Chapter 157: 157: Grandpa Xia and Grandma Hialun's New Home (1)

Chapter 157: 157: Grandpa Xia and Grandma Hialun's New Home (1) Yue Jixia's issue had been successfully resolved. With enough evidence, Ruan Shasha and Meng Xiyi were to be imprisoned for 10 years and 6 years, respectively. As for President Ruan, he didn't do anything to bail his daughter or to plead with Yue Xuexia, as he himself was shocked when he saw the evidence of the evil things his beloved daughter had done while he was working hard for her future. He was devastated and even personally apologized to Yue Jixia and compensated all the victims his daughter had harmed. Even though he wasn't welcomed by the families of the victim, he persevered and did as he must. After the scandal of his daughter was learned by the families and clans in the upper society, his three-star hotel was almost bankrupt, and he was boycotted by these families, making it hard for him to continue his business in the country. After talking with his daughter in jail for a day, he flew abroad after making arrangements for his daughter. Ruan Shasha promised her father that she would stay in jail until her sentence was over and agreed to her father going abroad, where he would choose to start another business after their hotel was sold. The Seven Seas Century Hotel had closed down and was replaced by Yue Xuexia for Yue Jixia. Her second sister didn't want to fight for the authority in the Crowned Regent Hotel as their cousins from Fu and Lin Clan were mostly working in that place. It was already crowded, and she wanted to try standing for herself alone. Learning that her sister still wanted to work in a hotel, Yue Xuexia sold the Seven Seas Century Hotel to President Ruan at market price. Though the original stock of this hotel had decreased a lot, she still bought it at the last available price and paid $20 million for it. Afterward, she left money and people to support her sister Yue Jixia, as she planned to renovate the whole place and make it another money-making hotel for her elder sister. When Yue Ruxia heard about this, she was jealous of her second sister and grabbed her elder sister to ask for a hotel too. Her forehead flicked in response to her query. Yue Xuexia said, "Graduate first and pass your licensure exam, then I will give you a bank to play with." Upon hearing that, the gloominess of Yue Ruxia's mood had completely brightened, and she couldn't wait for her graduation day to arrive. --- Mama Yue and Papa Yue didn't go home for a few months, and the siblings had only received a video call from them the next day. It seems that Mama Yue, Papa Yue, Grandpa Xia, and Grandma Hialun ended up using her cruise ship to play around the world. After hearing about this, the Yue siblings didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Yue Jixia commented after seeing the video. "They are enjoying themselves." "If not for the graduation practice, I would have gone with them too," said Yue Ruxia. Yue Xuexia said, "You want to become a light bulb between the couples." They had never expected that Grandpa Xia was an adventurous old man and wanted to go around the world just for fun. Grandma Hialun, who isn't fond of touring, had no other choice but to accompany her old man. As for Mama Yue and Papa Yue, they obviously wanted to enjoy a world for two and accompany the old couple on their tour. Yue Xuexia wasn't that worried about them. First of all, Tan Bingyu had reported that some Mystic Guardian bodyguards had left the country to protect the two couples. Moreover, the old man himself is a cultivator at Innateness State, They should be fine unless a nuke falls on their heads. The siblings were spending their weekends at home and obviously had no intention of leaving the house. For these three siblings, as long as there isn't any work to do, staying at home is the only thing they want to do. Moreover, if work can be brought home, they would as well. Like how Yue Jixia welcomed the group of building architects and interior designers Yue Xuexia hired for her. They started working on it at home with no problems. Yue Ruxia, on the other hand, had just finished her graduation practice and was waiting for her graduation day to arrive. While Yue Jixia welcomed her guests in the mansion's study hall, Yue Ruxia and Yue Xuexia, together with Taiyang and Tan Bingyu, were in the theater room holding a bucket of popcorn, a few boxes of chicken wings, nachos, and fries. They plan to watch the latest airing movies at home as a group. This is one of their usual family bonding activities when they are at the mansion. Yue Ruxia, while watching movies, suddenly asked, "Dajie, you're going to attend my graduation, right?" "I will. Since Ma and Pa are outside the country, I will march with you on your graduation day." "Hehe~ that's great!" exclaimed Yue Ruxia. Yue Xuexia added, "If Erjie agrees, the three of us can walk together." "But Erjie is too busy. Can she attend my graduation?" asked Yue Ruxia. Yue Xuexia said, "Resting for a day would destroy her hotel. She will definitely come." "Wow~ I have a feeling that I might get everyone's attention on my graduation day if you two are the ones walking with me during the graduation march!" said Yue Xuexia. All of a sudden, Tan Bingyu's phone rang. It was a call from the main gate of the subdivision. When she returned, she informed her mistress about the issue of the sudden guest. Tan Bingyu said, "Mistress, Elder Kun had come to visit. It seems to have something to do with the house of your grandparents." "Is that mansion constructed already?" asked Yue Ruxia. Taiyang said, "Your elder sister poured enough money to have it constructed as soon as possible. A few months had already passed; maybe it was completely constructed already." "I want to see grandpa and grandma's mansion!" said Yue Ruxia. Yue Xuexia thought for a while and said to Tan