Chapter 2708 - Her Purpose
Chapter 2708: Her Purpose
As soon as they went inside, the Ruan sisters could not contain their amazement. “Why do you arrange things that way in your home?”
Ruan Ruyun couldn’t help but wonder, as she saw various types of food, water, and wine placed on several tables in the middle of the garden, if all banquets were like this. Their family did not do it in this manner. After all, their Ruan family had hosted a couple of banquets in her honour recently.
“My brother and I, as well as Little Jiu, assisted my mother in organising this banquet. Is it different from what you’ve seen before?” Xie Shisi said with a smile. “You can take whatever you want to eat or drink on your own. We still have a few games to play.”
Perhaps because they had never seen such a banquet before, the young men and young women were ecstatic as they shuffled and conversed in the garden. Men and women were not separated and were gathered together, creating a lively atmosphere.
Since they were in the presence of the opposite sex, regardless of whether they were young men or young women, they displayed their best and most refined self.
Because of the two sisters’ good looks, as well as the fact that the Ruan family was a large influential clan, they were surrounded by others as soon as they arrived, and even Xie Shisi was pushed aside.
When Feng Jiu arrived, she observed that the young men and young women gathered around two girls while lavishing them with compliments. She also noticed that one of the two girls was the Ruan family’s Third Miss, while the other one was…
Her eyes flashed. The other person was the Ruan family’s Fourth Miss, Ruan Ruyun. After not seeing her for a few days, she had significantly changed. She sat in the centre, surrounded by others, and spoke eloquently to them, appearing as at ease as a fish in water.
She didn’t go over there but rather walked to where the fruit was placed. She took a piece of fruit and stood there eating it while watching the scene. Ruan Ruyun, who was engaged in conversation, spotted her and approached her with surprise.
“There you are. I’ve been looking for you. ” The young man in front of her was still wearing unobtrusive azure clothing when she approached. Her heart raced when she recalled the news she had inquired about.
Wasn’t it claimed that he was the Xie family’s head steward? Such a young head steward who also knew about her physique…
“Brother Little Jiu, my face has healed. Thank you.” She thanked her with her eyes beaming with smiles.
“What Brother Little Jiu? Is a servant deserving of your calling brother? Don’t break the rules.” The Ruan family’s Third Miss came over and glanced at Feng Jiu with a sneer.
......
“Since you’re here, have some fun!” Feng Jiu turned around and walked away without arguing with the Ruan family’s Third Miss.
“Third Sister, I’ll be back soon.” Ruan Ruyun said as she caught up with FengJiu.
Feng Jiu went to the kitchen, asking the staff to send several dishes and wine. When she returned to the courtyard, Fourth Miss followed her while looking around. When they arrived at the courtyard, she asked in surprise, “Brother Little Jiu lives here?” This was obviously not the servants’ courtyard.
“Do you need something from me?” Feng Jiu looked at her with her eyebrows raised.
“Mm-hmm.”
Ruan Ruyun nodded while looking back at her. “Brother Little Jiu, I heard that you’re the head steward here? Our Ruan family’s Patriarch said you are a capable man. It is unfair for you to remain as the head steward of a Xie clan’s collateral line. You are welcome to join our Ruan family if you choose. The Patriarch promised that you can serve as a guest official in our Ruan family and the treatment must be better than here.”
Feng Jiu was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, “Your Patriarch really placed me on the pedestal.”
