Among them, Monarch Hua Zhifeng of Xuanjin and Speaker Pei Yuanzhi had some last-minute matters to attend to, requiring them to arrive later. Secretary Wang Shuai had already expressed his subtle apologies to Old Master Gu and Old Master An.
Now, only the Guh Family and the Qin Family had yet to make an appearance!
Looking at the still vacant seats, Elder Gu and Elder An glanced at each other and shared a cold smile.
The Guh and Qin families sure put on quite a spectacle! It seemed they wanted to use the engagement ceremony to intimidate them, didn't they?
Humph! They were dreaming!
Under Elder An's directed gaze, Elder Gu nodded in understanding, adjusted the smile on his face, and slowly walked up to the platform.
Seeing this move, the guests below knew that the Gu and An families were no longer inclined to wait. Therefore, they wouldn't be so oblivious as to remind the two old commanders that the Guh and Qin families had not arrived yet.
