The atmosphere in the palace behind the enchanted doorway turned joyous again, and the singing drifted across the ballroom once more. When Chen Jingshu was invited to dance, Ren Xiaosu stopped talking with her.
Chen Cheng was also invited to dance by a girl from the House of Winston. Only An'an rejected all invitations and remained by Ren Xiaosu's side.
Melgor was surrounded by a group of people asking about details of the battle, and some of them even asked him what it felt like to kill. It seemed the youth of the House of Winston had not even experienced a proper battle before.
Ren Xiaosu silently shook his head. He felt that these people could barely help him.
Besides, he really disliked interacting with aristocrats.
In comparison, this place was very similar to the consortiums in the Central Plains. However, Ren Xiaosu preferred the atmosphere in the Northwest.
When An'an saw his expression, she suddenly asked, "Do you despise them?"
