Chapter 110 Attending the Banquet

  Early in the morning, Baiwei took a taxi back home and as soon as she entered the house, she saw her grandparents' expressions and knew that what happened at the dormitory last night had been exposed. However, except for her aunt saying something to Guo Xiaoxian, no one else said anything, so Baiwei didn't need to explain either.

  "Xiao Qian, you followed Xiao Wei sister out for half the night, didn't you think it was quite fun?"

  "What's fun about it? I'm going to accompany Little Wei, and at the same time, observe how Little Wei serves patients."

  "Look, our little Qian is really a kind-hearted child."

  "That's right, and don't forget who her mother is."

  Guo Xiaoxian was indeed a talkative girl. With just a few words, she coaxed her mother Baiying into a happy mood, and she no longer blamed her.

  "Xiao Wei, Xiao Qian, hurry up and eat something, then go take a nap in your room."

  Grandma Bai is heartbroken for her granddaughter and great-granddaughter, repeatedly urging them on.

  Baiwei didn't feel tired after meditating with Congye, but instead felt refreshed. However, since grandma said so, she didn't plan to explain further and still hadn't planned to tell her family about the secret between her and brother Congye. After eating a few bites of breakfast with cousin Guo Xiaoxian, she lay down in her room again. Guo Xiaoxian fell asleep soon because she hadn't slept well, but Baiwei couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

  Open the mobile browser, log in to "Hero's Home" again, roughly browse through it, and see that there isn't much updated content. Guessing that it should be because Little Hui hasn't gotten out of bed yet.

  For this "Home of Heroes" website, when Yan Qingcheng mentioned that it might have good commercial value in the future, Bai Wei didn't take it to heart. However, a few days ago, a merchant actively contacted Zhi Xiaohui and asked to post an advertisement, which got everyone excited. For this reason, Yan Qingcheng, Zhi Xiaohui, Bai Wei, and Cong Ye gathered together for a meeting, and coincidentally, Guo Xiaoqian and her classmate Zhou Wannong were also present, so they joined the meeting together.

  The meeting mainly discussed whether the website should accept all advertisements or be selective. It was unanimously agreed that in order to maintain the initial impression of "Hero's Home" in the minds of fans and to protect the reputation of the website, only some green ads related to youth and growth would be selectively accepted. As for webpage content, except for the original introduction of Cong Ye and Yan Qingcheng's personal lives, no other content involving personal aspects will be posted.

  So, thinking and thinking, Perwie didn't even know when she fell asleep herself.

  Before eleven o'clock, the two sisters were woken up by Peri's aunt, Baiying.

  "Xiao Qian, Xiao Wei get up quickly, we're going out for lunch at noon."

  "Mom, even if we're going out to eat, do we have to leave so early?"

  "It was Yang Caiyun who invited our whole family and specifically asked us to bring Pei Wei. Since it's someone else's treat, arriving late wouldn't look good."

  "Mom, our two families didn't have much contact before, did we?"

  "It didn't exist before, but it does now."

  "What's next?"

  "Didn't your uncle and aunt move to Chun City? Qin Susu's grandma's house is in Chun City, I heard Yang Caiyun say on the phone that her brother and sister also came, they will have lunch together at noon, and also invite your uncle and aunt to join."

  "Mom, there are so many people, Xiaowei and I won't go then?"

  "Your grandma and grandpa aren't going. It's just our four families, it seems like there are six on her side, and also six on our side."

  Seeing Guo Xiaoxian still wanting to ask, Bai Ying bluntly interrupted her and said:

  "Don't ask anymore, hurry up and wash up, won't you understand when we arrive at the hotel?"

  "It seems like mom is looking forward to this meal a lot."

  Guo Xiaoxian muttered discontentedly, but still let her mother Baiying hear it.

  "Is your mom so useless? She's just thinking that since your uncle and aunt have just arrived in Spring City, they're not familiar with the place, having one more acquaintance isn't like having one more road to take? Otherwise, she wouldn't go out for dinner on such a hot day."

  Bai Wei was listening on the side, when she heard her aunt say that Xiao Qian's classmate's grandma's house was in Spring City, she didn't think much of it. However, thinking again about her cousin's classmate's mother surnamed Yang, her heart couldn't help but move a little, only to immediately deny the sudden idea that popped up:

  "It's impossible to be so coincidental, there are many people with the surname Yang."

  However, Pei Wei also found it strange that Yang Yi had made a phone call as soon as he arrived at the airport and then there was no news from him. Pei Wei didn't believe that Yang Yi would choose to give up after putting so much effort into pursuing her.

  When the two sisters finished dressing up, the six people from both families arrived at the hotel, and it was already 12 o'clock. On the way, Baiying complained to Guo Xiaoxian:

  "It's all because of you dawdling, look, it's already twelve o'clock."

  "Mom, they'll definitely wait for us to arrive before serving the dishes, so don't worry about them getting cold."

  "Who taught you this oily tone?"

  "Little Wei's sister."

  "Go away, don't rely on me, I've only been with you for a few days. Honestly, tell Auntie, isn't this an early romance?"

  The two sisters sat in the back row seats and laughed for a while.

  As soon as she entered the hotel lobby, Bai Wei saw Yang Yi standing there. Looking at the expression on Yang Yi's face as he walked towards her, Bai Wei knew that this was another one of Yang Yi's schemes.

