After several rounds of negotiation, Stephen finally agreed to let them go tonight. However, they must participate in the entire banquet process tonight.
The full process included having a meal with all the guests present and then dancing together afterward.
Although Shen Xian was speechless, it was the best result they could achieve up to now. Stephen had a capricious temperament and if the negotiation persisted, and it became noisy, wouldn't all his previous efforts be wasted?
Gu Chen held her hand and whispered in her ear, "It's okay, an hour or two will pass quickly."
He understood what she was thinking.
Shen Xian looked at him, what else could she do? If Gu Chen could endure three days, why couldn't she persist for an hour or two?
"Mhm."
The sweet nothings exchanged between the two were caught in Fiona's eyes. It was obvious she was still angry. The red-lipped, wavy-haired woman didn't even eat her meal, but instead got up and walked straight to Gu Chen.
