At this moment.
Liam and his group had indeed arrived at Spirit City. Bibi Dong had even arranged a home for them, a large villa on the first ring road within Spirit City.
The scenery in the courtyard was as beautiful as a manor.
It made people admire Qian Renxue's mother for having such a grand vision!
Hu Liena became more and more confused the more she looked.
This house seemed to have belonged to Glowing Feather Douluo before. With such a good house, Glowing Feather Douluo surely wouldn't have given it up, right?
So.
Teacher wasn't giving face to herself, but to Liam!
"That..."
"Liam, you guys go rest first. I'll go to Spirit Hall to find Teacher. I'll come back to pick you up in the evening."
Liam nodded slightly and replied:
"Okay!"
"Remember to thank Bibi Dong for me."
Seeing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo also bid farewell:
"Then I'll go back with Nana. If you need anything, just instruct the people below."
"Thank you, Senior Ju."
Liam watched Hu Liena and Chrysanthemum Douluo leave.
Ning Rongrong muttered beside him:
"Bibi Dong is really generous. This place is probably something you couldn't buy even with money..."
Xiao Wu said with a look of surprise, "This place is bigger than the entire Shrek Academy, and the houses are a hundred times more beautiful than those at Shrek."
Dugu Yan said in a low voice:
"Bibi Dong's intentions are not simple."
"Hehe!"
Liam smiled and didn't explain anything.
It was just a normal operation to win people over.
Bibi Dong had the diary copy, so she naturally knew her own power. She was also a smart woman, how could she not have vision?
Pope's Hall.
Hu Liena and Chrysanthemum Douluo returned.
Chrysanthemum Douluo stepped forward and called out:
"Your Majesty, Liam and his group have been arranged."
Bibi Dong nodded slightly and said indifferently:
"You may go down first!"
Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo nodded and withdrew.
Hu Liena stepped forward and called out, "Teacher, I... Are you alright recently?"
Bibi Dong looked at Hu Liena and replied:
"What could be wrong with Teacher?"
Saying that.
Bibi Dong got up and walked to Hu Liena's side, stroking Hu Liena's small face, dotingly said:
"Nana, Teacher is truly happy for you. A Soul Douluo with four ten-thousand-year spirit rings and Spirit Bones, even a normal Title Douluo might not be your match."
"Teacher is proud of you!"
Hu Liena said somewhat awkwardly:
"Sorry, Teacher, I actually wanted to help you get some rewards, but! I failed to do it."
Bibi Dong replied with a smile, "It's okay. How are your feelings with Liam now?"
Uh.
Hu Liena said with some confusion:
"Why is Teacher suddenly asking this?"
Bibi Dong said with a solemn expression:
"Liam's power is even stronger than I initially estimated, whether it's his current strength, his diary, or his knowledge from another world."
"It's not easy for our Spirit Hall to unify the Continent. If Liam assists, we can easily unify the Continent."
"Although Teacher doesn't want there to be any benefit in your relationship, but! For the sake of our Spirit Hall, Teacher still wants you to win over Liam, is that okay?"
Hu Liena nodded, hesitating in her heart, and ultimately didn't speak up.
Hu Liena actually knew that Liam would help Spirit Hall, but the Spirit Hall Liam would help was her or Qian Renxue's Spirit Hall. Teacher's situation was unclear, and Liam would probably always be wary of Teacher in his heart.
Alas.
Hu Liena also sighed in her heart, damn Yu Xiaogang!
Seeing Hu Liena nod, Bibi Dong didn't say anything else and said with a smile:
"You are like Teacher's own daughter. This time you brought a man back, Teacher must carefully check him out for you."
"Nana, come back to my sleeping quarters with Teacher and tell me about your recent affairs. While you're at it, help Teacher pick out a nice outfit to properly receive your man tonight."
"Okay, Teacher."
Hu Liena quickly nodded.
Qian Renxue: She is your own daughter!
Evening.
Bibi Dong booked the largest hotel in the city and invited everyone to a banquet.
Ostensibly, it was a welcoming banquet for Liam and his group, but in reality, it was like... this could be considered the first friend gathering!
Liam brought Ye Lingling, Dugu Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, Huo Wu, and Xiao Wu to the hotel with Hu Liena.
Bibi Dong, as the host, had already arrived.
Liam led the group and called out:
"Pope."
At this moment, Bibi Dong was wearing a gorgeous cheongsam, perfectly showcasing her curvaceous and graceful figure and the charming allure of a mature woman.
Originally, a group of beautiful girls together would be a vibrant display of competing beauty.
However!
They were all overshadowed by Bibi Dong's stunning presence.
Ye Lingling and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged glances, a hint of strangeness in their eyes. Bibi Dong's attire instantly made these young and beautiful girls feel a sense of envy.
Ning Rongrong, Huo Wu, and the others secretly felt a little unhappy, "You're a mother, and your child is older than us, yet you're dressed like this... Well, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it!"
We were careless.
If we had known, we should have dressed up carefully before coming to the banquet.
Bibi Dong's expression was calm as she said gently:
"You are all Nana's friends. Nana has had no family since she was young, and I have always treated her as my own daughter."
"Everyone, don't be shy. Treat me as Nana's older sister and just call me Sister."
"Come, please take a seat!"
Ah?
Ye Lingling and the others also felt strange in their hearts. Shouldn't they be calling her Aunt?
How come Bibi Dong felt like Spirit Kite Douluo, who liked people to call her Sister for no reason.
Liam nodded slightly and didn't say anything, leading the group to their seats.
After all, women!
None of them wanted to be called old. Although Bibi Dong was crazy, she also hoped to be called younger. Saying "Sister Dong" obviously wasn't as good as "Dong Aunt" for gaining points.
Seeing everyone seated, Bibi Dong had someone pour tea and said:
"Please wait a moment."
"I just received word that Spirit Kite Douluo brought a little friend back and is now on her way from Spirit Hall."
Huh?
Huo Wu, who had been feeling timid, instantly became happy when she heard that Spirit Kite Douluo was coming back.
Zhu Zhuqing and the others were curious.
Spirit Kite Douluo brought a little friend back?
Who is it!
Immediately after.
The banquet hall door was pushed open, and Spirit Kite Douluo walked in from outside with Jiang Zhu, looking at Bibi Dong and calling out:
"Pope!"
Bibi Dong nodded slightly and said:
"Spirit Kite Douluo, you don't need to be formal today. Tonight, I am here as Nana's elder to have dinner with Nana's friends."
"You all sit down!"
Ling Yuan waved and smiled at Liam in greeting, then took Jiang Zhu to sit down and introduced her to everyone:
"This is Jiang Zhu. She originally studied at Blue Tyrant Academy and will be transferring to our Spirit Hall Academy next."
Upon hearing this, Huo Wu quickly waved at Jiang Zhu and said, "Quick! Little Sister Jiang Zhu, come sit here with me."
Huo Wu: My three supporting sisters are here.
