Chapter 382: Chapter 382: Dinner With Lei Family

"I understand." Lei Meifen nodded.

She was not so stupid to get married to a girl. She was not deeply in love with Bai Xifeng. So, she was not too hurt about this.

Tang Suxue and Old Madam Lei were glad that Lei Meifen understood it.

....

Pharmacist Leng was furious when he could not get the news of what happened in Lei Mansion. The pharmacist that he put beside Old Madam Lei also could not be contacted. He assumed that the pharmacist probably already exposed him to Lei Aiguo.

Lei Aiguo was the strongest cultivator in the city. Pharmacist Leng thought he could use Lei Aiguo to get the herbs that he wanted but the plan was ruined miserablely.

Right now, he wanted to know the identity of the pharmacist who exposed the truth about Old Madam Lei, not Linglian Flower Herb to heal. He was an influential pharmacist in the city. He wanted that pharmacist to know what the consequences of offending him.

After Pharmacist Leng asked around, he found out that there was a young man who returned to the city with the Lei Family from Sophia Mountain. However, no one seemed to know or recognize the young man at all. Lei Family probably got to know him while they were in Sophia Mountain.

...

Bai Xifeng woke up after a few hours of sleeping. She looked around and remembered what happened. She was in the Lei Family’s house treating the Old Madam Lei.

She looked around. It was dark. So, it was already night. She felt that she wanted to eat something like beef stew. So, she was thinking of going outside, taking a look at this city.

She changed her clothes and went out. She was surprised to see two maidservants waiting for her outside.

"What are you doing here?" Bai Xifeng asked.

"Madam Lei asks to wait for you in case you want something." One of the maidservants stated.

"I see. What food do you want right now?" Bai Xifeng asked right now.

The maidservants were taken aback for a second but they recovered faster and answered Bai Xifeng’s question.

"What do you want to eat, Sir? We will ask the kitchen to cook for you right now." The maidservant stated.

"Hmm... That will take a long time. What do you have right now?" Bai Xifeng did not want to wait.

"As for tonight’s dinner, the kitchen prepared spicy crispy beef, broccoli stir-fry, Hong Kong fried rice and spicy chicken." The maidservant stated.

"Hmm... sound delicious. Bring the dishes for me." Bai Xifeng said.

"Do you want to eat alone or do you want to join others?" The maidservant asked.

"Eh, they haven’t eaten the dinner yet?" Bai Xifeng was confused.

"It is still early. Madam also told us to ask you if you want to eat with them when you wake up." The maidservant said.

"Sure. I will eat with them." Bai Xifeng nodded.

Eating alone was not good.

"Well, then, let’s go to the dining hall. I will lead you there." The maidservant said.

She whispered something to another maidservant. The other one nodded and rushed out leaving them. Bai Xifeng assumed that the maidservant would go and tell the master that she would join them for dinner.

When Bai Xifeng arrived at the dining hall, everyone was waiting for her except for Old Madam Lei. She just gained her consciousness tonight. She would not have the energy to eat dinner with them.

"Sir Bai... I mean Lady Bai... Come over and take a seat." Lei Aiguo said.

"Sir Lei, no need to change the way you call me. Just call me Sir Bai. It is more convenient when I am in this outfit." Bai Xifeng said.

"Yes... Yes... I see." Lei Aiguo nodded.

The dinner was very pleasant. They ate and talked.

"Sir Bai, my mother is going to get better?" Lei Aiguo asked.

"Hmm... As long as she takes the medicine, she will get better." Bai Xifeng stated.

"Thank you, Sir Bai." Lei Aiguo said.

"Sir Bai, where are you going to go after this?" Tang Suxue asked.

"I plan to go to Nanning City after this." Bai Xifeng said.

"Nanning City? Is that the new city that General Bai had conquered, right?" Lei Anlei said.

"Yes." Bai Xifeng nodded.

"What are you going to do there?" Lei Meifen wanted to know.

"I heard that they have a good honey. I also have a friend over there. I want to know how my friend is right now." Bai Xifeng said.

The manservant came over and whispered something to Lei Aiguo’s ear. Lei Aiguo’s expression changed for a moment. He nodded.

"I am going to see him." Lei Aiguo said to the manservant. He then turned to others. "You can continue. I have something to do."

"Father, I will follow you." Lei Anlei said.

He knew it must be that pharmacist.

"Sure." Lei Aiguo nodded.

Lei Anlei needed to know how to handle this matter since he would inherit this Family’s name.

"Is the matter can not be waited?" Tang Suxue asked.

"The earlier, the better." Lei Aiguo said.

"If that is the case, then, be careful." Tang Suxue said.

She knew his husband’s behaviour. Her husband would not change his decision easily.

Bai Xifeng did not ask about that. She assumed it was probably that pharmacist that Lei Aiguo ordered to imprison. She would not interfere with that.
