Stardust Remembrance

Chapter 5 Alien Wedding (3)

The Second Fainting

In the evening, a dinner was held in the banquet hall of the Spyder Palace to celebrate the new marriage of Duke Tatsusa and Princess Loran.

It was said to be proposed by Purple Banquet, and Loran had sort of gotten to know the man initially, totally a master of fanning the flames around, only to see the world in turmoil.

Qing Yue encouraged her not to go to the dinner party, to put up a show, and to give those arrogant and rude guys in Odin a little color.

Loran agrees, but not to put up a front, thinking that no one is happy to see her anyway, so she might as well get some rest and save herself the trouble.

When Anda came to pick her up, Loraine politely stated that she didn't want to attend.

Anda said with a grimace, "This is a special banquet for the princess, and many people want to meet the commander's wife."

Kiyoshi was about to snatch a few words nonchalantly when Loran's heart fluttered and she raised her hand to stop her.

Loran thought for a moment and agreed to attend the banquet, not because "many people want to meet her", but because "she wants to meet many people".

She didn't have the skills to escape like the real Princess Loran, didn't even know how to get on a ship to another planet, and was sure to remain in the Odin Federation for the foreseeable future.

Was she going to have to hide in the house forever and not see anyone just because they didn't like her?

If that happened, she would be even more inches away.

While the real Princess Loran at least had her bloodline homeland and a way back, she had nothing.

Since there was no way back, if she didn't move forward, she would only have one way to die.

No matter how much she resisted in her heart, she had to go out, learn more about the world, meet more people, and learn more, only then, one day, she would truly be qualified to not see whoever she didn't want to see, and that would be a kind of high profile refusal, rather than today's low profile avoidance.

In one corner of the hall, six men were either standing or sitting talking, occasionally an acquaintance went over to say hello, the atmosphere was very relaxed and cordial.

When Luo Lan approached, the picture changed suddenly, they all looked at her in silence, their eyes cold, as if sizing up a small animal that didn't know how to die and suddenly intruded into their territory.

Loran didn't want to make a fool of herself, but, in the entire hall, she only knew them, moreover, their attitude towards her determines the entire Odin's attitude towards her, and the hall full of people will look at their attitude to act, since this is the case, so let's take it on the chin and go straight to the dragon.

Loran curtsied and greeted with a smile, "Good evening!"

Everyone's gazes swept in unison towards Tatsusa, who sipped his wine as if he hadn't heard it and didn't react in the slightest, and everyone swept their gazes away in unison again, none of them responding either.

In front of everyone's eyes, being treated like dust, it was impossible to say that it wasn't embarrassing.

But Loraine did not have the capital to brush her sleeve away, and could only laugh to herself and think: the princess was not treated as well as a prisoner, at least when she was in prison, as a felon, as long as she opened her mouth, the judge would-listen attentively.

Loran looked like she didn't feel everyone's ignorance at all, smiled, and continued, "I'm Princess Loran of the Al Empire, I just became Duke Tatsusa's wife this morning, it's a pleasure to meet you all, you can just call me Loran."

Still, no one spoke, some people gawked at her with interest, some concentrated on their food, and some looked away absentmindedly.

Luo Lan gritted her teeth, bypassed Zi Yan, and took a few steps forward, extending her hand to a man with elegant features and a gentlemanly demeanor, "Hello!"

He was admiring the people dancing on the dance floor, and after freezing for a moment, he raised his eyes to look at Luo Lan and hesitated to respond.

"Hello!" Loraine held out her hand and said it again.

She tried to make her tight smile natural, but her facial muscles seemed to stiffen even more.

Amid all the various stares, her hand stubbornly stretched out, and the smile on her face seemed light, like a moon shadow in the water that seemed to shatter with the slightest touch as the ripples swirled up, but then would remain as the ripples subsided.

The man finally stood up, took her hand, and said gently, "Hello, I am Duke Chu Mo of the fourth district of the Odin Federation, you can call me Chu Mo, it's an honor to meet you."

But in just a few minutes, Loran felt like a century had passed, her hand was trembling lightly, Chu Mo must have felt it, but did not show a trace of difference.

By the time he let go of his hand, Loran had adjusted his emotions and smiled as he extended his hand to the man beside him - a tall, lanky man with short, trimmed red hair, roots that towered like needles, and thick eyebrows with a heart of gold.

With resistance, he shook Loran's hand in a slapdash manner, and said in a jarring voice, "Hello, I'm Duke Baili Cang of the Fifth District of the Odin Confederation, you can call me Baili Cang."

With these two beginnings, the latter seemed to go smoothly.

Zuo Qubai of the third district, with blonde half-length curly hair that was bland and casual, had been leaning crookedly against the sofa and didn't even stand up to shake hands with her.

Brown Li in the seventh district, brown hair tended not a single mess, handsome features, but thin lips pursed, through the mean, teal brown eyes gloomy and cold, when stared at by him, it is like being stared at by a venomous snake so that people almost do not dare to meet him in the eye.

Baili Cang and Zuo Qubai both casually followed Chu Mo's way of introducing themselves, but he was a maverick, and without waiting for Loran to reach out his hand, he briefly said, "Seventh District, Brown Li." There was no intention of shaking hands in the slightest.

Luo Lan knowingly said "Hello" and immediately walked towards the next person.

Purple Feast took the initiative to warmly extend his hand, "Hello, I'm Purple Feast from the sixth district." He raised his hand and pointed at Tatsuya, asking intriguingly, "Does this person still need him to introduce himself?"

Luo Lan calmly said, "No need, it's written on our marriage documents, the first district, Chen Sha."

