Zhou Family arranged seating according to one's social status.
It was only after Wen Zhi sat down that she realized this table was filled with significant figures from the city, all around their forties and fifties. Some had brought their wives, while others, who had lost their spouses early on and remained unmarried despite having lovers, knew that such companions couldn't be presented in this setting.
Wen Zhi was the youngest, and also the only one who had the rare privilege of attending as Shang Hexing's girlfriend.
Everyone present was well aware that Wen Zhi normally would be seated at a different table. Since Shang Hexing brought her to the main table, it was a clear indication that she was the one he intended to marry!
Therefore, it didn't take long for two noblewomen to start a conversation with Wen Zhi.
