Xiao Ning'Er was not the only one with such thoughts; at this moment, the family members of many high-ranking court officials shared the same perspective.
Xiao Ning'Er emerged from the banquet. It was only when she reached the foot of the stage that she realized other young ladies from different families had also come forward.
Xiao Ning'Er recognized two of the young ladies who had come forward with her. One was Song Yingxue, the daughter of the Left Prime Minister's household; although not his biological daughter, she was his niece.
Xiao Ning'Er frowned slightly. Song Yingxue silently took a step back and stood to one side, yielding.
The other young lady, however, seemed to lack such perception. This was Shi Ning of the Shi Family. Shi Ning was the daughter of Marquis Ting Sheng's Mansion.
