"Liuying, you can start with some pastries first; the reception isn't starting that soon."
Quan Tianyou walked with Su Liuying toward the food, they hadn't had dinner before coming, and he knew she must be feeling a bit hungry by now.
"Good, I'm actually feeling a bit hungry!"
Su Liuying smiled at him and walked alongside him.
Truthfully, her heart had been pounding non-stop. When they had walked in earlier, she hadn't failed to notice the disdainful looks from the women present; they simply didn't dare to talk about her openly because of Quan Tianyou's status.
"Liuying, don't be nervous. You're going to attend many receptions like this in the future, so now is the time to start getting used to it. Just imagine yourself as a proud swan, looking down on those women!"
"Hehe!"
Quan Tianyou's words made Su Liuying laugh, touched by his thoughtfulness. He too had noticed those unfriendly glances from the other women.
