At six o'clock sharp.
The Liu Family's members waited at the entrance to the eastern wing's archway, a place specially prepared for private banquets. It exuded the style and heritage of a high-class salon transformed from a garden of ancient officials and nobility.
They craned their necks in anticipation.
"Have they arrived?"
"Should we go out to greet them? Doesn't waiting here seem a bit insincere?"
"Let us younger ones go take a look," proposed little cousin Liu Yi, peeking out eagerly. "I'll go with cousin Yunye!"
"Wahhh…" The toddler held in Yang Yuerong's arms stretched out his tender white arms, also wanting to go.
"They're here!"
"The guests have arrived!"
Liu Huimin, leaning on the porch, exclaimed with some excitement.
"The Huo Family has all arrived."
