Chapter 240
Everyone's attention was attracted by the girl not far away.
Her long black hair was simply tied up with a ruby hairpin, and a few strands of black hair fell from her temples, making her palm-sized snow-white face even more delicate and beautiful.
She was wearing an elegant and simple beige strapless long dress that outlined her graceful figure. The layers of white gauze flashed star-like light as she walked.
The girl has light makeup, black hair, fair skin, red lips, white teeth, and a slender neck. She is breathtakingly beautiful.
Although she had no jewelry on her ears or neck, she easily outshined Emily who was dressed up.
No, it should be said that anyone would pale in comparison to her.
The group of top males on her side and behind her were tall and handsome, wearing well-ironed suits.
They are either abstinent and dignified, or noble and imposing, or gentle and elegant, or flamboyant and uninhibited, or cool and handsome, or extremely beautiful...
Each one of them, taken individually, is perfect enough to make people blush and their hearts beat faster, and is unattainable.
They surrounded her and followed her like the princess's knights and the gods' believers.
Even though they were both girls, Tia was deeply stunned by Shen Yinyin.
She glanced at Emily, whose face was livid, and smiled at her companions, "See? This is what we call natural beauty!"
In the corner, Asus and Locke also looked deeply at the girl they loved.
Shen Yinyin seemed to sense something, her long and fine eyelashes trembled, she raised her head and looked around, but did not see the face that appeared in her mind.
Instead, the extremely luxurious decoration of the palace banquet made her frown slightly.
There is nothing wrong with the luxury of the palace dinner.
But now the empire has just lost the eighth star, just experienced a disastrous defeat, and has not even provided any comfort or compensation to the wounded and sacrificed soldiers, as well as their families. Is it really appropriate to be so extravagant?
Looking at those dignitaries who were dressed in luxurious clothes and toasting each other, Shen Yinyin frowned even more tightly.
Is this really... a banquet held to commemorate the deceased?
Why didn't she see any soldiers who had lost an arm or fought to the death for the Empire at this banquet?
Why is it that wherever we look, we see more arrogant people like Emily?
Seeing that Shen Yinyin seemed unhappy, the people who had surrounded Emily just now all walked towards Shen Yinyin.
Even though they knew that the dozen or so males around Shen Yinyin were all top-notch in both strength and appearance.
But there are still countless men who hope that they can be the lucky one and become Shen Yinyin's husband, even if such hope is very slim.
Emily was so angry at being ignored that she almost bit her teeth off.
Will is a loser. He still can't develop a drug to improve his level!
She naturally couldn't and wouldn't sit still and let Shen Yinyin keep suppressing her...
Emily hid the viciousness in her eyes and looked around. When she found that the people she arranged were also obsessed with looking at that bitch Shen Yinyin, she hated Shen Yinyin even more.
"You useless piece of shit! Didn't you hear me calling you?!"
The scolded waiter raised his head. Under his ordinary face, his red eyes were cold and deep.
Emily didn't notice the waiter's difference, and she put the drug in one of the glasses of wine right in front of him.
"Listen, bring this glass of wine to Shen Yinyin. Once it's done, you can have as many star coins as you want. If you mess it up, you'll lose your life!"
The waiter's eyelashes trembled, and veins bulged on his hands as he held the metal tray with such force.
But he didn't say anything. Instead, he lowered his head respectfully, holding the wine and approaching Shen Yinyin.
Asus witnessed everything, his long eyebrows slightly raised, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he looked like he was enjoying the show.
Shen Yinyin was feeling depressed when a strange young voice called her softly, "Miss Shen."
Shen Yinyin turned around and saw that it was the waiter, so she raised her hand and wanted to grab a glass of wine.
But the waiter leaned slightly, suddenly came closer, and before she could, he held up a glass of wine and handed it to her.
When Shen Yinyin took it, the other person's hand "accidentally" touched her fingertips.
It was clearly a fleeting touch of skin, but Shen Yinyin still had a strange yet familiar feeling.
She raised her eyelashes and discovered that the waiter in front of her had a pair of beautiful and bright red eyes like Locke's.
But the face and voice were unfamiliar.
Thinking of Locke, she was stunned for a moment.
Duke Lebert, who was standing by, had just sent away those playboys who were coveting Shen Yinyin. When he turned around, he saw his young wife looking at another man.
"Yin Yin, what's wrong?"
Shen Yinyin came back to her senses and shook her head, "Nothing."
After saying that, she did not forget to thank the waiter: "Thank you, you have a pair of beautiful eyes."
Upon hearing this, the other party's eyes brightened.
Duke Lebert declared his sovereignty by wrapping his arms around his young wife's slender waist, lowered his head, and said in a low voice: "Be good, don't hook up with others..."
The warm breath sprayed on her ears, and the slightly cool ice-blue light fell on her shoulders. Shen Yinyin's eyelashes fluttered, and her ears felt a little hot.
She pursed her pink lips and whispered, "I didn't."
Duke Lebert looked at the docile and gentle girl in his arms, his Adam's apple rolling. He held her face gently and kissed her snow-white and soft cheek.
"Look at me, aren't my eyes prettier than his..."
Such a noble and handsome man would actually be jealous.
Shen Yinyin's heartbeat quickened under the burning gaze of Duke Leibert, and she nodded repeatedly: "It's beautiful, not only the Duke's eyes, but everything about him is beautiful..."
After coaxing the person, Shen Yinyin breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the wine glass to take a sip.
The things in the palace are naturally excellent.
This red wine is sweet, mellow and rich in aroma, and tastes more like juice.
Emily, who was not far away, watched Shen Yinyin drink a few sips and smiled with satisfaction.
He even managed to be a little nice to the waiter beside him: "Well done, you will definitely get a reward."
As she spoke, she picked up another glass of wine from the tray and drank the red wine in the glass while thinking about how to humiliate Shen Yinyin later.
Emily didn't notice that the waiter beside her had frighteningly cold red eyes...
