Chapter 486 Huo Yuchen VS Orange
After the ceremony, the crowd began to disperse.

The Shrek group was preparing to return to the hotel when a eunuch dressed in fine clothes strode up to them.

"My lords, His Majesty requests your presence."

The eunuch bowed respectfully. "A celebratory banquet will be held in the palace tonight, and His Majesty has specially invited several guests to attend."

As he spoke, he took out several gleaming gold invitations and respectfully handed them to Lin You and the others.

Everyone looked at each other in surprise. Wang Dong was the first to take the invitation. After reading the contents, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "It seems that Senior Brother He Caitou has been paying attention to us all along."

Xiao Xiao also smiled and said, "He still remembers us old classmates even after he became emperor. He's truly a man of honor and loyalty."

Ning Tian opened the invitation and looked at it carefully. He found that it was indeed a formal invitation to a royal banquet, scheduled for tonight at around 7 p.m.

Wu Feng said excitedly, "I've never attended a royal banquet before, it must be very interesting."

Although Huo Yuqin remained outwardly calm, a hint of anticipation flickered in her eyes. After all, an occasion like a royal banquet was a rare treat for ordinary people, perhaps only once in their entire lives.

Di Qiu'er asked innocently, "Is the food in the palace delicious?"

Everyone burst into laughter at her words. Brigitte gently patted her head: "It will surely be a feast."

Back at the hotel, everyone looked at Moon, who was lying on a chair with his eyes closed, resting.

"Teacher, we have received an invitation to a banquet at the royal palace." Lin You handed the invitation to Mu En.

Moon opened his eyes, glanced at the invitation, and smiled faintly, "Go ahead and have fun if you want. No one will care about you. After all, compared to the huge crowds at the coronation ceremony, the palace banquet is much more private. Even if you show your faces, it won't have any impact."

"Wuhu!" Wang Dong exclaimed excitedly, "Then let's hurry up and get ready!"

Xiao Xiao excitedly said, "We need to buy some formal clothes so we don't make a mistake at the palace banquet."

"Yeah, we're dressing too casually these days."

As the eldest daughter of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Tian was experienced in this regard: "As the capital of the Sun Moon Empire, Mingdu must have many high-end clothing stores. Let's go take a look."

"I also want to buy a pretty dress." Huo Yuqin rarely showed her girlish side.

And so, everyone went out to shop and change clothes with great enthusiasm.

In the afternoon, Lin You strolled alone through the streets of Mingdu. As the capital of the Sun Moon Empire, Mingdu was indeed prosperous, with wide and clean streets, numerous shops, and all sorts of novel soul tools everywhere.

He was looking at the window of a soul tool shop when a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Lin You?"

Lin You turned around and saw a girl in a white dress smiling at him.

The girl was tall and slender with fair, jade-like skin and delicate features. Her long black hair cascaded down her shoulders like a waterfall, and she exuded an elegant aura.

"Oranges?" Lin You asked, somewhat surprised. "What are you doing here?"

Orange walked naturally to Lin You's side and said in a soft voice, "I just came out of the Royal Soul Master Academy and was about to go shopping when I unexpectedly ran into you."

She paused for a moment, then asked curiously, "When did you arrive? I didn't see you at today's coronation ceremony."

Lin You waved his hand helplessly: "Let's not put too much pressure on His Majesty the Emperor. If I appear at the ceremony, it will probably attract unnecessary attention."

Orange smiled and said, "You are a celebrity in the Sun Moon Empire, the renowned Father of Elements. No matter how much you are involved in palace upheavals, who would dare to say anything against you?"

"Isn't there you? You always say I'm a dangerous person, don't you?" Lin You retorted.

The two looked at each other and smiled, creating a very relaxed atmosphere.

Just then, a clear voice came from not far away: "Brother You!" Lin You turned his head and saw Huo Yuqin walking quickly over. Today she was wearing a light blue dress, which made her look both pure and beautiful, attracting the attention of many passersby.

Huo Yuqin walked to Lin You's side, naturally took his arm, and then gave Ju Zi a provocative look, behaving very intimately.

Orange's expression remained unchanged, her gentle smile unchanged, as she asked curiously, "Junior, is this Huo Yuqin that you often mention? She's quite adorable."

She paused deliberately, then added, "I heard she's your sister?"

She specifically emphasized the word "younger sister".

Huo Yuqin's expression remained unchanged, but her eyes narrowed slightly: "They're not blood siblings, they're childhood sweethearts who grew up together."

Orange's expression remained unchanged as she smiled gently, "Really? That's a natural progression then. Congratulations!"

Huo Yuqin looked puzzled. What was going on? Wasn't she here to steal a man? Why was she congratulating him? She had deliberately acted so intimately just now to fend off women with ulterior motives, but this woman gave her a different feeling.

Then she became secretly wary. Oh no, her skill level seems a bit too high!
"Little Yuqin is so cute."

"It's so enviable to be with your childhood sweetheart," Orange said gently.

"Sister Orange is beautiful too," Huo Yuchen replied with a smile. "And with such a great aura, she must have many suitors, right?"

The two women addressed each other as sisters and appeared very intimate, but in reality, they were both secretly wary of each other.

Lin You watched the interaction between the two, too lazy to care about their complicated thoughts, but he unknowingly stood between them.

Huo Yuqin's eyes grew even more wary: This person is a formidable enemy!

Orange maintained her gentle smile, thinking to herself: Little sister, you're still too young.

"Since we've run into each other, why don't we go shopping together?" Orange suggested. "I'm actually going to buy something."

“Okay,” Huo Yuqin replied, not to be outdone. “I also want to see what kind of unique shops Mingdu has.”

The three strolled along the street, with two beautiful girls flanking Lin You, attracting countless envious and jealous glances from passersby.

"Who are those two beautiful girls with him?"

"I'm so envious, I wish I had that kind of good fortune with women."

"They all seem to be noble ladies."

The chatter of passersby was incessant.

In a women's clothing store, both Ju Zi and Huo Yuchen picked out a few items of clothing. Ju Zi's taste leaned towards elegant and mature, while Huo Yuchen preferred a pure and cute style.

"Sister Yuqin has excellent taste," Orange praised.

"Sister Orange's choice is also very beautiful," Huo Yuqin replied.

The two appeared to be on good terms, but beneath the surface, tensions were running high.

After browsing the women's clothing store, Orange suddenly suggested, "I know a really nice handmade shop with exquisite items. Want to go check it out together?"

Huo Yuqin realized that she couldn't back down in front of this woman, so she nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'd like to see for myself too."

The three continued strolling along the street, attracting envious glances from passersby. Lin You was used to the attention, but the subtle rivalry between Ju Zi and Huo Yuqin left him feeling somewhat helpless.

What is this called.
