“I’m sure Shengyang Group won’t go out of their way to set us up for 80000 bucks. Calm down and hurry back, okay?”
What? Shengyang Group? The same Shengyang Group that joined the ranks of the first-tier wealthy families just by their financial resources alone?
The mysterious Shengyang Group that even the s.h.i.+ family would be at a disadvantage against?
Zhou Ruxue’s expression turned as sour as a lemon once again. She snorted and threw her card at the front desk. “Take my card!”
The waiter acted as if nothing had happened. He received the card with both hands and swiped the card on the machine. Then, the group of waiters smiled at Zhou Ruxue before giving her a right-angle bow. They said in unison, “Please visit us again! Please visit us again!”
Zhou Ruxue, “…”

As night fell and the lights were newly lit, the Chi and Nangong family gathered together for their reunion.
Also present at the reunion with Nangong Nuannuan were Aiden, Selina, Dan Qi, and Bai Liyue.
Bai Liyue was one of the best mercenaries, and she had built a wonderful foundation for her body. After recuperating for two days and using the ointment that Nuannuan had specially prepared for her, many of Bai Liyue’s wounds healed with scabs forming in many areas. Therefore, during dinner, Bai Liyue went downstairs to eat.
There were three members in the Chi family, seventeen members in the Nangong family, and four of Nuannuan’s companions. Along with the old housekeeper who had no family members, there were a total of 25 people. The huge living room that was usually empty now buzzed with liveliness.
Even Da Bai, who could only move about in its little s.p.a.ce, was allowed into the house by Chi Zeyao.
Da Bai, who had been extremely picky with its food, was now sitting in front of a basin filled with top-grade steak, top-grade mutton chops, chicken breast, and all sorts of colorful snacks made from vitamins. The truth was that Da Bai disliked snacks, but under Chi Zeyao’s pressure, it had been eating snacks for a long time. In the beginning, it was not used to it. After Da Bai started to get used to the snacks, it found itself antic.i.p.ating the snacks. After eating these, Chi Zeyao mixed up some goat’s milk and bone soup before scooping it up into a bowl for Da Bai.
Nuannuan looked at Da Bai before turning to Chi Zeyao. Then, she said, “Second Uncle, I feel like Da Bai will become a fatty under your care.”
After finis.h.i.+ng a large basin of meat, Da Bai, who was enjoying its snack again, looked at its little princess and let out a howl.
“Hahahaha…”
Everyone laughed at Da Bai’s dissatisfied expression.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang and the butler went over to open the door. Old Master Chi was very happy to see the man who returned to the house. “Lil Xuan, you’re back! Quickly wash your hands and join us for the reunion dinner.”
“Big Bro, I thought you wouldn’t be able to make it back for the New Year.”
“Big Bro, quickly wash your hands. Second Uncle Nangong and Second Uncle Chi made a lot of delicious food!”
He scanned the surroundings—his companions were beaming among the crowd that still looked squashed despite seat at two large round tables. It was only seven o’clock. Seeing the smiles on everyone’s faces, the bleakness and loneliness from the already empty streets were instantly replaced by the liveliness from this house.
No wonder nearly all the shops and shopping malls outside were closed. No wonder there were no pedestrians on the road that stretched so widely outside. The world had exchanged its coldness for the liveliness in this house.
“Big Bro, is everything settled?”
When Nuannuan stood up, Second Uncle Chi left his seat too. Uncle Fu immediately took Feng Shengxuan’s jacket and hung it up for him.
“It’s done..” Feng Shengxuan paused for a moment as he recollected his thoughts, stunned, from the lively atmosphere.
