Chapter 809: Chapter 809: There Must Be Demons When Things Are Abnormal

"What’s wrong?" Yan Lingyi saw her frown, and her heart tightened for a moment.

For some reason, she was very concerned about Xia Weibao’s mood; even a slight frown seemed out of place to her.

"Auntie Yan, do you have something to tell me?"

"Why do you ask that?"

"You suddenly invited me to dinner, it’s a bit... overwhelming."

Xia Weibao chose her words carefully; she actually wanted to say that something unusual was definitely amiss, but that phrase was too rude. It was better to be tactful.

This was the First Lady of Huaxia, the former President of Huaxia, now the Secretary-General of the United Nations. How many politicians and high-ranking officials had wracked their brains and pulled every string they could to dine with her, to no avail.

It was rumored that the President of M country had to book a month in advance to have a meal with her, and in the end, it didn’t happen.

Yet here she was, making a special trip to Hongtu to dine with a minor celebrity like herself. Unusual indeed.

Xia Weibao thought to herself that it wasn’t strange to suspect them; it was the Yan Family that had caused her downfall three years ago.

Who knew what they were plotting now, three years later. Caution was the parent of safety.

Yan Lingyi’s smile stiffened for a moment; she picked up the juice beside her and took a light sip.

Concealing her awkwardness, she said, "I was just passing by and decided to invite you for a meal, don’t overthink it."

Actually, she herself did not know what was going on.

Ever since that day she had seen Xia Weibao at the Presidential Mansion, she had felt restless and unable to eat.

Strangely enough, just being around this girl made her feel incredibly calm, and her appetite would improve remarkably.

Yan Lingyi glanced at Xia Weibao sitting across from her. Even though this girl had stolen her daughter’s fiancé, she still liked her.

There was something about Xia Weibao that she was fond of, a certain feeling, though she couldn’t pinpoint what exactly it was.

Seeing her, something inside would soften. Perhaps it was because Xia Weibao reminded her so much of herself in her younger days.

Fearing Xia Weibao might be put off, Yan Lingyi did not dare to say more. After they finished the meal, she left.

On the drive back home, Xia Weibao’s mind was a complete mess.

When she arrived home, she saw Lu Huashan and Zhong Wanshu sitting in the living room watching TV.

Xia Weibao’s eyes lit up, "Mom, Shanshan, when did you get here?"

Lu Huashan was the first to jump up and hug her, bouncing around with Xia Weibao in her arms, "Baby, let me tell you, from today onwards, mom and I are moving to Lu Garden, so we can see each other every day. Are you excited, are you happy?"

"Really?"

Xia Weibao smiled, her eyes crescent-shaped with joy.

Happy, of course! The more, the merrier; how could she not be thrilled?

Seeing that Zhong Wanshu could walk now made her even happier.

Outside, hearing she had returned, Xiang Chu and Hepburn came in hugging and tussling with each other, each wanting to be the first to gain their master’s attention; neither yielding to the other.

Xia Weibao kicked each of them out, "Take your fight outside, don’t disturb me flirting with the beauties here."

Xiang Chu and Hepburn felt bitter inside, whining that their master didn’t love them anymore.

The two glared at each other, seething with anger.

"It’s all your fault, now master won’t pay attention to me!"

"It’s your fault, Lion Tiger was so fond of me and now she won’t even look at me!"

"It’s your fault!"

"It’s your fault!"

Without further ado, they resumed their fight, wreaking havoc on the European-style lawn in front of the villa.

When Xia Weibao stepped outside and saw this, she flew into a rage!

Oh, come on!

This lawn happens to be my favorite!!!

She kicked each of them into the Medicine Garden, "Go weed and fertilize my herbs!"
