Chapter 58: Changing Face
After what happened to Yu Anning, the subsequent banquets were actually not very interesting.
Rong Yiyi sat in the main seat and at first really wanted to find two topics to chat with everyone, but later she gave up.
She has always been arrogant and disdains to pretend to chat and laugh with these people. Besides, the people below her really admire her intelligence.
So soon, everyone dispersed.
When everyone said goodbye to each other and walked out one after another, they met a few subordinates who were helping Shu Wan move the piano back to the house. They bumped into them at the door. Shu Wan felt that she couldn't ask the guests to make way for her, so she asked Feng Ling and others to put the piano aside and move it back after these ladies and ladies left.
This led to a somewhat embarrassing situation for her.
First, two young ladies couldn't help asking Shu Wan about it after seeing this new thing, and Shu Wan had to tell them that it was a piano.
Before the two young ladies could exclaim, Cai Jingshu, who was a step slower than them, rushed over immediately after hearing it.
"I've heard of it. My father told me yesterday that the envoy from Blackwater City who went to the Crescent Kingdom brought back a unique treasure in the world. It was a gift from the Crescent Emperor to the city lord. I guess this is it." She praised, and reached out to touch the piano gently, which made people laugh for some reason. "Madam, did the city lord give it to you?" She turned her head and asked Shu Wan with her hands still on the piano.
"Ah... you can say that!" In front of so many people, Shu Wan felt as if no matter how she answered, it would be like showing off, so she answered more subtly, but she didn't know why, she still felt a little embarrassed, everyone was looking at her.
More people came out one after another, with too many envious, jealous and hateful looks!
Why is she so inexplicably a little arrogant...? "Oh my god, who said before that the city lord was not good to his wife? Is he blind?" Someone exclaimed, "Such a priceless treasure can be given away at will. This honor is not something that everyone can have?"
The people around him echoed.
Shu Wan: ...
She wanted to find a place to crawl into.
She took a step back, and then naturally stepped on a foot!
When she turned her head to look, there was no one else but Rong Chen.
"You...I..." Shu Wan wanted to say something, but his words were incoherent.
"Feng Ling, see the guests off and move the things in." Rong Chen reached out and grabbed Shu Wan's arm and walked inside, giving orders at the same time.
"Yes, I obey your command." Feng Ling bowed quickly to accept the order.
Although there were several layers of cloth between them, Shu Wan felt that Rong Chen's hand was like fire, burning her arm all the way to her face.
She lowered her head and let Rong Chen pull her inside, praying in her heart that they would go faster and faster.
Li left relatively late, but she also got a general idea of what happened from the exclamations that were passed on by word of mouth. So when she looked at Shu Wan with an aunt's smile on her face and her eyes were full of relief, Shu Wan was almost in tears.
I'd rather not explain it, because this matter cannot be explained anyhow!
Normally, there were many people who flattered Li, and now it was more lively than ever before in front of her. Everyone vied with each other to say nice things just to please her.
If she could establish a good relationship with Mrs. Li, with her current status and position, I wonder how many opportunities she could gain for her husband and son at home.
If you have a daughter at home, with this kind of relationship, are you still worried about not being able to find a good husband? Of course, Shu Wan didn't know these things, because she had already returned to her yard in a daze.
"You...what do you mean today?" Even if Shu Wan was slow-witted, she should have noticed that Rong Chen's behavior today was a little abnormal, so she lowered her head and asked hesitantly.
"What do you think I mean?" Rong Chen liked her shy and angry look, his tone unconsciously became low and hoarse, with a bit of charm.
"If you are here to prove to everyone today that you are not ignoring me as the rumors say, then I know!" Shu Wan wanted to nip some bad ideas in the bud. "In the future, I will cooperate with you in front of outsiders."
Almost in an instant, Rong Chen, who had just had a tender and affectionate look on his face, turned face dark, and his aura changed drastically. The speed at which his expression changed was astonishing.
