After Xue Batian calmed down, he realized that there were quite a few people present. Even Gu Jinyuan was here, which really shocked him.
“Young Master Gu, why are you here? Oh my, my future grandson-in-law is also here! Thank you so much. If not for you, how could I have advanced to the Spirit Master Eealm so quickly?” Xue Batian grinned from ear to ear when he saw Ye Jiushang. He called him his grandson-in-law very warmly.
Without him, he would never have had any hope of advancing to the Spirit Master Realm in his life. His precious granddaughter had actually found him such a powerful grandson-in-law. Not bad, not bad!
“Grandpa, we’re all family. There’s no need to be so polite.” Ye Jiushang knew how important Xue Batian was to Xue Fanxin. To win the beauty’s heart, he naturally had to treat her grandfather better.
“Yes, yes, yes. We’re family. Haha, we’re family.”
“Grandpa, congratulations on becoming a Spirit Master.” Xue Fanxin knew that the Spirit Master Realm was not that big of a deal, but in the Heavenly Saint Empire, it meant that one stood at the top. The four great families only had one or two Spirit Masters.
“Hehe! Little Xin’er, I’ve become stronger now. I’ll protect you in the future.”
“Sure, sure! With Grandpa backing me, I can boldly cause trouble.”
“You brat, what nonsense are you talking about?”
“Hehe!”
Only then did Xue Batian realize that Xue Fanxin was already in the Spirit Refining Realm. He said in extreme shock, “Little Xin’er, when did you advance to the Spirit Refining Realm? While I was in seclusion, you were only in the Spirit Awakening Realm. Did I spend a long time in there?”
Although he was in seclusion, he still had a concept of time. It had not been long, at most half a month.
In just half a month, his precious granddaughter had jumped from the Spirit Awakening Realm to the Spirit Refining Realm. He felt that she had advanced even faster than him.
Did she have to hit him so hard?
“Grandpa, a lot has happened while you were in seclusion. I’ll tell you later. Let me make a delicious meal first. Congratulations for advancing to the Spirit Master Realm.”
“Sure, sure! I’ve been in seclusion for so long; I’m famished. Quickly get me a delicious meal.”
Gu Jinyuan was about to return to the Heavenly Treasure Trading Company. As soon as he heard she was cooking, he started salivating. He was in no hurry to go back and stayed for the meal.
“Xin’er, look, we’re all tired and hungry. Why don’t you let us eat too?” Gu Jinyuan said shamelessly.
Who would have thought that the dignified Young Master of the Heavenly Treasure Trading Company and the Young Master of the First Restaurant would actually abandon his principles for food?
He really could not be blamed. After all, Xue Fanxin’s food was worth that much.
“Alright! Then you can stay for dinner,” Xue Fanxin said generously. She would not be stingy with real friends.
Ye Jiushang stood there expressionlessly. He suddenly frowned, and his expression got a little ugly. He said coldly, “You guys chat. I’ll go deal with some things.”
Everyone was stunned. Even Xue Fanxin did not say a word. By the time she reacted, Ye Jiushang had already disappeared.
“What’s wrong with the Ninth Imperial Uncle?” Ah Wei asked weakly. He suspected that Ye Jiushang did not want them to stay for dinner, so he left unhappily.
However, Xue Fanxin knew that things were not like that.
What on earth happened?
