Wu Yong cordially welcomed Lai Siyu in. The banquet was held in the garden of the City Lord's Mansion, somewhat reminiscent of a buffet reception in the Celestial Empire.
Feeling the unfriendly gazes, Lai Siyu would regret not bringing Sanyan and Siji with her, as it would disgust them to death.
What a great banquet it was! Lai Siyu couldn’t help but think back to all the banquets she had attended before. It seemed that none of them had gone smoothly.
"Master Yong, you go and do your work. I'll go shopping by myself." Seeing that there were too many visitors, Lai Siyu said to Wu Yong.
"It's okay, it's okay. Someone will naturally receive those guests!" His task tonight was to accompany Lai Siyu, and the other guests would be received by his brothers and sisters.
When the princes of the Six Princes' Mansions saw that their sisters were unhappy, they naturally noticed the source of their unhappiness, but this source made them see the light.
They left their sisters who were complaining about them and walked straight to where Wu Yong and Lai Siyu were.
"Brother Wu, who is this beauty?" Prince Su asked Wu Yong with a slight bow. In the past, he would not bother to care about a bastard from the city lord's mansion.
"Yes, Brother Wu, please introduce this beauty to us!"
"To be valued by your City Lord's Mansion, this beauty must have an unusual background!"
One prince after another gathered around, vying to make friends with Lai Siyu.
Wu Yong introduced Lai Siyu's public identity to them with a smile, and the noble ladies who were listening to the conversation attentively couldn't help but cover their mouths and sneer.
"I thought she was some noble lady, but it turns out she's just a restaurant owner!"
"The City Lord's Mansion sent a sedan chair to pick up a woman like this. I guess the City Lord has taken a fancy to her."
"Humph, I hate vixens like this who seduce men the most!"
"Her cultivation isn't very high either. I guess she usually focuses on seducing men."
They were all cultivators and they didn't use telepathy, so Lai Siyu could of course hear their discussions.
The princes had already become interested after hearing Wu Yong's introduction. They thought it would be nice to secretly keep such a beauty as a concubine. With her looks, it would be ok to even take her home as a concubine.
After listening to the discussions of those female cultivators, his gaze towards Lai Siyu became even more meaningful.
Lai Siyu sneered, pushed aside several princes, and walked straight to the female cultivators who were talking about her most enthusiastically. She pointed at their noses and said rudely, "I am a vixen who seduces men. I usually use my heart to seduce men. That's better than women like you who want to seduce but are despised, and want to seduce but cannot seduce!
Look in the mirror before you go out. Look at you, with all those pearls and jade on your head, aren’t you afraid of breaking your neck?
Even if I'm dressed like a dog, even if I'm dressed up carefully, so what?
It’s because there are no men willing to look at you more!
If I were your parents, I would be embarrassed to give birth to you!
I don't know what your dad was thinking at the time, why didn't he just shoot you up against the wall after he was done?!"
Where had the girls ever heard such insults? Each one was trembling with anger. They pointed at Lai Siyu and kept calling her "you" for a long time without being able to explain why. Their carefully made-up faces were twisted with anger.
The male guests were so shocked that their jaws dropped to the ground. They didn't expect that such a pure-looking female cultivator could be so fierce. Even men couldn't say the words she cursed!
However, this kind of female cultivator seems to be more real and lovely...
"How dare you! Who are you? How dare you be so arrogant and presumptuous here!" Princess Taishu really couldn't stand it anymore. She jumped out with a bad temper and scolded Lai Siyu.
Lai Siyu smiled sweetly and said, "Who I am is none of your business. This is the City Lord's Mansion, not your home! You are a guest, and so am I. If you want a fight, let's go outside the palace and I'll be there for you!"
Seeing that a war was about to break out, Wu Yong hurried over to mediate. The six princes also became interested in Lai Siyu, so they followed Wu Yong and came forward to separate Lai Siyu from the ladies.
After this incident, Lai Siyu was isolated from all the noble ladies, and everyone looked at her with disdain and resentment. However, more young men gathered around her.
At this moment, a guest came to the city lord's study.
The visitor is a stunningly beautiful lady. If she were willing to go to the garden, she would definitely make all the beauties in the garden look like scum.
She showed the token in her hand to Wu Qinzhi, and Wu Qinzhi's expression immediately became respectful.
"I wonder what brings you here, young lady?" This person sneaked into his study to see him, and was obviously not here to attend the banquet, so Wu Qin asked this question.
The female cultivator collected the token in her hand and said coldly, "The distinguished guest your mansion sent to pick up in a sedan chair is using our young master's name to deceive us...but the city lord not only doesn't punish her, but instead treats her as a guest of honor. What does this mean?"
Wu Qinzhi felt a chill down his spine when he heard this, and cold sweat broke out on his body. His eyes suddenly widened and he looked at the female cultivator in disbelief.
"You...you said she's not someone who seeks pleasure?"
The female cultivator raised her eyebrows and said with disdain, "Is she worthy? What? The City Lord actually thought that the audacious woman was the young master's woman?
If they were the young master's men, how could they possibly damage his reputation in public to make money?
If she is the young master's person, has the city lord seen her with a token?
On what basis does the city lord know that this shameless woman is the young master's woman?
