The luxurious estate, resplendent in gold and jade, resembled a magnificent castle, hosting an unprecedented grand banquet in full swing.
Countless crystal chandeliers sparkled like stars on the ceiling of the banquet hall, casting a soft glow that illuminated every corner. The floor was adorned with exquisite Persian carpets, each step feeling like walking on clouds.
Along the edges of the hall, rows of meticulously arranged dining tables awaited guests. The crystal tableware shimmered with enchanting reflections, while vibrant flowers surrounded exquisite dishes, and desserts adorned with gold leaf resembled works of art.
In attendance were the scions of wealthy families and distinguished young ladies from noble lineages. The gentlemen donned tailored suits and wore luxurious watches, exuding gentlemanly charm; the ladies dazzled in glamorous evening gowns, their flowing skirts blooming like flowers, with sparkling jewelry gleaming at their necks and wrists.
They exchanged pleasantries, their faces radiant with warm smiles, their voices weaving together a joyful symphony in the air. On stage, a renowned band played passionately, the lively melodies prompting many to sway along. Dancers in vibrant costumes showcased the allure of art through their graceful movements.
In another corner stood a towering champagne fountain, golden bubbles cascading down the glasses, rising in celebration and joy. Nearby, skilled bartenders mixed an array of colorful cocktails and fine spirits, creating a dazzling spectacle.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall was exceptionally vibrant. This grand event was not only a moment to indulge in joy and luxury but also an opportune occasion for heirs from various families and factions to seek suitable business alliances through marriage.
"Don't worry, Mom; everything will be fine."
Chi Qiyun drove a brightly colored supercar that screeched to a halt in her designated parking spot. One hand gripped a square tray while the other held her phone.
After stepping out of the car, she spoke on the phone as she made her way toward the banquet hall, her high heels clicking sharply against the ground. "I’ve arrived! I’ll definitely bring home a golden son-in-law tonight."
Her tone was filled with confidence and certainty; her delicate makeup looked stunning under the moonlight.
As she reached the entrance of the estate's banquet hall, two tall bodyguards with serious expressions blocked her path.
"Miss, please show us your invitation."
Chi Qiyun did not have an invitation but remained unfazed. She pretended to rummage through her bag before apologetically saying, "I'm sorry; it seems I forgot to bring it."
The two bodyguards exchanged glances but remained polite:
"May I ask who you are, miss?"
Chi Qiyun slightly raised her chin and replied calmly, "The eldest daughter of the Chi family."
Upon hearing the name Chi, the bodyguard's expression instantly shifted to one of respect. After all, the Chi family was a well-known aristocratic clan in the area, and he dared not ask any further questions.
"Oh, it's Miss Chi. Please, go ahead," the bodyguard said, bowing slightly and gesturing for her to enter.
"Thank you," Chi Qiyun nodded and stepped into the banquet hall with graceful strides.
She knew that neither she nor Chi Mujiu had ever appeared together in public, so outsiders would not suspect anything unusual. Today, she intended to find a wealthy husband in the name of her esteemed sister.
Although she did not possess her sister's striking beauty, she was confident in her own looks. With her charm and skills, she was certain she could achieve her goal at this banquet.
"Hey? Look over there! Who is that lady?"
A woman dressed in an extravagant gown whispered to her companion while covering her mouth with a fan.
"I don't recognize her; it seems I've never seen her before."
The companion frowned, her gaze fixed on Chi Qiyun as she tried to find familiar traces in her attire and demeanor.
"Could that be the eldest daughter of the Chi family?" another socialite leaned in, speaking with a hint of curiosity.
"I heard that Miss Chi is a proper beauty, but this one—while not bad-looking—doesn't seem like an Eastern beauty at all."
Someone shook their head, offering a dissenting opinion.
Chi Mujiu embodied the classic standard of Eastern beauty, while Chi Qiyun's allure was more flamboyant and bold.
Chi Qiyun paid no mind to the whispers of the surrounding noblewomen; she understood that their opinions would have no bearing on her plans for the evening.
