Chapter 18 Attending the Birthday Banquet
"In that case, this might be a social gathering." Ling Xiyue said with a smile.
"Sodality?" Xiaoyin frowned slightly.
"Oh, this is a party for them to choose their ideal partner." Ling Xiyue explained.
"Yeah, that should be it." Xiaoyin nodded.
Suddenly, Xiaoyin thought of a question and she became curious.
"Miss, do you want to perform a talent show? It would be nice to show everyone what you can do."
Ling Xiyue was stunned and asked cautiously: "Me? What talents do I have?"
Xiaoyin was stunned and surprised by Ling Xiyue's question, but she still answered.
"Miss, you have so many talents. You are good at painting, playing the guqin, and women's work."
Ling Xiyue was dumbfounded, thinking: Oh my god, so talented? But, I am not good at these?
Seeing that Ling Xiyue didn't say anything, Xiaoyin advised: "Miss, why don't you perform the guqin? Your guqin is the best I've ever seen. That day, it will definitely shine and attract everyone's attention."
Ling Xiyue suddenly felt guilty, but she couldn't explain anything, so she could only shake her head.
"Forget it. I'd better not perform that day. I'm already married. No matter how good my performance is, what good will it be? It's better to give the opportunity to those who need to perform, right?"
Xiaoyin nodded repeatedly, "That makes sense. The young lady is really considerate."
"That's right. I am a very considerate person." Ling Xiyue answered bluntly.
Seeing this, Xiaoyin just smiled and said nothing.
In the blink of an eye, it is June 9th
After the evening, Butler Xiao came over in person and invited Ling Xiyue to the dining room for dinner. Although Ling Xiyue had some doubts, she still followed Butler Xiao.
When she arrived at the dining room, Ling Xiyue saw He Tingxi, who had already been sitting at the dining table waiting for her.
"Your Highness." Ling Xiyue bowed slightly as she walked up to He Tingxi.
"Please sit down and have your meal." He Tingxi glanced at Ling Xiyue and gestured with his hand.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Ling Xiyue sat next to He Tingxi.
She looked down at the menu. There were only five or six dishes, and they were still as simple as always, not luxurious at all.
Ling Xiyue couldn't help but think: This eldest prince is somewhat similar to the original owner, both of them are relatively frugal.
When she saw He Tingxi start eating, she followed suit.
During the meal, He Tingxi didn't say a word, and Ling Xiyue didn't know what to say either, so they both ate quietly.
He Tingxi spoke only when Ling Xiyue put down her chopsticks.
"Tomorrow is the Royal Grandmother's birthday. Come with me to the palace to celebrate."
"Okay. Do you want to prepare a birthday gift?" Ling Xiyue asked curiously.
"You don't need to prepare, I'm ready, you just go." He Tingxi said lightly.
"Okay." Ling Xiyue responded obediently.
He Tingxi looked at Ling Xiyue and asked, "There will be a talent show tomorrow. If you want to perform, I can help you sign up."
"No need, give the opportunity to those who need to perform." Ling Xiyue shook her head.
"Do we need someone to perform?" He Tingxi was a little surprised.
"Oh, I thought that since I'm already married, there's no need for me to show off in front of everyone. I should keep a low profile and not steal other people's limelight." Ling Xiyue explained with a smile.
Even so, Ling Xiyue muttered in her heart: In fact, I am incompetent. It is really hypocritical to say that I am afraid of stealing the limelight from others. However, no matter what, I can't tell the truth.
Ling Xiyue felt a little guilty.
He Tingxi was very satisfied with Ling Xiyue's answer. He nodded and said, "Okay, as long as you like it."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"Tomorrow at 3 p.m., wait in front of the mansion gate and we will set out together."
"it is good."
next day
Ling Xiyue originally wanted to not dress up, but when she thought of He Tingxi, she hesitated.
Finally, I decided to dress up so as not to embarrass He Tingxi.
At 3 p.m., she, accompanied by Xiaoyin, walked to the gate of the mansion.
Coincidentally, He Tingxi also came out at this time. When he saw Ling Xiyue, he was stunned.
Ling Xiyue is indeed dazzling after dressing up, and the temperament she exudes is really fresh and refined, making people unforgettable.
While he was looking at Ling Xiyue, Ling Xiyue happened to be looking at him as well. Their eyes met and He Tingxi hurriedly avoided her gaze.
Seeing this, Ling Xiyue was confused and thought: Your Highness, what is that look in his eyes? Is my makeup so scary? He was so scared that he didn't dare to look at it for a second.
"Let's go." He Tingxi said.
"Yes."
After Shi Hui carried He Tingxi into the carriage, he also stayed in the carriage to accompany He Tingxi.
Ling Xiyue sat aside, secretly watching He Tingxi and the others.
She found that He Tingxi never looked at her during the whole process. His eyes were either looking at Shi Hui or he closed his eyes to rest.
She couldn't help but wonder: Your Highness, could the person he likes be Shi Hui? To be honest, Shi Hui is quite handsome, tall, strong, and very skilled. It's very likely.
When they arrived at the palace, Xiaoyin stayed in the carriage and did not go with them.
Shi Hui had to follow because he had to take care of He Tingxi.
After arriving at the palace, they went straight to the main hall where the Queen Mother's birthday banquet would be held.
When we arrived at the main hall, it was already packed with people.
Because of their status, wherever He Tingxi and Ling Xiyue went, people around them would stand up and greet them until they were seated.
After Ling Xiyue sat down, she looked around curiously. The people here were all unfamiliar to her and she hardly knew any of them.
While looking around, Ling Xiyue saw a familiar figure sitting not far away. When she looked closely, it was Ling Chuchen.
Looking closely at Ling Chuchen, she is dressed brightly and beautifully today, and is very eye-catching.
Looking at her expression, she seems to be the most stunning one in the whole place.
Ling Xiyue was a little shocked. She didn't expect that she could come to the Queen Mother's birthday.
Coincidentally, Ling Chuchen also looked at Ling Xiyue, and Ling Chuchen gave Ling Xiyue an evil smile.
Ling Xiyue instantly got goosebumps all over her body and had a bad feeling that something was going to happen.
At this time, He Tingxi looked at Ling Xiyue and saw that Ling Xiyue was staring at one place. He followed Ling Xiyue's gaze and saw Ling Chuchen.
He asked curiously, "Who is she?"
"she?"
Ling Xiyue was startled, turned around, and saw He Tingxi looking at Ling Chuchen. She responded: "She? She is my sister Ling Chuchen."
At this time, Ling Chuchen noticed that He Tingxi was looking at her, and she hurriedly stood up and bowed.
After getting He Tingxi's nod in response, she sat down, lowered her head slightly, and dared not look at Ling Xiyue again.
He Tingxi took this opportunity to look at Ling Chuchen, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
He whispered to Ling Xiyue: "Your sister and you are not of the same personality."
"Your Highness, how did you know?" Ling Xiyue was very curious and asked anxiously.
"Looking at her clothes and makeup, you can tell that she is quite flamboyant," He Tingxi said lightly.
"Oh."
Upon hearing this, Ling Xiyue looked at Ling Chuchen again. It was indeed true. He was quite ostentatious.
