After everyone was seated, Zhang San took the seat of honor at the upper end, while Hu Xingxiang promptly took the seat beside him.
Since all the guests invited today were Zhang San's important friends, there was no separation of seats by gender, and everyone sat together.
Seeing Hu Xingxiang directly sitting next to Zhang San, Lady Yu furrowed her brows, casting a glance at Ximen Jinxing beside her.
At that moment, Ximen Jinxing also finally realized that a crisis had arrived.
Zhang San raised his glass to toast everyone, expressing his thanks.
As soon as everyone had set down their glasses, Aunt Nine raised hers again.
"Zhang San, thank you for taking in my niece. You also know the situation at Hundred Flowers Fang and Jingshan Fang, monitored by the Town Demon Office, yet still somewhat chaotic. She's young, and I'm actually less at ease with her on my side. With you looking after her, I, as an aunt, can rest assured. This cup, I toast to you!"
