Chapter 127: Chapter 127 Grand Engagement Banquet 2_1

Sun Yazhi also patted her two tall sons gently and chuckled, "Your Aunt Ma Hongying is right, spare us the hindsight. In the future, you guys, her cousins, will be Xiaoxing’s support. If anyone dares to bully our Xiaoxing, you’ll stand up for her."

The cousins responded in unison, "Do you even have to say it? Of course, we’ll protect Xiaoxing."

"Exactly, anyone who wants to bully Xiaoxing will have to get past us first."

Shen Tianxing felt a warm glow inside when she heard this. Her five cousins had loved her dearly since childhood. Even though they had seen each other less often after they started university and work, the phone calls between them never stopped.

Shen Tianxing also took good care of her five cousins.

It was just a pity that they lacked a Spiritual Root and could only practice the Shen Family Fist she taught them.

Even then, by practicing Ancient Martial Arts, they were already superior to most people.

Although they lacked a Spiritual Root, their talent in practicing Ancient Martial Arts was impressive, which is why they stood out at their respective universities and received good job assignments after graduating.

The eldest cousin Shen Tianrui had returned to Suzhou to work in public security, ready to take over Shen Wenzheng’s connections and network in case there was an opportunity for advancement.

The second cousin, Shen Tianzhi, had just graduated from the Central Military Academy’s graduate program this year. His exceptional academic performance landed him a job in the Capital City military district.

Following that, the third cousin Shen Tianbo and the fourth cousin Shen Tianyu were also graduating. However, Shen Tianxing believed that with their excellent performance, they could secure good jobs without pulling any strings.

The fifth cousin, Shen Tianrui, was still a sophomore at the Central Police College with graduation still a way off.

As for her twin brothers, they possessed a Spiritual Root and could cultivate, which meant they wouldn’t lead an ordinary mundane life; for her favorite twins, the future held endless possibilities.

Shen Tianxing looked at her loving family, her eyes filled with a gentle warmth.

By 9:30, the makeup artist arranged by Dugu Zixi arrived to help Shen Tianxing and the Shen Family members with their makeup and dressing.

They all put on the formal attire that had been prepared.

For over a decade, Shen Tianxing had constantly supplied her relatives with Spirit Food and various nourishing beautifying substances.

All those years of effort had not been in vain.

The Shen Family members looked younger than most people, carrying a faint spiritual aura about them.

Once they donned their formal attire, each exuded composure and a serene air, completely unrecognizable as being from a rural background.

Shen Tianxing was extremely satisfied as she looked at her family members.

Whoever showed her love, Shen Tianxing would always repay them tenfold.

Today’s Shen Tianxing, dressed in a dazzling and splendid outfit and fully adorned, wowed all the Shen Family members and her three good classmates.

Shen Tianxing rarely wore such elaborate attire for banquets. Most of the time, she preferred comfortable and loose casual clothing.

Now in this getup, she gave off a completely different vibe.

Li Xiuxia gazed with admiration and affection, smiling at her gem of a daughter, she said to Shen Wenru, "Wenru, don’t you feel like our girl has come of age?"

Shen Wenru also smiled sentimentally, "Of course! But honestly, I don’t want my precious daughter to grow up. Once she does, she’ll be taken away by someone else."

Shen Wenru’s comment sent everyone into fits of laughter...

Shen Tianxing flashed a shrewd smile and said to her parents, "Dad, Mom, you should think of it this way instead, your daughter is still your daughter, and now you’ll have a son-in-law, who’s like half a son, to honor and cherish you. Isn’t that great? Don’t you agree?"

Aunt Ma Hongying laughed heartily, "Xiaoxing is absolutely right, third brother, and sister-in-law, not only will you have Xiaoxing to dote on you in the future, but you will also have the devotion of a son-in-law, how wonderful!"

Sun Yazhi also nodded and laughed, "Indeed, I also think Zixi is a dutiful child. Third brother and sister-in-law are truly blessed."

Once everyone had finished applying their makeup and got ready, at eleven o’clock, Dugu Zixi came upstairs to invite them down to take their seats.

As the female protagonist, Shen Tianxing needed to have a rehearsal with them first, to prevent any mishaps from happening unexpectedly.

By this time, many guests had already arrived early.

When they saw Dugu Zixi and Shen Tianxing rehearsing, their eyes landed on them and just couldn’t be moved away.

Today, Dugu Zixi was dressed in a custom-made black suit. The impeccably tailored suit on his trim and perfect figure, coupled with that noble and handsome face, made him the very embodiment of an unattainable aristocratic young master in reality.

His features were picturesque, his aura aloof, and his whole presence emitted a ’keep away’ chill and indifference.

His gaze, whenever it fell on the ethereal-looking girl beside him, revealed streaks of tenderness and affection.

Shen Tianxing, in her light purple gown, was also astoundingly beautiful.

Her skin was whiter than snow, fine as porcelain, exuding a moist luster, with soft pink hues on her cheeks, adding a touch of vivid beauty to her delicate appearance.

The starry sparkle in her eyes shimmered with intelligence as she glanced around.

When she looked at the man beside her, her eyes were likewise filled with affection.

Whenever their eyes met, deep feelings surged between them, and the corners of their mouths would both instinctively lift into a knowing smile.

The banquet hosted by the Dugu Family today could be said to have shaken the entire Capital City circle, even spreading throughout the nation.

Journalists from major news media had long set up their equipment, standing by, ready to report on the illustrious identities of each guest.

Although the Dugu Family was the foremost among the noble families, they rarely held grand banquets.

This time, it coincided with Dugu Zixi’s coming-of-age celebration, as well as his engagement to Tianxing, hence the exceptional occurrence of such a grand feast.

The guests they invited were all from the top echelons of society, either incredibly wealthy or powerful.

Families like the Ning Family, despite their wealth, had no power and would normally not have the chance to attend according to usual standards.

It was only because the Dugu Family’s banquet was on such a grand scale that they barely made it onto the guest list, albeit placed at the very end, in the most peripheral area.

The representatives of the Ning Family at the banquet today were the head of the family, Ning Changsheng, his wife Long Lirong, and Ning Fengyi, whom they always believed to be blessed with a phoenix’s destiny.

When Ning Fengyi and her grandparents arrived at the banquet hall, they spotted Shen Tianxing and Dugu Zixi at first glance.

Ning Fengyi’s mind was instantly captivated by Dugu Zixi’s noble and stunning beauty.

Her eyes were filled with heart-shaped symbols.

In her heart, she was excitedly screaming, "Oh my God! She had never seen such a handsome, such charismatic man!"

Was this man the legendary Dugu Zixi?

He truly lived up to his reputation! He was just too attractive, too attractive, too attractive!
