Wen Ya had obviously seen Mu Chenyan, but she was busy greeting the new guests. She could only quietly wave at her with an amiable smile on her face.
Mu Chenyan waved her hand in return. "Sister-in-law, please go ahead. I'll talk to you later."
It was very important for the Yuan Family to respect their elders.
Although Yuan Xuan was the son of the eldest wife, he was younger than Yuan Zhe and Yuan Zhuan because he was the son of Yuan Tangbai. Hence, he was the Third Young Master.
Hence, Yuan Zhe would always walk in front when it came to greeting and greeting guests.
As the eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Yuan Family, Wen Ya's elegance and generosity were indeed appropriate.
However, many of the guests here were influential figures in the business world. There were also outstanding young people in the military who came for Yuan Xuan.
As Yuan Xuan's wife, Mu Chenyan should be more active.
However, she had a low sense of identity as Mrs. Yuan. Moreover, her purpose today was to meet Old Mistress Yuan. Hence, Mu Chenyan automatically chose to keep a low profile.
She took a glass of champagne and hid to the side. She quietly watched the people in the hall moving back and forth as they toasted each other.
She was not unfamiliar with this kind of occasion. The Mu Family was once famous in Luo Hai. Banquets were indispensable for the interaction between the upper class.
Therefore, to Mu Chenyan, all of this was naturally nothing new.
Her expression was calm as she quietly sat there like an orchid in a deep valley …
Socialites also had their own circles. Beautiful women gathered in twos and threes and whispered to each other. Mu Chenyan could not enter any of the circles.
She had been away for too long.
But the good thing was that the current her was enjoying loneliness!
When she was in prison, she actually liked being locked up in a small dark room.
She was the only one there. She did not need to talk to others or get beaten up …
Through the faint light from the window, she enjoyed the unique loneliness of more than 20 years from dawn to dusk, from sunset to moonrise.
…
Mu Chenyan did not see Yuan Xuan. He was probably talking to Old Mistress at the back.
At this moment, there was a small commotion in the crowd. Mu Chenyan looked up and saw a middle-aged man surrounded by a few people.
Yuan Tangbai was no longer around. Moreover, the third son, Yuan Tangshuo, was an academic expert who was not interested in military politics. It was understandable that the Yuan Family's political position was inherited by Yuan Tangzhong.
Yuan Tang was a middle-aged man in his fifties, but he was in high spirits. His scholarly aura made him look nothing like a big shot in the military or political field.
Perhaps those with high status and power would rein in their sharp and farsighted edge.
Even celebrities were beginning to appear on reality shows, revealing their private lives, shaking off the burden of idols, and exposing embarrassing incidents. It seemed that being kind and approachable was now the main trend!
Yuan Tangzhong conversed with the people in the venue for a while before he went to the VIP lounge at the back.
The small commotion in the hall calmed down again.
A few young girls gathered together and started discussing in low voices. Even though their voices were very low, people who loved to gossip could never suppress their excitement. Mu Chenyan, who was at the side, could still hear them clearly.
"Have you heard that the two influential elders of the Yuan Family, the uncle Yuan Tangzhong and the nephew Yuan Xuan, actually don't get along with each other!" said a woman.
"This is no longer a secret. It looks calm on the surface, but it's actually serious on the inside!" Another person chimed in.
"Come to think of it, the empire that Yuan Xuan's father fought for was taken by his uncle before he could claim it. If it wasn't for Yuan Xuan's ability to find another way to start his own business, I don't know how hard his life would be now!"
"Why did I hear that Yuan Xuan himself gave up on his father's achievements? Even so, the core of the Yuan Family's power is still in Yuan Xuan's hands! "
"My father said that the Yuan Family's Old Mistress loves Yuan Xuan very much. The Old Mistress listens to everything Yuan Xuan says, and the Yuan Family's military and political background all serve him! How could he not have these connections to be able to take over such a big business like the national energy development? "
