The novel gathering was still ongoing.
Ye Ruoxi didn't seem to be choosing female companions for the men purely based on her whims of the moment. She also spoke with the ladies present now and then, or asked Li Jinsu and Du Yifu about their situations, pondered for a bit, then reached out her hand to point from afar, indicating her selection on the "Mandarin Duck Scroll."
