Chapter 25 The Yu Family Banquet: A Gathering of Powerful Figures (Revised)



For the past week, the sounds of hammering, demolition, and construction have been constant in the Mirror Flower Water Moon area.

It wasn't that no one was curious and came over to peek.

Strangely, the group could only approach the outer perimeter of the Mirror Flower Water Moon entrance.

Anyone who wants to enter the illusory world and take a look is absolutely forbidden.

It crashed headfirst into the invisible barrier and was blocked from entering.

Yu Weilan, along with Old Master Yu and Madam Yu, came over to the door out of curiosity after hearing this.

After discovering that even with their strength and abilities, they couldn't break through the barrier here, they left happily.

They didn't even bother to ask Jin Shangyue about the matter, completely adopting a laissez-faire attitude.

This caused Xue Yirou, Yu Chengchuan, and the others to suffer another heart attack from depression.

Unable to investigate the situation of "Mirror Flower Water Moon" or find Jin Shangyue herself, and with the patriarch and the two elders clearly adopting a hands-off attitude, they could only muster their energy and wait for the banquet to begin.

It will be settled in one go at that time.

They wanted Jin Shangyue to start the banquet with a smile, leave in tears, and become the biggest joke in the capital!

This will make it impossible for her to gain a foothold in this industry!

A country bumpkin with no connections dares to dream of infiltrating the inner circle of the powerful and wealthy in the capital. She's utterly shameless and doesn't even realize that a wild village girl like her doesn't deserve it!

On the day of the banquet, all the noble families and even members of the royal family in the capital of the Dragon Martial Empire were invited to attend the grand banquet prepared by the Yu family for their newly found daughter, Jin Shangyue.

From nine o'clock in the morning, the Yu family's house was bustling with activity, with guests coming and going in an endless stream.

Luxury flying cars flew along the overhead tracks and came to a stop at the outermost outdoor parking area of ​​the Yu family's residence.

Jin Shangyue was too lazy to come to the door to deal with the guests, because she knew that the highlight of the banquet would be during the event itself.

The old man and the old woman did not force Jin Shangyue.

He truly kept his promise to Jin Shangyue, not forcing her to do anything and giving her enough freedom.

Moreover, as the main character of today's banquet, it makes perfect sense for Jin Shangyue to be reserved for the end and make her appearance when the banquet officially begins.

Except for Jin Shangyue, all the direct descendants of the Yu family gathered at the airport to receive guests.

Song Mingying, accompanied by her two daughters-in-law, greeted the guests with a gentle smile, moving with ease among the other matriarchs.

In Yu Weilan's generation, only his eldest son Yu Weilan, his second son Yu Changyu, and his third daughter Yu Changyan have gotten married.

Therefore, for such social occasions, Song Mingying only has two daughters-in-law to bring along for the time being.

When someone asked about Jin Shangyue, Song Mingying smiled lovingly and said, "My Yueyue is the star of the day. Her grandfather and I both told her to make her appearance last."

"Once all the guests have arrived, we can introduce them to everyone at once."

Her face was full of affection for Jin Shangyue, and it was clear to everyone that she truly loved this granddaughter she had just found.

Xue Yirou stood to the side with a forced smile.

Even though she tried her best to disguise it, her stiff expression still made it obvious that something was wrong.

After all, an elderly lady like Song Mingying receives guests who are all of the same caliber as herself.

They were all ladies of high status, or royal consorts, and each of them was shrewd enough to see that something was amiss at a glance.

The ladies exchanged glances discreetly, their eyes quickly conveying gossip.

They all smiled and agreed, exchanging pleasantries in a wonderful atmosphere.

On the other side, Yu Tiancang and other direct descendants of the Yu family were also greeting the younger generation of guests.

Yu Shiwei's close friends immediately surrounded her with concern upon her arrival.

"Weiwei, are you alright?"

"Weiwei, is that new student easy to get along with? Has he bullied you?"

"Weiwei, what's going on in your family? Why did you throw such a grand banquet for that new girl you found? Didn't you think about your feelings at all?!"

...

Faced with her friends' concern and indignation, Yu Shiwei smiled gracefully and calmly, offering gentle and soft words of comfort.

“I’m fine. She’s been staying at Xuguang Courtyard since she came back last month and hasn’t come out. Why would she make things difficult for me?”

"What! Xuguangyuan? You mean that biggest tourist attraction in your area? The one where you hold all the big banquets?"

Chang Xiling exclaimed incredulously, then said indignantly, "Why!"

"That Xuguang Courtyard occupies a much larger area, more than three times the size of your Xiwei Courtyard. Isn't this blatant bullying?"

Li Xiao, standing nearby, chimed in, "That's right! Even if Weiwei isn't a biological child of the Yu family, she still grew up in the Yu family and was pampered for nineteen years."

"Besides, even if you're not the real daughter of the Yu family, you're still the real daughter of the Yan family. Your status and background are in no way inferior to the Yu family! Why should that country bumpkin from a remote and backward country, that emotionless outsider, be superior to you!"

Lu Zhu narrowed her fox-like eyes and said calmly, "You've only been back for a week, and you've already been given such a big show of force, practically putting pressure on your head."

"We have to help you get back at her today, otherwise she will only go further and further, and you will probably have no place in the Yu family anymore."

“Lu Zhu is right,” Qi Lili agreed, “We must get our revenge.”

"Since the head of the Yu family values ​​her so much, we probably don't have many opportunities to deal with her on ordinary days. Today is an excellent opportunity."

Lan Hu's eyes lit up, eager to try: "You mean you want to propose a bet in public and crush her using legitimate methods?"
