The Banquet I

As soon as Jiang Ruolan entered the banquet hall, she found that the hall had been filled with tables. Four or five round tables were arranged lavishly. The chief editor told her that dinner started at 7:30. She had deliberately delayed her arrival for more than an hour.

Since she was invited on behalf of the company, it would not be very nice if she did not come. If she came earlier, no one might care about her, so she purposely arrived a little late. Once she entered, she looked for Director Lan and walked towards him. 

Jiang Ruolan greeted him politely before being arranged to another table.

Just when she was about to ignore the strangers' curious stares on the table and take food to fill her stomach, the door of a private room at the side of the banquet hall suddenly opened. She lightly glanced at the door, then continued put the food into the plate in front of her.
