Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
A week later.
The news that the Xiang Family was holding a banquet for Miss Huang from Wai State spread throughout the entire Han City. This also became a hot topic recently.
Although the Huang family’s power was not in Han City, they did have a place in Wai State. There were many people who wanted to enter the banquet.
After knowing that people of the same age could go to this banquet, all the families rubbed their palms together and dressed their children, wanting to get close to the Huang family.
The banquet had already begun in the afternoon. People entered the banquet hall one after another. Although Miss Huang Yue of the Huang Family had yet to appear, the banquet had already become lively.
Everyone was discussing the so-called Miss Huang.
Gu Rou brushed her freshly permed hair. Her hair was carefully sprayed with glitter and she was even wearing a pearl headband on her head. The white dress accentuated her pure aura.
Her fair and exquisite facial features, even if she could not shock people at the first moment, she looked more and more beautiful the more one looked at her.
Gu Rou glanced at the people at the banquet. Then, she carried the wine gla.s.s in her hand to Zhang Yue, who had arrived late. “Brother Zhang.”
She called out sweetly and tucked her hair behind her ear, revealing her small and exquisite ears. There was an earring made of pearl hanging from it.
Because the Zhang family had helped the Gu family resolve such a huge problem, Gu Yuan specially instructed her to please Zhang Yue before she came.
Although Gu Rou wanted to climb higher, she had to hold on to the Zhang family tightly. Otherwise, if she encountered such a thing again, the Gu family would really be finished without someone to back them up.
Zhang Yue looked at the carefully dressed Gu Rou and was in a daze for a moment. Then, he smiled gently. “Rou’er.”
He felt the envious gazes from around him and puffed out his chest proudly.
He looked proud and got closer to Gu Rou.
Zhong Yao stood where Gu Rou was and ate the pastry in her hand as she watched this scene. She revealed a jealous expression under her hair.
Although she had also dressed up carefully today, it was far inferior to the haute couture that the Gu family had specially borrowed for Gu Rou.
The dress she was wearing was still the same as before, but the light yellow color did not match her skin color. Instead, it made her look even darker.
Who asked Gu Rou to be able to get close to the Zhang family?
Zhong Yao’s gaze swept across the hall. Part of the reason why she came today was because she wanted to find a suitable backer.

Before Zhong Yao could take action, she saw the two people walking over from the door and stopped what she was doing.
Not only Zhong Yao, but even the others looked in the direction of the door.
Gu Man held Xiang Yin’s arm and walked into the banquet hall. She was wearing a sapphire blue dress that swayed with her footsteps. The color on it gradually changed like the waves of the sea, rising and falling layer by layer. It was even suffused with silver light.
Her hair was half tied up behind her head with a sea-blue gemstone hairpin pinned to it. She lowered her eyes, and the light blue eyeshadow on her face did not look abrupt and strange. Instead, it blended with her cold temperament, making her look even more mysterious.
Gu Man looked up, her exquisite face completely exposed to everyone. With just a little makeup, she successfully attracted everyone’s attention.
The loose hair on her forehead fell, blocking the sharpness in her face and making her look gentler.
The crisp sound of high heels stepping on the ground was like stepping on one’s heart step by step. Gu Man’s innocent face would not ruin her beauty. Instead, it made one feel like they were looking up to a G.o.d.
Xiang Yin, who was standing beside Gu Man, was wearing a rare light blue suit. Such a lively suit did not stand out on Xiang Yin at all.
Xiang Yin’s exquisite face did not look old at all. Instead, because of his meticulously styled appearance, he looked more youthful..
