Chapter 23: Inviting the Xiao Family to the Banquet!

"Chen Feng, Nalan Yanran looks down on Xiao Yan and wants to dissolve the engagement, but she fears criticism," said Ya Fei, looking at Chen Feng with some resentment.

"Does she think that if you come in her place, she won't be criticized?" Ya Fei continued, feeling indignant. In her eyes, Chen Feng was talented, noble, and had limitless potential. However, his involvement in dissolving Nalan Yanran's engagement with the Xiao family could tarnish his reputation.

After giving herself to Chen Feng, Ya Fei considered him her man. The thought of him possibly being slandered in the future naturally upset her.

"Yanran… she's had some issues and can't come for now," Chen Feng replied, choosing not to disclose that Nalan Yanran was pregnant.

"Hmph, what could be more important than dissolving an engagement? She clearly values her reputation and doesn't want to come in person," Ya Fei retorted, feeling jealous and believing that Chen Feng was defending Nalan Yanran.

"Chen Feng, you're defending Nalan Yanran, but has she ever considered you?" Ya Fei asked, feeling indignant on Chen Feng's behalf. Chen Feng couldn't help but pinch her delicate face.

"Relax, it's just an engagement dissolution. It's not as serious as you think. The Xiao family is nothing to me," Chen Feng reassured her. If it weren't for Xiao Yan being the son of this plane, Chen Feng wouldn't have given it much thought.

"Are you planning to go directly to the Xiao family to dissolve the engagement?" Ya Fei asked, agreeing that the Xiao family was just a small clan in Wu Tan City.

"No, my teacher instructed me to keep a low profile during this dissolution, as it's not very honorable," Chen Feng shook his head. He didn't want to provoke Xiao Yan, the son of this plane, by dissolving the engagement in a high-profile manner.

"Chen Feng, are you overthinking this? It's just the small Xiao family. Do you really need to invite them to a banquet?" Ya Fei asked, feeling that Chen Feng was taking the Xiao family too seriously.

"Ya Fei, since I'm partly responsible for Yanran's decision to dissolve the engagement, I'm doing this as a way to express some apology on her behalf. At least it won't make Xiao Yan feel too embarrassed," Chen Feng explained, although he had other thoughts in mind.

"Chen Feng, you're too kind-hearted," Ya Fei said, looking at Chen Feng. She felt that he didn't need to feel guilty about this. It was inevitable that the Xiao family's waste would be rejected.

"Ya Fei, you've been in Wu Tan City for three years now. You should be familiar with the Xiao family," Chen Feng said, looking at Ya Fei with a smile.

"Indeed, I've had quite a few dealings with them. Are you saying that I should be the one to handle this engagement dissolution?" Ya Fei asked, understanding Chen Feng's intentions.

"Yes, I need your help, Ya Fei. Please send an invitation to the Xiao family, inviting them to a banquet at the Miteer Auction House. Remember, the invitation should be in your name, and don't mention me," Chen Feng instructed.

"Are you planning to discuss the dissolution with the Xiao family privately?" Ya Fei quickly understood Chen Feng's plan.

"Correct. If I were to go to the Xiao family directly, it would be too conspicuous. Even if I wanted to keep a low profile, it would be difficult," Chen Feng explained.

"Chen Feng, how do you plan to proceed?" Ya Fei asked curiously.

"Ya Fei, after you return to the auction house, please prepare an invitation and send it to the Xiao family," Chen Feng requested.

After a while, Ya Fei prepared an invitation and handed it to Gu Ni, the master of the auction house.
