"Thank you, Xiaoyun." The elderly Lady Mu looked gratefully at her old friend after hearing what she had to say.

"It’s all in the past," Lady Xia responded, shaking her head with a smile.

At this moment, Xia Xi returned from his phone call, "I’ll take care of Minmin’s issue in a few days and then head over to the Miao Region."

"Good, good, be careful, Xia Xi, there are many poisonous creatures in the Miao Region. Don’t accept food from strangers," Lady Xia cautioned.

"I understand, Grandma. I’ll store the Ghost Poisonous Insect away for now," Xia Xi responded, nodding.

At this time, Xia Zhenglin arrived with his wife, Li Min, informing the elders that the banquet will start soon. They should get changed and prepare to cut the cake.

Xia Yue and Xia Xi took the opportunity to leave the courtyard, each holding the System and the Spiritual Cat, respectively.

"I can’t believe such an incident occurred on such a great day. Thank God it didn’t succeed. If something happened to grandma, grandpa wouldn’t be able to bear the blow," Xia Yue said to Xia Xi as they walked.

"Their love for each other is apparent, but I didn’t expect grandma to be a saintess from the Miao Region. I didn’t feel any spiritual power from her, it seems her ability surpasses mine," Xia Xi nodded and added.

"Yes, I was also surprised to learn about grandma’s origins. It’s very surprising," Xia Yue said excitedly, nodding her head.

"Are you going to bring them both to the banquet hall?" Xia Xi asked, looking at the two cats in Xia Yue’s arms.

"Definitely not." Xia Yue replied, then looked down at the System and the Spiritual Cat, "You two, return to the room first. I’ll get you some food later."

"Meow, okay Master," the Spiritual Cat meowed and nodded.

[Best to have a bit of everything.] The System demanded.

"Got it, you’re so demanding." Xia Yue retorted with irritation.

Then the System and the Spiritual Cat hopped down from her arms and walked towards Xia Yue’s room without looking back.

Once they were out of sight, Xia Yue and Xia Xi headed back to the Banquet Hall.

They laughed and greeted everyone they met.

"Where did you slackers disappear to all afternoon?" Xia Xin immediately asked in a hushed tone when she saw them, envy lacing her words. She was called back by her mom after only half an hour away, yet these two got to spend the entire afternoon off, and nobody reprimanded them.

"We bumped into grandpa and the others while we were out relaxing. They invited us over, and we didn’t get a chance to return," Xia Yue explained with a smile.

"Oh, well then. I think it’s nice here," Xia Xin said, immediately dropping the envious look upon learning they had spent time with their grandparents.

"It’s fine, it wasn’t too boring. They had their conversations, Xia Xi and I amused ourselves," Xia Yue laughed.

"Only a socialphobe like you would say that," Xia Xin rolled her eyes at her.

"How was your afternoon?" Xia Yue asked her, looking to hear about her day.

"Did you see Zhang Ya? She wants to marry your brother. She was tag-teaming with her dad and Third Uncle and Third Aunt this afternoon, probing the situation," Xia Xin said straightforwardly.

"What? She wants to marry my brother? How do you know that?" Xia Yue asked in surprise, full of disbelief.

"Absolutely. She even tried inviting your second brother for a dance, but he managed to dodge her," Xia Xin said with certainty.
