Today is "Fujiwara Ka"'s twenty-fifth birthday.

In Dongdao, a woman's sixteenth and twenty-fifth birthdays are the two most important time windows.

More than ten minutes have passed since the banquet time agreed by "Fujiwara Ka", but Fujiwara Ka has still not been seen.

Some guests were already waiting impatiently. But due to the reputation of the "Fujiwara Family", no one dared to complain.

The most anxious person on the scene was Mihui Hatoyama.

Zhao Xu went in for so long, but he didn't come out. Not only that, "Fujiwara Kaori" was nowhere to be seen either.

Hatoyama Mihui really couldn't figure out how Zhao Xu got permission from "Fujiwara Ka" to enter.

At this time, Hatoyama Meihui saw a familiar figure.

This person is Mitsui Qi from the "Mitsui Family".

After seeing Mitsui Qi, Hatoyama Mihui frowned and murmured: "Why is he here too?"

After Mitsui Qi appeared, Hatoyama Mihui quickly saw Zhao Xu walking towards the banquet venue from the "Fujiwara Family" house.

After seeing Zhao Xu, Hatoyama Meihui was in a good mood and hurriedly greeted him.

Before and after Zhao Xu approached, Hatoyama Meihui stepped forward and took the initiative to hold Zhao Xu's arm.

Zhao Xu wanted to throw away, but saw many people looking this way.

If she shook off Mihui Hatoyama's arm in public, it would make it difficult for her to get off stage, so she chose to acquiesce.

Hatoyama Mihui whispered to Zhao Xu: "Mitsui Qi is here!"

"Which one?" Zhao Xu looked into the crowd.

"That man wearing plaid pants. Don't look at him, be careful he sees you!" Mihui Hatoyama reminded Zhao Xu in a low voice.

It's a pity that Mitsui Qi has already seen Zhao Xu.

Hatoyama Meihui took Zhao Xu to the fruit stall, took a grape and handed it to Zhao Xu.

Zhao Xu instinctively wanted to pick him up, but he heard Hatoyama Meihui say: "Open your mouth and I will feed you!"

When Zhao Xu heard this, he didn't dare to ask Hatoyama Meihui to feed him. He took the grapes from Hatoyama Meihui's hand, smiled and said, "I'm not used to others feeding me!"

Hatoyama Mihui was not angry either.

Hatoyama Meihui wanted to feed Zhao Xu, but she just wanted to tell the wealthy young men who pursued her in the past. She already had a man she liked, and she wanted those people to quit before the difficulties. Otherwise, a bunch of crazy bees and butterflies would be around her every day, which would be annoying.

They're all so annoyed.

Hatoyama Meihui explained to Zhao Xu in a low voice: "Mr. Zhao, don't get me wrong! There are many suitors of mine here. I just want them to know that I have a boyfriend."

Only then did Zhao Xu realize that he had misunderstood Hatoyama Mihui.

"I'm sorry, Miss Meihui!"

"It doesn't matter, I can't blame you." Hatoyama Meihui felt a little disappointed.

Zhao Xu picked up a fork, picked up a grape and handed it to Hatoyama Meihui.

Hatoyama Meihui's pretty face showed a smile as bright as the sun. Her red lips were slightly opened, and she bit the grape handed to her by Zhao Xu. She nibbled lightly with her teeth, and the grape slipped into her mouth.

In the distance, some of Hatoyama Mihui's suitors had angry flames in their eyes.

They had never met Zhao Xu at all, but one look at Zhao Xu's appearance and told him that he was not from their "Eastern Island".

How could they swallow such a sigh of relief when a beautiful woman like Mihui Hatoyama was actually chased by a foreign man?

Beside Mitsui Qi, a man whispered to him.

Mitsui Qi looked shocked, and then the man hurriedly left the scene.

Zhao Xu has been paying attention to Mitsui Qi's situation.

There were many people surrounding Mitsui Qi. Therefore, Zhao Xu did not see the man next to Mitsui Qi at the first time.

When the man slipped away quietly, Zhao Xu caught sight of this familiar figure.

Is it Zhuo Qi?

Zhao Xu was 100% sure.

Zhuo Qi appeared here, how could Zhao Xu let him go.

Just as he was about to catch up to Zhuo Qi who had slipped away, he heard a burst of enthusiastic applause.

Hatoyama Mihui grabbed Zhao Xu who was about to leave and said, "Where are you going? Fujiwara Kaoru is out."

In just such a short moment, Zhuo Qi had disappeared.

Zhuo Qi was also surprised when he saw Zhao Xu here.

After telling Mitsui Qi about Zhao Xu's true identity, he sneaked away secretly.

Zhuo Qi's kung fu is not as good as Zhao Xu's.

If Zhao Xu saw him, it would be strange not to capture him as a hostage.

Zhuo Qi was a smart man and quickly left the scene by taking advantage of the bunker.

Seeing that Zhuo Qi had escaped, Zhao Xu secretly said, "What a pity!"

If Hatoyama Meihui hadn't held him back just now, Zhao Xu would have been absolutely sure that he could catch up with Zhuo Qi.

With Zhuo Qi's skill, he had already disappeared in such a short moment.

Hatoyama Meihui also had good intentions, and Zhao Xu did not blame him.

See "Fujiwara Ka" wearing a white dress and a birthday crown, walking slowly towards the field.

The band started playing music, and the surrounding lights lit up like fireworks, bringing the entire venue into a fairy tale dream.

This is definitely the treatment of a "princess" in reality!

Zhao Xu has attended many banquets, but this is the first time he has attended such a grand banquet.

Hatoyama Mihui asked Zhao Xu in a low voice: "You must have met Fujiwara Kaoru, right?"

Zhao Xu said "Yeah!", nodded and said, "I've seen it before!"

"I'm curious, how did you convince the housekeeper to let Fujiwara Kao see you?"

Zhao Xu smiled and said to Hatoyama Mihui: "I only reported my name, and then Fujiwara Kaoru said she wanted to see me."

"Mr. Zhao, you are a bit dishonest!"

Zhao Xu shrugged, with a helpless expression on his face, and said, "Miss Meihui, that's exactly what it is. If you don't believe it, there's nothing I can do about it."

At this point, Hatoyama Mihui really couldn't figure it out.

She is "Fujiwara Ka"'s best friend, and she didn't even get permission to go in and see Fujiwara Ka.

Zhao Xu just came to "East Island", why did he get involved with Fujiwara Kaori?

This question, like a mystery, lingers in Hatoyama Mihui's mind.

After Fujiwara Kaoru came to the court and stood there, she saw an exquisite basin filled with water next to her.

Guests attending the banquet began to line up automatically.

At the front of the queue were Fujiwara-ka's parents. They dipped their hands in the basin with water and wiped Fujiwara-ka's body.

Hatoyama Meihui pulled Zhao Xu to stand in the team.

Zhao Xu asked Hatoyama Meihui in confusion: "Miss Meihui, what are you doing?"

Hatoyama Meihui explained to Zhao Xu: "This is the custom of our local nobles. On the girl's twenty-fifth birthday, she must be baptized with holy water. The water in the basin is natural dew, which is our custom here.

When the time comes, just dip your fingers in the water and dust Fujiwara incense. This is a blessing to her!"

"Understood!" Zhao Xu nodded.

When it was Zhao Xu's turn, Zhao Xu dipped his fingers in water and then wiped it on "Fujiwara Kaori".
