We'll Address Each Other Our Own Way: I'll Call Him Brother, and He'll Call Me Brother-in-Law

"Beibei?" As soon as Huo Yuhao returned, Zhang Lexuan asked softly.

"Mm." Huo Yuhao nodded.

Zhang Lexuan said helplessly, "He must have noticed something."

"Yeah." Huo Yuhao winked at Zhang Lexuan and teased, "From now on, we'll address each other our own way. I'll call him brother, and he'll call me brother-in-law."

"Get lost. You're never serious." Embarrassed and annoyed, Zhang Lexuan clenched her fist and waved it at Huo Yuhao.

"Alright, alright, no more jokes." Huo Yuhao smiled, then turned serious. "Xu Jiujiu sent word that she wants to meet with us."

"She wants to meet us? She wouldn't ask for nothing. Come with me to the Star Luo Royal Soul Master Academy's residence." Zhang Lexuan shed her earlier bashfulness and returned to her decisive manner. Rising to her feet, she led Huo Yuhao out of the bedroom.

When they reached the living room, the girls from Shrek Academy had just returned from shopping. They were playing Monopoly together, gathered in a circle amid continuous pleasant laughter. Even Snow Empress, the most withdrawn among them, had joined in.

As for the boys, they were over at the Training Ground, observing the Soul Tools He Caitou had made.

"Senior Sister, come play Monopoly!" Ma Xiaotao spotted Zhang Lexuan approaching.

The other girls immediately stopped playing and looked up as well.

Zhang Lexuan smiled. "I'll pass. Yuhao and I have something to take care of."

Everyone nodded in understanding. Only Ma Xiaotao's beautiful eyes shifted as she looked at Huo Yuhao behind Zhang Lexuan.

Huo Yuhao met her gaze.

Neither of them spoke.

Yet the corners of Ma Xiaotao's red lips slowly curled into a smile.

She understood.

Zhang Lexuan did not notice. She and Huo Yuhao left the villa and headed toward the Star Luo Royal Soul Master Academy's residence
