"Miss, have you decided whose roof you want to tear off? Just say it, don't hesitate." Grandpa Pei asked when he saw Nangong Xi suddenly fell silent.

Nangong Xi: ...

This lady has just arrived in Dark City, and there is really no one I want to rip off the roof of.

"Mr. Pei, tell me the truth..." Nangong Xi paused here.

"You're welcome," Mr. Pei said immediately.

"No." Nangong Xi shook her head.

Mr. Pei:...

If you hadn't looked so serious, I would have thought you wanted to tear off the roof of the Holy Lord's house.

If Nangong Xi knew what he was thinking, she would definitely be speechless.

You are not sick, so why would you lift the roof of your house for no reason?

"Let's talk about it after we have it." There was a hint of disappointment in Mr. Pei's tone.

Nangong Xi: ...

Could it be that this old man is addicted to lifting people’s roofs but is having trouble finding an opportunity?

That's why I'm so looking forward to talking about a family that wants to tear the roof off.

"Mr. Pei, why do I feel like you are a little disappointed?" Nangong Xi looked at Mr. Pei suspiciously.

"No, absolutely not. I am definitely not itching to lift the roof of someone else's house because I haven't done that for a long time." Grandpa Pei shook his head when he heard that.

Nangong Xi: ...

Mr. Pei, aren't you trying to cover up your guilt?

Upon hearing this, the head of the Pei family covered his eyes and dared not look directly at it.

You know best what kind of person your father is.

"Master Pei, is there anything to eat? I'm hungry." Nangong Xi looked at Master Pei who was standing aside.

"Food? There's plenty of it. It's been prepared long ago. Please follow me, young lady." Upon hearing this, the head of the Pei family immediately led the way.

"Miss, are you really not disliking anyone?" Old Master Pei followed again.

“There’s nothing I don’t like yet.” Nangong Xi shook his head.

"Is that so? Let's go and have dinner." Mr. Pei said nothing more.

Seeing Mr. Pei’s depressed look, Nangong Xi couldn’t help but laugh.

When the head of the Pei family brought Nangong Xi to the door of the banquet room, they saw a man and a woman standing there.

They looked at Nangong Xi with great curiosity.

"Dad, Grandpa." The two of them called out.

"Yinsong, Yinyan, why are you here?" The head of the Pei family looked at them and asked.

"We heard that you invited the eldest lady back, so we were very curious and came back to take a look," Pei Yinsong said with a smile.

"Miss, you are obviously very suitable to be our Pei family's distinguished guest." Pei Yinyan looked at Nangong Xi with shining eyes.

Nangong Xi: ...

Is it suitable to be a distinguished guest?

Isn't it the case that whoever the Pei family treats as a guest is a guest of honor?

"Yinyan, don't be rude." The head of the Pei family looked at his daughter with a frown.

"Dad, the eldest lady looks very generous and not fussy. She won't bother with me." Pei Yinyan said.

"Miss, we have never disciplined Yinyan since she was a child. If she has offended us in any way, please be tolerant." The head of the Pei family looked at Nangong Xi with an apologetic look on his face.

"I think Miss Pei looks very pleasing to the eye." Nangong Xi said.

"Miss, just call me Yinyan." Pei Yinyan looked at Nangong Xi and said.

"Okay." Nangong Xi nodded with a smile.

After Nangong Xi and the other two happily had their meal at Pei's house, they prepared to say goodbye and go back.

"Miss, please come for dinner often when you are free." Pei Yinyan looked at Nangong Xi with reluctance on her face.

"Okay, you can also come to the City Lord's Mansion to play with me." Nangong Xi looked at her with a smile.

I have to say, Pei Yinyan seems to be really good.

Nangong Xi and the others said goodbye to the Pei family and went back to the City Lord's Mansion.

"Miss..."

"what……"

Before Nangong Xi and his companions reached the City Lord's Mansion, a young man blocked their way.

But as soon as he said "Miss", he was kicked out by Anming.

"Anming, do you know him?" Nangong Wuji on the side looked at Anming speechlessly.

"I don't know him." An Ming shook his head calmly.

"Then why did you kick him away? I thought you had a grudge against him." Nangong Wuji said he was speechless.

"I have no grudge against him, but this kick of mine is to eliminate the possibility of making enemies with him." Anming replied.

Nangong Wuji: ...

What is the logic?

"Demon Concubine, I didn't mean it. I just felt that he was a little disgusting, so I couldn't help but kick him." Seeing Nangong Xi looking at him, An Ming hurriedly explained.

"Are your shoes okay?" Nangong Xi said as he looked at Anming's foot.

Anming has a quirk. If he kicks someone he doesn't like with his shoes, he won't want that pair of shoes anymore.

"It's okay this time." An Ming said with a smile.

"That's good." Nangong Xi said and was about to continue walking forward.

"Miss, please wait. I am Kuang Yanwu, the eldest son of the Kuang family." The boy who was kicked away got up again.

Nangong Xi looked at the wretched boy who limped towards her, resisted the urge to kick him and just looked at him.

Kuang Yanwu: …

Why are you looking at me like that, Miss?

Could it be that the young lady has taken a fancy to me?

Kuang Yanwu couldn't help but feel narcissistic in his heart.

If An Ming knew what he was thinking, he would have to kick him a few more times to wake him up.

"If you have something to say, say it. If not, get out of here and don't block the road." An Ming looked at him coldly.

"Miss, tomorrow is my birthday party and I'm here to deliver the invitation." Kuang Yanwu handed an invitation to Nangong Xi.

"You can go now." An Ming took the invitation and said to Kuang Yanwu.

Kuang Yanwu: …

The guard beside the young lady is so crazy!

Nangong Xi just nodded to Kuang Yanwu and continued walking forward.

Nangong Xi had a very bad impression of the Kuang family.

"Xixi, what birthday party are you going to attend?" Nangong Wuji looked at Nangong Xi curiously.

"The Kuang family must have other purposes." Nangong Xi said.

"Then do you want to go?" Someone as smart as Nangong Wuji must have seen it.

"Go, go and take a look." A glimmer of light flashed across Nangong Xi's eyes.

The invitation has been delivered to me, it seems a bit rude not to go and have fun.

"You just love to play." Nangong Wuji said helplessly.

The three of them returned to Nangong Xi's palace and went to rest.

The next day.

Nangong Xi took Nangong Wuji and Anming with him and headed towards Kuang.

"Miss, Miss." Nangong Xi heard Pei Yinyan's call as soon as she arrived at the door of Kuang's house.

"Yinyan, you are here too." Nangong Xi smiled at her.

Pei Yinyan is a very lively and active girl, and looks very comfortable and pleasing to the eye.

"Yes, Miss, I didn't expect you to come. That's great. I won't be bored anymore." Pei Yinyan's eyes were full of excitement.

"Yinyan, what are you thinking about? It's impossible for your seat to be together with the eldest lady's seat." Pei Yinsong looked helpless.

"That's right, the eldest lady's seat must be closer to the front." Pei Yinyan suddenly reacted.
