Chapter 294 - Old Madam’s Sizing Up


Chapter 294: Old Madam’s Sizing Up

After following Butler Zeng into the courtyard, Xia Wanyuan had learned some skills in reading things after spending so many days in the manor.

The courtyard was much larger than Xia Wanyuan had imagined. It was decorated with pavilions and pavilions, and the Nine Zigzag Corridor style was like a large private garden.

If Xia Wanyuan had not walked in from outside, she would have thought that she had entered the Misty Rain River.

It seemed that Jun Shiling was right about the deep foundation of the Wei family.

“Miss Xia is here.”

A voice was heard from outside the door. The hall, which had been filled with low voices, instantly fell silent.

In principle, everyone who could stand in the hall today had the right to inherit the Wei family’s property. Furthermore, the old lady’s health had been deteriorating in the past few years, but the next head of the Wei family had not confirmed it for a long time. Everyone looked harmonious on the surface, but there was already a storm brewing in the dark.

There was already a lot of competition. Now, there was still someone who could not really be considered from the Wei family but came in to share a spot with them, everyone was naturally unhappy. However, after knowing that Xia Wanyuan was only a female celebrity who was connected to the Internet, everyone relaxed a lot. Now, they were more interested in watching the commotion.

After all, in the Wei family, everyone was highly educated and intelligent. They were either in the arts or in the business world. In the eyes of the Wei family, who had a strong sense of tradition, those who entered the entertainment industry were simply embarrassing.

Butler Zeng entered and led the people behind him in. The crowd, who had been prepared to watch the commotion, was speechless when Xia Wanyuan was completely exposed.

Xia Wanyuan was wearing a sky-blue embroidered dress. Her hair was tied up simply with a hairpin.

The style of the courtyard had a hint of ancient architecture. Xia Wanyuan walked slowly, as if she had walked out of the Misty Rain River.

The Wei family had very good genes. Everyone who walked in and out was handsome and beautiful. However, at this moment, everyone could not help but exclaim in their hearts. She’s so beautiful.

What surprised everyone even more was that Xia Wanyuan’s arrogant aura faintly resembled that of the Old Madam. It was equally frightening and made one involuntarily look up to her.

People who had originally only treated Xia Wanyuan as a cannon fodder competitor felt an inexplicable panic.

Under everyone’s gazes, Xia Wanyuan leisurely followed Butler Zeng’s guidance and found her seat.

The people sitting at the same table were all juniors of the same age as Xia Wanyuan. Xia Wanyuan glanced at them and they seemed to be a little hostile to her, other than a rather handsome man sitting opposite her nodding at her. Xia Wanyuan returned his smile.

Receiving Xia Wanyuan’s elegant smile, Wei Zimu was stunned. This sister he had never seen before was more interesting than he had imagined.

“Old Madam.” Xia Wanyuan had already taken her seat, but everyone’s gazes on her had yet to dissipate. A voice sounded, and Xia Wanyuan acutely sensed a pair of extremely sharp and probing eyes on her.

Xia Wanyuan followed this gaze and saw a silver-haired but rather imposing old lady sizing her up.

Xia Wanyuan glanced at the old lady and retracted her gaze. She picked up the cup beside her and poured herself a glass of water.

Seeing that Xia Wanyuan was still so composed under her scrutiny, some thoughts arose in the old madam’s heart, but she did not show it on her face.

“Let the banquet begin.” The old madam sat on her seat and glanced at the people in the hall. Without saying anything else, she got someone to start the banquet.

Xia Wanyuan had been busy the entire afternoon and was hungry. Just as her chopsticks were about to reach for the pearl meatballs on the table, they were stopped by someone.
