Chapter 314

Soon, the day arrived for the banquet to be held at the Yunnan Prince's Palace.

The wide street in front of the Yunnan Prince's Palace was completely blocked. The sight of luxury cars and fine horses, which were rarely seen on ordinary days, suddenly became less of a rarity.

Inside the carriage of the Marquis of Changping's residence, Madam Zheng looked at Yao Susu and Yun Xi and said, "Today's banquet is very important. You two must remember your identities and not call each other by the wrong names."

Yao Susu and Yun Xi exchanged a glance and nodded.

At this moment, the carriage stopped, and Zheng was the first to get out.

Yun Wan looked at Yun Xi and a smile curved her lips: "Sister, you really have some tricks up your sleeve. You've managed to get involved with your mother-in-law and Miss Yao, and now you've even made it to this level. You've really risen to the top in one step."

Since the two had already fallen out, Yunxi had no reservations: "I owe everything I have today to the young mistress."

It's all thanks to Yun Wan's incompetence that she was able to climb so fast.

Yun Wan gave a heavy, cold snort and followed them out.

The group disembarked from the carriage and followed the welcoming maid into the Prince's mansion.

The Yunnan King's family had guarded the border for more than ten years and had never returned to Luoyang. Yet, the Yunnan King's Mansion still maintained its first-class grandeur, with green tiles and red eaves, carved railings and jade steps, and the flowers and plants were well-maintained, showing no signs of long-term neglect.

They continued on their way until they reached the garden where the banquet was being held, at which point the four of them parted ways.

Yun Wan naturally went to find Shu Ning Shuang.

Given the occasion, Madam Shu would naturally bring Shu Ningshuang along.

Sure enough, Yun Wan soon spotted them.

As Yun Wan approached, Madam Shu's smile grew even more genuine: "Wanwan, I've heard from Ning Shuang that you're going to introduce your cousin to her, right? Oh dear, having a friend like you, I'm so relieved!"

Marriage has always been a headache for women, but Yun Wan is different. She actually introduced her cousin to Shu Ning Shuang, which saved her a lot of trouble!

When Yun Ruiyang was mentioned, Yun Wan smiled somewhat awkwardly: "I treat Ning Shuang like my own sister, so it's only right that I do these things."

Hearing this, Madam Shu felt even more at ease: "What a good child!"

As they were talking, Madam Yun arrived with Yun Ruiyang.

Yun Ruiyang and Yun Wan's eyes met across the distance. When Yun Wan saw the sadness in Yun Ruiyang's eyes, she looked away awkwardly.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Madam Yun smiled and said, "Wanwan, you young people go and have some fun. We'd like to have a chat!"

Mrs. Shu also smiled.

They'll be in-laws soon, so they should have a proper chat!

Shu Ningshuang's cheeks immediately turned bright red.

She looked at Yun Ruiyang, her eyes filled with the shyness of a young woman.

Yun Ruiyang possessed a vibrant wildness that was absent in the people of Luoyang, unlike anyone Shu Ningshuang had ever met before, which naturally drew her attention even more.

Shu Ningshuang was shy and didn't dare to stare at Yun Ruiyang for long, so she didn't notice that Yun Ruiyang's gaze had never fallen on her from the beginning.

Yun Wan led the two of them to a secluded spot.

There's a small pavilion not far away, and it's empty right now, which is perfect.

The three of them went over together and sat down in the pavilion.

Shu Ningshuang was eager to say something to get closer to Yun Ruiyang, but since the two were not yet familiar with each other, Shu Ningshuang could only keep giving Yun Wan meaningful glances.

Yun Wan understood, but her smile was forced.

In fact, she had long suspected that Shu Ningshuang would like Yun Ruiyang.

But she never expected that when this scene actually happened in front of her, she would feel so uncomfortable.

It's like something that rightfully belongs to you has been coveted by someone else.
