Chapter 285: Difficulty in Getting Up
"Priceless?" Yan Li was stunned when he heard that.
A set of clothes is priceless. Even if he was an emperor in his previous life, the clothes he wore were not so luxurious.
"Yes, young lady, you may not know this, but even the young ladies from the three top families are proud to own a set of clothes from Tianchoufang." Seeing Yan Li's expression, the maid beside her said with a smile.
"Okay then, keep that one, and I'll put the others into the space." Yan Li nodded, and the other forty-seven sets of clothes were put into the space.
The next day.
As soon as the sky was getting light, Yan Li was pulled out of bed by the maid and prepared to start dressing up.
"Xier, it's not even dawn yet. Let me sleep for a while. It will be fine after a while." Yan Li said and fell back onto the bed.
"Miss, Miss, this won't work. If you sleep any longer, you'll be late for the banquet." Xier pulled Yan Li up again with a helpless look on her face.
"Banquet? What party?" Yan Li looked confused.
"Have you forgotten that today is the granddaughter-recognition party held specially for you by the head of the family?" Xier was speechless upon hearing this.
Could our young lady be any more confused?
If it were someone else attending such an important banquet, they would definitely be so excited that they would not be able to sleep.
But she was so sleepy that she not only couldn't wake up, but also completely forgot about the party.
"It's just a banquet, Xier, let me sleep for a while, it will be fine after a while." After saying that, Yan Li fell down again, hugged the quilt and fell asleep.
Xier: ...
Miss, could you please show some excitement for such an important banquet?
"Aren't you up yet?" a voice came, and Gu Luo and Gu Shan walked in together.
When they saw Yan Li still sleeping soundly with the quilt in her arms, they were speechless.
"Sir, the young lady seems to be very sleepy and cannot be woken up at all." Xier looked at Gu Luo and the others helplessly.
"Li'er, get up." Gu Luo walked over and pulled Yan Li up again.
"Brother Gu Luo, do you know what is the most important thing for a seven-year-old baby?" Yan Li looked at Gu Luo and the others with sleepy eyes.
"What is it?" Gu Luo asked with amusement.
"It's sleep. Do you know how important sleep is to a seven-year-old baby? You know if I don't sleep well, I will be in a bad mood the whole day. If I am in a bad mood, someone will be unlucky." Yan Li said with a depressed face.
"Puchi... Li'er, be good, just for today. Get up early today, and you can sleep as much as you want in the future." Gu Shan was immediately amused by her.
"I'm so sleepy." Yan Li said and fell down to continue sleeping.
Upon seeing this, Gu Luo and Gu Shan looked at each other and were speechless.
Li'er has difficulty getting up!
……
At the banquet.
The head of the Gu family sat in the main seat with a happy face.
There was a seat reserved next to him. When the head of the Gu family looked at that seat, a smile appeared on his face.
Not far below him, several old men looked at the head of the Gu family with contempt on their faces.
They are some old friends of Mr. Gu, and they were specially invited by Mr. Gu to come and see his granddaughter today.
The elders of the Gu family were also waiting for Yan Li's arrival with smiles on their faces.
Two other top families were also invited, as were more than a dozen major forces.
They were all very curious about what the granddaughter adopted by Patriarch Gu looked like and what was so special about her that made Patriarch Gu favor her so much.
However, considering that the head of the Gu family had previously forced his three sons to give birth to granddaughters for him, it is understandable that he would favor his granddaughter so much.
The three masters of the Gu family sat in their seats, their expressions filled with excitement, anticipation, and helplessness.
Because they were in seclusion, but were forcibly pulled out by their father.
Everyone is looking forward to Yan Li's arrival...
At this time, Gu Xin came over with her maid. As soon as Gu Xin arrived, everyone's eyes fell on her.
Since Gu Xin has always been very outgoing, almost everyone knows her.
Naturally, I know that Gu Xin is not the protagonist today.
Gu Xin looked around and finally saw the seat next to the head of the Gu family. She smiled slightly and was about to walk over and sit down.
"Xin'er." Seeing her intention, the old man of the Gu family stopped her.
"Uncle, what's wrong?" Gu Xin looked at the old man of the Gu family with an innocent face.
"Your seat is over there." Uncle Gu said, pointing to a seat not far away.
Gu Xin's face changed when she heard that.
"I thought the seat next to grandpa was reserved for me." Gu Xin said with a look of grievance on her face.
Everyone was speechless after hearing this!
The protagonist of today's banquet is Yan Li, and anyone with a brain knows that the seat is reserved for her.
"Today is Li'er's introduction party, so that seat is naturally hers." The old man of the Gu family replied.
"I understand." Gu Xin nodded, turned around and sat in her seat, looking as if she had suffered great injustice.
But no one paid any attention to her...
Time passed by minute by minute, but Yan Li still didn't come.
"Old Man Gu, your granddaughter didn't oversleep, did she?" An old man below looked at the head of the Gu family with a teasing look.
He is She Xiang, one of the old friends of the Gu family leader.
"How is that possible? Li'er must be dressing up to show her best side to everyone." Upon hearing this, the head of the Gu family immediately retorted.
Several old men from She Xiang couldn't help but roll their eyes when they heard this.
At this moment, Yan Li, whom everyone was looking forward to, finally arrived.
But her condition left everyone stunned.
Because Yan Li was held by Gu Luo, and she was sleeping soundly on Gu Luo's shoulder.
Seeing this, She Xiang looked at the head of the Gu family with a teasing look again.
Isn't it for dressing up?
What the hell is he doing dressing up? He obviously overslept. Look, he’s still sleeping.
Everyone was completely speechless when they saw this scene.
"Luo'er, what's going on?" There was no trace of blame in the head of the Gu family's tone. Instead, he looked at Yan Li in Gu Luo's arms with great doting.
"Lier got up too early to dress up for the party, and ended up being too sleepy and fell asleep on the way here. Sigh... she's still a baby after all." Gu Luo sighed.
Xier, the maid beside her, almost laughed out loud when she heard this.
Mr. Luo is really good at talking nonsense. It is obvious that the young lady was too lazy to get into bed, and Mr. Luo had no choice but to carry her over while she was still sleeping.
"Li'er has worked so hard." Upon hearing this, the head of the Gu family looked at Yan Li in Gu Luo's arms with eyes full of heartache.
Everyone:...
Thanks for your hard work?
It's really tiring to still sleep after the party has started.
Everyone couldn't help but complain in their hearts.
"Grandpa, why don't I hold her first, and then sit back in her seat when she wakes up." Gu Luo looked at the head of the Gu family and said.
"It won't be comfortable for you to hold her. I'd better order someone to bring a soft couch over." said the head of the Gu family.
Everyone:...
It was a grand introduction banquet, but the protagonist was sleeping on the couch. This was unprecedented.
Just when everyone was speechless, Yan Li, who was sleeping on Gu Luo's shoulder, woke up rubbing her eyes.
