Shui Qinan did not say anything. Since they all believed that those Cangyue remnants had already appeared, then they would definitely not let this piece of Sherry City go. It's just that the news had not spread out yet;

A few days later, at the Xu's banquet.

As the grandson of the Protector of the Kingdom, as well as the target of the girls' admiration, Nangong Jin was naturally invited. Nangong Jin had casually asked Shui Qinan if he wanted to go. Based on the grudge between Shui Qinan and the Xu, he thought that Shui Qinan would immediately reject him. He didn't expect that Shui Qinan would actually agree to go.

”Big brother Nangong, why don't you bring me along?” Yan Waner appeared in time and looked at Nangong Jin gently, her eyes filled with desire. A pitiful and weak girl like her was not someone a man would have the heart to reject.

If it was before, Nangong Jin would have agreed to it. But now, his state of mind was different, he would not be together with Yan Waner, so he did not give her any hope. Nangong Jin said estranged: ”With the Yan family's snobbery, why didn't they receive the invitation? I don't think I need to bring them.”

”Isn't Miss Yan on good terms with the Xu? Could it be that Xu did not invite you? ” Yan Waner's face paled when she thought about it. Naturally, she had received it, but she wanted Nangong Jin to appear with her in the National Duke's Palace. Let everyone know that Nangong Jin is hers!

This damned Shui Qinan, what does she mean by have a good relationship with Xu?!

”Big brother Nangong.” Yan Waner looked at Nangong Jin with a wronged expression, as if she thought that Nangong Jin had done something huge. Yan Waner looked at Nangong Jin with teary eyes and said: ”In the past, big brother Nan Gong would bring Wan Er along. Now that big brother Nan Gong has a Sister Shui, don't tell me you dislike Wan Er?”

”Nangong Jin, don't go overboard!” Ouyang De just so happened to hear it, that the little junior sister asked Nangong Jin to bring her along, was it that difficult to do it? Nangong Jin actually rejected her offer. How could the little junior possibly be compared to an outsider in Nangong Jin's heart?

Initially, Ouyang De didn't think much of going to a banquet like the Xu, but seeing Yan Waner like this, he walked forward and embraced Yan Waner, protecting her within his embrace as he gently said: ”He won't accompany you. Eldest senior brother will.”

Yan Waner never thought that Ouyang De would hold her, she was so frightened that she immediately broke free from Ouyang De's embrace. He subconsciously looked at Nangong Jin, but he did not see any displeasure on his face.

”Alright, Big Senior, then you accompany Wan Er.” Since Nangong Jin was unwilling to bring her along, she had to find a way out for himself.

Yan Waner watched in jealousy as Nangong Jin and Shui Qinan walked further and further away. Originally, the person who walked beside Nangong Jin should have been her, but everything had changed because of Shui Qinan!

Shui Qinan, Nangong Jin and Ouyang De arrived at the National Duke Palace one after the other. Xu was very displeased to see Shui Qinan here too, she remembered that she did not send an invitation card to Shui Qinan.

Xu looked at Nangong Jin with unfriendly eyes and said: ”May I know who this person beside Young Noble Nan Gong is?”

”It's a friend of mine. She was bored at the mansion and coincidentally held a banquet there, so I brought her along with me.” Nangong Jin said with a gentle smile, the old saying goes, he extended his hand to stop the smiling man, Nangong Jin's face was full of smiles, Xu did not know what to say, and could only bitterly step aside.

Shui Qinan's cold gaze swept between Xu and Yan Waner as she indifferently walked past him. Zhu Er followed closely behind Shui Qinan, and even intentionally bumped into Xu twice.

Xu snorted and went to greet other people. Today was a good day for her to show off, with so many people from National Duke's residence watching her every move closely, she couldn't start a conflict with Shui Qinan and leave a laughing stock for others.
