After dilly-dallying for a long time, Wen Xinya and Si Yiyan finally arrived an hour late at the banquet that was supposed to start at six.
Duke Moville's Residence was also built in a Baroque architectural style, with traditional Russian red bricks as the foundation and a pointed arch as the roof. It made the entire mansion look opulent and noble.
Two rows of uniformed Russian soldiers stood outside the door of the mansion, all of whom had a gun each. They were tall, burly and stern, keeping a straight face with their eyes fixed in front.
On both sides of the stairs below the guards, two rows of servants dressed in the traditional Russian dress stood welcoming the guests.
Wen Xinya noticed that all of the guests would be halted at the door and strongly advised against bringing any weapons and dangerous items into the venue. The guards would even conduct searches on the guests.
Indeed, they were a prestigious aristocratic family.
