Chapter 975: Master Sheng’s Vest (1)

What relationship did Zhai Yunsheng have with Mr. Hall?

And why did they appear familiar with each other?

After all, Mr. Hall was not an ordinary person.

He was a core member of the Habsburg family. Due to this reason, he held a huge amount of power in the Habsburg family,

The Goodman family was on par with the Habsburg family. Both of them were amongst the eight most powerful and influential families in the world.

However, Henry Goodman and Lucy Goodman’s status and position in the Goodman family were far less than Mr. Hall’s status in the Habsburg family.

As a result, when Mr. Goodman saw Mr. Hall, he had to be respectful.

Furthermore, Mr. Hall was a difficult person to approach. Typically, an average person would not even get to meet him, let alone be friends with him.

Even Henry Goodman only got to meet Mr. Hall at certain events.

Therefore, he was incredibly surprised to learn that Mr. Hall had come to the ball today.

Henry was even more confused to see Mr. Hall speak to Zhai Yunsheng in such a friendly manner.

As a result, Henry carefully asked: “Mr. Hall, do you know Young Master Zhai?”

Upon hearing this, Mr. Hall smiled and answered: “Yeah. Young Master Zhai and I are friends despite the difference in age. He’s a very important friend of mine.”

Friends…

And a very important friend…

Henry was shocked by Mr. Hall’s answer.

Zhai Yunsheng was friends with Mr. Hall?!

How did he manage to do that?!

This was not scientifically possible!

At the same time, this was also very bad news to Henry.

If he was dealing with the Zhai family, what if someone from the Habsburg family stepped in to intervene?

At this moment, he was thankful that he used a roundabout route to deal with the Zhai family. For now, he hadn’t yet exposed himself. This meant that he still had a bit of room to work with.

This time around, Henry’s eyes were different when he looked at Zhai Yunsheng again.

There was no longer disdain within his eyes.

At the same time, Lucy looked at Zhai Yunsheng with amazement.

She also did not expect that Zhai Yunsheng had connections with members of the Habsburg family.

However, she quickly accepted this. After all, Zhai Yunsheng was not an ordinary person. Just because someone else couldn’t manage, that didn’t mean that Zhai Yunsheng couldn’t.

Henry took a moment to come back to his senses. Then, he said: “Well, what a coincidence. It’s lovely for both of you to meet here today.”

Upon hearing this, Mr. Hall explained: “No, it’s not a coincidence. I came here to accompany Young Master Zhai.”

Mr. Hall made it clear that he came to the ball today, not because of Henry or the Goodman family.

When Henry heard this, he felt astonished and embarrassed.

Mr. Hall came here today because of Zhai Yunsheng? And not because of him?

What abilities did Zhai Yunsheng even have? Why was Mr. Hall showing him so much respect?

Zhai Yunsheng said to Mr. Hall: “Thank you for accompanying me. Without you, I probably would have been bored to death.”

Upon hearing this, Mr. Hall joked: “Bored to death? How is that possible? Your fiancee is accompanying you!”

As he said this, Mr. Hall’s gaze fell on Jian Yiling. She had been silent so far.

“Miss Jian Yiling, my friend has often mentioned you to me. You’re indeed very bright and beautiful. One can not take their eyes away from you. No wonder Young Master Zhai constantly thinks about you.”

Constantly thinks about you…

When Jian Yiling heard these words, her face began to blush.

Zhai Yunsheng also looked away in embarrassment.

However, these words were quite unpleasant to Lucy.
