Chapter 356: Chapter 356 Tell everyone, she is a national treasure! _1
Pan Huaiyun was surprised, “What life-saving favor?”

Xia Yanyan didn’t know either. The maid had caught only half of the story, “It seems that Uncle Ye and Aunt Ye went for a sea vacation and encountered pirates. That Little White Lotus supposedly saved them. Are you kidding? How can she even stand a chance against pirates?”

Pan Huaiyun also found it hard to believe. She sent a message to her father, asking him to investigate the matter.

Soon after, her father had found a news report from two days ago.

The news report stated that a cruise ship had been robbed bare by pirates at sea. But there was an unexpected twist. A mysterious woman apparently snatched everyone’s possessions back.

Among the comments left by those involved in the incident, it was mentioned that even the parents of Ye Junqing and Ye Shiting were taken away by the pirates but later returned with all their possessions, narrowly escaping death.

When Pan Huaiyun saw this news, she was ecstatic. If the elders of the Ye family were grateful for the life-saving assistance, it would be harder for Ye Shiting to jump back in the race.

This could be the stroke of luck her father was waiting for!

With Bai Lanwu’s hand in hers, Ye Xingguang walked into the shop, “Mom, have you been here before? You seem more familiar with this place than I am.”

Bai Lanwu chuckled, “This shop does custom tailoring. I had a few outfits made for you to wear for your engagement.”

An engagement? Already?

Ye Xingguang blushed like a young girl, “Isn’t it too soon? We’ve only just decided to give it a shot.”

“No one said the engagement is happening right away. Just preparing the outfit in advance.”

“Oh.”

Right after Ye Xingguang spoke, she looked up and saw Xia Yanyan.

Eh…

What are the odds of running into her here!

But Xia Yanyan didn’t recognize Ye Xingguang.

Ye Xingguang touched her face in realization, she hadn’t put on makeup today so Xia Yanyan couldn’t recognise her?

At this moment, a sales associate came over and asked what kind of attire they wanted to custom make.

Bai Lanwu said, “I would like to order an engagement dress for my daughter.”

The sales associate questioned, “Did you make a prior reservation? If not, it might take up to a year to tailor the dress. Our designer has a policy of making only one dress a month. Depending on the overall image of the customer, the designer tailors a suitable dress. Therefore we do not accept rush orders.”

Bai Lanwu chuckled, “I understand. I booked it already, here to collect the dress. My name is Bai Lanwu.”

The sales associate nodded, “Alright, please wait.”

Over to the side, Xia Yanyan was talking to Pan Huaiyun, “This is not going well. I’ll become a public enemy. I must push the court to proceed as soon as possible. If I don’t push Ye Junqing to change his mind and my cousin-in-law misses the presidential race, I’ll be despised by both the Ye family and my grandmother’s family!”

Pan Huaiyun said, “Isn’t that a bit exaggerated? Legal proceedings don’t usually move that fast.”

Xia Yanyan felt like she was backed into a corner, “Isn’t it? What if my cousin-in-law can’t run for the presidency? Wouldn’t I be despised by the Ye family? Today my grandma even phoned me. Huaiyun, ask your father to expedite the trial, it’s hard to believe that in the face of a three-year imprisonment, Ye Junqing would still refuse to compromise, the Ye elders would still calmly stand by that Little White Lotus.”

Ye Xingguang’s heart skipped a beat, if Ye Junqing fails to resolve the current predicament before trial, wouldn’t he end up in jail?

Anger surged within Ye Xingguang. If that’s the case, she would just reveal her real identity as a national treasure before the trial!
