Chapter 777: The Engagement Banquet Begins
??
Feng Yuanzhou said excitedly, “Master Han and Second Master Han gave Jianing a gift for her engagement and even specially let the two young masters attend the banquet. Our Feng family is really grateful!”
Han Jintian still had his hands in his pockets. He pretended not to hear Feng Yuanzhou’s flattery and did not even look at him.
Feng Qing looked at Han Jintian who put on a cynical expression and walked towards the main table with an ‘I’m invincible in the world’ gait. Then, she saw that there were many things on the stage that were completely different from the Western style of engagement ceremony. Looking carefully, these were all display racks in Xia country’s style. There were all sorts of precious decorations on them, such as red coral trees, sapphire vases, and so on. Every one of them was filled with a rich Xia country style, and it was obvious that they were expensive.
Feng Yuanzhou welcomed another guest and brought the guest to the exhibition stand. “This is the red coral tree given by Master Han. It’s completely made of red coral. It will at least be priced at ten million in the auction. There’s also this Glazed Cornucopia which was given by Second Master Han. It’s at least twenty to thirty million.”
Feng Qing’s gaze kept sizing up the gifts. Han Jintian said, “My father and uncle like to compete and compare no matter what they do. My father gave a ten million red coral tree, and my uncle gave a treasure pot of the same value. My father gave another vase worth ten million, and my uncle hurriedly gave something of the same value.”
When he said this, Han Jintian also had a helpless expression. It was because of this that the Han family gave the Feng family ten gifts, and each of them was worth more than ten million. The Feng family had received so many expensive gifts, so they thought that the Han family valued their Feng family’s adopted daughter, Feng Jianing’s engagement banquet especially.
However, Han Jintian and Han Jinlu were already used to it. The two of them had grown up under the comparison of the two families, but the guests who came to visit were the same as Feng Yuanzhou. They didn’t understand the thoughts of the two heads of the Han family, so they flattered Feng Yuanzhou, “President Feng, your relationship with the two heads of the Han family is extraordinary. You’re hiding your strength!”
The guest said in a low voice, “Why did I hear that First Master Han and Second Master Han are like fire and water? Second Master Han is usually hostile to whichever family First Master Han likes. This is the first time such a situation has happened. Since there is the full support and help of the two Han family heads, your Feng family’s business will definitely rise by a large level.”
Upon hearing this, Feng Yuanzhou was also extremely excited in his heart. However, he still kept a low profile and humbly brushed off the guests. However, Feng Yuanzhou also felt the same way in his heart. This was really unprecedented. The two heads of the Han family, who had always been at odds with each other, had thrown an olive branch to the Feng family at the same time.
Feng Yuanzhou wished that today’s engagement banquet was over and ran to the Han family to get some benefits from the two heads of the Han family. The banquet started and the host said, “Firstly, I represent the Feng family and the Cao family to express our sincere gratitude to the noble guests who came to attend tonight’s engagement banquet. Now, let us welcome the two newlyweds who are engaged tonight with the warmest applause!”
Everyone’s gaze was on the side of the stage. Feng Jianing held Cao Beining’s arm and walked onto the stage with a smile. Cao Beining’s expression was as ugly as it could be. Even when facing so many wealthy families in the Capital, he didn’t have a smile on his face.
Today, Feng Jianing was wearing a large red gown. The gown was obviously loose at the waist and looked very suitable for pregnant women. As she walked, she held her stomach with one hand. Because she had eaten too well recently, her entire face had become much rounder. For today’s engagement banquet, she had specially put on thick makeup. Under the light, her entire face was extremely greasy.
