However, Liao Ning didn’t intend to avoid facing it.
“Alright, then will you come to the concert? Father invited the eldest son of the Su family to play the piano this time,” He Yuan said in high spirits.
He remembered that Liao Ning had mentioned that she liked the Su family’s musical performances.
Coincidentally, he and the eldest son of the Su family, Su MO, were former classmates, so he had many common topics to talk about with Liao Ning.
“Then I’m really looking forward to this banquet,” Liao Ning said.
When He Yuan heard the answer, he was stunned.
Liao Ning wasn’t as interested in music as the original host, but Planet Mu 007’s annual banquet was indeed approaching.
At that time, hunters from every village would hold a gathering in front of the church to thank the forest for bringing them a bumper harvest over the past year.
It was a good festival.
Liao Ning was a little tempted, but she still had the system’s mission now, so she would probably have to miss this grand ceremony.
At this moment, the system notification in her mind said: [There is a high probability of unlocking the hidden mission related to the original host’s identity on Planet Mu 007. Host, please arrange the mission time reasonably.] Liao Ning was surprised. The system gave her such timely help!
At this moment, Liao Nai tugged at the corner of Liao Ning’s shirt and said, “Aunt, will the banquet be lively?”
“Of course. On that day, all the hunters in the village will sit around the long table and eat heartily. Then, they’ll sing and dance at the bonfire until dawn. It’ll be the most festive day during the year,” Liao Ning explained.
“Then can I go?” Liao Nai looked up with anticipation in his eyes.
Liao Ning said with a smile, “Of course.”
As the aunt and niece smiled at each other, He Yuan asked in surprise, “Is this your nephew?”
“That’s right.”
“Hello, sir!”
Liao Nai greeted He Yuan obediently, but he grabbed Liao Ning’s arm and hid behind her as he made a grimace.
He wanted to snatch her away? No way!
He Yuan couldn’t help but laugh. Then, he patted Liao Nai’s head as he praised,
“You look different than in the live-streams. You’re even cuter than in the live-streams.”
Liao Nai shrunk his head and blushed in shame when he saw He Yuan’s smile.
Could it be that he had really misunderstood this man’s feelings for his aunt?
“Alright, I still have work to do, so I won’t catch up with you guys anymore,” He Yuan said. When he looked at Liao Ning, his eyes were filled with sadness.
He lowered his eyes slightly and said with a smile, “Liao Ning, see you next time.”
Liao Ning also sensed that something was wrong and felt an inexplicable sense of heartache, but she was very sure that it wasn’t her feelings.
“See you next time.” Liao Ning said goodbye to He Yuan.
After He Yuan waved at her, he turned to leave.
After just a few days, they were separated forever.
As Liao Ning looked at He Yuan’s lonely back figure, she felt indignant for the original host again.
If Cui Yin and Gu Lie hadn’t done such a thing, the original plot wouldn’t have been like this.
Moreover, when she saw He Yuan today, she recalled her confrontation with Cui Yin not long ago.
According to Cui Yin’s strategy, did she really plan to assassinate the original host and obtain the inheritance?
Liao Ning felt a little heavy-hearted.
She felt that she still had to return to Planet Mu 007.
She would see the arrangements for the competition first.
After deciding, Liao Ning held Liao Nai’s hand as they returned to the hotel.
When they arrived at the lobby, they saw that many people had gathered in the front hall of the hotel, including a few streamers who had checked in at the same time as Liao Ning.
“We want the hotel manager to give us an explanation, not an automaton like you!”
A man grabbed an android and cursed.
“Sister, you’re finally back! Things were so scary just now!” When Yu Ni saw Liao Ning return, she immediately ran over from her seat and spoke to Liao Ning with tears in her eyes.
Liao Ning frowned slightly.
Liao Nai looked at Yu Ni unhappily.
“What happened?” Liao Ning sighed as she held Yu Ni’s arm.
Seeing that her cries were effective, Yu Ni said, “Someone broke into the hotel just now. All the rooms from the tenth floor to the fifteenth floor were smashed.”
Liao Ning was shocked. Wasn’t the fifteenth floor of the hotel where she and Liao Nai were arranged to stay?!
Little White was still in the room!
Liao Ning sensed that something was wrong. After she helped Yu Ni back to her seat, she looked back at Liao Nai.
Liao Nai nodded and immediately transformed into his beast form before walking towards the stairs with Liao Ning.
“Liao Ning, where are you going? It’s dangerous up there!” Yu Ni cried out in shock..
