The next day's farewell banquet saw the youths arriving punctually, each dressed in splendid robes with jade belts, their elegant demeanors causing the surrounding people to frequently turn their heads.
Xue Yinhuan and Ye Ling, being unmarried young ladies, found it inconvenient to attend such gatherings, so neither came.
From the Xue Family, only Yun Huai brought Xue Yan along, and Ye Rong joined them as well.
Zhao Xi and Song Yuanbao arrived last.
As soon as they ascended the stairs, Ye Rong let out a cold humph upon seeing him.
Song Yuanbao nonchalantly smiled, "Which grown man still holds grudges overnight, Third Young Master Ye? With so many people here, give yourself some face."
Ye Rong said, "Get lost!"
Zhao Xi took the main seat and signaled to Song Yuanbao, who promptly sat obediently at his place.
