Only when Eugene was already about to take her hand back did she pulled it back with a smile.

She said with a wink and without wasting another minute, she got up from her bed, still on her nightgown.

It did not take that long before the two arrived at the backyard.

The big full moon was hung high above the dark night sky illuminating the pavement with its pale glow.

He carefully scans all faces present in the hall until it landed on Mu Lingxi and he smiles slightly.When the old man was sure that everyone is already present, he stands up and started the meeting.

    The morning sunray that went through the blinds of her window, forced Ai Hee out from her dreamland.It was so bright that when she opened her eyes, it almost blinded her."Hey! Close the window, what do you want?!"With a groggy head, she inquired at her cat; because when she tried to peaked through her half closed eyes, she saw her cat seating next to their window.Most likely than not, it was the other party who opened the window, with an intention to wake her."MEOW"[ It's time to wake up little lass. Your grandfather has been waiting for you since the break of dawn he and had been sending Yanyan to fetch you. But you simply would not bulge from that bed of yours. ]Nero replied while lazily stretching his back."AHRGG! give five more minutes!"Ai Hee mumbled as she slumped back to her bed and covered her head using one of her pillows.

    "MEOW"[ Let us just forget what we heard. We can just pretend that we don't know where it came from right?]her cat tried to console her but they both feel like they were coyed.Mu Lingxi ignored his cat and instead look at Yanyan who was eating something that resembles Pringles."And what was that made from?"

It was leisurely chipped away from a CINCHONA TREE" Yanyan unhurriedly answered as she takes a bite from the chip.Mu Lingxi finds it more acceptable to eat so she decided to give it a try. It tasted like Piattos' roadhouse barbeque." I never thought that a simple bark of a tree-like this can turn to be a delectable food in this place." Mu Lingxi exclaimed.Yanyan wonders why her young miss acts so strange. It was as if it was her first time knowing this kind of food.Nevertheless, she never doubted

    Meanwhile, when Abby heard the other party's abrupt accusation towards her, she was flabbergasted."Mine?! How come it became my fault?! I don't even have an idea that you are cooking here until we heard the explosion."Abby rebutted but Eugene only used her same words against her."Precisely! And that is your biggest mistake.
