The next day, Sophie took the initiative to invite the male and female protagonists and Murong Zhi to her courtyard for dinner.
It is called a hometown association.
Murong Zhi was already feeling apologetic, so he happily went there.
Although Lingsi felt depressed, she did not refuse.
It just so happened that Mu Ying came to ask him some questions, so he went to the appointment with her.
Night falls and the bright moon rises in the east.
Sophie specially prepared a table of snacks and several bottles of fine wine, waiting for the three people to arrive.
In order to make the medicine work faster, she poured the liquid in the porcelain bottle into Lingsi's wine glass.
When everything was ready, there was a knock on the door.
She happily stood up and opened the gate.
"Welcome everyone..."
Sophie smiled widely, but her words stopped abruptly when she saw the visitor's face.
"Seeing me, you seem disappointed?"
Xuan Lin stood in front of the door condescendingly.
He was dressed in white clothes that were whiter than snow, and looked particularly cold and awe-inspiring under the moonlight.
"Uncle Master, what are you talking about? Yan'er is so happy to see you, how could she be disappointed?"
Sophie laughed dryly and welcomed the man into the yard, secretly wondering in her heart why this guy showed up at such an inopportune time.
"Recently, Junior Brother Ling has been using his spiritual inquiries to ask me about my nephew's situation. Before leaving, he stopped by to take a look."
Xuan Lin calmly explained his purpose, and Sophie nodded repeatedly and invited him to take a seat.
Ever since she came to Accord, she had been only thinking about completing her mission and leaving, and hadn't bothered to contact Father Ling at all.
The last time she was attacked by an evil spirit, it must have been Father Ling who asked Xuan Lin to come and save her.
It seems that it is indeed time to communicate more with Father Ling and let him know that I am safe.
"Why, are there other guests today?"
Xuan Lin's slightly cold gaze swept across the three wine glasses that had already been filled with wine, and Sophie reported truthfully after hearing what he said.
"Master, actually Yan'er invited me today..."
Wait, why did she say "still"?
Before he finished speaking, he heard footsteps approaching from afar. When he turned around, Ling Si and the other two had arrived to keep the appointment.
The expressions of the few people who were originally calm suddenly changed after entering the door.
"Lingsi greets Master!"
"Mu Ying greets His Majesty!"
"Murong Zhi greets His Excellency!"
The three of them greeted Xuan Lin in unison, completely losing their relaxed mood for the banquet.
"Well, everyone, get up."
Xuan Lin raised his eyes calmly.
Looking at the younger generations who were like frightened birds, he lifted his robe and took a seat.
“Ah, this…”
Sophie was stunned for a moment.
"Is there anything wrong?"
Xuan Lin raised his sharp eyebrows, and a cold look appeared on his face.
Sophie shook her head repeatedly, then obediently went into the house and moved another chair out to place at the table.
"Meeting together is fate. Since Master-Uncle is willing to sit at the same table with us, there is no need to be too restrained. Let's eat and drink."
Sophie stood up with a smile and served wine to everyone.
In line with the principle of quick victory, she handed the first glass of her specially prepared secret wine to Lingsi.
Unexpectedly, Ling Si always respected his teachers. He raised his hand and pushed the wine to Xuan Lin through Sophie's hand.
"Master has traveled thousands of miles to the imperial capital and personally cured Senior Sister Ling of the evil spirit poison. This first glass of wine should be dedicated to Master!"
Seeing Xuan Lin raising his hand to take it, Sophie's heart was alarmed.
She didn't have time to think about it, and poured the wine into her mouth in a flash.
In an instant, four pairs of eyes fell on her.
She put down her empty glass with an awkward smile.
"Since I'm the one who set up this game, I should naturally fulfill my duties as a host and drink first to show my respect! Come, Uncle Master, this is my turn to toast you!"
Sophie stood up and poured wine for Xuan Lin.
As she raised her glass, she looked at the cold-faced man opposite her who was radiating a charming aura.
He cursed: “Fuck…!!”
