Chapter 706: Chapter 706: You Are My Best Shield
The Capital of S Country, Amarna Square.
As the most luxurious and expensive consumption place in the entire S Country, it is like a gigantic Times Square. The square is paved with smooth marble, making it appear like a dreamy palace.
At the center of the square stands a magnificent palace, which is the Amarna Palace.
The exterior of the palace is already splendid and magnificent, but the interior is even more unique.
Unlike the general style of S Country, it features a more Westernized design—
Silver tassel chandeliers cascade down from the arched high ceiling, surrounded by countless small white lights. Pure flower shapes encircle the tassel chandeliers, making the entire hall appear breathtakingly beautiful.
Moreover, the ceiling is inlaid with patterns specific to medieval European courts. If you look closely, you will discover that those patterns are embedded with gemstones, shining with a dazzling brilliance under the lights.
Usually, grand state ceremonies are held here, but today it serves as the venue for Shana’s birthday banquet.
Upon learning about Shana’s birthday party, many ordinary citizens came to catch the excitement.
It’s known that President Shi Mai’er is usually simple and frugal, but he requisitioned this palace for Shana’s birthday banquet, showing his affection for Sana.
Everyone is curious about what the legendary president’s daughter really looks like.
At this moment, many distinguished guests have already gathered at the entrance of Amarna Palace, all dressed in typical S Country attire, dressed to impress.
Even though Song Yinyin has attended various large public events, whether they be concerts, press conferences, or large banquets, it’s still the first time she’s seen such a grand scene.
She couldn’t help but feel a sense of being opened up to a new world.
At that moment, her palms even started to sweat.
It wasn’t from nervousness, but from excitement.
She turned her head to look at the man beside her, wondering if her husband’s mood was the same as hers.
Lu Jihan was dressed in a black Italian tailor-cut suit, his posture tall and upright, one hand lazily placed in his trouser pocket, the other hand gently resting in front of his abdomen.
His facial features were like sculptures, vividly pronounced, with angular cheekbones, striking eyebrows, a high nose, and attractive thin lips.
Unlike his usual look, he had styled his hair in a slicked-back look with a few strands gently falling down, not appearing messy but enhancing his mature and steady demeanor, like a wine aged gracefully over time, becoming more fragrant and mellow.
He wore a perfectly tailored suit jacket, with the vest widely opened, and the top two buttons of his white shirt casually undone, like a noble and imperious statue.
Noticing Song Yinyin looking at him, Lu Jihan turned his head to gaze at her.
He raised one hand, gently caressing her cheek, comforting her, "Relax, everything’s going to be fine with me here, no need to worry."
Song Yinyin burst out laughing.
"Which eye of yours saw me nervous? I was just thinking that you are dressed way too handsomely tonight. Did you purposely dress this handsome? Aren’t you afraid of attracting other pests?"
She playfully pouted, pretending to be angry.
Lu Jihan smiled quietly, reaching out to pull her slender waist into his arms, and gently kissed her cheek along the way.
"You’re my best shield, why would I worry about pests?"
He teased in all seriousness.
"You always know how to sweet-talk me." Song Yinyin felt sweetness blooming in her heart like honey.
