"Are you all ready?" Yuna, wearing a bright red dress with diamonds, sat on a chair and asked the old housekeeper.
"Miss, everything is ready. Please move over and host the banquet to begin." The old housekeeper Abby bowed respectfully and answered.
The two maids carefully held the skirts of the dress and followed Yuna. The walkway leading to the hall was covered with a red carpet. At the corner, Prinz was waiting. Today, it is the Claire family
The biggest celebration, as the incoming patriarch and Yuna’s father, Prinz is now filled with pride.
Yuna walked to her father calmly, took Prinz's arm, and the father and daughter looked at each other, smiled, and walked forward.
At this time, the hall was crowded. All the guests who came to the banquet gathered in twos and threes, waiting for the arrival of the host.
Of course Zhou Yunfei was no exception, and the third prince appeared beside him.
The third prince came today not as a prince, but as a relative of Yuna's cousin.
This also just alleviated Zhou Yunfei's dilemma, otherwise, Zhou Yunfei would definitely have more than just these people around him.
The third prince also specially stayed by Zhou Yunfei's side and introduced many people present to him. Of course, there were many upper-level rumors and gossips, and the third prince was also willing to inform Zhou Yunfei.
"Mr. Earl, that is the pride of the Lancelot family, Pat Lancelot." The third prince pointed to an extraordinary-looking man wearing a tight-fitting dress and introduced.
Zhou Yunfei nodded. He had met this Mr. Pat from a distance at the foot of Mok City. As the leader of the slave escort team at that time, Zhou Yunfei still had some impression of him.
Pat, who had been secretly observing Zhou Yunfei, noticed that Zhou Yunfei was looking at him, so he nodded slightly and gave a gesture with a smile.
Since the banquet has not officially started yet, many chatting nobles like to introduce each other and bring the relationship closer. Good social interaction is also a link that a noble must master. Zhou Yunfei's current status can already ignore many small and medium-sized families, but
But he would never do this. Of course, many nobles saw the third prince accompanying Zhou Yunfei, and this tacit hint also made many people retreat. Unless you reach a certain level of the circle, you cannot blend in.
of.
Just like the people surrounding Zhou Yunfei now, everyone is from one of the top families in the empire.
Pat Lancelot apologized to the people around him and walked near Zhou Yunfei's circle.
"Hello, I am the second heir of the Lancelot family, Pat Lancelot. It is a great honor for Pat to meet the respected Lord of Dragon City and Earl of the Empire here."
Zhou Yunfei caressed his chest slightly in greeting and said, "I'm glad to receive your compliment."
The third prince smiled and took a few steps away, handed the seat to Pat, who had just arrived, and started a cordial conversation with a nobleman behind him.
"Your Majesty, Earl, Pat is very familiar with your lord. Especially the battle in Mok City last year, Pat has been fascinated by it for a long time. It is a pity that he could not witness that great victory."
"Thank you for your praise. It was indeed a great victory. The Phantom Knights led by you are also an army I have always admired. A quick glance at Mok City that day was very impressive!" Zhou Yunfei accepted it calmly.
Pat's compliment is a cultural difference between the two continents. In the past, Zhou Yunfei would definitely be humble, but in the Ross continent, your modesty means that the person who compliments you has no vision, which is a very impolite thing.
So if someone praises you, just accept it calmly.
When Pat saw Zhou Yunfei mentioning the Phantom Knights, a proud and proud expression appeared on his face. As the deputy leader, his love for his own Knights was absolute! Obviously, Zhou Yunfei's boast hit him hard.
Pat's x point, and then Pat began to talk about the various battles the Knights had experienced.
Zhou Yunfei pretended to be attracted all the time, but in fact his mind had already wandered to nowhere.
While everyone was waiting, the band outside the door started playing music. Suddenly, everyone in the banquet hall closed their mouths and subconsciously adjusted their clothes.
The door slowly opened to the sound of music, and with the sunshine behind her, Yuna held her father Prinz's arm and walked into the hall.
She was dressed in a dress, with her long skirt trailing on the carpet, a thin gauze covering her bare shoulders, and her slender hands tightly wrapped in white gloves. Her long golden hair was combed behind her head.
The gemstone necklace around her neck dazzled people's eyes under the shining light.
Zhou Yunfei looked at Yuna walking slowly on the red carpet, especially when Yuna's eyes swept across the crowd and finally landed on Zhou Yunfei, he felt that his heart was filled with a sense of happiness. To put it simply, Zhou Yunfei was smiling now
It's like a flower.
Soon, Yuna stepped onto the high platform that was built. Prinz St. Clair took a few steps back and focused all the center of the venue on Yuna who was standing on the stage.
