Bai Qinghuai frowned, then asked in return:
"Is this a scene from a Chinese ghost story? Even fox spirits are appearing?"
"Perhaps it's Daji?" Xiao Yuan rarely joked.
"But then again, if even curses can determine life and death, what about animals becoming spirits?" Xiao Yuan looked into the distance.
These things used to be just fiction, but now that they've suddenly appeared in reality, it makes him feel uneasy.
"So what do you plan to do?" Bai Qinghuai asked seriously.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, beings are not allowed to become spirits.
"I'm not sure either, let's wait and see." Xiao Yuan also looked worried.
This kind of thing can't be publicized to everyone, and it seems that Xiao Yangjing and that little fox have reached some kind of agreement.
But despite his several attempts to subtly probe, Xiao Yangjing remained tight-lipped.
No one heard their conversation, and Xiao's mother, who was inside the house, promptly called Lou Xiaoxiao.
She quickly explained the situation and earnestly asked Lou Xiaoxiao to check if Xiao Yangjing had been cursed.
Lou Xiaoxiao had no reason to refuse the Xiao family, such a big spender, so she immediately agreed and took a taxi to come over.
When she arrived, it was already dark. Lou Xiaoxiao wanted to investigate Xiao Yangjing, so she needed to find the blood of someone in front of him or someone related to him by blood.
Xiao's mother was quite generous and decisively offered a drop. Immediately afterwards, Lou Xiaoxiao was seen sitting on the living room sofa, her hands clasped together in a gesture.
The room fell silent. The two children were taken back to their room to rest, while Bai Qingzhi sat curiously to the side watching.
Lou Xiaoxiao opened her eyes after an incense stick had burned, but her answer surprised Xiao's mother.
Xiao Yangjing was not bewitched or cursed in any way; his relationship with that woman was entirely voluntary.
At first, Xiao's mother thought that she could forgive her son if he fell for the trick, but now that the master had said so, she would definitely tell Xiao's father to beat that unfilial son to death when she got back.
"But don't worry, your son and daughter-in-law's marriage is not over, and they will eventually get back together." Lou Xiaoxiao noticed Xiao's mother's depression and comforted her.
"Really?" Xiao's mother's eyes widened, filled with joy.
After seeing Lou Xiaoxiao nod affirmatively, Xiao's mother was finally relieved, but her intention to have her husband beat Xiao Yangjing remained unchanged.
Lou Xiaoxiao sat on the sofa listening to everyone's conversation. Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Bai Qingzhi's forehead and then frowned slightly.
"Qingzhi, come closer to me." Lou Xiaoxiao waved.
Bai Qingzhi was both curious and admiring of Lou Xiaoxiao, and immediately moved over when she heard Lou Xiaoxiao call her name.
The next second, Lou Xiaoxiao placed her hand on Bai Qingzhi's temple, closed her eyes, and fell into meditation.
He released his hand almost a minute later, and before anyone could ask their questions, he turned around and pressed down on Xiao Yuan's hand again.
"Something's not right..." Lou Xiaoxiao muttered to herself.
She checked last time and found that Xiao Yuan's marriage hadn't changed recently, but today she saw that they were both pregnant?
What's even more interesting is that when she was examining the marriage line, she discovered that the two people's lines were not connected!
In other words, the two do indeed have some happy news coming up, but it's not for either of them...
"What's wrong?" Xiao Yuan asked, frowning.
Lou Xiaoxiao mentally organized her thoughts, but ultimately gave a hesitant and stammering reply:
"I've noticed that Qingzhi's romantic prospects have recently changed..."
"You were able to figure this out?" Xiao's mother asked in surprise.
She knew Lou Xiaoxiao was very capable, but she didn't expect that Lou Xiaoxiao knew about their unfinished business.
Xiao's mother admired her even more.
Lou Xiaoxiao was interrupted and for a moment didn't know how to explain what she had just discovered.
But her half-sentence was interpreted differently by everyone, and Xiao's mother directly said loudly:
"To be honest with you, my dear in-law, I have indeed been looking for an auspicious day these past few days. I originally planned to visit your home to propose marriage, settle the matter between the two children, and hold an engagement banquet. But Master Lou saw through my plan today, so I won't hide it from you anymore."
Bai's mother had already anticipated this, so she wasn't too surprised.
She had vaguely heard that the Xiao family was looking for someone recently, and she knew without a doubt that it was for this matter.
"A proper marriage with proper betrothal and formal arrangements." Mother Bai had no demands on the Xiao family.
“Of course, in this life I only recognize Qingzhi as my eldest daughter-in-law.” Mother Xiao pounded her chest loudly.
Bai Qingzhi was completely stunned by what she saw. How did they suddenly start talking about engagement?
Xiao Yuan looked at her with tender eyes, knowing that his wish would soon be fulfilled.
Lou Xiaoxiao was the only one in the room, curled up on the sofa with a pained expression. If she were to reveal what she had just discovered at this moment, she would probably get beaten up.
I should find a time to tell Xiao Yuan quietly. At least their relationship seems fine, something must have happened.
The Xiao family acted quickly, searching around but failing to find a suitable person. In the end, Xiao's mother decided to let Lou Xiaoxiao be the master of auspicious dates.
Although this isn't Lou Xiaoxiao's specialty, it's probably not bad either.
Lou Xiaoxiao did not disappoint her. She found the nearest auspicious day, and the Xiao family came to visit with gifts and a matchmaker.
They didn't intentionally notify the gossip media, but the Xiao and Bai families already received a lot of attention, and they didn't try to be discreet when they went to propose marriage.
Sixteen of the twenty limited-edition supercars appeared in City A that day. Xiao Yuan also bought a complete set of disassembled gemstones at three auctions around the world and even specially applied for a local flight, with the plane flying overhead with a banner.
A grand procession of red bridal processions, with flowers raining down from the sky—on the day of the marriage proposal, Xiao Yuan led his entourage on a double tour of City A.
The entire city's LED screens were filled with Xiao Yuan's confession to Bai Qingzhi; Xiao Yuan didn't miss a single opportunity to advertise.
Even within the Xiao family's businesses, any couple with a marriage certificate can enjoy these benefits for free.
In just one day, adults and children alike got to know Xiao Yuan and the woman he deeply loved.
On the day of departure, Xiao Yuan lingered in front of the mirror for more than half an hour, feeling that his clothes were not perfect each time, and he changed the bouquet of roses in his hand several times.
Bai Qingzhi from the Bai family was in a similar situation, wearing a little dress and constantly asking her older sister if she was okay.
"Qingzhi is the most beautiful, especially today, she looks like a fairy descended from heaven!" Bai Qinghuan answered with certainty.
The moment Xiao Yuan stepped into the Bai family's gate, their eyes met, and the tension they had just felt vanished instantly.
It's like, as long as you see the other person, you feel safe.
Madam Bai personally oversaw the operation, while the Xiao family was led by Old Master Xiao, followed by various direct descendants of the Xiao family.
According to ancient etiquette, the two exchanged birth dates and times, and Xiao's father respectfully stepped forward to pay his respects.
Finally, Xiao Yuan walked up to Bai's parents.
