Zhuang Hao and Qi Shaorong's engagement caused a sensation throughout the Imperial Capital.

Zhuang Hao was a well-known talent in the Imperial Capital, and when Qi Shaorong later came to the capital, he also became a famous figure in the city. Their engagement attracted the interest of countless nobles and important officials.

The Zhuang Family attached great importance to this engagement, and Feiyue Restaurant, the largest restaurant in the Imperial Capital, was selected as the location to hold the banquet.

In the lobby, many guests were holding wine cups while walking around.

"Why hasn't Qi Shaorong arrived yet, don't tell me he's going to stand Zhuang Hao up."

"It's possible! Previously at Luohua Pavilion, when Zhuang Hao announced that they were getting betrothed, Qi Shaorong didn't seem too thrilled."

"If Qi Shaorong really stands Zhuang Hao up, then there'll be a good show to watch."

"It seems that the people from the Qi Family haven't arrived yet either."

"Qi Shaorong doesn't even consider himself a part of the Qi Family at all, if the Qi Family comes here they'll only end up embarrassing themselves."

"Bi Liuyun is here! Since Bi Liuyun is here, Qi Shaorong should be here too."

"That's right, Bi Liuyun is one of Qi Shaorong's close subordinates!"

"Bi-qinshi, you're finally here." Zhuang Qian greeted him.

Bi Liunyun looked at Zhuang Qian and said, "Yep! What's the matter with you, little fatty, your forehead is covered in sweat."

Zhuang Qian smiled dryly and said, "I'm hot!"

"It's so cold today, yet you're sweating this much, you must have a lot of internal heat [1]! Are you on drugs or something?" Bi Liuyun asked.

Zhuang Qian scratched his head and said, "Bi-qinshi, stop joking around, why did you only arrive just now!"

"It's not too late! Important people always arrive last, to better show off their status!" Bi Liuyun said.

Zhuang Qian wiped away the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "Does Fourth Young Master Qi also think this way!"

Bi Liuyun nodded and said, "Of course, Young Master is even more important than me."

Zhuang Qian, "...No wonder he's not here yet. Could it be that he's not planning on showing up at all?"

"That... It's possible!"

"Ah!" Zhuang Qian cried out in alarm.

Bi Liuyun smiled and said, "I'm just kidding."

Zhuang Qian: "..." All the wicked people around the Ghost Doctor seemed to like to joke around a lot! But this kind of joke wasn't funny at all, ok?

"We're here, we're here." Yi Fan and Qi Shaorong walked in.

According to the rules of marriage in this country, both of the people getting betrothed have to ask an elder from their side to help link their hands together, signifying that they'll be together forever.

As the person escorting Qi Shaorong, Yi Fan grabbed Qi Shaorong's hand and passed his hand over to Zhuang Hao.

Zhuang Renquan managed a smile with difficulty and smiled at Yi Fan. The elder chosen from the Zhuang Family's side was Zhuang Renquan. Zhuang Renquan never would've thought that one day he and the abandoned son of the Yi Family would be standing on equal footing with each other.
