"Fifth Miss has returned."
Several guards bowed in salute, showing Luo Xi considerable respect.
After hearing her instructions.
Everyone hesitated briefly, then replied in low voices, "Honored guests from Nine Heavens Gate have come to visit, and Second Elder is receiving them. Miss may have to wait a short while."
As soon as these words were spoken, Luo Xi's brows slightly furrowed. She had not expected to run into this sort of mishap.
She turned to Shen Yun and Shen Qingruo, her tone apologetic. "This is truly unfortunate. Please rest in the residence for a while. Once matters over there are finished, I will immediately invite second uncle over."
Before her voice had fallen, Shen Yun's brows suddenly lifted, and he raised his eyes toward the depths of the estate.
"No need."
His expression was calm as he slowly said, "They are already here."
Tap, tap, tap...
Then, light footsteps came from afar, spreading out across the empty square.
Everyone looked toward the sound, and saw dozens of people walking toward them in great force, chatting and laughing happily, the atmosphere quite warm.
Among them, the most eye-catching were the two tall figures walking at the very front.
The one on the left had a dignified bearing, inspiring awe without anger, and between his brows was the air of one who held life and death in his hands. It was none other than the Heavenly Lightning Dharma King.
The man on the right was elegant and refined, with a friendly smile, like a learned and talented scholar. He walked shoulder to shoulder with the Heavenly Lightning Dharma King, yet his aura did not fall behind in the slightest.
This person was Luo Yan, the Second Elder of the Luo family, known as the "Smiling God of Wealth."
Rumor had it
