Chapter 961





We’ve Never Met

Makedon rubbed his belly while smirking . “Come on, Ron . The Konstantin clan might not be doing so well but it’s not like you can’t afford another one of these . ”

“But…but I was planning on drinking this before I die . ” Ron was devastated at his loss .

Sauron interjected awkwardly . “Don’t waste a perfectly good bottle of liquor on a dead man . ”

“You one-eyed red-haired bird! I demand both of you pay for it now!” Ron yelled out .

But both of them turned away and idly sat by without moving . They had absolutely no intention of paying him back .

Yang Chen felt bad for him and patted his shoulders . “It’s fine . I remember having a few bottles of 1811 Chateau d’Yquem . You know where it is, so go and take it yourself . ”

Ron appreciated his thoughtfulness . “You’re the kindest, Your Majesty Pluto . But…I don’t really like that wine . Could I instead have two bottles of Methuselah from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti instead?”

“You sly fox! I bet you did it on purpose! One Methuselah equals to two bottles of Black Pearl!” Makedon shrieked .

Yang Chen sighed . Birds of the same feather flock together .

Fortunately, he wasn’t a big fan of liquor so he agreed .

As soon as everyone took their seats, Isabella started to serve them Mediterranean seafood whereas Brewster poured them wine as her helper .

They chatted with Yang Chen in English while having their meal, afraid that Lin Ruoxi and the others would feel left out .





Isabella slammed the table halfway through the meal . “Why do you guys keep talking about wars in front of Miss Ruoxi? Tomorrow is His Majesty Pluto’s wedding . Can’t we talk about that instead?”

Brewster quickly clapped his hands . “I agree . ”

Makedon mumbled under his breath in annoyance .

Sauron grinned . “Dear Bella, isn’t war much more interesting to talk about?”

“Only to you, old man . ” Isabella rolled her eyes .

Having said that, she picked up a dish and placed it in front of Guo Xuehua and Wang Ma .

“Madam, please try this . It has cod in it and it’s fried with eggs and vegetables . I think it’ll suit your palate . ” Isabella smiled .

Guo Xuehua and Wang Ma exchanged looks with each other . They secretly thought the food here was not to their preferences . Therefore, even though the seafood was fresh, they just couldn’t enjoy it .

They accepted the dish and thank her with simple words since they weren’t fluent in English .

Isabella got excited and started to introduce various dishes to Lin Ruoxi, ignoring the men completely .

After the meal ended, Ron gestured Lin Ruoxi into his studio next door .

Yang Chen was curious and wanted to follow her at first, but he was stopped by Guo Xuehua .

“You silly child, you can’t see the wedding dress . You will have to wait until tomorrow . ” Guo Xuehua lectured him .





Yang Chen saw reason in her logic . It made the whole ordeal that much more exciting so he resorted to watching some tv to pass the time .

Guo Xuehua and Wang Ma accepted Isabella’s invitation and went to tour around with a young man who spoke Mandarin .

They were interested to know more about Yang Chen’s past .


Soon, things became peaceful again . Yang Chen, Makedon and Sauron were the only ones left in the house .

Yang Chen drank a sip of his black tea . He then placed down his cup and asked, “Oh right, where’s Edward and the rest?”

Sauron answered . “Edward went to pick up Catherine and Jane . They should be here by tonight . ”

“Catherine’s busy with the London Olympics . She had to attend multiple events so she can only come later . After the wedding, she has to rush back for the closing ceremony . ”

Only then Yang Chen remembered that the London Olympics was happening right now .

“Your Majesty Pluto, are you not planning…to see her?” Sauron hesitated . “You’re getting married tomorrow . ”

Yang Chen’s hands trembled slightly and his gaze darkened .

“I should go . ” Yang Chen nodded .

“Hey, Red-haired Eagle, way to ruin the mood . ” Makedon was spat .

“I was just reminding him of it . I’m sure that he has plans to go sometime in the future . ” Sauron glanced over in disdain .





Yang Chen stopped them from arguing and smiled . “It’s true . I haven’t visited her since I left two years ago . She probably hates me a ton now . It doesn’t feel right to get married without letting her know . It’s fine . Today is the start of a new chapter for me . ”

While the men were busy getting deep, things were completely different next door .

This was Ron’s studio where he worked at and he kept his designs here too .

The studio was filled with glamorous bohemian style dresses .

Ron stood in front of the fitting room as he looked at the curtains nervously and expectantly .

His assistants were inside the fitting room, helping Lin Ruoxi with the dress .

About ten minutes later, the assistants walked out of the room and pulled the curtains .

Ron couldn’t help but suck in a breath when he saw her walking out of the room .

His eyes remained glued to Lin Ruoxi . “Miss Lin, you really are the prettiest bride I’ve ever seen in my whole life . That might also have to do with the dress . ”

Lin Ruoxi looked at the mirror . She gripped her dress nervously and was having a hard time believing what she was seeing .

It was as if she was a completely different person, having worn this dress .

“Thank you, Mr Ron . ” Lin Ruoxi smiled gently and asked, “Is there a name for this wedding dress?”

“Hmm, that’s a good question . ” Ron paused for a bit . “I named this dress Demeter . ”

Lin Ruoxi was confused . “It sounds familiar . ”

“It’s the name of your ‘mother’ . ” Ron smiled warmly . “Madame Persephone’s mother in Greek mythology was Demeter, the Goddess of harvest . I named this dress so because now she will walk you down the aisle when you get married . ”

Lin Ruoxi nodded .

Ron circled around her twice before saying, “Now that you have it on, I must say you look very much like someone from my past . ”

Ron said it softly but Lin Ruoxi still heard him . She asked, “Who?”

Ron was startled at first and replied awkwardly, “Perhaps it’s time you knew, Miss Lin . There was a girl whom Your Majesty Pluto used to keep in his company . She was the first and only girl he had been with before yourself . Her name was Seventeen . Sauron, Jane and Catherine told me you two looked alike and I have to agree with them . ”

Lin Ruoxi’s face darkened when she heard that . She smiled stiffly and said, “It…it’s a shame that we’ve never met . ”
