The Zhao family's banquet was naturally busy with servants preparing for it. It was the 80th birthday of the Zhao family's patriarch, which forced Zhao Feipeng and his brothers to gather together. Normally, the family would never be so fully assembled.
Jian Tao was chatting with Ye Fan, though there wasn't much to talk about. To avoid any slip-ups, Jian Tao stayed close to Ye Fan, lest Zhao Zhongtian come over asking questions. If that happened, it could be hard to cover things up.
Jian Tao was using Ye Fan to dodge Zhao Zhongtian's inquiries.
Zhao Gui and Chen Yifei didn't deliberately seek out Ye Fan either, also opting to avoid him to prevent feeling awkward and inferior. This wouldn't be helpful and would instead make them uncomfortable, fearing that Ye Fan would be displeased.
Taking everything into consideration, Zhao Gui and Chen Yifei could only busy themselves, attending to the servants preparing the meal and getting the wine ready.
