Pursing her lips, Du Feixuan took Xiao Manluo's arm and walked into the alley.
Along the way, the men and women I saw were people I had either seen on TV or in magazines that featured profiles of people I met.
At this moment, these people were walking in this alley and didn't even dare to speak too loudly.
Each of their faces was gentle and humble.
Every time Du Feixuan opened her mouth in surprise, Xiao Manluo would pat her arm, and then she would suddenly close it.
The Qin family is a time-honored family in the imperial capital and is considered one of the top wealthy families.
Although Xiao Manluo married into a wealthy family and became Mrs. Cheng, there is still a huge gap between a wealthy family and a top wealthy family.
For example, the Cheng family and the Qin family.
Today is Mr. Qin's birthday. Xiao Manluo was able to get an invitation. I don't know how much thought and favors she put in to get it.
Thinking of the purpose of coming here today, Xiao Manluo couldn't help but remind Du Feixuan again, "The people who can enter this door today are all from the top wealthy circles in the imperial capital. You are not allowed to talk nonsense."
"Aunt, I know!"
Her eyes kept falling on those handsome single men. Du Feixuan let go of her hands, straightened her back, and walked forward in small steps.
Xiao Manluo's lips curved slightly.
After passing through the quaint black gate, the house suddenly felt lively and bustling.
Pavilions, towers, bridges and flowing water.
This extremely elegant house exudes exquisiteness and heritage in every detail.
The front hall of the large mansion with five courtyards serves as the reception area for today, checking all the guests' invitations and registering the birthday gifts sent by each family.
When it was their turn, Du Feixuan was stunned.
On the side, Xiao Manluo looked at the butler with a smile, "Butler Qin, our birthday gift will arrive soon."
I mean, it's a big piece.
Butler Qin hesitated for a moment.
The Qin family’s children include both businessmen and politicians.
If it's a big item, let's not talk about whether to accept it or not, just getting it in and out is a hassle.
"Don't worry, Steward Qin. If Mr. Qin doesn't like it, I will definitely take it away and won't cause you any trouble."
Xiao Manluo said with a smile.
If the old man takes a look at it personally, there will be nothing much to say.
Butler Qin registered the information truthfully and invited Xiao Manluo and Du Feixuan into the backyard.
At a glance, the 500-square-meter banquet hall is filled with the capital's prominent figures.
If he had been able to keep his composure before entering the door, he would have advised Du Feixuan to behave elegantly and calmly.
So at this moment, Xiao Manluo has become almost the same as Du Feixuan just now.
The noble ladies around her were those whom she had tried her best to make friends with but to no avail.
Unexpectedly, I saw them all at Mr. Qin’s birthday party today.
"That's Madam Chen... The one wearing the purple cheongsam is Madam Wang from Zhiyuan Industrial..."
Whispering the introduction, seeing that Du Feixuan's mind was somewhere else, Xiao Manluo simply followed her.
"Hello, Madam Ning..."
Seeing a familiar face from afar, Xiao Manluo went to greet him with a smile.
Du Feixuan took a glass of champagne and stood far away in front of the window.
Before she could decide which young man to approach, when she turned around, she saw a dark shadow disappear at the end of the corridor.
A figure emerged in her mind and Du Feixuan widened her eyes.
Impossible! She must have seen it wrong!
I put down the champagne and wanted to chase after him, but the banquet hall suddenly became lively.