Bingyu. "Tell the guards to escort Grandpa Kun to the mansion." "As you wish, Mistress!" said Tan Bingyu. The four of them waited in the living room until Grandpa Kun finally arrived in the mansion. This old man was from the same generation as Grandpa Xia, and the Yue siblings treated him as a close friend of their grandpa and treated him as their other grandpa, not connected by blood. Elder Kun, who was bringing gifts, had entered the mansion. "I heard that Elder Xia went touring with his wife around the world. He told me to leave the things about his mansion to you guys. Here. Keep these gifts. I picked it all for you guys." Yue Ruxia and Yue Xuexia greet Elder Kun as a family elder, while Tan Bingyu treats him as a senior cultivator, while Taiyang doesn't care about him and only takes the food he brought for him and sits back down on the sofa and starts eating. After the greetings were over, all of them sat on the couch. Elder Kun finally informed them why he had come to the mansion at this time. Elder Kun said, "The mansion had been built and the interior was also done, but I don't know exactly what kind of things are supposed to be inside the mansion. There is also a formation around the house. I wanted to invite you guys to check if there are things that must be changed. Elder Xia said to ask you about this as they couldn't go home at the moment. If you are not busy, do you wish to come over and check the place now?" "Let's go! I want to see the mansion of grandpa and grandma!" said Yue Ruxia. Yue Xuexia also didn't mind going, but she wanted to ask if Yue Jixia wanted to come. So she can only ask the youngest to go ask. This is a habit of hers. "Ruru, go ask your Erjie if she wants to come. We can all go together after that," said Yue Xuexia. Yue Ruxia only nodded her head and ran to the study hall. Elder Kun happily looked at the young lady, who is full of energy and innocence, which is completely different from the arrogant youngsters in the cultivation realm. Elder Kun said, "You sisters are also quite talented. They had just begun cultivating, but they had already reached mid-level stages of Qi refinement. Elder Xia's bloodline is truly amazing!" Tan Bingyu couldn't agree more with this elder's words. After all, she had witnessed her mistress become a cultivator from a mortal and how she broke through from the Peak Qi Refinement Stage to Innateness Stage. That was the night when the sun had appeared beside the moon. The scene was too much for her to forget what happened that night. That was also the day her mistress officially became an Innateness Cultivator and is one of the youngest in this mortal realm. When Yue Ruxia returned, she had changed her clothes and wore shorts and suspenders paired with a hat and rubber shoes. Yue Ruxia said, "Dajie, Erjie said she won't go. She can just visit the mansion with Ma and Pa next time. Well, they were actually excessively busy leaving the study hall." "That is also alright. Let's go," said Yue Xuexia. The four of them drive out of the Moonlight Lake Mansion using the Rolls-Royce Dawn of Yue Xuexia. It only took a few hours to reach the mansion of the old couple, as they intentionally chose a mountain not far from the district where the Yue family lives. As soon as they drive up the mountain, a mist blocks the road towards the peak, which startles Yue Ruxia in the car. Among them, only she wasn't proficient with formations like this, which caused hallucinations and illusions. Tan Bingyu, who was driving, suddenly stopped the car at the boundary where the mist was scattered. She observed the mist and said, "Is this the Yin-Yang defensive formation array?" "Good eyes, child. Indeed, this is the Yin-Yang defensive formation array. Anyone who got lost in it would come out after suffering from a nightmare if they had bad thoughts as they entered the formation. If they are good, they will be sent to the foot of the mountain instead," said Elder Kun. Taiyang said, "As long as the mist was dispersed even for a second, everything would be exposed. You should add at least two more defensive arrays, as this thing won't be enough." "The Young Lord is correct, but we haven't decided what to place after it. Elder Xia can't choose whether to use a poison array or a corrosive one," said Elder Kun. Yue Xuexia said, "As long as it wasn't active when mortals and the other family members are around, either of the two is useful. Make sure it won't affect the ones who will be living inside. Granny used to be a mortal like me. Her knowledge in formations is almost nonexistent." "Hm, that's what actually made your grandfather worried, so he is opposed to using poison and corrosion at first. It was just that the Starfield Sect had too many enemies, so the defensive arrays must be powerful enough to block even an innateness stage enemy," said Elder Kun. Taiyang said, "I know a lot of formations. We can choose later for now. Open the path and let's go to the mansion first." Elder Kun accepted this suggestion and brought out a token with the character Xia written on it. After chanting a few words, the mist split in half, leaving a safe path for them to pass through. Yue Ruxia is amazed by such a scene while Tan Bingyu drives forward without hesitation. Yue Ruxia said, "Grandpa Kun, that's amazing! Is this formation? Can I learn it? "Is Ruru interested in learning formation? It can be done as long as you have good memory and fast calculations," said Elder Kun with a doting smile. He had long treated the Yue siblings no different from his real grandchildren. Well, he is actually an orphan with only Elder Xia as family, so he had no family. Yue Xuexia said, "Grandpa Kun, you can teach her. Her math is good, so she should be able to learn." "That's right, Grandpa Kun. I can learn!" said Yue Ruxia as she patted her chest proudly. Elder Kun laughs and says, "Okay. I will teach you formation."
