Only when they reached the entrance of the estate hosting the banquet did Qi Si belatedly realize that this seemed to be Bo Household territory?
"Brother, the banquet we're attending isn't being hosted by the Bo family, is it?" Qi Si asked hesitantly, though he was already almost certain.
"Mm. Today is the Bo family patriarch's eightieth birthday."
Qi Si drew in a sharp breath.

Before coming back, he had still been worrying about how to meet Bo Yanqi. Yet now, the man had practically delivered himself right to Qi Si's doorstep?
