"Rong Xia?" Ban Hua had previously heard of the illustrious name of Count Rong, who was matchless in Beijing. Lord Rong Xia was said to be a master of both painting and calligraphy with an appearance surpassing Pan An. This kind of man must be chased by women every time he leaves the house.

"Why? Are you not interested in him?" Princess Anle looked at her with a smile.

"He's a handsome gentleman who is unparalleled in his lifetime that even a talented lady like Shi Feixian has praised personally. As far as I'm concerned, it would be strange if he were to be interested in me." Ban Hua thought very well. "Such a person, by nature, should prefer someone like an immortal fairy. I don't want to join in this party. "

In her memory, she has seen Rong Xia multiple times. But every time she saw that person, she felt that he didn't seem human. Rather, he was like a snow lotus on Tianshan Mountain or the bright moon in the night sky. So, the two of them didn't have any intersection at all.

Seeing that Ban Hua had no affection for Count Cheng An, Princess Anle was relieved: "Fortunately, you are not like some women who act crazy for Rong Xia's sake. I am actually relieved."

Ban Hua had no mood to think about men at this time. As long as she remembered that she would no longer be a Xiangjun after five years, she felt that the whole world was bleak.

At noon, a crab feast was served. Ban Hua sat on the right side of Princess An Le and on the left, sat Kangning Junzhu, the daughter of the Emperor's younger brother. The relationship between her and Ban Hua could only be considered somewhat forced and usually, they were not very intimate. Ban Hua knew that she had a cold temperament and didn't want to interact with her. So she bent her head to eat the fat crab diligently.

"Ban Xiangjun recently looks like she's lost some weight. You must pay attention to your health." one of the noble ladies looked at Ban Hua and said in a peculiar tone, "Do not hold anything in your heart and hurt your body."

"Clothes look better when worn on a thinner body. I never restrain the emotions in my heart and usually retaliate on the spot. "Ban Hua put down her chopsticks, wiped the corners of her mouth and looked up at the noble lady who had spoken. "Which family are you from? Why haven't I seen you before? "

"Hua Hua, she is Master Li's daughter, Li Xiaoru, and she usually spends time with us," Kangning Junzhu who heard her words, smiled and explained softly, "How come you haven't seen her before?"

Ban Hua raised her eyebrows and lazily said, "I've never even noticed her before." Seeing someone wanting to jeer at her broken engagement with Shen Yu while still acting pretentious, Ban Hua had no respect for this kind of person. " Miss Li is dressed so inconspicuously and I only notice lively people. I don't remember those who are not very eye-catching. "

" You ... " Li Xiaoru's eye rims turned red and tears gathered in her eyes seeming about to fall, making her seem like a flower bud caught in a wild gale, very pitiful and pathetic, inducing others to protect her.

"Ban Xiangjun," Seeing this, Shi Feixian knit her brows fleetingly and then smiled towards Ban Hua, "Why should you say such things?"

The table was silent.

Ban Hua bowed her head and seemed to concentrate on tapping on a crab claw. Leaning her head towards Princess Anle, she said, "This crab is quite good. Its meat is fresh and tender."

Princess Anle knew that she was deliberately ignoring Shi Feixian and smiled helplessly. "If you like it, take a basket back home with you later."

The whole table knew that Ban Hua was deliberately pretending not to hear Shi Feixian's words and felt even more disgusted with Ban Hua. Wasn't it just depending on her grandmother being the Eldest Princess that she could put on airs and act so arrogant? Shi Feixian was the granddaughter of the Right Prime Minister who was much more powerful than Ban Hua's father who had only a title but no real power.
