Elizabeth’s ears buzzed, stunned by the words, and it took her a long time to recover.
It took her a long time to find her voice, trembling violently.
"Dad, what did you say?"
The ruler of the Lorentz Family, inviting someone from Hua Country to dinner?
Brule’s expression remained wooden and blank, his mouth mechanically opening and closing.
But each sentence dropped a bomb on Elizabeth.
Blasting her mind into a blank slate.
"The master will invest in the Cosmic Carrier’s experimental project because of Miss Ying."
"It’s not because of the project that the master met Miss Ying, it’s because the master values Miss Ying highly, the master he..."
Brule couldn’t continue his words.
It’s more than valuing, it’s respect, it’s admiration.
But why exactly?!
Even now, Brule couldn’t understand how Ying Zijin and Xize Lorentz met.
Moreover, since Xize Lorentz announced his return, few people had seen him.
Only the patriarch and the Elders Council.
Elizabeth’s face whitened inch by inch, finally collapsing to the ground, shivering with cold.
She had leveraged the Lorentz name to manipulate the International Physics Center and obtained Ying Zijin’s paper.
Before this, Elizabeth had completely looked down on Ying Zijin.
Because internationally, no surname was nobler than Lorentz.
But now.
Elizabeth stared blankly at the shackles on her hands.
Her father and she were stripped of their surname, expelled from the Lorentz Family.
The Hua Country person she had looked down on was honored as a guest by the ruler of the Lorentz Family.
How did things turn out like this?
Elizabeth had no idea, only endless regret flooding her heart.

Meanwhile at the hotel.
At five in the afternoon, Ying Zijin left, preparing to go to Lorentz Castle.
As soon as she stepped out of the room, she was pushed against the wall.
A teasing voice sounded: "Girlfriend, since when did you start enjoying hide-and-seek games?"
A familiar scent of jade and agarwood fell down.
Gentle and steady.
"Someone invited us to dinner." Ying Zijin’s expression was calm, as if she wasn’t changing the subject, "Sir, are you coming?"
Fu Yunshen raised his hand, pinched the girl’s cheek, and chuckled, "Little liar."
Thirty minutes later.
Lorentz Castle.
Job personally welcomed the two inside.
Xize was quite surprised Ying Zijin had brought someone along, but he didn’t need an introduction to know it was her boyfriend.
"Xize Lorentz." Xize extended his hand, emphasizing, "The one from the history books."
Fu Yunshen raised an eyebrow, shaking his hand, "Hello, I’m Fu Yunshen."
Xize was a bit puzzled, "Hmm? Why aren’t you surprised I’m still alive?"
Even the Elders Council and the current patriarch of the Lorentz Family fainted upon learning his identity.
"Isn’t it because—" Fu Yunshen’s eyes curved with a smile, "I have a little ancestor to take care of?"
Xize: "..."
Compared to his boss, he really was just a youngster.
But why didn’t he have a girlfriend?
Fu Yunshen tilted his head, "So, Yaoyao, is this also your disciple?"
Ying Zijin hadn’t yet spoken when Xize fell silent for a moment, unable to accept, "Boss, you have another disciple?!"
He thought his only rival was Norton, that bastard.
How come more suddenly came out?
What kind of world is this?
"No." Ying Zijin glanced at Xize, "A little brother."
"Well then, Mr. Fu." Xize stood up, flexing his wrists, smiling, "Mind sparring a few moves?"
As the little brother, he had to supervise for his boss.
Fu Yunshen raised an eyebrow, "An honor, please."
Their agreement was so swift, Ying Zijin couldn’t say a word.
A minute later.
Fu Yunshen stepped back, his expression lazy, smiling roguishly, "Patriarch Lorentz, thanks for the concession."
Xize lay on the ground, expressionless.
