The rain was pouring, the fog was filled with mist, and the sorrow and joy mixed with the sound of rain disrupted everyone's mood.

The Xia family yard in Jiangcheng was crowded with people, wearing mourning clothes, but only Xia Xinuo knelt alone in front of Mr. Xia’s spirit.

She looked at her grandfather lying in the coffin with tears in her eyes. Her grandfather seemed to be asleep, calm and peaceful, but she knew that the only grandfather who protected her in the family was no longer there. Thinking of this, her heart was like a knife, and tears fell down like a pearl with broken threads.

At the age of ten, she sent her father away, at the age of nineteen, she wanted to bid farewell to her grandfather again, and in just nine years, she lost two close relatives.

“A guest is here!”

Xia Xinuo looked up and saw a young man wearing a gray Haiqing lay Buddhist uniform and wearing short hair walked in.

His figure is thin and upright, and his steps are gentle, like a ripe orchid, beautiful and beautiful tree, with bright wind and clear moon, and his indescribable dignity and elegance. What is even more amazing is that it was so heavy that it rained outside, and there was no rain on his long gown.

The Xia family followed closely behind. Before they could come forward to greet him, the man had already taken the incense from Zhibin's hand, bowed three times, inserted it into the incense burner.

Xia Xun, the second son of the Xia family, came over with a flattering look on his face, but the man didn't even look at him. He put his hands together, his eyes lowered, and he recited the scriptures.

He recited Sanskrit, and Xia Xinuo didn't understand a single sentence.

After reciting a passage of scripture, the man slowly opened his eyes. Just as the second son of the Xia family was about to speak, the man lowered his eyes and looked at Xia Xinuo who was still kneeling on the ground.

Xia Xinuo was adding oil to the eternal lamp and missed his slightly complicated look.

"Xia Xinuo."

After being called by a stranger, Xia Xinuo looked up in shock and met his gaze.

Her breathing tightened, and she had a graceful face! It was just something that flashed in his eyes that made her unable to grasp it, but she wanted to peek at it.

He squatted down and took out a black and gold business card from his hair's green shirt, "This is my business card. If you encounter difficulties in the future, call me."

Xia Xinuo looked at the business card he handed over suspiciously, with nothing else on the business card except the two words "Li Xiao" and a string of mobile phone numbers.

Although there is no title on his business card, she can tell from the awe-inspiring look of the Xia family that this person is definitely not an ordinary person, so she is a little confused. He is too lazy to even pay attention to his second uncle, so why should he give her a business card?

Xia Xinuo's two cousins ​​looked at the black and gold business card with jealousy. This is the business card of Li Xiao, a proud son in the capital. There are less than ten people who can get his business card, but this fool refused to accept it for a long time. Wouldn't she be afraid of offending the noble guests?

"Sino, take the business card!"

The second uncle scolded, and Xia Xinuo quickly took the business card over.

Li Xiao pulled down his short hair with some displeasure, got up, raised his foot and was about to walk out.

The second son of the Xia family hurriedly chased after him, "Jiu Master, please rest in the hall."

Xia Xiu, the third elder of the Xia family, also followed, "Master Jiu, go and rest for a while, and the banquet will start soon."

Li Xiao frowned impatiently, "No need."

"But it's raining outside..."

Before the second son of the Xia family could finish his words, Li Xiao had already arrived at the door. The person guarding outside quickly held up an umbrella to cover him up.

The Xia family picked up the rain gear one after another, and the whole family went out to send Li Xiao out in a hurry.

The guests who came to Xia’s family to attend the funeral were all savages. Seeing that the Xia family was so humble and gave a young man, they knew that this young man was definitely not simple, and they all followed him.

Li Xiao was very tired of this kind of scene and whispered with his entourage, and the two of them accelerated their pace.

The entourage protected Li Xiao onto a Rolls-Royce Phantom, and then stopped everyone who was seeing him off. After Li Xiao's car drove away, the entourage took out an envelope and handed it to the second child of the Xia family.

"Jiu Ye said, please fill in the college entrance examination application as written on it. No matter which university she is admitted to in the future, the fee will be paid by Mr. Jiu. Mr. Jiu also asked me to tell you something, saying that Colonel Xia Kai has kind to him, please treat the only flesh and blood left by him."

After the man finished speaking, he turned to the bodyguard car.

Before the car could drive far away, Xia Baolian snatched the envelope from her father and pulled out the A4 paper inside, "Kyoto University of Technology and Business, Kyoto Business School, Kyoto Business School, Kyoto Business Administration College... Dad, what does he mean? Does he want that fool to return from studying and take over our Xia family's industry?"

"What are you talking nonsense?" The second son of the Xia family winked at his daughter and signaled that there were outsiders there.

Xia Baolian also realized her loss of composure and snatched the umbrella from the lower-class person and walked towards the mourning hall.

The guests didn't have time to care about what a little girl said in a movie. After she left, she slapped the second and third brothers of the Xia family and asked Li Xiao about the origin.

When the second son of the Xia family proudly said the six words "Kyoto Li Family Ninth Master", the audience was in an uproar.

The Li family is the largest family in Kyoto. Many Li clan members hold important positions in China, and the Li family's industries are even more spread all over the world. The current Li family needs fame and profit.

The old patriarch Li got a son at the age of fifty. This old son was Li Xiao. Because he had a high seniority and had eight sisters on him, he was respected as Master Jiu at a young age.

This prince of Li was raised in his hand. No one dared to say that he was not a word since he was a child, so he did a lot of trouble later and was a famous little overlord in Beijing. However, from when Li Xiao gradually withdrew from everyone's sight, and people could no longer hear anything about him.

Today, Li Xiao, who has not appeared in public for so many years, suddenly appeared at Mr. Xia’s funeral, which shows that the Li family and the Xia family have a close relationship. The guests who came to attend the funeral think they are right. As long as they hug the Xia family’s thighs, they are not afraid of not being able to board the Li family’s ship.

While everyone was secretly happy, Xia Xinuo was already forced into a corner by Xia Baolian in the mourning hall.

"Don't force me to move, give me that business card!"

Xia Xinuo's little face as big as a palm still had tears on his face, but his aura was still pointed at the brazier without diminishing, "I want to get the business card by myself!"

Xia Baolian held the a4 paper and pointed at her nose, "Xia Xinuo, do you think I am a fool? Will you be willing to throw things that others can't ask for in the brazier?"

"What do I want to bear to leave?" Xia Xinuo raised his hand and slapped her hand away, "The things you can't ask for are not worth the penny of mine!"

Xia Baolian rubbed the back of her hands and gritted her teeth and said, "Xia Xinuo, grandpa is gone. No one in this family can protect you anymore. You don't have a tail between your legs and you dare to shout to me. Are you impatient to live!"

Xia Xinuo's face gradually changed color, his eyebrows were twisted together, and his beautiful almond eyes burst out with sharp light like a knife. She shouted loudly: "Wrong! It is because my grandfather is gone that I have to stand up and look up as a human being! Xia Baolian, I have been afraid that my grandfather will be difficult to do in the past few years, so I gave in to you in everything. From now on, you can try touching me again!"
