Mr. Ning's face suddenly flushed with heat.
Ning Xiaoyou was also embarrassingly uncomfortable, feeling that this explanation might have been worse than offering none at all.
Then, everyone heard Mrs. Xia Ning say, "Who will fetch an invitation for me?"
Upon the Family Head's command, all the Ning Family elders present began to signal their children with their eyes, gesturing for them to hurriedly carry out their aunt's request to gain her favor.
The younger generation eagerly rubbed their hands together, sparks of competition igniting among them.
"Auntie! I'll get it for you!"
"Auntie! Let me go!"
"Auntie! I can do it!"
Everyone clamored to be the one to go, all rushing for the door at once, leading to the doorway being blocked, and nobody could get out.
However, Ning Xiaoyou and Ning Mo were smart enough not to join the fray.
But their eyes were eagerly fixed on Mrs. Xia Ning, clearly hoping she would call on them directly, seeing how sensibly they were behaving.
