Chapter 968 Ruined Xi Family’s Banquet



The Xi family was a small family in the country side but the children of the Xi family other than Xi Sang who was haughty and stubborn, were filial and respectful.

Thus, Assistant Xi's father would always hold a grand celebration for his father's birthday, this year was the same as well with no changes at all. Xi Zheng arranged a birthday banquet for his father and invited everyone including Xi Junxi, his younger brother who offended his son a few days ago.

When Assistant Xi found out that his father had invited his second uncle, his expression wasn't good. He still hadn't forgotten how his uncle did not even care about him and the trouble he might bring because he wanted to suck up to the Gu family.

" I know that you are unhappy but your grandfather does not know that your second uncle caused trouble for you," said Xi Zheng as he patted his son on the back. " If we leave him out purposefully then your grandfather will definitely question about it, he is already so old...there is no need for us to trouble him."

Assistant Xi did not want to even meet with his second uncle but when he thought of how his grandfather was getting old, he silently agreed with his father. As someone from the younger generation, he shouldn't create trouble for his elders, so he did not say anything and allowed his second uncle's family to come to their family banquet.

He thought that Xi Sang would be smart enough to not bring that ghost woman to their banquet and cause unnecessary panic but he overestimated his cousin's wisdom. With arrogance blinding his eyes, Xi Sang couldn't care less about the health of his grandfather or the panic he might cause in the banquet if he were to bring a ghost with him.

Thus, even though Father and Mother Xi tried to dissuade him again and again, he did not listen to a word they were saying to him. Instead, he asked Lady Yan to prepare herself for the banquet and drove her to the Xi family's house in the city. He wanted to show off in front of his relatives who always compared him with Assistant Xi thus how could he even think of anything? Without listening to a word that his father said to him, he stepped out of the car and then headed towards the house where the banquet was being held.

The house where Assistant Xi lived with his family was rather big because his salary was among the highest paid assistants, he did not have any lack of money he bought a house which was big enough to hold at least fifty people with ease and because Old Master Xi did not want to make a huge fuss, the Xi family did not hold the banquet in a famous hotel and did some simple preparations at their house in the city.

" What a show-off," when Xi Sang saw the huge house which was even bigger and more luxurious than his cottage, his eyes flashed with greed and envy. He couldn't help but feel upset with his father if his father had allowed him to move to the town then he would be living in a big house like this as well!

Lady Yan's eyes also flashed with greed but her greed was different than Xi Sang, she looked at the young and old humans walking inside the house and licked her lips wickedly. Looks like coming to this place was worth it —- she turned to look at Xi Sang whose eyes were filled with jealousy and sneered before morphing her expression to that of a gentle one and then leaned against his arm before saying,

" Don't worry husband, you are the best in my eyes no matter what."

Only then did Xi Sang snap out of his daze, at first he wanted to turn around and leave but when he heard Lady Yan's voice, he snapped out of his daze. He obviously came here to show off in front of Assistant Xi how can he leave just like that? Thus he puffed his chest out and said, "Let's go, my wife."

Father Xi looked at his foolish son and then turned to look at his wife, the two of them did not know what to say anymore. They exchanged a helpless look with one another and then followed their son inside the house, they tried to stop Xi Sang but that stubborn man threatened them with leaving the house and not caring about them ever again.

They were already so old—— Father Xi was now having trouble working on the farm because of his bad knees, if their son left then how would they survive? They were still hoping to enjoy filial piety from their son!

If he left them, then what will they do?

Thus, the two of them couldn't stop Xi Sang.

The banquet inside the Xi family's house was going on in full swing. The distant relatives from far-off cities came to celebrate Old Master Xi's birthday bringing a smile to the face of Old Master Xi as he clapped along with his great-grandchildren. n0veLusB.c0m

Assistant Xi also heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Xi Sang and his family did not come to the banquet. He thought that his second uncle's family knew some tact and thus skipped attending the banquet but just as he turned to look at his sister who stood next to him, he noticed the shock on her face.

Startled, Assistant Xi too turned to look in the same direction as his sister and was stunned when he saw that his second uncle's family had finally arrived at the banquet but what shocked him to his core was that beside Xi Sang stood that female ghost, Lady Yan!

The entire living room suddenly fell silent as the guests of the Xi family turned to look at the transparent-looking woman and then turned their attention to Xi Sang who was beaming with joy for some reason that they couldn't understand.
