After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 1929 - 1933: So-Called High Society

1The So-Called High Society

United Kingdom, London.

Duke Loh Yi Mansion, on the lawn, brightly lit, countless flowers decorating the lawn outside the Duke’s Mansion beautifully.

The band plays soothing and gentle music, guests mingling in twos and threes with wine glasses in hand, dressed in finery and speaking elegantly.

The men talk about stocks, wine, and women.

The women discuss fashion, food, and men.

The so-called high society, nothing more than this.

"The Duke of Kent and his family have arrived!" a maid hurriedly came to inform.

Upon hearing this name, the guests almost invariably turned their eyes.

Sure enough, three people strolled in.

Walking in front were the Duke of Kent and his wife Jiao Yalin, the two of them arm in arm, smiling and conversing as they walked, appearing to be intimate lovers.

Jiao Yang followed a step behind, looked at his parents in front, and just shook his head lightly.

Outsiders thought of this couple as model partners, but in fact, only he knew best that his parents had been estranged since he was a few years old, maintaining the marriage for various reasons.

Back then, Jiao Yang, in his rebellious phase, lost faith in love due to his parents’ failed marriage, abandoned classical music, and took up rock band, leading a life of indulgence and debauchery.

However, fortunately, he did not continue with that lifestyle and instead freed himself from chaotic living.

Now, looking at his parents ahead, Jiao Yang had already made a silent decision in his heart that he would never follow in their footsteps.

As Jiao Yang, dressed in a light gray suit, walked over, it wasn’t just the two daughters of the Loh Yi family, but all the women at the banquet were captivated by his presence.

Jiao Yang, with his four kinds of bloodlines, inherited almost all of his parents’ best features.

Black hair and eyes from his mother, physique and straight nose from his father, received conventional aristocratic education in England from early on, living a rakish life after adulthood, and in the past five years, he had gained a depth of life.

On him was blended the elegance of an aristocrat, the unrestrained spirit of a wanderer, the shedding of youthful naivety, and the profoundness of a man.

That kind of aura was unique and alluring.

At this moment, Jiao Yang was at the peak of a man’s attractiveness, a casual glance could captivate the hearts of all the women present.

However, he did not look at anyone, just walked over calmly.

The two daughters of the Loh Yi family, upon seeing him, were already heart aflutter, hurrying to follow their parents in greeting him.

"Welcome, everyone!"

Mr. Loh Yi and Mrs. Loh Yi smiled as they approached.

After exchanging cheek kisses, Mrs. Loh Yi’s eyes fell on Jiao Yang, "Augus, long time no see."

"Hello." Jiao Yang nodded to her politely, yet distantly.

Mrs. Loh Yi hastily pulled her two daughters over, "Let me introduce, these are my two daughters, Lilly and Su."

Jiao Yang nodded gently, then extended his right hand to them.

The two girls, one twenty-six, the other twenty-three, both with beautiful blonde hair, the older sister Lilly being gentler, while the younger sister Su was more outgoing and lively.

Lilly extended her hand to shake his, while Su stepped forward, ready to exchange cheek kisses.

The two girls had already received hints from their parents, knowing that tonight Jiao Yang would choose one of them as a future wife.
