243 Arrived!

Arrived?

Who arrived?

Qian Nanyin and Wen Yuyi were both shocked. After exchanging a mutual glance, Qian Nanyin doubtfully asked, “Has the Bai Family arrived?”

Wen Yuyi answered, “…That isn’t possible, right? What time is it? I thought they would only be here in the afternoon?”

The Bai Family had an esteemed status. Since they had said they would come for lunch, they would definitely only come when it was time for lunch. However, it was only 9 a.m. now. It was impossible for them to come so early!

As the two of them thought of this, they heard Madam Yun in the living room doubtfully asking, “Who has arrived?”

“T…The Bai Family!” The butler panted.

“What?”

Everyone stood up abruptly. Yun Wei then decisively spoke, “Butler, go up and get my father and the others. We will head to the entrance to welcome them first.”

The Bai Family was one of the four great influential families of the capital, so it wasn’t too excessive for the Yun Family to welcome them at the entrance. Since the Bai Family had arrived, how could they still stay in the living room?

Hence, the group of them began to walk out.

Wen Yuyi hurriedly ran to the kitchen to look for Shen Wanxian, who was instructing the servants in charge of preparing the banquet. “Mother, don’t do this anymore. The Bai Family has arrived!”

Hearing this, Shen Wanxian quickly rushed out of the kitchen and complained as she walked with her daughter. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? If Madam Yun gets ahead of me, won’t all my limelight be stolen by her?”

The living room was soon empty of people.

On the other hand, Shen Qianhui and Jing Zhen only stayed upstairs. Just like her parents, Shen Ruojing also didn’t wish to host the Bai Family, so she decided to stay out from the main route, preparing to look for Chu Cichen.

In the end, as she turned a corner, she suddenly heard a voice from up ahead.

“Oi, Shen Ruojing. Although your character isn’t good and you always suppress Qing Dai, I was wrong for accusing you of things. Hey, this is a compensation gift, so please forgive my previous behavior!”

Shen Ruojing. “?”
