Chapter 885 - 403_2
Only that, after the Butler of the Xiao Family, acting on his mistress’s instructions, had sent out the invitations to the Xu Family, his return was a bit unusual.
Several times upon seeing Situ Xin, he would appear hesitant, as if there was something on his mind he wanted to say.
After a few instances, Situ Xin couldn’t help herself: "Butler, if you have something to say, just say it. Don’t beat around the bush in my presence with that look of having something to say but not wanting to speak."
"Madam, when I went to the Xiao Family to deliver the invitations, it was Lady Xu who received the delivery. It’s just, Lady Xu did not seem particularly happy when she received the invitations," the Butler cautiously observed Situ Xin’s expression as he spoke.
"Oh? Is that so?" Situ Xin raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Yes, and I don’t know if it was just my imagination, but it felt as if Lady Xu received the invitation I handed her as if it were a hot potato," the Butler at one point wondered if his eyes had deceived him.
"I see, now that is quite interesting," Situ Xin responded to the Butler’s words, not at all angry, but instead her face revealed an expression of interest.
She had thought that given the heritage of both the Situ and Xiao families, many people were eager to form connections with them. But now, given the Xu Family’s attitude, it seemed not to be the case. This was indeed beyond her expectations.
