That's great! I have a pair of little ones at home, and in a few days, they will turn four. My elderly mother insists that we not only hold a grand celebration but also make it a memorable one. I wonder if Miss Sang would be willing to take on the banquet at her place?
When Ze mentioned his little ones, Sang Qingxiao wore a smile. When he talked about the grand celebration, she still smiled. However, when he brought up his elderly mother, her expression stiffened for a moment.
Qi Xiaomian noticed this change in her demeanor. Although she didn't know why Sang Qingxiao reacted that way, she instinctively spoke up for her, saying, "Isn't the banquet here at Nectar done exceptionally well? We could simply book several floors here and avoid the hassle of hosting at home."
Ze sighed, "I had thought of that too, but my mother fell recently and hasn't recovered well enough to go out. So, the banquet must be held at home."
Nectar doesn't do takeout, so I thought of Miss Sang's place. Last time I bought Buddha Jumps Over the Wall from Small Tavern; it was preserved with runes and stayed fresh for two days without losing its flavor or texture. It truly left a lasting impression.
Today, by chance, I ran into Miss Sang and casually asked her about it. If I hadn't encountered her, I would have planned to inquire at Small Tavern in a few days. If Miss Sang finds it inconvenient...
"There's no inconvenience," Sang Qingxiao quickly adjusted her mood and smiled. "Feel free to send someone to my Small Tavern to discuss the menu. I will seal all the dishes with runes the day before the banquet; just remember to send someone to pick them up. However, I won't be able to serve in anyone else's kitchen."
"Of course," Ze replied. "With Miss Sang's status, no one would dare ask you to work in their kitchen."
It seemed that Ze was quite talkative today. After discussing personal matters, the topic shifted back to business. "By the way, did the Yongxin Marquis attend the banquet with you today?"
Ze leaned in closer and lowered his voice significantly, covering his mouth with his cup as if sharing a secret. "Is there something going on?"
"Just a guess," Qi Xiaomian replied. "But it seems there's something unsettling."
"It's not just me who feels uneasy when Miss Sang appears; look at those old fellows across the room. They usually sip wine lightly but have been glancing over here multiple times. Some have even put on their outer garments, clearly planning to leave if things go awry."
"If you're scared, you could leave right now," Ze suggested.
"No way! If I leave before those old men do, they'll laugh at me endlessly."
So, your pride is more important than your life?
Mainly because I believe the Yongxin Marquis will protect us court officials.
Hmph! Old Fox! When you go out, can you not have skilled guards around? You just want to watch the show.
Qi Xiaomian didn't engage in banter with him and turned to Sang Qingxiao as she set down her chopsticks. "So? Is there something going on?"
"I didn't see any demons," Li Cu interjected quickly, "but there is a faint aura of demonic energy."
Sang Qingxiao nodded in agreement with her observation.
So, he has come into contact with demons. Could it be that Miss Sang is tracking the target through the demonic energy on Cao Lin?
That’s possible.
Thank you, Miss Sang.
Sang Qingxiao reached out from the corner where a potted plant stood, plucking a flower and removing its petals, leaving only two symmetrical ones. She pointed at them to form a symbol, attaching it to the petals. The petals began to flutter like delicate butterfly wings, brushing against Cao Lin's back a few times before flying away from the banquet hall.
