Chapter 5631 Sister Nian Goes in to Find Someone

The weather is good today.

Rose Mansion is more elegant and magnificent under the soft and bright sunlight, like a palace from a fairy tale, quietly waiting for a feast to begin.

Qiao Nian followed him and stood on the steps, waiting for the man in the suit in front to communicate with his companions.

"Miss Eleanor told the people to go in."

"Do you have an invitation?"

"No."

"No invitation."

"You can contact Miss Eleanor."

The security guard looked up and down with a vigilant look wearing a headset, and Qiao Nian stood on the steps and glanced at him.

From the guard's perspective, he could only see the woman's side face, still beautiful outline.

He raised his hand to signal the two to wait.

"I'll confirm first."

"OK."

The man in the suit stepped back and signaled him to do whatever he wanted.

The guard walked quickly to the side to contact Eleanor. I don't know what Eleanor said, and he turned back after a while.

This time, the guard was much more respectful. He stepped aside to make way and made a gesture: "Come in."

The man in the suit did not go in. He stood there and said to Qiao Nian: "I'll take you here."

"Thank you."

The woman's voice was polite, but also wrapped in a careless decadence. She lifted her skirt and walked past the guard at the door and walked into the magnificent mansion.

Qiao Nian stepped into the mansion and saw that the center of the hall was shining under the illumination of countless crystal chandeliers.

The table was covered with white satin, the edges were inlaid with delicate lace, and in the center was a wreath woven from fresh roses and green leaves.

On the table, silverware sparkled, bone china tableware was flawless white, and next to each set of tableware was a carefully folded napkin with delicate rose patterns embroidered on it.

Around the banquet hall, the walls were covered with oil paintings by famous artists of past dynasties, and each one seemed to tell a different story.

Soft classical music flowed slowly in the air.

The waiters presented the carefully prepared delicacies one by one, from appetizers to exquisite main courses, and then to sweet desserts.

The guests chatted and laughed, toasted together, and the atmosphere was warm and enthusiastic.

There were at least hundreds of people here, wearing various evening dresses and holding champagne to greet each other. Finding someone in such a social occasion is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

After Qiao Nian came in, she took a glass of champagne, took a sip symbolically, and walked to the corner.

Her black velvet dress was not eye-catching among the guests, and was even too low-key.

But her temperament was so unique.

Even though Qiao Nian didn't talk to anyone after she came in and walked straight to the corner, she couldn't stop the countless pairs of eyes from glancing at her along the way.

She was used to being looked at, so she didn't react much. She found a relatively quiet corner and leaned against it. Her eyes hidden behind the black veil quietly looked at the people attending the banquet.

From the time she came in until now, she hasn't seen a familiar person yet.

Not to mention the people she suspected were here, even Moody, Ying Shi, and Eleanor, whom she had seen before, were nowhere to be seen. No one knew where they had gone.

Qiao Nian lowered her head and frowned slightly. She put one hand in her pocket and found that she was wearing a long skirt with a wide crinoline. Her eyes were more hateful and her red lips were drawn into a line.

She took a deep breath and suppressed all her emotions under her black eyes. She turned her head slightly and continued to observe the guests coming and going.

…

The second floor of the terrace of Rose Mansion.

The spacious terrace was brightly lit. Leaning against the glass fence and looking down, you can have a panoramic view of the banquet below. (End of this chapter)
