Chapter 249: Chapter 249: Imbalance

Xu Hesi couldn’t help but feel jealous of Liu Mengyan just thinking about it.

She didn’t even know what method Liu Mengyan used to make Jiang Mochuan so devoted to her, with the heir of a top family marrying down to her.

No ordinary male would do that, that’s not just any ordinary marriage.

Normally, even if Liu Mengyan was to marry into the Jiang Family, she couldn’t reach the Jiang Family’s status.

She also admired Jiang Mochuan, but it was only from afar, and she didn’t even dare to think of anything beyond that.

Liu Mengyan not only dared to think, but she achieved it.

Liu Mengyan liked to wear plain white clothes, looking extraordinarily pure, her mother also advised her to wear plain clothes at palace banquets, saying it looked good.

"Mother, so many females now imitate Liu Mengyan by wearing plain clothes, imitating that, there’s nothing special to see anymore."

The Xu Family Master said sternly, "What do you understand? Liu Mengyan’s style of dressing can capture the attention of those outstanding males, indicating they like this style, prefer females dressed plainly and simply."

"This kind of temperament is much favored by outstanding males; now everyone dislikes flamboyant and flashy clothing, you better not fall behind."

Currently, the aesthetic standard in the Beast Emperor City follows Liu Mengyan’s style of dressing, and the Xu Family Master requires Xu Hesi to do the same.

"This style of dressing makes you appear pure and kind."

"Even if you have to act, you better act well, once you’ve married a Beast Husband, and everything is settled, it will be up to you."

Although the Xu Family Master places high expectations on Xu Heping, Xu Heping ultimately has to marry out, and inheriting the family business will fall to Xu Hesi.

Thus, the Xu Family Master hopes Xu Hesi will marry a male with a strong background and identity as a Beast Husband.

"Even if you don’t possess Liu Mengyan’s skills, you could still learn from Dong Baishang; after marrying Duan Tingxuan, the Dong Family received a considerable boost, and the dowry provided by the Duan Family to Duan Tingxuan was extremely generous."

"Even if later Dong Baishang no longer kept up appearances, the Duan Family couldn’t do anything about it; after Duan Tingxuan married into the Dong Family, he essentially became part of the Dong Family and had to consider the Dong Family’s interests."

The Xu Family Master was truly envious, thinking both of them possessed some skills.

Looking at Xu Hesi now, still a bit disappointed, mainly because Xu Hesi’s temperament is somewhat arrogant, not like Liu Mengyan and Dong Baishang who can keep up appearances.

These two exceptions gave many females from lower backgrounds hope, starting to think of ways to marry a Beast Husband with strong identity and background.

Xu Hesi said, "Mother, it’s not that easy, our Xu Family’s status, getting close to those noble males, there’s no way, just thinking of approaching doesn’t mean you can, we hardly ever see those people."

The Xu Family Master said, "Young Master Yan of the Yan Family, Mr. Wei of the Wei Family, these are the top heirs of the aristocratic families, even the Princes can’t compare; if you could catch their attention, our Xu Family would be different."

"Mother dared not think of it before, but now she also wants to dream, to dream a little."

Mentioning Yan Zhaoye and Wei Jin’an, these two beastmen, Xu Hesi’s heart started to beat fiercely.

Such figures, just dreaming about them excited her overwhelmingly.

"Mother, it’s said that the Young Master of Moon Clan is like a celestial being, will he appear at the palace banquet?"

Xu Hesi thought someone like the Young Master Yue, even just seeing him once would be her fortune.

The Xu Family Master looked at her daughter’s blushing expression and poured cold water over her thoughts, saying, "Don’t even think about someone like the Young Master of Moon Clan; their status is special, and the Young Master of Moon Clan has returned to the Southern Border, so you can’t see him."

"Not even an order from the Empress could move them; they isolate themselves from the world, don’t participate in court battles, the State Preceptor position can’t move them either."

