Chapter 151: Expensive Gifts and Face-Slapping Questions
The noble guests who were talking and laughing just a second ago now watched in silence as Qiangwei walked up to Miss Chester.
Rose's petite figure was revealed to everyone. Chester bowed his head to see Rose, who was much shorter than him.
Miss Chester said, "Hello Miss Rose, nice to meet you, I'm Eve Chester, and I'm glad you can come to my wedding."
Duke Roald Chester and Eve's husband, Rothschild Chester, came over and said, "Welcome, Miss Rose."
Then the other nobles bowed and said, "Welcome, Miss Qiangwei/Your Highness."
Seeing that most people were bowing, Qiangwei acted like an emperor and said happily, "No need to be so polite. I'm just here to do you a favor."
Rose tucked Eve's hair behind her ear and said, "What a rare beauty! She's exactly as she described."
What Qiangwei said was confusing, and then the nobles began to come forward and ask about Qiangwei's well-being.
Enter the chat scene and find out from Eve's conversation with the Duke and other nobles.
Eve and Rothschild's marriage was unilaterally made by Rothschild, and Duke Rothschild of Chester only had one daughter, Eve.
Therefore, in order to continue their family line, they must ensure that the surname is the same.
One of the nobles mentioned why Rose wanted to support Lisa's kingdom, and once the topic started, it fell into heated discussion.
Zhiyi and the others had already left for the edge, leaving only Qiangwei alone in the venue. The nobles wanted to see Qiangwei.
The others tactfully avoided him, and Qiangwei also took this opportunity to get to know other nobles.
However, due to the name problem and the large number of people, I couldn't remember a few of them after chatting with them for a long time.
I silently covered my mouth and nose with a fan. I have to say that foreigners have a strong body odor, and even perfume cannot completely solve it.
Westin Nomival watched from a distance as Rose took away his highlight moment, drinking gloomily.
Duke Roald Chester was so brave that he dared to put himself aside for a foreign princess.
"Really! How audacious!"
Westin Nomival directly expressed his grievances loudly, and everyone present fell into a silent atmosphere.
"Who is this?" Qiangwei tilted her head and asked Eve, but judging from the way he pretended, he should be the person who had just cut in on her team.
Duke Rolt Chester spoke before Eve: "This is our Second Prince of Roelcoln, His Royal Highness Westin Nomival."
"I guess it's because I didn't receive any..."
"Bullshit!" Westin Nomival interrupted him and shouted, "Is the Duke of Chester planning to secede from the Roercolon Empire tomorrow, just as the rumors say?"
The Duke of Chester was left stranded by his unreasonable questioning, and he didn't understand where the rumor came from.
I don’t understand why this prince has such a low IQ, he’s like an idiot, how dare the king tell him that he wants to support him.
Seeing that her father was unable to speak, Eve stepped forward and saluted, saying, "That's not the case, Your Highness. You misunderstood."
"Miss Qiangwei was invited by Dean Hess. Because Miss Qiangwei's appearance has always been a mystery, everyone is very curious, and no one can invite her."
Eve explained carefully, "You know Dean Hess, right? She's the one who believes in the ideals of a happy family. It was Miss Qiangwei who invited her here. This is my first wish for me to have a happy family."
Eve said sincerely, "We really want to meet Miss Qiangwei. This is the consensus of everyone at the banquet, and it is definitely not what you think."
After listening to Eve, Westin Nomival was still skeptical, and the other nobles began to explain.
They had indeed come early because Qiangwei was going to attend the dinner, after all, the wedding was to be held tomorrow.
"Who among you present here is not a prince or noble? His Royal Highness Prince Westin Nomival said it lightly." Hess spoke majestically and calmly on the second floor.
"This banquet is attended by princes, princesses, and people above the rank of earl. After all, the Duke of Chester would not invite other irrelevant people. No lower-ranking nobles will be attending either."
Hess retorted, "Are they also betraying their country to attend the banquet?"
"I...you!" Westin Nomival said with evasive eyes, "I didn't mean that. Dean Hess, please don't assume any ill intentions from me!"
Malice? In other words, Westin Nomival had just deliberately made things difficult for the Duke of Chester.
Duke Roald Chester couldn't bear to see his prince in such a disgraceful state and said, "Excuse me, Miss Qiangwei. This prince can be quite blunt sometimes."
Qiangwei sneered and said, "No problem. People are always concerned about face."
Rose threw up her sleeves and walked forward, her powerful aura forcing Westin Nomival to take a few steps back.
After all, Qiangwei would kill people if she said so, and her mood was unpredictable. He was extremely scared now.
"What are you afraid of?" Qiangwei walked up to him and asked, "Do you think I will kill you?"
Seeing him shaking like a cork, Rose didn't intend to tease him and turned around and said, "Everyone, this was just a small unexpected incident, but it's normal for the prince to understand it anyway. After all, this is Miss Eve's wedding dinner."
Qiangwei said proudly, "We've used this place as a forum for political discussions. I know what you're thinking. If that's the case, I'll host a banquet."
"We've also put an end to some of the unpleasant rumors and public opinion. Tonight, we can just chat about some everyday topics."
Rose turned to look at Roald Chester and said contemptuously, "So, you can believe that the Duke of Chester did not betray the country?"
"I..." Westin Nomival has been crushed by Rose public opinion and can't say a word at all.
Specifically, from the moment Qiangwei walked over, he was controlled by an invisible pressure that prevented him from speaking.
It felt like someone was watching him from behind, and his heart was being squeezed, as if his life was about to be extinguished in the next second, making it impossible for him to breathe.
Westin Nomival's mind raced, and then he said gently, "I see. It seems I misunderstood. On behalf of the Royal Family of Roercolon, I sincerely apologize to you, Miss Rose."
Rose smiled magnanimously and said, "This is not your fault, Your Highness Prince Westin Nomival. After all, this rumor started when my carriage started lining up."
After apologizing, Westin Nomival felt that his body was slowly returning to normal. The feeling just now was like being watched and punished by God.
So, Rose is indeed being watched by the gods?
Everything that could threaten her could be noticed by the gods. Westin Nomival recalled her actions just now and felt scared.
If I hadn't apologized just now, would I have been cursed?
"Wow wow wow wow——"
Westin Nomival was curious about what the guests were shouting. Wasn’t Rose in front of him just now?
Why did you suddenly join the crowd?
"Is this - really for us?" Eve happily held the box, which contained glowing beads.
Rose said gently, "Yes, this is called a Night Pearl. It's a pearl that can emit light at night."
"As for the other gifts, I have given them to the steward of the Duke's Mansion."
Everyone around envied Eve. The luster of this jewelry was not simple at first glance, and it exuded nobility.
"What are the other gifts?" Hess asked on the second floor of Wenrou. "Everyone seems a little envious and curious."
Hess was also curious about what Qiangwei gave, after all, it was she who asked Qiangwei to give it.
Qiangwei said embarrassedly, "They're nothing special, just some jade and porcelain vases or something like that. I think you two will like them."
After all, it has been given to others, so the more detailed it is, the worse it will be.
