Chapter 205: A Magnificent Banquet (2)

Everyone of a certain social standing attended the Thirteenth Prince’s birthday banquet to offer their blessings. Many luxurious horse carriages parked outside the palace, as ornately dressed well-wishers gathered in groups of twos and threes in conversation.

Ji Fengyan alighted from her horse carriage, her simple garb making her a sharp contrast from those gown-wearing ladies with their exquisitely made-up faces. Standing right where the glow of the moon intersected with light from the lamps, Ji Fengyan eyed the lofty palace before her. She raised her hand and scratched the nervous little bat with her fingertips.

“Qingshang, you have arrived?” A splendidly dressed young lady spied Ji Qingshang’s profile and headed smilingly toward her.

With a similarly pleasant expression, Ji Qingshang exchanged some small talk with the young lady, their attention subconsciously drawn toward Ji Fengyan’s direction.

“Qingshang, isn’t that your family’s new Terminator? How come she looks like that…” Ning Beier frowned a little while looking at Ji Fengyan, who at best could be described as fresh-looking. Ning Beier’s critical gaze scrutinized Ji Fengyan’s skinny and pet.i.te figure.

“That’s her.” Ji Qingshang twisted the corners of her lips.

Ning Beier wrinkled her nose. “I don’t know what Grandfather Ji is thinking. Brother Mubai is obviously better suited to be the Terminator.”

“We have no say in this at all. She s.n.a.t.c.hed away that honor based solely on the fact that she is Fifth Uncle’s daughter.” Ji Qingshang snorted derisively. “Forget it, don’t bother about her. Let’s enter first—I heard that Grand Tutor will also be here tonight.”

Eyes sparking as she said this, Ji Qingshang led Ning Beier through the grand doors of the palace.

Entirely ignored by everyone, Ji Fengyan only continued to gaze upon the magnificent palace. Her eyes held a barely perceptible… glowing spark!
