Chapter 415: The Banquet 3
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The banquet had invited almost all the top families in the capital, and its grandeur was quite evident.
This was the first time the Ye family had attended such an event. Even though they were trying to maintain their composure, a hint of unease still occasionally crept into their demeanor.
The guests in attendance today were from the most prominent families in the capital. So, when they saw the Ye family, though they didn’t show it, a trace of disdain was hard to conceal.
However, Ye Li seemed unfazed by this apparent disdain. It was his first time attending such a high-cla.s.s gathering, which was worlds apart from the events he had previously attended. He held a wine gla.s.s and engaged in socializing, introducing himself to various individuals in the hopes of expanding his company’s business.
As for Lin Wanqin, she didn’t accompany Ye Li, but she also couldn’t seamlessly blend in with the affluent ladies present. It wasn’t that others rejected her; it was just that she couldn’t quite find her place. At times, she appeared a bit awkward.
In the lounge.
Ye Xiyuan sat within, dressed in a pink princess gown that made her look charming and adorable, resembling a cute princess.
Murong Yanshu gazed at Ye Xiyuan, a smile on her face as she complimented,
“Xiyuan, you truly are the most beautiful little princess today.”
“G.o.dmother, you’re the star today!” Ye Xiyuan tilted her head and smiled.
“And, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have become a little princess!”
“This little one really knows how to speak!” Murong Yanshu beamed, saying, “I’ve always known that having a daughter is wonderful! Xiyuan, we’ll have each other in the future.’
Nangong Xuyao smiled, but his eyes were icy. “Mom, it’s about time. Shouldn’t we head out?”
As he spoke, he only looked at Murong Yanshu, not even sparing a glance at Ye Xiyuan. Perhaps it could be said that ever since he entered the lounge, he hadn’t exchanged a single word with Ye Xiyuan. He hadn’t even looked her way.
Ye Xiyuan smiled on the surface but felt a twinge of unease deep within. Although she had long learned from the system that Nangong Xuyao’s affection for her had greatly diminished, seeing his drastically different att.i.tude now was still unsettling.
She didn’t know why he had suddenly changed like this, and she couldn’t shake the feeling that this altered Nangong Xuyao posed a certain danger.
Before she could contemplate it further, Murong Yanshu led her out.
The banquet had been underway for some time when Huangfu Ruiling and Ye Lengan finally arrived.
Upon hearing of Huangfu Ruilings arrival, Murong Yanshu, as the host, naturally went out to welcome him. It wasn’t only because Huangfu Ruiling was a member of the Huangfu family but also because Huangfu Ruiling was on the verge of becoming the family’s head.
“Xuyao, come with me to welcome Young Master Huangfu,” Murong Yanshu said, turning her gaze from Nangong Xuyao to Ye Xiyuan. She continued, “Xiyuan, you should come along!’
Although Ye Xiyuan wasn’t a member of the Nangong family, she was still one of the central figures today. It would be impolite not to accompany them in welcoming the guests when she was present.
At this moment, Ye Xiyuan couldn’t decide if she felt happy or unhappy. She was pleased that Murong Yanshu had asked her to welcome the guests, a sign of her regard. However, the thought of welcoming Ye Lengan, considering that Huangfu Ruiling was there, left her quite reluctant. It felt as if she was inferior to Ye Lengan.
Nonetheless, regardless of her personal feelings, she joined Murong Yanshu. This day was of utmost importance, and there was no room for error. She couldn’t afford to leave a negative impression on Murong Yanshu.
Huangfu Ruiling remained in a wheelchair, but this time, it was different. The person pus.h.i.+ng the wheelchair was Ye Lengan.
As the two entered, nearly all eyes in the room were fixed upon them, particularly the women whose eyes held tangible traces of envy when they
looked at Ye Leng’an..
