Gao Songdeng cheered up again, "Xiao Ai is right, we should bless them."
Only Dulixi folded his arms across his chest and pursed his lips, rarely agreeing with Gao Songdeng's statement.

Outside the Toyokawa family residence.
Tian Nalin, dressed in a black suit, looked out at the Western-style house in the night ahead, never expecting that he would come to visit here one day.
Next to him, Xiangzi whispered with concern, "Tian Na-kun, are you nervous?"
"How is that possible? I, Miss Shangxianjuan's Smile, have never been nervous."
Xiangzi nodded with satisfaction and reached out to help him straighten the collar of his formal suit, his movements as gentle as those of a virtuous wife.
Tian Nalin looked down at the girl's cherry-colored lips, recalling the soft touch of the kiss not long ago, and had an urge to taste it again.
Xiangzi noticed his gaze, her fair face flushed slightly, and she withdrew her hand and said, "Tian Na-kun, please follow me."
"it is good."
Then the two of them passed through the lush and quiet courtyard planted with roses, arrived at the door of the large stone-brick villa, and entered.
It has to be said that the Toyokawa family is a traditional old family. Not only is their residence beautiful on the outside, but the interior decoration is also low-key, luxurious and meaningful. Even the servants are women with dignified temperament.
After changing their shoes at the entrance, which was about the same size as Akabane's rental house, the two were led by the servant through the spacious hall and into the reception room on the left side of the villa to drink some freshly brewed expensive tea.
After sitting for a while, a majestic blue-haired lady walked in from the study door on the other side. It was Xiangzi's biological mother.
Her beautiful blue hair was tied up in a bun, and her clothes were as low-key and luxurious as the style of the house. She looked very similar to Xiangzi, but her expression was more arrogant, and one could feel a sense of superiority that was engraved in her bones.
As soon as they met, Xiangzi pulled Tian Nalin up and greeted him.
"Greetings, Mother/Madam."
Hearing Tian Nalin's name, Xiangzi secretly tilted his head and glared at him, as if blaming him for his inappropriate choice of words.
Xiangzi's mother nodded in return and sat in the first seat with dignity, served by the servants. She did not care about the trivial matter of the address, or rather, she did not take Tian Nalin seriously.
After the three of them sat down again, the servant left the reception room.
Xiangzi's mother looked at Tian Nalin, raised her chin slightly and asked, "Is this the life partner you have chosen?"
Her voice was similar to what Tian Nalin had guessed. It reminded him of his serious and stern teacher in junior high school, who was full of stereotypes.
"Yes, mother."
Xiangzi bowed slightly and replied.
"Why did you choose him? Do you look down on those children from big families?"
"Love has no reason, just like you, mother, chose father."
Xiangzi's mother's expression tightened, and her tone became low. "It's because my original choice was problematic that I don't want you to make the same mistake as me."
"Tena-kun is different from my father. He wouldn't do something like that."
Xiangzi believed it without a doubt.
Hearing this, Xiangzi's mother raised the corners of her mouth slightly, as if she was sneering in disdain.
She took a sip from her teacup and spoke slowly, "From what I understand, you've only known each other for a few months. How can you be so sure? You know, people's hearts are fickle."
"Tenna-kun promised me that he would make me happy forever."
Xiangzi's mother put down her teacup and said disapprovingly: "Men's promises are always carefully fabricated to deceive women."
"Mother, I believe in Tenna-kun."
Xiangzi replied with a resolute expression.
Xiangzi's mother still disagreed with this, but she understood her daughter's stubborn character and that she would not give up until she saw the Yellow River.
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Yes, mother, please grant us your blessing and approve our marriage."
Xiangzi leaned forward and pleaded.
In today's world, District 11, which is seriously aging, has a rule that has not been abolished, that is, as long as you get the permission of your guardian and yourself, you can get married and have children at the age of 16.
Therefore, if Xiangzi and Tiannalin could get married quickly, she would openly escape the control of the Toyokawa family, creating a fait accompli.
This was one of the strategies Xiangzi came up with. After all, it would be awkward to use a woman who was already married and had children as a tool for marriage.
As for the family's pursuit of responsibility, Xiangzi has other ways to deal with it. The most important thing at the moment is how to convince her mother to agree.
Xiangzi's mother replied calmly, "What if I don't agree?"
"I'm sorry, mother."
Xiangzi held his head high and revealed another card. "If you refuse, I'll have no choice but to ask Miss Genmaki for help and ask her to help Tenna-kun and I immigrate to another country... I'm sure this is an outcome that Mother doesn't want to see."
Xiangzi's mother narrowed her eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in her pure golden pupils. "Are you threatening me?"
"Mother, I'm just discussing something with you."

Chapter 8 takes a surprising turn.
In the reception room of the Toyokawa family residence.
Looking at the confrontation between Fengchuan mother and daughter, Tian Nalin calmly tasted the fine black tea, and even had the leisure to secretly take the snacks on the table to taste them.
