So Nangong Xi decided to go out and wander around the City of All Things to find the location of the Water-Fire Array first.

Nangong Xi did what he said and directly summoned a flying monster to fly around in the City of All Things.

If someone asked her, she would say that she was just bored and wanted to go for a walk.

Nangong Xi and Lu Qi walked around Wanwu City.

Not finding anything unusual during this period, she and the others turned around and returned to Zhou's house.

When Nangong Xi and the others returned to Zhou's house, it had already darkened.

"Xixi. Come here and have dinner." Seeing Nangong Xixi coming back, Zhou Lurou immediately ran over to pull her to eat.

"Xixi, why didn't you wait for us to come back when you wanted to go out and play?" Zhou Luqi on the side looked at Nangong Xi.

"Aren't you guys busy? I can just take a look around by myself." Nangong Xi said while eating.

"By the way, is there any more secret place in Wanwu City?" Nangong Xi looked at Zhou Lurou and the others.

"A secret place? Then the most secret place is the ancestral hall in Wanwu City." Zhou Lurou replied.

Nangong Xi sighed inwardly when he heard this.

Today, Lu Qi and I sneaked into the ancestral hall of Wanwu City to investigate, but found nothing.

.......

In the blink of an eye, it was Zhou Lurou's birthday.

The City Lord's Mansion has been handed over, and the Strange Man's House has opened successfully.

Zhou Lurou’s birthday this time was held in the City Lord’s Mansion.

Lu Qi looked at the bustling scene of people coming and going in the City Lord's Mansion and felt deeply moved.

I remember that because the Zhou family fell into defeat, my sister’s birthday was simply celebrated at the Zhou family.

Because Jiang Yin did not go home, grandpa was the only one to accompany my elder sister on her birthday.

Zhou Luqi felt guilty about this incident for a long time afterwards.

Now I have finally made up for the regret.

Now that Zhou Lurou is the eldest daughter of the City Lord’s Mansion, naturally many people come to congratulate her on her birthday.

Even the owners of Yibaozhai and Wanwu Restaurant, who had always looked down upon the City Lord's Mansion, came.

Everyone was very surprised by this.

Nangong Xi was arranged to sit next to Zhou Luqi, which was naturally a very front position.

As soon as the banquet started, Hua Mu from the Hua family couldn't wait to give Zhou Lurou the birthday gift he had carefully prepared.

Zhou Lurou’s identity is different now.

She was no longer a young lady from a declining family. Not only had her family risen again, but she also had the identity of the eldest daughter of the City Lord's Mansion.

At this time, Hua Mu deeply regretted that he had broken off the engagement with Zhou Lurou on impulse.

"Rou'er, this is a thousand-year-old jade green. It's just the right match for you." After Hua Mu said this, he looked at Zhou Lurou with tenderness on his face.

Seeing this, Zhou Lurou snorted coldly and turned away with disgust.

I didn't invite him to my birthday party at all, but I didn't expect him to be so shameless and come up to me.

"Thank you, Mr. Hua. Please take a seat." Seeing that his granddaughter ignored Hua Mu, Mr. Zhou had to speak up.

When Hua Mu saw Zhou Lurou's attitude, he knew that she was still angry about his previous breakup with her. It seemed that he had to take it slow.

"Miss Nangong, thank you for your marrow cleansing pill, which helped me get rid of my useless physique." A young man in green clothes walked up to Nangong Xi.

He was Liu Zhao, the son of the owner of Wanwu Restaurant.

"Are you the son of the owner of Wanwu Restaurant?" Nangong Xi raised his head and looked at Liu Zhao when he heard that.

"Yes, my name is Liu Zhao." Liu Zhao is a young man as gentle as jade.

"Congratulations, Mr. Liu." Nangong Xi looked at him with a smile when he heard that.

"Thanks to Miss Nangong's medicine." Liu Zhao smiled and said.

At this moment, Nangong Xi discovered that the young masters from various forces were all showing their courtesy to Zhou Lurou.

"Mr. Liu, have you prepared a gift?" Nangong Xi turned and looked at Liu Zhao.

"Since you're here to attend the banquet, of course I've made preparations." Liu Zhao nodded.

"What do you think of Sister Zhou?" Nangong Xi looked at Liu Zhao with shining eyes.

"Miss Zhou is gentle and generous, and she knows when to advance and retreat. Naturally, she is very good." Liu Zhao's face flushed when he heard this.

I still remember that when I was bullied for being useless, Miss Zhou stood in front of me and helped me.

Nangong Xi saw that there was a chance. If Sister Zhou and Liu Zhao could be together, then Wanwu Restaurant would naturally help the City Lord's Mansion in the future.

"Sister Zhou, Young Master Liu Zhao has come to send a gift. He prepared it carefully." Nangong Xi shouted to Zhou Lurou who was not far away.

The originally noisy banquet suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked in the direction of Nangong Xi and the others.

When Liu Zhao saw Nangong Xi's actions, he was completely confused!

"Mr. Liu, you have a lot of competitors. It depends on you whether you can stand out." Nangong Xi whispered to Liu Zhao.

Liu Zhao was stunned when he heard this!

It turned out that Miss Nangong saw that he was in love with Miss Zhou, so she was ready to help him.

"I will try my best." Liu Zhao nodded firmly.

Maybe other people want to pursue Zhou Lurou because of her identity, but not me.

Before, he didn't dare to propose marriage because he was a loser. It was hard enough for Zhou Lurou to take care of Zhou Luqi, a loser.

I don't want to be a burden to her anymore.

But now that I can practice, I also have the courage to pursue Zhou Lurou.

When Mr. Liu, the shopkeeper of Wanwu Restaurant, saw this scene, he smiled.

I am also very optimistic about Zhou Lurou. If my son can marry her, I will naturally be happy to see it happen.

Liu Zhao took out the gift he had carefully prepared and walked in front of Zhou Lurou.

"Miss Zhou, this is the Warm Jade Branch. I spent a long time looking for it. I hope you don't dislike it." After saying this, Liu Zhao looked at Zhou Lurou with some worry in his eyes. He was afraid that Zhou Lurou would reject him.

Although I can practice, my strength is still not high after all.

"Oh, I wish to be a pair of wings in the sky and a pair of branches on the ground. What a great gift, such a thoughtful gift." Nangong Xi said loudly upon seeing this.

Zhou Lurou blushed when she heard Nangong Xi's explanation of Liu Zhao's gift.

"Thank you, Mr. Liu. I like this gift very much." Zhou Lurou accepted the birthday gift from Liu Zhao.

To be more precise, it is a confession gift.

Liu Zhao's eyes lit up when he saw this.

"Hahaha... City Lord Zhou, it looks like today is a good day." Shopkeeper Liu laughed and looked at Old Man Zhou, obviously in a very happy mood.

"Yes, it is indeed a good day." Mr. Zhou also nodded with a smile.

"City Lord Zhou, I think Zhao'er and Miss Zhou are a perfect match. Why don't we settle the marriage today?" Shopkeeper Liu said happily.

"Is it too fast?" Mr. Zhou hesitated.

"No, no, this silly boy of mine has been longing for Miss Zhou for a long time. It's just that I didn't dare to dream about it before because of my useless physique. I just don't know what Miss Zhou thinks?" After saying this, Shopkeeper Liu looked at Zhou Lurou.

"I don't agree." Before Zhou Lurou could say anything, Hua Mu jumped out anxiously.

"Who do you think you are? Get out of here." The shovel appeared in Shopkeeper Liu's hand again and he directly slapped Hua Mu away with the shovel.
