A Family of Hopeless Romantics, Except for the Evil Little Junior Brother Chapter 406: Go Ahead and Laugh

Li Xuanxiao bid farewell to Miao Zhishun and returned to his room.

The room was now filled with various expensive tonics and supplents.

Li Xuanxiao raised an eyebrow slightly.

He had actually anticipated this outco.

The other party clearly intended to win him over, having taken notice of his alchemy skills.

They wanted him to serve Snowveil Comrce.

Li Xuanxiao didn't refuse their attempts to recruit him.

Firstly, Snowveil Comrce had indeed provided significant help this ti, and he owed them a favor.

Secondly, Di Nü Feng needed ti to detoxify, while he himself also required recovery ti.

"............"

Two months later.

Li Xuanxiao had basically stayed indoors without venturing out.

During this period, Cao Changjing visited Li Xuanxiao twice.

Then ca Caishen.

Though Caishen appeared sowhat bashful and restrained.

Li Xuanxiao focused on healing his injuries without overthinking it.

This ti his consumption had been enormous, but seeing Di Nü Feng's recovery progress made everything worthwhile.

On this particular day, Li Xuanxiao concluded his healing session.

He rarely erged to relax like this.

He typically avoided public appearances, concerned about too many eyes watching.

Just as he reached the riverside, a servant hurriedly ca looking for him.

Without even guessing, Li Xuanxiao knew it was Miao Zhishun seeking him again.

These days, Miao Zhishun visited Li Xuanxiao every couple of days.

Li Xuanxiao felt quite helpless but had grown accustod to it.

He familiarly located Miao Zhishun.

This ti, however, it wasn't just Miao Zhishun alone.

Caishen was also present.

Along with many people he didn't recognize.

Li Xuanxiao scanned the gathering with a glance.

"Co, let introduce you—this is my second uncle, this is my maternal uncle, this is my uncle by marriage..."

Miao Zhishun introduced each family mber to Li Xuanxiao one by one.

Though confused about the purpose, Li Xuanxiao maintained a flawless smile throughout.

After paying respects to everyone individually, Li Xuanxiao finally took his seat.

Good heavens, there were dozens of people present.

Li Xuanxiao's gaze inadvertently fell upon Caishen.

Noticing his look, Caishen shyly avoided eye contact.

Caishen, with her golden hair, was dressed exceptionally formally today.

She wore a Flowing Rosy rmaid Silk Dress that shimred with an ethereal luminescence unlike anything mortal.

The gems adorning it weren't ordinary stones but tear pearls condensed by deep-sea rmaids.

Only one tear pearl gem ford every two hundred years.

The dress itself wasn't static, with ever-changing cloud patterns and rosy colors flowing across its surface.

As she moved, the swaying hem gave the impression of stepping through shattered starlight.

This attire seed excessively formal for the occasion.

Before Li Xuanxiao could ponder further.

"You've been recovering quite well these past few days," Miao Zhishun remarked.

"Thanks to the tonics Uncle Miao sent," Li Xuanxiao replied.

"We'll all be family soon, no need for such formalities!"

This was already the countless ti Miao Zhishun had ntioned this.

Li Xuanxiao could no longer contain his curiosity, especially given today's elaborate setup which genuinely surprised him.

A bad premonition forming in his heart, he said:

"Uncle Miao, this junior truly doesn't deserve such words. After all, I remain an outsider."

Miao Zhishun waved his hand, "Soon we'll all be family." Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveI★Fire

As he spoke, he patted Caishen's shoulder.

This made Caishen's already flushed face turn even redder, like apples hanging from a tree.

Li Xuanxiao finally began to realize sothing.

Though he imdiately found the idea sowhat absurd, wondering if he was being overly presumptuous.

"There's sothing it seems appropriate to tell you today—it's wonderful news," Miao Zhishun said.

Li Xuanxiao's expression remained unchanged, though ripples of unease stirred within him.

"Wonderful news? Is it... my wonderful news?"

"HAHAHAHA!!"

As soon as Li Xuanxiao finished speaking, the nurous Miao family elders burst into laughter.

This made Li Xuanxiao's heart grow even more frantic—what exactly were these people planning?

Li Xuanxiao couldn't help but feel nervous, a rare sensation for him.

He even felt like he was facing a group of unknown powerful enemies.

Wait!! This aura........ it's been a while.

It's the aura of Senior Sister Abstract.

Thinking this, Li Xuanxiao even nervously began swallowing saliva.

After everyone finished laughing, Li Xuanxiao slowly spoke.

"Might I ask Uncle Miao what exactly this wonderful news is?"

Miao Zhishun laughed heartily, "Wonderful news, absolutely wonderful news!"

As he spoke, he affectionately patted Li Xuanxiao's shoulder.

This gesture made Li Xuanxiao's heart flutter with anxiety.

The corner of Li Xuanxiao's mouth twitched slightly.

Then he heard Miao Zhishun say.

"I've decided to let you...."

Miao Zhishun deliberately paused for a second.

Li Xuanxiao imdiately interjected: "Let this junior stay at Snowveil Comrce to practice alchemy, right? Uncle Miao is so understanding and kind, showing such great favor that this junior will never forget it.

Uncle Miao must know that this junior currently has nowhere to go, hence thinking of taking in.

Giving a place to belong, always saying we're family.

This junior left ho young and grew distant from my parents.

Yet sohow I feel an imdiate closeness upon eting Uncle Miao, who now shows such great kindness.

I also previously encountered Caishen by fate, unintentionally saving Uncle Miao's daughter in the secret realm.

If Uncle Miao doesn't mind, this junior would like to honor you as my sworn father.

Caishen would then be my younger sister, and henceforth we would be family—family doesn't speak like strangers!

Fortunately, with the Miao family elders present today, they can bear witness for . I hope Uncle Miao won't find this junior unworthy."

As he spoke, Li Xuanxiao already raised his tea cup, face full of sincerity.

Hearing this, Caishen imdiately changed expression.

The Miao family mbers glanced at each other in surprise.

"HAHAHAHAHA!!"

Miao Zhishun burst into laughter once more.

Li Xuanxiao felt his heart tremble slightly, looking rather speechlessly at Miao Zhishun.

Miao Zhishun laughed heartily while patting Li Xuanxiao's shoulder.

"Look at this silly boy, still thinking about becoming my sworn son."

Everyone imdiately joined in the laughter.

Miao Zhishun said, "Silly boy, why not dream a little bigger? Guess what exactly this wonderful news I ntioned is?"

Li Xuanxiao blinked, "Could it be... could it be..."

Miao Zhishun nodded, stroking his beard.

Caishen also raised her head, looking at Li Xuanxiao with anticipation.

"Could it be... could it be wanting to beco the director of the alchemy laboratory?" Li Xuanxiao said.

"AH HAHA!" Another round of roaring laughter.

Admittedly, each of Miao Zhishun's laughs now tugged at Li Xuanxiao's heartstrings.

The terror they induced wasn't even inferior to facing a Tribulation Transcension mighty expert.

Miao Zhishun laughed so hard he rocked back and forth, seemingly finally unable to contain himself, then said:

"Forget it, with such good fortune, you'll never guess no matter how long I let you. Today I'll just tell you directly."

Miao Zhishun looked at his daughter, placing one hand on Caishen's shoulder.

He extended his other hand to grasp Li Xuanxiao's shoulder, "We've decided... to allow you to marry into the Miao family, to permit you to join us and beco one of our family mbers. Young man, go ahead and laugh!!"

Li Xuanxiao: ..............

Huh?

What should I... laugh about?

(O_o)??

Li Xuanxiao's expression at this mont was exceptionally colorful.
