Chapter 72: Wholeheartedly Wanting to Protect Her_1
"Mm-hmm, I won’t be shy."
Shen Tianxing, under the warm hospitality of the Dugu family, had eaten until her little stomach was stretched, and the evening ended perfectly amidst everyone’s laughter.
Dugu Zixi brewed tea for everyone again, chatting with Shen Tianxing and her grandparents, parents, as they casually brought up some of Shen Tianxing’s matters.
Since Shen Tianxing had chosen to come to Capital City with Dugu Zixi, she had no intention of continuing to hide her family’s situation.
She roughly explained her family’s situation to the Dugu family and sincerely invited them to visit the Shen Family’s ecological estate whenever they were free.
The elder Mr. Dugu and his wife, now both retired, were idle and had nothing to do. Upon hearing Shen Tianxing’s invitation, both elders immediately responded with a laugh, "Sure, once we’ve made arrangements, we’ll go visit your ecological estate and take the opportunity to meet your parents and elders."
While they were chatting merrily, Li Ming and his father, Li Hetong, who had scheduled to pick up Shen Tianxing at eight o’clock, arrived to pick her up at seven fifty.
The Li Family and the Dugu Family both resided in the Imperial Compound, though the Dugu Family, with their higher status and influence, lived deeper within.
The Li Family was a bit closer to the outskirts, but the distance between the two families wasn’t far, only about a kilometer or so.
Yesterday, while chatting with his family, Dugu Zixi had mentioned that Shen Tianxing would have dinner at their home today and would later attend to General Li’s medical needs.
