King of Glory: Brother, let's have dinner

Chapter 34 The Humiliation at the Banquet
She looked around and didn't see her brother, so she couldn't help asking: "Mom, where is brother?"

"He and Milady share a common fate, and they should be discussing countermeasures!"

Gu Nian remembered Milady's curse, but she was not able to resolve it, but she was transferred to her body, and at the price of physical disability, she was gradually crystallized.

She's been fighting it all the time.

That's why she sent Marco Polo to the east to find the truth of the curse.

She is an admirable leader, but also a strong lady.

Gu Nian is no longer entangled. Before the banquet started, Kana carefully took her to dress up again. She changed into a beautiful evening dress again. The long skirt swept the floor, and the fluffy skirt wore a pearl crown on her head. She was dressed like A princess, elegant and extravagant.

The necklace on her body shone with brilliance and jewels. What was rare was her aura, which overwhelmed these jewels, making her look elegant and majestic.

However, at today's banquet, she wasn't dressed the most brilliantly. The most brilliant one was Miss Catherine of the Claire family.

Because she is the only jewel in the Clare family, and she is extremely beautiful and bright, her appearance has attracted the frequent attention of all the men in the audience.

In contrast, Gu Nian is not very brilliant.

Her facial features are delicate, and she is only 15 years old now, and she has not opened her eyes. Except for her big eyes, which are more eye-catching, in addition, no matter her figure or appearance, she is indeed inferior to other ladies at the banquet .

If it was the original owner, such an occasion would make her feel inferior.

It wasn't particularly conspicuous in the first place, and it was easy to be ignored by others as soon as it was low self-esteem. Repeatedly, the original owner has always had no sense of presence at such a banquet.

But Gu Nian is different, she doesn't care what other people think.

As soon as the banquet started, she found a corner and sat down, took the dessert and ate it quietly.

Mother Kana was a little helpless, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Just at this time, a noble lady came looking for her for a long time, so Kana had no choice but to leave first. Before she left, she specially told Gu Nian: "Lucy, when someone invites you to dance, don't be timid. You have to believe that you are the best person tonight." The most beautiful princess!"

"Oh!" Gu Nian stuffed a small bite of cake and nodded.

Kana didn't know whether she had listened or not, whether she was counting on Gu Nian or not, she still went to find out what the other wives said by herself.

After the dance started, it was true that no one invited her to dance.

On the contrary, someone looked sideways frequently, and started pointing not far away.

Gu Nian wondered if it was because of practicing witchcraft, even though they spoke in a low voice, she could still hear what they were talking about.

"She is Lucy, the one who burned her former fiancé into a bald head at the playground this afternoon. It is said that Avril and the others suffered this afternoon. I didn't expect that she would not know magic, but would actually know that kind of evil witchcraft."

"It's her. I heard that she was taken captive because of the empire's invasion of the land of warriors last time. Her fiancé told her about it, so she held a grudge. The one who walked with her before was Master Allen, but have you seen it? , Master Allen’s first dance tonight was for Catherine, and he didn’t even look at her from the beginning to the end.”

"It seems that the rumor is true!"

A noble girl, when it comes to gossip, is even worse than ordinary people in the market.

Anyway, few of them have friendship with Gu Nian, so they can't wait to step on them to death!
Gu Nian frowned, she really couldn't do anything to these people in such an occasion.

At this moment, Kayn and Milady came out.

The man is handsome and the woman is beautiful, the key is that both of them have temperament that ordinary people can't match.

As if they should be a match made in heaven.

When the two of them came out side by side, the people around couldn't help whispering.

"If the Tower Family and the Star Family marry, then it can only be Milady and Kayn. Both of them are so excellent!"

"Yeah, it looks very right, both of them are the pride of heaven..."

The surrounding sounds entered Gu Nian's ears, making her a little dazed for a while.

Brother and Milady...

What about Mulan?
It seems that my brother prefers Hua Mulan.

But Hua Mulan and King Lanling are officially recognized as a couple.

I have to say that her brain circuit was a little crooked.

He also felt that he was still joining the Great Wall Guards anyway, and had never met Hua Mulan. Perhaps because he and Milady shared a common destiny, it was not certain that the two would fall in love with each other.

In this case, if the two complement each other and can lift the curse, then everyone will be happy.

She thought something beautiful, and couldn't help laughing.

But at this time, a young man walked up to her, stretched out a hand, and said in a very gentlemanly way: "Miss Lucy, do you mind if I invite you to dance?"

All the eyes around him looked over.

Gu Nian also looked dazed, the man in front of him was a little chunky and greasy, forget it, his face was covered with freckles, and the smell of perfume sprayed on his body could kill flies.

He was Catherine's cousin, Baron Stephen.

Everyone around laughed: "Not to mention, Lucy and Baron Stephen look really good together."

"Speaking of which, maybe she's the one who's been promoted, Baron Stephen's family background is clean anyway. Does she have any experience of being captured by an imperial officer and then coming back?"

"Don't say that, she is the noble daughter of the Duke's family!"

"Tch, did you think it was Miss Luna? Others are serious heirs, what is she?"

Everyone's words made Stephen a little elated, and the expression he looked at Gu Nian became a lot more arrogant.

In fact, with his own pig-headed appearance, he really couldn't invite other girls.

The noble daughter's daughter doesn't like him like this, so there is no need to make false claims.

And the daughter who has declined a little bit will not follow him, after all, their family is attached to the Claire family.

So on weekdays, he has not been very popular.

If it was the past, he would not have dared to come forward to look for Gu Nian, but today it was because he heard a lot of rumors that made Gu Nian very miserable.

He felt that he invited her to dance today as a kind of charity to her, and she dared not refuse.

And the pointing attitude of the surroundings also made people feel that they were attracting attention, so they became even more complacent.

"I don't want to reward this face, you can leave."

After Gu Nian finished speaking, she looked at the cake in her hands tangled up. Ever since Stephen arrived, she couldn't take a bite of such a delicious dessert.Even a little nauseous.

Gu Nian's words made Stephen feel very humiliated. She didn't give him face even though so many people were watching.
