As night fell and the stars shone brightly, the palace was ablaze with lights, shining through the windows, illuminating every corner of the palace.

The magnificent building looks even more spectacular under the moonlight. The glazed green tiles reflect the cool light, giving people a solemn and dignified feeling. The palace is filled with a faint fragrance, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Su Qingning obediently followed Su Huaichuan and Shen Rou, and walked into the palace with everyone in the Su family.

Under the guidance of the palace servants, the Su family was arranged to sit under the dragon throne, in the second row of seats on the right, while the Xie family was seated in the first row and the Tang family in the third row.

As for the seats in the first row on the left, they are occupied by Prince Lin Mo Linyuan and the princes and princesses. The second and third rows are occupied by the Qi family and the Yang family respectively.

Su Qingning was very lucky to have the help of Su Huaichuan and Shen Rou, and sat in the front row with them.

Su Huaiyang, Liu Ruyan and Su Jingya sat in the seats behind Su Qingning.

Looking at Su Qingning who was sitting in front of her, Su Jingya was so jealous that she almost bit her teeth.

Why, why can that little bitch sit in the front row? How does she deserve it?

That seat should obviously belong to her, Su Jingya. If she was the one sitting in Su Qingning's seat at this moment, then she would be able to appreciate the handsome face of His Royal Highness Prince Lin without any hindrance.

And His Royal Highness Prince Lin will surely be fascinated by her beautiful appearance and deeply attracted by her beauty; in this way, she will be able to marry His Royal Highness Prince Lin as she wishes and have a happy marriage with him.

Su Jingya was immersed in her own fantasy dream. She raised her head and looked at Mo Lintian with affection. Then, she was surprised to find that Mo Lintian was looking at her with gentle eyes.

Ah~ Is His Highness Prince Lin looking at me? Has he finally understood my good qualities and fallen for my beauty?

I have to say, Su Jingya is really narcissistic. Has she forgotten so quickly how Mo Lintian ruthlessly rejected her a year ago?

In fact, the person Mo Lintian was looking at was Su Qingning, who was sitting in front of Su Jingya.

As soon as Su Qingning walked into the hall, Mo Lintian noticed her, and then he couldn't take his eyes off her.

Calculating the time, Mo Lintian hasn't seen Su Qingning for almost a week. It is said that a day without seeing someone feels like three autumns, and he doesn't know how many three autumns it has been.

So much so that he now loves Su Qingning very much and can't bear to take his eyes off her.

Tsk, the little girl seems to have gained some weight and looks even prettier.

When we first met, Su Qingning's hair was a little frizzy and yellow due to malnutrition, and she looked thin and small. She was obviously ten years old, but she looked only about eight years old.

Now, because she started practicing, Su Qingning can be said to have undergone a complete transformation. Not only has she become whiter and more beautiful, but she has also grown taller and fatter.

Su Qingning sat quietly in her seat, seemingly well-behaved and quiet, but in fact her nerves were always tense and she dared not let down her guard.

In the 22nd century, Su Qingning also underwent special training, so her five senses are more sensitive than those of ordinary people.

As early as the moment she stepped into the hall, Su Qingning felt a burning gaze staring at her, and then another vague gaze fell on her.

Su Qingning raised her eyes slightly and followed the line of sight, then she met Mo Lintian's gentle gaze.

Seeing Su Qingning looking over, Mo Lintian couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth. He opened his thin lips and said silently: "Little girl, long time no see~"

Seeing that it was Mo Lintian, the coldness in Su Qingning's eyes slowly dissipated. She nodded gently towards Mo Lintian as a greeting.

The interaction between the two people was seen by Qi Runyu who was sitting next to Mo Lintian. Qi Runyu said that he couldn't bear to watch his good brother's behavior of trying to show goodwill.

However, he was very curious about Su Qingning, who was treated specially by Mo Lintian, so he began to observe her secretly involuntarily.

Feeling that gaze again, Su Qingning turned her head with some impatience, and then she caught Qi Runyu who was peeking at her.

Su Qingning couldn't help but frown in confusion, as if asking why the other person was looking at her.

Having been caught, Qi Runyu felt guilty and embarrassed. He gave Su Qingning a friendly smile, then raised his hand and silently greeted her, "Hello, little sister, we meet again."

Faced with Qi Runyu's goodwill, Su Qingning felt a little confused, but out of politeness, she nodded slightly in response.

Qi Runyu did not deliberately conceal his gesture of raising his hand to greet others, so Qi Runnian, who was sitting at the same table with him, Qi Ling'er, who was sitting behind him, and Xie Yichen, who was sitting diagonally opposite him, all noticed his gesture.

The three of them were confused and couldn't help but look at Su Qingning curiously.

I saw a young girl in a light blue dress sitting quietly beside the eldest lady of the Su family. She had fair skin and delicate features. Her long, shiny black hair fell behind her like a waterfall, with only a few of her hair gently tied up by a silver hairpin, forming a simple and elegant bun.

The girl looked unfamiliar. Xie Yichen and the other two were sure they had never seen her before, but when they thought of the news that came out of the Su family a while ago, they had some guesses in their minds.

I guess she is the third daughter Su Qingning who was recently brought back to the Su family!

But...how did Qi Runyu, the peacock, know this Miss Su San? Xie Yichen was puzzled and couldn't help but feel a little curious about Su Qingning.

Feeling that there were several more eyes on her, Su Qingning felt helpless.

What's going on? Why are you all looking at me? Su Qingning held her forehead helplessly in her heart. She simply pretended not to notice other people's gazes, lowered her head and stared at the fruit plate on the table in a daze.

At this time, the emperor and empress had not arrived yet, and those who came to the palace banquet gathered in groups of three or four to chat.

How could Su Huaiyang, who has always been ambitious to take power in the Su family, miss this opportunity to build good relations with other families?

He picked up the wine glass and wanted to make friends with Xie Yichen, the future heir of the Xie family. However, before he could stand up, Liu Ruyan beside him quickly grabbed his arm and stopped him.

"Master, you'd better not talk to other people tonight!" Liu Ruyan advised tactfully.

At this time, Liu Ruyan still wanted to maintain Su Huaiyang's self-esteem and did not intend to tell him the truth about his bad breath.

However, Su Huaiyang did not understand her good intentions. When he saw Liu Ruyan trying to stop him, he couldn't help but frown and shouted coldly: "I am doing things, why do I need you to tell me what to do? What do you know, you woman?"
