Scheduled visit on February 2nd

  Feng Xiaoxiao pulled Yang Yan back to the supermarket, made a big purchase for half an hour, and grabbed a bunch of semi-finished fresh meat, vegetables, fruits, and drinks, sauces, and seasonings at the right time. When queuing up at the checkout counter, she received another call from Jiang Li classmate, and then the person who paid the bill rushed over in time...

  "Oh, no need to be so polite, we bought the things, let's just pay and go." Feng Xiaoxiao politely declined, pretending to want to take out her purse.

  "No way, I was the one who wanted to come and get a free meal anyway. Besides, how can we let a girl pay the bill?" Jiang Li's face turned red as he insisted, forcing the money out first, and Feng Xiaoxiao didn't refuse anymore, timely zipping up her purse.

  Yang Yan silently gave Jiang Li a thumbs up from behind his back, and Feng Xiaoxiao smiled humbly and accepted it.

  Moved things back home and rushed to the rooftop, a small friend contributed a barbecue grill, two big men worked together to move tables and chairs from home, this dinner was settled.

  The meat and vegetable skewers were placed on the grill, during which Jiang Li grabbed a drink and hesitantly approached, stuttering in a low voice: "Xiao Xiao..."

  "What's wrong?" Feng Xiaoxiao glanced at Jiang Li, originally thinking that he was back for the usual check-in for his "picking up girls" activity, but now it seemed like there was something else?

  "Is it about what happened last time? Didn't you guys call me Chi You?! Because we need to form a new partnership, I went back and reported to Dad right away. He said..."

  "Hmmph!"

  The wind blew slightly and Jiang Li's violent coughing interrupted: "Cough, cough... Wait! You said you told your dad?!"

  Not to mention Feng Xiaoxiao, even Yang Zhen beside her was a bit stunned, and the chicken wings in her hand slipped into the charcoal heap without being noticed.

  Can something like a demon's reincarnation be casually discussed with others?! He didn't even mention it to his own father, how can this child be so naive?!

  "In a family like ours, where we're all assassins, trust and support for each other are crucial. If there's any update or change in a member's personal situation or recent actions, it needs to be reported immediately. After all, this will affect the arrangement of task intensity and scheduling, as well as analyzing potential impacts on our family business... etc.

  Jiang Li blinked naturally: "Just like when I applied to pursue you with Dad before, I prepared your information for a whole month - ten pages of resume and life intelligence, plus a 5,000-word written application..."

  Feng Xiaoxiao: "......"

  Yang Yan sighed in sympathy and patted Nuwa's shoulder to show condolences - now he finally understood why Jiang Li had asked the detective agency to do that before, it turned out that at that time they were updating and supplementing their information about him as a third-party rival.

  Swallowing hard, she tried to hold back her urge to rush at him and instead attempted to persuade herself not to dwell on past grievances. After all, first of all, the other party's emotional intelligence was insufficient, so even if she did mind, they wouldn't understand. Secondly, after conducting a thorough investigation, it was likely that her information had already spread throughout the upper echelons of a certain notorious assassin family. Thirdly, even if she did mind, she probably couldn't beat him... Of course, she would never admit that the most important reason was the last one...

  "Alright, let's not talk about those things for now. Just tell me how much you told your dad?!"

  "Of course it's all... is there a problem?!"

  The wind was so small that tears flowed all over his face, and he wanted to kneel down for this brother. He asked crazily: "Didn't your dad take you to see a doctor to check if you have any mental problems?!"

  "I was going to call him, but I transformed Blood Glare and Magic Horn again in front of him, so Dad believed me on the spot." Jiang Li seemed like a proud little boy who had just received a small red flower, answering with a hint of complacency.

  "Whoosh!"

  "Awesome!"

  Nüwa and Erlang Shen both cursed, damn it! This kid's innate talent is so freaking awesome!

  "After explaining the previous situation, Jiang Li patiently picked up his original topic: 'Dad's meaning is that there is no competitive relationship between the myth industry and the killer industry, so it's not a problem for me to form a new partnership with you. However, because of the inevitable intersection between the two circles in the future, I hope everyone can take some time to visit each other, strengthen mutual understanding, and explore possible cooperation in the future. For example, Dad is currently very interested in Xiaoxiao's repair ability...'"

  "...Collaboration with Killer House..."

  The wind was gentle and profound, with a distant gaze, when suddenly I found myself falling into an unfathomable mysterious world.

  Nüwa's entire person seemed to have become ethereal, as if she had seen through the red dust and shattered the void. Yang Yan, who had been aching for a long time, couldn't help but force himself to speak up: "I think cooperation is not necessary, we're not familiar with each other yet... Visiting is not out of the question, but I'd like to ask a question first, how many people in your household know our identities?"

  Because we have to guard against being spied on, the intelligence of family members is independent except for shareable parts such as basic physical data and specialties. Except for parents, others have no right to ask about it." Jiang Li nodded: "You can rest assured that currently only my father knows about our affairs."

  It's okay, I didn't go completely crazy... Yang Zhen let out a sigh of relief, feeling like he had come back to life.

  Feng Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth: "If we're going to meet, then let's meet! When is it?!"

  Jiang Lixi's face lit up with a smile: "Xiao Xiao, are you finally willing to go see my dad?!"

  This is said, how it's like a young couple meeting their parents for the first time...

  The wind was small and didn't make a sound, Jiang Li had already continued to speak happily: "Dad has just received a big order in the country these days, and will be able to visit in a few days... Xiaoxiao, do you think I should tell Uncle Li first?!"

  Feng Xiaoxiao looked at Yang Yan, and Yang Yan nodded and spread his hands: "I don't care, anyway I'm living in your house, it's fine anytime."

  "Li Chang doesn't seem to need to go out for a while, I think it should be fine." Feng Xiaoxiao thought for a moment: "Okay, when your dad is coming, let's get ready half a day in advance and give us a heads up."

  Jiang Li was very satisfied with the affirmative answer.

  Feng Xiaoxiao and Yang Yan also accepted reality, made up their minds and directly pushed the matter to the back of their minds.

  The barbecue dinner on the rooftop was rekindled, switching to light topics and eating and drinking with abandon. Two hours later, only a pile of bones remained, and Feng Xiaoxiao's number one experimental product, Nie Renjia (Muddy Man), came up to clean up the mess. The three of them parted ways, each returning home with a satisfied expression, not mentioning it again as they went to sleep.

  The next day, Li Chang announced that Taoyi Bar was ready and could open at any time. Feng Xiaoxiao and Yang Yan set out to inspect their future workplace.
