The Countess started talking to Huo Yao enthusiastically.
But most of the time, she was the one talking while Huo Yao listened quietly.
Huo Yao did not know what Huo Yao was up to by attending such a banquet.
Huo Yao yawned lightly. She put down the glass in her hand in boredom and decided to take a piss first.
At this moment, a waiter carrying a tray of wine passed by the two of them. It was unknown if he lost his footing or tripped over something, but his entire body suddenly fell forward, and the tray in his hand flew out due to the inertia.
In an instant, a few glasses of fruit juice and red wine flew towards Huo Yao and the Countess.
Huo Yao sensed this and moved slightly. She reached out to pull the Countess away.
But when Huo Yao saw the waiter glancing at the Countess, she suddenly put her hand down.
Huo Yao did not dodge. She did not seem to have reacted in time and allowed the fruit juice and red wine to splash on her dress.
Following that, the glasses also fell to the ground, making a crisp sound of shattering.
The sound attracted most people's attention. Everyone turned to look at them.
Huo Yulin's expression darkened when he saw this. He strode over to Huo Yao.
"I'm sorry, Madam. I didn't mean to..." the waiter apologized in a panic the moment he steadied himself.
The Countess lowered her eyes to look at her dress before she looked at Huo Yao's wet dress. She instantly frowned and reprimanded the waiter. "How could you be so careless?"
The Countess was standing very close to Huo Yao, so it was inevitable that her dress was stained. The wine stains were even more obvious in her light-colored dress.
"I'm sorry..." The waiter could only tremble as he apologized. He did not dare to defend himself.
Huo Yulin walked over and placed his hands on Huo Yao's shoulders to check her up and down. "Yaoyao, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. I just accidentally spilled some wine on my dress," said Huo Yao as she spread her hands.
The Countess was shocked to see Huo Yulin suddenly walking over. It was then that she noticed the pin on Huo Yao's chest.
This girl was a Huo?
What was her husband up to? Why did he touch a Huo family member?
The Countess's eyes flickered and she hesitated for a moment.
But she quickly composed herself and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry. I'll get someone to take you upstairs to clean up."
Huo Yao raised her brow gently.
The main topic finally came.
Huo Yao clicked her tongue in her heart before she said, "Sorry to trouble you."
When the Countess saw this, she shook her head and said, "It's no trouble at all. It's just that the servants of the manor were lacking in etiquette."
She beckoned a maid over.
Huo Yao glanced at Huo Yulin and said calmly, "Brother Yulin, I'll be right back."
Huo Yulin paused for a moment, then let go and agreed.
Before long, the maid brought Huo Yao to the second floor.
There were many rooms on the second floor, and the maid directly led her to the last room in the corridor.
After entering, she bowed. "Please wait for a moment. I'll go get you a change of clothes."
Without waiting for Huo Yao's reply, she quickly left the room.
After the door closed, an extremely soft clicking sound rang out.
Huo Yao raised her brow and scanned the room. Her eyes paused on the window.
Then, she walked over and pulled the curtains.
The window was sealed with a metal frame, so it could not be opened at all. It was impossible to jump out of the window.
The window was sealed and the door was locked. Sure enough, they had come prepared.
