The imperial banquet was over, and Princess Lan along with others couldn't find fault with Xuan Cheng. Even if there was any, none of then dared to speak.
Zhao Ming who was sitting right before Xuan Cheng kept wondering how was it possible that even though he was present right before her, Xuan Cheng didn't even mistakingly spare a look at him.
He was upset, and yet euphoric to see how Xuan Cheng kept her promise despite having an odd against her family, she attended the banquet and that too with so much preparation. Then again, the present that were carefully prepared by Xuan Cheng instilled a feeling of doubt in him.
'Had she planned to attend the banquet beforehand?" He mumbled to himself.
"Brother Ming, aren't you going to make a toast to father and mother and wish them?" Prince Jing asked with a sarcastic smirk on his face.
