Chapter 2621: The Banquet

The beautiful woman approached slowly, dressed in a simple yet elegant white dress. Her hair didnt have many ornaments, only a dark green hairpin inserted at a slant.A ta.s.sel dangling from her waist gently swayed as she walked slowly, looking very pretty.

The more she observed the lovely woman, the stranger she felt. A woman incapable of cultivation, who would tremble in the face of danger and seek refuge in the arms of a man, why did this woman occasionally exhibit a mysterious temperament?

Indeed, quite mysterious. She had previously been unable to see through this beautiful woman. Feng Jiu felt that she should not be so simple.

Get in the carriage! The beautiful woman told her children.

The two of them entered the carriage first, and then Feng Jiu helped the beautiful woman into the carriage. After they were all seated, she sat outside and drove the carriage to Ruans Manor.

The Ruans Manor was in close proximity to the Xies. Additionally, since Feng Jiu had explored the road the day before and was familiar with the road conditions, they arrived at the Ruan familys gate quickly. However, there were already seven or eight carriages blocking the road in front of her.

We cant get through, Madam. The road ahead was blocked by carriages. Do you want to get off here instead? She returned her gaze to inquire. It was only a few metres away, and parking the carriage nearby would be convenient.

Thats fine. Lets get off here! The beautiful woman was the first to exit the carriage, and as soon as she did, she told Feng Jiu, Simply park the carriage nearby and inform the Ruan familys gatekeeper to keep a watch on it. s.h.i.+si will accompany me, and you can follow Yutang!

Feng Jiu nodded and answered, Yes.

Feng Jiu followed them inside after parking the carriage and informing the gatekeeper. She walked behind Xie Yutang like a servant boy. When she raised her head to look ahead, she noticed the beautiful woman walking in front of her, chatting with a woman from another carriage, talking and laughing all the way.

She drew her gaze back and looked around. She noticed that the Ruans Manor was equally magnificent as the Xies. Around the path leading to the backyard, a number of shadowy guards kept close watch covertly.

The banquet for Madam Ruan was held in the rear courtyard, with separate areas for young men and young women. Feng Jiu was not permitted to enter inside when they reached the rear courtyards gate since she was a servant boy. At that moment, the beautiful woman told Feng Jiu to wait a bit at the gate.

Soon after she went in with a pair of sons and daughters to meet the mistress of the Ruan family, Xie Yutang came out.

Lets go! I heard that all the descendants of the citys clans have arrived. Lets have a look.Xie Yutang told Feng Jiu, then followed a servant girl who led the way to the other side.

She followed him to a different courtyard. When she entered the courtyard, more than a dozen young men in their teens and twenties were already seated there. Everyone had a servant boy standing behind them.

Those people turned to look when Xie Yutang arrived. When the host, Young Master Ruan, saw another guest approaching, he smiled and came over. I am the Ruan familys eldest son. You are

Im from the Xie family. My name is Xie Yutang. Xie Yutang looked at the person in front of him and noticed that he was about twenty years old. He had an excellent appearance, resolute brows and bright eyes, and a st.u.r.dy figure that made people take another look.

When the young men in the courtyard learned that he belonged to the Xie family, they a.s.sumed he was a direct descendant, and they all beckoned him to come forward.
