The distinguished lady is the wife of a government official.
Originally, when she appeared here, a whole bunch of people couldn’t believe it.
Now seeing that she’d come for Shao Yijia, those around exchanged uneasy glances, extremely wary of the Ye Family’s recognized blood daughter.
Shao Yijia smiled slightly, neither nodding nor denying that it was her.
She bore the air of someone superior.
Making the official’s wife even more certain of her guess, she said, "My husband said it must be you, it seems he was right, Celestial Master Shao, after the banquet, shall we discuss the cooperation between the Celestial Masters World and our government? You know, there are always some cases that ordinary people can’t solve."
"It would be my great honor," nodded Shao Yijia.
The government had wanted to cooperate with the Celestial Masters World for many years.
But with fewer and fewer Celestial Masters, the administrators of the Celestial Masters World had never agreed. Now hearing Shao Yijia’s ready acceptance, they were thrilled.
Lady Yang refused to be outdone. Although the banquet was set to start at seven in the evening and it was only six fifty, she already took out her gift.
"Yijia, you’ve suffered so much all these years outside," Lady Yang gave the diamond to Shao Yijia.
No woman dislikes jewelry.
Shao Yijia was, of course, utterly delighted.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Ye, Ye Chengfeng, and the butler followed closely behind Shao Yijia ever since the start of the banquet, wherever she went.
Everyone knew that after tonight, S City’s number one Golden Lady would be replaced.
"Yun’an may seem indifferent to you," Ye Chengfeng smiled as he saw one formidable guest after another at the banquet, people he couldn’t have afforded to invite. "Look, the people he invites are so sincere."
Shao Yijia lowered her eyes and smiled.
Seeing that young men had already approached Shao Yijia, Lady Yang started looking around for Yang Feng and finally spotted him in a corner.
"What are you still doing here? If you don’t go now, your wife is going to be snatched away by someone else!" Lady Yang went up to him, chiding with frustration.
Yang Feng put down his glass and gave a faint response, seemingly preoccupied with something and not really paying attention.
Suddenly remembering something, he inquired, "Mom, did you prepare a gift for Ye Shaohua?"
"You’re still thinking about Ye Shaohua?" Lady Yang looked around to make sure no one was looking their way before warning him in a low voice, "You finally caught up with Yijia, how can you still have Ye Shaohua in your heart? Why prepare a gift for her? Haven’t you seen that today everyone is here for Shao Yijia?!"
Yang Feng opened his mouth, "But..."
"Enough, don’t say more," Lady Yang didn’t even listen to his explanation, "Come here at once!"
On the other side.
Ye Shaohua’s old rich second-generation friends and high school friends had also arrived.
They naturally saw Mrs. Ye taking Shao Yijia to meet other guests.
Standing at a distance, Du Xinrui gestured to Ye Shaohua.
"Look everyone, the Ye Family Young Lady is here..." Du Xinrui said to the group around her while hiding the sneer beneath her eyes, "Oh wait, we shouldn’t call her Young Lady anymore. Shaohua, what does the butler call you now?"
There were many people at this banquet, some that even Mrs. Ye and Ye Chengfeng were quite daunted by.
Not to mention people like Du Xinrui.
They were originally hangers-on of Ye Shaohua. Though termed as hanging out, they had formerly just flattered Ye Shaohua, among them were those like Du Xinrui who were very jealous of her.
Now seeing that the Ye Family’s biological daughter had been found and the family had held a banquet in her great honor.
No wonder...
If their family gained such a prominent figure who was a blood relative, it would only be the kind of grandeur shown by the Ye Family.
Ye Shaohua snorted lightly, "It’s the Ye Family who’s annoying to me."
"The Ye Family annoys you?" Du Xinrui scoffed, "You don’t blush telling such a lie. Didn’t you see they even forgot your birthday? Open your eyes and take a good look at the display screen behind you!"
It was at that moment.
As soon as it hit seven o’clock!
All the lights in the banquet hall went out at once!
A giant crystal display screen in the center of the fourth and fifth floors abruptly lit up.
Then a line of red text appeared—
[Welcome to Lady Shaohua’s 23rd Birthday Banquet!]
There was a moment of silence in the venue, followed by voices of disbelief. Shao Yijia’s previously smiling face instantly froze.
Lady Yang turned to Mrs. Ye, "Mrs. Ye, what’s going on with this hotel? How could they mess up the content of the banquet?"
Mrs. Ye frowned as well, "Where’s the hotel management?"
"Swoosh—" The lights towards the entrance brightened.
An elderly man walked in slowly.
When everyone saw clearly who it was, they all gasped in shock.
"Yun’an has invited me to preside over Celestial Master Ye Tian’s birthday banquet; surely I haven’t... arrived late, have I?"