Yuna looked around at the people on the stage, gently lifted the hem of her skirt with both hands, bent her knees slightly, and made a slight lady's bow.
"Yona St. Clair, welcome everyone to come to the family ceremony. I have received your blessings. I hope you can spend a good time here." After saying that, the maids who had been preparing for a long time all around said,
All kinds of wine and delicacies were served.
This is a semi-formal cocktail party, somewhat similar to a buffet, except that no one will just focus on eating. It is mainly to provide a platform for everyone to communicate.
Of course, dancing is essential, and the way of dancing on the Ross continent is no different from that on Earth. However, as the master, Yuna is obliged to be the first lead dancer. Only after the master starts dancing for half a dance, the rest of the people will join together.
And dance.
Yuna gave Zhou Yunfei an apologetic look, and she chose her father as the first backup dancer. After taking off the skirt, Yuna and her father stepped onto the dance floor with slim hands.
The beautiful waltz and the young beauties flying on the dance floor attracted the attention of many male nobles around, deeply attracting them.
After half the song, people walked into the pool one after another, and for a while butterflies danced in the field.
Zhou Yunfei stayed alone on the sidelines, enjoying the beautiful music. He picked up the tall silver cup in his hand and took a sip of the slightly bitter red wine.
"Sir, can you ask me to dance?" A clear and beautiful sound sounded in his ears.
Turning around, he saw a woman looking at Zhou Yunfei. She had slightly fluffy reddish-brown hair and green eyes. The gorgeous dress and the exposed skin made people wonder.
"Of course, it's probably every man's dream to invite a beautiful woman like you to dance with you."
Zhou Yunfei put down the wine glass in his hand and made an invitation gesture. The woman stretched out her hand and the two slowly walked into the venue.
The third prince, who had been paying attention to everyone, twitched at the corner of his eye when he saw the woman dancing with Zhou Yunfei, "Damn it, why is that woman with him! Don't let your cousin see her, God bless you
.”
However, it was obvious that the third prince's prayer had no effect. When the song ended, Yuna naturally turned around to look for Zhou Yunfei. Then she saw the two people hugging each other, and her expressions were so wonderful in an instant!
And our classmate Zhou Yunfei is hugging that woman. The reason is very simple and bloody.
When the dance was about to end, the beauty's legs suddenly gave way, and Zhou Yunfei had no choice but to hug the beauty, and the two of them maintained an ambiguous posture in the eyes of others.
Yuna let go of her father's hand, raised the skirt around her legs with both hands, and walked towards Zhou Yunfei, who was supporting the beautiful woman.
When the third prince saw that his cousin had discovered it, he sighed and muttered, "It seems that conflict is inevitable."
Obviously, all the guests around him dispersed when they saw this. They all knew about the entanglement between the two beauties. Zhou Yunfei was helping the woman out of the dance floor, but he was stopped by Yuna.
Seeing the two beauties looking at each other with hostility for no apparent reason, Zhou Yunfei felt that he seemed to have fallen into a terrible trap.
"Cecilia, what are you doing!" Yuna completely ignored her ladylike attitude, pointed directly at the woman who was still leaning on Zhou Yunfei, and asked loudly.
The woman named Cecilia leaned against Zhou Yunfei and deliberately squeezed into his arms.
Those elastic weapons made Zhou Yunfei a little confused. However, following Yuna's next words, the people around who were watching the show seemed to have been cast a restraining magic.
"Asshole! Cecilia, if you don't let go, what do you want to do to my fiancé?"
"Kakaka!" Many people's jaws fell to the ground and shattered at the words Yuna blurted out.
Cecilia grabbed Zhou Yunfei's arm tightly as if to demonstrate and refused to let go, "Huh, he's just your fiancé. Even if he really becomes your husband, it's not like he can't be snatched away from you!"
The people around him exploded instantly, "What? Didn't you hear just now? The two most powerful forces in the north have united!"
"Oh my god, isn't it a foregone conclusion that the third prince will ascend the throne?"
"It seems that the family's next policy will change soon. Those who understand the current affairs are heroes!"
·············
Yuna's words were like a bomb that suddenly fell into the calm lake water, causing huge waves in an instant.
The third prince smiled and listened to the whispers around him. He elegantly raised the wine glass in his hand and saluted someone who was still stiff. "Today's wine is particularly mellow!"
Pat Lancelot shook the wine glass in his hand expressionlessly, with unpredictable thoughts flashing in his slightly narrowed eyes.
From today on, the empire's situation will undergo earth-shaking changes. I'm afraid no one present can predict what kind of impact this change will have.
But one thing is now certain, the rumors of someone being lecherous are really true.
