Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback novel Chapter 487

Chapter 487: 268 Peach Blossom Face (3rd Update)_2

After some probing, these people were all ambiguously unclear in their attitude toward the two.

Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye could see their concerns and, to avoid more trouble, Bai Ye simply said, "We’ve only come here to look for someone, and now that we’ve found them, we’ll naturally leave."

His words seemed to alleviate the big shots’ worries. However, hearing that they would soon leave, the big shots couldn’t help but feel regretful.

Besides Guan Rong, although the others were strong, they were not as powerful as Guan Rong. They all admired Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye, who seemed capable of challenging Guan Rong, and hoped to recruit them.

It was a pity such experts could not be employed by them – an undeniable regret!

Nevertheless, the regret was fleeting; for them, the departure of Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye might turn out to be a blessing in disguise.

Once their concerns were relieved, the conversation became more relaxed. Fang Yuxin, impatient with dealing with these people, left everything to Bai Ye while she aimlessly admired the villa’s decorations.

Guan Rong, always the shrewd one, saw her boredom and promptly whispered instructions to a subordinate, nudging him to speed up the banquet preparation.

Soon enough, someone came to announce that the banquet was ready. Guan Rong quietly breathed a sigh of relief and invited everyone to the dining hall.

By the time they arrived, the dining hall had already been arranged with a large circular table, covered with a golden brocade tablecloth, and full of dishes presented in a refined manner – undoubtedly the work of professional chefs.

Fang Yuxin glanced over and noticed that the dishes were lavish, not only featuring poultry and meats but also delicacies such as sea cucumbers, shark fins, and bird’s nests. There were also rare mountain delicacies and vegetables. Even before the apocalypse, these ingredients would have been a rare treat for Ordinary People.

Now, in the apocalypse, these items were even more scarce.

The drinks on the table were also of excellent quality, belonging to a class that was reserved for special supplies before the apocalypse. Once opened, the aroma was enticing, and the male big shots in the room couldn’t help but reveal a hint of drooling desire.

Clearly, even for them, such food was rarely enjoyed.

It wasn’t that they lacked such items, but that there was only so much to go around. After all, they couldn’t consume everything themselves; whether for showcasing stature or for forming connections, they had to save some and couldn’t indulge recklessly.

Other leaders greedily inhaled the aroma of the alcohol, looking at Guan Rong with meaningful smiles. They all moved in the same circles and knew Guan Rong well enough, not to say they knew all his secrets, but they were sure that Guan Rong had made a significant sacrifice by bringing out so much good stuff this time!

This realization sent a shiver down their spines! Recalling their own calculations about the two, they were immensely relieved. Thankfully Guan Rong’s behavior had put them on guard! Thankfully, they hadn’t used any of their schemes yet! _{freewebnoveℓ.com}
