Chapter 173: Release Them and I’ll Go with You (3)_1
"Brother Qing, look, those are the two brothers from the Luo Family," Shangguan You said with a faint smile. Her brother should be a bit safer with the Luo brothers around.
"Yes, they’re working. Let’s not disturb them," Shangguan Qing said, nodding towards the two men in greeting.
"Brother Qing, where are Grandfather and the others? Why can’t I see them? Let’s go find them," Shangguan You said, searching the crowd for Shangguan Zhi and the others. No matter what, she wouldn’t allow what she saw last night to happen again.
"You, Grandfather and the others are in their private rooms, of course. They’ll only come out for a brief appearance when the ball begins, and then they’ll leave," Shangguan Qing explained with a gentle smile, addressing her concerns.
"Let’s go find them."
"With so many people here, don’t you want to meet a few? Look at that young lady," Shangguan Qing said, gesturing towards Shangguan Rou and Li Meisu. They were surrounded by many young gentlemen, and Shangguan Rou was smiling gently and demurely.
"You, don’t you want to be the center of attention, admired by many men like them?"
"Are any of these men as handsome as Brother Qing? Do they have Father’s steadfast character?" Shangguan You glanced at Yu Zifeng, who was surrounded by women, and then at the men around Shangguan Rou and the others, speaking nonchalantly. Men... she really didn’t think much of them.
"Of course not."
"Since they’re not, why should I get to know them? Why should I want their admiration? Instead of wasting time like that, I’d rather spend more time with Grandfather, Eldest Uncle, Father, and Brother Qing," Shangguan You said with a light laugh as they walked towards the private rooms beside the dance floor.
