Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 5272

She dreamed of getting revenge on Ye Longting, but that guy was too powerful. 
“Play with his feelings, make him fall in love with you, and if you tell him to go east, he won’t dare to go west.” 
Long Ruoyu pouted, thinking that Ye Longting would never fall in love with her. As long as she was still the daughter of the Long family, Ye Longting would never love her; the two families were mortal enemies. 
And she couldn’t leave the Long family. Being the daughter of the Long family was her capital, always her pride. How could she possibly leave the Long family? 
Even though she had broken away from the Long family and the two families had been fighting for so many years, Ye Longting couldn’t be completely unaware of her. How could he possibly fall in love with her? 
That was just wishful thinking. 
Instead of wasting her time, she should have set her sights on other wealthy young men. The Long family wasn’t the only powerful family in H City; there were many others. 
It was just that the Long family used to be the most prestigious. Since her grandfather had harmed the head of the Long family and became the acting head, her status in H City had risen dramatically. 
But after her father took power, with Ye Longting as a formidable rival, her status in the city began to decline. If she didn’t hurry and find a satisfactory husband, what if that boy returned with the token and took over the Long family? 
Her status would plummet. If he sought revenge for her parents, she and her family might lose everything, go to jail, or even lose their lives. 
To ensure a comfortable life for the rest of her life, Long Ruoyu secretly wanted to find a good husband as soon as possible. 
However, she couldn’t ignore the task her grandfather and father had given her. 
During the process, everyone in the circle knew that she had pursued Ye Longting, which affected her later marriage into a wealthy family. 
“Dad, I understand. You go back first, leave two bodyguards for me. I’ll stay and go back after Ye Longting leaves.” 
Long Ruoyu thought that staying would also have its advantages; at least she would have time to chat with the other wealthy young men and build relationships. 
They all grew up in the same circle, so even if they weren’t close, they knew each other, making it easier to chat.”Okay.” 
Long Tuo instructed two bodyguards to stay and protect his daughter. 
Then, he got into his car. 
Soon, several cars drove away. 
Watching her father’s car disappear into the distance, Long Ruoyu took a few deep breaths, mentally cheering herself on, before returning to the banquet with the two bodyguards. 
She acted as if nothing had happened, chatting casually with everyone again, occasionally glancing at Ye Longting. 
Ye Longting seemed to be in a good mood tonight; he had been there for quite some time and showed no sign of leaving, chatting happily with the big bosses, accepting all their toasts. 
Wasn’t he supposed to be very guarded? 
When socializing, he usually wouldn’t drink more than three glasses, afraid of being tricked if he got drunk. 
He often said that drinking would lead to trouble, and if anyone tried to persuade him to drink more, he would use that phrase to shut them up. Why was he acting so unusually tonight? 
After observing for a moment, Long Ruoyu picked up a glass of wine and walked over. 
But she still couldn’t reach Ye Longting; she was stopped by Chu Jiu a few steps away. 
Sometimes, Long Ruoyu really wanted to skin Chu Jiu alive. 
He was so annoying. 
“Mr. Ye,” 
Long Ruoyu said in a sweet, coquettish voice.As Ye Longting looked at her, she raised her wine glass and said sweetly, “Mr. Ye, let me toast you. My father said something a bit harsh just now, which upset you. I apologize on his behalf.” 
“I’m sorry ,” 
Ye Longting said coldly. “Long Tuo upset me, but doesn’t he have the guts to apologize to my face? Pushing his own daughter forward shows a complete lack of responsibility.” 
“Why did the Long family choose Long Tuo as the acting head of the family? He’s far inferior to his father. If you ask me, the children that Old Master Long raised outside are much better than Long Tuo.” 
“Old Master Long should have let his children from outside return to shoulder the 
responsibilities. Long Tuo is just a legitimate son of the legal wife.” 
Long Tuo has several half-siblings. Although they also share the surname Long, everyone knows they are Old Master Long’s illegitimate children, but they haven’t truly returned to acknowledge their ancestry, nor do they work for the Long Group. 
It’s not that they don’t want to, but that Long Tuo disagrees. 
He knows his own limitations perfectly well; if he let his illegitimate children return, he would be outshone.