  "Xiao Wei, didn't expect this, did you?"

  "Hehe, it's somewhat unexpected."

  At this time, Pei Wei could only introduce Yang Yi to her parents.

  "Dad, Mom, this is Yang Yi, also my senior."

  "Uncle Bai is good, Auntie is good."

  Yang Yi immediately introduced Bai Wei to his uncle and aunt.

  The whole scene was a bit like the first meeting between parents of young men and women who had secretly determined their romantic relationship. Pei Wei's face always wore a smile, and she didn't explain to her mother Li Xia the doubts in her heart.

  The room was booked by Yang Caiyun long ago, and twelve people sat down without feeling crowded.

  When seated, Bai Cen, Qin Chuan and Yang Yi's uncle Yang Qichang sat in the main guest, host and deputy main guest seats respectively. Yang Yi sat next to Yang Qichang, followed by Bai Wei, Qin Susu, Guo Xiaoqian, Bai Ying, Yang Caiyun, Yang Yi's aunt Jiang Hao, and Bai Wei's mother Li Xia sat close to Bai Cen.

  Ziran Bai and Li Xia were able to attend this banquet, definitely because Yang Qichang from the Spring City Technical Supervision Bureau came. Having just been transferred to an unfamiliar environment, Bai and Li would not miss any opportunity to learn about and get familiar with Spring City. So most of the time, it was Bai and Yang chatting, occasionally Li would ask Jiang Hao and Yang Caiyun next to her some questions about Spring City.

  Yang Yi tried several times to talk to Bai Wei about what he had done in Beijing, but Bai Wei just responded politely and didn't show any interest in Yang Yi's topic, so Yang Yi could only keep quiet.

  "Xiao Wei, how's Cong Ye doing?"

  "Brother Congye has become much better."

  "As the saying goes, 'hurt tendons and bones take a hundred days to heal', Xīao Wēi won't be planning on staying in the infirmary until school starts, right?"

  "Hehe, won't."

  Yang Yi felt a lot more at ease after hearing Bai Wei say that. But then, Bai Wei's next words made him tense up again.

  "Brother Congye is recovering very well now, and if nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to recover in about 20 days. At that time, we may need to go back to Guanhai together."

  "How is it possible?!"

  "Little Wei, what did you say? Brother Congye will be able to recover in twenty days?"

  Kuo Hsiao-chien was extremely surprised by what Bai Wei said and asked.

  Because of Guo Xiaoqian's loud voice, the people talking at the table stopped and looked at Bai Wei together. They had also heard what Bai Wei said earlier, that Cong Ye would be able to recover in more than 20 days.

  "Xiao Wei, is it true?"

  "Mom, it's true. Brother Congye has practiced qigong before, and he's been relying on qigong to heal his injuries, recovering extremely quickly. From the B-ultrasound images, the doctor said that at most, in twenty more days, he'll be fully recovered."

  "How can it be so mysterious? Isn't the common saying that a tendon injury takes 100 days to heal, how is it possible for bones to break and regrow in just half a month, it feels like fantasy."

  Qin Susu and Guo Xiaoxian exchanged a glance, both shaking their heads in disbelief.

  Perhaps Yang Yi didn't want to mention Cong Ye's affairs, so he changed the subject and asked Bai Wei with concern:

  "Xiao Wei, how is your body now?"

  "It's still like that, sometimes good and sometimes bad."

  The conversation between the two immediately caught the attention of Li Xia and Bai Ying, who almost simultaneously asked:

  "Xiao Wei, what's wrong with you again?"

  "Mom, auntie, I'm fine. It's just that before the holiday, I went out to eat with Yang Yi, and for a moment, I indulged in some fruit juice from the KTV private room, and ate a few more bites of fruit from the fruit platter, and then my whole body felt weak, and I was dizzy and drowsy, and it took many days before I recovered."

  "How careless you were! You should be more careful in places like that from now on."

  "Mom, I've only been there once. But later Yang Yi sent me medicine twice, and it was effective. I still have some of that medicine in my luggage, and I haven't had a chance to thank Yang Yi yet,"

  As he spoke, he turned his head and looked at Yang Yi, picked up the drink on the table with a casual hand, and toasted Yang Yi:

  "Come on, Yang Yi, thank you."

  Pei Wei could clearly see a hint of panic in Yang Yi's eyes, but it was quickly covered up by Yang Yi.

  Bai Wei's words just now made Yang Yi's heart skip a beat.

  Especially, Pei Wei emphasized that it was after drinking the juice in the KTV room and eating the fruit platter there that she became weak all over and started to feel dizzy. Especially, according to what Pei Wei said, it seemed that she didn't eat the medicine she sent herself, but rather kept it instead. Why did she say she sent medicine twice? Did Pei Wei also know about letting Du Mu Lin send the medicine?

  "Big brother, what are you daydreaming about? Uncle Bai is offering you a toast!"

  "Ah? Thank you, uncle."

  If it wasn't for her cousin Qin Susu's timely reminder, Yang Yi really didn't see Bai Can holding his wine glass towards him. Perhaps to cover up his own embarrassment earlier, Yang Yi tilted his head and downed more than half a cup of white wine in one gulp, then said to Bai Can:

  "Uncle Bai, I should be the one showing respect."
