Hearing Cecilia Gu say that, Mr. Yun and Mrs. Yun exchanged a delighted glance.
Cecilia Gu didn't realize that her words had taken on a completely different meaning in Mr. and Mrs. Yun's ears.
Cecilia Gu looked strikingly similar to Nora Yun.
Max Mo was Nora Yun's fiancé.
A gift given by two people together—doesn't that symbolize a present from a daughter and son-in-law?
Max Mo thought of this too. His blue eyes flickered, unable to hide the trace of joy in them.
Rona Muir twitched her lips. They were really overthinking things.
Cecilia Gu would never fall for Max Mo.
Even though Cecilia Gu was ignoring Charles Yin on the surface, deep down, she admired men like Charles the most...
Oh, right, what was Charles Yin doing now?
Rona Muir kept scrolling through Weibo, then saw that Charles Yin had reposted Cecilia Gu's post...
President Yin, why are you being so proactive? What's going on here?
And what about Sylvia Ran?
Aren't you going to rekindle things with your old flame?
Charles Yin reposted Cecilia Gu's Weibo. Surely she should understand his intentions by now, right?
As the CEO of Yin Enterprises, he personally reposted her Weibo—she should be over her anger by now, shouldn't she?
Ignoring the wedding guests, Charles Yin sat on a beach chair, fixated on his phone, ignoring everything else.
"A, didn't you say that when you repost a Weibo, the person gets a notification? Why hasn't Cecilia Gu responded yet?" Charles Yin poked at the screen, but nothing changed.
A nervously wiped the sweat from his brow and said, "Well... in theory, she should've noticed..."
Cecilia Gu reached out to touch the massive bookshelf, her face full of longing.
"Yes, President," A replied, still wiping cold sweat.
"Good, let's go to the Yun Family!" Charles Yin's lips curled into a wicked smile. He stretched his long legs and strode off.
A quickly followed, "President, are we going in light, or...?"
Charles Yin turned to A and asked, "Do women like to have face when they're out in public?"
A hesitated for a moment before replying, "Yes..."
"The grander, the better!" Charles Yin ordered, leaving no room for doubt.
Seeing Charles Yin approach, Sylvia Ran hurried over. "Charles, where did you go just now? We've all been waiting for you! You've already missed several rounds..."
"You guys go ahead and drink. I'm heading out for a bit!" Charles Yin didn't even glance at Sylvia Ran as he walked straight out.
Sylvia Ran's heart skipped a beat. Where was he going?
Was he going to find Cecilia Gu?
No way. She'd finally managed to put some distance between them. She absolutely couldn't let Charles Yin go looking for Cecilia Gu!
"Charles! It's the first day of the celebration. Isn't it bad for you to leave like this? Joe Qi finally agreed to get married!" Sylvia Ran said anxiously.
Charles Yin quickly glanced down at Sylvia Ran, his long, narrow eyes lifting slightly, a probing look flashing in his gaze. "Really? Did Joe Qi ask you to say that to me?"
"N-no..." Sylvia Ran's eyes avoided Charles Yin's searching gaze.
Charles Yin turned coldly. "Sylvia, don't cross the line between friends. You know my patience is limited!"
Leaving those words behind, Charles Yin ignored Sylvia Ran and walked away without another look.
A's eyes flashed with understanding. He nodded politely to Sylvia Ran, then quickly followed after Charles Yin.
Sylvia Ran, seeing she hadn't managed to stop Charles Yin from going after Cecilia Gu, stomped her foot in frustration and muttered to herself, "I refuse to lose to her! Just wait and see!"
After touring the Yun Family estate, Cecilia Gu couldn't help but praise, "No wonder everyone in Eastshire Province says the Yun Family is the cultural heart of the region. Now I finally understand what that means!"
Cecilia Gu reached out to touch the massive bookshelf in the Yun Family Library, her face full of longing.
After spending the whole morning touring the Heritage Garden, pharmacy room, Yun Family Herbal Estate, and the massive Yun Family Library, Cecilia Gu was left utterly speechless.
Especially the enormous Yun Family Library in front of her—it completely redefined what a library meant to her.
Back in school, she used to borrow books from the library all the time.
She always thought the school library’s collection was impressive enough.
But standing before this four-story building covering over ten thousand square meters, she realized just how limited her perspective had been!
All four floors were lined with all kinds of bookshelves.
Each category had its own staff to organize and maintain it, ensuring every book was clean and well-preserved.
What truly amazed her were the Yun Family’s many rare and out-of-print books.
Many of these books were considered collectibles in the outside market.
Yet here, they were carefully kept and preserved.
A deep sense of awe rose in Cecilia Gu’s heart—she didn’t even dare to measure the value of this vast collection in terms of money.
Mr. Yun introduced with great pride, "This is just one of the Yun Family’s libraries. The real, larger library is underground, and it’s not open to the public. All the books there are rare, out-of-print treasures left by our ancestors, protected by 24-hour infrared surveillance. This one is semi-open to family members; anyone with proper identification can enter."
Hearing that, Cecilia Gu admired and respected them even more.
She truly felt that visiting today was absolutely worth it.
Just as everyone was about to move on, someone outside rushed in, stumbling so badly they nearly fell.
Mr. Yun couldn’t help but scold, "What’s going on? Why are you so flustered?"
The person’s voice trembled with excitement, "M-M-Mr. Yin of Yin Enterprises is here... he’s right outside!"
Charles Yin is here?
Everyone present was stunned.
Cecilia Gu looked at Rona Muir in confusion, but Rona just shrugged, looking just as baffled.
Mr. Yun reacted quickly and immediately said, "President Yin, since you've graced us with your presence, we can't let our honored guest wait at the door. Go welcome him!"
Mrs. Yun glanced at Cecilia Gu, who shook her head at Mrs. Yun, indicating she had no idea Charles Yin would come.
Charles Yin had changed into a very formal outfit and arrived with a motorcade.
As for why there was a motorcade... it was because all those hoping to meet Charles Yin had followed along on their own!
Charles Yin told everyone directly that he was here to pick up his wife from the Yun Family and take her home.
As for whether he would meet with them, that depended on his wife's opinion.
So, the whole group ended up coming along.
Charles Yin waited outside the car. No one else dared stay in their vehicles.
So when Cecilia Gu came out with Mr. and Mrs. Yun, she was completely shocked by what she saw!
At the entrance was a dense crowd, all gathered around Charles Yin like stars around the moon.
Why did he bring so many people to the Yun Family?
Cecilia Gu was stunned.
Rona Muir was also taken aback.
Charles Yin was acting totally out of character.
This wasn't his usual style at all.
Max Mo, as a guest, had guessed Charles Yin's motive, but he didn't say a word.
He was a guest today, so naturally he couldn't outshine the host.
Mr. Yun stepped forward and said to Charles Yin, "We didn’t expect President Yin to honor us with your presence. Please forgive us for not welcoming you sooner."
But Charles Yin’s gaze didn’t fall on Mr. Yun—it went straight to Cecilia Gu.
In person, she was even more beautiful than in the photos.
