Chapter 783: Junior And Senior (1)

The smile on Zhao Youming’s face almost disappeared. In fact, how could he not know the gap between him and Zhao Youlin? Not to mention anything else, just the relationship between Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng, and the status of the Mu family in Shalnork... with the Mu family supporting Zhao Youlin, he was no match for her at all.

Not to mention Han Yichen, the Song family that had countless connections with the Mu family, and the Su family... Zhao Youming just felt unwilling. Why... why could this woman gather so many enviable forces of power so easily? She was clearly just an ant under his and Zhao Youxi’s feet before he left for his studies, why did everything change after he went abroad and came back?

He had painstakingly planned for so many years, but all his plans were replaced by this person. How could he not hate this person?!

Zhao Youlin narrowed her eyes and looked at the chill in Zhao Youming’s eyes. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the man who was walking in from the corner of her eye. The smile on her face suddenly became bright. She walked towards the door.

Zhao Youming had been paying close attention to Zhao Youlin. When he saw her react, he furrowed his brows and followed Zhao Youlin’s line of sight to the door. It would have been better if he didn’t look, but when he did, Zhao Youming’s face completely changed color.

That person... how could that person be here? How could it be him? How could it be... how could it be... impossible!

Zhao Youming’s face was as pale as paper, and his eyes were wide open. He looked in disbelief at the man in a suit who was slowly walking over.

There was a voice in his head telling him to run quickly, but his body was out of control. His legs were nailed to the ground, and he couldn’t move at all.

“Sirius, you’re finally here.” Zhao Youlin greeted him with a smile, her eyes full of joy.

“There was traffic, so I’m late.” Sirius said as he narrowed his eyes and scanned the entire hall, as if he was looking for something. Finally... he stopped when he saw Zhao Youming, who was standing not far away in a daze because of his appearance.

A pair of deep eyes looked directly at Zhao Youming through the lively crowd.

The two of them looked at each other. One was frightened, while the other was overwhelmed with emotions. Zhao Youlin took in their every move, and the smile on her lips deepened. She took the initiative to step forward and hold Sirius’s arm. She interrupted their locked gazes and said in a low voice, “Let’s go. I’ll bring you to meet the guests who are here today.”

Although Duan Yarong, Zhao Shunrong, and Ye Yan were busy dealing with the guests, their attention had been on Zhao Youlin. When they saw Zhao Youlin suddenly bring a stranger over, the three of them were a little surprised.

However, Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong quickly remembered what Zhao Youlin had told them before. They immediately understood that this person must be the one who had some history with Zhao Youming that Zhao Youlin had mentioned.

After hesitating for a moment, the two of them took the initiative to greet the guest.

“Youlin, this is...” Duan Yarong looked at Sirius, who was beside Zhao Youlin. Although he didn’t look much older than Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng... he possessed an additional sense of maturity and vicissitudes that his peers didn’t have.

Duan Yarong couldn’t help but feel a little sympathetic in her heart, believing that this trait only came through the hard road of treachery.

“Mom, this is Sirius that I mentioned to you before. Sirius, these are my parents.”

Sirius respectfully greeted the two of them. “Mr. Zhao, Mrs. Zhao, hello. I’m Sirius. I’ve been abroad for a long time and have just returned. I’m still not very clear about the situation here. I hope that the two of you can give me some guidance.”

“Of course not. You are Youlin’s friend, our company’s future partner, and our junior. It’s only right.”

Duan Yarong was chatting with Sirius when Ye Yan came over and asked in a low voice, “Who is this person? I’ve never seen him before. Isn’t he from Shalnork?”

Zhao Youlin replied with a smile, “He’s a friend and our company’s future partner. He’s been abroad for a long time. Of course, you haven’t seen him before.”

Ye Yan looked at the smile on Zhao Youlin’s lips and felt that the appearance of this person was not as simple as she said.

However, since Zhao Youlin did not want to talk about it in detail, he would not ask too much. Anyway, if there was a purpose to appear, something would definitely happen. He just needed to quietly watch the show from the side.

Just as Ye Yan expected, the show did not make him wait for long. After chatting with Duan Yarong and Sirius, Sirius’s attention naturally once again focused on Zhao Youming.

Zhao Youlin also noticed this and smiled. She pulled Sirius and walked towards Zhao Youming.

Duan Yarong, Zhao Shunrong, and the others looked at each other and quickly followed.

Zhao Youming did not expect Zhao Youlin to suddenly bring him here. He had nowhere to hide, even if he wanted to. He could only watch as the two of them got closer and closer, and the expression on his face became stiffer and stiffer.

Zhao Youlin acted as if she didn’t see the repulsion on Zhao Youming’s face. She smiled like a flower and said, “Didn’t you just ask me about my guest? Here he is.”

When Zhao Youming heard this, a few cracks appeared on his face. He remembered that Zhao Youlin said that she had invited two familiar friends, so these two people were her friends?!

“Cousin, you and he are... are...”

Zhao Youlin smiled. She pretended not to see the fear in Zhao Youming’s eyes. “That’s right, Sirius and I are friends. “He is about to become a partner of our Zhao Group. He will cooperate with the Zhao group to develop trade with the outside world. In the future, we might have to meet often. Today, he came over so that everyone in the company can get to know him.”

Zhao Youming had not been frightened as much as today in the past year. Damn it, how could these two people know each other? How could it be these two?!

Zhao Youming forced himself to calm down, but the expression on his face was too stiff. He could not do anything, even if he wanted to cover it up. “His name is... Sirius?”

Zhao Youming seemed to want to struggle for a while, but Sirius had already seen through his thoughts and blocked his escape route. “Junior, don’t you know my name?”

The last bit of hope in his heart was broken, and Sirius’s sentence was like a bolt from the blue, directly splitting Zhao Youming into pieces.

“Senior... Senior?”

Upon hearing this “senior” after over two years, Sirius’ face turned ugly.

When he heard Zhao Youming’s familiar call, Sirius grinned and sneered, “Senior? Am I really that?!”
