章節 228: A Public Dispute

Everyone's attentions turned towards Nangong Yao and Wang Jingyuan. Jiang Yan, Ji Yingying, and Li Ruozhao looked between them, but no one spoke up. Even Xie Yixiang was mildly shocked by the hostility and didn't immediately know how to respond.

Wang Jingyuan stared Nangong Yao down.

"Nangong Yao, even if I am not from a distinguished family like yours, at least I have manners. With so many people here, I will be the bigger person and let your rude comment slide just this once. This isn't your manor or your party, and so you have absolutely no say in who gets invited. If you have qualms with me being here, go complain directly to the fifth prince and see if he takes your side."
