Chapter 113 Banquet

Saturday, Wang Chunlei’s birthday party.

In order to accommodate Lan Ximeng's class schedule, Alice and Julia returned to Tianquan Star with her overnight last night.

As for Wang Chunlei, she was picked up after her last class on Thursday.

Lan Ximeng was sitting on the spaceship arranged by Wang Chunlei. She had slept uneasily on the starship last night and was still feeling a little dizzy.

"Oh, I feel a little complicated." Lan Ximeng sat on the dressing table, letting the makeup artist do her makeup.

"Who isn't?" Alice and Julia felt the same way.

The clothes that Lan Ximeng is wearing now were prepared early in the morning. When she was in high school, Wang Chunlei said that their coming-of-age ceremony would be very grand, so she asked them to find a designer to design the clothes as soon as possible.

She is now wearing a French dress designed by Ms. Chen Chuntao, with black bubble long sleeves and a V-neck on the upper body, and a beige long skirt with lily prints on the lower body.

She simply tied a bun on her head.

The banquet was in the evening, and it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and most people had already entered.

As classmates, Lan Ximeng and others were arranged to live in the back garden of the manor. Here everyone was of the same age and there was not much power dynamics between them.

"Sergeant, you're dressed well." Alice was wearing a dark red combat uniform, which made her look quite heroic.

She came to Hu Yong holding a goblet of drink.

Hu Yong was wearing the traditional StarCraft dress uniform and blue-black combat uniform.

During those thousands of years of war, people were often ambushed by the enemy while holding banquets.

The heavy formal dresses greatly hindered people's combat performance, and later banquet dresses gradually evolved into today's combat uniforms.

Julia was wearing a dark green fishtail dress and was sitting elegantly in the rest area looking at the flowers in the garden.

"In this November weather, we should eat hotpot." Lan Ximeng picked up a coin-sized blue cake and ate it in one bite. It tasted good, but a little small.

Julia looked at Lan Ximeng who was eating and couldn't help licking her lips. She also wanted to eat, but the clothes she wore today made her belly look obvious.

If I had known to wear looser clothes, she would have wanted to eat it too.

Lan Ximeng tried every different kind of snack and picked up the ones she thought were the most delicious and gave them to Julia.

"Here, these are the most delicious." Lan Ximeng put down the plate, saw there was more seafood on the side, and immediately walked over.

It’s delicious and it’s great that you don’t have to shell it yourself.

Lan Ximeng picked up a piece of deep sea blue shrimp and tasted it slowly, then turned around and met Zhang Xin and Huang Zhi who were also wearing combat uniforms and had plates full of food.

"Hey, what a coincidence." Lan Ximeng picked up a drink and greeted the two of them.

"We've eaten over there. That, that, that, the one is the most delicious. The red ones are not tasty." Zhang Xin pointed at the dishes that were not tasty, with a look of disgust on his face.

Huang Zhi felt the same way. He also thought it was not tasty and it was better to cook it.

Lan Ximeng nodded and pointed out the ones she thought were delicious.

"Why do they look so ignorant? It's so funny." A girl covered half of her face with a fan, and her exposed eyes were full of contempt.

The people who used to chat with her gradually distanced themselves from this girl. It seemed that there was something wrong with this person's brain. She should go home and talk to her parents. Maybe her parents also have problems.

Can anyone who has a connection with the Wang family be a good person?

If it weren't for the issue of face, they would also like to go up and eat.

Before the banquet even started, food from the back garden was served several times.

Kitchen.

A chef hurriedly carved a fake flower and placed it on the meatballs, saying, "Why do we have to redo it so soon? We clearly prepared the measurements."

The machine was stirring until it was smoking. A cake chef, sweating profusely, directed people to replace it with a new one. "No one has touched the one in the front hall. The one that needs to be replaced is the one in the back garden."

"The back garden is full of children with big appetites, so we have to move quickly."

Lan Ximeng ate a meatball with satisfaction. It was delicious, but she didn't know if the carvings were just for decoration or if they were edible.

She thought about it and ate it in one bite. Ah, it was a radish.

It's obviously blue, but why does it taste and smell like radish?

Julia looked at Lan Ximeng with envy as she and her family were eating heartily while she could only eat a few small cakes to satisfy her cravings.

Lan Ximeng once again gave Julia some delicious but light food. Feeling half full, she came to Alice and the others.

Liu Yi: "I think we should..."

Hu Yong: "No, there should be more..."

Alice: "It's better..."

Lan Ximeng? ? ?

Unable to understand, Lan Ximeng chose to go back and sit with Julia.

Before she sat back down, she found a group of people surrounding Julia.

Through the crowd, Lan Ximeng saw Julia's eyes looking for help.

She tried to move forward, but found she couldn't squeeze in.

It was obvious that these young masters and young ladies had not had much training. Lan Ximeng felt that they would all be knocked down if she pushed them.

She could only give Julia a look that said "you're on your own".

Lan Ximeng shook her head and prepared to look for her two dinner companions, but she found that both Zhang Xin and Huang Zhi were surrounded by people.

Even the people Hu Yong, whom she disliked, were surrounded tightly, and a group of people were nodding, as if they could understand what they were saying.

In an instant, Lan Ximeng and a girl holding a fan were the only two people in the entire garden.

The man seemed to have seen Lan Ximeng's eyes. He glanced at her fiercely and left with his clothes.

Lan Ximeng was puzzled. What did she do?

In the evening, the music began to change and became classical music.

The children from the back garden also came to the hall and watched the birthday boy fire the salute.

In the interstellar world, because of wars, few children can live to the age of 20.

At that time, the blessing given to adults was to give them a gun and send them into the battlefield.

Now that there is peace, the custom has become to fire a salute to signify that she has become an adult and can be independent.

Lan Ximeng grabbed a piece of yellow sequins and looked at Wang Chunlei on the podium.

Be happy.

With the congratulations of relatives and friends, Wang Chunlei's father also announced the marriage between their family and the plant tycoon's family.

There was a huge uproar at once, and Huang Zhi and others who had just heard the news felt a little surprised.

Lan Ximeng, Alice and Julia kept looking at the two people who were pushed into the center.

Alice: "She looks pretty good."

Julia: "My intuition tells me that this person can see past this."

Lan Ximeng: "It's quite high."

The following scene is the timeless etiquette of adults making friends. Uncle Wang took Wang Chunlei to talk with several friends and introduced his partners to Wang Chunlei.

"It feels like we are going to give the company to Xiaolei." Julia and Lan Ximeng whispered to each other.

Lan Ximeng shook her head. Who would have known? It was only thanks to Wang Chunlei that she could witness this scene now.

She doesn't understand anything else.

Since the birthday girl had to entertain other people, Lan Ximeng and her classmates were entertained by Wang Chunlei's sister Wang Qiuling.

"You should eat and drink. There are only us here, no adults." As soon as Wang Qiuling finished speaking, the teenagers who were originally very cautious relaxed and started to eat the food on the table.

Wang Qiuling is very different from Wang Chunlei. This elder sister is very smooth in dealing with people. "Xiao Meng, you guys stay here tonight and rest. Go back to school with Xiaolei tomorrow."

"Okay, thank you Sister Ling."