Zi Yan and Zuo Qubai both let out a giggle, and Zi Yan squeezed her eyebrows and said, "Cinnabar, won't you introduce your lady to the others?"

Luo Lan couldn't help but look at Chen Sha expectantly, he pressed on, picking up a fruit in his hand and stuffing it into Zi Yan's mouth. Purple Feast grunted and whimpered, saying no more words.

Loran's anticipation turned into disappointment.

Suddenly, the dancers stopped, and a woman wearing a white shirt, black pencil skirt, coiled hair, and black-framed glasses crossed the dance floor and walked over.

Her face was serious, her dress was rigorous, and while she walked, she was still thinking about something, like a scholar who came to an academic conference and went to the wrong place in confusion. However, the people on the dance floor were not the least bit displeased, and all gave her a respectful way.

The woman's eyes landed on their side, and her eyes lit up and smiled, as if she had seen someone that she had missed terribly, and excitedly accelerated her steps.

Luo Lan immediately moved to the side, given the last fainting incident, she had already deeply understood that a good dog does not block the road and never stands in the wrong position.

Beside her was Chen Sha, the woman was rushing towards Chen Sha. Loran instantly brainstormed a lot of dog stories, telling herself that no matter what happens later, she must remain calm and wait and see what happens.

The woman smiled like a flower, swooped over, and hugged ...... her.

Luo Lan's mouth turned into an "o" shape.

Calm down, calm down, must keep calm ......

The woman enthusiastically finished her face-to-face salute with Loran, still unable to let go of her, holding her hand tightly, seeing her from head to foot and back again.

Loran was creeped out and couldn't stand still any longer, "And you are?"

"You must be Princess Loran, so beautiful, intelligent, graceful, and lovely. I should have rushed to meet you the first time, but I was held back by the trials. As soon as the trial was over, I rushed here immediately, I hope you don't mind ......"

Oh, Loran laughed dryly, not sure where her dumbfounded self could be seen as smart and elegant. She looked helpfully at Violet Feast, who coughed and said, "Duke Fenglin of the Second District, in charge of the Federation's scientific research and education."

Loran came to a realization and immediately held Feng Lin's hand tightly, so this was the legendary Frankenstein who would slice her up and study her. Her apple tree treatment was late, but it finally came!

Feng Lin said with concern, "You just came to Odin, if you don't fit in anywhere just tell me, and I'll find a way to fix it." She swept a glance at the six men, "Anyone who wants to bully you, tell me and I promise not to beat him to death!"

Luo Lan was practically in tears, Sister, why didn't you show up earlier?

Feng Lin asked enthusiastically, "Have you had dinner? What do you want to eat? I'll go get it for you."

"I'm not hungry, I just want to get to know everyone."

"I'll introduce you." Feng Lin took Loran's arm and led her towards the crowd in the hall.

Luo Lan was a bit villainous and couldn't help but turn around and look at Chen Sha: Humph! If you don't help introduce me, naturally someone else will do it for me, not relying on you!

Under Feng Lin's enthusiastic help, the people at the banquet, Luo Lan recognized a little bit.

A time really can't remember so many faces, but, well at least first mixed a familiar face, so as not to the future of two eyes.

Because of the previous actions of several dukes, coupled with Feng Lin's enthusiastic introduction, everyone was no longer so repulsive to her and was much friendlier. Even if it's feigned, Loran is satisfied, between people, except for the closest and dearest, who must be sincere for sincere, the rest of the people are not all polite in the play.

Feng Lin ran into an acquaintance, looked at the other side, and seemed to have something to say to Feng Lin, Luo Lan was just a little thirsty, said "Excuse me", and went to find a drink.

Luo Lan stood in front of the beverage counter, looking at the wide selection, a moment of uncertainty.

Violet Feast walked up to her, "Answer me a question and I'll tell you which drink is good."

"What question?"

"Why is it that when I'm standing next to you, closest to you, and considered the most familiar, you bypass me and go to greet Chu Mo?"

"I don't have confidence that you would pay attention to me, and even if you did, I'm only afraid that you would tease me and make a fool out of me."

Zi Yan narrowed her peach blossom eyes and smiled noncommittally, "You have confidence that Chu Mo will pay attention to you?"

"Not really, it's just that compared to others, he's more likely."

"Why?"

Luo Lan felt that some words were not good to say, and said vaguely, "It's just a feeling."

At that time, Zi Yan, Zuo Qubai, and Brown Li had all been looking at her, whether with a smile or indifference, all indicating that her embarrassment had left them indifferent. At any time, at the scene of a disaster, it was the exuberant onlookers who were the most indifferent.

Baili Cang had been leisurely eating and drinking, showing that he was indifferent and had no attitude in this matter.

Chen Sha and Chu Mo didn't look at her, but one of them had empty eyes, which was indifference; the other was enjoying the beautiful picture, avoiding Luo Lan's embarrassment.

Zi Yan surveyed Luo Lan meaningfully, ''The feeling is quite accurate! Chu Mo is the best talker among us, and those who are not familiar with us are often confused by Baili's silly smile and my stunning beauty."

Loran stared at him breathlessly and nodded at the drink station, signaling him to cut the crap and make good on his promise.

Violet Feast chose a drink that was a mix of blue and green with an ethereal shimmer and handed it to her.

Loran was hesitant to drink it.

Violet Feast bristled and asked for the same drink, finishing it in one gulp in front of her and turning the cup upside down.

Luo Lan picked up the cup and took a sip, sour and sweet, quite delicious, just about to thank him, suddenly the sky turned like something exploded with a bang in her head, her eyes went black, she didn't know anything.
