Chapter 155 Xue Ke's Smooth Things Out
Xue Ke, who was eating melon, noticed Xue Qinghe's gesture. She first looked at Ning Rongrong who was silent, then at Ye Xi who was calm and composed. Finally, she decided to start smoothing things over with Ye Xi.

The reason for choosing Ye Xi first is very simple. From a feeling point of view, between Ye Xi and Ning Rongrong, Xue Ke feels that Ye Xi is easier to talk to.

Xue Ke stood up from her seat and walked towards Ye Xi.

Coming to Ye Xi's side, Xue Ke took Ye Xi's arm, leaned close to Ye Xi's ear and whispered.

"Xiao Xi, why are you acting like this young lady?"

"Who in the entire Tiandou Imperial Family doesn't know about the relationship between you and my brother?"

"Besides, who are you? You are the head of the Frost and Snow Pavilion, and your status is the same as her father's. If you get angry with her here, you will appear petty."

"This is a dinner party hosted by the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Just consider it as a courtesy to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect."

Xue Ke lowered her voice so low that only Ye Xi and Xue Ke could hear it.

Feeling the hot air blowing in his ears, Ye Xi felt his ears itchy and his face turned slightly red unconsciously.

"Xue Ke, you saw it too. It's not that I don't give face to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, but Ning Rongrong is not happy to see me."

Ye Xi also lowered his voice.

"Of course I know that."

"But this is a banquet hosted by the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect after all. On the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's territory, we naturally have to give the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's little princess some face."

While Xue Ke was speaking, she also secretly glanced at Ning Rongrong.

Hearing this, Ye Xi did not say anything else, but nodded gently to Xue Ke, and took the lead in withdrawing his gaze from Ning Rongrong and no longer looking at Ning Rongrong.

After Ye Xi withdrew his gaze, the atmosphere in the entire banquet hall seemed to become a lot more relaxed.

After seeing Ye Xi retract his gaze first, Ning Rongrong turned her gaze to Princess Xue Ke. She was very curious about what Xue Ke had just said to Ye Xi and what she would say to her next.

As the little princess of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Rongrong could naturally see that Xue Ke was trying to smooth things over.

Under Ning Rongrong's gaze, Xue Ke stood up from Ye Xi's side and walked straight towards her.

"Rongrong, you invited Xiaoxi to the banquet. As the host of the banquet, how can you be angry with a guest?"

"Look at the expressions of the people in the banquet hall."

"And isn't it just about handing me a drink?"

"It's not worth it for such a small matter. Just give our royal family some face and take a step back."

Xue Ke leaned close to Ning Rongrong's ear and spoke in a low voice.

"You saw it just now."

"She has to get involved in everything. I just brought a cup of tea to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but she came over to get involved. What does she mean?"

Ning Rongrong whispered to Xue Ke, while her eyes quietly looked in the direction of Ye Xi.

"Oh, that's normal."

"You just returned to Tiandou City not long ago, so you may not know that during this period of time, Xiaoxi and my brother have had a very special relationship."

"You just stood up without warning, so it's understandable that she moved."

Xue Ke's voice sounded a little indifferent.

"Ah."

Ning Rongrong snorted coldly, withdrew her gaze from Ye Xi, and looked at Xue Ke in front of her.

"What did you just say to Ye Xi?"

Ning Rongrong asked Xue Ke in a low voice.

Hearing this, Xue Ke's eyes flickered a few times and she said, "Of course I'm helping you talk about Xiao Xi."

"This is the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. As a guest, there is no reason for us to get angry with the host. That would be too disrespectful to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect."

Xue Ke answered very seriously, as if it was true. "Are you talking about her?"

Ning Rongrong's eyes were full of suspicion.

Although she and Ye Xi did not get along, Ning Rongrong still knew something about Ye Xi's situation.

With Ye Xi's current status, even Emperor Xue Ye would have to give Ye Xi some courtesy, so Ning Rongrong expressed deep doubt about what Xue Ke said.

Looking at Ning Rongrong's suspicious eyes, Xue Ke just nodded seriously, and didn't say anything else.

After waiting for a while and seeing that Xue Ke had no intention of talking anymore, Ning Rongrong turned around and walked towards the main seat.

Looking at Ning Rongrong walking towards the main seat, Xue Ke first looked at Xue Qinghe, then at Ye Xi, and finally walked towards Ye Xi.

"Why are you here again?"

"You're not going back to your brother's place?"

Looking at Xue Ke approaching, Ye Xi asked softly.

"I prefer staying with you, Xiaoxi, than with my brother."

A smile appeared on Xue Ke's face and she looked at Ye Xi with a smile.

"Well, then you stay here with me."

Ye Xi said something nonchalantly, and slowly tasted the delicacy in front of him.

After Ning Rongrong and Ye Xi's issues were resolved, the banquet continued.

However, everyone in the banquet hall would look at Ye Xi and Ning Rongrong from time to time.

……

And on the other side.

In a grand and majestic room, Ning Fengzhi sat in the main seat with a gentle smile on his face.

Chen Xin and Gu Rong sat on the seats on the left and right sides of Ning Fengzhi respectively. Further down were Ling Yuan and the elders who accompanied other people to the dinner.

Compared to the banquet hall on the other side, the atmosphere here is undoubtedly much better.

Almost everyone was chatting and laughing.

The only exception was Ling Yuan, who said nothing.

"Your Majesty Ling Yuan, is the food in front of you not to your liking, or is there something wrong with our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's hospitality?"

Ning Fengzhi looked at Ling Yuan and his voice was very gentle, giving people a feeling like a spring breeze.

"Sect Master Ning is too polite."

"I'm just a little worried about the situation in the banquet hall."

"After all, the relationship between my Pavilion Master and Miss Ning is not very harmonious."

Ling Yuan shook her head slightly and answered very naturally.

"Your Majesty Ling Yuan, you don't have to worry about the situation in the banquet hall."

"I have arranged for someone to be outside the banquet hall and keep an eye on the situation inside."

"If anything bad happens, someone will report it immediately."

Ning Fengzhi waved his hand gently, indicating that Ling Yuan didn't need to worry.

But his own eyes involuntarily turned towards the direction of the banquet hall.

"Since Sect Master Ning has made all the arrangements, I feel relieved."

Ling Yuan's voice was calm.

What really made her feel at ease was naturally not Ning Fengzhi's arrangement, but the ghost leopard who had been hiding in the dark and responsible for protecting Ye Xi's safety.
