Having taken a few days to rest at home, Yu Jingrong had mostly recovered from his injuries when he suddenly received an invitation from the Cao Family. The stated reason for the invitation was a banquet celebrating the patriarch of the Cao Family's birthday.
However, Huo Yunjing, who had come to check on Jingrong afterward, informed him that the banquet would likely be the occasion for the announcement of an impending marriage alliance between the Cao Family and the Meng Family.
Huo Yunjing asked Yu Jingrong if he wished to attend the banquet. After she left, Jingrong asked Li Chengyun if he would like to attend as well.
"The Cao Family did not invite me," Li Chengyun responded.
"They didn't not invite you. They merely didn't dare to," Yu Jingrong replied, waving the invitation, "How about coming as my family member?"