Talking about the Moon Clan, the Xu Family Master’s voice instinctively softened, fearing to say anything disrespectful.

Normal beastmen instinctively respect and honor people from the Moon Clan.

The Xu Family Master was no exception.

Xu Hesi seemed to remember something, jealousy flashed in her eyes, "Then why could Su Muyao marry the Young Master of Moon Clan as a Beast Husband back then?"

About this, her heart was extremely unbalanced, why?

The Xu Family Master shook his head and said, "I don’t know this either."

Xu Heping listened to his mother and sister talk from beginning to end without saying anything, his expression calm and indifferent, as if the palace banquet had nothing to do with him.

...

In a blink, the day of the palace banquet at the Imperial Palace arrived, the banquet was set to start at dusk, with performances scheduled.

Generally, everyone enters the Imperial Palace steadily in the afternoon.

Su Mansion

Su Muyao and Wen Nanxi had their meal early at lunch and began getting ready.

Wen Nanxi’s attire was simple and easy; mainly, it was Su Muyao.

When Su Muyao donned the dress personally crafted by Hua Linye for her, all five of them were amazed.

Su Muyao was already extremely beautiful, but dressed like this, her beauty was brought to the utmost.

As if the Nine Heavens Profound Lady descended into the mortal world, so noble and dazzling, so stunning that they couldn’t take their eyes off her.

Su Muyao noticed Wen Nanxi and the others seemed like statues, motionless.

"What’s wrong? Does it feel somewhat different from usual attire?"

Su Muyao usually dressed casually, unlike now, which was more formal.

Hearing Su Muyao’s words, Wen Nanxi and the others returned to their senses and said, "Yes, it’s different, but wife is very beautiful, really beautiful."

Shen Ci’an’s long narrow eyes shone with a spurious brilliance, "What to do? I don’t want our wife to attend the palace banquet if she’s so beautiful; how can it be okay for others to see her?"

Xiao Jihan worriedly pinched his brow and said, "I’m really afraid others might want to fight for her."

Hua Linye, having seen wife try on the dress before, was prepared.

Originally, he wanted to do something for wife, but at this moment, thinking about wife’s attendance at the palace banquet, with almost all outstanding young males in the Beast Emperor City present, a sour taste arose within him that he couldn’t suppress.

Su Muyao said, "If you don’t like it, I’ll change clothes."

For her, the palace banquet wasn’t more important than her Beast Husbands’ feelings.

Everyone shook their head and said, "That’s not okay, you must dazzle the entire venue."

Wen Nanxi gently suggested, "Wife should sit down first; I’ll help you style your hair."

Wen Nanxi knew Su Muyao wasn’t good at styling her hair; usually, Su Muyao’s hair was styled simply.

But a palace banquet is a formal occasion, and indeed a formal hairstyle is necessary.

She truly wasn’t adept at it.

"Alright, then you help me."

Su Muyao trusted Wen Nanxi greatly.

Hua Linye asked, "Wen Nanxi, you actually know how to style for a palace banquet? Why didn’t you mention it before?"

Wen Nanxi explained, "I’ve just learned it recently."

He had recently specialized in study and practice.

Shen Ci’an allowed a slight smile to slip from his lips, "You’re always so attentive, considering things more thoroughly than we do."

They thought about preparing clothes and accessories but hadn’t thought of styling hair.

Wen Nanxi extended his hand, gently styling Su Muyao’s hair, letting those silky black strands slip through his palm, irresistibly captivated by them.

Xiao Jihan and the others watched Wen Nanxi’s fingers weave through wife’s hair and began to envy him.

Mei Qingchen tightened his hand at his side, wanting to formally enter a contract with wife, but hadn’t found the right opportunity yet.

Wen Nanxi’s fingertip accidentally brushed her neck, a cool touch like jade, making Su Muyao’s sensitive body tremble slightly, as if her Heart String had been scalded.

Wen Nanxi looked at her fair, jade-like neck skin, his breath tightening.
