This banquet marks the return of Xu Ke, so Housekeeper Zhao decorated the hall with extreme luxury and extravagance. Coupled with the initial design of the Xu Mansion, it completely exudes a royal flair. Anyone who doesn't know better might think they've traveled through time to Europe last century upon entering.
"Xu Ke really made a big fuss with his return this time." Yang Rongrong whispered, wearing a champagne-colored cocktail dress, arm in arm with Chu Lian.
"Only people who lack confidence show off their strength in such a vulgar way." Chu Lian remarked sourly, looking at the lavishly decorated hall.
Yang Rongrong quietly sighed in her heart at her friend's fallen face; she knew what Chu Lian was jealous about. Last month, the Lian Family also held a gathering, a birthday party for Lian Xuan. Even though the whole banquet was grand and looked exceptionally splendid, it was still a notch below today's Xu Family banquet. No wonder Chu Lian was uncomfortable.
