trillion dollars, but if they have too many descendants, the inheritance might be split into tiny pieces, making it difficult to find someone worth over a billion dollars. Therefore, such a family's male offspring would naturally not amount to much.
The patriarch of the He family had only two sons, Wei Liang and Wei Guang, each with shares in their respective companies, and each person's net worth was over a billion dollars.
Dong Ruolin's father, Dong Jianghe, had always wanted her to marry into a top-tier wealthy second-generation descendant to help revitalize the Dong family's fortunes.
Previously, he and the Dong family elder had heard that the Ye family in Jinling had acquired an imperial group and handed it over to one of their descendants. He thought that the Ye family was grooming one of their younger generations for the task, so he immediately arranged for Dong Ruolin to go to the Imperial Group for a training period.
However, Dong Ruolin had been in Jinling for so long without even meeting the chairman of the Imperial Group, and her father gradually lost faith.
He even thought about not letting his daughter return to Jinling, wasting half a year without achieving anything, and instead rushing back to Yanjing to find a reliable descendant from a prestigious family.
Just then, her nephew arrived, excitedly saying that he had finally invited the He family's young master over. Her father felt this was an opportunity for his daughter.
But Dong Ruolin didn't care about the He family's young master in her heart. Even if it were a mysterious Ye family young master, she wasn't interested at this point. She had been thinking of Leaf Chen since he saved her life, and no other man could enter her sight.

She said calmly: "Dad, I'm not interested in the He family's young master at all. Let me not get to know him."
She looked at Leaf Chen and said: "Let's go in now!"
Her father scolded: "You're a child! How could you be so unaware of what's good for you? If you can get together with the He family young master, why bother going to Jinling at all?"
Dong Ruolin looked at Leaf Chen again, then stubbornly told her father: "I like Jinling! I'll definitely find my husband in Jinling in the future!" JrNovels.com
