The old lady was soon dragged aside by an old lady of the same age as her to drink tea and chat.
And the girls who promised to take care of Ye Ruan in front of the old lady just now turned their heads and walked away in twos and threes.
Ye Ruan was awkwardly left alone.
Ye Ruan didn't care, she wasn't here to make friends anyway.
Since today's banquet will be attended by the entire Gu family, which means that the defenses in other places will be relatively weak, this is the best chance for her to go to the Gu family's ancestral hall.
It's just that although the people present are deliberately isolating her, there are still many people's eyes staring at her, so she can't act rashly for the time being.
Alas, sometimes a boyfriend is too good, which is also a trouble! New Biquge
Ye Ruan walked to the sofa in the lounge area and sat down.
The hall of the old house is a Chinese-style building, but the banquet is Western-style. There are a variety of Western dishes that can be served by yourself at the dining table. There are many waiters in the banquet hall with trays.
From time to time, a dumb slave would hold a tray full of various drinks and bow and respectfully hand it to her.
She shook her head slightly and said thank you, and the other party immediately took the tray away.
From time to time, new people would come in the hall, and the people who came after one after another could see from their appearance that they were not the Gu family's own family members, but those from Gu Changxuan's mouth who had a good relationship with the Gu family.
The girls from the Gu family are obviously familiar with the girls from the aristocratic families.
Because every time a daughter from an aristocratic family came, there would be a girl from the Gu family who came to greet her, and the two whispered for a while before looking at her.
Ye Ruan didn't care about those eyes at all.
She was already thinking about whether she wanted to urinate out, and tried to find a way to go to the ancestral hall.
The only thing she was worried about was the landscaping in the outside yard based on the Five Elements and Gossip. Gu Chen had said that if you didn't walk in a specific way, you would get lost in it, and it would be very dangerous if you got lost.
Although the training camp has also trained some things in this area, because the knowledge in this area is almost lost even in China, there are not many materials that can be found in the training camp, and even fewer can train them.
And when she came with Gu Chen, she had already noticed that the five elements and gossip in this garden was very deep, and she didn't fully understand it, she could only deduce some based on the part that followed Gu Chen before.
But she can only take a risk, otherwise she will miss this opportunity today, and she may not find such a good opportunity in the future.
Ye Ruan's eyes subconsciously glanced at the door, and the banquet officially started. Except for Gu Changxuan and Gu Chen, who had not come yet, no one else came.
She thought she should almost be able to go.
It's just that before she got up, a goblet filled with juice was handed to her, "Hello, my name is Gu Qing, can you get to know me?"
Ye Ruan looked up and saw a girl with bright eyes and white teeth. The girl looked about the same age as her, and her brows and eyes were two points similar to Gu Chen.
She took the cup in Gu Qing's hand.
Gu Qing sat down beside her.
"How long have you been with Gu Chen?" Gu Qing asked straight to the point.
Ye Ruan didn't answer her question, and looked at her with bright and clear eyes.
Gu Qing took a sip of the juice in her own hand, shrugged slightly and said, "I don't mean anything else, I just ask casually. I think you are pretty good. Your temperament is very similar to Gu Chen."
When Ye Ruan heard this, a faint light flashed in her eyes. Gu Chen told her last night that he had no contact with the people in the Gu family's old house.
