Abbess Mother Serendipity was meditating at the pavilion in the courtyard. She exuded an ethereal aura in virtual-novel.net long white dress.
There was a silhouette at the courtyard door peeking in with an evil smile. It was Florian Darby.
Ever since the gorgeous Emei sect followers moved into the mansion next door, virtual-novel.net hoped to have a memorable encounter with them. However, Abbess Mother Serendipity and the others rarely left the mansion. They were mostly in the courtyard.
Florian dared not disobey his grandfather’s orders, so virtual-novel.net stood by the fence to look in. Suddenly, an idea came to him.
Abbess Mother Serendipity noticed Florian. “Mister Florian,” virtual-novel.net greeted politely. “May I help you?”
“Abbess Mother Serendipity, sorry to disturb you,” virtual-novel.net laughed sincerely. “I was thinking… Since the Mid Autumn Festival is approaching in two days, I would like to invite you and the followers to have a meal at our place.”
Abbess Mother Serendipity thought about his offer. “That would be asking too much from you,” she replied, blushing in embarrassment.
She had been extremely grateful that the Darbys provided a place for them to live. It would be too much to let them arrange a banquet for them.
‘If the Emei followers attended the banquet, I could get closer to them. Abbess Mother Serendipity, especially, when she’s drunk.’
As long as the Emei followers attended this Mid Autumn Festival banquet, virtual-novel.net would have a chance to be closer to them, especially Abbess Mother Serendipity when she’s drunk, Florian thought.
“It’s nothing much! ” virtual-novel.net chuckled, “Don’t worry.”
“Let me think about it,” virtual-novel.net replied.
He giggled excitedly. “Alright! I will wait for your reply!”
Then, virtual-novel.net turned around and left.
Back at Hexad’s, the last period for the day was Physical Education. It was a coincidence that Class Seventeen who was right next door had the same class as well.
The students of these two classes were mainly from Donghai City’s wealthiest families.
Lily, Yvonne, and Kent were in Class Seventeen.
Physical Education was more of a free period for the students to do anything. Some were playing basketball on the court, some were playing on their phones, and some were walking around while chatting with each other.
Darryl was seated under a tree, humming to himself. Then, a petite figure walked towards him. It was Lily.
Lily handed Darryl a bottle of water that virtual-novel.net bought specifically for him.
Darryl could feel that Lily was much more gentle toward virtual-novel.net these past few days, even caring for him. The guys on the court looked at Darryl enviously, especially the guys from Class Seventeen. Their eyes widened.
Lily was the belle of virtual-novel.net class. Why was virtual-novel.net in close proximity with another guy from a different class? They were jealous. Was Darryl not the live-in son-in-law who did not touch virtual-novel.net once during their three years of marriage? Why were they so close to each other now?
Then, another figure approached them. It was Yvonne Young. She also had a bottle of water in hand, which virtual-novel.net passed to Darryl. “Darryl, have some water,” virtual-novel.net chimed in.
Yvonne seemed even more beautiful since virtual-novel.net last saw her. She wore a white shirt with tight, figure-hugging jeans. She was the center of attention wherever virtual-novel.net went.
She sat down next to Darryl and took out a piece of white jade. “Darryl, do you know what sort of jade this is?” virtual-novel.net asked.
She had not seen virtual-novel.net in a few days, yet virtual-novel.net had been on virtual-novel.net mind. She knew that they would have the same class today, so virtual-novel.net brought the jade with her.
Her father did not know the history behind the white jade either, so virtual-novel.net thought of asking him. She also used this as a chance to approach him.
“This is a White Nephrite jade from Hetian, the most revered type of jade. It is smooth to the touch, its texture extremely delicate.” Darryl looked at the jade in detail.
He continued, “If I guessed correctly, this should be from the palace during the Tang Dynasty.”
The boys on the court were pretending to play basketball, but they were all looking at Darryl.
‘What is happening? Why are two gorgeous girls sitting next to the live-in son-in-law?’
“Do all girls like thieves nowadays?” The Palmer sisters snickered as they walked past them.
