Chapter 3375 — The Rain Family Banquet
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
She knew why the Rain Family had enjoyed decades of glory, and she knew what it would mean if she refused. Of course, she could not refuse either—she carried the hopes of everyone in the Rain Family. She finally understood why her grandfather had guarded against the matter between her and Wei Zhao, and what her grandfather had been worrying about.
These days, Yuning had been somewhat gloomy and joyless. She did not know whether she would be able to see Wei Zhao one more time before she left, nor whether she would have the chance to survive and return to see Wei Zhao after she was gone.
Today, Yuning was notified that the family was holding an important banquet, and the whole family had to attend. Of course, the so-called whole family meant only Yu Tianxing, Yu Yi and his wife Yu Xiaochen, and Yuning herself!
As for Yu Xiaozhong and Yu Shan, Yu Tianxing had already blacklisted them; their names could never be mentioned again.
Only then did Yuning leave her residence and come to the reception hall. But when she stepped into the hall and casually glanced around, she caught sight of Wei Zhao's figure. At once her small mouth fell slightly open, and she stared in disbelief at the person sitting in the guest's seat of honor!
Yuning looked in shock toward her grandfather, who sat in the host's seat, somewhat uncomprehending!
Of course, in the past, whenever Yu Tianxing attended a banquet, he was certainly the last to arrive, because both his status and his strength were the greatest. But today was different. Wei Zhao had already taken his seat, and it was impossible for him to display any sense of superiority before Wei Zhao, so he had accompanied Wei Zhao to the table. As for Yuning, she was farther away from here, and so was the last to enter.
Yet not a single person dared to reproach her, and for no other reason than this: Wei Zhao was sitting here! If Wei Zhao did not speak, who would dare to?
"Xiaoning, you have come. Sit beside me." Wei Zhao smiled and beckoned to Yuning. Ordinarily, no one was seated at Wei Zhao's side, but an exception was made and a chair was added for Yuning. Of course, in this matter, Wei Zhao was the greatest, and whatever he said was law.
"Mm..." Yuning responded somewhat bashfully. Seeing that neither her grandfather nor her father objected, and that Yu Yi even added a chair for her, Yuning quickly sat down beside Wei Zhao. But her expression was somewhat strange—she did not know what the Rain Family was doing today.
"Young Hero Lin, would you say a few words?" Seeing that everyone in the family had taken their seats, Yu Tianxing said to Wei Zhao, which was also a mark of respect toward him.
"I will not speak. Old Master Yu, you are the host, so you speak," Wei Zhao declined with a wave of his hand.
"Very well then." Yu Tianxing nodded and said, "I imagine everyone is no stranger to Young Hero Lin. He is currently a top expert in the world of cultivation, and also the benefactor of our Hidden Rain Family. Last time Xiaoning was kidnapped, it was he who saved her, and in the past, when Xiaoning went abroad for trials, it was also Young Hero Lin who protected her. The fate between the two of them, one could say, was determined long ago!"
"Indeed. If Xiaoning were not a Successor, I would have supported Xiaoning and Young Hero Lin being together long ago. But Xiaoning's identity is special, so I hope Young Hero Lin can understand." Yu Xiaochen nodded in agreement. Clearly, Yu Tianxing had already discussed this with him beforehand. RS
