Chapter 14: Stunning at the Banquet
Grand Hyatt Ballroom.
The news that the Nie family had found their eldest granddaughter who had been stranded away quickly spread among the celebrity and aristocratic circles. Almost everyone who received an invitation to the welcome dinner came to attend the dinner.
It's not just for Mr. Nie's sake, but more importantly, they are very curious about what this found granddaughter of the Nie family looks like and whether she is presentable!
In the banquet hall, Mr. Nie, dressed in a handmade Tang suit, looked radiant, and his father, who was accompanying him, was also in high spirits.
"Congratulations, Mr. Nie. I heard that your eldest granddaughter has been found. You look so energetic. You're really in high spirits when you're so happy..."
"That's right. Now that Elder Nie has found his eldest granddaughter, he'll have a great helper in his business..."
Elder Nie smiled and nodded repeatedly. Someone also asked curiously, "Elder Nie, President Nie, why hasn't Miss Nie come out yet?"
"It's almost there..." Father Nie said with a smile. He was just about to find someone to urge A Yao to come out, but he heard a cry of surprise from not far away.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Nie Yao slowly appearing in the banquet hall wearing a purple haute couture dress from V.
Her hair, which she usually tied into a ponytail, was now up and slightly curled, falling on her shoulders. The butterfly design on her dress complemented each other and made her look a little more playful.
But her slightly furrowed brows and the obvious impatience on her face were completely out of place with the smile she had at the banquet. She looked like an elf that had fallen into the mortal world...
The guests who were originally holding their glasses of champagne and chatting with each other stopped talking the moment they saw Nie Yao appear. There was inquiry, curiosity and amazement in their eyes when they looked at her.
The wild girl who was said to be wandering around seemed to be quite elegant, not like a crazy and unpresentable wild girl!
The few close friends around Nie Jinxi couldn't believe their eyes and gasped when they saw Nie Yao appear.
"Jinxi, is this your sister who grew up outside? Why does she look so elegant..."
"Yeah, Jinxi, isn't she a wild girl? I thought her skin was very dark, but how come she looks so fair? She's even better maintained than us with the luxury skincare products we use."
Nie Jinxi pursed her lips in displeasure. It was she who suggested this purple dress to her grandfather because she knew that purple dresses were difficult to pull off, and this kind of high-end custom-made one was even more...
As long as the temperament is not good, it will only look ugly and rustic, but she never expected that Nie Yao would look better in it than the model!
Nie Jinxi secretly thought it was a bad idea. Ji Minghuan, who had been standing beside her, couldn't hide his amazement when he saw Nie Yao. He whispered, "It's only been a few days since we last met, and you've become a completely different person. You look like a lady from a wealthy family..."
Nie Jinxi felt uncomfortable and could only agree casually. However, Ji Minghuan was already holding a wine glass and walking towards Nie Yao.
Nie Yao had just sent away a few young men who came to chat with her, and she had already started calculating the time when the banquet would end. She looked up in the banquet hall for a clock, but couldn't find it after searching around.
"What are you looking for?" A male voice came from behind.
"Clock!" Nie Yao answered without hesitation.
"Why are you looking for the clock?" the man asked, trying not to laugh.
"It depends on when the banquet ends..." Nie Yao replied indifferently.
"It's just begun, and you're looking forward to it ending?" Ji Minghuan was almost amused by Nie Yao. Nie Yao was about to say that the party was boring, but turned around and met Ji Minghuan's eyes as he tried to hold back his smile.
