C192 Who Is the Female Companion?
After Anlor finished his sentence, he remained silent. He walked straight into the hotel.
Guan Ce and Chang Ru looked at each other, frowned, and then followed. This large-scale evening banquet for the Wealthy Class was completely a public banquet. It was not like the palace banquet where how many tables had to be set up and how many people were there. And these banquets were to place some food, dishes, fruits, even wine and so on in every corner of the hall. If you wanted to eat or drink, you could go there by yourself.
Thus, in this banquet. It was more like a social gathering.
Many of the rich and powerful officials, and even noble young masters and ladies, had met at this banquet.
Even within the circle of aristocrats, this kind of banquet was also known as the Wealthy Class. Young masters and young mistresses, socializing between big shots, and so on.
"In short, there is only one main character at this banquet. However, most people's goal is not to become friends with the main character at the banquet, but to get to know more important people." How about it? Do you want to walk around? Was this banquet the best place to get to know important figures? And such a banquet is rarely held. "
In the corner, there was a long sofa with fruits and some food in front of it. Ye Feii and Asura were both sitting on the sofa.
Both of them appeared unfamiliar at this banquet.
Ye Feii came from the military and had never left the army, even though he had befriended any of the empire's grandmothers. Thus, even though he was the main character of the banquet today, no one recognized him.
"No need. In fact, I don't like it? Don't you find it strange? " Ye Feii took a sip of his wine. He said very casually.
People were coming and going in front of his eyes. There were aristocratic ladies dressed beautifully. There were also young masters from various families. Each and every one of them was dressed quite handsomely as they chatted with the beautiful ladies. Even the merchants of the Chamber of Commerce and the masters of the Wealthy Class were discussing amongst themselves.
"Up to you! "Then I'll take a walk around first." The Shura rolled his eyes and stood up. He walked into the crowd.
Ye Feii did not want to hide the fact that the Shura was the Emperor's man. At this time, when Ye Feii came, she naturally had a mission, which was to report to him.
However, not long after the Shura left. Unknowingly, when Ye Feii was drinking, the sofa beside him became soft and he sat down beside himself. There was a faint fragrance coming from it. Ye Feii knew it must be a woman. However, Ye Feii didn't pay any attention to it. He didn't even move his head as he continued drinking.
The wine at the banquet was a kind of wine and it tasted very good. Ye Feii liked it the moment he drank it.
"Do you like this wine? I'll drink with you? " The woman beside him interrupted Ye Feii, picked up the bottle of wine, and poured herself a glass.
Ye Feii didn't notice it at first, but after he heard that voice. His entire body jolted. He turned his surprised gaze over.
The young girl next to him was about 15 or 16 years old. She had beautiful eyebrows, a cute little face, clear and beautiful eyes, and was dressed in a green ceremonial dress. She even had a happy smile on her face.
"Lian'er?"
Ye Feii looked at the girl in surprise. This girl was the one that he had saved countless times from the south, Lian'er.
"Why are you here?" Ye Feii said in surprise.
"Hehe!" My father was a senior official in the imperial court and was much bigger than Qin Guangchao and Qin Mu. Do you think I'm qualified to come? " Lian'er smiled cutely. The difference from before was that she was much more cheerful now. She was no longer as gentle as she used to be, with a face that was always filled with tears and gentleness.
Ye Feii did not doubt Qin Guangchao's respect for Lian'er. He had suspected Lian'er of being the child of some powerful figure. Now that she had appeared in this banquet, it wasn't strange for her to be here.
Ye Feii smiled and nodded. Then she raised her glass and clinked it against Lian'er's. He continued to drink.
"Brother Ye, it's you. Why are you participating in the Wealthy Class dinner as well? This sort of banquet is not something that ordinary people can attend? "
Lian'er rolled her eyes. She knew Ye Feii wouldn't talk. If you didn't ask him, he definitely wouldn't talk.
Ye Feii was silent for a while, put down the glass and said with a smile, "One of my friends is a general. Thus … He brought me, too. "
"Oh? General, Brother Ye, your friend is amazing. He must be very powerful! " Lian'er's eyes lit up with a look of envy.
"It's not bad!" Ye Feii walked over casually. Since Lian'er did not know his identity, there was no need for him to say anything.
"Right, Brother Ye, you must have joined the army! If there was a soldier as powerful as Brother Ye in the army, the army's strength would definitely increase by many times. " Lian'er's eyes were bright and her face was filled with anticipation.
Lian'er was more talkative than before, this was Ye Feii's only conclusion. But towards this cute and kind girl, Ye Feii could only bitterly smile and casually pass by her.2
Just as Ye Feii and Lian'er were talking animatedly, Shura walked over. She saw a girl talking and laughing beside Ye Feii. Her face, which originally had a trace of a smile on it, instantly collapsed.
"Humph!" Cough, cough! "
He came to Ye Feii and Lian'er's side and interrupted them with a few coughs.
