Mesmerizing Ghost Doctor

Chapter 2706: Another invitation

“Because we men don’t go shopping very often, it’s up to you to decide where to go.” Xie Yutang paused for a moment before asking Feng Jiu. “Little Jiu, where are you going? Will you be back later?”

“I should not come back here because I have something to do.” Feng Jiu responded while ambling along.

“Will we see you again someday? Xie Shisi asked.

Xie Yutang cast a glance at his sister. “He’s not coming back, so how are we going to see him again? We won’t see him again, of course.”

Feng Jiu chuckled but said nothing when she heard his remark.

“Oh, so that’s it!” Xie Shisi looked at Feng Jiu. After thinking about it for a while, she said, “Even if I never see you again, Little Jiu, I won’t forget you.”

“Thank you.” Feng Jiu answered with a smile.

“Oh, and by the way, my mother’s birthday is in two days. Let’s go get something for her. I’d like to purchase some jewellery as well. I’ve heard the city has a large jewellery store. Let’s go take a look.”

“Sure.” Feng Jiu agreed, so the three of them went to the store after inquiring about its location.

After shopping, they went for a walk and didn’t return home until it was dark. When they entered the mansion, however, the steward informed them that Madam was looking for them. So the three of them went to the rear courtyard.

“Why are you looking for us, Mother?” Xie Shisi ran up and sat next to her.

......

The beautiful woman looked at Feng Jiu. “Little Jiu and Yu Tang, the Ruan family’s Fourth Miss sent an invitation for you to visit her home tomorrow.” She looked at them with surprise in her eyes. “When did you get acquainted with the Ruan family’s Fourth Miss?”

Xie Yutang was stunned for a moment after hearing this. “The Ruan family’s Fourth Miss?” Since he did not remember her, he turned to Feng Jiu and asked, “Do we know her?”

Feng Jiu’s gaze shifted slightly as she answered, “That’s the girl in the bamboo forest, Ruan Ruyun.”

“Oh, it’s her!” Xie Yutang had an epiphany. “However, we are not friends with her and have only met once.”

“The Fourth Miss has remarkable strength among the direct descendants of the Ruan family. It is rumoured that she originally suffered from an unmentionable illness but that she got better for some reason. She was discovered to have exceptional talent. She is currently the most gifted member of the Ruan family.” The beautiful woman glanced at them and said, “During your absence, the Ruan family has been taking excellent care of the Fourth Miss.”

She spoke again after a brief pause. “This is the invitation she sent, and you were the only people invited. I accepted the invitation because you were not at home. Make your own decision about whether or not to go. It makes no difference if you choose not to go. You can invite her to our home when I held my birthday banquet.”

After making this suggestion, the beautiful woman nodded. “I’m thinking about inviting her over just in case something else goes wrong.” Since they were in their own home, nothing would happen if they remained vigilant.
