The overall style of the banquet was somewhat Western, with the dinner placed on the tables.

Guests could take whatever they wanted.

This was the first time Su Qingya had attended a banquet of this scale, and she was very reserved.

Clothes make the man, and a saddle makes the horse.

Su Qingya’s beauty was needless to say.

As a genuine rich girl, she was naturally beautiful, and a clever touch of makeup could make her breathtakingly beautiful.

But without suitable clothes to set her off, everyone else at the venue looked more dazzling than her.

Yes.

The situation seemed a bit off.

According to the standard real and fake rich girl plot.

It should be Xu Nian, the fake rich girl, trying to steal the real rich girl’s limelight at the banquet, or making the real rich girl make a fool of herself.

And the result would definitely be the real rich girl’s counterattack and defeat.

If the fake rich girl wanted to steal the limelight, the real rich girl would definitely shine even more, becoming the most dazzling one at the banquet, and then capturing the heart of the male lead.

No matter how much the fake rich girl Xu Nian showed herself off like a peacock, she would only become a stepping stone for the real rich girl.

Or if she wanted to make the real rich girl look bad, the real rich girl would definitely make the fake rich girl look bad instead, to everyone’s satisfaction.

Who knew that reality wasn’t like that.

Now it seemed that any of the invited young ladies shone brighter than the two real and fake rich girls.

Su Qingya herself wasn’t aware of it.

Her only fear was that she was participating in this level of banquet for the first time, and she would instinctively feel afraid of being in a strange environment.

Apart from that, there was nothing else.

She didn’t regret her inappropriate clothing, but was extremely grateful.

“Niannian, look at them, they’re all dressed so gaudily, so revealing. We must never learn from them.”

She even had time to use this to lecture Xu Nian!

“Okay, okay, I know.”

The girls wore dresses, and the boys wore suits.

This was the standard and necessary attire.

Xu Nian didn’t like this kind of occasion, but as the host, she was destined not to be able to hide in the corner.

She and Su Qingya had to stand in front of the public and be scrutinized by everyone’s eyes.

Xu’s mother had given Su Qingya a manuscript earlier, meaning that if Su Qingya could speak freely, she could speak freely during the speech later, but if she couldn’t, she should read according to the manuscript.

After all, this was Su Qingya’s first time, so it was normal to have some preparation.

She just glanced at the manuscript and memorized the contents.

First, Xu Qingshan took the stage to say the opening remarks, and then took the opportunity to introduce today’s protagonist.

“… I am honored to have everyone come to support us. Next, please welcome my daughter Xu Qingya, who has been separated from us for many years, to come to the stage to introduce herself.”

The homecoming banquet was not only to celebrate Su Qingya’s homecoming, but also to introduce Su Qingya to everyone, so that Xu Qingshan could gradually introduce his connections to her.

In other words, if Su Qingya performed well at this banquet and left a good impression on everyone, her future path would be smooth sailing and she would embark on a broad road.

Su Qingya didn’t refute Xu Qingshan’s calling her Xu Qingya on the spot.

According to the situation, that was indeed the case.

When it was time for her part, she went directly to the stage to give a speech.

Her outfit was surprising.

No one would ridicule her outfit at this time. It was basic manners. But Su Qingya’s rating would more or less be reduced a bit.

Su Qingya herself didn’t care about these things. She simply didn’t care. She gave a speech on stage only because it was necessary. Otherwise, she would actually prefer to be with Xu Nian.

Su Qingya read the manuscript very quickly, and her speech was also very fast. She probably wanted to end it sooner and leave the stage sooner.

But as today’s protagonist, it was perfectly normal to be surrounded and chatted with.

As expected, even though Su Qingya’s clothes were inappropriate, many people came to talk to her.

Xu Nian shook her wine glass.

The wine glass contained some red wine.

She didn’t have the habit of drinking. She was just holding the wine glass to play with.

Xu Nian certainly couldn’t stop her.

After all, this was Su Qingya’s opportunity.

The more people she knew, the more communication she would have in the future in her career.

But Su Qingya was afraid of talking to this group of people.

Her social skills had always been a weak point.

Of course, Xu Nian had to take good care of her girlfriend.

In this regard, Xu Nian had no intention of helping Su Qingya change this problem.

Because in this way, only in this way, could Qingya rely on herself more in this area.

Only if she was like a solid ice to everyone else could Xu Nian have enough security.

She must, and could only, give all her enthusiasm to herself.

Before a few people could get close, Xu Nian stood in front of Su Qingya.

“I’m sorry, everyone, Qingya has not been feeling well, so she may not be able to communicate with you for too long.”

Originally, a few people thought that Xu Nian wanted to steal Su Qingya’s limelight.

But when they saw Xu Nian’s clothes, they quickly dismissed this idea.

Xu Nian often attended this level of banquet, so how could she not know the rules?

But now, she still chose to wear casual clothes that were similar to Su Qingya’s.

This was enough to prove her concern for Su Qingya.

“I’m really sorry, everyone. My sister just joined this family, so she’s still a bit ignorant. So please be kind.”

Xu Nian joked, and the others smiled when they heard her words.

They also symbolically asked Su Qingya a few questions. After getting the answers they wanted, they dispersed without saying anything out of line.

Just then, a delicately dressed girl in the crowd turned her gaze on the two of them.

She was observing, observing their relationship, observing their faces, and then thinking slightly.

Shaking her wine glass, the girl finally came forward. Carelessly, the wine glass in her hand fell, and the wine inside spilled all over the floor.

“Ah! I’m sorry. I was really careless. Did I stain your dresses?”

The wine didn’t stain their clothes, but the other party’s actions didn’t look like they were being careless.

“What do you mean?”

Before Su Qingya could speak, Xu Nian stepped forward.

She naturally wouldn’t give a good face to those who came to cause trouble.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I didn’t think it would turn out like this. Wuwuwu.”

A few tears flowed from the girl’s eyes. Her crying wasn’t loud, but it spread throughout the venue.

Hearing this crying, Xu Nian also became a bit upset.

“Niannian, why don’t we just forget about it.”

“We can’t just let it go!”

Xu Nian was furious.

Nameless anger was stirring in her heart. Even though the eyes of the people around her were cast over, she didn’t intend to calm down.

“Wuwuwu, please, please forgive me. No matter what, I’m willing to do it.”

The girl knelt down and humbly wanted to wipe the wine stains on the carpet with her dress.

Looking at the other party’s actions and hearing the girl’s crying, for some reason, a sense of destruction was growing in her heart.

She really, really wanted to destroy the person in front of her.

Xu Nian raised her leg, trying to step on the person’s head and humiliate her severely.

Su Qingya suddenly noticed that Xu Nian’s face was very wrong. She quickly supported Xu Nian and dragged her away.

At this time, she also smelled a strange scent.
