Xia Xing exclaid in surprise, "Young Madam, aren’t you going to attend?"
Nan Yu sipped her soup indifferently, "Don’t worry about . If he needs it that badly, then give it to him."
Xia Xing received the invitation from Nanny Wang’s hands and eting Nan Yu’s carefree expression, a hint of respect for her erged in his heart.
"Young Madam, thank you."
Nan Yu responded with a pleasing smile, "You’re welco."
After Xia Xing took the items, he left and went straight back to the company.
"President Huo, I’ve got the invitation."
Hearing the voice, Huo Juanyan lifted his eyes, the cold mask adhering to his face, making him appear even more indifferent.
"Did she make any requests?"
Xia Xing, with a face full of joy, said, "President Huo, the Young Madam didn’t make any requests and handed the invitation straight away."
He placed the invitation in front of Huo Juanyan and took out the box as well.
"Not only that, but the Young Madam also sent you a blanket as a thank-you gift, saying it was in appreciation for finding Lawyer Sun for her."
Huo Juanyan’s cold gaze swept over the box, resting on the invitation.
"I don’t need her blanket, throw it away. I just want this invitation," he said.
After saying that, he pinched the invitation between two fingers, checking its authenticity.
Upon hearing these words, the smile on Xia Xing’s face froze and he hesitated, "President Huo, it might not be appropriate to throw it away. The old madam should know about the gift the Young Madam sent you. If she asks about it later, it might be difficult to explain."
Huo Juanyan’s expression darkened slightly, "Then keep it in your car. Take it out and use it the next ti you go back to the old house. At other tis, don’t let it appear before ."
Xia Xing quickly agreed, "Yes, President Huo."
Huo Juanyan then put away the invitation, "You don’t need to accompany to the banquet tomorrow night. Secretary Chen is returning to A City tonight; have her accompany tomorrow evening."
"Yes, President Huo."

At the Nan Family ancestral ho.
Nan Qingqing looked at the gift sent over by ng Yi, her face revealing a pleased smile.
She said to ng Yi on the other end of the phone, "Xiao Yi, I didn’t expect you could find this item in such a short ti. It must have cost a lot of money, right?"
ng Yi replied to her, "Qingqing, as long as I can beco the Ghost Doctor’s apprentice, this amount of money is nothing."
A hint of dark intent flashed in Nan Qingqing’s eyes, "Don’t worry, after I et the Ghost Doctor tomorrow evening, I’ll make her take you in as an apprentice. Then, you will be the Ghost Doctor’s sole personal disciple."
ng Yi, excited, asked, "Do you have the invitation? Can I go?"
Nan Qingqing, looking at the gift in her hands, said, "With this gift, you are not just getting an invitation; you are guaranteed to be the Ghost Doctor’s beloved disciple. Be prepared for tomorrow night, we will go to the banquet together."
ng Yi, thrilled, said, "Qingqing, I’ll be depending on you then!"
Nan Qingqing narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Mm~"
After hanging up the phone, she held the gift in her hands, then turned and went back to the living room, heading toward Duan Zhu, who was arranging flowers.
"Mom, the Ghost Doctor is returning to the country tomorrow. May I go to pick her up?"
Duan Zhu paused her actions, looking at her with puzzlent, "Why do you want to pick her up?"
Nan Qingqing took out the gift she was holding and said with a shy face, "Mom, I admire the Ghost Doctor a lot and have specially prepared a little gift for her. I’d like to give it to her in person."
"But I’m afraid she won’t accept it at the banquet since there will be too many people, so I want to take the opportunity to give it to her while picking her up when there are fewer people around."
Duan Zhu, looking at the graceful and decent Nan Qingqing, especially that face which mirrored her own in her youth, felt a surge of doting affection for her own daughter.
"Alright, I’ll arrange it for you."