When he saw Xiangzi reveal his cards, he even wanted to laugh.
Teacher Daxiang is trying to bully others again. I wonder if her mother will be intimidated.
Hearing his inner voice, Xiangzi secretly glanced at him, as if to say, I will teach you a lesson after this matter is over.
Although Xiangzi's mother could not hear her daughter's inner thoughts, she judged that this must be a trick used by her daughter by observing the small interactions between the two and her rich negotiation experience.
So Xiangzi's mother smiled, and her smile was very bright, as beautiful as a rose blooming in the courtyard.
"You've really grown up. You actually used the methods I taught you to deal with me."
"Mother, I'm not bluffing. The Genmaki and Mizono families are indeed our friends."
Xiangzi replied calmly.
Perhaps this trick worked, or perhaps out of some concern, Xiangzi's mother's attitude softened instantly, "I understand, I won't interfere with your choice anymore."
A trace of surprise flashed across Xiangzi's face. She didn't expect her mother to be so easy to talk to.
"Thank you, mother!"
She quickly pulled Tian Nalin to thank him.
"Don't thank me yet. I have my conditions. I won't agree to your marriage until you're 18. You must keep the Toyokawa family name."
Xiangzi's mother said seriously: "If you two are not on good terms in the future, or if this person makes the same mistake again, you must return to the Toyokawa family and accept the family's arrangements."
"I won't let that happen, Mother."
Xiangzi spoke in a firm tone.
Xiangzi's mother did not comment on this, but picked up the teacup and took a sip in an elegant manner.
Then Xiangzi became worried about another problem. She had made such a big fuss that most people in the Toyokawa family must have known about it. What if the family disagreed?
"Don't worry about that. I will go and convince Father and the others."
Xiangzi's mother guessed her daughter's concerns and spoke to comfort her, "The Toyokawa family has so many children, they don't need one more. As long as we give up enough benefits, it will be fine."
"Mother...thank you."
Xiangzi looked extremely touched, because it turned out that the other party had always loved him.
Tian Nalin was very relieved to see that the mother and daughter had put aside their past grudges. It was true that blood relatives could not be so cold and heartless.
Xiangzi's mother ordered her daughter: "Go out now. I have something to say to him."
"Yes, Mother."
Although Xiangzi was a little worried, she knew that this was a test that she had to endure. Before leaving, she gave Tian Nalin a look that reminded her to "remember to speak nicely."
[Xiaoxiang, just go with peace of mind. I will take care of your mother.] Tian Nalin smiled back.
Hearing this, Xiangzi became even more worried. His movements slowed down noticeably, and he was considering whether to find an excuse to stay.
Seeing this, Xiangzi's mother teased: "What's wrong? Are you so reluctant to part with your person?"
"No, Mother."
Xiangzi bowed and closed the door to give the two of them space to talk.
After her daughter left, Xiangzi's mother looked at Tian Nalin straight in the eye.
"You're Tian Nalin, right? My name is Toyokawa Michiko. Xiaoxiang should have introduced me to you, so I'll keep it short."
"Please speak."
Michiko crossed her hands on her lower abdomen, changed her sitting position and said, "I don't know what means you used to bewitch my daughter so much... but don't let me find out that you have any ill intentions towards the Toyokawa family."
"Auntie, you're worrying too much. I have absolutely no interest in the Toyokawa family."
"Wait until you've experienced money and power before you tell me that."
Michiko spoke with the air of someone who had experienced it, with a hint of disdain in her expression.
"Ok."
Tian Nalin couldn't refute it, he really had never experienced it.
"I heard you're also the producer of another girl band?"
Michiko asked again.
"Yes."
Seeing him admit it frankly, Michiko asked: "I need you to stay away from those girls and stop getting entangled with them like before. Can you do that?"
"I'm sorry, I can't do that."
"how much is it?"
Tian Nalin shook his head. "This isn't about money, because I've already made a promise with everyone. We're going to form a lifelong band."
"Another heavy promise like this? Young people these days really don't understand how long a lifetime is."
Although Michiko expressed disgust, her expression softened a little.
"Mrs. Toyokawa, you are actually very young too."
Tian Nalin said with a smile, "If I hadn't known your identity in advance, I would have thought you were Xiangzi's sister."
"Humph."
Michiko snorted coldly, "According to seniority, you should call me aunt."
"I personally think that old-fashioned name doesn't suit you..."
Seeing that the topic was getting off track, Michiko interrupted and said, "Okay, stop complimenting me and let's get down to business."
"Please continue."
"Xiao Xiang told me that you were planning to start your own record company, right?"
"Yes."
"I want to invest in this company and become the first shareholder."
Michiko preached in a tone that brooked no refusal.
Tian Nalin pondered for a few seconds and said, "I can promise you, but you must also promise me that you will not interfere with the company's daily operations."
"Do you know who you're bargaining with?"
"Future mother-in-law?"
Tian Nalin asked knowingly.
"hehe."
Michiko sneered, "I hope you understand what you are doing."
