Chapter 551: Celebration Banquet (2)_1
Xiao Muli was telling lies to the two old women without a blush or a skipped heartbeat. And as she did so with such earnestness, the two old madams didn’t doubt her for a second, not even Situ Xin, who was stunned by Xiao Muli’s serious demeanor and found himself wondering, "What does Grandpa Xiao want to tell me? What does he need to say to me?"
"Old Xiao has something to say to Baby," said Old Madam Loo, before turning to Situ Xin, "Baby, you stay here, then. Grandma and I will head back first."
Old Madam Situ then told Xiao Muli, "Muli, Grandma Loo and I will go back to the hotel. After you finish talking with Baby, please send him back, but don’t be too late, alright?"
"Grandma Loo, Grandma Situ, don’t worry. Once I’m finished talking with Xiao Xin, I’ll send him back to the hotel," assured Xiao Muli, her heart leaping with joy at their concession, though she didn’t show it on her face.
Having received Xiao Muli’s promise, the two old madams left Situ Xin in her care without worry. After all, they had watched Xiao Muli grow up and trusted her character completely. Besides, Situ Xin and Xiao Muli had grown up together, their bond was anything but ordinary, so handing Situ Xin over to Xiao Muli was something they did with complete peace of mind. However, if these two old madams ever found out what Xiao Muli’s actual intentions were towards their precious Baby, they would have deeply regretted their actions today. But that’s a story for later.
Situ Xin and Xiao Muli watched the backs of Situ Xin’s family’s Female Warrior Group as they left. Then Situ Xin asked, "Muli, what did Grandpa Xiao want you to tell me?"
"My grandpa wanted to ask when you will give his grandson an official status," Xiao Muli said with an intense gaze, already tightly clasping Situ Xin’s hand, their fingers interlocking.
"You, you, you," Situ Xin stammered as he looked at Xiao Muli before finally saying, "Xiao Muli, you’re such a liar. Grandpa Xiao would never ask that."
