"If that's not the case, why did that guy call me here? Surely he didn't want me to snatch the groom by force, right? I have no interest in men at all!"
Yang Yan said irritably.
At some point, he had already grabbed a charcoal-grilled pig trotter in his hand, biting into it fiercely as if to vent.
Forget it!
Saying too much to this guy feels like my IQ would drop several levels, it's better not to speak.
Han Ruyu glanced at Yang Yan, secretly admonishing herself.
She really couldn't stand this self-righteous guy anymore.
"Thank you very much for coming today to attend the engagement ceremony of my Rothschild family, Blitz, and the lady of the Herbert Clan, Miss Kasha. Thank you all in advance."
At this moment, an old man came out and said with a smile, then bowed slightly.
"The Herbert Clan? Haha, how come I didn't know those guys actually have a clan?"
Yang Yan said with a laugh.
The Herbert does indeed have such a clan in the present world.
But what that old man should be talking about is the Blood Race's Herbert.
However, Duke Herbert is a title within the Blood Race.
That title can be challenged by any Blood Race member who reaches that strength, and then claimed for themselves.
Like Duke Herbert the Seventh and Duke Herbert the Eleventh, besides both being Blood Race, having some common interests, they have no blood relation.
Are these guys trying to bring the Blood Race out into the open?
Yang Yan couldn't help but frown.
In the West, the Blood Race is far less respected than the Angel Race.
This is related to them sucking human blood and treating humans as livestock to be bred.
Therefore, they have always been able to survive only in the dark.
However, from the actions of these guys now, they want to bring the Blood Race into the spotlight!
Yang Yan maintained a faint smile throughout, calmly watching Blitz and the woman named Kasha beside him.
He didn't know what role the Rothschild family played behind this series of Blood Race actions.
Are they cooperating?
Or was it for some other reason?
Unfortunately, for the moment, he couldn't get the answers he wanted.
"What's wrong?"
Han Ruyu couldn't help but lower her voice when she saw Yang Yan holding half a pig's trotter silently.
"Nothing really, just thinking that the barrier between the present world and the Hidden World is about to break."
"Thinking about how the three views of those ordinary people in the present world will soon be shattered, I feel a little excited."
Yang Yan said with a wicked grin.
"This is not a good thing." Han Ruyu said worriedly, "If the Hidden World is fully exposed to the present world, there will be huge turmoil between countries."
"And it's always the ordinary people who get hurt in these upheavals. If things go wrong, the third world war could break out, and it would be more devastating than any before."
Don't look at Han Ruyu as just an ordinary woman, but because her family has long dealt with people in the Hidden World, she sees these things very clearly.
"Don't you think I know that!"
Yang Yan sighed softly, looking intensely at Kasha, the would-be bride, and said slowly:
"However, the exposure of the Hidden World is almost an inevitability, it cannot be stopped. The rest depends on how each country handles it."
"Can it really not be stopped?"
Han Ruyu looked at Yang Yan worriedly.
She didn't say this to make Yang Yan do something; she didn't even know Yang Yan's identity, but deep down, she hoped this mysterious man with great power could stop all this from happening.
"It really can't be stopped!"
Yang Yan shook his head helplessly, finally putting down the pig's trotter in his hand, and pulling out a tissue to wipe his mouth and hands.
Unless that door descends early, most people from the Hidden World would go inside.
Only then will the present world and Hidden World continue to maintain balance.
But how difficult is that?
You could even say the chances are slim.
Of course, Yang Yan didn't tell Han Ruyu these words; after all, this involves a lot, and it's best if a normal woman like her doesn't know about it.
"Look at that guy Blitz's face, he looks really unhappy right now! That's really exciting."
Seeing Han Ruyu's worried look, Yang Yan couldn't help but make a joke.
"Isn't he your friend? Why do you seem excited instead?"
Han Ruyu asked, puzzled.
"Endure the hardships to become a better man. Maybe this guy is savoring it, hoping for it!"
Yang Yan laughed as he spoke.
Hearing his words, Han Ruyu was left completely speechless.
However, at that moment, it was not just Han Ruyu who was at a loss for words; Blitz, too, saw the schadenfreude smile on Yang Yan's face right away.
In an instant, Blitz felt even more miserable.
What is all this?
Why do I always have to run into these ridiculous family-style weddings?
First, it was my cousin, now it's a vampire!
How am I supposed to enjoy this?
Is a respectable heir of the Rothschild family not allowed to have a proper romance?
"Tsk tsk! Why does that guy look at me with such a troubled gaze!"
Yang Yan muttered to himself quietly while peeling a grape and popping it into his mouth.
Han Ruyu opened her mouth but ultimately chose to remain silent.
Dealing with this guy who loves to joke around, she truly felt hopeless.
"For the rest of the time, everyone enjoys the food and fun."
While Blitz wore a face of frustration, the elderly man beside him spoke.
Just as the old man's words fell, Blitz's mouth corners suddenly curved upward.
Yang Yan, coincidentally, saw this scene.
Upon seeing Blitz like this, the smile on Yang Yan's face grew wider.
The show was about to begin.
With an attitude of indifference, Yang Yan found it quite amusing to watch.
Sure enough, just as Yang Yan thought, Blitz directly looked at the old man and said:
"Kasha and I only met a few days ago. Getting engaged like this might not be appropriate, right?"
As soon as his words were spoken, the surroundings suddenly became silent aside from the music.
Everyone looked at him with astonished gazes.
This kind of situation, let alone seen, had never even been heard of!
For such high-level family clans, family marriages are already common practice.
It's merely two families linking through marriage for mutual benefits, regardless of whether the bride and groom have mutual affection, it's just how it is.
As long as there's enough profit, even love, even the soul can be sold.
Besides, even if they are archenemies in private, for the sake of family interests, they should put it aside, wearing happy smiles to act out a perfect play in public.
Upon hearing Blitz's words, Kasha also looked at him in shock.
Is this guy crazy?
He actually dares to say such words on this occasion!
