The most important thing for a family to maintain its longevity was to maintain its vitality. The source of vitality came from the younger generation of the family. They were the fresh blood of the family. Only with the continuous influx of fresh blood could the big machine of the family keep running.
Therefore, the Coming of Age Ceremony was a big day that every family clan placed great importance on, and the Xiao family was no exception.
As one of the three great clans of Wu Tan City, the coming of age ceremony of the Xiao clan naturally attracted the attention of various factions in the city. Some factions that were friendly with them were even directly invited to participate in the coming of age ceremony.
……
Accompanying Xun Er, he sat under the shade of a big tree. The cool breeze blew gently, making him feel warm and comfortable.
Xiao Yan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the enormous stage in the distant arena. The stage was made from an enormous piece of wood. It was a stage that was specially built for the purpose of holding the Coming of Age Ceremony this time around.
Xiao Yan's eyes swept over the empty stage. He immediately shifted them to the crowd below the wooden stage that had come from various factions. He helplessly softly said,"There are so many people…"
Seeing Xiao Yan's somewhat depressed face, Xun Er, who was aware that he liked silence, immediately laughed in a gloating manner.
Xun Er sensed Xiao Yan's vicious gaze just as her laughter was emitted. She hurriedly shut her small mouth and swept her gaze over him. A faint golden glow flashed across her limpid eyes that were difficult to detect. She laughed in a somewhat surprised manner,"Xiao Yan ge-ge has reached 8 Duan Qi?”
Hearing this, Xiao Yan glanced at her. It seemed that he could not hide anything when he was with this girl. He sighed in his heart and nodded weakly.
"Tsk tsk…In less than a month, he broke through to the eighth stage. This speed…is too terrifying.”Seeing Xiao Yan nod his head, even with Xun Er's calmness, she could not help but reveal a surprised expression.
Rolling his eyes at her, Xiao Yan's moving eyes suddenly paused. In the direction of the giant wooden platform, there was an enchanting woman in a red dress. She was chatting with people with a sweet smile. The full and exquisite body under the red dress was faintly discernible and extremely seductive. At this moment, there were already quite a number of people surrounding her, and it had become the most lively circle below the stage.
This red dressed woman, whose smile and frown were filled with a mature charm, was the chief auctioneer of the Temir Auction House, Ya Fei, whom Xiao Yan had met before.
Xiao Yan's gaze randomly swept over the water snake-like waist. He quietly sighed in his heart,"What a masterpiece!"
Just as Xiao Yan's gaze paused on Ya Fei's body, a young lady's soft snort was suddenly transmitted from beside him.
"Cough…" Blinking his eyes, Xiao Yan withdrew his gaze without leaving a trace. He smiled at Xun Er, who had an indifferent expression on her small face, and said,"I didn't expect someone from the Primer Auction House to come to our family's coming-of-age ceremony.”
Glancing at Xiao Yan, who was acting as if nothing had happened, Xun Er said indifferently,"The Xiao family has a good relationship with Wu Tan City's Temir Auction House. What's so strange about her coming? Moreover, this woman's social skills were publicly acknowledged as powerful in Wu Tan City. Some young masters who had gone after her beauty had spent an unknown amount of money on her, but in the end, they had not even seen a single bubble. If Xiao Yan ge-ge had such thoughts, he had to be careful. Xun Er would not lend money for you to do these things.”
Hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled awkwardly and bitterly said,"Even if I have such thoughts, it would have to be someone who thinks highly of a little brat like me. She's seven or eight years older than me.”
"Don't some women like this?”Xun Er's small red lips twitched as she spoke with a smile that was not a smile.
Letting out a dry cough, Xiao Yan could only retreat in defeat. His gaze no longer dared to shift to that circle.
"Eh, why is she back?" Xun Er also gave up on attacking after seeing Xiao Yan withdraw. She was quiet for a moment before she suddenly exclaimed.
"Who is it?" Xiao Yan was startled. He followed Xun Er's gaze and looked over. His brows slowly knit together.
In the direction of their gazes, a beautiful woman dressed in what appeared to be academy attire was leaning against a large tree. The beautiful woman had a long sword at her waist and her figure was quite tall. The most eye-catching thing was that pair of round and slender long legs. This pair of sexy long legs was something that even the enchanting Ya Fei did not possess.
"Xiao Yu?" Staring at the tall beauty, Xiao Yan frowned and said,"Didn't she go to the Jia Nan Academy to further her studies? Why are you back?"
Xun Er lovingly shrugged her shoulders. Suddenly, she turned her head and teased,"Xiao Yan ge-ge, you seem to be in trouble this time around.”
The corner of Xiao Yan's mouth cracked. He rubbed his somewhat painful forehead and cursed in a low voice,"This unruly woman is so annoying. F * ck, back then, I accidentally barged into the hot spring where she was bathing in the back mountain and then accidentally touched her big thigh. In the end, I was actually chased by this crazy woman for half a year.”
"Hehe, how can a girl's body be touched so casually?”Hearing this, Xun Er covered her mouth and giggled. She suddenly remembered that she had been touched by this fellow all over her body when she was young. Her exquisite little face could not help but be covered in a faint layer of alluring red.
Xiao Yan curled his lips and sneered,"This woman is Xiao Ning's sister. She's not a good person. She has her reasons for being so hostile to me."”
In the distance, Xiao Yu seemed to have sensed something. She turned her head and looked at Xiao Yan under the large tree. She was slightly startled and immediately frowned. A disdain and disgust flashed across her pretty eyes.
Hesitating for a moment, Xiao Yu moved her long and sexy legs and walked towards Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan similarly frowned when he saw her walking over. There was some disgust and impatience between his brows.
"Ha, Xiao Yan, it is really unexpected that you will still be able to make a comeback. It is really surprising.”Xiao Yu coldly laughed as she walked closer and saw the impatience on Xiao Yan's face that he was too lazy to hide.
"None of your business."
Xiao Yan clearly did not like Xiao Yu. His usual indifference was completely abandoned at this moment. He opened his mouth and cursed.
"Your mouth is still as crafty as ever. It seems that these three years of being down and out still haven't worn down your spirit.”Xiao Yu looked down at Xiao Yan and said in disdain. Her tone was like she was lecturing him from above.
"This tone again…" Sighing with extreme disgust in his heart, Xiao Yan tilted his head slightly and carefully sized up the woman he had not seen for a year. After which, his gaze slowly shifted to that pair of sexy and round long legs."Your legs are still so long. I wonder if any other man has touched them since that year?”
Hearing this, Xiao Yu, who was laughing coldly, immediately had a livid expression.