Ye Feii and Lian'er looked at Asura almost at the same time. Especially when the two of them thought that they were both beauties and didn't give in to each other. There are always sparks.
Whether it was the Shura's gaze or Lian'er's gaze, both flashed a trace of displeasure and hostility.
"Brother Ye, this lady is …" A pitiful look appeared in Lian'er's eyes. She didn't know why, but this woman's gaze made Lian'er's heart ache.
But just as Ye Feii was about to explain, the Shura explained with a frown, "I am Ye Feii's companion! Since you are called Brother Ye of Ye Feii, hmm, you must be Ye Feii's sister! Hehe, little sister is very happy to meet you. My name is Asura. " These words were obviously a bit sarcastic, just like how a wife introduced herself when she saw her husband walking together with a woman.
"Brother Ye …" Lian'er was not stupid. She felt something was wrong with the atmosphere. Her watery eyes looked pleadingly at Ye Feii. Her small mouth was pursed, ready to cry at any moment.
"Lian'er, don't misunderstand. Since I came to this banquet today, I was temporarily unable to find a companion. That's why I came to find Asura. " Ye Feii smiled and comforted her, "Alright, you can go back to your work now. The Shura has something important to talk to me about. "
Hearing this explanation, Lian'er's heart eased up a lot. Although he knew this was an excuse, a man making excuses for a woman meant that he still cared about her in his heart. Therefore, Lian'er was very satisfied.
"Brother Ye, go and busy yourself!" Lian'er is waiting for you outside. " Lian'er pursed her lips. Her watery eyes begged Ye Feii with determination.
"Go!" Ye Feii waved to Lian'er, who was reluctant to part, and sent her off. He then looked at Asura.
Unexpectedly, the Shura's face fell, and his small mouth curled up. The head turned to the side in annoyance.
Why did he say that he was his girlfriend? But this bastard, when he was with other women, didn't explain himself, instead of that woman, what was this?
This was simply too much! The Shura felt that he hated Ye Feii more and more, he was obviously looking down on everyone else. Don't take yourself seriously.
"Let's go!" It's not good for people to wait too long. " Ye Feii regained some color on his face. He brushed past the Shura and walked over.
The Shura was startled. His face turned red as he stood on the spot. Although Ye Feii didn't say everything, but how could she not know what Ye Feii meant?
"Ye Feii, stop right there? What the hell do you mean? Am I that kind of person in your eyes? " The Shura turned around and shouted angrily at Ye Feii's back.
He clearly meant that she had walked away. To tell the Emperor that he was coming. The Shura admitted that she had indeed gone to inform the higher-ups. However... Ye Feii's attitude and tone. The Shura couldn't take it at all.
After being yelled at by her, many of the surrounding Wealthy Class people turned their gazes towards the two. Ye Feii frowned, he was someone who did not like to beat around the bush. Straight to the point. But he didn't think that his words would cause such a huge reaction from the Shura.
"Don't make a fool of yourself here, let's go!" Ye Feii didn't waste any time with the Shura and directly pulled her hand and walked forward.
Although the Shura tried his best to resist and tried to get away from Ye Feii's hand, Ye Feii held it very tightly. After struggling for a while, seeing that there was no effect, Xiu Rome returned to its normal state, holding Ye Feii's wrist. However, when he tried to pull her up, his hand fiercely squeezed Ye Feii's waist for a long time. Only after feeling pain in his hand did he loosen his grip.
Ye Feii did not care about the Asura's nonsense. Although this girl was usually very cold, Ye Feii could tell that it wasn't because she had a cold nature. It was because she rarely came into contact with people and created a personality for herself. Now that the two of them had been in contact for such a long time, the Shura actually revealed the nature of a young girl in front of him. Under the Shura's guidance, the two of them turned into an alley in the hall and walked towards the second floor. This place was very strict. Even during banquets, there were patrolling guards in plain clothes walking around on the narrow streets.
It was obvious that these guards were very familiar with Asura. The Shura led Ye Feii to the second floor, but no one stopped him.
After going up to the second floor, it was not as strict as Ye Feii had imagined. It was almost the same as the first floor. People could be seen everywhere chatting while holding wine glasses. There were even some attendants who walked around carrying food.
"Don't underestimate the people on the second floor. These are the capital's officials. Furthermore, they all had lofty statuses, and their ranks were all at least fourth rank and above. Even though it was a free feast. But there are still different levels. " The Shura's tiny voice interrupted Ye Feii's thoughts. At this moment, he finally understood why the guards acted so majestically when they were going upstairs. Their goal was also to stop those lower status officials and rich aristocrats.
"There's quite a lot of people for this banquet. There's over a hundred people on the first floor. There's at least over a hundred people here!" Ye Feii looked over. Whether it was civil officials, military officers or other people, they were all gathered together. It could even be seen that there were some famous figures of high status.
If one were to say that the people downstairs gave off an official and elegant feeling, then the people on the second floor gave off an air of superiority.
