Minister Chen had chosen to hold the banquet at his own home which was a courtyard-style place. It was grand and gave a historical vibe adding majesty to the owner of the home.
The main hall was filled with people from different walks of life. And each and every single person in the hall was standing at the top of his or her field. With polite smiles, everyone was greeting the people they were familiar with or trying to talk to people they wanted to make connections with.
Mrs. Chen indeed loved the lively scenes a lot and she was really happy to have so many people gathered around for her birthday. She didn't even know her husband had planned so much. But she was touched and very happy.
